The Reform Committee said the Se,-

cases with a loud noise" and that:
your committee finds that the Sena-

entity does not want to uncover any
situation similar to that of insult or
Kreuger, but apparently wants to sat
isfy the public with few headlines
and with as much lethargy as the pub
Lie will tolerate"
At about the same time that the let
ter was circulated, Chairman Norbeck
of the Senate Banking Committee re-
ceiyed a letter of resignation from
David A. Olson of New York, who has
been special investigator for the

attempt to "whitewaSh" Wall Street, but
said he would have a statement later

Commercial Club
In Fine Meeting

At the Tuesday meeting Of the Com
mercial Club several committees re-
ported on activities during the past
month
A delegation appeared before the
Club and asked for financial help for
the Boy Scout movement which has
reached a stage to make this necessary.
The Club cheerfully granted the request
and viii assist to the extent Of $3.50.
So far the Boy Scouts have financed
the activities Of its 125 members with
the personal funds and donations re-
ceived from the business men. Econ
omic conditions made this hardship
and it was the opinion that a little help
from the city through the Commercial
Club would keep the customary pep in
this creditable organization.
DR.. Newgord and Sig Olson, who at
tended the Minneapolis hearings on the
Backus dam application, reported at
length on the proceedings.
It was decided to send out a ques-
tionnaire to those who had planted
wild rice furnished by the Club and
get line on the probable success Of
the paintings. Several verbally re-
ported on the rice proposition and the
increase of the duck population on this
account. BY getting the reaction of
the combined group of planters some
thing concrete may be arrived at for
future guidance
In the absence of President George
Somero, Vice President Jos. Rothman

According to that the teams are very
much evenly matched with the result
of the game having chance to end in
a deadlock But the game will most
likely end in a decision owing to the
fact that both teams feature a versatile
attack which threatens to score on
every play.
Both teams boast of a forward wall
that packs lot Of weight with Gil
bert having slight edge on the beef
with Ely making up for it in speed and
alertness. That the Ely line has speed
and is alert is atsested TO by their work

backs that can go places. In punting

Ask Assistant Director
From Northern MINI.

The Arrowhead Sportsmen's ASsoci-
alton, in letters written by its president
j. j. Boldin of this city, to the Mime
sofa Conservation Commission and
Governor Olson, is urging the appoint
ment of the assistant director of the
division of game and fish from North
eastern Minnesota, the vacancy being
caused by the recent resignation of
Louis Enstrom. A resolution TO that
effect was adopted at the last meeting
of the association held at Chisholm.
The Association feels that North
eastern Minnesota, the heart of the
game and fish country, should be re-
cognized with this Office for maximum
administration, results. cooperation and
harmony It also believes that a nor
thern Office of the game and fish should
be established and maintained in
charge of the assistant director for the
proper administration and development
of wild life in the northern part Of the
state.
The selection of the assistant di-
rector from Northeastern Minnesota
should bring the department in closer
contact with the conditions and needs
of the northern part of the state
This area has men eminently fitted
and qualified for this position and is
the logical place to fill the vacancy.
