ESCH-C H-CUMMINS LAW
IN HIS SPEECH

hDes Moines, Iowa. Oct 19.-Goy-
ernor John J.. Blaine of Wisconsin1in
speaking to middlewest governors
and state officials in conference here
today declared there can be no re-
turn to normal conditions until the
Esch- -Cummins law is repealed. #
After lengthy talk on the freight
rate problem, the unemployment
situation and conditions generally
the Wisconsin governor presented a
resolution calling for repeal of the
Esch -Cummins law. Action was de-
ferred.
He reviewed the war times and
blamed the extravaganza of that Pc
rtod in all lines Of business for the
depression now existing and express
ed his opinion that it you'd be some
time before peace and harmony can
prevail through the nation.

ages efficient and responsible man.
agement for it guarantees the car
riers a fixed return. Railroad stocks
are greatly inflated and the fixed
guarantee is upon the inflated value,
commonly known as 'watered
stock" Governor Blaine said.
"A guarantee to a private enter
prise is dangerous and vicious vet
there is no more Justification for
guaranteeing q return on railroad in
vestments than guaranteeing the

turer. Professional man or. woman

SENATE GETS

Senator Moses Launches At
tack on the Pending
Tax Bill.

ashington, Oct. 19.-The senate

with an attack on the pending bill by

Senator Nelson complained about
the supreme court decision, holding
that bonds issued by states and SUBJ

Farmers Facing Bankruptcy" But
That Didn't Prevent Nonpartisan
Leaguers From Doubling Tax Levy

The governor vetoed a number of
small items in the appropriation bill
on the ground that the appropriations
exceeded the available income. This
was entirely propera
But In the very same paragraph
the governor vetoed appropriations of
$2O1.550 for the state highway COM
mission and motor registration de-
partment on the ground that these
appropriations were not SUFFICIENT for
the needs Of these departments, and
that by vetoing these items the APP
propriations made for these depart
ments by the special, session Of 1919
would be In force during the coming
two years.
4 This meant that these appropria-
tions would be 100000 for the BIZ
ennial period, instead Of $201.550 as
the legislature had provided. So the
governor by his veto simply added All
extra ss8.450 onto the tax burdens of
the people. The language Of his
veto shows that he did this knowingly.
Boosted Appropriations.
| n In the same way the Nonpartisan
leaguers forced through an appropri-
alton Of $4,000 for the state depart
ment Of immigration and made des-
perate, efforts to obtain great In

ney General William Lemke.
The leaguers forced through the
appropriation of $4,000 for the state
industrial commission. and strove to
force an appropriation for the North
Dakota Home Builders association OF
100000 Only after long fight on
the part, Of the Independents was this
latter appropriation cut to $4,000.
What Ieaguers Did.
This condition persisted throurhout
the fight on the appropriations, the
Nonpartisan leaguers constantly striv.
ing for larger appropriations, es-
pecially for their pet departments.
and the Independents trying to make
cuts wherever possible.
AS a result of the Nonpartisa
leaguers' efforts the appropriations
made by the legislature were $1,000
900 greater than in any previous ses-
sion, and the general fund tax of the
state is doubled this year.
And now as the Fargo Courier
News says:

So these friends OF the farmer
take this time to double his taxes.

that responsibility may properly be

The railroads. he said, have taken
their share of losses in the present

fact that they were not permitted to
