THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, APRIL 26, 1934 CONTINUE from page one Cain Is Endorsed As Candidate for Gubernatorial Job A decision to place a full congres- @ional and state ticket in the field came out of the afternoon's session of a committee composed of one dele- | gate from each county represented. It was brought out in discussions on the floor that the committee's rec- ommendations do not prohibit en- dorsement of incumbent state officials who have the support of the Anti- Langer faction of the Nonpartisan League. M. H, Lynch, LaMoure county, sub- mitted a substitute motion to reject the committee's report, but his motion failed on a second. In a standing vote those opposing the motion to name a full ticket in- cluded former Gov. George F. Shafer, and A. W. Fowler, Fargo, former Congressman O. B.! Burtness, and State Senator James L. L. Twichell, P. Cain. After resolutions were adopted di-! Tecting criticism at Gov. Langer for| mercial loans or private deposits, methods employed in administering | federal relief, a motion was approvea| to adopt a resolution of appreciation to Judge A. M. Christianson, named! ated as a business enterprise and state federal emergency relief admin- istrator after federal authorities re- moved Langer from that post. Acker, Hillsboro, in introducing the motion, lauded Judge Christianson. Oppose Leader Financing In its platform and declaration of | principles the conventon struck out Langer’s acts, to his many frequent use of Na- tional Guardsmen, and methods em- “The Leader,” Langer administration newspaper. A summary of the platform follows: vigorously at Gov. pointing particularly proclamations, ployed in financing Opposition to Proclamation.” “government Opposition to “the system of whole- sale executive moratoriums that have been proclaimed from time to time by the governor.” Condemnation of the Langer ad- ministration “as conceived and per- petuated in fraud and deception, as immersed in corruption and dishon- esty, and carried on in a spirit of Jawlessness and tryanny unparalleled” in the history of the state govern- ments. Charged that Langer and his sub- “have created confusion and chaos throughout the entire state ordinates government and its institutions. “He (Langer) has, by precept and example,” the platform said, “encour- aged lawlessness among the people, and has undermined the foundation of law and order everywhere.” To correct “some of these evils in our state government,” the platform Tecommends that the following initi- ated measures be submitted to the voters at the next general election: Would Initiate Measures Repealing veto power of the gover- Nor on the industrial commission.

Action of state officers who have “refused to support or tolerate those numerous acts of folly and lawless- the last legislature “whereby the courts are given the power to delay the entry of judgments in foreclosure Proceedings and to delay execution in all cases where justice requires it, and |that the courts have generally ob- served the provision. of this act.” The convention went on record as favoring enactment of a law similar in principle to the Minnesota and ‘Wisconsin statutes, giving the courts authority to grant a reasonable ex- tension of the period of from foreclosure and execution sales: in emergency cases upon fair condi- tions. Charge Usurpation of Pewer In a veritable bill of complaint against the acts of Gov. Langer, the resolutions charged that the gover-| was nor: Usurped the functions of the legis- lature by use of personal proclama- tions and personal orders “to sns- pend existing rights, repeal existing laws, and to create new laws of prop- erty and conduct.” Usurped functions of the courts and “has threatened to recall judges, and attempted to intimidate the courts of the state in the performance of their Judicial duties.” Has “repeatedly tyrannised over and interfered with the functions of local officers, including sheriffs, po- licemen, county commissioners and others by issuing numerous lawless orders directed to them by proclama- tion and otherwise.” Has “openly and repeatedly violat- ed” the constitution by “unlawfully ordering the state militia to execute Personal orders, issued to suppress or restrain civil officers, and to deny cit- izens their civil right and has thereby attempted to subordinate the civil au- thority to the military authority.” ness which have characterized the Langer administration” was ap- Proved. “While we differ with them on many questions of state policy,” the resolution said, “we commend them for their courage and decency in re- fusing to support Gov. Langer for re-election.” Equitable reduction of public ex- penditures was called for; the Mis- souri river diversion project and the St. Lawrence seaway were endorsed, and “haphazard vetoes of certain items in the budgets of the state railroad commission and other de- partments and institutions” were dis- approved. Considerable discussion revolved around the indictment of Gov. Langer by the federal grand jury. Some delegates stressed that if the government obtains a conviction Langer will be eliminated from the Tace and leave T. H. Thoresen, “anti- Langer faction” endorsee for gover- nor, unopposed. This group favored & gubernatorial candidate to assure Opposition to Thoresen if Langer is eliminated. Hold Moratoria Needless In their resolution criticising Lang- er’s moratoria the Independent Re- publicans charged “these blanket moratoriums are wholly unnecessary, but they have caused unlimited harm to the people of the state. “We believe,” the resolution said, “the functions of extending relief to oppressed debtors, tenants, and oth- ers, is a function which should be Propriate laws, and not by the gover- nor or the state militia.” Attention was called to an act of gravely impaired the credit of the| state and its political subdivisions, as well as that of ‘all farmers and busi- Reasmen.” That he has “degraded and @isgtaced the state of North Dakota and its people in the eyes of the na-| tion and has forfeited the confidence of the federal government.” State industrialism was hit in a, Devils Plank opposing the program recom-) mended by the league convertion at Valley City and declaring the pro- posal to establish new state-indus- tries in North Dakota to be “detri- mental to the credit of the state and! inimical to the public welfare.” ces Action of the voters in rejecting the sales tax and other referred legislative | acts in the special election last year was “heartily approved.” The convention deplored “the un- Just discrimination shown in salaries of state officers and state institutions a8 compared with the salaries of beer inspectors, employes of the Bank of North Dakota and other political em- ployes,” ne a “fair nt. ey t Weather Report FORECAST For Bismarck and vicinity: Fair and slightly colder hese Friday & tly aed and warme! kota: Fair, Fain alig ht- ly Pig * central port a tonight; Pray ey ty clou- warmer. ee South Da-: kota: Fair, slight- be goades to ponte Has abused his powers as chief exec- utive by declaring martial law in Bis- marck in an effort to prevent filing of referendum petitions. 8] ‘Corrupt Racket’ Has personally sponsored and in. | tu augurated “a vicious and corrupt rack- et, known as the five per cent assess- ment on salaries of state officers and state employes,” to establish an ad-{central ministration newspaper, “The Lead- er”, Has forced business firms to adver- tise in “The Leader” and has required the state mill and bank of North Da- kota to advertise.
