EFFORT TO BLOCK
FARM SALEFOUGHT
Insurance Company Agent
Says Auction Was Completed
Despite Farmers Action.

BY the Associated Press.
WILLMAR, Mimi, January 21.-One
thousand farmers who thronged the
court house left today believing they
had prevented foreclosure of q mort
gage on land titled by its occupant 81
years, but whether they had done SO
was uncertain tonight.
While the sheriff contended he heard
no bids after reading the notice of
foreclosure on the farm of Soren Ham
son, the financial correspondent for
the insurance company holding the
S5772 lien said he regarded the sale
as completed.
Emil Aspaas, Willmar, was authorized
to place the bid for the insurance
company, but, as the sheriff concluded
reading the public notice, several in
the crowd grabbed the representative
to prevent him entering a bid.
Postponement Held Illegal.
H. F. Williams of Minneapolis, repre-
senting the insurance company, said
the sheriff had no legal right to an
nounce poStponement of the sale for
two weeks as he did.
Just as I finished reading the no
tice," Sheriff Paul E. Anderson said,
"a bunch grabbed Aspaas and wouldn't
let him put in bid. When I couldn't
get bid, I telephoned Williams and
asked him what should do He said
get the sale closed. BY the time I got
back I couldn't find Aspaas and no
bid had been entered. So announced
poStponement."
Following announcement of postpone
ment. John Bosch. Atwater, president
of the Minneapolis Farmers Holiday
Association, called meeting of the
crowd.
"Its time that Congress should give
as farmers relief" Bosch said, land if
we organize properly we can get the
right kind of legislation so that they
(mortgage holders) won't take our farms
away. It's shame a man can't keep
his farm after living on it 81 years"
Holds Company Leniens.
Williams asserted his company had
been more than lenient" with Han
son, who owns a 160-acre farm. Han
son gave the mortgage in 1925.
1--WE have carried Hanson Williams
said I'VE offered to defer foreclosure
until 1884 If he would give us a chat
tel mortgage on part of his crop, but
he has refused to do So"
The incident here was another among
acts by groups of farmers in several
Midwest States to prevent disposses-
sion due to failure to meet obligations
Legislation pending in several States
and in Congress is aimed at the same
result
Calls for a rope were heard when
an attorney sought to foreclose a mort
gage near Pilger. Nebr., in the presence
of 1000 men who dispersed after the
farmer gave check for S25 in settle
ment. The attorney and deputy sheriff
were prevented from driving their cars.
Fifty men who went to a farm near
lie Mars. Iowa. compelled the owner
to relinguish notes given by tenant.
Another property owner near lie Mars
made settlement with tenant after
a group Of farmers visited her.

Hoover at 4 O'Clock
By GEORGE R. HOLMES

With less than "a hours

lin D. Roosevelt engaged to-
day in an arduous series Of
conferences with members of
his Cabinet and leaders Of
Congress on plans for swift
action in governmental af-
Il SlIen their assumption of
power tomorrow. -
While inaugural crowds poured
into the city, rumors were afloat
that both President Hoover and
President-elect Roosevelt were go
ing to issue re-aSSuring statements
to the country on the financial
situation.
To Go to White House
The PreSident-elect will call at
the White House at 4 p. M, but
whether it is to be only a courtesy
call, or in the nature of a con-
ference between the incoming and
outgoing executives, remained to
be determined.
President-elect Roosevelt broke
into his conferences long enough
shortly after noon to call at the
home of the late Senator Thomas
j. Walsh, whose sudden death
yesterday deprived him of the
Montanan's services as Attorney
General, and forced the expected
temporary designation of Homer
S. Cummings, of Connecticut.
Mr.. Roosevelt motored to the
Walsh home to console the late
Senator's bride of five days.
Political matters as well as more
weighty subjects occupied the
President-elect's time during the
day. He conferred at some length
with James A. Farley, Postmaster
General-designate, and with Ed
ward j. Flynn, of New York.
President-electR Roosevelt began
the day by receiving Speaker John
N. Garner at 9:30 a. m.
Garner spent half an hour with
Mr.. Roosevelt. He was followed
by Senator Bulkley of Ohio. a
of the Senate Banking
Committee, Secretary of State
designate Cordell Hull. and Prof.
Raymond Moley. one of Mr..
RooSevelt's chief advisers in
economic matters. Moley is to be
an Assistant Secretary of State.
It was understood that the
banking situation was under con-
sideration.
