'LANCER|SM' ISSUE
IN NORTH DAKOTA
Nye's Chances of Victory
CIouded by Plan of
$40 Age Pension.
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN
Star Stan Co-respondent.

FARGO, N. Oak, Oct. 19.-"Langer-
ISM" plus a wildcat S40-a-month old
age pension plan. is the one and only
issue in North Dakota's political cam
paign today.
Senator Gerald P. Nye, Republican,
is fighting it out with Gov. William
LANCER. Langerism. in the Nye die
tionary. is described as dictatorial,
dominating political organization and
bureaucracy, built up by levying tribute
on State employees and by demanding
'kickbacks" from contractors doing
business with the State.
There is a Democratic candidate for
the Senate, j. J. Nygaard. who is run
ming against Nye and LANCER, and also
union candidate, B. F. Woodall.
There is no slightest chance, however.
that Nygaard can win, and Woodall
is negligible quantity.
Nye Edges In.
Senator Nye defeated Gov. LANCER
in the Republican senatorial primary
last June, but by narrow margin,
something less than 5000 votes This
was Nye's first big hurdle, and there
were plenty of Republicans who did
not believe he would make it. 1t
might have settled the election if there
had not been an implacable enmity
between the two men and Langer's
determination to end Nye's political
career in defeat If he could.
After due consideration, and against
the wishes Of some of the Statehouse
organization, Langer's own. the Gov
ernor determined to run for Senator
as an independent. It was an easy
job for him to circulate the necessary
petitions and have them signed.
LANCER, tall, dark, inclined to stout
ness, with a gift OF CAB and great
determination, has fought many bat
ties in the past. He was elected
Governor as Republican first in 1882
On charges Of levying an assessment
for political purposes-on Federal
employees in the relief organization in
North Dakota, LANCER was indicted by
Federal grand jury and tried in
1884. He had been renominated for
Governor. He was sentenced to serve
18 months in the penitentiary and to
pay fine of $4,000. The State Su-
preme Court removed him from office
A Federal court of appeals reversed the
lower court. He was tried again and
the jury disagreed. A third trial re-
suited in acquittal.
Stages 1886 Comeback
In the meantime, Mrs. LANCER. the
Governors wife, had taken his place
in the race for Governor, and in the
election she was defeated by Thomas
H. Noodle, a Democrat. In 1896,
LANCER staged a comeback and was
elected Governor He has grabbed the
Non-Partisan League, North Dakota S
old radical organization, and made it
his own. He is using 1t and his State
pay roll as his campaign organization

ployment or a preferred re-employ-
ment status to some 5000 workers who
took part in the walk-out.
If necessary to provide for the REIN
statements, the company is ordered to
dismiss all employees hired since the
strike.
The Republic plants affected by the
strike were in Youngstown, Canton,
Massilon, Cleveland and Warren. Ohio.
The boards order. contained in a
unanimous 100,000-word decision of
the three-man group. was served on
the corporation. headed by Tom NJ
Girdler. in Cleveland today
In event of failure of the company
to comply with the e-employment
order. it is directed to pay remedial
wages dating from five days after ap-
plication of the workers for reinstate-
ment. In computing such remedial
wages, the company may deduct earn
ings of such employment applicants
during the waiting PERIOD" but in a
further unique qualification it is
ordered that where such earnings may
come from public relief sources the
company is to make restitution to the
relief agency.
Company Blamed for Violence.
Exception to the order was made in
the cases of II persons who were con-
victed or pleaded guilty to criminal
actions in connection with the strike.
Six of these had pleaded guilty to use
of explosives and to malicious destruc-
ton of property, while the other four
had been found guilty of possession
of bomb.
In harsh language. the board an
sWered the corporations contention
that many ather strikers should not be
reinstated because of their participa-
ton in acts of violence.
1T must be remembered" the board
said, that the acts of which the re-
spondent complains were committed by
strikers in the heat and turmoil OF
bitter industrial strife in which the
threat of violence on the part of the
respondent against the strikers was
ever present and frequently carried
into execution; that the strike was
brought on fundamentally by the re-
spondent's own unlawful acts; that the
respondent had itself been guilty of
brutal acts of violence in the period
or organization preceding the strike,
and the respondent itself committed
or was responsible for acts of violence
during the strike far more serious
than those attributed to the strikers
in question.
Discrimination Cited.
although the respondent refused to
reinstate certain employees at Youngs-
town and elsewhere, allegedly for the
reason that they had carried sticks
and clubs on the picket lines, it paid
a bonus to the members of the Back
to-Work" Committee of guards at
Canton for patrolling the city, armed
with shotguns, and reinstated all such
employees without question. In view
of this discrimination, we are COM
PEELED to conclude that the real motive
behind the respondents refusal to re-
instate striking employees was their
union afiliation.
1T does not lie in the mouth OF the
RESPONDENT to assert that the oftenses

Evening star., 1938-10-19
BY JAMES E. CHINN.

Investigators for the Senate Cam
paign Expenditures Committee sent
into Carbon County, Pa, to check
up on the sensational charges OF Sen
ator James J. Davis, Republican, that
w. P. A. workers have been forced
to contribute to the Democratic cam
paign fund and to register as Demo-
Gratis to hold their jobs, today found
themselves facing a difficult assign
ment.
All sorts of reports of alleged "po-
litical macing" flooded the county
prior to the closing of the official reg
istration books October 8, but con-
crete cases are hard to find. The
victims" themselves will discuss of
the record" how they were coerced
into changing their registration and
charge they were compelled to pay
tribute to the campaign chest in
various ways, but refuse to allow their
names to be used on the ground that
they would lose their jobs.
About the only ones willing to talk
are Republican leaders and former
w. P A. workers who were dropped
from the rolls, they claimed, because
they either refused to contribute to
the campaign fund or change their
registration.
Kept Identity Secret.
A representative of The Star. who
spent week in Carbon County in
vestigating these reports prior to Sena-
tor Davis visit there last week, dis
covered that situation. He talked with
more than 40 w. P. A. workers. both
on the job and in the privacy of their
homes, but only one of them had the
courage to allow his name to be used
for publication. Most of them would
admit privately they had been vic
Tins of political macing" in one form
or another, but declared If they talked
for publication" they probably would
be on the relief rolls shortly afterward
Any concrete evidence, therefore, Of
so-called political macing," naturally
comes from the indignant w. P. A.
workers who found themselves jobless
after failing to meet $100 campaign
fund assessment, or Republican county
officials who are using the stories of
the victims to hurl at the Democrats
