MADISON. Wis, August 19.-Rum-
blings Of Statewide milk strike gave
the State administration some alarm
this week but failed to slow the pace
with which the N. R. A. recovery pro-
gram Is being applied to Wisconsin.
Gov. A. G. Schmedeman clashed
with the strike leaders, particularly
Walter M. Singler, who has been the
outstanding figure in the States two
previous milk strikes. Schmedeman
denounced Singler as an "agitator
spreading the seed Of dissatisfaction"
and said such tactics would not be toll
Grated during his administration.
Singler, who is head of the Wisconsin
Cooperative Milk Pool, retaliated by
charging that Schmedenan was "act-
ing like a little boy going about the
State reading speeches that had been
prepared for him"
Strikers Prepared.
I'VE are prepared to strike at a mo-
ment's notice" Singler declared. Au-
thority is given his words by the meet
ing held at Horizon in the heart OF a
rich dairying section early this week.

control plan to be sent to Henry M.
Wallace, Secretary of Agriculture. Dis
sension has been stirred up among the
dairymen by the continued decline in
butter and cheese products, an i'm

Rio urged whole-hearted cooperation
by the public and industry with the

covery Administration for a loan Of
$18, 8,5O0,00O.
This sum is wanted by the municipal

will employ 10000 men direct, and
$4,000 indirectly, the mayor estimates.
Seattle now has $45, 900, 900 invested
in its municipal light projects, Mayor
Dore asserts, but with the completion
of the Skagit project the current will
be marketed at cost of only $6570 per
horsepower, one of the cheapest in
stallations in the country.
The entire municipal organization
and the various civic organizations OF
the city are uniting In the demand for
the loan. ]. D. Ross, manager Of the

DAY Night to Show Harry
F. M'Lean At Work

A moving picture featuring tbs
struggle Of one Of Bismarck's native
sons in his efforts to harness nature
in the wilds Of Canada will be shown
at the Paramount theater Wednesday
evening.
The picture will begin Immediately
following the second show.
The native son is Harry Falconer
Mclean, nephew Of William A. Fall
coner, 202 Avenue E, Bismarck. Nc
Lean has become internationally ia
nous as a railroad and mining eng
ineer and contractor.
A Toronto newspaper has described
him as a master man: crusher of
rocks, turnover of tunnels, builder of
bridges, constructor of railroads, curb
er of rivers, baronial contractor who

from Cochrane, Ont. and about go
miles as the crow flies from Moose
Factory, an old Hudson Bay post on
James Bay, established in l67O", as he
described his location in a letter to
his uncle here.
Mclean is as great a contractor as
there is in Canada. He employs an
army OF 1000 to 5000 men and has
employed at one time as many as
5000.
Two of the projects in the Abitibi
canyon are a million-dollar bridge
across the broad Moose river, enabling
the Temiskeming and Northern On
tario Railway to finish it's northward
crawl to tidewater, thus giving On
tario a railroad opening to the ocean
within its own boundaries, and $23,-
100000 power plant, a power concep-
ton second to none in Canada with
the exception Of the Queenston plant.
The picture at the Paramount will
show how gargantuan is the task
and the methods which Mclean is
employing to complete the job.

Discussing the status Of Canada as
a world power in talk before the
Kiwanis club at its noon luncheon
meeting Wednesday, Scott Cameron
said that the dominion, though a link
in the British Empire, in effect is as
independent as the United States.

representative Of the people, despite
their allegiance to the king.

points the governor general Of the do

general is elected by the Canadian
ministers, representatives Of the peo-
pie, and the king appoints him upon
the ministers recommendation.

Canadian government and pointed out
that when Canada entered the World
War the dominion declared war as an
individual nation and not necessarily
as part Of the British Empire.
