Associated Press Writer Says
William Lemke, Union Party,
Is Real Fighter From the Start
By Herbert Plummer
..Associated Press Staff Writer
WASHINGTON, — If past
performance is an indication,
Rep. William Lemke’s bid for the
Presidency as the Union Party
candidate will be a lightning dis
play.
“The time has come for a re
alignment of political factions,”
the 57 year old North Dakotan
asserted when he announced his
candidacy. “The common people
will vote for their own best in
terest in November—and there
fore join the Union Party.”
Campaigned on Foot
When he campaigned, for Con
gress in 1932, he walked from
town to town in his district. He
admits the crowds that heard him
speak “took up a collection to
help me along.” He was elected
on the Republican ticket that
year, and two years later, was
reelected.
Back in 1900, friends recall,
everybody thought Lemke was
too small when he went out for
guard on the football team at
the University of North Dakota.
He not onlv made the team that

year, but two years later was
captain.
“I always figured the lighter
man had the advantage”, he mus
es. ‘‘He could get under and
throw the bigger and slower
fellows. It’s the jump, the start,
that counts in the line.”
“That’s pretty much how it is
in politics, too.”
Eats Vegetables
Of medium height, blond and
freckled, Lemke weighs around
165 pounds. But it is all bone and
muscle.
“It's probably because he eats
vegetables", says Representative
Burdick of North Dakota, an in
timate boyhood friend. “There’s
nothing that grows in a garden
he won’t eat.”
“You can’t turn his head with
an axe,” Burdick says. “He once
lost a lawsuit seven times in a
row, but he won the eighth time.”
Non-Partisan Leaguer
Although Lomke’s claim to a
national reputation has been his
authorship and sponsorship in
the House of the Frazier-Lemke
farm debt refinancing bill, he has
been a political factor in North
Dakota for twenty years.
Active in the formation of the
Non-Partisan League there, he
was Attorney General of the
State in 1921, but was recalled
from that office along with Lynn
J. Frazier, then Governor and
now United States Senator and
co-sponsor of the Frazier Lemke
Bill.
He was elected to Congress in
1932 as a Non-Partisan on the
Republican ticket.
The Non-Partisan industrial
program was based on a series of
measures largely prepared by
Lemke.
Mere On Strike
(Continued From Page One)
of the International longshore
men's Association, said after a
conference with Secretary of
Commerce Daniel C. Roper, that
he and other union leaders had
been assured by Copeland that
this authority would not be us
ed to prevent the unions from
striking. This statement, Wein -
er confirmed.
The unions are opposed to the
exercise of this authority because
they feared the service certificat
es, revocation features, and con
tinuous discharge books, might be
used to prevent strikes.
A discharge book is a docu
ment issued to the workers show
ing their length of service, dis
charge date, and each time they
have changed employment.

The City council met last ev
ening to transact regular order
of business and receive commun
ications.
A letter drafted by the city
attorney, Leroy Sullivan, regard
ing the suspension by the Board
of Liquor Control, of any further
payments of revenue from liq

forces territorial regulations, was
read and passed on, each of the
councilman and mayor signing
the letter, which stated the city
government was doing all in its
power to see that the territorial
regulations were enforced.
The subject of changing from
coal to oil, in the heating plant
of tlie city building was discuss
