FARMER
WISHES TORUNF0R
PLACE IN CONGRESS
n. J. Roberts Will Seek Endorse
ment Of Nonpartisans at
State Meeting

Asserting that the bankers power
to control the issue of money is the
tail that wags the dog" and Is re-
sponsible for present economic con-
ditions, H. j. Roberts, farmer living
in Bismarck, Monday announced his
candidacy for the Nonpartisan
League endorsement for a seat In
congress. Roberts was an employe Of
the state tax department when r. H
Thoresen was tax commissioner.

said he has prepared platform pro-
posal which will be submitted to the
Nonpartisan convention and that he
is extremely anxious to go before
the people Of the state on this issue
Preparations for the convention
were being completed Monday by C.
N. Lee, chairman Of the Nonpartisan

nounced that the meeting would be
held in Patterson hall and will be
called to order at 2 p. m. Wednes-
day. He will preside at the open
ing and until q convention chair
man Is selected.
Lee asserted there is every pros
pect that the Nonpartisan forces
will cooperate with the Progressive
Republican party in selecting can
didates and in formulating q plat
form, denying statements by political
commentators that the Nonpartisans
would ignore the Republican progress
Sives.

one OF a committee which met with
the Progressive Republicans at their
meeting at Valley City recently. At
that time committee was appointed
to confer with the Nonpartisans re-
lative to matters Of common inter-
est, including the selection Of can

there would be strong support for
some kind Of a working arrange
ment.

WILL INACCURATE
BALLOON TESTS AT
BISMARCK BUREAU
Two New Observers Added to
Local Weather Office Force;
Add New Equipment

Accurate determination of wind di-
rections and velocities will be started
here Tuesday when the weather bu-
reau inaugurates program to record
flying conditions daily, according to
an announcement made by O. w.
Roberts, federal naeteorologist.
Two observers will be added to the
force at the local bureau to take over
this phase Of the work. Formerly
stationed at Glendale. they are Merl
S. Main and Charles r. Nelson.
Observations will be made three
times each day at $50 a. m, 1880
a. m. and at $50 p. m.
Winds velocities are determined by
releasing 36-inch balloons inflated
with hydrogen and observing their
movements with theodolite. A
penthouse has been erected on the
roof of the weather bureau building,
where recording apparatus will be
mounted and where balloons will be
released. The theodolite is an in
strument equipped with a telescope
and designed to aid the observer in
following the movements Of the
balloons.
The balloon work formerly was
done at Glendale at the weather bu-
reau there. Decision to do the work
here was made in the belief that 1t
was more feasible to have observa-
tons made at a point on an airways
route, Roberts said.
Not only will wind conditions be
determined, but the height Of clouds
recorded, according to Roberts, who
said that the service undoubtedly
would prove boon to aviation in
North Dakota.
After the first OF next year, the
remainder Of the staff now stationed
at the Glendale station will be moved
to Bismarck under the present plan.
The Bismarck station is the prin-
cipai one in the state and stations
at Williston. Devils Lake, Glendale,
Grand Forks, and Moorhead are
subordinate to it.
An interesting sidelight on the
work under way at the weather bu-
reau building was provided by Rob-
erts In commenting on the ancient
structure. The penthouse on the
roof IS the first addition made to the
building In more than 80 years.
Built Of logs in 1869 by Major Gal
pin, 1t later was resurfaced and
stands as the oldest building in Bur
leigh county and Is believed to be
one Of the oldest, If not the oldest
building In the state.
