GOVERNOR LANCER REPRESENTS
The BANKERS INTERESTS

There are many farmers in North Dakota and else |
where to whom of Governor LANCER as
trying to convince the farmers that he is acting in their in
eress and he has convinced This the why
he was elected governor last fall.
The exposures the Producers News have been printed
with two aims in mind.
First to convince farmers that LANCER and his
Cates represent the interest of the rich Wall Street
and do NOT represent the interests of the farmers
Second to cOnvinve the farmers that they can get
results by patiently relying the promises of such
individuals and that they get relief during this most
terrible crisis by their mighty and united ACTION
These two aims are fact Recognizing the treach
cry of LANCER to interests will not get step fur
ther of itself It be followed by OUR OWN UNITED
ACTION TO FORCE THE RULING CLASS TO MAKE
CONCESSIONS TO U.s. On the other hand cannot make
acting themselves while thew still believe the FAIRY stories
LANCER has been telling them
In this we carry Langers to Ashbe Inger
State Secretary of the North Dakota Committee for
Action the question of relief AS ngerson special
correspondent from North Dakota point in their
ens Langers letter the trying to keep the
farmers and workers of North Dakota going hot air in
stead of relief because hot air cheap and there is lots
of it, and because LANCER opposed aiding the
with the funds that must be wrested from the rich
to live
In our issue of Aug printed Secretary Ingersons
letter and correspondents of Langers
skull and crossbOnes speech at the Holiday convention in
Devils Lake In speech at Wilton, N D.. recently, Pat
Barrett State Organizer for the u F. L. pointed out to the
farmers that LangerS speech admission that
he had gone the Governors conference at Washington
with platter bearing the skulls and bones of North
koa farmers and workers who killed in the last
war; and had offered them Roosevelt as bloody pledge
that he would be willing to beat the drums when
welt should declare to protect Wall Streets
mperialiSt interests.
In just these two instances, RELIEF and WAR
LANCER has showed that he is Wall Streets
He is not only Wall Streets but he is NEW DEAL
Wall Street politician He is carrying the same double
dealing that Roosevelt is carrying through national
SCALE His program lines him up for example, with other
New Deal governors like Herring of Iowa who called out
the militia to crush the farmers struggles against eviction
and foreclosure like Schmedeman of Wisconsin and Leh-
man OF New York who called out the armed forces
state and of gangdom in order to crush the striking dairy
farmers like Olson of Minnesota (whom he resembles the
closest of a who has been trying to prevent the farmers
and workers from getting relief while he has preached
radical" phrases
LANCER is winning his spurs one of the most capable
OF the governors in Wall Streets interests In future
issues OF the Producers News we shall examine in detail the
sales tax which LANCER put through supposedly the
schools but by his admission designed to paw the bank
ers the interest they demand.
The issues raise with LANCER are not personal issues
Bill LANCER should tomorrow go the way of Townlevs
doodebug the ISSUES OF WAR, RELIEF FOR THE I'M
WOULD STILL REMAIN. If LANCER should pass out of
the picture dozens of serve politicians would be willing to
step into his shoes to carry the anworng class pro
gram ne is engaged in
But LANCER is governor. Our struggle is with the
capitalist class who attempting to maintain their
profit system at the expense of Eves-and LANCER
is their main agent in the state AS expose his anti
working class actions shall expose the anti-vork
ing class actions of every other politician farm leader
or other individual who attempts to keen us in misery
and to break our united front of struggle
