TUBERCULAR TESTS
GIVEN AT SCHOOLS
Benefit Movie Yields $50 to
Help; Christmas Seal
Drive Planned

Six hundred eighty-five school chill
dren, all the teachers who had not
had the test recently and 81 outsiders
received the Mantoux tests for tuber-
culosis here Monday and Tuesday.
The results of the tests were read
Wednesday but no records have been
released as yet.
Part of the expenses of the later
test will be paid from the receipts of
Parent-Teacher association benefit
show last week which amounted to
$50. DR.. Kathleen Jordan of the Min
nesota Public Health association gave
the tests here and will give others at
Walnut Grove, Lamberton and Nor
gan this week.
The Christmas seals sold every
year also help pay for the test which
is considered important in the drive
being made to eliminate the dread
disease.
The seal sale in Redwood Falls this
year will begin December under the
direction of Mrs. H. N. Nupson, who
has dllIlOuAiSCo Cll1I Ii Will OO SOAA-
Quoted differently than usual this
year.
"For several years." Mrs. Nupson
said, "school children have answered
the call splendidly and did the best
work they could in making the drive
a success but we feel that the event
is one of such vast Importance that
the selling should be handled by
adults who know the full Importance
of every SALE"
The plan this year includes two
drives by adults on the sales commit
tee. The first drive will be in the
business district and the second will
follow in the residential section.
Booths will be placed in several
places in the business district where
the seals can be obtained.

On other trips he has placed second,

auctions made.
Balko left early Monday and plan
ned to spend several days husking in
Nebraska fields to become accustomed
to the corn there. Several from here
will witness the contest.
In the state meet at Madelia Thurs

Well Diggers Strike
Wood Deep in Earth

The discovery of a piece of wood
1877 feet below the surface of the
earth on the j. B. Doyle farm in Mid
die Creek township calls for an ex-
PLANTATION from geologist.
As near as can be determined, the
block was about five inches in dia-
meter and six inches long. It was
neither petrified nor badly rotted, a
fact which is puzzling as well as how
it got to that depth. It was found
while well was being dug. The
drillers struck granite at 248 feet and
found normal supply of water.

mediation board reported that the en-
ployers would not accept the proposed
new wage scale.
He conferred at length with G. z.

President, said last night the President
had addressed letter to Johnston sug-
gesting three possible courses of action.
Johnston left Washtn gton without max
ing the letter public.
1t was pointed out by Early that the
President has no authority to direct a
railway company to adopt any policy,
and he had made his recommendations
in letter for that reason.

RIO DE JANEIRO, August 1s.-Pro-
visional President Getulio Vargas signed
a decree today convoking a constitu-
tional assembly on November Is to elect
constitutional president and promul-
gate new constitution for Brazil.
The assembly will meet on the 44th
anniversary fthe proclamation of the
republic. and three years and two weeks
after Vargas assumed power, following
the Liberal revolution.
Vargas, who appears to be the like
liest candidate for the four-year term
for President, will sail Tuesday for
North Brazil, where he will make a
months tour. His government has a
large majority Of the 254 deputies elect
ed to the assembly. Vargas is actually
the only candidate for President. Even
the state of Sac Paulo, which rebelled
in 1882, is friendly, because he has ap-
pointed civil governor there to sue
ceed the military ruler. A small oppo-
sltlon bloc, however, is expected from
Sac Paulo.
Amnesty Seen for Many.
A series of new amnesty measures is
expected to quicken the return of exiles
from the 1880 and 1882 revolutions.
Vargas northern trip contradicted
rumors he intended to retire. There
were reports that he desired to take
Sonora Vargas to Germany for her
health. She has not recovered fully
from broken legs received in an auto
mobile accident last April. The Pres
ldent, who also suffered broken legs,
recuperated quickly.
Vargas has been remarkably success
ful In co-ordinating the various revolu-
t1onary currents which aided him in
overthrowing the old Conservative re-
glme. He was the candidate of the Lib
eral Alliance in the 1880 presidential
elections, and led the revolution in Oc-
tober that year after the Washington
Luis government announced that its
candidate, Julio Prestes OF Sac Paulo.
had been elected.

Press Believes Forces Are at

BY Radio to The Star.
MOSCOW, August 19.-Strongly word
ed editorials in the Soviet press on the
subject of Soviet relations with Japan
and Mancnukuo reflect the increasing
concern with which the situation in the
Far East is being viewed here. Power
full forces are at work. in the opinion
of Moscow, to persuade Manchukuo that
il would be better to take the Chinese
Eastern Railway, Jointly owned BY the
Soviet Union and Manchukuo by force
than to purchase it at the present ne
gotiations between the two countries at
Toxic.
THE charges In certain japanese
newspapers" says Pravda, that in the
Toxic negotiations the Soviets are just
blufing to gain time obviously origi-
mated In the same source from which
has come the opinoin that the confer
ences over the sale Of the Chinese East
ern Railway are not worth while, and
that it would be preferable to resort to
force"
Price Held Significant.
What is described as 1.-The ridiculous
ly low figure" of $4,000 900 yen ($13,-
$4,000 currently offered for the line
by Manchukuo is considered as evidence
of the insincerity of the Manchurian
state in the negotiations. Pravda con-
tends. on the other hand that the So
Wet offer to take 200 600, 900 gold rubles
(sl02 900, ,00O) instead Of the 100000. 900

C. E. R., and it Is now realized that.
with the new lines in Manchuria built
and building threatening ruthless COM
petition, this historic railroad, built by
Czarist Russia for strategic purposes,
can have little importance In the future
to the Soviets.
Moscow indicated that its desire to
sell was inotivated in part by the belief
that the transaction might eliminate
future source of friction.
Might Result in War.
It Is believed that seizure Of the
C. E. r. by Manchukuo would not In
itself result in war, for Moscow has
made it clear that only in case OF the
violation of Soviet territory would the
Red army be brought into action. Yet
it is always possible that some border
incident resulting from the use Of force
by Manchukuo might result in an armed
clash
The Soviet government has taken note
of secret plans, now divulged, for the
construction of q strategic railway from
the northern terminus Of the Harnin-
Hailun line to the Manchurian town on
the Amur River opposite BE goveschensk.
1t was pointed out In Manchurian dis
patches that such q railway would make
it possible for the force controlling 1t
to sever Soviet communications along
the Trans-Siberian Railway north from
Bla goveschensk and thus expose the
Soviet maritime provinces. Of which
Vladivostok is the chief port.
