Airship Shopping? Check Its Curves;
Uncle Sam Does, Before He'll Buy
| NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

AKRON. Ohio, May 3.-Curves
are just as much the concern of
the United States Navy before it
accepts new airship such as the
Macon, as they are to a woman
buying a new dress.
1t is important to know the kind
of curve the airship can. describe
against the sky when turning a
corner or when turning completely
about, as these points have to do
with her manoeuvering and ease
of handling.
Turn in 35OO-ft. Circle
A part of the test flights has
to do with these turns. Before
accepting the Akron, the navy de-
tmanded that she be able to turn
about in diameter Of $500 feet.
The same demand holds in the
ease of the Macon.
Because an airship leaves no
tracks, it is hard to measure the
turns. So instruments with such
names as theodolite, camera OBJ
scura and yawmeter are used.
The camera obscura takes a SER
les of pictures of the airship while
describing a turn. Pictures taken
at intervals of 10 seconds on a
sheet of paper form a curve and
thus show the path that has been
taken.
Angles Measured simultaneously
The theodolite is surveyors
telescope with the eyepiece at the
side rather than at the end. An
observer measures the angle be-
tween the line drawn to a certain
point on the airship and another
line perpendicular to the ships
original course.
These angles are measured at
1O-second intervals.
Two of the instruments are

spend the day. Speaking at 1870 p. m.
To those farmers who have ordered
hay through the Holiday Assn, wish
to state that my request meant to find
out how much hay we needed in Pine
county, besides giving the State Agri-
cultural Department an estimate. 1t
does not guarantee that you will get
the amount you have ordered. Blanks
to be filled out will be sent soon to
farmers who have their orders in.
Our meetings and picnics of late
have been we'll attended, which shows
that at least some of the farmers are
wide awake to safeguard their well
fare and demand a right to live with
social justice equal to that of others.
Milo Reno spoke at the County Fair
last Friday and drew the largest
crowd to the fair grounds that l can
remember. The picnic in the nice
Askov park last Sunday was splen-
did success with a large turnout, and
good speakers. / want to say to you

LAKERS WIN

test Sunday After Once
Leading II to 6.
Brook Park and Sturgeon
Lake to Play for Title
Sunday.

Sturgeon Lake won the deciding
game of the championship series Of
the northern division of the Pine
County Baseball League Sunday when
it met Carlton on the Moose Lake dia-
mond. This gave the Lakers the
right to play Brook Park of the south
ern division for the championship of
the league, the first game of which
will be played Sunday at Sturgeon
Lake.
Sturgeon nosed out Carlton in the
ninth inning. Over 1000 people
damned the Moose Lake ball park
to witness the most hectic baseball
contest staged there in years, con-
test in which the fans saw an eigh-
teen year old pitching recruit being
called in from the outfield to hold
the Carlton club to two hits and no
runs for six innings while his team
mates overcame a six run lead to
win the game.
Robert Olson, the Sturgeon Lake
left fielder took over the pitching
duties with the bases loaded and with
two men out in the third inning.
Three misplays by the Lakers gave
Carlton four more runs in that in
ming before the side was retired.
After that frame Carlton was through
as far as scoring was concerned. The
young finger set them down with two
hits during the remaining six innings.
Monroe Cunningham of Sturgeon
Lake again starred at the bat, get
ting four hits in six times at bat,
getting an average of .577 in the three
Carlton games.
Carlton had first bats and started

INTERNATIONAL
NEWS REVIEW
By GEORG STRANDVOLD

Responsible public opinion in Eu-
rope is influenced and very largely
directed-to an extent unknown in
the United States-by two newspap-
ers, THE Times" of London and lie
Temps" of Paris. Leading articles in
the dignified columns of these news
papers carry the weight of an author
ity which has been built UP on tradi-
lions of correct information; sound
judgment; intimate collaboration with
the men who shape the destinies of
the Old World, and a certain calm,
aristocratic aloofness. Many a cab
met crisis has been precipitated by
these papers, many an international
conflict smoothed out, or aggravated,
by opinions expressed tersely and
bluntly in their columns.
Then and Now.
A few days ago, THE Times" look
ing back to the month of August,
1914, when the World war started,
and considering it instructive to make
comparisons between then and now,
contained a severe editorial on Adolf
Hitler's Germany of 1888.
After tracing the developments that
have taken place in Germany during
the intervening years, "The Times"
concludes by asserting that Germany
today is as much of menace to world
peace as it was in 1914, that is,
equally arrogant, equally militaristic,
equally lacking in consideration of
the interests of other nations, equally
anxious for "a place in the sum-"
Special reference is, of course,
made to the officially sponsored Ger
man propaganda going on in Austria

EIGHT HURT IN
AUTO COLLISION
Six Young Fin1ayson Folks
Were Returning From
County Fair.
Edward Benda, Pine City,
in Other Car, Receives
Skull Fracture.

A head-on collision of two automo-
biles occurred on the pavement just
north of Happy O'Malley's filling sta
tion between Sandstone and Hinckley
at a. m. Sunday morning, causing
injury to all of the eight occupants
and serious injury to one of the young
men, his skull being fractured.
The one car was occupied by Bern
ard Olson, Fair Store employe of Pine
City, driver, and Edward Benda, Limo
type operator in the Pine Poker office
at Pine City. They were headed
southwark.
Benda, young man of "a, was the
most seriously injured his skull being
fractured. He was Immediately taken
to the Deaconess hospital at Mime
apolis. At first it was thought his
injury might prove fatal, but latest
reports from the hospital are to the
effect that he has a fair chance Of
recovery, but not yet out of danger.
He is conscious at times. Olson was
cut and bruised some but is back at
his work.
The other automobile was occupied
by six young Finlayson folks who
were returning home from the Pine
County Fair. John Koski, owner and
driver, was badly hurt, having sew
eral ribs fractured as we'll as being
cut by glass and bruised.
Frank Lundgren's most serious in
jury was a bad wound over one eye.
Ida Lundgren, Sigrid Mannelin, Anna
Hellman, and Art Koski were all cut
and bruised more or less. Friends
who followed in other cars took them
to Sandstone for medical and surgical
treatment. They remained in Sand
stone until late Sunday morning and
were then removed to their homes
except Frank Lundgren who could not
be taken home until in the evening.
Nearly all of the eight young folks
involved in the accident were rem
dered unconscious.
Both cars were demolished.

PINE RIVER CLUB ASKS
FOR MINIMUM PRICE
ON DAIRY PRODUCT

At the regular monthly meeting of
the Pine River Community club, a
resolution was adopted, copies of
which were sent to the Governor and
the Commissioner of Agriculture, ask
ing them to cooperate with the gov
eminent in trying to fix minimum
price on butterfat. Following is the
text of the resolution:
Recognizing that the dairy farmer
has borne an undue portion of the
burden imposed by the unfavorable
economic conditions which have pre-
vailed during the past four years,
which burden has further been in
creased by the rapid rise in price of
mill feeds and other concentrates es-
sential in the production of dairy
products, together with a sharp rise
in prices of industrial and other COM
modities, and a serious shortage of
hay and other forage crops in the
chief dairy producing sections, and
recognizing the need of an up-trend
in butterfat prices in keeping with
the increase in prices of other COM
modities if the purchasing power of
the dairy farmer is to be maintained
consistently with that of other groups
in the drive for National Industrial
recovery, and realizing that the pur-
chasing power of thousands of dairy
farmers in the dairy sections is es-
sential to the plan of speedy recov-
cry: Therefore. be it Resolved by t
Pine River Community club in meet
ing assembled, that your every legi-
innate effort and influence be exer-
cised at the earliest possible date to
establish through governmental chan
nels, minimum price on butterfat;
that your hearty cooperation to that
desired arrangement will be given to
the federal administration in it's ma
tion-wide campaign towards the goal
of industrial and business recovery"

The newly organized Duquette-Oa
Lake ball team went to MahtOwa Sum
day and defeated the Mahtowa team
in a thrilling game by the score Of

very nice and steady ball throughout
the game, allowing only eight scat
tered hits and striking out 10 men.
Behind Leslie's splendid pitching his
teammates, with the exception Of two
innings, played errorless and good de-
fensive baseball. For seven innings
the Mahtowa team was held score
less.
1t was pronounced by several of
the Mahtowa fans as the best played
