PRESIDENT STEELE

IF President Steele Of the Minot

This is no time for conditional

probably will be drafted for work on
farms in the state. under authority
given TO the state council of defense,
IN a billsadopted at the recent special
session Of the South Dakota leeisla--
ture. The measure gives the Council
OF defense power to register and con-
script any persons who, in its opin-
ion, are unemployed and idle and
whose services may be required and
are necessary to carry on, or increase
the production OF food and supplies
of all kinds for the purpose of win
ming h a Penalties ranging
from fines Of from IS to $1,000 and
Imprisonment in Jail FOL. 30 days are
provided in the act.
The measure was adopted as en-
Urgency war legislation in an effort to
assure the farmers Of the state an
adequate labor supply in planting and
harvesting crops. Although the
measure confers on the council Of de-
Tense broad authority in deciding
cases involving. the status Of men
who mayxfaJr under the unemployed
classification, the operation OF the
law is not directed against men en-
gage in udsefuI occupations.
Nc system Of registration has yet
been organized by the council to ar
~ out the provisions of the Law.

REGENTS BOARD

M|'Y'EY'S SCALP
,Atriotc Address at Surrey
Cause Of Investigation
By Board.

Surrey, N. D., April 15.-Consider-
lille curiosity. was aroused here this
week, when C. A. Totten, a member
IS the state board of regents. accom-
SAnied by Anthony Walton of Minot
nd his stenographer. the latter two
.Slng connected with the Grant You
n&n,s bank, came to Surrey to gather
kwdsnce regarding the patriotic ad-
Aliess delivered here on March 81 by
g6lonel Charles H. McVey of the
North Dakota University
Col. Mcvey in his address gave an
analytic discussion Of the political
Syetem of Germany, contrasting it
pften with a democratic form of gov
synment like our own.
Ale showed how this was our war in
Every sense Of the word. how it was
a(eessary for US to no only be pass
lv1 patriots. but active ones in every
WY. He explained to his audience
Adv every organization must be either
sor or against the United States, and
adv we must be either loyal or dis
oval, there being no o the fence
position in regard to the war.
This last point naturally led the
speaker to consider some OF our own
st1te organizations which profess 10y
l4y while their actions make us be-
i4ve otherwise. Then the speaker
aid that any questionable organiza-
:i&n, especially now, needed criticism
and should have it. Good, loyal or
y1l.ixations will welcome investigation
willie others will avoid it. So it was.
lA said in substance, our duty to keep
AZ eye on such organizations as the
~Ntnpartisan league and see where
heir leaders are taking US.
McVey struck right at. the heart of
the Nonpartisan league, much to the
satisfaction of his audience as evil
ienced by their hearty applause.
There was prolonged applause in
regard to the above statement until
J. w. Smith. a Nonpartisan farmer,
who lives near Surrey, arose and re-
uuested the privilege of asking a
question. The speaker consented. Mr..
Smith asked in substances: rs this a
political speech or patriotic address? ?"
Col. McVey, who accepted the chal-
lehge calmly, replied in a most force
full way: Its Americanism. That if
fighting people, who are not squarely
behind the government, was politics,
why then. make the best of it. 1 am
not affiliated with any political par
ty; and 1 am. free to speak the truth.
i have talked this talk all over the
state of North Dakota, and 1 will con
tinue to talk it as long as I see the
necessity of it,"
.Col. McVey's lecture struck deep
into 80 per cent of the hearts of his
audience. There was prolonged ap-
splause after each main point in his
speech and also after every sentence
he made in reply to MIR. Smith. The
latter left the room and the speaker

gave US an excellent conclusion to his

remarks.
After the address Mr.. Smith show
ed good Judgment in returning to the
hall and begged- the pardon OF Col.
loyal citizen and respected the uni
form the speaker was wearing, and
honored the flag, and was sorry for
the interruption he caused while Col.
McVey Was speaking. Mr.. Smith said
he agreed with the patriotic utter
ances but differed politically.
McVey made a strong impression In
Surrey. both as q man and speaker.
We should be very glad to have aim
return at any time and give us an
other address.
Some Of the citizens gave such en-
phatic approval of McVey's address
that the investigator did not ask to
take down the evidence on paper. But
some OF u citizens did make a sign
ed statement which only could be
complimentary to Col. McVey and
not in any way derogatory. Many
other citizens would have been glad
to make statements to the same effect
II they had been called upon.
Surrey is strong for the winning Of

quota of young men so far, many OF
them being college and university
men, and some Of them are already
fighting in the trenches in France and
others are only waiting for the call to

CAVALIER AND
PEMBINA HAVE
FILLED QUOTA
Every City: Village and
Township Reports Over
subscription.

Cavalier and Pembina counties have
gone over the top in the third Liberty
Loan drive. according to official fig
ures from the respective headquarters
Saturday. Every city, village and
in the two counties has
filled it's quota. it was said. and it
was expected that both counties would
have a nice margin over their respec-
tive allotments.
A report from Iangdon, which was
allotted $50. 900, said hat city had
oversubscribed al least rs per cent.
The ladies' of the two counties took
active part in the campaign and the
success of the drive is in a measure
due to their splendid efforts. Lodges
and church organizations were also
Of great help.
Pembina and Cavalier are the first
counties in North Dakota to report
in the preventative and the success
of the two counties should be a cri-
terion thai the rest OF the state will
follow their splendid lead.
