Victory In Defeat

North Dakota has its fourth governor in seven
months. AS a result of a decision of the state supreme
court last Saturday, Tom Noodle, the second Demo
cratic executive to be elected since statehood, was de-
clared ineligible to hold the office and Walter Wexford,
long identified with the Nonpartisan league in that
state, and elected last November as lieutenant gov
ernor, became the states chief executive.
Although the choice OF the people by some
eighteen thousand majority. Noodle, through a tech
nicality which had never occurred to the minds or
either himself or those who selected him as their
standard bearer, was compelled to bow to the leaders
whose very downfall he had precipitated.
While occupying the governors chair for only a
brief period of three weeks, Tom Noodles s~hortlived
term is not without its triumph. He demonstrated
clearly that a man Of integrity and ability can, al
most single-handed, win the endorsement of an elector-
ate over a gang of political racketeers and exploiters
who would stop at nothing to gain their enos.
Throughout his campaign Noodle consistently refus-
ed to become a party to the v~illifying personal attacks
which marked the tactics Of his opponents. Even his
own party leaders said he could never win on his
principle of a "clean campaign" Their candidate
knew the minds of the people better than his sponsors.
He not only won, but in victory endeared himself to
the thousands of voters who had placed their faith in
him. From Tom Noodle North Dakota has learned a
lesson in practical politics for which he should be ac-
corded everlasting gratitude.
Clean in seeking the office to which he aspired,
clean throughout the hectic % days that he sat in the
governors chair, clean with his clear cut honest testi-
mony before the five justices who weighed his case,
the retiring governor leaves the office with the salts
faction of having endeared himself to thousands OF
good citizens of his state for his un1uestioned honesty,
for his indomitable courage, and for his cheerful ac-
ceptance of his final disqualification.
While the mandate of the people has been sur
rendered to technicalities of the law, and the state has
another chief executive, the effect of Tom Noodles
humane influence upon North Dakotas citizenry win
long remain a guiding force for good.

The extension of the RFC, with
liberalization of it's functions, is as
sured, especially since no additional
funds are needed. Under the present
law the agency goes out of business
this month and cannot mature loans
later than January 81, 1910. Jesse
H. Jones, chairman, reports that the
corporation had net earnings OF $685.
002, 917 In 1894, and that since its or
g~anization by President Hoover in
February, 1892, 1t has cleared $685.
175, 1863. Sizable premiums On the
sale OF securities account for much
Of the profit Altogether, the RFC
authorized 20,316 loans to more than
ten Thousand borrowers, and has col
lected more than half of the 1854
000,00 put out. It now has about
800 million dollars available for
! loans.
Mr.. Jones believes that his agen-
cy can be Of great assistance in the
real estate market without encourag-
ing speculative lending. Much of its
security requires the liquidation Of
real estate and mortgages in closed
banks and mortgage institutions, and
this can be done more orderly in a
longer period. Interesting is the dis
closure that Of the 1851, 704, 109 loan

Michigan and Ohio. Those in the

that the unconditional, most favored

Secretary Hull's trade agreements
has failed in practice, and he cited
two hundred special agreements en-

He urges individual range

through a horizontal reduction of our
tariffs either through tariff legisla.

policy and disregarded the theories

BY III. o. THOMPSON

United Press Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Jan. 8.-Sto11n
clouds gathered today on the adj
miniStration'S congressional hori-
Zon.
The first clap of thunder indica =
tive of the squalls which the PreSi-
dents legislative program may be
called upon to weather came from
Senator Huey P. Long, Dem LOU
isiana, in two-hour senate speech.
Too, there were rumblings from
organized labor over the Presidents S
S4,000,000,000 work relief program.
President William Green of the
American Federation OF Labor de-
manded provisions for a 30-hour
week and payment of prevailing
wage scales be written into legisla-
ton for the program.
Senate progressives-in both par
tieS-appeared in sympathy with
Longs attack upon the administra-
ton for attempting to defeat Sen.
Bronson Cutting, (Rep.) New Mex
leo, who bolted his party to support
Mr.. Roosevelt in 1882, but who la
ter opposed several new deal" pro-
posals.
AS result of the ill-feeling over
the Cutting incident, liberals in
both parties cast more critical eye
upon new deal' proposals. The
extent to which this attitude is to
be carried will be determined large
ly by the administration disposal
of the threat to contest Cuttings
election.
Former Congressman Dennis Cha
vez, who ran against Cutting, has
charged illegal ballots were cast in
the election.
The senate was in recess today,
waiting for its committees to turn
out some work for it. When 1t meets
again Thursday it will in all pro-
liability have before it the foreign
relations committees favorable re-
port on the protocols for American
adherence TO the world court.
Chairman William P. Connery of
| the house labor committee said he
would offer 30-hour week bill for
industry as an alternative to the
Presidents program for giving 81
100000 work relief jobs.
Republican criticism Indicated
plans to seek an amendment to the
measure in order to provide direct
appropriation for various phases
of the relief plan, instead of Civ
ing the President broad powers to
use the fund as he sees fit.
