BLAMING UNCLE. SAM

One certain outcome of the London Naval
Conference is that if it should be wholly or
partially failure, the cry will be raised in
the United States by the numerous element
which has the motto my country, always
wrong" that Uncle Sam is to blame.
Whatever this government does or
doesn't do it can always be figured out
by these American outlanders that we have
had new proof that America is roaring lion
in the midst of bleatting lambs, the "lambs"
being nations which have kept the European
continent a cockpit for centuries.
Naval reduction at London depends
chiefly upon the willingness of France to
maintain her present naval strength in pro-
portion to that of England. France has de-
manded as the price of such an agreement
that the United States sign pact guaran-
teeing French security" This involves the
possibility that the United States might be
drawn into another European war. Of course
our internationalists, professedly interested
in peace, would be glad to involve America
in such war-breeding scheme, but our gov
eminent knows that this nation has fought
the last war with the origin and purposes of
which it has nothing to do. Hence the Unit
ed States cannot sign such pact.
England and the United States long ago
agreed on parity, and there would have been
no necessity for either the Geneva or London
conferences if the spirit of that agreement
had not been violated by heavy British
building of cruisers which has destroyed that
parity. Great Britain did not build against

HOLMBERG is THE MAN TO TAKE
OLSON'S MEASURE

The filing of Floyd Olson, county attorney
of Hennepin county as the Farmer-Labor cam
didate for governor has been widely discussed
by the newspapers of Minnesota.
There isn't any question but Mr.. Olson
is the strongest man that his party could
nominate. He has made very good county
attorney but this experience does not neces-
sarily indicate he is qualified for chief eXecu-
tive of this great State.
He was the Farmer-Labor candidate for
governor in 1925 when the party was at the
peak of it's strength in this State. In this
election he received 366,O29 votes against
406,692 received by Theodore Christensen,
Republican candidate. Mr.. Christiansons
plurality was 1868.
A summary of the vote cast in Henne-
pin, Ramsey, st. Louis, Stearns and Winona
counties in this election will be interesting.
The vote in these counties follows:
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1930-04-10

1t will be seen by the above that Gov
Christensen carried the five counties by &c.,
435; BOOTS of this plurality was given the
Governor in Mr.. Olson's home county, Henne-
pin.
The platform promulgated by the Farm
er-Labor party at their recent convention is
much more conservative than any of it's pre-
decessors. Mr.. Olson is given credit for die
tating every word of the platform 1t has
its vote appeal.
N. J. Holmberg, Dairy and Food Com
missioner of Minnesota, dirt farmer from
Renville county, is one of the Republican
candidates for the nomination. Prior to be-
coming Dairy and Food Commissioner he
served his district with distinction in both
the House and Senate Of the Minnesota legis-
lature. incidentally he is of the same nation
atty as Mr.. Olson-SWedish. In the past
half dozen years Mr. Holmberg has addressed
at least once practically every cooperative
farmers Creamery association in Minnesota.
His name is a household word with the dairy
men of the State.
Mr. Holmberg's experience in state mat
tiers makes him much better qualified man
for the position of Governor than is Mr.. o.
son. AS successful dairy farmer he is in
decidedly better position to get the viewpoint
of the agriculturist than is a man who has
been sitting in a swivel chair for many years.
If the Republicans of Minnesota desire
to make the election of Republican governor
certain in the 1880 general election they will
nominate the dirt farmer, Nathaniel j. Holm
berg, of Renville county.

Everyday Psychology
Memory Aids.
By DIR. JESSE W. sPRowLs.


We are all born with q certain brute
strength to remember things. No one
knows just what his strength Is. Indi-
viduals differ enormously.
But as we live our lives we ind 1t
convenient, not to say necessary, to rely
upon our ability to recall. Often
enough this ability fails Us just when
we most need 1t.
The failure to recall has raised the
question whether or not a person may
improve his memory. If you 60 to
those psychologists who have studied
the question you will find the usual dis
agreements that are associated with all
weighty questions. On the whole, the
psychologists say mo"
In spite of this opinion of the experts,
most any one will tell you of instances
to the contrary. The average man re.
fuses to believe that he cannot inn
prove his ability to recall.
The argument should proceed along
this line: A man does not improve his
memory. He merely figures out ways Of
holding certain things in mind. These
are memory aids, not memory improve.

For instance, how would we get along
without this one, Thirty days hath

Perhaps you have felt the necessity
Of trying to recall the details of some
past experience. On every item that
you feel sure about you can state q rea-
son In terms Of some connection. These
connections, which are called assocta-
tons, are your memory aids.
Now II you know in advance that you
will need some time to recall the de-
tails Of something, you win then and
there establish the proper connections.
You haven't improved your memory.
You have only hooked up the facts
you want to keep In mind.

While in Washington the prince iden-
