had long contemplated grading d
membership fees, possibly $40 and s.
yearly for grade A and 3 business

membership and more interest.
This brought forth much discussion

necessity, noting that live towns al
ways had strong. clubs and vice versa
Il. M. Boyes argued care must be taken
lest large membership from distant
communities might result in club con-

Mr. Riley suggested that the territory
to be covered by memberships should
be restricted to certain reasonably
close area around the city. Carlton
Joughin favored that plan, and Boyes
said such a plan would remove his
objection A. Nd. Hoffman thought fees
for business houses should be graded
according to size of concerns

Senator Thomas D. Schall of Min

In response to letter written by
Senator Schall to the governor in
which he "complimented" Governor
Olson, the governor said:

terpret my reasons for withdrawing
as code administrator in Minnesota.
I withdrew because compliance
boards have been set up here which
obviate the necessity for further ac-
ton on my part.

be workable but unfortunately the
Department of Agriculture has not
kept step with General Johnson's de-
partment and it's failure to increase
the buying power of the farmers has
endangered the entire program.
"There are many fine citizens in
the United States who believe in the
plan and want it to succeed" Gov
ernor Olson said.
"On the other hand there are a
number of political guerrillas in this
country, some holding high offices,
who are attacking the NRA for sin
lister reasons" Governor Olson said.
81 note that you were absent at
the time the vote was taken on the
National Recovery act" he continued
in his letter to Mr.. Schall. "It is
charged in Minnesota that your alb
sence was deliberate so that you
might afterward determine which po-
sition to take. Of course I would not
be so unkind as to charge you with
that. I presume that your absence
was due to your onerous duties as a
