Ryan Is Endorsed
By Farm Council
Frear Failed To Take Active In.
terest In Support Of Measure
Which Aimed To Secure Equality
For Agriculture

Last winter when the farmers Of
the Northwest stood with Their
backs to the wall fighting for ex-
istence a delegation headed by F. W.
of the largest farmers and ablest
Murphy of Wheaton, Minnesota, one
men in that state, went to Washing
ton and spent several weeks trying
to prevail upon Congress to pass a
bill, the object of which was
place agriculture on the same plane
as laborand manufacture. A care
full examination OF the records fell
to disclose where Congressman Frear
uttered word of encouragement to
those men who were doing what he
should have been doing. The bill
failed, as did several other bills in
PRODUCED for like purpose. Dis
couraged, but not disheartened these
men called meeting which was held
in st. Paul last July and organized
the american Council of Agricul-
ture," the sole object of which was
to secure and maintain Equality for
Agriculture" The organizers of
the council had spent weary weeks
in Washington, begging for SOM
thing they should not even be ex-
pected to ask for. Thew know who
were their friends and who were not.
The organization is Non-Partisan,
it's sole object being to obtain
Equality for Agriculture"
After investigating they have en-
dorsed Captain T. A. Ryan for Con-
gress. 1t would seem that with this
endorsement every farmer in the
10th district should support and work
forsCaptain Ryan. The very object
of this organization is to investigate,
recommend and help elect to Con-
gress men who will be honest with
the farmer. The letter endorsing
Captain Ryan follows:
Mr.. t. A. Ryan,
New Richmond, Wis.
Dear Sir:
Acknowledgement is gladly and
appreciatively made hereby of the
fact that as candidate for election to
Congress you have pledged yourself
if elected to vote for and actively
support legislation that will give
American agriculture equality with
American industry and labor.
This should and does entitIe you
to the favorable consideration of all
voters of your district who recognize
the necessity for securing a restored
and soundlys founded agriculture.
You are welcome to make proper
use of this letter in connection with
your campaign in the Forthcoming
election. We are making dir ect re-
port to member organizations with
in your territory.
Yours very truly,
American Council of Agriculture.
r. A. Cowles,
Secretary.

PHALEN-LUTHER HOLDS
PEDS TO LONE SCORE

The Teachers and Preachers
battled through four sweltering
periods of alleged football in St.
Paul last Saturday afternoon in a
game which either demonst rated
an awful slump on the part af the
River Falls Normal squad, or sur
prising strength for Luther Phalen
seminary.
Coach Egg ebrecht played his
second string men during practically
all of the first half, and although
they held their opponents on even
terms the subs were unable to score.
With less than three minutes left
to play ten of the regulars were sub
stituted to put over a Red & White
touchdown, but 15-yd. penalty off
set the advantage and the half ended
scorless when Mike Smiths 30
yard dash was stopped within a foot
of the goal.
River Falls put over the lone tally
of the game early in the third
quarter, Quandt carrying the ball
behind the goal. Goal was missed,
and the final score was to in favor
Of River Falls.
The Red & White will open the
conference season against Stout at
Menomonie Saturday as feature of
Stout's Homecoming festivities. A
large delegation of, students and city
rooters plan to accompany the team
to Menomonie.

City OF Barron
Seeks Service Tip
Mayor And Councilmen Visit River
Falls For Information On Muni-
cipal Power Plant-Sharp Rate In
crease Threatens Barron

The Mayor and four Councilmen of
Barron spent last Wednesday IN
River Falls for the purpose Of get
ting information regarding this
city's municipal electric light and
power service, and especially to note
the operation of the De La Vergne
vertical Diesel oil engine which IS
operated in connection with the
water power here.
Barron, according to the visitors,
is struggling for release from its re-
lance upon the service of the
Northern States Power Co. The
city at first operated its own plant,
water power station similar to the
che here. Increased patronage soon
overtaxed the small plant, and con-
tract for auxiliary service was made
with the Wisconsin Minnesota COM
pany, later taken over by the North
ern States Co. The old contract has
expired, and Barron is threatened
with an almost double rate increase
in renewing the contract.
Her city officials visited River
Falls last week to learn what they
could about the oil engine and how
the same idea might be Incorporated
into their own municipal plant so
that it will not be necessary for them
to again be at the mercy of outside
service.
The visitors were conducted about
in their investigation here by City
Electrician E. E. Buck, who put the
auxiliary oil engine into operation
and explained it to them, giving the
record Of its performance since its
installation on October %, 1928, just
about year ago.
The total output of the Diesel en-
CINE to date is 1900 killowats, on
consumtion of 1850 gallons of
fuel oil and 118 gallons of lubricating
oil, The fuel costs 6l2 cents a gal
Ion in the tank here, and the lubricat-
ing oil So cents a gallon, which figur-
KS out to a fraction over sixty-one
-hundredths Of a cent per killo-
watt hour.
From these figures, Mr.. Buck
pointed out to the committee, it may
be readily seen that this engine is
hydro-electric powers nearest COM
petitor in the matter of economy, if
the plant is operated by the NUM-
cipality or individual using the
power. To date not a cent has been
paid out in repairs on this engine.
'The years trial." says Mr.. Buck,
proves that the Diesel engine is one
Of the best on the market"
The committee of officials from the
city of Barron left with very high
opinion of the municipal power and
light service here, and no doubt they
will do all in their power 70 install
an auxiliary engine of similar make
at Barron so that their city will not
be dependent upon an outside COM
pany and forced to pay the higher
rates.
