LONDON. March IS P.-stanley
Baldwin. lord president of the Council,
informed the House of Commons today

sentations to the Soviet government of
the grave view the British government

sador had visited the prisoners and had
found their general health satisfactory
and that they were permitted toexer-
cise
The Ambassador. he said. had I'M
mediately. upon learning of the arrests,

satisfactory answer" the Ambassador,
AIr. Baldwin said, had been instructed

nation.
Mr.. Baldwin continued:
Moreover, as the government Is con-

year-old law conferring extraordinary
powers upon the Ogpu (secret police,
the Central Executive Committee today
made public a decree calling upon that
organization to deal with special sever
ity'' as to employees of state institutions
guilty Of subversive activities.
The extraordinary powers include
sentencing and execution without public
trial
Answer Of Government
The action was the governments an
swer to recent roundup of high on
cials Of the commissariats of agricul-
ture and the state farms for alleged
counter-revolutionary movements in the
agrarian districts
1t also was connected with the more
recent arrests Of six Englishmen and
several Russians connected with the
-Vickers Co. and state cleo
trical trusts for alleged sabotage in i'm
portant electrical stations.
Thirty-flve men involved in the agri-
cultural commissariat arrests have been
shot and others imprisoned without
pubic trlal, while Investigations con-
tinue in the other case.
Bitter Editorial Attack.
The newspaper Pravda simultaneously
published an editorial entitled mo
Mercy to Class Enemies" In which it
declares that some remnants of the
former privileged group had penetrated
Soviet institutions and were showing
black ingratitude to the government
which protects them by engaging in
hostile acts against the Socialist con-
struction."
1t calls for renewed vigilance to wipe
out the class enemy.
The editorial condemns the Metro
politan- -Vickers representatives in ad-
vance by declaring unqualifedly that
some employees of that company took
an active part" in a plot to destroy
certain electrical stations.

Fess said he believed new taxation
would be necessary to balance the
budget. even with passage of the pend
ing bill, beer tax and an extension of
the Federal gasoline levy. He said,
We will still be short $5lS,0oo, 900 If
We pass this bill"
Senator Harrison disagreed. The Mis-
sissippi Democrat maintained the three
measures concerned would make it un-
necessary to increase income taxes or
enact q sales levy.
Hastings Gives Support.
Hastings delved into the record Of two
years ago and called the roll OF many
Democrats who voted to override Presi-
dent Hoover's veto Of the bill enlarging
veterans benefits.
He said he would vote for the bill
solely because the administration Is
demanding 1t As an essential part Of its
program"
Notwithstanding the overwhelming
majority Of his party in the House and
Senate" he added, the President s
hands are tied unless we give him this
dictatorial power. 1t takes courage to
cut appropriations and If we have an
Executive with courage enough to do
that job We should give him the power" "
Hebert said, This Is no time to in
dulge In political discussions" but 1t is
time for action. immediate action"
Senator Capper, Republican. OF
Kansas. also supported the bill. saying
to refuse to give the President the power
sought would, in my judgment, be
unpatriotic."
First Opposition.
Senator Clark. Democrat, of Missouri.
was the first Democrat to express op-
position.
MY objection to the pending meas
ure," he asserted, aside from matters
of detail, is in general principle that it
seeks to effect economies by executive
order rather tnan by constitutional
legislation.
ut is idle to say that the President
Is to be charged with the determination
simply means that these legislative mat
ters are to be determined BY appointiye
officers and clerks rather than by the
elected Representatives Of the people.
II am unwilling to agree that the
mere fact Of appointment by the Execu-
tive vests an omcer with infallibility
and renders his judgment superior to
that Of the members Of Congress elected
by the people"
Explains Position.
Clark revealed he had excused himself
in the Democratic caucus "on the
ground 1t was contrary to pledges made
to my constituents during the course OF
my campaign" that he would vote
against "abdication by Congress of its
duties and the grant Of dictatoria]
power to the Executive"
Senator Borah took the floor late in
the day and demanded smaller cuts for
the lower-paid Federal employee. He
said 1t was unjust to cut the employe
who makes 81 900 . year the same Is
those making $4,000" and asked Har-
rison II there should not be a limit in
the lower classes.

CAMBRIDGE IS
CITY MAYOR
CONTINUED from Page u

Arthur E. Nelson, Republican. Cover
nor Floyd B. Olson in the election
last November defeated John E. Re-
gan, Democrat, by vote of to
and Earle Brown, Republican, by a
vote of s to 1. There is, no doubt that
Anderson's loss of this ward by such
large margin is almost entirely at
tributable to his veto of the beer bill.
The same Over-turn in the vote in
several other wards may be accounted
for in the main to resentment over
the mayors beer veto. But the
mayors beer stand was, however, not
wholly liability. His stand in oppo-
sition to the beer ordinance brought
him many votes in the dry sections
of the city. In the Sth and 18th
wards, both of which are overwhelm-
ingly Republican, Mr. Anderson broke
even with his Republican opponent.
He actually carried the 18th ward by
small margin while the Farmer
Labor nominees were beaten by heavy
majorities IN the ward last November.
Endorsement Most Important.
Mayor Anderson would, however,
have survived the election had he Sc
cured the endorsement of the Farmer
Labor Association. As suggested
above his failure to keep in close
touch with the leaders of the move
ment and bitter opposition to his can
didacy by several prominent workers
of the party, accounted for his failure
to secure the endorsement.
The Farmer-Labor nominees for
other offices did exceptionally well
under the circumstances. Naturally
the lack of unity in the campaign
caused other candidates to sustain
losses as well as did Mayor Anderson
There were Farmer-Labor endorses
for alderman and of these five, were
elected. In the other two aldermanic
contests the Farmer-Labor nominees
were defeated by small margins.
Lynn Thompson Leads.
In the race for school board, Lynn
Thompson veteran labor member of
the board, led the field by a substan-
tial margin over his opponents. The
second endorsee of the Farmer-Labor
Association, though running for the
first time for office, polled a large
vote.
Mrs. Philip Erickson, Farmer-Labor.
was elected to the library board.
Successful Farmer-Labor candidates
for alderman who ran with Farmer
Labor endorsement, are the following:

election.
In the Eleventh ward the Farmer

5Oth Anniversary

A large number of friends and rel

and Mrs. Charles F. Schwartz of west

to celebrate their fiftieth wedding an
niversary.
Mr. and Mrs. Schwartz were mar
ried at Paynesville in 1883. For the
past twenty-three years they have
lived on their farm near Sandstone.
A year ago they retired from active
work and their son took over the
place.
OF the ten children born to them,
nine are still living and all were at
home for the day. Among the guests
were several who attended the we'd
ding fifty years ago-Mrs. Carl Bork,
Mrs. F. Schaumann, Mrs. VIM. Wend-
landt, and C. Rein, all of Paynesville.
Other guests were Mr.. and Mrs. Carl
Johnson and Mrs. Hilda Nelson of

landt and family, Mrs. Robert Bur-
rows, Gwendolyn Weber; Lydia, Idel-
la, and Edward Schaumann, Mr.. and
Mrs. Ben Zimmerman and family, all
of Paynesville, and Mr.. and Mrs. Err
vim Stevens of Rock Creek, besides a
large number of neighbors and friends
from the Sandstone community.
The weather was ideal for an out
door gathering, and the afternoon was
spent in visiting with old friends and
neighbOrs. Mr.. and Mrs. Schwartz
are very grateful to all those who
came and helped make the occasion
such a happy one.

The annual Pine County Swimming
school will be conducted at Grind
stone lake for two weeks beginning
Monday, July 10, with Miss Dorothy
Dempsey, the only accredited Red
Cross Swimming examiner in the
county in charge. 1t is hoped by the
Red Cross that every boy and girl
from the age of three to eighteen will
avail themselves of the opportunity
to receive this splendid instruction.
According to L. w. Brown and Mrs.
A. E. Eddy of Hinckley, supervisor
of the school and chairman of the
Pine County Red Cross respectively,
a small registration fee of 81 will
be charged for each child. Last year
the Red Cross assumed much of the
responsibility for financing the course
but due to the heavy demands upon
it the past winter, it finds itself i'm

Transportation last year was fur
nished by the various towns on a CO.
operative basis and every one re-
sponded wonderfully.

PRISON LOOMS
UP BRIGHTER
Continued from Page u

about IL miles from the business
section of the village. Option on 1885
acres of land was secured in 1881 at
cost of $500 per acre to the govern
ment. The title on practically all of
it has been cleared up. The citizens
committee also arranged for a spur
from the Great Northern railroad to
the prison farm.
Government Has $4,000 Invested.
Bids for construction of the prison
building were opened on Dec. 80, 1882,
and the lowest bidder was Walter w.
Magee, st. Paul, at $30S,000. The
architects were Eckman and Holm of
Minneapolis. The cost of their work,
surveying and the investment in the
land amounted to about $4,000 to the
government. The Sandstone commun-
ity had also incurred some expense
in what was paid for lands over that
allowed by the governmental the
neighborhood of $4,000. Much time
and effort had also been expended by
the committee and others in promot-
ing the project.
Then came the shock on Jan. 81,
1888, that the appropriations COM
mittee in the lame duck session of
Congress eliminated the appropria-
ton for the proposed federal prison,
though the project had the approval
of Sanford Bates, director of prisons,
and the o. K. of Attorney General
Mitchell. With the onslaught on the
Eighteenth amendment to the consti-
tuition and its probable repeal it is
thought that the Appropriations COM
mittee members assumed there would
be less need for an additional prison
and therefore struck out the appro-
priation which had previously been
sanctioned. The need for more prison
facilities, if not for federal prisoners

st. Cloud and other state institutions.
is evident, so negotiations were COM
menced with Minnesota senators and
congressman for reinstatement of the
regular congressional appropriation.
So far without result.
Gov. Olson For 1t.
The public works program inaug-
urated by Congress with it's appropri
alton of $780, 100000 was conceived
of as a good means through which to
secure the necessary capital for the
prison. The Pine county senator and
representative with three business
men made the trip to see the gov
ernor. His reply was that he would
include the project with his recon-
mendations for public works to be
carried out in Minnesota under the
federal program. The work to be
carried out in Minnesota may include
the nine-foot channel in the Missis-
sippi river, much road work and some
public buildings. Governor Olson will
be in attendance at the Worlds fair
in Chicago on Minnesota daytime
21st-and from there plans on going
direct to Washington to personally
present his recommendations for the
public works program in Minnesota.

MINNESOTA PIONEER
PASSES AT VIRGINIA

The many relatives and friends or
Mrs. Laura Shaske in the Brook. Park
community, were sad at the news OF
her death which occurred at the home
of her son, Frank, at Virginia, on Fri
health for years, but apparently was
quite we'll until two weeks ago when
she was stricken with the illness
which resulted in her death. Her
passing closes the life of one of Min
nesota's pioneers who struggled
through the early hardships of the
state. Her interesting stories of those
experiences are remembered by many,
and she leaves behind clean record
of life well lived.
Laura Cess was born in Germany
in 1854. At the age of eight years
she, with her parents, came to Mime
sofa and settled near Howard Lake.
Later they moved to Rice county. In
1881 she was united in marriage to
John Shaske at Nerstrand. To them
were born four children, Ernstina,
Mrs. Ralph Mcclellan, deceased;
Julia, Mrs. w. B. Kelsey of Denver,
Colo, Edward of Brook Park, and
Frank of Virginia. Besides these she
helped to rear five motherless chill
dren of her husband.
In 1896 she with her family came
to Brook Park. They were among the
first of the pioneers to settle there
after the Hinckley fire. Her thrift,
her sense of humor, and her jolly
spirit won for her the love of all who
knew her. A lovely monument to her
memory is the grove of trees which
she planted on the site of her old
home, the present Elmer Chase farm.
The seeds of these trees she brought
from her Rice county home.
Early in life she was called upon
to suffer the loss of her husband and
her only sister, Molly, Mrs. VIM.
Baultman, both within a year.
Beside her surviving children she
leaves to mourn her going, twelve
grandchildren, four great-grandchil-
dren, four half-brOthers, two half-sis-
ters, her sister-in-law, Mrs. A. B. Zieg-
Ter, a number of nieces, nephews, and
other relatives.
A beautiful service at the Brook
Park village church marked the close
of her earthly days.
A quartet composed of nephews and
nieces of Mrs. Shaske sang with SYM
pathy the favOrite hymns while the
lovely flowers and arrangements spoke
to the bereaved family the sympathy
that was not expressed in words.
Six men, the husbands of nieces,
carried her to her last resting place
beside her husband in the village
cemetery.
Out-of-town people attending were,
John Shaske, Faribault; Geo. Smith.
Mr.. and Mrs. Andrew Story, Mr.. and
Mrs. Martin Cess, Mr.. and Mrs. Leon
ard Cess, all of Kenyon; VIM. Bault-
man, Richard Baultman, Faribault;
Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Shaske, Mr.. and
Mrs. Roland Martin, and Russell
Martin, all of Virginia; Mr.. and Mrs.
John Farmer, Lloyd, Lee, and Miss
Marguerite of Minneapolis; Mr.. and
Mrs. A. r. Ziegler and Mr.. and Mrs.
Andrew Alderman, Cambridge; E. H.
Ziegler, ST. Paul; Mr.. and Mrs. Robert
Brown and Mrs. Henry Schultz of
Pine City.
