In a dispute with Norway over its
ownership.
The Norwegians conceded DAM

that Norway was entitled to a
portion of eastern Greenland.
The historical basis of this claim
goes back to the almost prehis-
toric time of Eric the Red, by
whom the territory was named.
Denmark, however, disputed the
claim, declaring Norway broke the
continuity of occupation in the
18th century when Norwegian
ships failed to call with food and

DOING SOME EARLY ELECTION
GROWING

at the school election, Hans Ras-
mussen can consider himself for
tunate that they gave him as MANY
votes as they did.
Mrs. Heron was only given
credit for two votes, and we know
positively that there were more
votes cast for her. Had thew beeo
smart enough they would have
given her a few more. We know
now that some of the votes were
stolen. How many they stole from
the rest of the candidates we do
not know, but it don't matter much
either, it just gives them a chance
to do some Growing over a victory
that wasn't so much of a victory
after all.
We know now that out of 500
votes they can steal and line un
the S1S, and that is 40 votes less
than they could swing in line last
fall, so if there is any GROWING to
be done it is up to the Reds to
do it. "
