TO WIN RECALL
Unless the Victory Fund drive is
resumed in earnest and the postdated
checks given as membership fee paid
in the next three weeks the executive
committee will be unable to conduct the
campaign this fall ID a manner that
ensures victory for the League, says
Chairman A. A. Leiderbacr Of the
state executive committee in state
ment to the members. Mr.. Leiderbach
points out that this campaign will be
one Of he hardest fought and most
bitter in the history Of the state and
that it is going to take lots Of money
to checkmate the moves Of the I. V.
A. in the next six weeks.
"The opposition believes it can
crush the Nonpartisan League move
ment in North Dakota in this cam
paign but it is taking no chances and
nothing that the l.. v. "A. bosses be-
lieve will in anyway aid their pur-
pose will be omitted and no expense
will be spared to accomplish their pur-
pose," said Chairman Liederbach. "We
might just as we'll make up our minds
from the start that we are going to
have the hardest fight on our hands
that the League ever had since it en-
tered politics.
"Your executive committee has
plans ready for an energetic and sys-
tematic campaign. We have the prom
ise of some of the greatest men in
the country to come to North Dakota
and take part in this tight on our side.

Adoo, former railroad administrator
for the federal government and "Coin"
Harvey, one of the foremost finan-
cial experts Of the age, are among
those who have offered their service
on the speakers platform to us in
this campaign.
But it costs money to get these
men even tho they give their time
free. Their travelling expense comes
high and the cost Of halls and hotel
accommodations adds to the expense.
But we need men like these and sew
eral more if we are going to win this
time. The opposition will have paid ex-
pert workers in almost every precinct
from now on until the election. These
have been trained to spread lying
propaganda in such convincint man.

before voters many of them are IL
able to be influenced and the election

"You know, as we'll as your COM

again. On the other hand if we ad-
