HANNA ISSUES
STATEMENT0F
HIS POLICIES
Favors Deep Waterways =
Agricultural Relief-Will
Serve the People

l.. Il. Hanna Of Fargo. nominated
as the Republican candidate for Unit
ed States senator at Devils Lake yes
tcrday, issued the following statement
of policies:
II am deeply appreclative Of the
honor which the state Republican CON
vention at Devils Lake has conferred
upon me and fully appreciate the re-
spOnsibilities which come with it.
There is much that can be done
by earnest effort to bring about con-
ditions in North Dakota and in the
northwest. We need to bend every
effort towards securing the cooper
alton and help Of the cast in favor Of
the deep waterways project. The
great good that il would do for the
northwest would in the cndhelp the
east because Of the increased pros
perity and purchasing power which
would come to us.
Changes in Immigration Laws
Eve need more men and women
on our land and the best place to get
them is from Northern Europe. Our
federal immigration laws should be
amended to provide that a certain
percentage of those from Northern
Europe lmmigrating to this country
should be people who had followed
agricultural pursuits in the old world
for they naturally would follow the
same line Of calling when coming to
the new. and while ! do not believe
in opening up new land for cultiva-
ton, yet we do need more people to
properly cultivate the land we now
have under cultivation. and a move
ment from Europe of agricultural
people while not injuring union labor.
would provide people to properly farm
our land and would solve the problem
Of farm labor.
1--WE need to give earnest attention
to the flood control of the Heart, the
Missouri and The Mouse rivers and
to the restoration Of the waters OF
our large lakes.
Outside Capital Needed
1--WE should encourage outside capi-
and business interests to come to
North Dakota to develop packing
plants, sugar beet factories. briquet-
ting Of coal. manufacture of clay pro
ducts and every other possible ave
/ nue. of industrial life that our State
may be more evenly balanced as be-
tween agriculture and manufacture.
Much can be done for agriculture
in finding ways Of providing a mar
ket for and Of disposing Of our sur
plus agricultural products anC
| through the United States Bureaus o
Commerce and Agriculture in bring
ing information to our farmers Of tn
worlds needs SO that we may hol
these surpluses down to the minimum
Il am in full accord and have ab'd

his advisors believing that they ar
working earnestly for the eommo
good. If given the opportunity VII
work with them for economy and TO
all legislation that will be helpful an
beneficial to the people of our coun

Prohibition Becoming More

BrC0khart of Iowa

Washington, Feb. 2G.--LP -prohi-
bition was "Our greatest victory in
the world war" and also was "foisted
upon war crazcd people" in the re-
spectiyc opinions Of Senator Brook
hart, Republican, Iowa, and Senator
Edwards, Democrat, New Jersey.
While they debated the sub iect last
night over the radio, Mrs. Mary T..
Norton. Democrat, representative
from New Jersey, was criticizing pro-
hib.tion in n speech at another radio
station. The count for and against
prohibition was cvencd when Wayne
Is. Wheeler. general counsel for the
Anti-Saloon league, issued a state
ment assailing the views Of Senator
Edwards.
The New Jersey senator gave much
of his time to an attack on tho
league. calling Mr.. Wheeler the "arch
traitor Of American liberty, freedom
of thought and action" and declaring
that mot even the sacred courts Of
our land are free Of the poisonous
taint and the leagues filthy hands
and breath
Whecler's Statement Called Lie
He termed an "incxcusablc lie." Mr.
Whcclcr's recent statement that pro-
hibition has been success and ad-
dcd that the league officials "pecwce
mind and mental incapacity for
grasping facts make him immune to
convincing proof" that prohibition is
a failure.
Mr.. Wheeler replied that like u
lawyer whose case is bad, Senator Ed
wards abuses his opponents with
names like arch traitor while ut II
recent wet meeting he referred to
himself and his associates as 'chaste
Pcrcivals' who seek to fill the holy
grail with 2.75 per cent beer
He said Senator Edwards "unre-
deemed pledge to make New Jersey
as wet as the Atlantic ocean lrankles
in his mind
Any Vote Would Favor Drys
Senator Brookhart declared the uni
vcrsal ratification Of the 18th amend
ment was proof = that the majority of
the people desired prohibition. He
said prohibition was becoming more
efficient daily and that if any modi-
fication of the Volstead act is effect
ed it will be to make it stronger. The
Iowa senator predicted that any vote
on the subject in congress would be
overwhelmingly in favor Of the drys.

said the most serious question now is
the harm being done mentally and
physically to boys and girls.

THE Greater North Dakota associa-
tiOn is the result Of a group of men
having q vision of q greater North
Dakota and believing that there was
need of state development associa-
ton to make their vision reality"
Mr.. Carley declared. "Thosc Of us
who had been identified with civic
organizations could understand that
it would be tremendous task to
create such IN association. In that
we were not mistaken, but IL is graft
flying at this time, some seven months
after We first met TO organize, to
realize that such state association
is no longer an idea, but is organized
and functioning.
