PRENATAL CLINIC
WORK is EXTENDED
Columbia Hospital Plans for 1880
May Include Full Time Social
Service Agent.

Extension of the work Of the pre-
natal clinic at Columbia Hospital was
included in plans for the 1880 program,
made at a meeting during the past
week, 1t was announced yesterday. 1t
was hoped to be abb eto obtain q full
time trained social service worker to
follow up the work of the clinic by Wis
iting the homes of patients with
greater frequency before and after
disqualification in instructing mothers
how to properly care for themselves
and babies.
Shortly after the World War Column
bia Hospital began to develop its pre-
natal clinic along larger lines in order
to provide more fully for the conserva-
ton of human lite.
In 1920 the out-patient department
was reorganized with the idea of de-
voting q large amount of time to both
prenatal and post-natal care. This
was accomplished with the co-opera-
ton Of the Instructive Visiting Nurse
Society and the support of the women's
board.
That this reorganization was effective
Is shown, according to the report of
hospital off1cialS, by the fact that the
daily number of prospective mothers
visiting the clinic has increased in 1929
100 per cent over the average in 1921.
Perhaps the most outstanding develop
ment, hospital authorities say, is the
return of approximately 40 per cent of
the mothers for post-natal care.
Becoming member of the Commu-
nifty Chest last year, the hospital has
been able to make certain structural
changes in the clinic rooms, which have
materially increased the facilities for
handling this class of work and plans
for the coming year contemplate a still
greater increase in the number of cases
to be handled, 1t was added.

BLOSSOM TIM"
DULUTH 0RPHEUM

One Of the outstanding musical
events of the season VIII occur when
the celebrated operetta Blossom
Time" which is based on the life and
music of Franz Schubert, the renowned
Viennese music master, Is presented
at the Orpheum Theatre, Duluth for
four days commencing Sunday eve
ming, December 9th, with a popular
priced matinee Wednesday.
The company that viii present
Blossom Time" is making one of the
most widely advertised tours in
theatrical history, covering period
of nearly two years, taking it into the
most important and leading cities of
this country and Canada, stretching
from Boston to Seattle.
A whole new production, more
elaborate and beautiful than ever used
in this memorable musical play, has
been designed and built for this ex-
tensive tour. and the company that
has been assembled to sing and act In
it, has been drawn from grand opera,
from music Conservatives and from
the Broadway dramatic stage. Hence,
it may rightly be termed q super
company, and one of the finest Of its
kind that has ever played here in any
similar musical play.

report. "Submarginal lands must be
distinguished from those worth Gull
tivating, and an effort made to find
ways Of guiding and assisting both
agricultural development and owner
ship for forest use along lines that
will best serve the public welfare.
The right answer will be attained
when there has been brought about
an adjustment of agriculture to for
estry, Of forestry to agriculture, and
of both to the soil resource as will
enable the land to contribute to the
most favorable economic and social
conditions of rural life"
Speaking further on the timber sit
uation, the annual report says: 1.-The
pressure to liquidate has resulted in
plant expansion and has created a
condition Of market instability and
chronic price depression often ap-
preaching decentralization. Any i'm
provement in the demand for lumber
is the signal for increased production.
The result is that the last great res
ervoir of virgin timber in the United
States is being depleted under con-
ditionS that involve deplorable wastes
of raw material and at a more ac-
CELEBRATED rate than Is in the best
public interest.
The industry is seeking efficiency
along the same lines as other indus
tries. As time goes on, more and
more OF the tree will be converted in
to industrial products. The cause of
the present waste of virgin timber is
not to be found in the attitude of the
lumbermen, who would gladly utilize
more closely if they could but In GER
tain economic djustments that
the lumber industry can not alter"
Erosion and its consequences in the
form of altered streamf1ow conditions
and silt discharges are imposing
larger public obligation for the reg
ulation OF forest use in a large part of
the East, and OF range use in the West,
according to the Chief Forester To
make regulation effective where the
protective function of the forest is i'm
portant, public ownership will have
to be greatly extended A combin-
alton of Federal and State effort will
probably be called for in the program
ultimately adopted.
Extensive research is fundamental to
any satisfactory progress, Major Stuart
says in his report. TT is needed as a
means of determining the basic econ
omic facts that must be understood
before sound public policies can be
elaborated or private policies of land
use safely embarked upon, and it is
needed in order to develop the best
technical practices of timber growing
and forest utilization. In the field of
research lies one of the greatest op-
portunities for Federal action. Both
the importance of the forest resource
and the public dangers that its des-
truction involves make increased eff
fort in this field not merely desirable
but almost imperative"
The annual report of the Forest
Service reviews in detail the years
progress in State cooperation in for
estry and forest protection, the re-
search activities of the Service, and
ne administration Of the National
Forests.

MANY CHRISTMAS TREE
LOADS ARE TOO WIDE

A warning against hauling loads of
Christmas trees larger than the limits
fixed by the Minnesota Traffic Act,
was issued by Earle Brown, head of
the State Highway patrol. MIR. Brown
has received several complaints that
too wide loads were endangering peo-
pie using the highways
The traffic act provides that NO
load shall exceed 96 inches in width.
If trees are loaded cross-wise on the
trucks, both butts and tips must be
kept within the total SO inch width.
If the load is more than 80 inches
wide, the law requires that two clear
ance lights or reflectors be carried on
the extreme left side of the load, a
white light or reflector in front and a
red or yellow light or reflector at the
rear. Both of these must be visible
500 feet away. These are in addition
to the regular head and tail lights re-
quired on all motor vehicles.
Whenever the load extends more
than four feet beyond the rear end of
the body Of the truck, a red flag must
be carried in the day time and a red
or yellow light or reflector at night.
Every trailer must carry tail light
similar to the tail light on the car.
If the trailer exceeds 80 inches in
width, it must also carry clearance
lights
The highway patrolmen viii arrest
drivers with loads exceeding the legal
limits, and will detain the trucks until
they are reloaded to comply with the
law

CONGRESS ALONE CAN
SPEED HIGHWAY WORK

The Minnesota Highway depart
ment will cooperate, as far as funds
permit, in President Hoover's work
and prosperity" movement, according
to Commissioner G. M Babcock.
There will be S11,O00,O00 available for
construction in 1890, he estimates, an
increase of $1,000. 900 over the 1929
construction budget, and contracts are
being let so that work can start as
soon as weather permits IN the spring.
If there is to be any further increase
in construction, it can come only
through increased federal aid
Trunk highway funds come en-
tirely from motor vehicle fees, fed
eral aid, and two thirds of the gas
oline tax" Mr. Babcock explains.
The increase in funds available for
construction in 1880 is mostly due to
the financing plan adopted by the last
legislature, which distributes payment
Of county reimbursement bonds more
evenly over a period of years. This,
together with the normal increase in
motor vehicle and gas taxes, has al
ready been taken into account in
planning our 1880 program, large
part Of which is already under con-
tract. There can be no further In
crease in state road taxes until the
legislature meets in 1881

2149 VOTES CAST
CITY ELECTION

While surface indications showed
not much interest in the annual city
election, the underground rumblings
indicated a spirited contest. The vote
cast showed this and 2,149 went to the
polls in the four precincts and cast
their ballots for their favorites.
The outstanding event Of the
election was the large vote polled by
W. p. Wolff for Alderman and Ted"
Toms for Municipal Judge. Closely
following these was the vote polled
by Steve Banovetz and Henning Olson
who were up for reelection and j. w.
Herranen who was before the people
for the first time. The reelection Of
Olson and Banovetz very clearly in
dicated that their past regime of the
Office was satisfactory to the majority.
The vote in the four precincts
showed up as follows:

Chisholm with the North Line road
which was paved this year. The new
road will be in the Seventh district.
The paving will cost abou. s27, 600
per mile, Engineer Shepard said Bids

several years has been $75,000. 900 per
year. The American Association Of
State Highway Officials at its recent
convention adopted resolutions fav-
oring an increase Of $125, 100000 per
year. Minnesota at present is re-
ceiving $2,112,000 per year. II the in
crease were made, our state would re-
ceive about $500 900 annually.
'Our plans call for about $50 miles
of new paving in 1890, compared to lib
miles in 1929. An increase Of 81, 400, 900
in federal aid would permit a further
increase of about Sc miles in paving
In the past we have not been able to
keep up with the traffic increase, but
If we could do 286 miles of paving a
year, we would be gaining on the traf-
fic demands.
Federal aid is the same as it was in
1920, while the state has generally in
creased its expenditures to meet traffic
demands. A $50,000,00 increase in
federal aid would only be keeping pace
with the increase in state road ex-
penditures. The heavy interstate
traffic on the main routes fully just
ifies larger federal participation.
There is some demand for federal aid
for local roads, but until the primary
highways are more nearly completed
federal aid should be confined to the
main routes. State and federal i'm
provement Of primary roads is quickly
reflected in the secondary roads any
way. This is demonstrated in Min
nesota, where four times as many miles
of secondary road have been surfaced
and improved in eight years, since the
state took over the main routes, as
were surfaced in the whole previous
history of the state"
The counties one third of the gas
tax will reach 100000 in 1880, it is
estimated, since the 8 cent tax will be
in effect the entire year. II the coun-
ties do not reduce their tax levies, this
viii mean an increase of $4,000, 900 in
funds available for Improvement of
secondary roads.
