Are Found-Gale Also
Hits Ohio.

of New York as more victims are res

from drowning, the overturning of a
giant Ferris wheel in ClasOn Point
park, the uprooting of trees, the over
turning of boats in Long Island sound
and other accidents resulting from
the storm now total IS.
A number of persons reported miss
ing may bring the death total much
higher.
The number of injured has not yet
been learned, though it is believed
that they will number more than the
dead missing.

house was torn loose from its fOunda-
ton, live wires were torn down and

Ships Unless Stopped by
Supreme Court.

Washington, June 15.-"Unless the
Supreme court renders a decision
that it is illegal to sell liquor on
United States passenger ships in COM
petition with foreign vessels, will
not rescind the order authorizing such

made by Chairman Albert D. Lasker,
chairman Of the shipping board, re-
ferring to a letter addressed to Pres
ident Harding by Adolphus Busch III
of the Anheuser-Rusch Brewing COM
pany, st. Louis. The Busch letter

grantly violated on shipping board
vessels and RENTED copy of the
wine list recently procured on one
of the American ships.

HARDING SAYS SUBSIDY
OR AN EXTRA SESSION
President Sends Edict to House Of
Representatives-De Ac-
ton on Bill.

Washington, June Ia. President
Harding opened his fight in congress
for early enactment Of the ship SUBJ
sidy bill.
Chairman Campbell Of the house
rules committee made public letter
from the President asserting congress
would be convened in extraordinary
session if it failed to act on the
measure during the present session.
In his letter to Chairman Campbell
President Harding said:
II understand that in a very short
time the merchant marine bill is to
be favorably reported to the house.
[ am writing to express the hope that
your committee on rules will report
whatever provision is necessary for
it's early and final consideration.
81 cannot convey to you how
earnestly l feel the necessity Of pass
ing this act
$50 much is involved and such a
difficult, discouraging situation will
follow if congress fails to sanction the
merchant marine bill that l shall feel
myself obliged to call congress in
extraordinary session to especially
consider it if it went over through any
neglect or delay beyond the present
term.
Il am writing an expression of my
earnestness to you at this time be-
cause l understand that it is within
the province Of the rules committee
to report a provision under which
there may be secured an early and,
hope, favorable consideration"
Democratic leaders of the house pro-
tested against the drive of the Presi-
dent. The legislation was bitterly as
sailed by Representative Davis, Demo
crat of Tennessee. Representative
Gardner, Democrat of Texas, said the
bill "takes from $75,OOO,OOO to $780,
100000 from the treasury and gives it
to a special interest"

A TALE OF THE TIMES

Back in 1917, two young men got
jobs. One had position in a war
work plant where he earned 500 a
week. His money went fast. BE
would have ten pairs of shoes at a
time, as he saw footwear that pleased
his fancy, and when the first sole
wore down, he would throw them
away without resoleing, even though
the upper was perfectly good. His
money all went in such ways, and he
had nothing laid up when the flush
times passed.
The other young fellow thought the
war work would be very temporary
thing, where he would get no perma-
nent start. So he took a Job in a
grocery store at low pay and has grad
ually worked up since then, until now
he is manager of a fair-sized business
Tor an absent owner, receiving S32 a
week.
That fellow now has $500 in the
bank. The other day his friend came
around dead broke, and asked him for
the loan of $500. A lot of people will
hope that he didn't get it.
That story is typical of hundreds of
thousands of instances. These young
fellows on high pay, the majority of
them with no families dependent on
them, had the chance of a lifetime to
get a start. That young man on $50
week should have several thousand
dollars in the bank when the flush
times passed by. He could have done
it as easily as not without denying
himself any necessity. But he could
not see it. He proved his incapacity,
and, naturally fellow of that kind
will have pretty hard time when the
pinch comes. ,s...

SENATOR McCUMBER'S DEFEAT

The political fate of Senator Nc
Cumber is of interest here not only
because he represents the neighbor-
ing state of North Dakota but also
because he is chairman of the tariff
committee of the senate which has
been dealing with the Fordney-Mc-
! Cumber tariff bill-a measure which
proposes to perpetuate against Can
ada the highly protective features of
the emergency tariff. Mr.. McCum-
Der has been a United States sem
ator for the past twenty-three years
and has become one of the Republi-
can leaders of that body. His eclipse
at the Republican primaries in North
Dakota last week is therefore an event
of some note.
That eclipse has little or no relation
to national politics. It was indirectly
due to the great issue in state politics,
that is, whether the Nonpartisans
shall or shall not regain control of
state affairs. Senator McCumber was
defeated at the Republican primaries
by Ex-Governor Frazier, Nonpartisan,
by vote of approximately $4,000 to
10000. This result was not due to
the popularity of Frazier, who was
displaced from the gubernational Of
flee last fall by the Independent Re-
publicans through the use of the re-
call; nor was it due to sweep of
the nonpartisan cause for they cap
tured hardly any of the nominations
for important state offices. It was
due, it is said, rather to loss of
strength by McCumber, chiefly on ac-
count of faux pas which he made at +
the elections of 1920 when he lent as
sistance to several Nonpartisan candi-
dates, hoping that the Nonpartisans
would this year return the favor.
Some Republicans who were not Non
The weekly times-record. (Valley City, N.D.) 1912-1922, 1922-07-20

partisans are said to have voted for
Frazier because they refused to vote
for McCumber, and many others prob
ably stayed at home.
The defeated senator has announced
that he is definitely out of the run
ming and that he will loyalty support
Frazier at the November election.
This will hardly please the Indepen-
dent Republicans in North Dakota and
will be taken by many of them as en-
tirely justifying their attitude to Nc
Cumber. They may now transfer
their support to O'Connor, who Sc
cured the Democratic nomination for
senator, with the object of uniting in
an effort to defeat the Nonpartisan
candidate.
The United States electoral system
in the states where there are primary
elections, is very different from ours
and is complicated still more when a
third party arrives. In some states,
including North Dakota, each elector
must register himself as either DEM
ocrat or Republican when the asses
sors are making the rounds. At the
primaries they must 60 according to
their registration. An elector regis
tered as Republican can go only to
the Republican primary, though he
can vote as he please in the election
afterwards. The primaries make no
provision for third parties. The plan
of the Nonpartisans has been to reg
lister as Republicans and attempt to
capture the primaries. The opposition
to the Nonpartisans is so strong.
however, that many Democrats reg
istered as Republicans in order to get
into the Republican primaries and pre-
vent the Nonpartisans from getting
control.
While, therefore, Frazier took the
nomination from McCumber owing to-
the latter's weakness, the Nonparti-
sans met with general defeat in their
attempt to capture the nomination for
state offices. Governor Nestos who
had only 1000 majority over Frazier
at the recall elections last November.
won the nomination at the primaries
by at least 10000 votes over the Nom
partisan candidate. The Independent
candidates also won the
nominations for acknowledgements,
attorney general, commissioner of ag-
riculture and labor, and secretary Of
state, the latter by sweeping ma
jority.
The Nonpartisans have thus sus-
tanned decisive defeat in regard to
the state offices, and Lynn Frazier's
chances of becoming senator depend
chiefly on whether the opponents of
;e Nonpartisans can get together,
O'Connor is said to be not strong
opposition candidate because he can
not command the Scandinavian vote
which is considerable factor in
North Dakota. 1t may be, therefore

hat the Nonpartisan candidate may
