a number Of years, until she married

her husband to Willmar, and aided in
establishing a home which she main
tanned in most faithful manner for
the comfort of her family during
time of over fifty years.
Mrs. Larson also entered with ef-
fective effort into matters pertaining
to the welfare of community life with
attention to the sick and needy. She
was identified with various societies

church, was on his eastern trip he
made a comforting call on her.

Bureau AT Duluth
Is Ordered Closed

Duluth, Mimi, June 2.-Declarins
that the unemployment crisis has
passed. the welfare committee Of the
local American Legion post has or
dered the posts employment bureau
closed. The bureau was established
last fall when the situation became
acute. Hundreds of former service
men were placed in temporary or per-
manent positions. The names Of 600
idle ex-service men were registered
with the bureau on January /. At the
close of business today SO were regis
tered. These have been turned over
to the city employment bureau.
Orders for 1000 men are on file
with Duluth labor agencies. but in
many instances men refuse to accept
work because of low wage scales, ac-
cording to Jos. Burke, manager of
the state bureau here.
Existing wages for laborers range
from $3.50 to 1926 a day for a ten
hour day. Mr.. Burke believes wages
will advance during the month.
There is little demand for farm
help here. most Of the openings be-
ing for woodsmen. miners. roadwork-
ers and construction workers.

Dear Sir: At the last session OF the

amendment (House Bill Mo- 1860
making the terms of. supreme court
judges tcn->years. subject to recall,
was introduced. The judge elected in
1922 receiving the highest vote. to
serve forsten years, the next highest
for eight years and the other for six
years. ,
7 This measure passed the house but
was killed in the senate, the rule be-
iHE that any bill passed by one house
should.ibe killed in the other.
believe this measure is meri-
torious and that its enactment will
do away with the present "free-for-
all" that we have every six years.
The term Of railroad commissioners
should be six years. one being elected
every&two years. Their work Us
technical, experience highly desirable.
and "a SIX year term should go far
towards increasing efficiency.
