NONPARIISANS
Tactics Make it Possible that

TOWNLEY MACHINE
is WELL OILED
O'Connor of Grand Forks
Maintains That He Does
Not Like Obstruction.
(By Stan Correspondent)

: Bismarck, N. D., Jan. 13.-The
Nonpartisan league legislature this
afternoon won a parliamentary vic
tory; applied the gag rule to members
to put McCuse on record today as
favoring ratification Of convention
amendments. After yesterday after
Moons secret caucus, A. c.. Townley
and his henchmen had the legislative
machine we'll oiled for overriding the
minority and as a result the house re-
considered J. F: T. O'Connor's motion
to refer the resolution to the COM
m1ttee of the whole, and they now
stand before the house with a recon-
mendation for immediate passage.
There is no doubt that they will be
passed this afternoon and be mes
saged Immediately to the senate. As
soon as the house reconvened at 1880
o'clock. Representative Deb Patter-
son.. Townley's floor leader, moved to
reconsider O'Connor's motion to refer
ter Maddox supported him, and the
fight was on. -
Patterson put himself out Of order
by moving that O'Connor's motion be
tabled but the leaguers Immediately
got their bearing.
On q standing vote. his first motion
carried 66 to "a. Patterson then re-
MOVcN his original mOClOn ana
launched into a long winded and
grandfloquent Grafton, referring to
the fact that the convention for 26
years had prevented the state enter

He referred to the weak child-like
voice Of the minority and declared
that they had been unable to hear the
words of the people for these 26 years.
Doesn't Favor Obstruction.
O'Connor of Grand Forks in an.
swering Patterson. said he was not in
favor of q policy Of obstruction; he
referred to the fact that the minority
had mo criticism to offer because the

that the league might go ahead and

ten days on their important bills,
which are contingent upon the su-

WILSON URGES
QUICK RELIEF
FOR EUROPE
Rapid Spread Of Bolshevism
Can Only be Stopped With
Food, He Says.

Washington, Jan. 13.-In a mes
sage today solemnly urging congress
to appropriate the $10O,0O0,0 900 re-
Quested for European food relief,
President Wilson said Bolshevism.
steadily advancing westward, could
not be stopped by force, but could
be stopped by food. Food relief, he
said, was the key to the whole Eu-
ropean situation and to the solutions
|of peace.
A message from Henry White,
member of the American peace dele
cation to the state department, said,
the startling westward advance Of
Bolshvism" dominated the entire Eu-
ropean situation and that it was Of
the utmost importance that the pres-
ident's request be granted at once.
Bolshevism, Mr.. White said, now
completely controls Russia and Po-
land and is spreading through Ger
many" and apparently the only effec.
tive barrier is food relief. He added
that 1t was impossible to inaugurate
the peace conference under proper
auspices without previous adequate
provisions to cope with this situa-
ti0n.
The presidents message, addressed
10 Senator Martin of Virginia and
Representative Sherley of Kentucky,
chairman Of the congressional appr0-
priations committees. and that Of Mr..
White were read on the floor of the
house by Mr.. Sherley during debate
on a special rule. to give immediate
consideration TO the appropriation bill.
