ceived with keen interest at the White
House Thursday. No public announce
nent was forthcoming, however.
!: Morgenthau Whoops
More laxative, Secretary Morgen-
thau replied "whoopee" when told at
his press conference Of the statement.
Ford, q frequent critic Of the adj
sninistration, refused to sign the MIRA
automobile code and come under the
Blue Eagle.
It was said at the executive office
that there was qualification over the
confidence expressed by Mr.. Ford.
Mr.. Roosevelt recently called for
leadership from private business.
The automobile code has been an
NRA problem for months. Since the
recovery board took charge 1t has
maintained the utmost secrecy on de-
alterations affecting the code.
The problem presented Is this: At
the last extension Of the code, Hugh
S. Johnson promised labor that be-
fore another extension was granted q
public hearing would be held on the
provisions. NRA's labor advisory
board has renewed q demand for a
hearing to williams and considers
Johnson's promise binding on the new
board.
Once public hearing is called, labor
plans to demand sharp cut in the
42-hour work week, elimination Of the
merit clause for hiring and discharg-
ing workers and reinforced protection
Of wage differentials above minimum
levels.
But according to NRA procedure
the request for q hearing must come
from the industry itself and so far
the industry has not even formally re-
quested an extension.

PERSONAL EXPLANATION
Oct. 2oth, 1884.
Baldwin, n. D.,

Editor, Tribune:
Many Of my friends asked me to
make public why I am not support
ing LANCER In this election campaign
Is I did two years ago, and II you
give space In the Forum" the fol-
lowing Is my reason:
I supported Bill two years ago up
on the promise Of his New Deal. y
Well, we all know he was elected
governor Of North Dakota In 1882.
and then the New Deal" started
after he took office and 1t lasted II
months. I knew that Bill has the
name Of being one Of the smartest
lawyers In the state, and the only
way We can do d look up BillS rec
ord.
The 1888 session laws show that
Bill vetoed n laws. Some Of them
favored the farmer.
The embargo favored the line ele-
vators and was harmful to the In
dtvidual elevator owner, and was de-
c!ared unconstitutional by three fed.
eral Judges, but BILL did not veto the
embargo law.
The additional exemption, H. B.
No. 52-Crockett, Is one Of Bil's We
toes, which provided that . debtor
farmer. even Z renter. had the right
to all the grain raised on one quar-
ter-section Of land. Only seed, labor,
thresher and rental liens could force
collection. This Is Bills veto: FOR
the reason that in my judgment It
IS against good, sound public policy"
My poor brother farmer, what do
you think about It? It would take
too much space to explain them ALL,
No governor In North Dakota has
vetoed that many laws.
I do not like the one-man highway
commission. It Is not good public
policy to fire q public servant with
out cause. I did not like North Da-
kota made flour turn into bugs, and
the moratorium has made more peo-
pie believe that they do not need to
pay their debts than snything else,
and the good Lord only knows what
the results Of the moratorium will
be: and with all the experience that
I had In law, I do not believe that
the U. q. court, nor the North d.
kota supreme court at Bismarck have
to regret Is to their deci-
sion rendered by these courts against
william LANCER as governor Of North
Dakota.
I hope that my friends will sec that
! am justified In supporting Noodle
and the Democratic ticket, that my
reason given Is clear and sufficient
for my friends to Join In with me.
Yours very truly,
JULIUS MEYER.

Wrangell high school was very for

credited list of the Northwest Educa-

has been rejoicing since receiving
telegram from Mrs. Marie Drake,
secretary to Mr.. Karnes, stating
that Wrangell had been granted ac-
creditation in the association. The
other new ones on the list are Pet
ersburg, Cordoya, and Seward. Jul
neau, Ketchikan, Anchorage, and
Fairbanks were accredited several
years ago. The Alaska College has
also been placed on the accredited
list of colleges, ranking it with
leading institutions of the States.
Ac recitation of the high schools
makes it possible for their graduates
to enter a wide range of colleges
without e n trance examinations.
There are six states in the North
west Association. 1t is affiliated on
a reciprocal basis with the North
Central Association, making it pos
sible for graduates from the accred
tied schools in Alaska to enter col
lege and universities in 26 states
without entry tests.
