Although he is being prominently
mentioned as a candidate for the
Democratic nomination for governor
of North Dakota, Wesley Mcdowell
OF Marion, who is in Grand Forks to-
day. is more interested in farm pros
poets than in politics, he says.
II have been too busy seeding and
helping in theS InterchurcR World
Movement to pay much attention to
politics." Mr.. Mcdowell said. "Of
urse this is the time of rear when
a mans friends are apt to start a lot
of flattering rumors about him. That
is all right if they are~not taken too
seriously. :
"At heart sthe people of North sDa-
kota are sound. We may get off IN a
tangent occasionally, but eventually I
an, sure we, will get back to. the right
track again.

STOCKS RALLY ON CURB WITH
SOME MODERATE GAINS AT CLOSE

After an early show of weakness, which
continued throughout the forenoon on the
Curb yesterday, the tone in the general
list qf stocks gave evidence Of u rallying
tendency and many issues rose TO the
days high figures. while moderate gains
were scored in a number OF the specu-
iative favorites. The feature IN the trad
ing was again supplied in the evere
losses in the newly floated independent
oil companies.
Increased liquidation caused quotations
in those stocks to drop sharply to new
low marks for the present movement with
the unsettled condition aided by the reach
ing OF numerous stop loss orders, which
automatically became market orders and
were executed Immediately.
