Governor Sees Bitter HumOr in
Letter from National De-
Tense Council
LABOR WAGE is QUESTION

THE North Dakota Council of De
Tense is asked for another J.. W. w.
proclamation" said Governor Frazier
with one of his occasional CLEANS OF
humor as he finished reading, to the
state council yesterday letter from
Arthur Fleming, chief Of section. sug'
costing that if North Dakot3 hopes tC
obtain sufficient supply of harvest
labor it must adopt more charitable
and less suspicious attitude toward
transients.
Governor Frazier issued procla-
nation somewhat to this effect year
ago, and he was bitterly criticized
therefor especially because he threat
ened to remove any peace offer who
sarchd a TRANSMIT who might be UNI
der suspicion without a warrant.
The board yesterday directed the
secretary to Immediately wire Direct
or General McAdoo urging favorable
action on a letter from Datus c. Smith

presentation of vouchers showing that
they have performed IS days actual
farm labor.
The matter of fixing a maximum
wage for harvest labor was discussed.
The council appros. ched the matter
with hesitancy, as one involving some
grave dangers. 1t was reported that
Renville county already had adopted
a scale OF As cents per hour. 1t was
finally suggested that conference Of
farmers representing all parts OF the
state be called in the near future, in
order that there might be agreed upon
a uniform maximumwage scale upon
which all contracts for farm labor
may be based T. J. Nelson Of Hoo
pie reported that farmers in his COM
munity a year ago adopted 81 the day
as the uniform wage and stood by it.,
although l. W. W. organizers who in
vaded the county just at harvest time
melted workers to hold out for IS.
He admitted that mysterious rumor
which gained circulation from some
source to the effect that the farmers
had ordered through a local hard
ware store 1000 rifles and plenty Of

Of cleaning out the I. ". w. may have
