The DAILY WORKER distributor
was told by one of the company hire
lings. "You can't distribute that stun
here. Get the hell away from here"
When this hireling saw that he
could not scare the distributor with
his display of authority" he then
argued. "These guys won't read it. All
they'll do is throw it away and clutter
up the yards with that damned paper.
You better cut out giving them away"
AS much as this hireling argued
that they would throw The DAILY
WORKER away, most Of the workers
would glance at the front page, see
the article on the yards" and care
fully fold the paper and tuck 1t away

DREMIER Zankov, the bloody butch
i er of Bulgaria, has resigned. Since
this murdered came into power sew
eral thousands of workers and peas
ants have been executed. He turned
the country into gigantic graveyard,
and'in his foul work he was openly
aided by every capitalist government
in the world, particularly England. If
Zankov does not sever relations with
his head before long, | know little

nICTATORSHIPS are becoming
~ fashionable on the shores of the
Mediterranean sea. The latest to hoist
the black flag OF fascism in Greece. A
few days before General Pangalos pro-
claimed himself dictator, 400 Com
munists were seized and deported. In
the recent elections in Greece the
Communists made heavy gains despite
the prosecutions. The capitalist press
is not throwing horrific catfits over
this reputation of democracy. If the
workers and peasants of Greece seiz-
ed power there would be a different
story.
THINGS must be going blue for Coo
L lldge when Washington reporters
sum up sufficient courage to tell the
world that the presidents popularity
is rapidly waning. They point out that
he has done nothing worth while since
he claimed credit for breaking the
Boston police strike. They say he is
as dumb and colorless as a pond. The
politicians who had up until now
struggled for positions of vantage on
his bandwagon are deserving him. 1t
is about time for the House of Nor
gan to look around for another tool.
BISHOP William T. Manning says
that science is not in conflict with
the church. The church fought science
as long as it could with every weapon
it could muster. Modern scientists
are lucky they did not live in the days
when the church had armies at its
command To doubt one of the church
fables exalted as dogmas was equiv
alent to inviting an experience with
the rack, thumb screw or the iron
maiden.
THE church is no longer in a posi-
! ton to burn people at the stake for
doubling its fallacies but it has yet
considerable power which is always
thrown in the scales on the side OF re-
action. Religion and science have
nothing in common. One is based on
superstition, ignorance and blind faith.
The other rests on knowledge.

ton of its exchange, Norway appar-
 ontly decided that conditions war ranted a higher valuation and the Bank of Norges accordingly revised its buying rate for the krone. The action was interpreted as a move to- ward the establishment of the gold standard at the pre-war basis of 26.S0 cents. The currency which 1 had been quoted around 20 cents early in the year shot up to within
 a cent of parity late in the Fall, and sympathetic advance took
 place in the other Scandinavian rates.
 The Chinese silver currencies were severely depressed by the sharp break in the price of this metal
 which followed the recommendation of the Royal Currency Commission that the Indian monetary system be transferred from a silver to a gold basis. Hongkong fell from it's Janu- ary high level above 5s cents to 46 in October. Shanghai from 75 cents
 to 57 and Picking from 79 to 59 Par , tial recoveries took place late in the

 rate in the year.

Bandits Robbing Store
 Wait on Customers Too

West Springield, Mass, Dec. 2S 0p) Two bandits who locked Isadore Waldman in a closet in the rear of his confectionery store last night and rifled the cash register, refused to become embarra ssed when a GUS toner walked in while they were searching the place for more loot. One immediately slipped on a white coat and walked out behind the counter and sold a package of cigar cites, taking the money and ringing it up on the register as if he had been doing just that thing all of his life.
 The bandits believed to be the same pair who have robbed two stores in Springfield during the past week. made their getaway in an au- tomobile. Waldman. attracted the. attention of police by putting his fist through the glass in the door of the closet in which he had been locked.

ASKOV DROPS GAME ...
TO BOTTINEAU TEAM

The Askov base ball team, winners
of the 1926 pennant in the Pine Coun-
ty League, were defeated in their
first game at the state amateur base
ball tournament held in st. Paul last
week, and hence played no more.
Askov was pitted against the fast
Bottineau team of Minneapolis, last
Thursday and lost by a score of 9
to 2. Spickler did the heaving for
the locals, while Won Schenk and
Clegg were on the receiving end.
While the local team did not get far
in the state tournament, it was, how
ever, good experience and the boys
enjoyed the outing. They realize that
wherever there is a contest. between
two teams, both cannot win, and they
hope to have the opportunity of enter
ing the contest again next year.
The Armours of st. Paul, won the
state championship, defeating Ely in
the final and deciding contest by
score of to O. The Armours were
also the state champions two years
ago.

Our Wdshn,l5to Letter
By " HDdley

Washington, September 22.-With
the President reestablished in the
White House Washington takes on
its normal aspects. The return of
the Chief Executive directly after the
smoke of primary battles has cleared
away brings troubles to, his door.
In addition to his multitude of duties
as head of the nation he is expected
to be an arbiter and peacemaker in
partisan squabbles. Coolidge renews
his official life in Washington, after
vacation period, without happy
prospects. Fortunately he is so con-
stituted as not to be greatly disturbed
over the problems of state and party
which confront him.
1t is not necessary to offer an
apology for Presidents, regardless of
of their party affiliations, to say that
they are generally held responsible
for the defeat of certain candidates
at the primaries and elections. There
are candidates for office who at
tempt to overcome their own short
comings by espousing certain fixed
policies of the Chief Executive, and
infer that their defeat be repudi-
alton of the nominal party leader.
This was true with Wilson as it is
with Coolidge. Politics makes strange
bed fellows.
One of the big subjects under dis
cussion in Washington today is the
possibility of coalitions in Congress.
These alliances are expected as an out
growth of the bitterness developed in
the primaries. 1t is said that the
Democrats are already making over
lures to the discontents among the
Republican party, which is per-
fectly natural political procedure, in
order to capitalize on party feuds.
1t is rather amusing to note that
the leaders of two major parties are
Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1926-09-23

not at all in agreement with their
associates as to main issues.
Attempts to make political capital
of the debt settlement problem failed
because there is no marked disagree
ment on the general subject between
the two parties. The subject of for
eign governments paying their debts
to this country has reached a point
where former Senator Robert L. Owen
of Oklahoma, has suggested a con-
gressiona investigation into the sour
ces of propaganda. This debt ques-
ton is rapidly overshadowing the
World Court as topic of discussion
in Washington.
Although the present congress does
not meet for two or three months,
there is some talk concerning a spe-
cial session of the 10th Congress in
the spring. Whether the senators or
congressman will be taken up with
this parliamentary jockeying for an
extra session of Congress depends
almost wholly upon the outcome of
the elections. 1t is said a call for
an extra session will be contingent
upon the Republicans losing control
of one or both Houses.
Under the present rule a small
group of senators could prevent the
passage of important appropriation
bills before the close of the session.
March 4. This action would force
the calling of the special session Of
the New Congress and have an i'm
portant bearing upon the Presidential
elections. Though eVice-president
Dawes continues his warfare against
the present Senate rules the opinion
prevails that he is merely fitting at
windmills". The Vice-president wants
the Senate rules, amended in order
to prevent filibusters against i'm
portant legislation.

ARE YOU USING ROOT
- TOPS IN ENSILAGE?

A reader of the Askov American,
near Hinckley, writes as follows:
1--WE have heard here that the Danish
farmers around Askov make silage
from rutabaga tops. For the benefit
of those who would like to know,
please tell us if it is a success and
just how it is done.''
The American has made some in
quiries but has not discovered any
farmers who are using rutabaga tops
in silage to any extent. 1t would
seem that rutabaga tops are too
heavy to send through the blower
together with corn, after being cut in
the silage cutter. If the rutabaga
tops are being used extensively by
any farmer, the American would be
pleased to get the information and
pass it on.

AUTO ACCIDENT rs
FATAL TO ONE MAN
John Stafford Of Bruno, Killed
Near Willow River, Last Thurs
day. Several Occupants are
Injured.

A fatal accident occurred on high
way No. 1, Thursday evening, the 18th,
when Velie car driven by John
Stafford, we'll known merchant of
Bruno, collided with a Ford sedan
driven by VIM. Weekly, barber of
Willow River. Mr.. Stafford's skull
was so badly crushed by the impact
from the frame of the wind shield,
that he died shortly after arrival at
the hospital in Sandstone, where he
was taken Immediately after the ac-
cident. The other occupants of the
two cars received but comparative
minor injuries. Mrs. Stafford, who
was riding with her husband, re-
ceived painful cut on the forehead,
while Mrs. Sid Lamb, who was riding
in the Weekly car, had to have six
stitches taken in her head. The
other occupants of the Weekly car
were more or less bruised and cut.
About seven-thirty Thursday eve
ming Mr.. Weekly, accompanied by his
wife, his niece, Mrs. Sid Lamb, and
her husband of Cumberland, Wis,
were driving in their sedan along
highway No. 1 about two miles north
of Willow River on their way to Moose
Lake. Mr. Weekly's car was well
over on the right hand side of the
road, according to Mr.. Weekly when
suddenly the left rear axle of car
coming from the opposite direction
driven by E. J. Rodenberger, far
mer of Bruno, hit the front left wheel
of the Weekly car throwing the front
end partially across the road. Mr..
and Mrs. Stafford were coming closely
behind in their Velie and unayoid-
ably struck the front wheels of the
Weekly car with such force as to
tear them and the axle off, smashing
in the wind shield and frame of the
Velie, damaging the left wheel and
running board and otherwise injuring
the car The motor bus running be-
tween Duluth and st. Paul was right
behind the other two cars and i'm
mediately the injured were trans
ferred to the bus and brought to
Sandstone for medical care by Doc
tors Boiling, Dredge, and Ehmke.
