HA TOIT SI, THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1933 ; : FARMERS UNION MAN California Wine Gurgles Dirge for Prohibition {QR JOHN SIMON IN | CUT-Lass WOULD PUT EMBARGO = a PERSONAL DISPUTE. ing Novak's father, John, 19 years ago, but Marinette county authorities ON ALL FOODSTUFFS} - Says Drastic Action Such as That Already Taken Needed to Awaken Nation Jamestown, N. D., Oct. 18—(P— Governor William Langer’s embargo Proclamation was termed Wednesday by E. E. Greene, secretary of the North Dakota Farmers Union, as “much more to the point than the Juggling of farmers debts from one Joan to another.” __Greene said he would favor extend- ing the embargo to all farm prod- ucts, declaring *“‘some drastic action such as has been taken by Governor Langer is necessary to shock the sen- sibilities of those who are not famil- iar with agricultural conditions to a realization of the destruction of agri- culture.” “I am in favor of any move that will bring returns to the producers approaching the cost of production,” Greene said. “I wish the embargo could be extended to all farm prod- ucts, Measures Not Effective : “Chickens at four to five cents, ducks at three cents, turkeys at seven cents, butterfat at 20 cents and three- cent hogs, all of which are lower than as of March 4, together with the recent violent drop in the grain market, indicates that the govern- ment at Washington is not using ef- fective means of helping agriculture. ‘Therefore, it is perfectly in order for our governor to take such steps as will prevent our farmers from dispo- sition of their products at such ruin- ous prices. “These prices mean that the farmer neither has his products nor any proceeds.” ‘This year’s poor crop, together with inereased debts, more delinquent taxes, further depreciated equipment “and above all apparent acquiescence of the government in ever increas- ing disparity between agriculture and industry,” Green said, “has been a morale.” “Some have developed hatred, re- sentment and bitterness, others are dangerously desperate,” he said. “A large percentage are ready to quit. Living standards are continually low- ered with particularly destructive ef- rects upon the young people on farms.” MAY ASK GOV. OLSON TO ACT IN MINNESOTA St. Paul, Oct. 18—(#)—Minnesota Farmers Union officials said Wed- nesday they may ask Governor Floyd B. Olson to declare an embargo on export of any agricultur’l products érom the state. Governor Olson said, however, he did not believe an embargo would be effective in raising prices, which the Farmers’ Union leaders said was the aim. He questioned also whether he had legal authority to order a ban. The attorney general’s office said it would not rule on the issue unless asked for a formal opinion. Farmers Union leaders said mak- ing the request of the governor was under consideration and would be ta- ken up at the organization's conven- tion at Granite Falls November 2. They took this step as a result of Governor William Langer’s embargo on wheat shipments from North Da- kota, becomes effective at 12:01 a. m. Thursday.

Smith has a cold—and politi- cal observers were running a fever Wednesday trying to figure out the probable effect on Tam- many Hall's health.

Mc- Cocey, the “Hall's” Brooklyn ally. RUBBER COMPANY Is PLACED UNDER FIRE Goodyear Gave Preference to Sears Roebuck Washington, Oct. 18.—(#)—The civic and service clubs.

The case is the result of a request of Edward H. Foley, Jr., assistant general counsel of the public works administration at Washington, from which Fargo is seeking the funds, who ‘asked city officials that a taxpayers case be brought and pushed through the supreme court as rapidly as pos- sible. The hearing in district court was before Judge P. G. Swenson of Grand Forks, who has entered a decree de- nying Ed. C.

Sir John headed Great Britain's! delegation at the world disarmament conference which recessed until Oc- tober 26 after Germany's withdrawal. Herr Von Neurath is Germany's foreign minister. Wednesday, the ‘effect the contro- versy—in which each challenges the word of the other—may have on the Political careers of the two men in their respective countries and also on future Anglo-German relations, was awaited with widespread interest. In a speech Tuesday night in which he charged that Germany was “jeo- pardizing if not wrecking” the cause of disarmament, Sir John repeatedly referred to what he termed Von Neu- rath’s statement that he (Simon) was “spreading untruthful statements” about the German foreign minister and “false views” of Germany's ar- mament demands. At one point in his address, Sir John said he was ready to “publish records and documents” to show he was right. Later, he declared he had refreshed his memory by looking up the docu- ments and found he was “absolutely right.” He even called upon Norman H. Davis, head of the American delega- tion at Geneva, as a witness that he was telling the truth and that Von Neurath was accusing him unjustly. | Baldwin By MRS. FLORENCE BORNER The Crofte Star Homemakers club met Wednesday afternoon at the home {of Mrs, William Fricke, Jr., one-half mile north of Baldwin. The lesson: “Getting the most out of the food dollar” was given by the project lead- ers, Mrs. Arthur Meyer and Mrs. Carl Landerholm.

E. Smith, deputy director of the state regulatory department. Inspec- tors of the department find the num- ber of violations of the cigarette li- cense law more common in towns along the border of the state than those in the central part, Smith said. Several dealers have pleaded guilty and paid fines recently, Smith said, and several others have been bound over to the district court upon their refusal to admit their guilt before justice of the peace. The minimum fine that can be assessed for violati of the law is $100 and the maximum | $300, The fines go to the school funds of the state. i. “It would seem the average dealer }would rather pay the tax than the fine, Smith said, “because the mini- mum fine of $100 will buy a lot of ll- cense stamps and in several instances judges have assessed the maximum fine recently.” Not all the violations are confined to small towns, Smith declared, and there are a number of cased now Pending in Fargo, Grand Forks and Minot. Bismarck has been remark- ably free from violations, due perhaps to the fact that the regulatory de- partment is located here and dealers are more afraid of being caught than in the smaller towns. The department receives letters every day regarding violations of the law, but people giving the information are unwilling to sign a complaint for the dealer's arrest. “In that case the department has to depend upon the inspector being able to pay a surprise visit to the dealer and try to make a ing the road east of Baldwin for the purpose of widening and improving this road. It is expected to have around 100 men working on this road in the early future, and that the im- |proved road will extend six miles or |more east of Baldwin. Those employ- ed on the road will represent the ineedy of the county and practically all the work will be done by men with wheelbarrows. Mr. and Mrs. Herman Meyer spent the week-end with relatives at Turtle ‘Lake. | Mrs. Ira Falkenstein will leave soon on @ motor trip to Los Angeles, San Francisco and other points in Call- fornia and the West Coast. She will be accompanied by her sister, Mrs. ‘Herman Falkenstein of Bismarck. They expect to be away several months. Local friends of Miss Gertrude Schroeder of Anamoose will be in- terested in hearing of her recent mar- jrlage to John Gierke of Bismarck. Miss Schroder is the daughter of | Fred Schroeder, local farmer. She has |been making her home with her sis- ter, Mrs. Walter Browning at Ana- moose for the past year. Ginevra was the young Italian bride who hid in a chest with a spring lock during the wedding festivities and who was not found until her body had become a skeleton. i { I want to comply with the law and wear whatever is necessary.—: Rand, re x buy where the stamps are not at- tached. The trouble with that method is that dealers soon get to know who the inspectors are and are very care- ful about having license stamps at- tached to packages as long as they are in town,” he said.
