THE SIXTH DISTRICTS
OPPORTUNITY

Now that Congress has decided to
pay it's members salary of $4,000
per year in the opinion of the Herald
it is poor business policy for the Sixth
District of Minnesota to retain a
$3.50 year man like harold knutson
when there is an abundance of bet
ter material in every precinct in the
district.
At the recent meeting of the Min
nesota Editorial Association the Her
aid editor had the honor of nominat-
ing Henry q. Mitchell of the Benidji
Sentinel for president of the organi-
zation for 1925. The gentleman was
unanimously elected and will fill the
position with distinct credit as he is
a journalist of real ability. "Heine'
is the third member Of the Mitchell
tribe to be elevated to the presidency
his father w. B. Mitchell of St.
Cloud, was its first president SO years
ago. About quarter of a century
ago, the greatly beloved and brilliant
Charles S. Mitchell, who passed
away few years ago while serving
as managing editor of the Washing
ton Post, was president of the state
association.
"Heine" is a native of Stearns
county-St. Cloud, in fact. He has
the confidence of every newspaper
publisher in the Sixth district; he has
outstanding ability as an orator; he
is absolutely square all the time; he
has served as governor of, the XII
wants Clubs of the Northwest, and in
every way is fitted to make most
excellent congressman. The Sixth
Districts present misfit, harold knut-
son, also halls from st. Cloud. What
sHeine" would do to harold in st.

We certainly were pleased with the
drawing of the teams for playing in
the tournament. Mr.. Falk attended
the district committee meeting a,
Alexandria on Monday evening. In
all probability Alexandria will de,
feat Glenwood in the first contest
which will take place at 200 P. M
Friday. Osakis should win from
Long Prairie at 800 P. M. Friday.
In the evening, at 7:30 Sauk Centre
will play Fergus Falls, and should
win, as Fergus has won only two
games from district teams and lost
four. We then would play the win
ner of the Alex-Osakis game which
will be played at $3.50 on Friday eve
ming.
Every student should feel it is his
duty to be on hand for all of the con-
tests, especially the games in which
Sauk Centre plays. If we ever hao
chance to win a tournament, this
is the chance, and we are planning
on making the best of our good for

championship will be played Saturday
evening at 500.

SCHOOL NOTES

Sauk Centre defeated Osakis by a
score Of 21-16, on Friday of last
week. The fact that the game was
one of the fastest ever played on the
local floor is not disputed. A large
number of Osakis boosters added
much to the enthusiasm of the game,
which was played to a capacity house.

A NEW POLITICAL ERA

Calvin Coolidge is President of the
United States in his own right.
Although the inaugural services
We're extremely simple, in keeping
with the wishes of the president, Mr..
Coolidge became chief executive of
the United States at High Twelve yes
terday under most unusual condi'
tons.
Heretofore perhaps one hundred
thousand at most have had an made.
quate glimpse of the ceremony, but
yesterday, because of the develop
ment of the radio, citizen in the re-
motest corners of this greatest nation
on earth, were permitted to distinct
ly hear every word that was said
during the inaugural ceremony.
The oath office in itself is simple,
and yet covers everything, as the
President pledges himself to support
the constitution of the United States.
The oath of not exceeding 100 words
was administered by Chief Justice
Taft, the first time in the history of
the Nation that a former President
ever administered this oath to Pres
ident.
The inaugural address of Mr.. Cool
idge was in keeping with the char
,acter of Mr.. Coolidge-simple and
direct, devoid of all superfuity or
ambiguity. During his entire address
Mr.. Coolidge did not use the pro-
noun Cap "I" over half dozen times.
In spite of the simpleness of the
language any one hearing the ad-
dress could not help but be impressed
with the fact Calvin Coolidge is go
ing to be President in fact of the
United States during the next four
years.
AS thrifty New England Yankee
he made a plea for economy in pub
lie affairs and pledged himself to use
every influence of his great office to
see that the government is conducted
along economical lines not inimical to
sound government.
Mr.. Coolidge is a strong believer
in party government, and called at
tention to the fact that the American
people had at the November election
overwhelmingly vetoed the PROPOSE
ton to govern by class. He stated
that any man elected to office as a
member of a certain political party
was in duty bound to work with the
party in carrying out its policies. This
was a direct slap at the LaFollette
wing, the conclusion of which was that
the President was in entire accord with
the action of the majority of the
House and Senate in removing from
party councils men who had been
elected members of Congress as
Republicans but had used every infiu-
ence at their command to defeat the
candidates of that party at the last
election, and by their work as mem
bers of Congress.
His religious feeling was shown at
the conclusion of the address when
he stated that the highest source OF
power to all mankind came not from
human seeking but by Divine gracr
BUSINESS and the seeking of the favor
of Almighty God.

Gould Recommends State
Licenses for Fisherman
Plan Must Be Adopted if Sport Is to
Be Saved-Would Provide
Needed Revenue

Minnesota must have a resident
fishing license law if there is to be
any decent fishing in the state a
decade hence" James F. Gould,
state game and fish commissioner told
800 members of the Hennepin Coun-
ty Sportsmen's club at the annual
dinner meeting of the organization at
the Curtis hotel Minneapolis, Monday
night.
''Under present conditions the
hunters of the state pay into the gen
eral fund treasury every year thous-
ands of dollars, for which they get
nothing but a license to hunt for a
place to hunt" Mr.. Gould said.
Thousands Of dollars are spent by
the game and fish department an
nually for fish hatcheries and fish
propagation work. The fishermen
pay nothing for the privilege of fish
ing"
81 have been assured by thousands
of fishermen throughout the state
that they are in favor of resident
fishing license law, which would en-
able us to catch the nonresident fish
erman who now comes in and takes
the fish that the state is spending
money to furnish. Such law would
provide revenue for the fish work
carried on by the department, but at
the same time permit property own
ers and children to fish without
charge.
"Members of our legislature have
been considering the matter, but
many of those from the rural dis
tricts are without an expression of the
wishes of their constituents on the
proposal. They want to know. The
quicker the citizens of the state get
behind the plan the longer Minnesota
lakes will be a decent place for our
citizens to spend their summers, as
well as the visitors, who are, or
should be, glad of the privilege" Mr..
Gould said.

INDORSE LOCAL MANS PLAN

When G. V. Morse went to Wash-
ington last fall, appearing before the
Federal Farm Loan Board as the Rep
resentative of the Minnesota Farm
Loan Association, he presented a pa
per on Minnesota as an agricultural
state. This paper was prepared on his
own initiative, and he was the only
state representative to present such a
document. The ideo was so favor
ably received by all the members of
the Board in Washington that they
have decided to ask the state repre-
sentatives of all the states in the Un-
ion to prepare a report along the
lines followed by Mr.. Morse, for the
annual Washington convention.

tai in securing the arrest and convic-
ton Of hit and run driver anywhere
in the territory in which the club OPP
crates, as the clubs contribution to
the prevention Of this most dastardly
of motoring offenses, according to j.
w. Maxwell, president Of the club. At
the same time, Maxwell points out the
need for all careful drivers to keep
their eyes on the careless and reck-
less driver and to safeguard them
selves and other motorists and pedes-
trians alike by reporting Immediately
to the proper authorities every in
stance of driving which endangers the
lives Of others.
"A single hit and run driver Is one
too many" he declares. But this
performance is featured on the front
pages of the papers almost daily-so
frequently that the public seems to be
getting calloused to 1t. The time has
come-and 1t has been here for q
long time-when more enforcement
and more stringent enforcement, with
more drastic penalties, is vitality
needed.
"The mere apprehension Of the
guilty is only part OF the job. Care

ligent public opinion, tending to elm.
mate that demagoguery and misrep
resentation which we know so sadly
ihterferes with progress toward the
solution Of many problems of coun.
trywide concern.
''As radio has done so much for the
United States and other nations al
ready, and will do far greater ser.
vice in future, SO radio will accom-
plish marvels for mankind in general
for all the world, when improved
transmission will make it easy for one
nation to talk with another. What all
this will lead to offers dazzling posi-
bilities to the imagination. But 1t will
come to pass-and quickly.
"In my opinion, international broad.
casting-certainly across the Atlantic
will be in operation on a practica.
BILE basis in three to five years."
Consul-General Alexandra Berea of
Spain, who failed himself to tune into
Madrid but enthusiastically congratu.
lated Mrs. Smith for so doing, de-
clared that radio that crosses from.
tiers will facilitate the solution Of
international problems with the CO

Inspired by the principles of universal

Sir Harry Armstrong, Consul-Gen
eral Of Great Britain, wired: Radio
will act as an additional bond o.
friendship and cooperation between
the people Of the United States and
those of the British Empire"
Willis Wing, associate editor OF

unparalleled enthusiasm aroused by
the fact SO many Americans tuned in

PROPHESIES NEW UNDERSTANDING AMONG,
NATIONS WHEN RADIO is FULLY PERFECTED

Another epoch in radio looms just
ahead-international broadcasting ex-
traordinary!
By 1880, maybe in only three years.
time, we will not only hear the voice
of the President of the United States,
butt can listen in when the King of
England or the Premier of France
talks on a subject of world interest;
and just as easily we can tune into
music from Spain or Italy as we are
now doing from transmitting stations
a hundred miles away.
When that great day of perfect
ed transoceanic broadcasting o m e 8
along, a new light Of understanding
and goodwill will shine upon the ma
lions of the earth, and the cause of
universal harmony will find it's most
powerful hacker in the phenomenon
of radio.
These and other striking statements
were made by Joseph D. r. Freed,
radio engineer and president of the
Freed-Eisemann Radio Corporation, at
luncheon following the recent inter
national tests, when silver cup was
presented to the woman who was the
first person to report reception of a
European station on a Brsed-Eise
mann neutrodyne receiver. The win
ner is Mrs. Edna M. Smith, of 121
Highland Avenue, Sprinfield Gardens
Long Island, who heard Paris and
Madrid on loud speaker, several
times, and also tuned in Aberdeen.
In his address Mr.. Freed called at
tention to the comparatively weak
power used by broadcasters here and
abroad, stating that the electrical en-
ergy used was not much more than
needed to light a good-sized room.
Using 1000 times more power Of
fers no great problem to electrical en-.
gineers," stated Mr. Freed. "The time
is soon coming when great power will

"As president of the club l sin
