INITIATIVE BALLOT
Governor of North Dakota Contends
Petitions Were Circulated in
bad Faith"

Bismarck, N. D., May 9.-Governor
Lynn j. Frazier today announced that
4 the referendum election on several
/ Nohpartisan league laws passed by the
recent legislature, asked for in petit
tions circulated by the Independent
Voters association, will be held Thurs
day, June 26, should the petitions be
! filed with the secretary of state. The
referendum petitions have not vet
been filed, but the governor anticipates
they will be.
! This means that the initiative petit
tons of the Independent Voters assoc
iation, proposing several laws along
similar lines to take the place of the
acts passed by the last legislature, will
be invalidated and that no vote will be
taken upon them. The governor an
nounced he had purposely decided upon
the date for the referendum with the
view of invalidating the initiative ne
titions.
"The initiative petitions were in bad
faith and they were Intentionally cir
culated by the Independent Voters as
ISOLATION to confuse the referendum is
Sues said the governor. "The refer
cndum petitions place before the pco-
pie for vote seven measures adopted
by the Legislature and the issues
should and must remain clear"
The measures the Independent Vot-
ers association are attempting to init
ate will not be voted on June 26. be-
cause the law requires that the petit
lions. must be filed 80 days before an
election to get on the ballot. The init
latlve petitions were filed in April.
Antileaguers Decline to Make
Statement
Fargo, N. D., May 9.-Officials of
the North Dakota Independent Voters
association declined to comment TODAY
on the action of Governor L. J. Fra
zler in declaring that he would fix the
referendum election for June 26. The
date is so early that it will not be
possible to hold an election on the
group Of initiative laws at the same
time: Theodore G. Nelson. secretary
OF the association, pointed out that
there were more than 10000 signers
to initiative petitions and that there
are about $4,000 signers to petitions
asking referendum on. July 8.

A Great Community Mother and
Daughter Get-tOgether."

Plans are now well under way by
which the mothers and daughters and
big sisters Of the city are to get to-
gether for real jollification, having a
meeting somewhat similar to the big
get-together the men and boys had
several weeks ago.
The Y. w. C. A. is supporting the
movement. This means that the at.
fair is "sure- 'nough" success. It is
estimated that with between six and
seven hundred girls in the schools, q
like number of mothers and big sisters
and other women will be in attend
ance so that the Get-together will be
one of siZable proportions.
Representatives from the Y. w. C.
A. visited the schools Wednesday and
Thursday and aroused large enthus-
iasm there among the girls who are
to be invited. They also caused to be
distributed invitation and enrolment
cards which were sent into every home
in the city inviting all women Of the
CITY to join in the jollification
The plans as reported indicate that
there will be a real basket banquet
followed by some of the cleverest
stunts and games and genuine care

mate connection with educational

position to speak most worthily to the
| women and girls in attendance.
A film of more than usual merit and
interest has been secured for the &C.
casion and will be shown as the clos
ing feature of the evenings program.
The Get-together is planned for the
night Of Monday, May 10Th, and with
the support Of the Y. W. c. A. is sure
to mark an epoch in community meet

sense community affair, not limited

girls, everyone attending is expected
to bring standard lunch basket which
will provide for herself and one school
girl.

GOVERNOR NOT
TAKING PART IN ,
SCHOOL FIGHT
Executive Says He Has Taken
No Sides in Controversy
Over Regulation Of Church
Institutions.
By a Staff Correspondent.

Lincoln Neb., March 22.-Gov-
ernor McKelvie said today in his
daily conference with newspaper
men that he had taken no hand on
either side of the fight over paro-
chial school legislation and that it
was not his intention to do so at
this time. He indicated that when
the matter gets into conference be-
tween the house and senate, he may
advise with the conferees upon the
matter.
The governor said that he had
made recommendation in his mes
sage relative to parochial school leg
islation and possibly he should have
included H. R. 81, the Burney bill.
in the list which he sent to the house
members and senator's as legislation
designed to fulfill the party pledges.
He pointed out that in his message
he said there should be the same re-
,Quirements for regulation and in
spection for public and private
schools, their teachers and the
courses of study.
When the question gets to the
conference stage, may have some
thing to say upon it if the confer
ence committees request my advice
or I should feel called upon to make
a further recommendation" asserted
the governor.
