Vote as One Unit

Washington, Feb. 23-(R)-Creation
OF . secret organization Of 100 Demo-
cratic members, in an attempt to con-
solidate "dissatisfied'' groups into q
cohesive voting unit, was under way
Saturday In the house.
The exact plan Of strategy had not
been mapped, because the movement
was stu In its formative stage.
Some who had discussed the idea,
and approved It, said 1t was the out
cropping Of Z desire to revolt" and
'legislate for ourselves once In .
while" Others vigorously denied
that revolt" was contemplated.
No leader Of the movement would
permit his name to be used, but the
various ideas privately expressed
sirnmered down to this:
One hundred carefully chosen men,
bers would be picked to meet either in
Q trump" Democratic caucus or in
smaller groups to discuss legislation.
They would outline q schedule. con-
slider pending bills. accept the recon-
mendations Of their own group, and
agree to vote as . unit. All would
have to make strict secrecy pledge,
agreeing not to disclose their plans to
newspapermen or to members outside
the group.
Numerous ideas were in the minds
Of the members seeking to form the
organization. One said It could be
used to make "the administration see
light" on patronage. This man, q
newcomer to congress himself, said
al new house members were being
discriminated against when it came

state by refund of hail Insurance.
monies. Saturday will face its final
test Of strength in the house.
Although opponents to the bill were
unsuccessful in stemming the bills
march to the floor Of the house. it
was expected they would carry their
objections to the bill into the cham
Der Saturday.
Sponsored by Edwin Traynor of
Ramsey, Ed A. Hill Of Cavalier and
I. G. Odegard Of Trail. the bill has
bounced through . stormy existence
thus far.
Originally approved by the legisla-
tive committee Of 81. the bill was
first attacked by representatives of
the state hail insurance department
who maintained the proposal was un-
constitutional and countered with a
second proposal to divert 1000. 900
directly from the hail insurance sur
plus fund to the state equalization
fund for distribution to the schools.
hacked Al More Equitable
Supporters Of the second proposal
maintained their plan Was more
equitable and would distribute
monies to schools where the need was
greatest" They opposed the Traynor-
Hill-O Odegard bill on the grounds that
1t would pay monies to landowners
who did not originally participate in
the flat hail tax levy.
The Traynor measure would refund
monies on the proportional basis Of
original payment Of the flat hail tax,
through county treasurers, who would
apply the amounts in cancellation Of
delinquent school taxes against the
land, or II there were no delinquent
school taxes, against any such taxes
to be levied in the future.
Traynor, principal sponsor OF the
bill. maintained his proposal is con-
stitutional, and struck back at his
critics with the assertion the plan Of
diversion rs advanced by the insur-
ance department, was plainly un-
constitutional.
Lengthy Debate Seen
It was evident the bill would be the
subject Of considerable debate on the
floor Of the house Saturday. despite
the fact It bears. for the second time,
the endorsement Of the super-com-
mittee Of 81 factional leaders on
house and senate.
In the house Saturday, final action
was postponed on the proposal, after
majority floor leader w. J. Goodwin
pointed out it was legal holiday and
passage Of the bill might be ques-
toned from . legal standpoint.
Action on the bill Was set IS .

Three Of teachers training schools
for which appropriations are asked
have been under legislative fire, with
the demand being made they be closed

formed into overflow units for state

With some amendments, the appro-
priations measure for Valley City

supporters to pass the house, al
though the institution was among the
first to be considered for closing. La
ter, senator's who sponsored the plan
arrived at = compromise under which
certain duplicated courses would be
eliminated.
May Not Appropriate
Whether appropriations for the Ell
lendale and Mayville institutions will
be turned down by the house, still was
q question upon which ma jority lead
ers refused to comment.
It was held probable that Ill meas
ures calling for school appropriations
would be passed on to the senate, in
which the original plan for closing
the schools originated.
In the senate q recommendation
has been made that Glendale and
Mayville be closed, and transformed
into overflows for the state insane
hospital and school for the feeble
minded, respectively.
Up for consideration also will be
appropriations bills for Minot and
Dickinson teachers colleges, with
similar bills coming before the house
for the state school Of forestry at
Bottineau and the state school OF
science ct Wahpeton.
The appropriation measure for the
state school Of science was expected
to pass although some amendments
may be made to 1t.

school have been In Bismarck for the
past week, waging determined battle
for retention of the school. although
solons have announced their intention
Of closing the institution and turning
1t over to the state tuberculosis Sani-
torium at San Haven, IS an overflow

Governor Waiter Wexford. although
not actively sponsoring the specific
program OF closing the schools. has
pointed out that approximately
''9o00, 900 could be saved by closing
some Of the institutions"
Majority floor leader w. ]. Goodwin
also favors closing three Of the teach
