2 HOLT TO PULL FOR NEW DEAL IN STATE: Sees Need for Congressmen, Who Will Be in Sympathy With Administration Grand Forks, N. D., Aug. 21.—(P)— President Roosevelt's recent visit to} North Dakota “impressed upon a great many North Dakota citizens the necessity of sending congressmen to Washington who are in sympathy with the administration,” Henry Holt, Democratic nominee for United States senator, said Tuesday in a statement outlining his fall campaign plans. He announced his intention to ex- plain and clarify the New Deal, es- pecially as it relates to North Da- kota, and to promise, if elected, to cooperate with the administration so that North Dakota will receive more favorable consideration than it has in the past. “It should not be necessary for me to explain that I will naturally be wholeheartedly behind President) Roosevelt,” Holt said, “but judging by the number of letters I have receiv it is apparent that many North Ds kotans are under the impression that, if elected, I would pattern my coop- eration with the president after the performances of some of our sena-/ tors and congressmen in the past. | “The New Deal means everything | to North Dakota. Its success nation- ally and here in this state demands the utmost cooperation of both Dem- ocrats and Republicans. This is not time for partisanship as the president has clearly indicated both by word and action. If America is to work itself out of the present economic morass. its citizens must pull to- gether.” —_—_—_$—<—____—__- | Weather Report For Bismarck and vicinity: ‘ait tonight and Wednesday: slightly cooler tonight.

Probably both. If they can meet this require- ment they are in position to go ahead. The banks will n:eet them half way. Building material dealers and ccntractors will meet them more than half way. Some folks are figuring on it now southeast tonight, | and stand to make a profit if and} warmer east pot-|when things come back to normal,’ according to the building material men. Prices now are as low as they they ever will be again. When the lumber code went into effect prices went up, but this situa- tion was changed by a code revision, effective July 20. In an effort to stimulate home building. prices were revised downward and are now at a relatively low level. Building men expect them to be stable for the next six months or so, but see little chance for them ever to go much lower. The labor situation is conducive to lcew-cost building. Many iocal artisans still are unemployed and willing to work at reasonable wages. Contrac- tors are not figuring on large profits because of keen competition. In the days of the 1928-29 building boom, it was estimated tnat the actual ccnstruction of a modern, bungaloy type home cost about $1,000 a room, including equipment. The present cost is somewhat less, prokably between $800 and $900 a room. Some Have the Idea That money is available in Bismarck for building is indicated by the fact that material dealers report a few “nibbles” from persons who are getti cost figures. Whether or not this will :00|be translated into actual building re-/the time granted for payment is jmains to be seen. Meantime, here are a few sugges- tions for those who are contemplating home remodeling or repairing and those who want to build. this city is normal, seven out of every 10 homes need some work done on them. This is the average for the nation as indicated by a recent survey. Second, get a figure on the cost of the work from a reliab:e contractor. | Whether it is paint, carpentry work, plumbing, electric work or any one of (09/the scores of things which must be; done around a house, contractors will give you an estimate without cost. The same is true with new construc- tion. First, check over what your home} |meeds and what you want to do.

One local expert, who expects to make loans and doesn’t expect to lose any money either, remarked “that's the beauty about it. It is the simplest thing the government ever has put out.” Information obtained from the First National and Dakota National banks, the Bismarck Building and Loan as- sceciation and the First Federal Sav- ings and Loan association of Bis- marck, supports the financial infor- mation in this article.

Stinchfield, Minneapolis attorney, de- scribed General Hugh Johnson, NRA dministrator, as the “bureaucrat’s most perfect representative” in a talk Tuesday before the annual conven- tion of the Kiwanis International, dis: trict of the Dakotas and Minnesota. Speaking on “Vanishing Democ- recy,” he attributed it to the growth of bureaucracy. He also criticized the NRA in this connection. “As an indication of our national condition, what I would call to your attention is the growth of our bureaucracy,” he said. “And with the growth of the bureaucracy, the growth of the use of arbitrary power, the constant destruction of the basic theory of our liberties. “The bureaucrat knows all there is to be known. The bureaucrat believes he can make the law better than any- body else; he is better able to enforce it; no one can or ought to have the right to interpret it; and all com- plaints of individuals should be made te him. The bureaucrat’s most perfect representative is undoubiedly General Hugh Johnson of NRA.’ Stinchfield also criticized Governor Olson for his declaration of military rule in the Minneapolis truck drivers’ strike. At Tuesday's session of the Kiwanis convention, Karl E. Mundt, Madison, 8 D,, district governor, gave his an- nual message, as did seven deputy dis- trict governors. Reports were received from other officers, including R. Armistead Grady, Duluth, district secretary.

Fear Forest Fires Will Destroy Town Spokane, Wash., Aug. 21.—()—Up- on the vagaries of the wind Tuesday rested the fate of Tiny Avery, Idaho. at whose limits a raging forest fire licked while nearly 500 fighters bat- tled stubbornly to check it. After the flames had roared over nearly 2,000 acres during the day, the fighters blocked the blaze’s forward progress with trenches late Monday night. Scores of forest service pumps sprayed water over buildings near- est the leaping flames. Foresters said a slight breeze would sweep the forest fire over the town. In other sections of Idaho, Montana, Washington and British Columbia discouraging reports came fronr fronts where nearly 10,000 fighters were waging a battle against fire. In the Boise national forest, where 20,000 acres were burned over Satur- day and Sunday, the wind sent the blaze back over the scorched area and the remaining timber was destroyed. Three new fires broke out on the Cabinet forest of western Montana and two of them developed speedily into major blazes. Pneumonia Vaccine To Get Final Test Philadelphia, Aug. 21.—(?)—A_ vac- cine to prevent pneumonia will un- dergo its final test—human inocu- lation—during the next three months. It will take that long for the series of experiments Dr. John A. Kolmer, Temple University professor who claims its discovery along with a vac- cine preventative for infantile paraly- sis, is planning to demonstrate its effectiveness. Just who his human “test tubes” will be, Dolor Kolmer did not say, except that they will be “volunteers” and that the experiments -will be “ex- tensive.” The vaccine has already been tried to a limited degree on humans “with & great degree of success,” the pro- fessor declares, and has been com- Pletely successful in inoculation of monkeys, dogs and rabbits. WHEAT QUOTAS FOR NATIONS ABANDONED Deadlock Means “Open Sea- son” on Exports; Quarterly Plan Advanced | Raw Liquor; Presto! Aged Whisky London, Aug. 21—(?)—Attempts to reach an agreement on export quotas have been definitely abandoned by the wheat conference, ‘This means the first “open season” | in’ wheat shipping since the 1934 wheat agreement was signed last Au- gust, although during the year Russia Tefused to accept her quota and Ar- gentina exceeded her allotment when negotiations for an increase fell through. No meeting of the full conference was held Tuesday, although one had been announced Tuesday in an official communique, A sub-committee, made up of representatives of seven nations, held a further meeting Tuesday to work out details of a new agreement which will be submitted to the govern- ments. A plan for a quarterly adjustment of quotas, instead of the fixed annual figure, is the chief feature of the pro- posal on which the sub-committee is working but a scheme to adjust these quotas strictly on a basis of prices prevailing in each quarter was aban- doned for the time being. | The refusal of Argentina to accept less than 150,000,000 bushels coupled with a favorable world wheat situa- {tion because of the drouth led the |conference to abandon a plan for es- |tablishing annual quotas during this |session, A discussion of the allotment was postponed until November, If all governments favor the quar- jterly scheme for quotas the question | will be taken up this fall.
