PAGE EIGHT THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN FRIDAY, APRIL 22, 1927 Northern Senator Explains Farmers League Movement Lynn Fraser, North Dakota Tells of Origin and Aim of Non-Partisan Activities Senator Lynn J. Fraser, only recalled governor in the United States spoke to University students this morning in central Administration building on the non-partisan league movement. Senator Fraser is in North Dakota "dirt farmer" and vitally interested in the problems of the University and elected governor of North Dakota on the non-partisan league ticket and later elected to the United States senate on the same platform. In his talk this morning Senator Fraser explained briefly the history of the Non-Partisan League of North Carolina, which was formed by the farmers of that state realized that they were at the mercy of the grain combinations and the railroad. State owned terminal electors were given by 81 per cent of the voting population. Legislature of 1915 Fails The man who were sent to the legislature in 1915 failed to fulfill their mission of representing the largest per cent of the people and voted against the measure for state owned terminal elevators. Senator Prazer Szabo wrote that he would represent the people represent only a special privileged group, government is a failure." It was this failure to receive fair representation that caused the farmers to organize the Non-Partisan League. According to Senator Fraser the legislative body of 1919 which was composed largely of representatives of the Non-Partisan League is the only known legislature which carried a platform on which it was elected. League Aim to Aid Farmers The purpose of the league is to aid the farmer by building rural credit banks, state grain mills and elevators. Big business strongly opposes all that the League stands for because as Senator Ferran said "it will cut out the easy profits of the milling grain and banking businesses." In the winter of 1921 several members of the legislature who had been elected on the non-partisan platform were recalled. Senator Fraser who was then governor of the state, was among them. "I would not sell out," he said, "even to hold my job as governor." Concluding his talk Senator Prensel said "It is discouraging to know that it is impossible to get legislature to aid the farmer. Two thirds of the men on the legislative bodies have been trained to take either side of a case for money. We must keep up the pace of change, and educate the public are elected. We must work for the greatest good to the greatest number." Another Ice Age Feared If Cold Wave Continue Fearing the worst, local weather dosters are wondering if another ice age is descending upon Kansas. Having witnessed practically every other kind of nature's calamities in the past few weeks, they feel that a glacial period would be a fitting climax. Although no report has been heard to report the local "ice" events at any hour to hear reports from Tonganoxia or other points north that a great glacier is working southward. The committee in charge of the Kansas Relays was wondering this morning if they should continue the present plans for the carnival, hold a skating contest, or turn it into a channel swim. The latter plan is receiving favorable comment. If the Kaw river continues to rise the swimmers could take off at the base of Fourteenth street and finish at the state capitol in Topeka. The forture, it is希望 to the long distance of the Mexican Indians be a good advertising scheme for the floating university which is to be started on Mt. Oread if high water continues. It is pointed out that in California it often rains for a month at a time and the native sons brag about it. In Kansas if it rains a week half the population is rainless and the other optimists are looking for a few native sons in Kansas out they are giving up the search after the second week of rain.

The model to be shown was constructed by Harold Krommes, a machinist in the employ of the Kansas City Terminal Railway Company. He began the model several years ago and worked on it only in his sparse time, a total of more than three thousand hours. The type of locomotive he used in making the model was that used on the Rock Island's Golden State Limited. It is constructed so that it will work with any gauge. The loco is at feet long and weighs 150 pounds.
