AF eee ADMINISTRATION HIT AS OBSTRUCTIONISTS Former Governor Charges That 1 FDR Has Not Lived Up to Farm Promises Minot, N. D., Aug. 12.—(?)—The present national administration is more autocratric than Hitler or Mus- solini, charged former Gov. Willam Langer Sunday afternoon at a church picnic near Minot. Declaring that members of the house and senate are anxious to vote on the Frazier-Lemke farm refinan- cing bill, but are prevented by ob- structionist tactics on the part of ad- ministration leaders, he declared “there no longer is representative gov- ernment in America.” Charging that not one of President Roosevelt’s promises to the farmer made in a speech at Topkea, Kan., in 1932 had been fulfilled, he declared the presidential candidate at that time had to reduce governmental expenditures and “get rid of bureau- cratic government.” He asserted that former Gov. Wil- liam Murray of Oklahoma, Gov. Etigene Talmadge of Georgia, former Gov. Charles Byran of Nebraska had been under administration fire, and observed,” you can see now what they are trying to do to Huey Long.” There is nothing new to North Da- kota in the programs submitted by Dr. F. E. Townsend, Senator Long or Upton Sinclair, he asserted, as the statute books already carry old age pension laws, minimum pay, maximum hours and other advance social legis- lation. Declaring the administration has announced “relief has been taken out of politics,” Langer disputed the asser- tion, pointing to the announced per- sonnel of the works progress admin- istration in North Dakota, which in- cludes Thomas H. Moodie, Henry Holt, John Moses and W. D. Lynch, all of them Democratic candidates for of- fice last year.” (Editor’s Note—The former governor is in error when he asserts that W. D. Lynch and John Moses are employes of the Works Progress administration. Lynch is associated with the Public Works administration while Moses is attorney in charge of passing on all titles to lands optioned in western North Dakota for the rural resettle- ment administration.)

FIGHT Youthful Bismarck Star Beaten by Crummer of Fargo for Jamestown Crown Jamestown, N. D., Aug. 12.—(?)— Fred Cummer, master club-wielder from Fargo’s Edgewood Golf Keegy the pharmacy golf tournament Sunday for the second time by pa ing back a field of 90 entrants. Cum- mer defeated Bismarck’s youthful Neil Croonquist in the final match by & score of 2 up and carded a perfect round over Oweti’s par 36 to thrill the large gallery which followed the finalists. A gale which reached hurricane proportions tormented the golfers throughout the entire day and sent scores soaring above par in all flights. Cummer's final round was the show of the day as he battled the tough Oweti par and the elements for his par 36. Croonquist, reaching the finals by virtue of his 2 up win over Billy Sun- dahl, 1935 state champion, kept the championship match in a thrilling state by putting up a stubborn battle in the nine-hole finals. Billy Sundahi carried off medalist honors in the event with a 37 after being in a four-way tie with Ernie Hauser, Mel Sundahl and Lloyd Kop- pen, all of Jamestown. Ninety golfers from 18 clubs throughout the state took part in the affair, Clubs represented included Jamestown Oweti, Jamestown Coun- try club, Bismarck Country club, Ed- geley, Wishek, Oakes, Valley City Country club, Valley City College course, Minot, Marion, Hastings, Judd, Fargo Edgewood, Moorhead, Harvey, Carrington, Cooperstown, and Man- dan. Four man team honors went to the Oweti club with a total of 158. Valley City was second, Regan Nine Downs FERA Team, 7 to 5 Errors Provide Victory Despite Pitcher Klein’s Three- Hit Hurling Held to three safe blows by Lefty Klein, the Regan baseball team com- bined those safe blows with six errors to defeat the Bismarck FERA team, 7-5, at Regan Sunday. Wind and dust which swept across the diamond handicapped play on both teams as the Regan club evened the series at one victory apiece. Regan counted its first score in the opening frame, added two more in each of the fourth, sixth and seventh innings while Pitcher Johnson was holding the FERA nine to one coun- ter in the opening frame, one more in the fifth and weakened enough to allow three more tallies to cross home in the eighth.
