GOV. S0RLIE
TELLS EAST
ABOUT n. D.
People There Now Realize Da-
k0tans Are Real Folks
Says Executive

People in the east are beginning to
realize that the people in North Dako-
ia are "real folks" Governor A. G.
Sorlie declared today upon his return
from q two-weeks' trip through the
east. Mrs. Sorlie accompanied the
governor on the trip.
Governor and Mrs. SOrlie left
Armistice day for Chicago, where the
governor delivered an address on
North Dakota over station WMAQ Of
the Chicago Daily News on November

Washington, where the governor con-
suited with several officials about
highways.
While in Chicago, Governor and
Mrs. SOrlie were invited by Mayor
Dever to attend the ball given in hon
or of Queen Marie, but because of
their limited time they were unable

oldest bakery in the United States,
the Junker bakery, which uses DakO-
ta made flour exclusively. This con-
cern, the governor said, sets its own
prices on its products because it has
exclusive products and builds on
quality.
The mills in the east do not know
about North Dakota hard spring
wheat, the governor said, and they
all use winter wheat. He expressed
the hope that they would soon be
grinding Dakota wheat because Of the
4act that they can get uniform
grade Of wheat at all times.

folks out here after Rearing only
about our political affairs. predict
chat when the agricultural section out
here is rightly advertised, 1t will have
lived through its difficulties"
