err. and Made Arrangements
for Future Meetings

Baudette, May I'D. c. Dvor-
acek, recently elected county agent
for Beltrami county, made his first
visit to the northern end of the coun-
ty last week, coming in on Tuesday
evening and leaving Friday night.
According to an agreement reached
at a joint meeting of executive COM
.mittees of both ends of the county,
only one agent was to be employed,
and he will spend one-fourth of his
time in this end of the county. This
arrangement was reached as it was
financially impossible to maintain an
agent at each end at this time.
June 2nd Next Visit.
Becaiise Of the limited time the
:agent can spend here-whicn is fur
Their limited by the unsatisfactory
train connections between Bemldj1,
the county headquarters, and Bau-
~dette, and also because of bad roads
south of Kelliher, it is extremely de-
sirable to make the greatest possible
use of his time while here. His time
can be used most efficiently by ar
ranging for meetings Of various COM
munity organizations which he can
attend and address on topics Of inter-
est to each community. These topics
con be discussed and plans maze &C
cordingly fir an organized effort to-
ward Improvement. The county
agent has set the second week of
June for his visit. Officers Of the
various organizations. such as farm
ers' clubs and community clubs are
urged to arrange for meetings for
that week, thus cooperating with the
agent in extending his service as
widely as possible. They should COM
:municate with him, setting dates, en-
aiding him to arrange schedule for
his time.

is the title of new bulletin which is
now ready for distribution, announces
R. G. CholmeleyJones Of the Bureau
of War Risk Insurance.
The circular, which is addressed to

which may be obtained from the

forth the warning that certificate of
injury from the bureau, within one
year from the date of discharge or
resignation, is necessary to preserve
eligibility for compensation on the
part of anyone who received injury
or contracted disease while in the
service.
To quote the bulletin: mo COM
pensation is payable unless the dis
ability or death can be traced to an
injury or a disease incurred in the
service.
"Many persons, however, have re-
ceived injuries or contracted disease
in the service and the i'll effects
thereof do not appear until some
time after their discharge or resigna-
ton. If the disability resulting from
the injury or disease contracted in
the service does not occur before one
year after discharge or resignation
YOU may be unable to obtain COM
pensation, for the law provides that
when such disability or death occurs
as shown by the medical evidence
after one year after your discharge,
a certificate of injury must have been
obtained from the director of the
bureau, within the year from the
date of your discharge in order that
the government may pay you, or your
dependents. ,
IF YOU were injured or contracted
dis -ase while in the service. even
though the injury or disease was OF
a minor character, be sure to apply
for a certificate of injury before one
year after the date of your discharge
or resignation, in order to protect
yourself and your dependents. Act
now.
3Do not fail to get this certificate
if you sustained injury or disease
in the service which, even though it
may not bother you now, may be-
come aggravated hereafter. Apply
to the nearest District Supervisor OF
the Public Health Service or write
to the Chief Medical Advisor, Bureau
of War Risk Insurance, Washington,
D. c., giving your full name, serial
number, and organization, and rank
at the time of discharge or resigna-
tion."
The compensation and insurance
claims division of the Bureau has ap-
proved 147,081 claims for compensa-
ton on account of disability through
service, and now is making payments
thereon eacah month to the extent
of 81, 488, 058.31.

Ell Paso, Texas, May 17.-Carran-

pursuit of the fugitive president, re-
ports here said. General Angular,

Mexico City, May Is by Ralph
Turner), via Laredo Jet, May IL
Dramatic accounts of the heroic last
stand of Venuestino Carranza, de-
posed president of Mexico, at Rincon-
dada, reached here tonight. Without
water or provisions, out numbered
and surrounded on practically all
sides the Carranza personnel led by
General Murguia, and the first chief
fought bravely to the last. Reports
praised unstintedly the bravery OF
Murguia. But for his determination,
rebel advices said, the Carranzista
probably would have collapsed. He
led them in desperate charge which
resulted in their cutting their way
through the revolutionary ring and
escaping into the mountains.

TO CAST VOTES FOR HOOVER.

Detroits June 17-Michigan's Dem ocsctlc delegation will cast its first bal1os Eor Hoover at San Francisco, when bal1oting begins.
 ttI shall vote for Hoover out Of re- spect for the Primary law" said former Judge William F. Connolly, National Committeeman, but I shall vote only once. I hope the rest Of the delegation will do the same thing"
 Following a meeting of several men who worked for Hoover in the pri- maries, it was said that 40 per cent. of the state delegation was back of the food administrator.
 /t'The Hoover strength in the party is surprising,' said one of the men who attended. There are some who still feel that the choice of Michigan Democrats in the primary is the log ica1 nominee. These men are willing to overlook the factathat Hoover chose the Republican party just before the primaries. They feel that the food administrator is big man, we'll liked and capable. They will support him in San Francisco.
 The party leaders do not think the same way. Hoover is done as far as they are concerned There h a law
