LEE GETS CALL
TO WASHINGTON
Leader in Minnesota Plan Effort
Asked to Help in Preparation
for Special Session.

Rudolph Lee, publisher of the Long
Prairie Leader, who has been acting
as chairman of the group of rural
editors in the Northwest sponsoring
the Minnesota Plan got long dis
tance telephone call from Washington
on April l urging him to come down
to help with the hearings prepara-
tory to the special session of Con-
gress to be called on April Is.
Mr. Lee decided to go and left for
Washington Monday afternoon, where
he will do what is possible to call
the attention of congressional leaders
and the administration to the II
points in the Minnesota Plan.
With it definitely determined that
President Hoover will do more than
state general principles for the spe-
cial session and with the formulation
of farm legislation thus put up to
Congress and public opinion, the Min
nesota Plan is likely to play an i'm
portant part in the legislation to be
proposed.

Compression Tests of Cement Blocks for
Christian Church Reveal Great Strength

That the Church of Christ will be
able to use cement blocks from the
destroyed structure in rebuilding was
assured when the test report of sew
eral blocks was received by the
Church authorities.
Five blocks were sent in to the Uni
versity of Minnesota for pressure test
and revealed many times the strength
required for building purposes.
The test procedure conformed to
the standard specifications for Con-
crete Block and Concrete Building
Tile of the American Concrete Insti-
tute, except that the blocks were not
dried to constant weight before test
ing. Moisture in the blocks causes a
decrease in strength so that the error,
if any, resulting from not drying is
on the side of safety.
The compression test data showed
that three of the five blocks, approx
mately 145 square inches in area,
withstood pressure of 100000
pounds, the maximum load of the COM
preston machine. These three blocks
were taken from the building walls,
both from the cooler side and from
the hottest side, caused from fire. One
block was sawed through and the
halls tested separately. The half block
