Prior to the adjournment Of Cos
gross Oh June Z, resolution from
the joint committee on printing was
adopted, providing that the last is
sue of the Record, for the current
session Of Congress, should be pub.
lished mot later than Tuesday,
June "a, 1924"
Then, quite casually, Senator
George H. Moses Of New Hampshire
asked for and received permission to
extend his remarks in the Record. J"
This "leave" is permission to have
published in the record statements
not made on the floor of Congress
or speeches CT documents by others
,han members of Congress. 1t is a
favor normally granted by courtesy,
without dispute or discussion, and
was accorded Moses without objee-
ton.
With those two moves made, ;hr
cards were all stacked for the little
game ahcad.
s.
The Republican convention at
Cleveland was convened on Tues
day, June 10. Congress was adj
journed, and no more leaves to
print could be granted.
On Wednesday, June 18, follow
ing the Republican convention,
Moses submitted to the Public Print
er, as the extension of remarks"
Tor which permission had been grant
ed the Republican keynote speech
IF Theodore E. Burton. 1t was
July inserted in the Record for that
date
Tins publication in the Record
makes Burton's keynote speech
eligible for mailing, under govern
meht frank In other words, it M
'bles the Republican campaign com
nIttce to have it sent, postage free,
70 every voter in the country.
Thousands upon thousands of del
lars in postage will thus be saved to
he party's treasury. The cost will
&c borne by the government, from
taXes collected from Democrats as

railroad domination" of the State
under the control of Alex Mckenzie,
Jud La Moure, c. b. Little and others
of the close corporation then in the
saddle. To this cause for protest was
added an inefficient enforcement of
the prohibition law and even at times
its open fouting by nominees of the
ring and the development OF scandals
of administration at the State house
in Bismarck, where State property
was not guarded well as
it might have been, and where the
State officers appeared only in time
to draw their salary warrants, leav-
ing the work to deputies and clerks.
In heated conventions at Grand
Forks, Minot and jamestown, the in
surgenfs were worsted by the Stall
warts. and a demand rose for an anti
pass law and a primary election. The
steam roller f1attened out the in
surgents, and this seemed the mo-
ment for the Democrats to score.

both Rumania and Jugoslavia are
said to have gained a certain degree
of sympathy in Warsaw, where the
Poles consider any recognition Of the
Soviet government unwise, they dis
trusting the Soviet regime with the
most ardent Of distrusts. According
to advices, Mussolini has promised
the smaller powers of the little en-
tente a policy of support more in
accordance with the ideas of the
Belgrade and Bucharest governments.
In case this report is accurate un-
questionably the new, alignment will
have a far-reaching effect upon Frances
future dominance in continental power.
Musselini is pledged to. the. restora-
ton of Italian influence on. the con-
tinent, a thing spurned by other powers
previous to the time Of his taking con-
troll. Mussolini has more and more be-
come q thing to be reckoned with in
the foreign offices Of other nations, and
in case the Italian premier, following
the lines of general antipathy of the
Italians toward the French, is able to
break down the little entente and gain
support in the formulation and per-
petuation of policies affecting southeast
ern Europe, then Italy's voice will be
countenanced more and more.
Notwithstanding the fact that Mus
solini is striving to increase Italy's
power, nevertheless it is a fact that
Italy turns to England before France,
her representatives having stood with
the British in many decisions directly
to the disinterest of the French. notably
IN the Rhineland and Ruhr. AS a con-

the Imagination of man, Burke ap-
peared on the platform or stage. But
when he tossed his long name OF
black hair-now threaded with gray
and swung those long black-sleeved
arms. the crowd forgot the clothes
and only remembered the glowing
eyes and the equally burning words
of lyon Bjorke," as his Scandinavian
admirers called him. No ono thought
it possible he could win-a Demo-
crat opposed to a man OF the type
Of Z. Y. Sarles. banker of Hillsboro,
who had the presence and an air ana
whose clothes acted as clothes should,
backed as he was by the political
powers for reelection to the office
of governor. But in November, 1906,
John Burke was elected governor by
a. plurality Of 10000, and took his
oath of office the following Janu-
ary. though the entire Democratic
ticket behind him was defeated.
Deliver the Goods.
Backed by friendly legislature,
which, while not Democratic, was In
spirit insurgent, Gov. Burke had the
satisfaction of signing the laws
whose passage he advocated and
promised in his campaign. He de-
livered the goods, they said, and
when he asked for reelection in 1908
it was granted to him. In 1910 there
was grave question of sending the
pitcher too often to the WELL" and
rows within the Democratic ranks
over patronage had broken the
smooth unity and teamwork of the
party. In the end Burke ran and
the second miracle occurred. He was
elected for the third time-a Demo-
crat In a Republican State.
At the close OF his third term a
campaign was started to make him
Democratic candidate for President.
He swept the State again and was
given the State delegation to Balti-
more in 1912. There he made pos
sible the nomination Of Woodrow
Wilson by being the first to with
draw in favor of the future Presi-
dent and was given 1861 votes for
the vice presidential nomination, but.
refusing to pursue his advantage. had
his friends move to make II unani-
nous for Marshall Following the
election of Woodrow Wilson he was
offered and accepted the position of
United States treasurer. which he
held for eight years. Among his
duties was that of signing" his name

recorded, interviewed Speaking at a
Democratic conference in st. Paul in
June, 1911, he recorded the reverses:

think of my defeats my good friend
Bryan seems like an amateur"
These were minor defeats in county,

The triumph of John Burke on last

of the politician and statesman, runs

the site of the town of Harper, Feb

school Of Iowa State University in
September. 1884, and on graduation,
two years later. Joined the law firm
of his brother. Thomas c. Burke. at
Des Moines. The call OF the West
was then sounding strongly to the
younger generation and in 1888 young
John Burke cut home ties and set
out for Rolette County, N. Oak, where
he swung a mean shingle to the
breezes of the best ventilated State
in the Union.
Appeal In His Voice.
Thousands of North Dakotans who
have heard him in campaign argu-
ments and speeches know the quality
of appeal that is in his voice. 1t has
q VelVety Qeptn, a OdSS purr lHdt
overcomes antagonisms, and many
time those who came to heckle re-
mained to root. The voice, plus a
shrewd knowledge of human nature
and law, put the young attorney at
the front Of the bar. His ability as
trial lawyer was quickly recognized
in the new country and his practice
grew until 1t spread over the State.
Whether 1t was before a judge and
jury or at a convention, the word 60
ing around that John Burke was to
talk assured an audience. 1t was not
long until the small town was too
small for him and he moved to the
nearby metropolis, Devils Lake. where
he formed a partnership with Henry
G. Middaugh. now in California.
1t may be said here, as illumina-
tion of what may come, that Burke
had not a calculating eye for busi-
ness. A distressed or troubled citi-
zen would hunt Burke up and extract
from him hundreds of dollars worth
of valuable legal advice that Burke

Confusion Over Law Provisions Likely

lists containing the name and the
post Office address of each person
making an income tax return
together with the amount Of the In
come tax paid by such person"
The only essential change in the
act of 1924 from the act Of 1921 is
the addition Of tho words together
with the amount of income tax paid
by such persons"
Permission to publish income tax
returns, together with the amounts
paid, Is claimed under this last sec
tion of the law since that section
contains the words land made availa-
BILE to public inspection" 1t is clear
that the penalty of the fine and i'm
prisonment applies only to stockhold-
ers of corporations who reveal in
formation obtained.
However, section 3167 of the same
act makes 1T unlawful for any col
lector or other officer of the Govern
ment to make known any information
obtained; "and it shall be unlawful
for any person to print or publish in
any manner not provided by law, any
income return or any part thereof"
under penalty Of q fine not exceeding
$1,000, or imprisonment not exceeding
one year, or both: and eft the offender
is an officer or employe Of the United
States, he shall be dismissed from Of
nee or discharged from employment"
Action Taken by Attorney General.
The Attorney General has brought
suit under this act against a Baiti-
more newspaper, to interpret the
statute and reconcile, If necessary
and possible, the apparently contra
dictory sections of the act.
! Was it the intention of Congress to
permit publication Of personal income
tax returns? Certainly there is no
specific permission.
What is meant by public records?
What is meant by the words made
available to public inspection" with
qualifications?
Advocates OF public printing of the
returns claim that the use Of these
words gives newspapers the right to
inspect and print; and that this per-
mission invalidates the section pro-
hibiting printing or publication.
Opponents Of publication state that
Congress never gave permission to
print in the public newspapers: in
fact, specifically prohibited the print
ing of the, returns "in any manner
whatever not provided by law" Also
they claim that the commissioner of
internal revenue is directed to
make available to public inspection"
with this qualification-''in such man
ner as he may determine"
Obviously the courts must deter
mine what Is meant by public rec
ords," and whether those words ap-
ply to records from which an income
tax In figured. as well a. to ordinary
public records, such as real estate II.
