Seeing red? Yes, and no cause tc
be alarmed, but rather the opposite
Jens Hyldahl is just keeping up with
the trend of the times in the estab.
lishment of loud" colors in the con.
duct of his Standard Oil business
This week Jens, with his famous
broad and good natured smile, drove
his Chevy six truck from the Service
Garage entrance after it had been
quietly and artistically dressed in &
coat of bright red paint with appro.
pirate trimming to match by himself
and John H. Sorensen. Now, his pa
irons will not only hear the roar OF
his six cylinder motor coming to de-
liver their fuel but they will see him
as we'll.
While Jens is wide awake and is
keeping pace with the progress of the
times, others of the Askov community
are also making improvements. AL
most every home in the village and
the community has undergone a var
iation of improvements as have many
of the business places. The new fill
ing station on the old hotel corner is
now receiving the finishing touches
and will soon afford motorists the
privilege of filling up" at its pumps
The streets of the village have been
improved and rebuilt, making an at
mosphere Of progress prevail.

TWO AUTOS CRASH
ON NO. 1; OCCUPANTS
HAVE LUCKY BREAK

Two automobiles crashed on the
pavement in Sandstone village late
Wednesday afternoon, with the result
that both cars were badly damaged,
but all three occupants escaped
miraculously with bruises and slight
cuts, though badly shaken up.
The Rev. John A. Hughes of Sand
stone, was alone in his Chevrolet
coach and had just driven onto the
pavement, opposite the George Halver-
son garage and filling station, when
his car was crashed into by an I'm
perial Eight Chrysler going north at
high speed. ]. P. Hart of Superior,
Wis, was at the wheel in the Chrys-
Ter and he was accompanied by Frank
Berg, also of Superior. The Chevro-
let car was thrown down the pavement
several feet, almost total wreck, and
the Chrysler then knocked down
pillar on the garage and wrecked
gasoline pump. Apparently the motor
on the Chrysler was not damaged but
the bumper, tenders and glass were
shattered. Mr.. Hart was bleeding
from the mouth, being cut by flying
glass. He and his companion con-
tinued on to Superior on the bus.

adjustment in America-the country
of wealth-is a reflection on the eco
nomic, social and political leadership.
President Hoover has been asked by
many groups to call an extra session
of Congress to do something construc-
tive to ameliorate this condition, as
it is feared that the coming winter
will find a great deal of privation,
misery, and hunger unless something
is done. The president has refused
to act whereupon U. S. Senator Robert
M. LaFollette of Wisconsin, young
man we'll known for putting up a
great fight for human. rights, made
the following statement in which
there is food for thought:
"The continuation of this do-noth-
ing policy condemns millions of our
fellow citizens to privation, want,
starvation even. and inevitably will
result in a lowered standard of living
and the degradation of citizenship"
The senator then submitted six
specific relief proposals: Federal aid
to assist cities and states in caring
for the unemployed; a great public
works program; farm pelief legisla-
ton, either through the equalization
fee or the export debenture plan; re-
duction of Unfortunately high tariff
duties; increases in income and in
heritance taxes; creation Of national
economic council to assist in the
Sterilization of industry and agricul-
ture.

st. Peter Herald: We heard a man
say the other day that it costs the
taxpayers lot of money to keep the
highway patrol force on the road.
Just to correct such an impression,
we would like to call attention to the
fact that the highway patrol is large
ly self-supporting if not entirely so.
Last year the fines they secured for
drunken driver convictions alone
amounted to $4,000, not to mention
the lesser amounts for less serious
offenders. No brother, the law VIC
lators are footing the bills for police
protection, and it is fitting that this
be so, for if it would not be for the
violators we would not need the ex-
pense of policemen.

guests come from far and near, folks
from as far as California and New

Dor, Mich. managed this year by
Grover Cleveland Alexander of
recent world series fame, will play
an exhibition game at Hinckley on
Thursday afternoon, June II, at
2:30 o'clock, against a picked nine

possible for an aggregation of this
kind. "Old Alex" will be with the
team and will no doubt give the
spectators added attraction as the
club itself is colorful bunch and
well worth the price of admission.
The Pepper Game" INDUCED in by

tics of the players will give the
spectators many a laugh.

SOME ONE NEEDED TO TAKE
BULL BY HORNS

The unemployment situation is a
most unfortunate one affecting not
only the workers but women and chill
dren who are the immediate depend
ents, agriculture, business, and in
general it affects all, especially those
for whom it is necessary to keep busy
and be doing something to provide
food and shelter. This situation is
largely responsible for the extremely
low prices of wheat, butter, eggs, po-
tatoes and other farm products as
the laboring classes who make up the
greatest bulk of consumers of these
products are unable to buy in the
same quantities as before. This NAL

SENATORS DECLINE
D. c. POLICE PROBE
Chairman of Subcommittee
Says Members Too Busy to
Act Under BIease Resolution.

The Police and Fire Subcommittee Of
the Senate District Committee will not
investigate Police Department problems
at this session OF Congress under the
Blease resolution, it was announced to-
day by Senator Carey, Republican, of
Wyoming, chairman of the subcommit-
tee. The resolution for an inquiry into
police affairs was brought forward at
the last session by Senator Blease of
South Carolina.
Senator Carey said it was felt that
Commissioner Crosby should be given
an opportunity to work out the de-
partment's problems. He also pointed
out that members of the Senate would
be too busy during the remainder Of
this session to devote time to a study
of the Police Department. The Sen
ator said that If, when Congress re-
turns for the next session, a senatorial
hearing on police matters is deemed
advisable 1t could be held at that time.
Before reaching this conclusion Sen
ator Carey conferred with Senator
Blease, author of the resolution, and
Senator Blease said he agreed fully
with Senator Carey on this course
Senator Carey said he had talked with
Gen. Crosby by telephone on the gen.
eral subject, but did not discuss any
particular cases.
