APPEAL TO VOTERS
ISSUED BY SHAFER
Asks Support for Legislators
Friendly to Administra
tion Policies
From his bed. where lie is recover
ing from a surgical operation. Gover
nor George F. Shafer today issued an
appeal to voters to support legislative
candidates who are friendly to his
administration.
The governor called attention to
measures defeated in the last legis
lature. declaring that responsibility
for rejecting legislation recommended
by him was caused by a Nonpartisan
controlled senate.
Regret was expressed by Governor
Shafer that his confinement In the
hospital upset his plans to speak in
various sections of the state, and he
addressed his message particularly to
voters in those districts where con
tests prevail for legislative seats*
“The handsome majority which I
received for renomination at the June
primary election was not only a very
gratifying endorsement of my admin
istration o f state affairs. ’ the gover
nor said, "but it seems to have in
sured my reelection on November 4
"I am sure that you are as anxious
as I am that my administration shall
be as successful and beneficial to the
state as it is possible to make it. It
will not, however, be as successful in
all respects as It should be. unless
t have the support of a friendly legis-
DANCE t a h t e DOME TONIGHT
lature. In the legislative session of
1929 several Important measures rec
ommended by me were defeated by
the senate which was controlled by a
Nonpartisan League majority. Among
the measures so defeated were:
“(1) A bill creating a commission
of three to operate the state mill and
elevator.
“(2) A concurrent resolution in
creasing the terms of county and
state officers from two to four years.
“(3) A bill providing for a survey
c' our state and local governments,
which was designed to promote
greater efficiency and economy in the
administration of our governmental
agencies. »
“(4) A bill which provided for a
banking code commission, to formu
late legislation calculated to strength
en our state banking system.
“Notwithstanding the emphatic en
dorsement which the people have
given to my record and recommenda
tions as goverror, certain persons in
the Nonpartisan League are seeking
to elect a legislature which will be
opposed to my administration and
which will defeat my recommenda
tions for needed changes In the laws
of the state. They are now actively
engaged in such a campaign In some
legislative districts.
“I am sure that you want me to
have the cooperation of a friendly
legislature, rather than the opposi
tion of a hostile one; so I am taking
this means of appealing to you to
vote for and support those candidates
for the house and senate who are
politically friendly to my administra
tion.
“Every recommendation which I
shall make to the next legislature will
be in the interest of sound, efficient
and economical government and con
sistent with an intelligent develop
ment of agriculture and industry- in
North Dakota."
CHEVROLET DEALERS
TO MEET IN FARGO
Company Plans Series of Fifty
Meetings Throughout Coun
try in Near Future
A significant sign of the aggressive
policies to be adopted by the automo
bile industry toward making 1931
rank with past years in volume is
seen here in the announcement that
Chevrolet's annual dealer meetings
are to get under way next week, two
months in advance of the customary
date.
The meeting for dealers in this dis
trict will be held In Fargo Nov. 12. it
is announced by F. M. Davis, Bis
marck dealer.
Four groups of sales officials from
the home office, each group accom
panied by a full carload ol theatrical
equipment, stage hands, and electri
cians, are scheduled to hold 50 meet
ings at os many central points during
the next five weeks, which will be
attended by upwards of 20,000 Chev
rolet dealers and associated bankers
located in every section of the coun
try.
H. J. Klinger, vice president and
general sales manager of Chevrolet,
remained noncommital on the sub
ject of a new car, other than to state
that a part of the star chamber ses
sions with his dealers would be on
this subject. He explained the hold
ing of the meetings earlier this year
by stating that normally November
and December are dull months in the
industry, and dealers are better able
to leave their places of business dur
ing these months than in January or
February.
The first meeting is scheduled at
Cleveland Nov. 3 and the last ones
at Wichita and Davenport Dec. 5.
Mr. Klingler, under whose general
direction the meets are being held,
plans to attend meetings at various
points, while the next four ranking
sales officials will have charge of the
four groups.
D. E. Ralstron, assistant general
sales manager, directs the western
meetings, which start at Chicago on
Nov. 4 and wind up at Wichita, in
termediate extreme points being at
Minneapolis, Seattle, Los Angeles and
El Paso.
Meetings in each town last for two
days. The first day’s sessions are
held in a leading theater or hall in
each city, and every phase of car mer
chandising is presented on the stage
in the form of talks and playlets, with
the home office officials in the role
of speakers and actors. By this means
such subjects as accounting, service,
advertising new and used car selling
and others are dramatized for more
effective presentation.
During the second day star cham
ber sessions are held with the field
sales organization, and open house
is observed to afford dealers an op
portunity to discuss with the central
office executives problems and con
ditions peculiar to their locality.

DEMOCRATIC FEUD
IS LEFT UNDECIDED
Judge Berry Declines to Issue
Restraining Order on
Bertsch as Chairman
Judge H. L. Berry declined to grant
a temporary restraining order on
Christ Bertsch, to prevent him from
exercising authority as chairman of
the Burleigh county Democratic com
mittee, when hearing on the action of
Julius Meyers, rival claimant, was re
sumed in district court this morning.
The remainder of the case was left
pending for future action by the
judges of the local court, possibly to
be taken up at the December term.
Judge Berry held that the time was
too short to go adequately into the
merits of the matter, anyhow, the
Burleigh county election judges al
ready having been appointed, and, as
the chief object at this time, was to
head Bertsch off from naming the
Democratic appointees, nothing could
be gained by a temporary restraining
order now.
Judge Berry sat in the case in
spite of the affidavit of prejudice filed
against him Friday by H. F. O’Hara,
of counsel for Bertsch. The judge
ruled that the affidavit was inef
fective under the circumstances, which
were mainly that speedy action was
demanded with the election so near.
After taking that attitude Friday
afternoon, he adjourned the case until
10 o'clock this morning.
Judge Berry commented that the
case was an interesting one and, as
county chairmen are not public of
ficials in the sense that those trans
acting the public business are. it
seemed to him that quo warranto pro
ceedings would be the proper pro
cedure to take.
The attitude of the contestant Mey
ers. as stated by his counsel, F. O.
Hellstrom, this morning, was that
Bertsch was not chairman because the
committee meeting held by six mem
bers September 13 had declared the
chairmanship vacant and then had
elected Meyers. This, the plaintiff
held, was the decisive factor of the
matter.
Judge Berry, however, wanted to
know whether the meeting of the six
was held under legal conditions. He
asked as to the method of calling the
session and questioned Mr. Hell
st-rom as to the uncertainty of the six
members constituting a legal quorum.
Gordon Cox. counsel for Bertsch, also
questioned the validity of the special
meeting rail, which was issued by the
six members who attended the meet
ing.
The plaintiffs contention was that
six constituted a quorum, on the
ground that of the 16 precinct com
mitteemen elected and presenting cer
tificates at the July 16 meeting of the
Democratic county committee only
nine were actual Democrats, the oth
ers being Republicans. Carl Kositzky
was cited as an» example of Republi
cans so chosen. Though elected as a
Democratic precinct committeeman,
he did not attend, but sent a proxy.

HALLOWEEN FROUCS
ARE LARGELY SOCIAL
Parties and Dances Take Place
of Former Rough-House
Outdoor Antics
Halloween was just a frolic in Bis
marck. Pranks went hardly beyond
annoyance The police blotter was
clear of arrests or complaints and
Police Magistrate Allen had no cases.
Up to noon no damage had been re
ported by merchants or householders.
This may have been largely due to
the tendency to turn the eery eve into
a round of social festivities. Parties
more and more are taking the place
of the old-time mischief which used
to mount farm wagons on barn roofs
and move small outbuildings to prem
ises where they didn't belong. Even
the old tick-tack of a pin. a nail and
a long string to irritate householders
with its tapping on windows is going
into the discard.
So last evening there were a lot of
children’s costume parties in settings
of grinning carved pumpkins, paper
witches riding brooms and other
ghostly decorations. Also a lot of
bridge parties among the adult folks.
As far as dances went, that of the
Bismarck lodge of Elks at the Dome
was the big event. Several hundred
persons attended. Members from
throughout the county, from Dickin
son and Miles City were among those
present.
Some of the Halloween social events
will be belated. The Lions club, for
instance, will hold its celebration on
its weekly meeting date, which is
Monday. The event, a dinner ,and
dance, will be held at the Patterson
Terrace Gardens in the evening. The
Mandan Lions will join in the affair,
which will be ladies night also.
