MEN WILL BENEFIT
BY WAGE INCREASE
Seven Employees Here Receive
Extra Money Due Since jan
uary, 1918-Totals ST, $50

:: Bemidji expressmen expect the
bonus promised them by Director
General Hines of the United States
railway commission, to arrive with
their monthly checks on May 10,
Thomas Lloyd, in charge Of the local
Office, states. The total bonus for
the local men will approximate ST.
$50. -
Although the increase was an
nounce to be $25 per month, to be
paid for each month since January
Il. 1913, those who have been in
creased since that time will have the
increase deducted from the bonus
Lloyd said. In most cases this will
put the increase at about SIS, since
a. great many clerks received $40
boost some time during the year.
ssSS All men holding positions created
since July l, 1918, when the govern
2ment took over the express COM
spanies, are not entitled to the bonus,
Mr.. Lloyd said, as it applies only to
those filling positions which were in
force January l, 1918.
Seven of the local employees will
be affected by the raise, Mr.. Lloyd
estimates, since the trainmen, or
.y'msssengers." have had an increase,
.sA1i II granted any at all will amount
to about $3.50 a month. There are
in the United States approximately
$4,000 employees who will be affected

president of the United States praises
their planting of memorial tree in
honor of the boys who went to wal
from Coilamer. The report Of the
tree planting was made to the Ameri-

registering all memorial trees in a
national honor roll. fhe association
informed the vice-president who was
so proud of the home folks, Collamer
being in his home county, that he
wrote the following letter: I. I. I.
My Dear Mr.. Galbreath: rs r..
The idea appeals to ME far more
than storied urn or animated bust.
1t embodies a living thing, represen-
tative of a vital sentiment Of the
American people and hope IL is go
ing to be universally popular in
America. When the tree shall grow
large enough a fitting plate can be
attached to each one of them bearing
the names of the soldiers.
OF course it rejoices me to know
that citizens Of my country, under
your leadership, have been among
the first to take advantage Of this
idealistic and patriotic movement.
May Heaven send sunshine and
showers upon these trees, 80 that
they may live to a distant age--VitaI

Fourteen Million Over Quota.
CAPTURE OF RUSSIAN !.
TRADE is PLANNED
(By United Press. }

Washington, May 1O,-The Scan
dfnavian countries-Sweden, Nor
way and Denmark-will struggle to
hold the commercial advantages they
have gained over Germany on the
Ihfgh seas and in northern Europe
during the war, Scandinavian diplo-
mats here announced today.
Three plans stand out in the cam
paign, as follows: -
Capture of large share of Russian
trade.
Replacement of Hamburg by Cop
enhagen as distribution port for
northern Europe.
Enlargement of merchant marines
and manufacturing facilities of the
three countries. d
Scandinavia has a detailed pro-
gram for a trade Invasion of Russia
as soon as conditions there become
normal, it was stated. Commercial
relations already have been resumed
with Finland and to a certain extent
with Poland and such portions of the
Baltic states formerly under Russian
control that are free from bolshev-
ism. =
Copenhagen, it is learned, -four
fshed as a free port, during the war
and work on gigantic harbor en-
largement scheme was begun i'm
mediately upon the German collapse,
with the end in view of permanently
-eclipsing the free port of Hamburg,
beforeSthe war the general distribut-
ing center ot, foreign goods in north
ern Europe.
The Scandinavian merchant, mar
inc suffered heavy U-boat losses par=
ticularly Norway, but each country
has laid its claims before the peace
conference and expects tonnage COM
pensation from Germany. Swedish
figures place the present size of the
German commercial feet, allowing
war losses and allied confiscation, at
100000 tons.
1t is held that if Scandinavia
losses are made good, the northern
countries will be on an equal sea
footing with Germany.
The Kingdoms realize that they
must be to certain extent industrial
to figure heavily in the Russian
trade and to this end considerable
manufacturing enterprises are under
construction and contemplated.
Cheap electric power in Norway and
Sweden is expected to attract foreign
manufacturers. A plan has been
suggested for bringing this power to
Denmark too by undesea cables.
Swedish steamship companies have
formed a com bination to promote
Swedish trade in the Levant and the
ORIENT according to Stockholm ad-
vices. Eight vessels have been put
into the initial line to the ports of
Odessa, Constantinople, Pireus, Smy-
rna and Sa1oniki.

TURN TO THE RIGHT" SHOW
DELIGHTS GRAND AUDIENCES

Turn to the Right" which was
SO delightfully."- presented at the
Grand theatre yesterday, is a strong
emotional play which grips the au-
dience for two, hours and q half.
Briefly, it tells Of the translation of
three youths from the depths OF
crime to life amid the pure environ
ment ora fruit farming country and
later to prosperity. The story does
not penetrate deep enough into the
doings of the underworld to become
objectionably suggestive nor does the
hidden influence which, after the
manner of@The Potter re-shaping hu-
man derelicts, become ostentatious
enough to make the moral message
Of the play appear a sermon. In the
cropping of the trio passing from
darkness into the light are many
tense situations which bring Jumps
to the throat, but they are only di-
versions which tend to bring into
sharper relief the rich comedy with
which the play abounds. The story
is so designed for the best in original
humor and the New York all-star
cast took full advantage OF It..
Splendid music was provided by the
Riggs Family orchestra.
