 STRONG PROTEST

 Doherty's telegram read:
 q was greatly astonished to read Tn tho papers that you propose 10 Issue nearly billion dollars of long term securities at this time. l think this is not only a grave mis- take but a. failure to take advan- Aage of a great opportunity to bet ter the present economic conditions. d do not see how you can justify long term securities at a compara- lively high interest rate when the treasury department in your ab- kence has already demonstrated that money can be had for gov ernment purposes at slightly more than half of one per cent per year.

 While Macdonald and his three party administration will ask for a ten per cent reduction of the dole" the Trades Union congress will register, it's, Utmost indigna- tion' regarding the proposal. It will ask an increase in workers unemployment contributions.
 Arthur Henderson, who took Macdonalds place as the labor leader, will be q fraternal delegate from the Labor party. The con- gress will stress the principle of work or adequate maintenance: will demand adequate pensions for workers aged 60; will demand a  40 hour week and payment on holidays.
 The congress will maintain that wages are not the interest of capi- tai. It will insist that the Trades Unionists share he administration of publicly controlled industry.
 The Iron and Steel trades con- federation will introduce a resolu- ton somewhat similar to the Soviet five year plan of industrialization demanding that the government nationalize the iron and steel in- dustries. The plan will envisage a national planning scheme. man. agcrial boards responsible for the operation of industry in their re- spective regions, and central supervising board with authority to regulate, restrict. or prohibit imports and fix prices in the home market.

matching dollar for dollar with their
employees in contributions to the Com
munity Chest will, in my opinion, be
one effective means of reaching the
goal so sorely needed in Washington
this year.
Of this kind. The Cleveland Chest, one
Of the outstanding successes of the past
year, blazed its way to the top by rea-
son of many such double-berrelled Of
ferings. In fact, a large number OF
companies pledged two dollars for every
one contributed by employees.
This Is a splendid example for Wash
1ngton to follow. The plea, or rather
the excuse, of business depression will
be heard on all sides for the failure to
give. Undoubtedly it will mean sac
riflce for both individuals and business
firms to help support the Chest, but
the old wartime slogan, Give till 1t
hurts" should be rssurrected.
Grave as Stress of War.
Even if it does hurt" we must re-
member that we are facing a situation
equally as grave as the stress Of war,
even though less spectacular on the
surface. The rs agencies which COM
prise WaShington's Chest wage an all
year round combat with poverty, ILL
ness and human misery in general.
It is futile for us to draw aside and
say this is no concern of ours. It Is
definitely our job to help alleviate this
distress, each according to his means
One frequently hears nowadays II can

that. But there are some things which
a city cannot afford to neglect. One is
the task Of caring for the needy within
its gates.
If we ignore the problems before us
now they will become cumulative. In

are occupied chiefly with the distress

In addition are those, who through no

fault of their own are finding it difn-
cult to stand alone. Unemployment
has thrown its ugly shadow over many
households which never before have
had to seek outside assistance.
1t is also of little avail to say that
washington is better of than moot

roll. Unfortunately, that economic Sc
curity does not include every resident,
and a hungry child in Washington is
just as hungry as If he were in New
York or Detroit.
Hence, it is up to all of us, what
ever our standing or whether our re-
lation to this city is permanent or
transient, to join as we did in war time
against common foe, none the less
dangerous because invisible.

An accident occurred last Thursday
morning near the Whispering Pine

west of Finlayson when a truck
loaded with a thousand pounds of feed
driven by Eldred Arth, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Ed Arth and a coach driven by
Carl Meidlinger, substitute mail car
rier, collided. The engine and front
of the truck were nearly demolished
and the left side of Mr.. Meidlinger's
car was badly damaged but neither
Eldred nor Glen Froreich who was
with him, were injured, although Mr..
Meidlinger was bruised and slightly
cut by glass from the broken wind
shield and his small eight year old
son, Earl, received severe cuts around
the right eye with cash under the
eye needing four stitches to close,
also deep puncture beneath the jaw
which required two stitches.
The wheels of Mr.. Meidlinger's car
were not much damaged and he was
able to drive it to Duluth Saturday

DEMING CHOSEN
FARM MANAGER
Sandstone Man to Look After Rural
Credits FOrecl0sed Farms in
Nine Counties.

e. NJ. Deming of Sandstone, has
been appointed farm manager of the
Minnesota Rural Credits Bureau for
this district which comprises approx
mately nine counties. The southern
boundary commences at a line east
and west of Hinckley in Pine county,
takes in parts of Kanabec and Mile
Laos counties, most of Aitkin and all
the counties north to the Canadian
border, including also st. Louis, Lake
and Cook counties in the northeast
corner of the state.
There are about 80 foreclosed farms
in this district, and more are being
added. M. E. Baker. travelling audi
tor of the bureau, was in Sandstone
from Monday until Wednesday, assist
ing in getting Mr.. Deming organized,
and they travelled over parts of the
district together. The plan is to have
an office established in Sandstone
where the records of all the farms
will be kept and from where some
of the supplies will also be shipped
out. This will be the first Rural
Credits farm office to be set up in the
state. Renting out all these farms,
or securing help to operate them and
keeping them in shape will be big
job, but Mr.. Deming with his years
of experience on the farm, in bust
ness and as collector for farm imple-
ment firms is well fitted for the posi-
ton.
The Rural Credits Bureau has ac-
quired about 1000 farms out over the
state through foreclosure on account
of excessive loans in some cases and
through mismanagement of the de-
partment. This will naturally spell
loss to the state but the new adj
ministration is determined to make
the best of it and get out with as small
loss as possible. Economy will be
practiced in purchasing for the farms
and in the general management of
them, and the department is very
careful in selecting their district
managers.
