SPRING BRINGS
FIRE RANGERS
District Ranger Swedberg Tells OF
Fire Dangers and Destruction
to Wild Life.

The Forest service is completing
arrangements for the seasons activ-
tiles according to District Ranger P.
w. Swedberg of Moose Lake, in charge
of this district Field men are being
assigned to their stations throughout
the district which covers 100 town.
ships. Equipment is being overhauled
and is being distributed to the SUBJ
districts in preparation for active fire
prevention and fire control, which
is the foresters' first call to duty.
One nice thing about winter, said
the ranger, we at least have no forest
fires. Neither the forest, whether
real or potential, nor the wild life
which inhabits it, is exposed to the
ravages of this grim destroyer of all
that we cherish and hold sacred out
in the wonderful kingdom of nature.
But when winter gives way to spring
time and creative nature begins its
work, the scene changes from one of
relative peace and safety to merciless
sacrilegious destruction.
Many people seem to believe that
running fires in the spring are bene-
fetal, that they clean up the country.
The consequences become a common
burden, said Mr.. Swedberg, yet the
practice continues. The fact is that
fires do not create, they only destroy.
The practice of setting them is re-
sponsible for most of the treeless
wastes, described in the lengthening
lists of tax delinquent lands, that
everybody pays for, continued the
ranger.
The ranger going on stated that a
great many people have a more or
less we'll developed personal interest
in the wild life of the forest. Not all
of them, however, fully comprehend
that in order to have game we must
first of all have the tree growth
the cover in which game can live.
Next to that in order of Importance,
the necessary protection and oppor-
tunity to increase. AS there must
be small trees before there can be
large ones, so must also our wild life
have cover and opportunity to rear
it's young. Running fires in the spring
frequently destroy in few days, more
bird life than the hunters bag in a
year.
During more recent years there has
developed a fine spirit of interest and
cooperation from every quarter, in
feeding our bird life during the win
ter when weather conditions make it
difficult for birds to find food enough
to survive the cold. Does it not seem
inconsistent to have put forth Sc
much effort at considerable expense
to save our birds from starvation
during the winter only to have them
burned out by unnecessary fires dur
ing the nesting season? asks Mr.
Swedberg. This is something, for
everyone to think about. No matter
how we look at it. said the ranger
in the final analysis, it is the fire
setter who constitutes the great chal-
lenge to every ideal of conservation

YOUNG PINE CITY
WOMAN PASSES
Flu Complications Led to Fatal Ill.
ness Which Took Life OF
Genevieve Tate.

Pine City lost one of its active
young women Saturday when death
claimed Miss Genevieve Tate at the
University hospital in Minneapolis,
where she had been confined for sew
eral weeks.
Genevieve Allie Tate was born at
Rock Creek on June 5, 1906 and was
at the time of her death, 26 years,
9 months and Is days of age. She
came to Pine City with her parents
16 years ago and finished her edu-
cation in the Pine City schools.
In December she suffered an at
tack of flu but because of her active
and ambitious character she would
not give up her work until cOmpli-
cations developed to force her to give
up and go to the hospital, where she
suffered a great deal until the very
last. But in spite of her suffering
she always had a smile to greet her
many friends who called at the hos
pital to see her.
Everything the surgical and med
done, but her mission here on earth
was done and with a ringing testi-
mony of her faith in the Lord Jesus
Christ, she passed from this life.
There is left to mourn her death
her father and mother, Mr.. and Mrs
John Tate, one brother. Leslie; and
three sisters, Lois E., Clara A. and
Viola (Mrs. George Daley. Three
sisters preceded her in death. There
are numerous other relatives and a
large circle of friends will sympa-
thize deeply with the bereaved family

INTERNATIONAL
NEWS REVIEW
BY GEORG STRANDVOLD

At the present moment very few
persons are in position to say, defin-
itely, anything about how close Eu-
rope was to new war last week.
And they who do know, remain silent.
That the war threat was more serious
than the traditional scare" was
evidenced by statement of the Brit
ish prime minister, J. Ramsay Mac
Donald, who upon arriving in Rome
last Saturday very earnestly said:
I'VE have no time to waste. Peace
must be organized quickly; otherwise
it may never be organized at ALL
A bewildering feature of all the war
talk of the last couple of weeks has
been the ostensibly complete absence
of an alleged cause of war. AS far
as the general public was concerned
there wasn't anything to fight about.
But undoubtedly international rival
ries, accentuated by the ascendancy
of Adolph Hitler as chancellor of
Germany. had their deep under-cur-
rents, visible to the keen eyes of
diplomats.
New Disarmament Plan.
For the statesmen of the great pow
ers it was a busy and an exciting
week. Macdonald had come to Geneva
to make a final attempt at resusitat-
ing the moribound international con-
ference for the reduction and limita-
ton of ornaments. Out of confer
ences which he summoned a new plan
was evolved, superseding, it seems,
all propositions formerly presented,
for Macdonald, admitting the utter
futility of pleasing everyone, proposed
that Germany be given the right to
double the size of her standing army,
now 100000 men, thus increasing it
to 100000.
Other continental powers are to re-
duce their armies from whatever size
they now have, to 100000 with the
exception, however, that France be
allowed an extra colonial army, COM
prising 100000 soldiers, and that Italy
maintains a colonial force of $4,000.
In this manner it is thought that
the German claim for arms equality
and the French claim for national
security may be satisfied Berlin is
not so sure of this, nor is it any GER
tainty that France will accept the
Macdonald plan. He expected no
general acceptance; what he wanted

CHESTER, Ill, April Hubert
c. Moor, convicted slayer of his
wife, Marjorie Moor, indianapolis
school teacher, because she left
dirty dishes in the sink" sits in the
death house here today, gazing
with a new hope at the rays Of
daylight that filter into his cell.
Sentenced to die April 7 in the
electric chair. Moor was informed
today that the Illinois supreme
court has certified writ Of error
on appeal, and granted him an in
definite stay of execution TO the
June term of the court.
Moor, who was found guilty at
Robinson, Ill, of shooting his wife
on road near Robinson and re-
porting her death due to holdup
men, had been breaking visibly I'M
der strain caused by the delay on
his appeal.
Prison guards said his handwrit-
ing had grown almost illegihle be-
cause of shaky fingers, and his
quick starts when spoken to be-
trayed his nervousness at the ap-
proach of that last walk through
the door from which there is no
return.
The writ of error granting Moor
the stay was sustained by Supreme
Court Justice Frank j. Dunn, Town
