Governor Olson was among the first
governors of the nation to recognize
that there is a need for a definite

State Capitol News
BY A. 1. HARRIS

According to a statement issued by
T. Edmonds, regional director for the
F'ERA, the cost of administering pub
lie relief in Minnesota through the
SERA is less than the national aver
age for states. Mr.. EdmOnds stated
that funds are being expended eco
nomically in Minnesota and that a
trained personnel renders efficient
service.
Very few of the liquor stores in
the Twin Cities can duplicate the
stock of wine, beer, whisky and cord
ials held by the office of the state
liquor control commissioner. In a
burglar-proof. fire-proof vault is
stored the intoxicants seized by the
state from convicted bootleggers.
Commissioner Arundel is in quite a
quandary as to what to do with this
as no provision has been made by law
for its disposal. At present he is
quizzing the attorney generals office
for an opinion as to whether or not
the seized goods may be sold at an
auction, the proceeds to go to the
state.
Visitors who have not been in St.
Paul for the past three months are
astounded over the change around the
state office building. With federal
relief monies, the side streets on the
north and south of the building have
been widened and repaved to add
beauty to the capitol grounds. At
the personal instigation of Governor
Olson, the capitol landscape has been
Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1934-11-15

improved by the addition Of shrub
berry, flowers and trees during the
last two years. The lawn has also
been revitalized and what was once
rather bare plot of ground even
now in the fall is green and luxuriant.
The cooperative market in Mime
apolis. set up during the strike last
summer by the State Department OF
Agriculture so that farmers could
vend their produce undisturbed. is
meeting with great success. A move
ment is on foot to build a co-opera-
tive building there with federal
money.
1t is rumored that a number of
citizens have failed to pay their in
come tax and that steps will be taken
by the tax commission to hurry these
delinquent payments.
When it drew up the liquor tax bill,
the Legislature last winter estimated
that it would bring in $2.O00.O00 an
nually to the state. Up to date. ac-
cording to David r. Arundel, liquor
commissioner in charge of liquor tax
collections, that sum has been eX-
ceeded by 100000 with still a month
and half to go before the first year
of repeal is over. This revenue gees
for drought relief

With the advent of the big game
hunting season this week, the Mime
sofa Conservation Commission in ses-
sion in st. Paul over the weekend,
called attention to the fact that the
worst enemy of rural life in northern
Minnesota are the forest fires that
sweep over many sections annually"
Fires do untold damage to young
trees, take away the soil covering and
kill large quantities of game and fish,
it was pointed out. Hunters are urged
to exercise added caution because Of
the hundreds of CCC workers who
are now in the woods where deer
may be hunted.
Taxpayers of Clay county were as
sured by the Governor that they
would not have to bear the expenses
of prosecuting the directors of the
Incorporation whose trial takes
place in Moorhead this month. In a
letter to James Clarity, county at
torney of Clay county, Governor Olson
said that funds which were apprOpri-
ated by the Legislature to investigate
and prosecute the Banco officials will
be used to defray expenses of the
trial Trial of ]. C. Thomson, presi-
dent of the corporation, is scheduled
for approximately November 10Th.

More and more, public sentiment
seems to be swinging away from the
once popular notion that regulation
of motor vehicle speeds on public
highways is of only minor import
ance. According to officers of the
state highway patrol, the trend among
students of traffic safety is to indict
speed as the primary cause of most
fatal automobile accidents. E. Ray
mond Cato, chief of the California
highway patrol, makes this statement:
Fatalities increase in something like
geometric proportion with the speed
of the vehicle at the time of the
collision" This condemnation of ex-
cessive speed bears out conclusions
of the Minnesota patrol that driving
too fast is unquestionably one of the
most common causes of serious high
way accidents.
In a letter to the attorney gen.
erals office, the city attorney of Two
Harbors stated that the municipal
coal and ice systems of the city had
furnished residents with coal and ice
at much lower costs than would have
otherwise been possible. In his let
ter the city attorney requested an
opinion regarding the necessity of
submitting the municipal coal and
ice companies to regulation of MIRA
