ssdnds for Hero Memorials.

Unexpended funds in the hands OF
war committees throughout the state
rlay be used in erecting memorials for
war heroes, under O ruling by Attor-
ney General William j. Morgan. Nor
gan made his ruling in the case of the
Committee of Fifteen of Racine. II
establishes a precedent in the case OF
many other committees which have
funds on hand but have held off from
doing anything with them until the at
torney general handed down deci-
sion. 1t is expected the decision Will
result in the erection of war me-
MORALS in many parts of Wisconsin.
In making his decision, Morgan makes
it plain that it is not an official opin-
ion. This is not subject on which
this department can render an official
opinion" he wrote the Racine commit
tee. Il understand the fund pledge
card, stating the conditions on which
this money was subscribed for war re-
lief, bears the following: Any moneys
or property remaining in this fund at
the conclusion of peace and after the
foregoing purposes have been salts
fed, shall be used for such Racine
county public charitable objects as
the committee may determine The
fund pledge card referred to is be-
lieved to have been generally used by
all committees in the state and there
fore the decision would apply to their
cases. The Racine committee proposes
to build public auditorium as me-
mortal. 1T is my opinion the erection
of such a public auditorium as me-
mortal to the Racine county war he
roes would satisfy the clause above
quoted as being charitable object,
wrote Morgan. II think it is justified
on two grounds: First an auditorium
for public use would be charitable
use and public benefit; second, such a
memorial would be a lasting means OF
perpetuating the patriotism OF the
community, without which the coun-
try could not endure, and would be of
perpetual educational and spiritual
benefit to the public"

LITERARY SOCIETY
HEARS MISS BRADY
ON WOMEN'S CLUBS

The Ladies Literary society at its
regular meeting last Monday after
noon, heard a delightful address by
Miss Mary A. Brady, home demon
stration agent. Miss Brady's talk
dealt primarily with her work in the
county among women. She told of
the tremendous interest exhibited in
community clubs by ladies in small
rural communities, and declared
that in some of the larger villages
club rooms are maintained. At first
the men were rather amused at the
idea of "Women's Clubs and OPP
posed them, but now they realize
the advantages of mixing and meet
ing each other. There are twenty
other clubs in Marathon county,
Boosting total mem bership of $50.
Supt. S. B. Tobey also delivered
talk on the city schools, and he
brought up many points of interest.
The Ladies Literary society decided
to voluntarily subscribe individually
for stock in the holding company of

.kIWANIS CLUB
GETS CHARTER
PROMINENT MEN START A
DEVELOPMENT ASSN
AT MERRILL

The Upper Wisconsin Development
association was organized at Merrill
last week to include the counties of
Lincoln, Oneida, Price, Iron, Villas.
Forest and Taylor. F. G. Smith of
Merrill was elected president. From
the Merrill Herald the following ar
ticle is clipped:
The organization is the result of
several very largely attended and
highly interesting meetings held dur
ing 1920, particularly the preliminary
meeting at Tomahawk, and second
large meeting at Rhinelander at each
of which over 200 representative citi-
zens of the Upper Wisconsin valley
We're present. Judge G. NJ. Sheldon
was the foundeN of the organization
and prominent in its founding was the
Tomahawk Civic and Commercial club
Heretofore, Upper Wisconsin De-
velopment associations have been
either for the advancement of the lum-
bering interest or dominated by the
men representing the lumber interest
which was the principal industry
throughout the early history of this
region. Today, however, with the ra-
pid development of dairy and diversi-
fed farming on the fertile lands of
this are of the state, and with the sud-
den development of the beautiful lake
resort region at the north, other in
terests and activities have come to
the front and rank with the lumber
ing business.
The people of the counties included
in the association have common inter
ests which a development association
covering this region can aid and pro-
mote to the best advantage. Parti-
cular attention is to be given to a
practical conservation program which
will include demonstration of nom
agricultural land reserve timber areas
on the many miles of lake fronts and
develop the lake region and to gener-
ally increase its renown as the play
ground of the Middls West" At the
samet ime it is expected to insure the
development of available agricultural
lands into farms: In other words,
conservation on practical lines that
will not "jungle-ize" good agricultural
regions but will insure preservation
of forest growth which has been so
unnecessarily destroyed and will in
sure demonstration on proper areas
under proerly productive and pro-
tective system.
1t is to be an aim of this Upper
Wisconsin Valley Development associ-
alton to promote practical land
| clearing, home-making program on
lands fitted for that purpose. 1t is
the contention of the state and federal
government can better afford to de-
yedope good agricultural lands in up
per Wisconsin than to drain the
swamps of Florida or reclaim the de-
sert area of the west This can be
put on a practical business PROPOSE
ton which will result in a vast area
being made into farms.
The association is, furthermore,
working for such other propositions
which are common in interest in this
locality, such as taxation and proper
disbursements of public funds, the es-
tablishment of educational facilities
throughout this region.

Farmers Back Food Price Act.

Farmers in the legislature are hay
ing prepared a bill to turn the mar
keting commission into state trade
commission with sweeping powers to
prevent profiteering. It will be pro-
posed that the commission shall have
power similar to the national powers
of the federal trade commission. No
attempt would be made to regulate
prices beyond establishment of the
machinery to stop profiteering. Real
,izing that this would be one of the
most drastic bills, the farmers have
decided that before it is introduced
lit shall be submitted to a statewide
conference of Representatives of farm
organizations.

Nav Increase Governors Pay.

! An effort TO afford future governors
additional compensation will be at
tempted during this legislative session
The present law allows the chief ex-
ecutive only $1,000 a year. He is given
house in Madison, two servants and
a car for his personal use. Nothing
lis allowed him over his $1,000 per an
mum In financial compensation. All
travelling expenses, whether on official
duties or not, must be paid out Of the
$1,000. II viii therefore be proposed
that the governor be allowed a sum
each year for travelling expense.
