Spud Campaign Production
Now Over in Polk County
Leaders There Have Signed More
Than 1S, 700 Acres-Contest
Announced

Polk, second heaviest potato pro-
ducing county in the state, has OBJ
tanned it's quota. This was an
nounced last week from the state
headquarters at st. Paul. Official
records give Polk 18,440 acres, 60
more than legally required.
The state membership last week
was 7,706 with 112,404 acres under
contract.
Success of the work in Polk is due
to cooperation between farmers and
business men. 1t was the business
men of Crookston who started the
campaign last fall when they closed
their places of business and spent a
day signing memberships. To C. H.
Zealand, secretary of the special Red
River Valley committee, C. G. Sell
Wig, superintendent of the Northwest
Experiment station, L. M. Bond and
scores of eactive farmers goes credit
for the success of the campaign.
Signing Folks quota marks the be-
ginning of the end of the campaign
in the Red River Valley. When state
committee receives 5000 more acres
from Clay county, every county will
have it's quota and more. Official
records show that Kittson now has A
per cent more than the total COM
mercial acreage.

nounced special Victory contract

Toll of tuberculosis
Decreased During 1922

Washington.-The Department of
Commerce announces that compilations
made by the bureau of the census
show that 90,542 deaths were due to
tuberculosis in the registration area
Of the United States in 1922, with a
death rate of 81 per 100000 population.
This is q drop of "a since 1921, in
which year the rate was 99.4 per 1O0,-
900 population.
Though II states show increases in
rates for 1922, in % states there are
decreases, indicating that the general
trend is still downward.
10 permit better interstate COMPARE
sons for the year 1922, adjusted rates
based on the standard million popula-
ton have been calculated. The high
est adjusted rate from tuberculosis for
1922 is 172.6 per 100000 population
for Colorado, and the lowest is 36.1
for the adjoining state of Nebraska.
The high rate for Colorado should not
be ascribed to unhealthfulness Of eli
mate, but rather to the fact that the
climate attracts those afflicted with
tuberculosis.
For certain states adjusted rates
have been calculated separately for
the white and colored populations. In
this group of states Tennessee has the
highest adjusted rates Tor both white
and colored, respectively, 1928 and
299.8 per 100000 population. The low
est adjusted rate from tuberculosis for
white population is 54.5 for Mississippi,
and this state and Florida each show
the lowest rate for colored population
--171.5 per 100000 population.

On Tuesday folks at Scranton, Pa, were enabled to visualize labor's con tribution to the comfort and we11-be- ing of community. As is always the case, this visualization was only pos sible after the community had been deprived of the contribution.
 The street car men, the barbers and the butchers went on strike in that town on April 1. The three strikes were separate and distinct, the em- p1oyers having refused to enter into agreements with the men upon ex- piration of the old contracts.
 Men with baby boards, grouchy over being deprived of their daily beef steak, were forced to walk the streets, as the 600 street car employees walked out to a man.

TEXTILE WORKERS
 CALL UPON MILL
 OWNERS "BE FAIR"

Declaring that the textile manufac- turers are very unfair in forcing the workers to assume all the risk of loss and dull periods, the Southern Joint Council of Textile Workers at a meet ing last Saturday adopted strong reso- 1utions, calling upon the nanufactur- esr to play the game like men and assume their full share of the respon- abilities of the industry. It was em- phatically stated by many delegates i'll speaking on the resolution that the employers are very one-sided in their contention of business ethics and prac- tice.
 While the resolution dealt only with the practice of curtai1ment in dull times, the discussions went much further than that, and showed how the employers force the workers to bear the brunt of the losses in making cloth, even when bad machinery, poor yarn, bum wrapping or any other of the

NORTH AND SOUTH
 FUED IS STIRRED
 UP IN UNION SUIT
Textile Representative From New England Causes Expulsion of
 Carolina Official.

After a most bitter trial i'll the Caro- lima courts, Harry Eatough, New Eng land organizer for the International Textile Union, won the suit brought against him by P. o. Tucker, former president of the North Charlotte union in Carolina against whom he hao brought charges of disloyalty and who was expelled from the union on trial of the charges. Tucker sued for dam ages and lost out in the lower courts. He appealed to the higher courts and lost out again there this week.
 Tucker had. sued the union and Eatough but the union was ruled out on the decree of the court that a union cannot be sued in the Carolinas. Tucker then charged Eatough with malice in bringing the charges and was assisted by many officers and at taches of the Hssiard Park Manu- featuring company with which he was charged with double crossing the union. Eatough was sent to the south to investigate the trouble and when he found evidence on the unoin's own president promptly brought charges and caused his expulsion.
 The North and the South ante-bel- lum antagonism was injected into the case by Fuckers attorney one William L. Marshall who characterized Eat ough as New England Yankee down here playing on the ignorance of the textile workers for the purpose of put ting money in his own pocket" He referred to hiS as walking delegate from the north, dictating to North Carolinans what to do and filling his pockets at the expense of the textile workers"
 Eatough was represented by Attor- ney J. Frank Flowers, a southerner, and he came back at MT. Marshall with the retort that he (MarshalD was also a Yankee, a Vermonter if you please" and therefore. expressed ur- prise that the northern lawyer would attempt to stir up old prejudices even to win a case against another north erner
 At the end he declined to put on any evidence claiming Tucker had not proved his case. The high court agreed and dismissed the suit

Dr. John A. Ryan, dean of the Catholic university, Washington, declared that genuine patriotism of peace" ib the outstanding need of the country. He made this statement at the opening session of the College and University Conference in behalf of law observance and citizenship. He stated that the oil ivestigation has exposed a most reckless and criminal diregard of the elementary principles of hon. esty by public oficiols. Dr. Ryan said:
 The outstanding need of our coun- try today is a genuine patriotism of peace. We need the patriotism that will impe1 us to love our country's in stitutions, its government and it's peo- pie. In a word, we need the patriot ism which will impel the citizen to love and promote the common welfare. Out standing illustrations of this need are to be found in the attitude of many groups of our citizens toward the pro- hibition law; in the scandals of the oil leases; and in the enormous propagan- da for the Mellon tax bill.
 "The investigation into the oil leases has exposed most reckless and crim- inal disregard of the elementary prin- ciples of honesty by public officials. Apparently there are many persons in our country who do not regard public property as having the same sanctity
