The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1932-07-29

Here is an idea. If a bunch
of taxpayers feel that there are
irregularities of a criminal
nature in the conduct of any
official, the examination should
be made by a public examiner.
If the irregularities do not
exist, the cost of the same
should be borne by those sign
ing the petition and a surety
bond covering the expenses
should be posted before the
examination is begun by the
petitioners. If on the con-
trary, glaring irregularities are
found, the county and official
affected should pay the bill.
This would be the fair way to
do things. Think it over.

INCREASED OUTPUT
OF COTTON IS SEEN
Production Per Acre Can Be
Doubled, Chemical Firm
Head Says.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, July 26-Science can
double cotton production per acre, Hor-
ace Bowker, president Of the American
Agricultural Chemical Company. esti-
mates. One man worked so hours with
scythe and fail several decades ago to
harvest and thresh an acre Of wheat;
today that same acreage needs only
half an hour with the modern combine,
according to calculations by the Ma
tional Industrial Conference Board.
Thus, while industry has been en-
ploying technology to increase produc-
tion and lower costs. agriculture has
by no means stood still. Even without
using the most advanced methods says
Bowker. writing in the Executives
Service Bulletin of the Metropolitan
Life Insurance Co., cotton was pro-
duced at IL cents pound in 1881. COM
pared with an average cost OF Is cents
for the preceding two years. Thi7 r.
cent cost was probably the lowest IN
a generation.
Cost ga Cents in Tests.
Nevertheless, on 1872 one-acre test
plots distributed throughout the cotton
belt, which were adequately fertilized,
Mr.. Bowker found that costs averaged
ga cents per pound of lint
"In other words" Bowker says, "our
field tests showed that the national
average production cost of IL cents a
pound was just about double what 1t
should be-"
> Bowker believes half as much land
should be used for cotton and that
land rade to produce fully at low
cost: the other land should be en-
ployed for other crops. with resultant
augmentation of the farmers income.
Bowker predicts that "a farm market
with twice present normal purchasing
power is bv no means an idle dream" ;"
In its study Of farm mechaniZation,
the conference board warned that de-
spite the potential efficiency seemingly
available with the use of machines.
manv conditions prevail to make its
USE difficult.
Farms are generally small-scale en-
terprises. There are over 5000. 900
farms. compared to less than 300, 900
manufacturing enterprises. The board
machine means the smallest acreages
will be welded into larger farm enter
prises.
Other Machinery Aids.
Not only has machinery greatly in
creased efficiency In handling the CROP
but it has aided the farmer In other
ways. In 1880 So per cent of the
farms In the Nation had automobiles;
1874 per cent had motor trucks; 1875
per cent had trucks.
At the same time, total number Of
horses and mules on farms fell from
Evening star., 1932-07-26

the high point Of about 27000. 900 In
1918 to about 10000, 900 in 1890.
There also has been considerable use
of electricity In farming where farms
are accessible to central power stations;
and more than Is per cent OF the
farms are equipped with stationary gas
engines for local production of power.
The board notes that despite in
creased mechanization, the primitive
farming methods of the past genera
ton still persist in outlying and poorer
farming districts. They will probably
not entirely disappear so long as farms
in any considerable number are run on
subsistence rather than a CONNER
cial basis"

Every important event of III winter Olympic games to be held for the first time in the United States lat Lake Placid, N. Y. from February 1 through February Is, will be reported through NEG mi crophones.
 From the official ceremony for- mally opening the games, which will take place in the Olympic Sta dium, until the closing ceremonies on Saturday afternoon, February 13, NEG announcers, engineers and field equipment will be present.
 George Hicks Edward Thorger- sen and Ben Grauer are the an- nouncers assigned to the Olympic games.
 Perhaps the most impressive scene will be the opening ceremon- ies, which begin at 10:00 a. m. E. S. T., Thursday, February 4, in the Olympic Stadium. At this time all the athletes participating will stand in the center of the stadium and take the oath promising to contend with sincerity and fairness in the games.
 This ceremony, said to be tra- ditional since the earliest of the Olympic games. will be heard over an NBC-WJZ network.
 A complete resume of each days events will be given every after noon except Sunday, February 7, from 4:45 to 500 D. m., F.. T. S., over an NBC-WEAF network. On that day 30-mile dog sled races will start from the stadium at 2:15 D m. Clem Mccarthy, NBCs racing authority, will picture them.
 On Monday, Februpary 8, the scene will shift from Lake Placid proper, to nine miles from the town. where the III Olympic win- ter games committee has construct ed with the aid of the town and New York state, the only official and regulation Olympic bob-run on the North American continent. It was hewn out of Mt Van Hoeven- berg and extends for one and d half miles down the mountain side.
 The bob-run was designed by Stanislaus Zenttbytski of Berlin, engineer of the famous Schreiber- hau run in Germany and other well known European slides. The run was started August 4. 1850, and represents an investment of $200,000. It Is approximately d mile and a half long and main- tains a drop of about ten degrees with minimum grade of eight and half degrees and a maximum of fifteen degrees.
 Heats one and two of the two- man bob sled races will be report ed by Hicks and Thorgersen over an NBC-WEAF network from 9:15 to 3:45 a. m., and over an NEG WIZ network from 9:45 to 10:30 a. m.
 The races will be described by Thorgersen at the start. Hicks at the finish, and through seven re- porting stations established by the Olympic committee at the most dangerous curves along the run. This will be accomplished by an intricate system of headphones connecting the announcers at the ton and bottom of the course as well as the seven reporting sta tions.

INDIAN LEADERS
|. Arrested; ONE
DIES IN REVOLT
Response to HartaIS Mild,
Compared With Zeal
Last Year.
By United Press

By United Press
BOMBAY, Jan. 6.-The govern
ment's campaign against Indian
Nationalists centered today in
Bombay, where millions Of Indians
often have demonstrated their de-
votion to Mahatma Gandhi, their
jailed leader.
Congress organizations were de-
clared illegal and a roundup of con-
gress leaders began without Incl
dent. The government obviously
did not wish to fiji the jails, and
response to hartals of the National
lists, involving prayer and cessation
of business, was only lukewarm
compared with the zeal displayed
year ago when Gandhi was ar
rested for defying the British salt
monopoly.
A strong undercurrent of resent
ment against the government
measures was unmistakable, how
ever. The comparative failure of
the hartals was due largely to
abstention of Moslems.
In their systematic roundup of
congress leaders, armed police using
motor lorries, entered congress
headquarters, arrested leaders, and
ran up the Union Jack to replace
the congress flag.
About 100 leaders were jailed, in
cluding eight women. Among the
prominent persons detained were
the president of the Bombay pro-
vincial congress committee and
ward committees throughout the
city, ex-president of the congress
assembly, Vitalbhai Patel, President
Mariman of the Bombay congress,
and Jamnadas Dwarkadas, leading
theosophist and friend of Mrs. Annie
Besant.
Police took possession Of the head
quarters of the congress volunteers.
The Punjab provincial congress
committee and the city congress
committees of Lahore and Amristar
were outlawed.
Minor disturbances occurred out
side Bombay, but the roundup of
leaders was generally peaceful.
One man was killed in riot at
BenareS, where police fired into
crowd. The crowd was defiant and
stoned the police.

CREDIT POOL is
AID TO FIFTEEN
INDIANA BANKS
$693,500 Has Been Loaned
Institutions in State;
None Refused.

Fifteen Indiana banks have
availed themselves of the borrow
ing facilities offered since Oct. II
through the Indiana district or
ganization of the National Credit
Corporation to the extent of $685.
500 it was revealed today.
Harold S. Cross, chief examiner
Of the indianapolis Clearing House
Association and secretary of the
district credit corporation, declared
that no request for a loan has been
turned down, although in several
instances additional and better COL
lateral has been required.
The Indiana district was formed
in conjunction with the National
Credit Corporation, set afoot by
President Hoover to enable banks
to realize cash upon good but frozen
assets.
Discrimination Refuted
Total amount of loans was kept
secret until the meeting of the loan
committee Tuesday when it was
decided that dissemination of the
information would be advisable.
Statements made that some banks
had been Disseminated against
when they requested loans were re-
futed by Cross, who said that no
petition had been turned down.
Cross said that seventy-six Indi-
ana banks have joined the Ma
tional Credit Corporation and have
pledged $3,542, ,679.83, which repre-
sents approximately 10 per cent OF
the capital and surplus of the in
stitutionS.
Funds Readily Obtained
Regulations of the corporation
require that the subscriber banks
pledge either 10 per cent of their
capital and surplus or per cent
of deposits, whichever may be the
lesser.
These subscriptions are subject to
call and in return the banks re-
ceive gold notes to pay per cent
when and if earned"
There has been no heSitancy on
the part of the national and state
banks and trust companies to be-
come subscribers, Cross said. Pri-
vate banks are barred from men,
bership.
Call on Pledges Imminent
The corporation was founded at
the instance of President Hoover
to permit banks holding good COL
lateral, but which could be sold
only at great loss at present, to
make loans upon this security.
The secretary declared that
mortgage loan collateral is rated
at half its face value for the loan
purposes.
A call for payment on subscrip-
tions is expected to be made soon,
Cross said.
Members of the loan committee
are Frank D. Stalnaker, president
of the Indiana National bank; John
P. Frenzel Jr., president of the
Merchants National bank; Elmer
Stout, president of the Fletcher
American National bank; Evans
Woollen president of the Fletcher
American Trust Company, and Ar
