plan of central financial control Is
an important step.
"This marks the beginning, not
the completion Of the reorganization
of the state government" the gov
ernor said. "The department OF ad-
ministration and finance which comes
into existence Immediately will begin
a survey of state departments to
determine what economies can be ef-
fected in their operation. The con-
solicitations provided for in the re-
organization law inevitably will be
paper consultations until the depart
ments of administrator can work out
the plans for physical consolidation.
"The legislature did not sc as far
as I felt that it should in merging
departments. For instance, the
weights and measures department
was left as an adjunct of the rail-
road and warehouse commission, de-
spite the fact that the members OF
the commission expressed the behe1
that it should be made part OF the

eff the shift had been made, fac
tory inspectors could have taken care
of weights and measures inspection,
especially in the smaller towns, and
the force of inspectors reduced. "A

agriculture would have made other

possible.
However, the legislature did ex-
ceedingly we'll, and the department of
administration and finance will pro-
coed at its task going as far as it
can with the authority it has been
granted.
"The big thing in the organization
law is the budget control. This pow
err will act as brake on lavish ex-
penditures and will be applied with
increasing force as the department
of administration develops it's policy,
until eventually, it is hoped, that ev-
cry unnecessary expenditure will be
stopped.
at should be borne in mind that the
reduction of taxes to the individual
taxpayer will not be marked for the
state spends only 8 cents of the tax
payers dollar. But I feel that the
influence of the states example will
result in elimination of waste in To-
cal government which will make it
self felt in cessation Of the const-
ant increase in the tax burden, if not
in actual tax reduction"

was engaged in similar work. Fifty
two years ago he was united in mar
riage with Miss Andrea Olson, daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Ole Jensen, at
New Ulm. The young couple began
housekeeping there and after a few
years decided to take homestead and
acted accordingly, settling on the farm
in Shutdown, where they resided the
remainder OF Mr.. Pederson's life.
To their union eleven children were
born, three having preceded their
father in death. The remaining chill
dren are: Mrs. John Kagel, Mrs. Sam
Hemmingsen and Otto of Shutdown;
Mrs. Miller Jensen and Mrs. Senius
Jensen, residing near Clements; Rob-
ert Peterson of North Star township;
Mrs. Peter Thorston, Thief River Falls;
and P. o. Peterson of Lake Wilson.
Mr.. Peterson was one Of those citi-
zens, who, by his honesty, fair deal
ing and his readiness to render a
kindness to his neighbors, and friends,
made many loyal friends, who extend
sincere sympathy to the bereaved
widow and children.-Springfield Ad-

TO DANISH GAMBLING.

The Renville County Fair, held at
Bird Island will have no gambling de-
vices among it's amusement features
this year. At least the Young Peo-
pies Societies of twelve Protestant
Churches of the neighboring county
have petitioned the Fair Board to
eliminate all such devices and the
Board seems very much disposed to
comply with the expressed wish of
the younger citizenry of the County.
Suggestions have been made by the
Board as to one or two things which
the young people might do to help
give entertainment for the Bird Is
land Fair and it is possible that these
local numbers will be featured. In
the meantime other counties will
watch with great interest Renville's
attempt to rid her fair of these gamb-
ling devices which break beth moral
and state laws. -.
