when a young man and a girl love

GUESS WORK AND PREPARATION

Many things, and difficult things,
car. be accomplished if the right kind
Of preparation is made before setting
out on the attempts. During the past
two weeks trans-oceanic flights have
brought disappointment and presum-
able destruction to their sponsors and
pilots because of lack of preparation.
BY preparation we mean the lack of
the proper training and equipment
for such venture. In one case it
was seen that very little navigating
experience was had and in neither
case was radio equipment attached
to the planes.
1t would seem that inasmuch as
numerous crossings have already been
made that any crossing like those at
tempted recently would be superflu-
Gus. No particular good could have
come from successful crossing for
the betterment of aviation and there
fore it seems that it was a needless
risk and waste of life and property.
The radio has proved a valuable
and indispensable apparatus in the
making of crossing of the ocean or
any long distance for that matter in
that it keeps the outside world in
touch with the project and if help is
needed, help can, in most cases, be
had. The Lindberghs have demon
strated that.
While it is certainly too sorrowful
to express, one cannot help but say
it is foolhardy and subject the spon-
sors of such flights to criticism be-
cause of their activities bringing a
setback to aviation rather than a
boon.

IMPROVE DISTRIBUTION

America with the ingenuity of its
people has developed a most remark
able system in the realms of produc-
ton, both agricultural and industrial.
To date no other country or world
power is on par with us in this
field Also as a nation and groups
of individuals has immense wealth
been amassed, world history presents
no equal. The problem presenting it
self before us today is one of develop
ing a new leadership whereby farmers
and neutrality-suspicious. of wealth
will be able to better participate in
the fruits of their own labor and in
dustry. 1t will be done in an orderly
fashion through education in the lines
of more intelligent social outlook and
through the ballot. Our seven mil
lions of unemployed today is a waste
and an indictment of present leader
shin.

toothless figure from India demon
strates the power of loyalty to an
ideal.
Just think of it,-one lonely little
figure. sworn to poverty, without the
backing of single gun or battleship,
and bringing to England spinning
wheel, a few garments of clothing,
and goats milk for food, is today
figuratively standing the British en-
pire on its head! World diplomats.
used to the terms of militarism and
to the cunning and deceit of interna-
tional diplomacy, stand in consterna-
ton as they seek to evolve a method
for meeting the man who comes with
out armies or pavies or the intrigue
and deception of world chancellories.
For years Gandhi has been teaching
the illiterate millions of India the
power of nOn-violence and passive re-
sistance. What can the British en-
pire do if the united millions of India
refuse to pay British taxes, refuse
to recognize British authority, and
refuse to buy British goods? India
can effect it's freedom through these
methods without shedding drop Of
blood, says Gandhi. 1t was dramatic
statement over the radio yesterday
when Gandhi said that he would rath-
er that India should remain in servi-
tude for ages than that one drop of
blood should be spilled to attain it's
freedom. Gandhi challenged the idea
that violence and war are inevitable.
He maintained that the laws which
govern the brute creation should not
be accepted as applying to the human
family.
Gandhi is undoubtedly the closest
approach to the life and ideals Of
Jesus Christ that we have had since
the lowly Nazarene walked on earth.
Is it part of destiny that this little
brown man. from the East shall bring
salvation to world that is threatened
by influences that are anti-Christ?
If through the discipline of passive
non-resistance Gandhi can make
sterile the guns and battleships of a
great empire, what lesson this
would be for the world! Would there
be wars IND the future if the able
bodied young men of the United States,
England, Germany, France, Russia,
and Japan would announce that they
would refuse to obey the orders Of the
old men who make war to bear arms
against their brothers in foreign
lands? Is it to be left for this little
leader from heather land" to show
world Christendom how the actual
application of the principles of Jesus
Christ can be used to prevent war in
the future?
What a great figure,-Gandhi What
a hope he holds out to the world!

BROOK PARK WOMAN
LAID TO REST THERE

The body of Mrs. Alice Bond Ellison.
who died Sept. 9, was laid to rest in
the Brook Park cemetery Friday fol-
lowing services conducted in the M.
E. church.
Alice Bond Ellison was born May
10, 1855 at Elmwood, ILL.,, and passed
away Sept. 9, 1881, at the age of rs
years, months and 20 days. She
was married to Marion Ellison Oct.
Is, 1881, to which union five children
were born. Eliza Whitis of IrOq OILS.
S. D.; Edith Baker of Canning, S. D.;
Herman, Bertha, and Crayton Ellison
at Brook Park.
The deceased with her husband re-
sided in Yotis City, Ill. about % years.
Then they moved to North Dakota,
where they lived five years. The
past sixteen years they have lived at
Brook Park, Mimi, where her husband
preceded her in death years ago.
She was a kind and loving mother
and was loved by all who knew her.

was held up. In the latter case. how
ever, the two youthful bandits, per-
haps their first attempt at this unsafe
method of gathering wealth, were
caught on a nearby farm only four
hours after the robbery. Much credit
is given a Braham man who was
sharp enough to get the license num-
Der of the car used by the youths.
The Braham Journal writes editorially
as follows:
"Braham got into the lime-light last
week at the expense of two foolish
youngsters. who gained nothing and
lost everything by their efforts. Hold
ing up the. First National Bank at
Braham may have looked easy but
theirs was far from a perfect crime
and in short order the two were cap
tured.
ITO Emmett Lance should go the
credit, for the easy capture of the
boys was due to the fact that he sup
piled the license number of their car.
With this information the authorities
made short work of picking up the
boys. 1t is therefore only just that
Emmett gets all due consideration for
his part. He is entitled without ques-
ton to the reward as offered in such
cases and has the entire community
to back him in his claims"

WAS 1T WISE!

You remember that federal income
tax rates were lowered one per cent
and those well able to pay the tax
and enjoying protection from the gov
eminent in proportion were given a
neat Christmas present of $3.50, O0O,-
coo in reduced taxes during December
of 1929. And this was after conduct
ing their business that year on the
basis of paying the customary tax.
As usual Andrew Mellon, secretary of
the treasury, was given credit for be-
ing a wise man by those of wealth
that profited by the reduction, or who
are lined up with the powers. But
see what happened since. Now it be-
comes necessary to float federal bonds
to the extent of over one billion dol
lars to take care of the deficit in the
national treasury-$8O0,0O 900 in long
term bonds and $500. 100000 in short
term certificates. Instead of lowering
federal income tax rates they should
go the other way. Andy should be
Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1931-09-17
HOW THEY LINE UP

Senator Reed of Pennsylvania; Sem
ator Smoot, the powerful and influ-
entail chairman of the appropriations
committee, and Andrew Mellon, Sec
rotary of the treasury, favor ma
tional sales tax to raise necessary
federal funds-mcre taxes on the con-
sumner, the masses of American peo-
pie.
On the other hand we have Sena-
tor Norris of Nebraska, outstanding
champion of human rights; Senator
Borah of Idaho, Senator La Toilette
of Wisconsin, and our own Senator
Shipstead advocating the raising Of
more federal funds through higher
income tax rates and more inherit
ance taxes. This will mean mere tax
to those we'll able to pay and who in
turn receive more protection from the
government due to their big incomes.
The more property person owns and
the higher his income the more pro-
lection he naturally gets from the
government.
We believe that the group repre-
scented by Senator Norris is right and
that more funds can be derived
through the medium of the federal
income tax and inheritance tax. and
that this will also be the best means
of decentralizing wealth-a point that
we have now reached and must face.

GANDHI

The eyes of the world are on the lit
tie leader of India, Mahatma Gandhi,
because he is giving his body and
soul to the coming of new day
peace on earth and good will toward
man. He wants to gain independence
for his people and country without
bloodshed. A most excellent editorial
on this subject has just appeared in
The Capital Times of Madison, Wis,
herewith reprinted:
We could not help contemplating,
as we listened to Mahatma Gandhi
over WIBA yesterday morning, how
magnificently this little, weakened,

United States, or more than all the
railway employees in the United States,
it looks to me like this principle has
been greatly Exaggerated.
The result of all this unequal re-
ward has tended to cut down consump-
ton and destroy buying power (The
phrase buying power should be
changed to paying power), we have
had too much buying power and not
enough paying power. But to sum it
all up when few have and get all
the money the rest course can't pay
due to the lack of our medium of ex-
change money. Amy remedy that does
course will be futile. and our med
ium of exchange will lie idle in banks
and vaults, and restitution among the
people become more pronounced.
l think it is human for those who
have long lived in ease and luxury to
think, to eventually believe that they
are superhuman, that they are really
superior beings and the better class
and have the best minds, that if they
cannot have their way everything will
go to ruin, that they alone are the
custodians of civilization, that up to
this time the rapid development of
the country is due to them, and in
general that all economic laws should
be for their benefit and in general
that they are Gods chosen people.
The whole idea of this super-conceit
was recently expressed by one of the
giants of industry who said, God
shows what he thinks of money by
those to whom he gives it," 1t is
hardly necessary to say that these
people, like the German Kaiser, have
a grand illusion and that if stripped
of their power and wealth they will
lose most of their greatness and i'm
portance. 1t has been my observation
after good many years, that when
one takes mans power away from
him his greatness fades in a direct
ratio. 1t is power and position that
people have in 80 per cent of the
cases that make them great and super
human, to overestimate the power of
those who control things is to admit
defeat to underestimate is to court
defeat.
The Republican party now dates its
beginning to Lincoln, during its span
of power it has developed two out
standing men, Lincoln and Roosevelt
between these two good men and the
present leaders there is no similarity
that l can see, on the other hand some
of our progressives are more similar
to these great men. Roosevelt, of
whom the Republican party is duly
proud was at his height a progressive,
more radical than our present day
progressives, the work he accom-
plished under great odds had lasting
effect. Certain leaders of the Re-
publican party today think they rep
resent the principles of Lincoln and
Roosevelt when they in reality do the
very opposite with all this in view a
regular Republican does not have to
feel any disloyalty to vote against the
regular Republican candidates especi-
ally when endorsed by the present
leaders. The ballot is the only weapon
we need to put an end to the present
farce.
