WHY NOT STOP THIS?

Surely it is time the American gov
eminent pinched itself and put an end
to the Canadian propaganda aimed at
stripping the United States of it's
farming man power.
Publishers of weekly newspapers,
particularly those in distinctly farm
ing centers, are being bombarded with
camou1aged news articles sent out by
the Canadian government with the OBJ
iect Of advertising Canadian agricul-
tural possibilities right here in the
United States.
The hope is that the publishers will
print the matter not sensing is injur-
ious effect ON the agricultural interests
they should fight to protect.
Here lies a splendid opportunity for
Postmaster General Work to show his
loyalty and relieve overburdened en-
plOyes from excessive work.
The propaganda is disseminated in
this country in the familiar o. FL. M.
S. Con His Majesty's Service) en-
velopes, the international franking
privilege being used to undermine the
development of this country.
In other words, American taxpayers
are paying for postmen and rural
free delivery men to distribute through
the country Canadian propaganda di-
rected openly against the interest of
the American farmer and the Amer
lean land owner
There may be some question as to
whether the postoffice department,
congress, or the secretary of state
should act in the matter, but some one
should act and without delay.

THE CHILD'S ENEMIES

All Investigations should begin
with and be for the benefit of the
child. The population of the United
States today would be fifteen or
twenty millions more had it not been
for the neglect of the parents and
the municipal governments. More
than fifteen or twenty millions of
children have been born in the United
States in the past fifteen or twenty
years, who have died because OF
criminal domestic, and municipal
neglect.
We belong to the Grassland posses
sion in works of superhciality. We
are excessive takers. but are rather
meagre in labors of worthwhile m
vestigations.
We hate the drudgery of patient,
toiling investigating for the protec-
ton of our children. We have Grim
inally neglected the child prior to
birth and Immediately following his
entrance into the world.
We are perfectly willing for Con-
gress to vote millions of dollars to

STRICKEN AREAS NEED RELIEF

Relief is urgently needed by the por-
tiOns of st. CrOix, Polk, Dunn and
Barron counties that were stricken by
the terrific wind storm in June. The
loss, exclusive of household goods,
timber and crops, is said to exceed
half a million dollars. The storm
laid waste a strip a mile and a half
to six miles wide and twenty miles
long 1t spread destruction in its path,
killing seven people, destroying houses,
barns and damaging growing crops.
Many families are homeless and are
sheltered by neighbors or in state
militia tents. All have sustained Sc
we're losses.
Many of the sufferers have lost ev-
erything they had except the clothes
on their backs. Their homes de-
strOyed, no buildings for their stock,
no money and with poor crop pros
poets, their outlook is most discourag-
ing indeed Thousands of dollars will
be needed to start them anew and tide
them over the winter and, unless they
are given substantial aid in the very
near future they must give up their
little homes and abandon the little
they have left.
Relief associations have been organ
lied in each of the four counties affect
ed by the storm. They have assessed
themselves fifty thousand dollars and
the money is being raised locally. The
little town Of Clear Lake, Polk county,
raised three thousand dollars in less
than a day. These county assessments
cares for the immediate and urgent
needs of the destitute. Two thousand
four hundred siXty-five days labor
has been contributed by men from the
surrounding towns and villages-clear-
ing away debris and erecting tenn
pOrary shelter for the homeless.
Representative Of the National Red
Cross society, the local Red Cross, to-
gether with the director of immigra-
ton, acting as representative of the
state tornado relief committee, have
completed detailed survey and inven-
tory of the losses.
Not one cent of the contributions
will be used for expenses. The state
and local committees are serving with
out pay or any thought of recompense
other than to relieve suffering Every
dollar collected will be sent to the
stricken area and will be distributed
under the direct supervision of the
National Red Cross Society, co-operat
ing with the local and state relief com.
mittees.

A half-column article is going the
rounds of the newspapers of North
ern Wisconsin to the effect that Old
Abe, the famous Wisconsin war eagle,
was captured in what is the proposed
Northern Lakes park. According to
the veteran John Hill, of Ashland, the
Federal soldier who carried Old Abe
during the Civil war and who made
an address at the Old Settlers picnic
at Island Lake, in this county, two
years ago. the famous war eagle was
captured by an Indian, Chief Sky at
a point about two miles south of
Island Lake, on the Geo. Summers
farm, in Chippewa county. However,
the eagle story helps to serve the pur-
pose of advertising the park region
and may help the project to some ex-

We are blowing trumpets and con-
graduating ourselves about the mag
nifcent work we are doing along lines
of sanitation, but we are doing prac-
tically nothing to eradicate the great
venereal diseases that are affecting
and staining ninety-two per cent OF
the population of the United States.
There is a continuous stream from
the ccsspools of society flowing
through the yards and municipal gov
ernments of this country poisoning
the lives Of our children and staining
the characters of our boys and girls.
Before we used antitoxins in diph-
liberia FIVE out Of every ten cases died.
Now. with the use of antitoxins only
one out of ten die.
People who fight vaccination and
other methods by which children are
made immune to disease are the en-
emies of our children. They are the
curses of society. and they ought to
be incarcerated.
The time has come to spend any
amount of money that might be neces-
sary to give to this land boys and

2 REAL CONVICTS ESCAPE
IN MOVIE JAIL DELIVERY

Once in a rare while things go
wrong in the movies in quite a sur
prising manner but rarely if ever does
a jail delivery take place in which real
honest to goodness convicts escape.
This is what actually happened
however, in the filming of some pris-
on scenes in "Where is My Wander
ing Boy Tonight" the picture that is
said to be one of the biggest heart
punch pictures of many years and
which comes to the Unique theater
next Monday and Tuesday.
Scenes were being shot of the hero
of the picture helping the warden es-
cape severe punishment at the hands
of a gang of supposedly escaping con-
victs The escaping cOnvicts were
motion picture actors dressed as con-
victs. During the filming of this big
punch escape scene two real convicts
got mixed up with the actors portray
ing the parts and beat their way to
safety. Not knowing that these two
real cOnvicts were among the actors,
no one paid any attention to them and
they made good their escape. Half
an hour later they were missed and
an alarm sounded. They were re
captured under railroad bridge where
they had hidden themselves and were
lead back to their cells. They seemed
to enjoy their experience hugely. The
escape scenes and railroad locomotive
smash-up in "Where Is My Wandering
Boy Tonight" constitute some of the
biggest punch scenes ever registered
in the movies.

Madison, Wisconsin.
Charity should certainly begin at
home where the objective is as wor-
thy as this and Rusk county should
not turn deaf ear to the call for help
from the stricken areas of our neigh
Dor counties. We have given to the
needy of foreign lands; we must sure
ly be equally liberal with the desti-
tute in our own state.
Send your contribution if you wish
to the News-Budget Office and it will
be forwarded to the state treasurer.
AS a modest starter, the News-Budget
will contribute five dollars to the
fund.

check book. Do it now.

In order to correct an impression
that has gained some currency in diff

my policy should be so fortunate as
to be elected sheriff in the coming

choice for Undersheriff has not been
made as yet. In the event that I do
receive the endorsement of the peo-
pie I expect to choose as Undersheriff
a married man who can reside in the

such is available.

Tex Rickard Acquitted
On Assault Charge

NEW YORK, March 29.-George L..
(Tex) Rickard, sports promoter, who
was acquitted of charges of assault
and abduction in supreme court here
early today, probably will not be called
upon to answer to three similar in
dictments that have been found
against him by the grand jury. This
was indicated by Assistant District At
torney Ferdinand Pecora, who con-
Quoted the trial of Rickard on accusa-
tions made by Sarah Schoenfeld,
aged Is.
Seldom has there been such DEM
onstration in the court room as that
staged when the jury brought in the
verdict freeing Rickard. Hundreds
had fingered about the big building,
thinking the jury would not delib-
crate long before reaching an agree
ment. When the first syllable of the
verdict fell fro NTH clips of the jury''s
foreman, the word was shouted
through the corridors and passed
along to the throng waiting in the
street outside. Rickard was almost
overwhelmed by his friends. but made
his way through the crowd to tels
phone where he called his apartment.
and informed Mrs. Rickard of his ac
quittal.

APPROPRIATION BILL
WITHOUT ROLL CALL
(Ry Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, March 29.-With-
out a roll call the house today passed
the army appropriation bill carrying
approximately $2SS,000,000 to meet
military and non-military expenses of
the war department, during the COM
ing fiscal year.
AS sent to the senate, the measure
provides that by July /, the enlisted
strength of the regular army must be
reduced to 115,000 men exclusive of
1000 Philippine scouts and the num-
Der of officers decreased to 11,000.

EMPLOYING Is men

A new factory, which will make
casket hardware, will be in operation
in Richmond within month. Work
men are busy remodeling the old st.
Johns school on South Fourth street
for factory purposes.
The factory will manufacture locks,
handles, and other hardware used on
caskets. 1t will employ from 20 to 20
men, most of whom will be recruited
from this locality; about 10 of the
more skilled being brought from out
side as a nucleus for the factory
organization
The McClelland Hardware company,
which will occupy the Fourth street
building, has been manufacturing in
Chicago, but is moving to Richmond
on account of its superior facilities for
a small factory in comparison to Chi
cago, where several inconveniences in
labor, supply and transportation have
been experienced.
The large number Of casket factor
les in this section of the country was
also an inducement in the selection OF
the new factory location. Some OF
the local casket companies already
have been customers of the McClel
land Hardware company.
Alterations to the building will moi
be extensive and will be completed
within two weeks. Machinery will be
shipped in and installed as soon as the
building is ready. The factory ex

Beaupre famous for its shrine but the
statue of st. Anne and the historical
relics to which miraculous cure has
been ascribed were saved Monastery
officials estimated the property dam
age at $1,20O,O00.
That greater toll of church relics
was not taken was due to the heroic

haps the most magnificent structure
in the province.
