LEMKE IS ANXIOUS
TO PROVE PARTY
NO FLASH IN PAN
PROMIBEB ACTIVE PART IN
COMING STATE
FIGHTS
DETROIT, July 10 (TP)—Con-
VTOBmaa William Lemke wants the
country to know that his new Union
party ia no flaah in the pan.
Lemke said that while Union party
ia well organized and will be ready
to enter every state political fight
that comes up during 1937.
Lemke, the presidential candidate
on the Union party ticket, issued the
announcement after a conference
with his backer, the Reverend Charles
E. Coughlin. While both Father
Cough ling and Lemke denied that the
meeting had any political significance,
nearly everyone thinks the par talked
about something besides the hot
weather.

SEEKING A SWING
AN EXCELLENT rule of procedure
to follow, especially in duplicate
games, le: "Be conservative when
ahead. Be bold when behind.” If early
play has given you a god lead, just
play for averages when well ahead.
If early play has not favored you, try
boldly for a big swing, even if the
odds are against its success. Today we
have an excellent example of the oc
casional value of such strategy. Al
though East and West were excellent
players in a recent 12-table game,
they seemed from the traveling score
sheets to be only about fourth in
score. To seek a swing West made
an opening call on a hand not nearly
strong enough for rubber games or
for duplicate games, except for an
emergency. As a result of the success
on this hand and another, the pair
jumped into top score position by the
end of the evening.

Bidding went: West 1-Heart; East,
3-Diamonds, to show' certain game
and a probable slam: West, . 3-No
Trumps: West, 5-Hearts, to show
length of suit and weakness as wefti-
East, 6-Hearts, which North doubled
oil his Ace and speculation. No other
paid bid more than 4-Hearts on the
holdings, although all of them made
at least 5-odd resulting in 11 match
points for this bold pair.
An opening lead of a spade would
have defeated the contract, but North
led off his Ace of clubs. No shift
would have defeated the contract, but
North led off his Ace of clubs. No
shift would have defeated the small
slam, but having made the club lead.
North led next his 7 of clubs. Declar
er was in with the K. Three rounds of
t-'P heart honors followed, pulling all
opposing trumps. That, and leading
off North’s Ace, made further play
simple and certain.
Four diamond tricks were run. On
the fourth one declarer let go his low
est spade. That suit alone troubled
him. On dummy’s last club declarer
let go his second low spade, then ne
claimed the balance of tricks for ht*
contract.
West plays 4-Hearts. The opening
lead is the K of diamonds. He went
down a trick on his doubled contract.

HOME TOWN OF THIRD PARTY CHOICE
IS NOT EXCITED BY HIS CANDIDACY
FARGO, N. D„ July 10.—William
Lemke’s home town is not excited
about his candidacy for the presiden
cy. In November Fargo will probably
vote for Alf M. Landon of Kansas.
Odds are excellent Fargo will vote
against Mr. Lemke for congress at
the same -tme. He expects to be a
candidate for both offices in this
state. . -o'
Staunchly Republican, Fargo voted
against Mr. Lemke in 1934, chalking
up a majority for Democratic candi
dates, likewise voting against Mr.
Lemke’s congressional running mate,
Usher L. Burdick.
Stranger in Strange Land
The bulk of Fargo residents are
conservatives; could at least be classi
fieri under that term. Mr. Lemke is
regarded as a schooled and polished
radical. The bulk of North Dakota
radicals are not schooled and are far
from polished.
Indeed, the verage Fargoan who
doesn’t know Mr. Lemke intimately
regards him as someting of a curios
ity.
He takes no part in civic affairs;
he belongs to nothing, goes nowhere,
is seen but little. His social life in
Fargo is as limited as it is in Wash
ington, where, Fargo understands, he
even avoids presidential receptions.
Howsomeever, . his home town is
aware that Mr. Lemke is affable, soft
spoken, “smart as a whip,” possessed
of a beautiful home, the husband of
a charming wife and the father of
three children who bid . fair to. equal
their congresman-father in scholas
tic attainment.
Nevertheles, the idea of Mr. Lemke
as president strikes Fargo as incon
gruous. It just- can’t grasp it. It is
accustomed to seeing him move in
conspicuously from his home to his
Office attired in trousers sadly in
need of an iron, a coat wrinkled be
yond all description, a nondescript
cap and several days growth of beard.
Press a Pose?
Some thing that Mr. Lemke’s care
lesness of dress is something of a
pose—that it goes over well with the
class from which he draws his votes
—from the honest-to-goodness “dirt”
farmer. ... . ‘.
The presidential aspirant from
North Dakota, however is an attro
ney, not a farmer; he never has been
a farmer except incidentally. A doc
tor of laws from Yale universty, he
has given most of his 57 years to
politics.
If any one quality distinguishes
Mr. Lemke, it is persistence. That
qality began to be recognized when!
he was a student at the University
of North Dakota. He weighed only
150 pounds, but he played guard on
the football team, played side by side i
with Lynn J. Frazier, now United l
States senator from North Dakota, 1
wh was center. 1
He was captain of the team in
1902 and was re-elected for the 1903
season but did not return to scholo.
Determination
His lack of weight in a position
ordinarily demanding some “haft” he
balanced with dogged determination.
"I always figured,” he had said,
“that the lighter man had the ad
vantage. He could get under and
throw the bigger .slower fellows. It’s
the pump, the start that counts in
the line.”
Odd times, Mr. Lemke would do a
bit of ball-carrying, swinging out of
the line and trying a buck between
guard and center.
He still follows the University of
North Dakota team, stil keeps a
weather eye on football—when he
has time.
Other interests have replaced foot
ball, interests to which he devotes
the same persistence which marked
him in college.
For a while it was Mexican land'.
He had a development project in that
country, talked it, ate it, slept It,
buttonholed people and told them
about it, regaled office viators with
stories of it.
State Affairs
For a while it was state affairs—
the industrial program set in motion
in North Dakota by the Non-partisan
league. Mr. Lemke, as attorney gen
eral when that program was insti
tuted, had a heavy hand in
the acts under which the program
came about.
Now it’s the Frazier-Lemke bill.
His persistence in advancing that
measure in congress is well known.
Mr. Lemke has never learned to re
treat. Unrattled by defeat, unshaken
by disappointment, he comes back
for more. '
He likes to garden. He putters
around his home in Fargo, dressing
it up with shrubbery and flowers. He
has the born gardener’s natural
touch. Things “just grow” for him
when they won’t for other people. He
likes dogs. There is one at his home
now, a coal black Pomeranian, named
Penny.
Unlike a lot of men with his ad
vanced views on social matters, Mr.
Lemke was a good fraternity man in
college. He lists Ph Delta Theta, na
tional academic fraternity, as his sole
affiliation, in "Who’s Who in Amer
ica.”
Mrs. Lemke
Mrs. Lemke is a native of Ireland,
a Christian Scientist, a member of
one Fargo club. Quiet and demure,
her interests lean not at all to poli
tics. Her home, comfortable and de
lightful, her garden, in whch she is
a bit disappointed thisy ear, give evi
dence of her chief activities, aside
from rearing three children.
The children are Robert, 20, gradu
ating this month from the junior col
lege of George Washington university
where the older eon, William, Jr., 24,
received his law degree with distinc
tion, and Marytion, and Mary, 16, a
junior in Fargo Central High school.

ENGLAND CONTROLS TER
MINAL RIGHTS FOR
OCEANIC FLIGHTS
NEW YORK, July 10 (TP)—Four
great nations are going to “divvy up”
on commercial flying of the North At
lantic. recording to the prediction
made today by the aeronautical ex
pert, William Clemmens. They say
France, Germany, Great Britan and
the United States will have to reach
an ajv-ement if this last undeveloped
airway is to be opened up.
Two routes are available and Eng
land controls both of them, Clem
mens points out. Whether planes fly
the Newfoundland to Ireland route or
byway of Bermuda and the Azores,
England has the terminal rights
sewed up, he declared.
These opinions are expressed in an
article in the current issue of cos
mopolitan magazine. The author pre
dicts that the United States and
Great Britan will co-operate in devel
oping North Atlantic air traffic and
that reciprocal agreements will be
made with various European nations.
Clemmens thinks Germany and France
will try to build up the Azores route
while America and Great Brtan con
centrate on the northern loute.
ROAD EVANGELIST
ON GOSPEL TOUR
“CHURCH OV WHEELS” IS
TAKING ANNUAL PIL
GRIMAGE
CHELSEA, Mass., July io (TP)—
The “evangelist of the open road,”
Mrs. Herbert Whitelock of Chelsea
starts on her annual gospel tour to
day. Her husband, the Reverend
Whitelock, will accompany her on
the motor trip which will cover thou
sand of miles.
The Whitelock gospel tour Is made
in a specially designed automobile
which the couple call a “church on
wheels.” When a stop is made a plat
form and portable organ is rolled out
of the back of th> car. The Rev.
Whitelock preaches from the platform
and his wife plays the organ, sings
hymns and helps in other parts of the
service.
..-. Each year the couple drive from
Chelsea to Manchester, N. H., where
Rev. Whitelock for years served as
pastor at the People’s Tabernacle.
Many CCC camps will be visited
on the tour. The couple saw a new
field for their services when these
camps were founded and have re
ceived official permission to visit the
government forestry posts on the gos
pel tours.

RATION AT NEWARK
NEWARK, N. J., July 10 (TP)—
Fire department officials are credit
ing volunteer firemen with helping
prevent a conflagration which might
have wrecked a large section of New
ark had it gotten out of control.
The fire started with an explosion
in a cellulose plant and spread to ten
other buildings before it finally was
stamped out. The commander of the
first fire department unit to arr.ve on
the scene, Chief John Towey, saw
that while he had enough equipment,
he lacked men to battle the flames
until reinforcemtens arrived. When
Chief Towey called for volunteers,
more than 200 spectators responded.
Three volunteers, five regular fire
men, a policeman and a worker in
the cellulose plant were injured before
the fire was'extinguished. One, the
workmai is in a serious condition.
