CONTESTS PREVIOUS OPINION
Editor Askov American:

| notice by last weeks issue of the
American that champion of the
Game and Fish department has spo-
ken at last.
1t seems rather inconsistent to me
for a man who claims to be an ideal
American to admit ignorance of our
constitution and then to go further
and say he doesn't care, is worse. Let
the farmers pass a law that any
Sportsmen caught in these parts be

The idea that prevailed when the

Oh the border get a double dose of
both.
This new scheme is for a shooting
ground which is far worse than re-

to build a home for his family and
build up community and pay taxes
ever speaks disparagingly of those
small rutabaga patches and extra

Most of us are aware that a GER

generation to this kind of liberty.
One of my neighbors was offered
twenty five-dollars and immunity from
arrest for a certain violation if he
would tell where he could find ven
ison on our place. Do you call this
bribery or sporting chivalry.
Now regarding no two farmers
agreeing on a matter l would sug-
gest lesson from American history.
A man in British parliament made the
remark that one regiment OF British
regulars could march from New Eng
land to North Carolina but when a
regiment of these regulars decided to
go to Lexington and capture Samuel
Adams and John Hancock then to
Concord and take some powder they
made the return march of twenty
miles in three hours with neither
prisoners or powder. They did leave
plenty of specimens along the road
however so the American farmers
could get a close look at uniformed
corpse.
1t surprises me that such a law
abiding citizen could get on the in
side Of this fancy market for venison.
I've never been that lucky
The permit system of taxation
would be welcomed with delight by
all land holders, resident or non-resi-
dent alike except game and fish pen
sioners. Few of them pay taxes any
way.

THE MELLON TAX PROPOSAL
Duluth Publicity


In the proposals of Secretary Mel
Ion for balancing the budget, he urges,
among other things sane increases
in the brackets of the income tax and
of the federal estate tax. He objects
to a reinstatement of the gift tax
of decedents. The secretary believes
the person of large means should be
permitted to give away his estate dur
ing his lifetime and thus avoid pay
ing tax on the transfer, a tax that
would be levied should the property
of himself.
This position is wholly untenable.
Mellon, from the beginning of the
estate tax law-back in 1916-has
been opposed to it. When, largely
through his influence the gift tax,
enacted in 1924, was repealed, Con-
gress amended the estate tax law to
include as taxable transfers of ma
terial amounts made within two years
of the decedent's death. This phase
OF the law is widely attacked as I'M
constitutional 1t is due for final de-
cisiOn by the Supreme Court shortly.
If held unconstitutional it means the
government must refund some hun
dreds of millions of dollars in taxes
collected on transfers and which
would have been cared for in the
regular way had not the gift tax law
been repealed.
1t is safe to assume that Mr. Mel
Ion expects the court of last resort
to declare the provision null and void.
Aside from the element of senti-
ment it is difficult to understand on
what logic the secretary basis his OBJ
lection to a gift tax. If the estate
tax is a proper tax why is it not es-
sential to provide safeguards against
evasion which the right, without pay
ment of tax, to give away the estate
before death. represents? The gift
tax affords such a safeguard.
Mr.. Mellon, Is years of age, is prob
ably the third richest man in the
world. We can understand that he
has no desire to pay a huge tax on
gifts he may make. But so far as
that is concerned, no man enthuses
over paying taxes. If there is any
more proper place to recoup shattered
government finances than from the
rich, whose wealth has been made
possible by the government, we would
like to have it pointed out to us.
is this true when the tax
is levied on the estates of men after
they are through with them.
However, congress will arrange its
own revenue measure and we trust
Andy Mellon and his ilk, with their
each his proportionate
share.

HIGH SCHOOL, BRUNO
PLAY AT HOMECOMING

The AskOv high school had what
it termed to call a homecoming day
Friday which marked the first ap-
pearance of a printed high school
paper which the editors fittingly
named, 1.-The Crucible." The paper
was filled with interesting news per-
tanning to the activities of the school
and announced tripleheader bas-
ketball game with Bruno for the eve
ming which was followed with lunch
being served in the basement of the
ID. B. S. hall.
In spite of the cold weather a large
crowd filled the ID. B. S. hall where
the games were played. The first
game was between the girls of both
high schools and ended in favor of
Askov with only one point margin -
% to 81. The second game of the
evening was played between the two
high school boys teams and this was
won by Askov 16 to 10. The third
game between the two town teams
was won by Askov % to 9. The girls
game was not decided until the very
end and some remarked that it pos
sibly would have gone on indefinitely
with first one and then the other
team taking the lead but for the
final whistle. Bruno has a rangy and
smooth working boys high school
team and a hard fought contest is
looked for when the two teams meet
in a return game on Bruno's floor.
The result of the town team game
placed these two teams on evenfOOt-
ing with one victory each. Perry
and Klatt of Willow River refereed
the games and worked efficiently to-
gether.
The evening was pleasantly spent
for everyone and good craftsmanship
was shown throughout the three
games which terminated in a social
hour in the lunch room.
AskOv Loses to Sandstone.
The Askov high school basketball
team went to Sandstone and were de-
feated at the hands of that quintet
Tuesday night by score of 26 to Is.
The game was played in the New
Theatre in the Quarry City and both
teams missed numerous opportunities
at the basket.
Otto Jensen, captain of the team
and stellar guard of the Askovites
was not able to play, being confined
to his bed with illness.

ers ability and think it goes to show
too that we do not lack intelligence
as much as the opposition accuses
us Of
Now let us look at what has been
accomplished here in Minnesota. We
have our Land O'Lakes organization
which is a great step toward eliminat-
ing gambling in butter which l think
is more the reason of the present low
price of butter than the overproduc-
tion and the unemployment. l hope
that all our local cooperative cream
cries will join that pretty soon. Then
we have our different local co-opera-
tive association which l think is the
greater of them all and which is of
unreasonable value to us if we only
realize it. Well l could keep on but
am afraid the editor will not allow
me space for any more, but great
progress has been made and if we
only set our aim and put all our
energy and will power into them, we
can accomplish what seems almost
impossible.
l like to mention something that
Magnus Johnson said in a campaign
speech. A big man said to him, you
milk cows" just like that was a
shame. Yes, Magnus said but you
milk the whisky bottle. Now it
seems to me that the big business
men and the gamblers in our COM
modify have MIXED us farmers so
long that we have just about gone
dry. Let us kick the pail before they
get the last drop and the way to do
it is to cooperate. Hoping this may
help to inspire some one to join our
cooperative association and to real
ize that that is the way for us to go.
Yours for cooperation.

Editor ASkov American:
see in last weeks ASkOv Amer
lean, that my friend, f. B. Greenwald,
has filed for the office of County Com
missioner for the fourth district.
| am quite sure that you. Mr. Green
valid, have some good reason to file,
either that Mr.. Stepan has acted in
some special cases different from your
opinion of how he should have acted.
or he might have left something I'M
done, which he ought to have pro-
noted
The custom in general up to the
present time for office seekers, has
been to make a personal call upon a
number of more or less Influential
and prominent voters and tell them
how glad they are to meet them, give
them a good handShake and leave
a-block of cards for distribution.
| suggest that you, Mr.. Greenwald,
tell US in these columns which are
read in practically all sections of Dis
trict No. 4, your main reason for filing
and what we can expect from you, so
we might cast our ballot intelligently
and know why we vote this or that.
Under the present economical condi-
lions it is very important that we
know what we can expect from any
and all public officers. 1t can be done
short and precise to the point with
out any personality. | am quite sure
both you and Mr.. Stepan are honest,
even if you might have different opin-
ions about some things or other.

little discussion. The first of these
was to discontinue the practice of
adding to the value of the building
and equipment such items as come
under maintenance, repairs, and gen.
eral expenses. This has been done
since 1923 and as result the book
value of the building and equipment
is inflated to the extent of approx
mately $4,000. The second suggestion
was that in computing the manufac-
turing cost of the butter all expense
items must be included Heretofore
such items as taxes, interest, insur-
ance, depreciation, ETC., have not been
included. In the future such items
will be included and naturally show
the manufacturing cost little high
er. If those items had been included
in 1881 the cost would have been
about go cents per pound.
Secretary Tuxen followed up these
two suggestions with a third which
was timely and appreciated, name
ly that the secretary's salary be re-
duced $50, and upon motion same
was accepted. The good work was
continued when Alfred Nielsen, the
buttermaker, told the audience that
he realized the financial difficulties
of the patrons and was willing to take
a cut in his salary of $50 per month.

W. E. Bots, head of the credit de-

an interesting and instructive talk on
general marketing conditions, illus

and the difficulties and obstacles the
organization must meet and over
come; he also referred to the excel

ton is now in as compared with a
year ago, which has been realized
through efficiency and saving.

But for one statement in this ar

These men may have been born under
a foreign flag, but their coming to
our shore has been our gain and their
birthplaces loss. If Russia has any
more such community and home

them to Pine county. After carefully
weighing the statements in that ar
ticle l felt indebted to the writer for
revealing the platform and program
of these invaders. He stated that he
was intimately acquainted with some
Of the leaders and esteems them high
ly. Consequently he no doubt has in
bibed freely of their ideas and has
adopted their program as his own.
They no doubt trust him freely as
they have entrusted him with their
private price list. l consider his
qualifications to speak first class. He
is too smart a man to think that any
of us came from Russia. The names
tell him that. BY Russia he means
the Siberian salt mines, penal colony
in Asiatic Russia. The average life
OF men owing to rigors of the climate
is four years. understand their pro-
gram and ultimate aim is the con-
fiscating our homes and lands for
hunting cabins and shooting grounds.
Any man who by word or by act OPP
poses this program will be banished
to the salt mines in Siberia Let the
farmers who are hoping things will
adjust themselves take warning. The

wrapped himself about the American
farmer. He must be cut loose or the
farmer will pay the price
Fourteen years ago four million
men were called out to defend our
homes from a threatened invasion so
they said. Billions in gold were eX-
pended and thousands of lives were
sacrificed for the cause. The boys
returned home, manned and estab-
lished homes of their own only to find
after fourteen years that more
deadly enemy had invaded our coun-
tryside. Men wearing badges of au-
thority from our own nation have
been sent out by the barons from wall
street and schemers from the halls
of our state Legislative halls and
are driving thousands of men from
their homes monthly and if conditions
remain on present levels for two more
years more men and families will be
driven from their homes than the
most fanatical patriot ever dreamed
OF Germany doing. l join with Ernest
Holler in an appeal for immediate ac-
ton to stem these invaders from st.
Paul.
