Railroad Asked to
State Position on
Political Activity

taken one decision into court, this be-
ing our Case No. 2255, better known
as the "Jobbing Rate Case" wherein
we reduced jobbing rates to and from
II jobbing points. This case went
directly to the supreme court of the
United States and our. decision was
upheld. This record would indicate
that our findings in hundreds OF
truck, bus and railroad service cases
were based upon sufficient evidence to
justify the findings.
I'VE will agree that any individual
has right to support or oppose any
candidate for office without being
criticized. I also believe that a cor
poration has the same right, but do
think candidate, and the public, are
entitled to know who is sponsoring
18th hour propaganda for or against
any certain candidate. In this in
stance, if the several roads and ex-
press company are not sponsoring the
18th hour propaganda which will be
put out on their stationery, would
be pleased to hear from you by wire.
If you are not back of this, 1t must
be sponsored by the I. v. A. faction
through Northern Pacific station
agent Dahl, and Northern Pacific
Travelling Freight Agent Harry
Marsh.
BE assured that whatever your re-
ply may be, my vote on all future
decisions will be as it has been in the
past-in accordance with the evidence
in the case.
Thanking you for prompt reply,
yours very truly"

Bonner Launches
Attack on Jones

He said Nye was active in droutl
relief work before Shafer even ap
peared aware that a serious condition
existed and extolled the work of tn
Junior senator in this connection.
He asked his hearers to observe
if Mrs. Cooley, when she comes to the
district, rides in the car of a statt
employe who is charging mileage fol
the trip, asserting that this had beer
done in other districts. If she ar.
ranges a dinner for the women of the
town. he said. the voters should Stor
and think where the money Is com.
ing from which pays for it.
Cites Record in Detail
Bonner cited Jones record in detail
to show how he had ignored the in,
terests of his own district and TIT
state as a whole in voting against thu
reapportionment and other bills a
the last legislative session and how hi
had gone back on his own conviction.
and promise in doing so.
In a dramatic description of hap
penings on the senate floor the day
the vote was taken, Bonner said the
maneuvering which switched Jone!
from supporter to an antagonist o.
the redistricting bill was managed b.
Senator Frank Ployhar of Barne!
county, majority senate leader.
Rings Up Governor
After other attempts to induce
Jones to change his mind had failed
Bonner charged. Ployhar had the tele.
phone messenger of the senate get
Governor George F. Shafer on the
telephone and then to call Jones tC
the senate end of the wire.
Bonner said he knew something was
afoot and followed Jones into the
telephone booth, listening to tbs
conversation at Jones end Of the
wire. When the conversation ended
Bonner said. Jones refused to talk to
him about the redistricting issue, the
vote on which had been delayed pen-
ding a further effort of the majority
leaders to whip Jones into line.
After Jones conversation with the
governor, Bonner said, recess wa;
called and Ployhar and j, P, Cain
senator from Stark county, called
Jones into a conference. At its ex-
piration the senate reconvened, the
roll was called and Jones voted with
the administration.
May Hurt Westerncrs
The result, Bonner asserted may be
to leave the western part of the state
without representation in the election
of congressman at large this year. He
said it is not improbable that the
state may be represented this year b.
two men from the city of Fargo.
Challenging the I. v. A. campaign
assertions that Senator Gerald P.
Nye has not cooperated with the adj
ministration at Washington, Bonzer
said Nye could not do so and honest
ly represent the people of North Da-
kota. He said the administration"
represents the same forces which op-
posed the McNary Haugen bill, the
debenture, equalization fee and the
Frazier farm finance bill and that to
cooperate with the administration
would have meant selling out the in
terestS of North Dakota citizens.

SOUTH ST. PAUL REVIEW


South st. Paul, June 25.-(AP-U
S. D. A.)-A series of uneven price
advances carried hogs to the highest
levels since late March, Friday

week. Better 100 to 230 Id. weights
sold at $50 to 4.20, other medium and
heavyweights at $50 to 400, 40 to
100 lb. averages unevenly $50 to 400

lies Bullish

Chicago, June 25.-P)-Renewe,!
strength developed in grain values
late Saturday after wheat had saggcJ
to exactly even with the seasons low

Rallies in securities were a late
bullish factor. Word that the senate
had made sharp cut in operating
funds of the farm board also was a
stimulating influence, together with
reports of harvest delays southwest OIL
account of persistent wet weather.

Bearish sentiment pervaded the
wheat pit. and rallies in price lacked
vigor. Absence of aggressive buying
was apparent, with indifference of
foreign markets and continued favor
able prospects as to spring wheat,
both domestic and Canadian. Appre-
hension as to rust and grasshoppers
was minimized by assertions that &C
tual damage to date was neglible.
Latest cable advices were to the
effect that Germany and France had
excellent crop prospects, and that
should these two countries come
through with large yields the outlook
would be unpromising for much in
creased business in wheat from North
America. Bears contended unless
Europe experienced unfavorable har-
vest weather optimism on wheat
prices appeared out of place. Corn
and oats mainly paralleled the action
of wheat.
Provisions were responsive to firm
ness of hog values.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

New York June 25.-(H)-The stock
markets dullest week in eight years
closed Saturday, leaving a negative
record.
Because of the slow trading, brok-
ers hesitated over their diagnosis, al
though they noted the markets in
ability to resume its advance and Its
tendency to skid whenever offerings
became larger. The consensus was
traders and investors were awaiting
decisive news and that there was lit
tie to inspire activity until these
sources had been heard from.
Meanwhile, dividend casualt e S,
both actual and prospective, damp
ened speculative sentiment. Ameri-
can Can, Allied Chemical, Santa Fe,
and American Telephone and a few
other leading shares encountered pres
sure which in some instances doubt
less represented extension of short
accounts.
Reduction of the New York re-
serve banks rediscount rate. an in
crease in our stocks of monetary gold
and an advance in some commodity
indices were prominent happenings
this week. The bank rate was cut
to 10 per cent from 3.
Business drags along on the bot
tom of the trough. Hopes of an up
turn in steel production again have
been deferred, this time until August.
There has been some seasonal i'm
provement in freight loadings, while
electric power output for three sue
cessive weeks has shown smaller
shrinkage from the 1881 totals. How
ever, neither of these more favor
able indications was received en-
Enthusiastically by the markets.

LATEST FURRY Of
SALES FADES AWAY
0NQU|ET SATURDAY
turnover Totals 100000
Shares; News to Affect
Market is Lacking

- New York, June 25.-(R)-The lat
est selling furry in the share market
halted with fade-out Saturday,
rather than the customary rebound
of more active times.
Trading again became close to a
standstill, and net changes were
negligible The list eased little in
spots in the first hour, then recov-
cred. The turnover was around 300,-
900 shares, making it one of the dull
est Saturday sessions in recent years.
The most encouraging aspect of
the market was the halt to the rather
brisk decline of the previous session,
before price averages had violated
the low levels of the bear market
registered on June /. On the whole
however, brokerage quarters found it
difficult to draw conclusions from
such a quiet session.
Auburn was virtually the only is
sue to close substantially lower. That
stock broke points to 40 ga COM
pared to last weeks peak of II 1-8.
but then recovered couple of points.
American Can sagged a point. then
recovered. Similar losses in Ameri-
can Telephone and American Tobac-
co "B" were regained. U. S. Steel
and Santa Fe sagged fractionally to
new lows, then recovered. U. S. Steel
preferred closed up fraction. At
the finish, the tone was steady. and
changes in leaders were almost en-
tirely limited to negligible fractions.
The weekend business surveys re-
ported there had been some pickup
in spots, but it was difficult to deter
mine how much had been due to an
ticipation of the excise taxes which
took effect this week. Business gen.
orally was described as entering the
dull between seasons period.
Commodities moved almost as mar
rcWly as stocks.
