Formation and Associated Intrusives in
Northeastern Minnesota" Their book
containing twenty maps of the area

Regional Forester Tinker Tells
of Benefits of Conservation
Work in Forests.

Forestry, reforeStation, and conserva-
ton mean immensely more than they
did month ago." E. w. Tinker, Re-
gional Forester said in an interview
Monday. There are now over 1900 men
in the Nine National Forest Units of
the Lake States, and forestry is taking
its proper place in conservation in the
United States. The Ill winds of adj
versity have affected the linking of
labor with land use and have advanced
the conservation and regeneration of
our forests more than the previous
years of plenty.
-Four departments of the government
are launching "The Presidents Emer-
gency Conservation work.
The Department of Labor is re-
sponsible for establishment of state
quotas and all the selection of the
men.
The War Department is responsible
for the enrolment, outf1tting, con-
ditioning of the men, and the operation
OF the forest camps as to admins
tration, housing, subsistence, sanitation
and medical care.
The Department of Agriculture,
through the Forest Service. and the
Department of the interior, through
the Park Service, are primarily re-
sponsible for the selection of work
projects and for the employment of
the men in the forest and parks.
These men are helping to regener-
ate, not only their own lives and for
tunes, but also "the new public domain, %
the large area that is reverting back
to public ownership, stripped of it's
natural wealth, and now only a tax
burden upon it's owner.
This Jobs in the Woods" program of
the President is designed to bring men
to realize that they are needed upon
this earth and to help them to get a
grip on it. The program includes the
extreme opposite elements, Flood and
Fire. Debris needs to be cleared from
the hearts of the forests and from the
minds of men. Water needs to be kept
In the great sponges formed beneath
the forest floor by the tree leaves and
roots.
Forestry means today much more
than 1t did quarter of a century
ago when National Forests began to
take form-when a few far-visioned
men, such as the other Roosevelt and
Clifford Pinchot, set out to save our
birthright from total destruction by
unenlightened selfishness and greed.
The present organizations of State and
National Foresters have been built up
Of men with sufficient moral fibre and
calibre to turn obstacles and opposition
into progress. 1t is such tradition and
training by adversely that is making
possible the program of today, and it
should be great cause for rejoicing to
these mothers of conservation minded
sons that their boys are going to
battle in the peace time tree trenches
lover here" rather than to be crushed
by the tractors of war lover there"
These men, now digging in the soil
and learning something about the
length of time it takes little tree to
grow, will absorb other phases of
forestry as they go, and conservation
will be woven into the warp and woof
of our civilization.

18th Anniversary.

Rev. Father j. E. Schiffrer, at one
time stationed in this city in charge OF
st. Anthonys Parish, will celebrate the
25th anniversary of his ordination to
the priesthood on June 18th at CHS
holm.
The Catholic societies of Chisholm
assisted by many non-catholics, are
uniting in furnishing a program foI
the celebration of the silver anniversary
of Father Schiffrer and have ap-
pointed an array of committees to have
charge.
He was ordained on June IL, 1905
after graduating from the st. Paul
Catholic Seminary. After his ordina-
ton he came to Ely and remained here
two years. Leaving Ely he has been
stationed at Chisholm for the past q
years.
Several from this city are arranging

Arrowhead Fine Country
Says George III. Bradley.

Advantages of the Minnesota Arrow
head country as great summer
playground and resort country were
lauded by George H. Bradley, director
of the State Tourist Bureau at st. Paul
who was an Arrowhead visitor this week
"Other states over the nation spend
millions to create single artificial lake
and dress up resort qualities" Mr.
Bradley said Minnesota has 10000 OF
its own natural lakes and every resident
of this state should lend his effort to
advertising the advantages of the re-
irrational qualities of his common
wealth.
"The lakes of Minnesota are of in
calcuable value. Three organizations
have done good work in publicizing
these vacation assets, the Ten Thousand
Lakes Association, the State Tourist
Buerau and the Arrowhead Association
This movement is not only for those
who have had the perspicacity and
foresight to start resorts, but for the
entire business community"

Published Reports Are
An Absolute Necessity.

The purpose Of public financial state
ments in the counties and villages is
for the information of the taxpayers.
Taxpayers should develop the habit
Of studying these published reports, as
they appear in the home newspapers,
for, after all, these reports are in
tended to give the man on the outside,
an inside picture Of what Is being done
with his tax money, Norman A. Bergen,
secretary of the Minnesota Taxpayers
association, declared in a talk Monday.
"Omcials who try to do the right
thing, and who use good judgment and
honest methods are never afraid to take
the people into their confidence. Where
there is reluctance to give these records
to the public, there grows, perhaps
many times unjustly, suspicion that
is not helpful to the establishment of
confidence" Mr.. Bergen declared.
The National Municipal Review States
that "some city governments which have
never before seriously considered in
forming the citizenry about the SER
vices bought by taxes are turning their
attention to adequate presentation of
the facts. Students of administration
have for some time been concerned
with records adequate for analysis in
the interests of efficiency. The COM
mittee, which has been dealing especi-
ally with this, has used its previously
developed material as a background
for suggestions on the preparations of
a report for public use. Detailed in
illustrative charts and tables
have been made up for municipal off,
Gals to be of direct assistance to them
in informing anyone interested as to
the work and achievements of public
works activities in city government"

ways; Between Here and
Tower ON List.

Oiling of 1856 miles of bituminous
surfaced state highways will begin
shortly after June Is according to an
announcement by N. w. Elsberg, Min
nesota Highway Commissioner.
"Only work which is essential to
maintenance of present road surfaces
is included in this program" Mr.. Els
berg said 1.-THE cost will be about
100000. Ordinarily about $1,000, 900
would be spent on re-treatment at this
season, but we are holding down ex-
penditures to minimum.
Later, If it develops that additional
oiling must be done to prevent deterior-
alton of any bituminous road, the
necessary work will be authorized, for
we intend to protect the states invest
ment in its trunk system first of all.
Should Federal aid be made avail
able to the Highway department, as we
hope, then there will be n expansion
of activities in proportion to the amount
of money to be spent. We hope that
Federal aid will permit the state to
take over the 1880 miles of new routes
authorized by the legislature"
About 3,433, 900 CALLERS of road oil
will be required to treat the sections

Departing from the usual GUS

on a charge of embezzlement is

Wife Testifies
Mrs. Berry Clark, an invalid,
was assisted to the stand yester-
day by her brother, S.. M. Hamll-
ton. Leaning on a crutch, she
testified in a low voice that the
Clarks did not live extravagantly
and that the automobile which
they owned was bought in 1925
or 1927.

took the stand on beha Of the
State, proceeded to ask himself
formal questions and answered
the questions. In answer to cross
examination by Defense Counsel
F. -Tarnard Welsh, Prescott said
he confined his case to certain
dates because both Clark's per-
sonal and clerk bank accounts
were low at that time, making it
easier to trace the checks.
Lewis F. Bond, auditor who
directed the audit which found
alleged shortages in Clark's ac-
counts, was recalled to the stand

1O.-The entire business district

with destruction by fire which
caused damage estimated at more

said today.
Already the list is swelled with
candidates to represent the

tricts on the board, he said, and
the Berry E. Clark trial and the
road program must be disposed
of before consideration can be
given the commissionership.
Because the act passed by the
