Hundred New Blazes
Daily in North Area

Orders to all upstate game ward
ems to aid the Minnesota Forestry
department in an attempt to check a
serious outbreak of more than 200
fires spread over the northern Sec
ton of the state were issued today
by George w. Mccullough, state
game and fish commissioner, when
conditions took turn for the worse,
say Associated Press dispatches to
The Sentinel.
AS result, the force fighting fires
has been increased to 5000 men, 800
of them forest rangers, patrolmen,
towermen and game wardens, and the
remainder extra fire fighters employ
ed by the forestry department.
The situation was termend lex
tremely grave" by Deputy Forester
A. F. Opel, St. Paul, upon reports
of two large fires which had jumped
beyond control and spread to new
areas, and word of new fire which
already has ravaged large territory.
A fire near the Duluth municipal
airport, which has been burning over
secondary growth, broke away from
the fighters Wednesday spread over
40 acres before they were able to
check tn flames.
Tho fire now has covered appro-
ximately 700 acres, Mr.. Opel said,
and is being fought by nearly 400
men furnished by the state, city of
Duluth, and st. Louis county.
A fire which had burned over near
" 1000 acres of secondary growth
and peat lands in Aitkin, Crow Wing
and Cass counties, has jumped its
boundaries after being held under
control and is spreading over large
territory, according to latest reports
received by Mr.. Opel.
A new fire which has burned over
1000 acres of secondary growth and
peat land near Guthrie, south of Be-
midi, was reported to the forestry
department headquarters today. This
fire has temporarily been checked,
however.
Although the fire fighters are hold
ing all three serious outbreaks in
check, they are unable to extinguish
the flames because of the peat land,
the fire burning under ground, Dep
uty Opel said, and there is immin-
ent danger that fresh wind will
cause new outbreak.
Game wardens in the southern part
of the state cannot be spared at this
time, because of the coming hunting
season, Mr.. Mccullough said. but the
northern wardens were ordered to
drop all work and stand by to help
out the foresters.
The forestry department is con-
fronted with a serious situation, OPP
pei said, as the men can handle only
about 60 new fire day. The fires
are now being reported at an average
rate of from 80 to 100 blazes day.
at will depend on the wind" Opel
stated. eff we get any heavy wind,
the fires will go beyond control, and
there will be no possibility of check
ing them because of the extreme dry
conditions"
So far the fires have been confined
only to secondary growth and peat
land, and have not eaten into any
heavy timber, which is being guarded
with utmost caution.-Fairmont Sen

ROLAND JUHNKE LOSES CAR

Roland Juhnke, who lives eight and
a half miles south east of Lamberton,
missed his car after the show Sunday
evening, says the Lamberton News.
He had left it near the Farmers
store. Search and inquiry failed to
find any clue as to its whereabouts.
The car was located Monday on
little used road three miles from his
home. The radiator, ignition system
and all parts of any consequence were
taken from the car.
The car was a 1926 Ford coupe and
was in good condition. He locked the
car before going to the show and
took the key with him. The guilty
parties have not been apprehended.

Fears Apathy
In Texas Voting

SAN ANGELO. Tex, Nov 3.-CPJ
Only apathy Of Texas voters can
defeat the amendments tomorrow,
declared Rep. Penrose B. Metcalfe
here today after conducting a
statewide campaign in behalf of
the university land amendment.
Rep. Metcalfe urged voters to go
to the polls throughout Texas
Tuesday to give seventeen counties
a square deal on the %university's
1000, 800 acres Of taX-exempted
lands. He advances these reasons
for a vote: 1t vii not cost the uni
versity one cent. IL is SO phrased
that 1t protects the state from eX-
cess valuations in the counties in
question, it will cost the tax pay
ers less than two cents per thou
sand dollar valuation. 1t will re-
move discriminatory practice and
render justice to the counties who
have been giving more to and get
ting less from the university pro-
portionately than any other. and IL
has precedent in that penitentiary
lands and county owned school
lands pay taxes for county PR
poses.

Of elementary school maintenance-cost
of construction and operation, utiliza-
ton of facilities, specialized teaching
and balanced curriculum.
The platoon school, Miss Barrows ex-
planned, conducted on q plan that uti-

advance over the traditional school,
where both class rooms and teachers
are often idle.
Another principal feature of this type

The schools now being planned for

WOMAN ON Riot
Sir John Simon Also Declares
Report That Crew Was
Not Sober Is Untrue.
~ me Associated Press.

~ tnc ASSOC1aVeu EreSSs
LONDON, December 4.-Sir John
Simon, chairman of the board of in
tuiry which is investigating the crash
and destruction of the dirigible R-101
in northern France in october, denied
vodAy that there was a woman aboard
ut the time of the catastrophe or that
there were large quantities of intoxi-
eating liquors on the ship and that its
grew was not sober.
Sir John stated emphatically at to-
days session of the court of inquiry
that there was no woman on the e, craft :,si !;
adding that the woman mentioned had
now reached Rome on a flight she was
undertaking"
Referred to Miss SpOOner.
The reference apparently was to Miss
Winifred Spooner, British woman avia-
tor, whose plane had made forced
handing In the Tyrrhenian Sea during
the night. News of the untimely end
ing of her flight had not yet reached
the inquiry room.
Sir John, referring to reports current
after the disaster, which took 48 lives,
that there were large quantities OF nq-
uor aboard and that crew and passen-
gers were not sober, said this had been
carefully investigated and that there
was mot the slightest shadow OF
foundation for it."
DIR. Eckener TeStifies.
DR.. Hugo Eckener. master Of the
Graf Zeppelin and the worlds fore
most lighter than-air craft expert, to-
day told the board of inquiry what he
believed were the reasons for the R-10l
disaster.
DR.. Eckener then expounded at some
length this theory, which was that
leak in one of the airship's gas bags
caused her head to become heavy, the
weight probably accentuated by cur
rent of air from above on her nose.
He said that in his opinion the fire
which destroyed the craft was caused
by broken electrical wires.
