America loves it's Lindbergh-loves him not

By the one cent increase to the gas tax, ad-
vocated by Governor Christensen, it would be
possible to add one hundred miles of paved roads
to Minnesota's present highway system each
year. That seems like a good health progress
much more wholesome than loading the state
down with another bond issue. None of us is
going to go bankrupt over that additional one
cent but increased taxes to pay for heavy bonds
are something not so easily disposed of.

any president If such bill were passed it
wouldn't apply to President Coolidge who has
been elected only once, acquiring his office the

It's a weak argument; just about as futile and
foolish as the statement that Hoover had not liv-

The above pertinent comment was suggest

U. S. senate by Senator Helm of Alabama in

One of the big needs on the University
Campus today is a home for the girls who are
taking the nurses training course. This group
of students is one of the most deserving on the
campus and little is being done for them. Uni
versity funds will not permit the Regents to
build such structure, and there is apparently
little interest from former students and gradu-
ates to see that it is erected. Minnesota has the
Oldest and the largest school of this kind in the
world, and visitors from outside dumb with
wonder that no provision has been made for suit
able living quarters for its girl students. If the
