has built for the future while filling
a temporary need The latest tribute
to intelligent administration of the
relief program comes from G. H. Her
rOld, city engineer for the st. Paul
planning board, when he says that
information gathered by CWA workers
as to traffic, housing conditions, and
recreation activities will be used for
the next ten years in making planning
decisions in st. Paul. 1t is significant
to note that these projects were of the
type which drew the most fire from
CWA critics early in the winter as
unnecessary, futile work designed
only to furnish time-killers for needy
people"
1t is not many years ago that relief,
or what was mis-named public chart
ty, carried with it the condescending
shifts of those better situated. This
cruel and stupid attitude has changed
in very recent years into higher
concept of social responsibility. The
new attitude is well expressed in a
letter of instructions just sent out to
county workers by the division of di-
rect relief of the state emergency re-

With dry winds instead of rain and
practically no SuhSOil moisture re-
manning after three summers of pre-
cipitation far below normal, the i'm
mediate future looks dark for the
farmers and business men of west
central Minnesota, Vince Day, secre-
tary to the governor, reports after a
tour in that district. Conditions there,
Mr.. Day said, are even worse than
have been pictured. Relief, in the
form of feed for livestock, is made
quate and slow in arriving. Some
thing drastic has to be done to save
that region from complete ruin, in
Mr.. Days opinion.
One of the remarkable things about
CWA is that, despite it's temporary,
emergency nature, it accomplished
work of long-range, Worthwhile char
acter. 1t was recognized from the
beginning that CWA projects were Of
value to the community in supplying
needed employment and in accom-
plishing tangible, constructive i'm
prOvements in many varied lines.
Now, after analysis of the work,
thoughtful men recognize that CWA

having to join the Farmer1Labor party
and paying fee of $500 before get
ting a job has been proven utterly
false is in itself of no great moment.
On the face of it, the charges are
ridiculous and made out of whole
cloth. 1t is worthy of reflection, how
ever, that a person occupying SO i'm
portant position of public trust as
does the senator, should be so amaz-
ingly careless with the truth.
Those who are criticizing the three
per cent voluntary salary contribution
of Farmer-Labor office holders to the
Farmer-LabOr association for cam
paign purposes are talking little too
fast. A school child knows where
campaign funds come from. Is it bet
ter that these funds come from the
rank and file office holder as a volun-
tary contribution than it is that they
come from trusts and corporations
and others who expect some service
from government in return? One of
the evils of our American government
is that the moneyed interests are able
to gain contol through campaign con-
tributiOnS.

office will not tolerate an unsympa-
thetic attitude toward relief clients.
The applicant may be unreasonable,
he may be overly persistent; he may
be outrageous in his demands. Regard
less of his approach and his attitude,
our workers must maintain reason

a disposition to assist and help the

but it must be genuinely human"

State Capitol News

The Newspapermen's Guild of the
Twin Cities. and George Bradley, state
tourist commissioner, are attempting
to bring the first convention of the
National Newspapermens Guild to
Minnesota. The guild, a recently
formed organization, is comprised of
newspapermen from throughout the
country. Nationwide publicity for
Minnesota would result.
The state, up to this writing, has
realized over a half million dollars
from the liquor tax. The proceeds from
this tax are to be used in carrying out
Governor Olson's $5.O0O,OOO relief bill
program. This probably is disappoint-
ing to some of the opponents of the
relief measure, who predicted that
the liquor tax would not be of suf-
ficient amount to carry the relief law.

Democratic Town Chairman John H. Crary today received off, | cial notification of the fact thai the party's county convention, to
 nominate shrievalty candidate , will be held in West Haven this Saturday. Constable James E. O'Leary of this city. one of the two leading candidates for the democratic nomination of high sheriff, stated today that he felt confident of being named the can didate at the session.
 The convention will be called to order by Thomas F. Reyes of West Haven. The session will open at o'clock in Democratic hall on Campbell avenue, opposite the West Haven Green.
 ven county today came the report that out of the 2ae delegates who will vote, J. D. Slavin of Milford felt he was assured of more than majority. This report, however. failed to daunt the Waterbury man who four years ago withdrew from the race for the nomination in the interest of harmony. At that time High sheriff James w. Ged- des. republican incumbent. won by the close margin of c little over 900 votes
 Waterbury's 90 delegates to the county convention will vote as 6
 unit for Constable O'Leary. The
 local man is also understood to
 have considerable support in va. rious towns throughout the county.
