She contended that she was being underpaid and was required to work Jonger hours than the law permits. i The lawyer called the minimum wage bureau in the North Dakota workmen's bureau to inquire if it could assist in the matter. ‘The answer, after & vain hunt within the bureau to find someone who knew something about it, was: “There isn’t anyone here now who knows anything about it. They are all out of town. Maybe we will be able to help you out later in the week.” ‘The day was that set for the Nonpartisan county conventions through- out North Dakota, RING AROUND THE RADIO One of the amusing incidents of the current political situation has to do with talks—and counter talks—over the radio. Several weeks ago, Governor William Langer scheduled a speech on the air. His opponents within the Nonpartisan League bought the time imme- diately following him for the purpose of making answer to whatever he might say. The governor learned of it—canceled his own talk. The official announcement was that he was out of town. Then the opponents scheduled a speaker—and Langer bought the time immediately following. The opponent did not go before the “mike.” The Teason was not officially disclosed but some sources said the radio people thought an announcement he wanted made would burn up the air waves, ‘was too hot to handle. The reason: They weren't sure he was not violating the laws of libel. And radio stations are jointly liable with a speaker in case a man says something which may be made the subject for a damage action. The radio people don’t regard it as censorship but as self-protection. ‘THE MAN WAS GREATLY SURPRISED Announcement that request has been made to the government for CCC camps at a number of proposed state parks brought no cheers from citizens interested in water conservation. They feel one company would be enough for the parks. The federal man who came out to look into the ‘was unfamiliar with prairie conditions, talked at first about assigning the’ young men to trim the trees and clean up the woods on the park sites. When he saw the parks he changed his views. That at Old Fort Abraham Lincoln, south of Mandan, hes three trees on it. All are small. A state park south of Bismarck is said to have 57 trees. ‘There are indications that the park camps will be short-lived; that most of the CCC energies will be devoted to building dams for the conservation of water, of which this state needs a great deal. THE CONVENTION I8 “IN THE BAG” Disclosures of the last week will have no effect on the outcome of the Nonpartisan convention at Valley City but will pep up that at Jamestown and make it a major meeting. ‘The reason is that the payrollers who engineered control of the precinct tings and county conventions did their work well. They have the thing the bag” because most of the delegates will not dare to publicly change their stands, even though they may hate themselves privately. The effect, however, will be to make the Langerites much more con- ciliatory toward some folks whom they had slated for the axe, Senator Frazier ‘and Congressman Sinclair, for example. There were signs that the Langer- ites were ready to pillory these gentlemen unless they said “Uncle.” As it is, the failure of Senator Frazier to reply to demands made by payroller-controlied conventions in Logan and Hettinger counties will be ignored. These groups demanded that he announce by March 2 whether he would support whatever ticket is endorsed at Valley City. So far as ts known, he has not replied; probably will not. Politically he is a very cau- tious man and has got past some tough spots before by the simple process of saying nothing. ROOSEVELT COURAGE AND POPULARITY ARE PRAISED IN EUROPE Continental Nations Are Reluc- tant to Laud Effects of Plans, However (Copyright, 1944, by The Associated Press) ‘What does Europe think of Frank- ‘tin D. Roosevelt? ‘The Associated Press asked that question in the capitals and trade centers of the Old World on the eve of the President's first year in office. Unanimous admiration for his courage and popularity coupled with reluctance to predict the international effects of his economic polices was the broad result, ‘Here is the picture: Berlin— Germany's admiration for President Rooseevit as a man and Jeader has not yet produced any final expression about his economic and fi- nacial reform et the end of the first year of his administration. Sentiment concerning Roosevelt held all up and down the Reich was typically expressed in the Hamburger Fremdenbiatt: “While’s the president's economic policies have brought no convincing results, nevertheless his great service is that through courage to act he has inspired the American people to new bopes of their economic future.” Popularity Amazing Paris — Admiration for President Roosevelt's success in arousing the American people from despair to hope, combined with doubt as to the widom of his economic policies marked French continental opinion as his first vear in office ended. “Really it is a new America— young, ardent, vibrant,” wrote the New York correspondent of the news- paper Matin Saturday. Even the bitter criticism which a year ago greeted Roosevelt's monetary Policies has given way to more fa- vorable comment. To the press, the veal miracle is that while furnishing teal leadership he still is able to ¢ain his popularity. - Before Premier Gaston Doumergue was called to office it was common to hear the man in the street declare “what France needs is a Roosevelt.” London — The prominence given day on tariff and disarmament in London’s morning -newspapers fur- nished renewed indication of the keen interest with which his administration thas been watched here in the last veer.

More directly, there are signs that Ickes may cut off the flow of federal money to the highway department or demand a shake-up there as a result of the five per cent squeeze, THE VACANCIES WORRY THEM One of the worries of the Langer partisans as the Valley City conven- tion approaches is who will be endorsed to fill the “vacancies” to be created by the refusal of other elected officials to run on the same ticket with the governor. They have very few persons who are well enough known to lend strength to the ticket. Plenty of Langer adherents are too well known, also, and that fact may prove a handicap. It reasonably certain going on is Saturday: “Preident Roosevelt saw the dread- ful danger of constantly falling prices, ‘and unique among statesmen had the courage of his opinions. His policies tre the most grandiose effort in the history of man to prevent a catas- trophe which would endanger society.” Copenhagen — The leading Danish economic weekly said Saturday: “In his inaugural speech President Roosevelt said America wishes to be a aac neighbor to other countries, and @ lived up to his word.” INSULL NOTIFIED HE MUST QUIT GREECE; MIGHT GO TO SYRIA Previously Had Gained Exten-' sions; Faces Embezzlement Count in Chicago is very difficult. at this writing.

Hopton worked for Olsness 10 years as manager of the state bonding and fire insurance department, helped Olsness make them successful. He left of his own accord four years ago to enter the insurance business in Canada, taking advantage of an opportunity which came to him through contacts made in the state job. The depression forced him out at Winnipeg and he returned to North Dakota a year ago. The young man is a lawyer and Olsness, for old time’s sake, is said to on behalf of the state in the Timmermian defalcation case at Mandan.
