MONDELL SCORES
congress- CRITICS
Badgering of Legislation
Long Popular Pastime,
Leader Declares.

Reviewing the achievements of Con-
gress. Representative Mondell. the
republican leader, hit back in the
House yesterday at its critics. De-
claring that Congress afforded the
most alluring of all fields for criti-
cism by those denied "by popular
will" place therein, Mr.. Mondell add
ed that those. disappointed be-
cause Congress declined to accept
their views or accede to their de-
mands, found 'it much easier to damn
Congress than to defend their own
position"
With those who criticize Congress
for purely partisan reasons regard
less of the facts Mr.. Mondell linked
newspaped editors who iEmured in
editorial sanctums, out of an entire
lack of national viewpoint and COM
plete isolation from the pulse of ma
tional sentiment. consciously or un-
consciously reflect the selfish and pro-
vincial sentiment which filters
through the editorial keyhote."
Opportunity to Clap.
Without mentioning names. Mr..
Mondell declared that, as usual. Con-
gress had been assailed by "a con-
siderable number of people and from
points of view and opinion"
Criticism and the badgering of
Congress is and has long been a
popular pastime,'' the republican
leader asserted. Those who have a
crouch and for one reason or another
are not disposed to take it out on
individuals turn with relief and salts
faction to the opportunity afforded OF
Slapping Congress by and large and
as whole. This does not preclude
those indulging in such pastime from
apologizing If the occasion requires
to one or other of the two bodies or
any individual member who may take
exception to the criticism
The country, however, he declared
would judge Congress by what it
does rather than what is said about
it,
Cites Budget Record.
Mr.. Mondell pointed to the splendid
record of economy in appropriations
under the budget system.
Up to this time Congress" he said
has placed upon the statute books
:s9N separate laws, of which 301 are
public and 81 private, including
claims. In addition the House has
considered and passed 2T6 bills. OF
which 12S are public and las private.
seventeen Senate bills also have pass
ed the House, but have not reached
the point of actual agreement. thus
making the House average of two
and one-third bills for each legisIa-
tive day"
The "worthiness or capacity" of a
Legislative body. Mr.. Mondell as
serted, could not be Judged by the
volume of its work. The House, he
added, had been extraordinarily dill
gent "and sound. intsttigent and en-
lightened in its judgment"
Heading the list of achievements
was the tax revision. which, he said,
in the nature of things. could not
have satisfied everybody"
The interest-bearing national debt,
Mr.. Monden said had been reduced a
billion dollars.

FRAZIER MAY GET
5000 PLURALITY
North Dakota Independent
Forces Suffer Losses in =
Legislature.
By the Associated Press.

Dy tue hboOCihtcu IIcsss
FARGO, N. D.. July with the
nomination of Gov. r. A. Nestos and
Lynn ]. Frazier for governor and
senator respectively on the republi-
can ticket definitely assured, interest
today was directed to the nomina-
tions for other state officers voted on
in Wednesdays primary.
The probable plurality of Coy. Nes-
tos, Independent. is set in independ-
ent sources at from 5000 to 1900,
and the same sources place the
plurality of Frazier, non-partisan. at
1000 to 5000, as against the $1,000
lead the league heads claim for the
latter.
1t is admitted in league quarters
that defeat of other independent state
officers seeking denomination would
result only from very material de-
f1ections, and in available returns on
these nominations there has been no
evidence of such turnovers.
Senator Porter j. McCumber, whose
defeat by Frazier had been conceded
by his friends, showed unexpected
strength in some of the strong league
precincts, whereas hefan far behind
Nestos in some strong Independent
districts. McCumber was not indorsed
by the independent state convention.
Inc T dTSo roIu uIn, which supporteu
Nestos and other independent candi-
dates, declares the congressional con-
tests in the republican party resulted
in the nomination of all Incumbent
o. B. Burtness. independent, in the
first district; George Young, inde-
pendent, second district, and James
Sinclair, Bipartisan. in the third.
Leaguers have not conceded the
nomination of Young.
The independent forces suffered
some losses in the legislature. They
lost two representatives in the Golden
Valley district, another in Sargent
one in Dickey, one in western Walsh,
and available reports have shown no
counter gains. League candidates lost
state senate seats in Trail and Pierce
counties.

SAYS BRICKS FLY
FROM GLASS HOUSE
|. W. w. Official Scores Sen
ator Myers for Criticising
Illinois Over Mine Disaster.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, July 1.-Picturing United
States Senator Henry L. Myers of
Montana as standing in the door of
a glass house throwing brickbats at
passersby, Harry Feinberg. secretary
of the general defense committee Of
the l. w. W.. made public letter to
the senator yesterday criticizing his
|denunciation of the Herrin. ILL.,, mine
massacre.
Mr.. FeinberS recalled in his letter
the lynching of Frank Little. l. W.
w. organizer. at Butte, in 1917: the
death of 164 miners in a fire at Butte
in 1916, and the killing of two strike
pickets at Butte in April, 1920.
There is no record, he said, that
Senator Myers ever protested against
these occurrences in his own state,
or did anything to bring the guilty to
justice. Part of the letter follows:
There is no question that the Her
rim killings were horrible, and 1t was
reprehensible that the mine owners
there attempted to take bread and
butter out of the mouths of the work
ing men and their family through the
use of thugs and machine guns.
But whatever the horror or
wherever the blame may lie. criticism
of the state of Illinois, as a disgrace
to the nation comes with question
able propriety from you as a senator
from Montana. Your own common
wealth has a dark and bloody record
as destroyer of human lives.
The mine owners responsible for
those 164 deaths were never pun
ished- Did you ever make an effort
to have them punished?
Thugs employed by the Anaconda
Copper Mining Company in Butte fired
in cold blood on unarmed pickets
traversing a public road in daylight
in April. 1920. Two of the pickets
died Nobody was ever punished. Did
you issue any protest then? The un-
restrained lawlessness of copper
corporation gunmen in Montana has
long been pattern for mobs in other
commonwealths"
