SAN PEDRO, Cal, Sept. IT. U,R)
The coast guard cutter 260 left
here today to search off Redondo
beach for three men who failed to
return there last night after last
having been seen battling with a
swordfish.
Reports to coast guard headquar-
ters were that the men, in a 20-foot
motorboat, were observed at twilight
struggling to land the fish eight
miles off the coast line.
The missing men are II. S. With
ington, %, Lomita and Walden, 80,

Berlucci, third officer, who was on

A tropical hurricane which swept
the west coast of Mexico "a hours
before the crash came late Satur-
day night, was generally blamed
for the grounding of the vessel by
members OF the crew and passen-
gers. The wind at times blew more
than 100 miles an hour, passengers
said on their arrival here.

sympathetic and gives anyone the ad-
vantage of the doubt but once mans
record is established and that is found
to be in the interests of the privileged
class and very reactionary he is crit
ical and does not mince words. He
thinks before he leaps and is thor
oughly grounded in progressive prin-
ciples. While he is always eager to
have good and tried men in govern
mental positions he places principles
above the man, realizing that the man
may be here today and gone tomorrow
and that humans err while the prin-
ciples live on.
His Opinions are Sought.
Having been interested in social
and economic questions since youth
and having devoted most of his time
to it, men and women, not only in
his own party but in other political
parties are glad to have his opinions.
Hundreds and thousands of people
have profited by reading Mr.. Teigan's
articles and through association with
him, and those who do not agree with
him politically nevertheless respect
his opinions. While an excellent writ
Ter and also a good speaker he has
never been much to the front, pre-
ferring to remain more in the back
ground and fight for principles, but no
little credit is due this man for he
kept up the battle for the progress
sive principles during the war and
the years following when few men of
progressive principles were being
elected in this state and when the
funds at hand to work with were very
meager. 1t is with no little personal
sacrifice that he has continued this
work and naturally it was a source of
considerable satisfaction and pleasure
to him when Minnesota elected its first
FarmerLabor governor and lieutenant
governor last fall, but he is striving
onward in the march for more repre-
sentative government.
The publishers of the Askov Amer
lean find that Mr.. Teigan's current
letters to the press which deal with
government, social and economic ques-
tions are widely read and appreci-
ated and it is a privilege for this
newspaper as well as other news
papers out over the state to receive
this weekly service.
Not only is Mr.. Teigan familiar with
the public record of every man in a
legislative position in Minnesota, but
he is also very well versed in national
politics and the social and economic
problems of the world. AS such he
reads and thinks much and is a busy
man, and yet he is a very plain citi-
zen, glad to meet folks in all walks
of life and get their viewpoints. The

D. S. u. ASKS HELP
TO BUY MISSION CAR

Two years ago when the Third Dis
trict of ID. S. u" to which Askov be-
longs, had it's convention at Ringsted,
Iowa, it was decided that these So
cieties all over the United States
should raise money enough to pay for
the two missionaries, Dagmar Miller
and Erling 0stergaard, who both work
in the same Missions which the Askov
church is sponsoring, the Santal Mis-
sions in India. Erling 0stergaard is
doctor in the Mission fields, and has
to travel practically all the time, he
is head of hospital and once a
week goes to the market where one
of the group gives talk on gospel
stories and then the doctor and his
helpers proceed with the clinic, they
treat so to go patients on these days.
The Doctor has had an old Overland
car at his disposal, but lately the car
has baked and is ready for the Junk
heap"
The Rev. V. S. Jensen, who is presi-
dent of the United Danish Young Peo-
pies societies, { D. S. w. has come
to the conclusion that it is the duty
of the Young Peoples societies to give
sufficient money to buy a new or
good used car for DR.. 0stergaard. He
has asked each society to give from
$40 to $25. Such collection was
started at the last Askov Young Peo-
pies meeting Sunday evening and the
drive will be continued for two weeks,
ending at the next meeting in the
church basement September 20. The
Society here does not have sufficient
money to give outright from the
treasury, and as each individual men,
Der can not pay much it is being
asked that all those that can, give
little. Any amount from a penny
and up will help. Hans Mosb@k has
the list and will take your contribu-
tions and send them on.

NORTHWESTERN OIL
COMPANY HAS BLAZE

Excitement ran high in the Quarry
City early Wednesday morning at
about 1870 a. m. when the sounding
of the fire siren called fighters to a
fire which had broken out in the store
room and garage belonging to Werner
Nelson of the Northwestern Oil Co.
located south of the Peterson & Sand
wick store. The blaze was evidently
caused by the firing of some waste
material. Soon after the alarm was
sent in by Fritz Lundquist the fire
was under control with little damage
except to the car, being done.

burdens away from general property.
If the special taxes in Minnesota such
as gross earnings of the railroads and
and royalty, do not bring in enough
revenue-for they pay on amount of
business done and profits shown--then
the millage rates on general property
taxes are raised or the assessed value
raised, thus adding to the tax bur-
dens of real estate and personal
property, said Mr.. Olson. That has
been an easy method of raising more
tax money but general property has
suffered right along and it is time
that the burden was placed some
where else.
Education is State, National.
The thing to do is to make it pos
sible for people to live on farms
again, said the speaker. Cities and
villages now claim 1870 of the peo-
pie while only $50 live on farms.
School expenses, which generally
speaking, represent 500 of the total
tax, should be paid for out of federal
and state money, education being
state and national problem. The
money could be gathered largely
through the federal income tax and
allocated back to the various states.
Road taxes should also be taken off
general property so that there would
be little or no tax on the farm ex-
he
pered to that degree. Road taxes have
been shifted a great deal from general
property through license and gasoline
taxes and are going in the right di-
rection. 1t must be remembered that
the taxing power is the first lien on
the farm or home and the loan is
secondary, said the speaker.
Mr.. Olson contended that people
can be taken care of better on the
farm than in congested centers, ad-
ding that folks can not even get wa
ter enough in some cities. The pres
sure in the cities would be relieved
if more people moved into the country.
Legislation is passed and business
invited into the several states, and it
would be well if more of this atten-
was directed to agriculture, said the
speaker.
Wisconsin Likes Income Tax.
Opponents of state income tax call
it just another tax, said Mr.. Olson.
1t may be another tax to those who do
not pay any now or do not pay enough,
but there need not be any more tax
spending because of a state income
tax, and the purpose of it is to re-
duce general property taxes, a good
example of which can be seen in our
neighboring state of Wisconsin where
they collected about twenty millions
of dollars through the state income
tax last year. Opponents of this mode
of taxation have tried to make out
that industries have been driven from
