ing enterprises motivated by purely
selfish interests. Nye said.
It was this coterie of dyed 1.-THE
wool reactionaries which was respon-
sible for sending farm relief meas
ures back to committees to be shelved
indefinitely after progressives in the
senate had succeeded in bringing
them to the floor for a vote.
Raps Banker Industrialists
Greedy international bankers and
selfish industrialists were responsible
for the passage of the debt morato-
rum with Europe so that buying
power for industrial products might
be established abroad and Europeans
might be placed in position to pay
back debts to large private banking
houses in the United States, Nye de-
clared.
A proposed amendment to the bill
providing for debt moratorium for
the farmer in the hope that his buy
ing power might be restored was
promptly killed through the efforts
OF reactionary leaders, he asserted.
Not until the government comes to
realize that the United States is still
an agricultural country and that the
majority of its people still are de-
pendent on the farm for livelihood
WILL the government be founded on a
sane and true economic basis. the
senator said. No longer can the
farmer be sacrificed to industrialism
If the country is to survive.

Lynner Wants Clean-Out
Apparently he has forgotten,
Lynner said, that the people of
North Dakota on the 29th day of
June voted overwhelmingly in favor
of just that thing. voted in favor of
cleaning out the state house. So far
he differs from the vast majority of
the voters on that proposition. Is it
possible that the I. v. A. bosses al
ready have convinced him Of what
he ought or ought not to do?"
Lynner charged that the Demo-
Gratis had taken over a large slice
of the Republican platform as their
own. He said that panaceas offered
by the opposition were the same as
were incorporated by the Republic
cans and offered to the voters. Spe-
officially he referred to tax reduction,
curtailment In the number OF state
boards and commissions. and the
state industrial program.
Lynner referred to DePuy's pro-
posal to curtail grain production as
visionary and unavoidable. He spoke
Of the experience of the Republican
candidates in governmental affairs
and declared that the Democratic
ticket was almost to a man without
experience In the political condrct
Of the state.
Ole H. Olson urged that past an
tagontsms between the farmers and
the business men of the towns be
forgotten. He cautioned against per-
hitting selfish outside interests to
come into the state to stir up in
ternal dissension for their own per-
Sonal ends.
Pointing to the present economic
status OF the farmer, he asked for
the united support Of the town and
the country in the hope that some
thing might be accomplished to al
leviate an intolerable economic stu
alton.
