Washington reports that gloom had

dents determination to veto the bill
vigorously tended to make the inf1a-
ton minded section of Wall Street
somewhat less sure of itself. Brokers
said it was selling from this faction
which weighed on the market.
On the other hand, some pointed
out that the reaction represented in
part further technical correction fol-
lowing the sharp climb on heavy vol

Turkey Growers Defy
Cold to Enter Show

Grand Forks, N. D., Jan. 2l.-F-
Turkey growers Of the west defied in
tense cold and blocked roads Nom
day morning to open the All-American
turkey show on time.
With more than 400 bluebloods OF
the turkey world entered some 800 Of
them were in coops when the doors
opened at 10 q. m. Because Of the
weather conditions. it was announced
that birds received Monday will be
oooped and judged.
Judging turkeys by Harry Lamon
of New York, H. M. Herner Of VIM
nipeg. F. e. Cross Of Minneapolis
and Frank Moore Of Fargo will start
Monday afternoon, but no awards will
be made until the late arriving birds
have been scored in each class.
George w. Hackett, general man.

will have 1t in the end or know the
reason why.
In my estimation the proceedings
brought against Gov Noodle this af-
tcrnoon are about the most dastardly
and condemning things that have
ever happened in this state. II few
more Of our representatives would
display the courage Of Mr.. Clarke,
representative OF La Moure county.
We would not be trampled underfoot
In the future as we have been in the
past. Representative Clarke took the
floor this afternoon and asked the
new members Of the legislature to
break away from their faction and
talk things over among themselves,
before voting on the impeachment
proceedings. Not one Of these men
had the nerve to break away. What
are they afraid Of? II they have to
be led around by faction leader and
told what to do and how to vote, then
let them stay home where they be-
long. We can get along without them
very nicely.
Now lets see how many Of you read
ers agree with me. Let's demand our
rights as voters and clean this state
of political racketeering once and fer
all.

HULL Sees REVIVAL
OF FOREIGN TRADE
Looks Forward to Return Of
Normal Commercial Rela.
tons This Year

Washington, Jan. 2l.-R-Secre-
tary Hull, who is conducting an at
tempt to revive international trade
through reciprocal treaties, now takes
the view that within reasonable
time America will recapture q fair
share Of world business.
The contention at the state depart
nlent is that satisfactory progress has
been made in the last six months, and
that negotiators look forward TO the
return Of normal commercial rela-
lions with the outstanding trading
nations before the end OF the year.
There was no immediate comment
at the department Monday on criti-
cism of the Hull methods, voiced Sat-
slrday by George N. Peek, special for
eign trade adviser to President Roose-
welt. Peek advocated major changes
on Hull's most-favored-n policy.
Under this policy, favors granted
one nation in bargaining negotiations
are extended also to others. Peek
said his had failed in practice. The
United States. he commended, should
adopt a policy Of selective imports
and exports through making indi-
vidual arrangements with individual
nations, country by country, rather
than through q horizontal reduction
OF our tariffs, either through tariff
legislation or generalizing tariff con-
cessions under the trade agreements
act"
The last congress empowered Presi-
dent Roosevelt to raise or lower tar
ifs as much as so per cent In nego-
tiating trade agreements. Criticism
has been heard in this congress, but
the state department is pressing
ahead with preliminaries to trade
talks with the next three countries on
the list-tl1e Netherlands, Finland
and Italy.
