“GRASS ROOTERS’ 10 MAKE CONSTITUTION . LEADING ’36 ISSUE Midwest Republicans Ready ‘To Combat Destructive Forces in America’ Springfield, Til, June 12—()—The constitution became a leading “Grass Roots” campaign issue Wednesday, with midwestern Republican politic- dans declaring themselves ready “to combat the destructive forces at work in America today.” Organizers of the 10-state conven- ‘tion indicated they would continue to strive for a 1936 Republican victory on the basis of the “Save the Consti- tution” slogan and a direct attack up- on President Roosevelt. Following adjournment, General Chairman Harrison E. Spangler of the “Grass Rooters” said: : “The conference has spoken. It has reflected the true heart of the mid- west. The people of this territory ... have volunteered at the first call in the defense of our American institu- tions. No gathering of ten thousand people could have been more repre- sentative.” In brief, the party rally at Lincoln 1, Stressed the “Save the Con- atitation” battle cry. 2. Made a sustained attack di- rectly upon President Roosevelt, holding him responsible for criti- cised phases of the New Deal. 3. Avoided carefully any G.O.P. presidential boom. Orators hammered away at the con- stitution topic, expressing fear of cen- tralization and dictatorship, during the two day convention at the scene of Abraham Lincoln’s political triumphs. The cue came from Frank O. Low- den, former governor of Illinois who emerged from retirement to declare the administration wanted an NRA amendment, with “the essential forms of American government challenged.” John D. M. Hamilton of Kansas, said it proved the existence of a “fixed course to destroy the government.” A convention trial also was given the campaign strategy of inviting ime to join with the Repub- Alfred E. Smith, mentioned in the east as a possible Republican candidate, was given a hand while Re- Publicans sang “East Side, West Bide—.” Controversies that grew out of the writing of the resolutions were quieted before the two reports—as a “declara- tion of grievances” against President Roosevelt and a “declaration of prin- ciples” advocated for 1936 — were adopted by acclamation. Children Mourn Loss Of Terrier Playmate Calvin, 5, and Ronald, 3, sons of Mr. and Mrs. Clifford Palmer, 201% First St., believe that “the meanest man” is the automobile driver who Saturday morning ran over and killed their year-old terrier pup, “Kip- per,” who has been greatly missed in the Palmer household. The pup lived only a few minutes after he was hit, making his way to the lawn of the Palmer home and dying there. Calvin who was invited to attend a picnic in the afternoon, was so grief- stricken that he refused to go.

Patera of Bismarck was elected president of the State Food Dealers at the business meeting of that group which opened the thirty- fifth annual convention of the North Dakota Retail Merchants association here Wednesday morning. He suc- ceeds A, W. Gussner, also of Bis- marck, Elmer M. Burt, Cavalier, was named vice-president and W. W. Jahnke, Fargo; William Ferris, Devils Lake; Charles Parker, Dickinson; Oscar Morck, Mandan and Fred Blumer, Ellendale were chosen directors. ‘Approximately 100 delegates were present to hear the welcoming ad- dress by Mayor A. P. Lenhart which followed the food dealers meeting and opened the regular convention program. President J. Norman Elli- son, Minot, delivered the first ad- Gress on the program and reports of the secretary and treasurer followed. Looking at state business condi- tions through the eyes of an outsider, John H. DeWild, head of the trade extension department of the Minne- apolis Civic and Commerce associa- tion, said that “with promising crop conditions throughout the state, re- tailers should do the best job of sell- ing they have ever done.” Urges Sales Promotion “We need to do a better job of sales Promotion within our stores and should encourage our to become optimistic,” he said. He ad- vocated that dealers pay more at- tention to advertising and use de- scriptive copy to convince the cus- tomers on the merits of merchandise. “The merchant who does the best job of advertising is going to get cus- tomers into his store first,” DeWild stated. In quoting agricultural sta- tistics the speaker showed that the farmer is a regular spender, his an- nual expenditures for general mer- chandise and home needs being sur- prisingly well distributed over the 12 months. It is necessary, therefore, that retailers have a worthwhile pro- gram of promotion each month, he concluded. Adjourning after DeWild’s address, the delegates re-convened at Man- dan where they heard Frank Arnold, head of the Nebraska Taxpayers’ association, who addressed the state meeting of the North Dakota Tax- payers’ association in session there. Tour Indian Village A tour through the Mandan In- dian Village with a descriptive talk by Russel Reid, superintendent of the state historical society, was climaxed with a lunch served at the community lodge, in the replica of the old Man- dan Indian village.

Talks by E. B. Moon of the St. Paul Association of Commerce, Joseph J. Dahl, and John K. Kennelly, Man- dan, concluded the afternoon ses- sions. Charles R. Robertson, Bismarck, will be toastmaster at the annual din- ner meeting at 6:30 p. m. in the din- ing room of the World War Mem- orial building, convention headquar- ters.
