SHORT STRIKE

Last Saturday morning the Elec-
trical Workers in the employ of the
Puget Sound Internatiopal Railway
& Power Co. struck against their
line foreman, Chas. Boreing, alleg-
ing inefficiency and mcompetency.
Only two meetings of the strikers
were held. On Monday morning the
company acceded to the demands of
the strikers, denoted Boreing and
allowed the men to elect their own
foreman, which they did, selecting
Charles Weinosky, an old employe
of the company.

Ruling of Supreme Court
The Rev Kvale then appealed to
the Minnesota Supreme Court. That
tribunal rendered a decision affirm
ing the lower courts action in the
ruling against Kvale, but also elm
mated Volstead as the relubhcan
candidate. This left the party with
out a candidate. The republican
congressional committee then named
Nolstead and by this devious method
he finally became the party candidate
to succeed himself.
kvale also remained in the run
ming as an Independent candidate,
supported by the nonpaI tisan leGg9o
and the labor organizations He is
making a great campaign and de-
serves to be elected at the general
election November ,. He is a pro
gressive and will srve the people
and not the Wall street interests.
Nolstead voted for the Cummins-
Esch bill and has an anti-labor rec
ord of long accumulation. Kvale is
for repeating the railroad act,
Disciple of La Toilette
The Rev. O. j. Kvale is of Nor
wegian descent, was born on an Iowa
farm in 1869, attended the public
schools and for twenty-three years
was pastor of a church at Oxford
vile, Wis, where he became a politi-
cal disciple Of Senator Robert Nj. La
Toilette. He later took charge of a
church at Benson, MINI, where he
now resides.
The railroad boys Of the seventh
Minnesota district are for Kvale to
man. He has the support of farm
ers and all others who want to di-
vorce the government at Washing
ton from the predatory interests. He
won the primary election fairly, was
euchered by the political machine and
is entitled TO the election by every
honest and rightful consideration.

Annual Report of Banking Board Re-States Oppo-

Time Credits = Greater Production Without
Waste Urged to Reduce H. c. of L.

Washington. Feb. 25.-Determin,
alton of the federal reserve board tc
exert the full power of the reserve
banking system in regulating and
controlling the credit situation, q
course designed to aid commerce
and industry in restoring a pre7war
equilibrium--was disclosed in the
boards annual report, made public
today.
The board was prepared to "test
the ability of the system to check
expansion and to induce healthy Ii
quidation." The board explained it
was aware of the implied power to
rectify the condition which confronts
the country. This power necessar-
lily followed the authority for and
employment Of an elastic system OF
reserve credit and note issue, it was
added.
Recommendation also were made
to congress for amendment of the
reserve act which would permit re-
serve banks to establish normal
maximum lines of credit accommo.
dation for member banks. An as
cendng scale of rates would be pro-
vlded in event money was borrowed
above the maximum line. This, the
board believed, would work to the
end that credit expansion on large
scale would be stopped.
Warns Against Deflation.
Warning was given that the coun-
try must guard against too rapid de-
fiation. 1t was pointed out, how
ever, that some remedies employed
to correct initiation might create
even worse conditions than imitation
itself.
"Deflation merely for the sake of
deflation and a speedy return to
normal defation merely for the
sake of restoring security values and
commodity prices to their pre-war
levels without fegard for other con-
