NEST0S SPEAKS
IN CHICAGO TO
C0MNlERCEB0DY IN
Tells How and Why League
Was Defeated in North
Dakota.

!, Chicago, May 17.-How the Nom
partisan league of North Dakota was
defeated and why, was told to the
members of the Association Of Com
merce today at luncheon meeting
by Governor Ragnvald A. Nestos.
Governor Nestos last fall won the first
statewide recall election in the United
States over Governor L. J.. Frazier,
the Nonpartisan party governor.
During the last five years." Cover
nor Nestos said, II believe may say
without seeming presumptuous, that
your people have in a measure lost
confidence in the state Of North Da-
kota and in its political and economic
development. a. great deal of your ap-
prehension and lack of confidence has
been warranted" $
.@s Governor Nestos then told how the
men who organized the league set out
to secure control of the political ma
chinery Of the state with its patronage
and financial awards. in order to teach
for public consum ption the doctrines
and philosophy of socialism. Then,
he said. they get about. a nationwide

and dgoVernmental changes that they
were putting into effect in North Das

jI ''Thes hist ory OF; the last few years
WILL show thats;at NO time was there
any desire oryany real intention by
the league leaAers to serve the people
Of the state honestly and well,'' said
Governor Nestos.. 1T will show that
the main destIe of the leaders Of the
Ia 80 Na>~A Aek o< - rAP + al
ers was to serve themselves only and
their own political organization in the
hope that by means of the positions,
the power and the public and, private
funds they would be able to perpetu-
ate their organizations and to retain
their hold on the public purse and
public office.
Departmcnts Mismanaged.
;:.:.'The inevitable result was that there
was waste and mismanasement in
practically every department of the
public service. b
.Where the public business has
been SO Idisastrously managed it is
sometimes difficult to say how much
of the blame can justly be placed on

(, ly are nearly three-quarters of a mill
/ lion dollars, and that probable ad-
! ditionar loss before the loans and re-
deposits Of the Bank Of North Dakota
have been cleaned up may reach an
| other million.
There, is no question but that a
good share OF these losses occurred
because Of the woeful Incompetence
OF those who were placed in charge
OF so much of the public business. Ad-
/ ditionaly losses were suffered because
OF their dishonesty, selfishness and
greed. and "a large proportion because
Of the fact that those in public Office
sought frst to serve themselves and
their political factions rather than the
people Of the state, whom their serv-
ice was due" >

would not suffice. Many of the dis

In the winter months, too, they offer
as well as for snowshoeng.
Since the great dune pageant in 1917
there has been a notable Increase In
the pulling power of the dunes. In mid
summer nowadays the railroads from
Chicago to the region in question run
trains consisting of two or three sec
tions OF ten or twelve crowded cars
each.
Under the interstate-park
ment the cost Of upkeep of the park
would be reduced to a minimum. The
New York-New Jersey Palisade park
makes a small charge for food and
transportation and thus pays one-hals
the cost OF upkeep. For the matter Of
that, Indiana already has a small park
at Turkey Run, whic is not in this
region. and this park is quite self
supporting.

For an Illinois-Indiana interstate

In setting aside something like $4,000
