NORBECK BACKS
PRESENT METHOD
DIRECT PRIMARY WILL SOJii-
DAY BE USED TO ELECT
PRESIDENT, HE SAYS.

Washington, d. c.. July 25-I do
not favor a repeal of the primary
law for candidates for governor,
senator and congressman. In fact,
| believe we shall within few years
be selecting our presidential candi
dates by a primary election.
The primary is a forward step
and is an Improvement upon the old
convention system. hTe fact that it
has some shortcomings not anticipat-
ed by its ardent promoters, only
puts it in the same class as all othre
reform legislation.
/ believe solution lies in adopt
ing such changes in the law as eX-
perience dictates. The fact we do
not entirely get away front he ma
nipulation of skillful political boss
es and that sometimes even under
the primary law voters find it diff
cult TO give expression to their
wishes is no reason for going back
to system that was worse.
1t seems to me that the best solu-
tion of shorter ballot, under which
the most important officers only
are nominated at primary cleo
ton.
With a short ballot ii is entirely
practicable to provide for first and
second choice. T his plan would
make it impossible for the minority
element in a party to win over the
majority as is now often done By
dividing the tsrength of the minor
ity by encourag ging a multiplicity o.
candidates to split the vote.

Huron Women on
Picket Duty

Huron, July 25-That the women
of Huron are taking an active part
in the strike here and giving physi-
cal as well as moral support to the
strikers, was evidenced when wom-
en- were found on the picket lines.
AT general meeting of the strik-
ing craftsmen the matter of the re-
cent injunction served on strike Of
ficials of Huron, Pierre and Brook
ings was taken up. At the conclu-
sion of the meeting Spokesman Per
sy Phillips made the following state
ment:
I'VE maintain that the injunction
as it pertains to Huron is eminently
unfair and we still hold that we are
law abiding citizens and free moral
agents, and as such expect to con-
duet ourselves as we have since the
walkout nearly three weeks ago.

Gypsies Resuscitate
Boy Thought Drowned

Des Moines, Ia, July 25-That
gypsies have way of bringing life
back to a person apparently dead
from drowning was demonstrated
here when the 10-year-old son of j.
d. Seeman, state factory inspector.
was dragged from the waters of a
swollen stream after he had gone
down for the last time. The gypsies
who were camped not far away, ar
rived on the scene soon after the boy
was pulled out. He had, in fact,
been under water quite little time.
The gypsies at once took charge, and
while one of them held the boy up
by his heels full length another
worked his stomach and lungs Wig
orously, as the water poured out of
the boys mouth. In short time
respiration returned.

SHOULD GO SLOW
IN DEVELOPMENT
FARMERS AND OTHERS ARR
WARNED AGAINST ACTIVE
TIES CREAMERY PRO
MOTERS.

Brookings, July 25-"Creamery
promotion like many other commun.
ity undertakings should be given
sufficient time for consideration in
order TO ascertain il the right con-
ditions for success are present"
says A. p. Ryger, state dairy ex-
pert, in discussing the professional
creamery promoter who has come
with the great strides in the develop
ment of dairying in South Dakota in
recent years.
Considering that the failure of
many creameries in this state can
be laid to premature promotion il
behooves any community wanting a
creamery to first get reliable in
formation along such lines as the
amount of cream produced in the
community, the possibilities for har-
monious cooperation among the pro-
ducers and the actual cost of com-
plete creamery.
Creamery promotion should or
iginate from an actual need and de-
sire within the community rathen
than from selfish interests from out
side, which have no other interest
| than the profit to be derived in the
venture. Years ago wnen many
| creameries were promoted and few
succeeded, there was some excuse
| for farmers and business men to be
taken in by the creamery promot-
er, as the creamery business was
then so new that there were no pre-
cedents to refer to for comparisons
Neither were there public dairy bu-
reaus of departments for consulta-
| tion in such matters.
To-day there is no need for TAX
ing chances. however, as there are
many avenues through which reli
able and unselfish information may
be had for the asking. Past years
with their failures and successes In
cooperative creamery operation ha!
1 taught us much from which definite
conclusions may be drawn to hell
make creamery promotion much les
hazardous in htesfuture.
1.-The state, through its dairy ant
| extension departments, stands read.
to assist any community in natter
of dairy and creamery promotion TO
the mere asking"

Sees No Need
of Censorship

Los Angeles, July 25-Will III.
Hays, former postmaster general
and now head of the Motion Picture
Producers e. Distributors associa-
ton, here today for a weeks study in
the stronghold of the industry, said
to interviewers that "the principle
of freedom upon which this nation
was founded makes public censor
ship of press. pulpit, film or spoken
word virtually an impossibility
Mr.. Hays predicted "state wide OF
nation wide censorship will fail in
everything it undertakes. 1t has not
been done successfully and never
will be. Too many people who know
nothing about the business are nam
ed on censorship boards. We are go
ing to obviate the necessity of cen
sorship.

Jump from Car
Just i'm Time

Brookings, July 25-Mr. and Mrs.
j.. w. Lane and two children, of
this city, had a miraculous escape
from death with their car when il
was struck by passenger train at
a crossing west of the city.
Because of high weeds near the
crossing they were unaware of the
approaching train and their great
danger until they were squarely on
the crossing.
Then the engine of the car went
dead" and they barely had time to
jump from the car before il was
struck by the locomotive.
The car was carried a short dis
tance on the pilot and then hurled
into deep ditch beside the track
The car was almost a complete
wreck.

.LABORER LOOTS
FARM AVID GOES
TAKES WATCH AND $40 WITH
HIM ON FLIGHT FROM
PLACE NEAR GROTON.

Groton, July 25-Chester Luke.
of Gem township, was in Aberdeen
in company with Deputy Sheriff.
John Frommell, of Groton, looking
for an absconding laborer from the
Luke farm.
A few weeks ago Mr.. Luke re-
ceived letter from a man who had
worked for him last season asking il
he needed his services this harvest
and threshing time. The farmer
wrote in reply that he had secured a
man for harvest, but that if the last
years man wanted to come and
make himself useful about the farm
until work began in earnest he could
have a full falls job at the farm of
Mr.. Luke and his father-in-law, AL
bert Schott. Accordingly the appli-
cant for work came and on his ar
rival was set at labor.
Chester Luke occupies the Lewis
School place short distance from
the farm of Albert School.
On Saturday the farmer went ov-
er to the farm of Albert School leay-
Ing his hired man in the field at
work and the newly arrived helper
choring about the place.
When Mr.. Luke returned home
the man of last year was not to be
found which aroused suspicion and
search of the premises was immed-
lately made. 1t was discovered that
a watch belonging to Mr.. Luke was
missing also $40 was gone from the
hired man.
The farm lies on the "Jim" river,
the house being on the east side. A
boat usually left on the east bank
had been used by the absconder to
cross the river and had been left on
the west side. From it it is surmis-
ed that the missing man crossed Ia
the west side and left for parts un-
known.

OUTLAWS
FOR NINE YEARS
MINNESOTAN GETS PROTECTION
OF Il. s. AFTER ENDURING
MANY HAZARDS.

Kingsdale, Mimi, July 25--For
nine years Charles r. Grace has
fought outlawry virtually alone in
this little settlement hidden in the
pine timber.
In the last three years moonshin-
ers have tried to run him out. Three
months ago in. personal assault,
they broke his jaw. Three weeks
ago they burned his lumber camps,
valued at $4,000. Last week they
dynamited his $4,000 hotel, en-
dangering the lives of Grace, his
wife and four children, and guests
asst Saturday night they shot up the
village with revolvers and rifles,
riding horseback through the town.
Today Grace had the power of the
entire federal government behind
him. Prohibition officers started a
quiet investigation. A United Press
correspondent learned that the
moonshiners are now camped in Dry
Run, three miles southeast OF Mark
vile, and nine miles below here
Their rendezvous is almost inacces-
sable, and is enclosed by sentries
They number about 25. Their stills
and moonshine supplies are conceal
ed in deep thickets. The federal
agents cannot touch them without
evidence. They are after the evi'
.dence

FUEL CONTROL
PLAN ACCEPTED
DETAILS OF DISTRIBUTION AND
PRICE MAINTENANCE BE-
ING WORKED OUT.

Washington, ID. c., July 25-Op-
orators from the producing districts
of six states in conference with Sec
retary Hoover, agreed in principle
with the administrations plan for
maintaining prices and insuring fuel
distribution through strike emerg
ency.
Representatives of coal dealers
were present at the opening of the
conference and it was thought that
their cooperation could be sought
in the effort to prevent advancing
fuel charges during the continuance
of the present situation.
The operators, it was stated after
the conference this morning, had
agreed to the general proposals as
outlined by Secretary Hoover, sub
ject to the approval of their respect
i've districts. but had raised some
objections to the legal features of
the scheme. The legal phases were
given the approval of the depart
ment of justice in an opinion sent
to Secretary Hoover by Attorney
General Daugherty while the con-
ference was in session.
Immediately upon adjournment of
the first meeting the chairmen of
the committee of operators repre-
senting the various districts went
into session with Mr.. Hoover to draft
the details of the coal control plan,
which is to be submitted to the full
conference.
Meeting in executive session, the
conference considered two propos-
ais laid before them by Mr.. Hoover
One provides for tightening of exist
ing voluntary agreements to main
tain fair prices and the other for es-
tablishment of coal pools in the pro-
ducing district for preferential dis
tribution under the authority of the
interstate commerce commission.
Efforts of the drafting committee,
it was learned, were to be aimed al
framing a scheme for emergency
coal control which would not run
counter to the law relating to monop-
olies and conspiracies in restraint oi
trade.

her early girlhood.
Captain Fred Bell master of the
yacht Teddy, is designing a combi-
nation speed and flying boat, which he
feels sure of making a success. He
will equip it with 10O-H. P. engine
to give it a speed of at least forty
miles an hour. At any rate, he will
guarantee that speed. To this end,
he will attach wings to each side OF
the boat in such a manner and of
such a character as will lift all of the
boat except, possibly, the rudder and
propeller, entirely out of the water as
it skins along the surface acquiring
speed. Certain original features of
the craft will be patented.
The yacht Powell, of which Fred
Quednau is captain, has been equip

bot, of New York, who has the
Powell engaged as a tender for his
