Grand Forks has always had a

Smith states that he believes this

the boys are looking for a fast and
hard contest and are prepared for
it. The outcome of the game will
have no bearing on the district title,
however, since Grand Forks is not in
this state.

Chicago, Sept. 30.-President w.
G. Lee of the Brotherhood of Rail
road Trainmen last night said that if
the strike vote cast by ninety per cent
of the 10000 members in the re-
cent referendum on the wage reduc-
ton should be supported by the griev-
ance committee, a tentative strike or
der would be issued, effective only
when and If other unions should
strike, @
! With this parting declaration,
President w. G. Lee dispatched fifty
seven general chairmen of the union
to their homes last night with written
instruction to call their grievance
committees, get their approval or dis
approval Of the strike vote and re-
port back here next week.
That the grievance committees will

Lee expects to act on the commit

EX-SERVICE MEN AIR
CLAIMS BEFORE SQUAD
Veterans Bureau Clean-Up
Squad Reviews Claims From
11S War Veterans

That Beltrami county and four adj
joining counties furnished their share
of the fighters in the recent war was
clearly evidenced by the fact that
11S ex-service men appeared before
the travelling squad of the Veterans
Bureau, which held hearings here
Wednesday and Thursday, and aired
their claims, both new and old.
Of this number, four were taken
with the squad to Thief River Falls,
where hearings are being held today
and tomorrow, since this number had
not been examined when the time
came for the squad to move it's head
quarters.
A number of those whose claims
were heard, and who were also ex-
amined physically, were given trans
portation to the government hospitals
in the Twin Cities, either for further
examination of treatment. Claims
for vocational training and comren-
sation were also reviewed.
A large number of those who at
tended did not put in request FOR
transportation previously. Conse-
quently, they were given their fare
to their homes at the conclusion Of
the hearing, and will be reimbursed
by the Minneapolis office of the bu-
reau for their railroad fare here and
also for their meals and lodging paid
for by themselves.
The squad carried two doctors, DR..
Bank of Minneapolis and DR.. St.
Claire of Duluth. Mr.. Warren of the
Veterans Bureau heard the claims,
while Mr.. Otis of the Red Cross as
sisted him, and also aided in making
out the applications and affidavits.
A stenographer for the assistance of
the doctors completed the squad.
The local chapter of the Red Cross
and the American Legion furnished
four stenographers, besides the neces-
sary equipment which is not carried
by the squad. Miss Beth MacGrcgor
and Mrs. Pollock of the Red Cross
assisted in the registration work. Mrs.
H. l.. Huffman Of the \Women's
Auxiliary of the Legion had charge
Of the information desk. G. L. Pcge-
low and N. e. Given represented the
Legion and assisted in various ways
during the hearings.

Now, Krupps is a mammoth steel

Krupps is merely sample. What

only industry suffering a slump is

the fact that Germany can now buy

CASS LAKE HUNTER IS
CONFINED TO HOSPITAL
Accidental Shooting Results in
Amputation of Alfred
Peterson's Left Arm

Alfred Peterson Of Cass Lake, who
suffered the loss of his left arm while
hunting ducks last Thursday near
Winnibigoshish, is still confined to St.
Anthony-hpspital. The arm was am
putated near the shoulder.
The following article from the
Cass Lake Times describes the acct
dent which occurred to Mr.. Peter
son:
Last Thursday evening in the duck
fields near Winnibigoshish while he
was padding from the days hunt, a
gun was accidently discharged in the
canoe in which he was padding and
the shot completely riddled the left
arm of Alfred ("Gafe") Peterson.
Luckily for Peterson, DR.. Borreson
of Bemidji was in the hunting party
and the injured arm was bandaged
up with what little first aid bandages
they happened to gather among the
hunters and the lad was taken to Bena
where they caught train to Be-
midi Gangrene set in and despite
the fact that young Peterson was
weak from the terrible loss of blood
during the ride from Bena, operation
had to be made and the arm was am
putated near the shoulder. Peter
son went under the knife like a hero
and is resting quietly at St. An
thongs hospital at Bemidji and will
be there for several months. How
the accident happened is still mys-
terry, as it was dark and happened so
quick that even Peterson doesn't
know what really happened. The
gun used was hammerless variety
and was lying over one Of the stays
in the canoe when it went off, just
catching Peterson ON his paddle arm.
