Scores Legislators As Either
ignorant or lnsincere

What we need is more religion IN
politics and less politics IN religion,
according to r. E. Strutz, jamestown,
the only clergyman sitting In the
state legislature, who advanced that
theory in a radio address Friday eve
ming.
While ~conceding the fundamental
honesty Of the great majority Of leg
islators, he implied that the machina-
lions Of politics had been responsible
for the defeat of many bills of merit.
He said: I'VE have 113 members III
the house Of representatives; they are
divided into two parties and when-
ever a party measure comes up it
seems to me that it would be just as
we'll II Ill Of them would 60 home
and let the other two fight it out"
Speaking as the only minister
among the ranks of the legislators.
he said it is his hope that at the next
session OF the legislative assembly 5
per cent Of that body will be clergy
men.

with Bonner in the debate. Senators
J. p. Cain. of Stark, and w. d. Lynch.

ler's arguments. =
The committee report on the bill
was not presented during the order
Of. business for presenting such. re-
ports, but was called up later. on mo-
ton of Senator Frank E. Ployhar,
Barnes county, chairman Of the state
affairs committee. He moved for q
call Of the senate and every senator
was present for the occasion.
Ployhar made a motion for adopt
ing the majority report of the COM
mittee. and this wal followed by Sen
ator Hamilton'S motion for approval
of the minority report, around which
the debate centered.
Hamilton explained that the neces-
sity for re-districting came about
through congressional reapportion-
ment by which North Dakota loses
one of its three congressman.
He claimed that the eastern and
western parts Of the state were so di-
verse in their industrial activities that
1t would be difficult for men to rep
resent the state at large, as would be
the case should no e-districting leg
iSlation be enacted.
Senator Bonner then launched into
a strong plea for the bill, cautioning
several times against deciding the re-
districting issue ION a politica! basis
rather than in the interests Of the
people of this state"

contending that in many cases sheep,

If business through the activities OF
sheep killing dogs and that the depre-
dations of these animals represent a
financial loss running into thousands
of dollars annually.
Speaking of the failure OF the leg
islature to pass measures calculated
10 remove some of the tax burden
from the farmer, Strutz says, ITO me
if seems that the majority OF our leg
islators are either ignorant OF present
conditions or are not sincere In their
efforts to help the farmer. Unless
we help the farmer to get on his feet
it will not be long before the state Is
unable to collect taxes. Agriculture is

Remember this when you catch

should be divided for congressional
purposes along those lines. He called
attention to the industrial POSSIBLE
tiles Of western North Dakota. con-
tending that the western section Of
the state stands out as q unit.
Senator Hamilton then pointed to
the resources Of western North Da-
kota, where he said agriculture,
ranching and coal mining are the
important industries.

Around this keynote. Bonzer'S talk

Senator Fowler arose to answer

that North Dakota elected its con-

Battle of 20 Years
Ago Being Recalled

Debate In the North Dakota
senate Saturday over a bill for
congressional redistricting brought
back memories to six veterans of
the assembly.
They recalled the bitter con-
troversy that took place 20 years
ago when the state was divided
into three congressional districts.
Members Of the present senate,
who were In the assembly at that
time, are Senator's Frank E. Ploy-
har Of Barnes; T. N. Putnam of
Eddy-Foster; Walter Bond of
Ward: F. H. Hyland Of Ramsey:
