Grimson Wednesday night at Rugby announced a decision con- tinuing in effect an order restraining County Auditor A. G. Torgerson from calling an election for the recall of State Senator George A. Jones of the 29th district of Ward county. The court held with Senator Jones in the contention that the auditor should have used the November, 1932, election vote for governor in deter-| Fa, mining whether the recall petitions ‘were sufficient, instead of the vote in ‘the June 1934 primary. The auditor ‘was guided in reaching his conclu- sion that the petitions were sufficient ‘by an opinion from the attorney gen- eral’s office that the June 1934 vote should be the determining basis.

Altenburg, assistant county agent, re: vealed Friday following communica- tions with the department of com- merce, bureau of census. ‘Washington authorities say that al- though the census of 1935 will cover practically all of the major items of interest to farmers, the schedule will ask only about one-third as many fauestions as did the deciennial cen- sus taken in 1930. Some idea of the magnitude of the agricultural census can be obtained from calculaticns based upon the number of farms. In 1930 there were 6,288,648 farms in the United States with a total of nearly a billion acres, Crops were harvested from approxi- mately 359,242,000 acres while the farm population was 30,445,350, or 24.8 of the United States total. Changes in farms and ranches and in the utilization or land will be re- corded in detail in the 1935 census, ‘This will be shown in the acreage of farms, crop land harvested, idle land, crop failure, plowable pasture and other grazing lands, woodland and all other farm land. Measured data on the effects of the drouth, damage done to crops, change in yield, amount and extent of crop failure and the number of livestock remaining in the drouth area will be procured.

SLOT MACHINES SOLD BY LANGERITES, NYE CHARGES Napoleon, N. D., Oct. 18.—()— Charges that slot machines were sold by the regulatory department under the regime of ousted Gov. William Langer, only to reappear within the state, were made here Wednesday night by U. 8. Senator Gerald P. Nye. Nye made his charges on the basis. of affidavits which he said had been obtained by Sidney A. Papke, who be- came chief of the regulatory depart- ment following assumption of office by Gov. Ole H. Olson. “I have here before me two photo- graphs of affidavits involving sale by the state‘regulatory department of confiscated slot machines,” Nye said, “The signatures to one or both of these affidavits are plain forgeries. It is apparent that the same man signed both, but one is signed ‘Fred Gant’; the other is signed ‘J. Fred Gant.’” “In any event,” Nye continued, “these were affidavits of a purchaser of these confiscated slot machines that he would not operate or sell them within the state of North Dakota. “I am told that some of these same machines were among those picked up by the regulatory department un- der Sidney Papke’s administration when a raid was made in North Da- kota, netting more. than 50 slot ma- chines.” : Nye asked the election of Tom Moodie, Democratic nominee for gov- ernor, “because I know so well the splendid result that will flow for all through an administration of govern- ment at his hands.” He also asked election of Congressman J. H. Sin- clair. He said Nonpartisans would “find whatever “chance is left to salvage and rebuild the Nonpartisan League which has been so thoroughly dis- graced by the Langer administration.
