ELECTIONS IN
TWO COUNTIES
Death of House Members From
Morton and Renville Coun-
ties Forces Call

Special elections will be held No
vember 20 in the thirtieth and
forty third legislative districts,
Morton and Renville counties, to
select state representatives to fill
vacancies caused by death.
Announcement that he Lad issued
the call for the special elections was
made today by Governor A. G..
Sorlie following receipt of an opin-
ion from the attorney generals Of
flee that special elections arc re-
quired by the constitution.
His Interpretation Of the opinion,
the governor said, is that special
elections are required to fill the
vacancies regardless of whether he
calls Z special legislative session.
He reaffirmed, however, his de-
cision to 20 ahead with he special
session md intimated that he has
tentatively fixed the date for De-
cember IL.
The special election n. provides
that nominations for the vacant leg
islative posts must be filed with the
county auditor by November 8 and
the election will be held 20 days
later.
II 10 days arc granted to count
the votes and certify the winners it
would then be possible for the new
ly elected representatives to attend
a session opening December o, the
governor said. Sinoc that would be
Friday, however, it is expected that
the special session will not get un-
der way until the first q the sue
ceeding week. This would place the
legislature under the necessity of
getting done with its work in 10
days, as the governor has said it
should, or recessing over the Christ
mas holidays.

PRINCIPLES OF
MNARY-HAUGEN
BILL UPHELD
Oregon Senator Sees No Bet.
ter Plan Than That Embod-
led in Vetoed Measure

st. Paul, Oct. 27.-tF-Senator
Charles L. McNary of Oregon will
stand pat ON the principles of the
vetoed McNary- Haugen bill in the
next congressional fight for farm
relief legislation, he declared here
today when he stopped off, en- route
to Washington.
Senator McNary had planned to
spend the entire day here in confer
ence with northwest farm organiza-
tion leaders, but developments in
other matters in which he is inter-
ested in Washington compelled him
to abandon the plan.
Instead, Thomas E. eastman of
Owatonna, chairman of the north
west farm congress, boarded the
Oregon senator's train at Mime
apolis and rode with him to St. Paul,
discussing the attitude Of the north
west toward the future Of the Nc
Nary-Haugen farm relief plan.
Senator McNary said that he had
not yet been shown a better plan
than that embodied in the vetoed
measure, and until he is convinced
there is a better plan, he saw no rea-
son for abandoning the principles
Of the vetoed measure.
"There may be some slight
changes in the text or wording of
the bill worked out before it is again
submitted to congress-" he said,
"but / contemplate no alteration
that will change the essential prin-
ciples of the measure.
II am convinced that sentiment
throughout the country, particularly
in the agricultural areas most vital
" interested in the problem of farm
relief, is growing in favor of the
McNary-Haugen bill. In addition to
thousands Of letters, have had
personal conferences with farm
leaders from all parts Of the coun-
try. And everywhere / have been
given the same message-that the
people interested in agricultural vel
fare in this country are more insist
ent now than they have ever been
before for the type Of agricultural
aid legislation provided by the Nc
Nary-Haugen bill"

Realizing that such an exposition
creates much interest in corn grow

given it official recognition and the
last assembly appropriated 1000
annually for the biennium towards
the financing OF the project. Three
years ago the legislature appropriate

WILBUR DISPUTES
MAGRUDER CHARGE
Secretary Says Admirars
Figures on Productive Work
Do Not Include All.

BY the Associated Press.
Secretary Wilbur of the Navy has
taken issue with the accuracy of the
charge Of lack of economy in the ad-
ministration Of naval yards made by
Rer Admiral Thomas +. Magruder in
his recent magazine article.
Disputing the admiral's assertion
that for every dollar expended for re-
pairs in the Navy ii required nearly
four dollars for maintainance expenses
of the yards TO make the repairs. the
Secretary cited figures which he claim
ei. illustrated the incOrrectneSs of this
statement.
Al the same time Mr.. Wilbur de-
clined to disclose his views on the pos
sibility Of disciplinary action in the
case against the admiral or whether
the incident was considered closed by
him.
Wilbur Cites Production.
He announced that i'm response to
his request for naval reorganization
plan the admiral had replied that he
had no detailed plans for the re-
organization of the Navy and the
Navy Department"
The Secretary said in reviewing the
edmirals statement on the Yards
economy. that the total productive e
work at the yards and stations
amounted to S1O1 .00O, 900 against a to-
tai maintenance charge of $50, 1000. 900.
which was estimated at so cents for
maintenance for each dollar of produc-
tive work. For industrial yards alone,
Nr. Wilbur added. The productive work
was valued at $4,000 900 with a main.
tenance charge OF S35. .O00. 900. which
gave maintenance charge of 40 cents
for each dollar of production.
Holds Figures Inadequate.
The admiral based his conclusions.
MIR. Wilbur believed. on figures which
only referred to the charges for re-
pairs 10 vessels and repairs to ship
equipage. totaling $16.O00.O0O. The
Secretary declared there were "other
items Of productive work at navy
10 vessels. tests and experiments. re-
pairs TO equipage in stowage, opera
tions ard repairs Of aircraft and man.
ufacture OF materials" All these
charges, he added, must be considered
IN computation of the total productive
work of the yards and stations.
While Secretary Wilbur found alleg-
ed errors in the admiral's views, Pres.
ident Coolidge was represented yester-
day as believing some of the sugges-
gestfons In the magazine article may
he OF value in increasing the efficiency
OF the Navy. The President is sa id.
