Still Hopeful on
Fire Sufferers Bill.

A message to the Alp from Washing
ton of the last of the week says that
friends of the Minnesota fire sufferers
bill, defeated week ago in the house,
are not yet ready 10 give up the fight
for payment of claims which has been
almost constantly before Congress since
the great disaster in Cloquet in 1918.
They are hiding their time in hope
the opposition may be worn down so
the measure can be reported out of
committee under a special rule The
senate passed the Shipstead bill carry
ing claims of more than $1,000 900, but
the house turned down the bill on a roll

jority. Proponents of the measure are
hopeful the issue can be decided by a
majority vote, which Is unusual pro-
cedure under house rules for corsidera-
ton of private claim bills.

1t pleases us immensely that
our friend, DIR. Preston Bradley,
was reelected as president of
the Izaak Walton League at the
convention held in Chicago last
week. Not only are we
pleased personally, but the
entire northern Minnesota sec
tion of the playground of a
Nation" is pleased with the re-
turn to the presidency of DIR.
Bradley, who, during his term
of office, has never lost an op-
portunity in any of his talks, of
saying fine things of our sec
ton and its people. His radio
word pictures of the beauties
of Lake Vermilion, where he
has spent his summers for the
past fifteen or more years, have
attracted worldwide attention.
Not only have we been recog-
nized but the League gained a
new lease of life when DIR.
Bradley was elected as it's head.
The reelection will further re-
dound to the credit of the or
ganization.

COMMITTEE IS
Open MINDED
Highway Study Group Will
Base Recommendations on
Basis of Facts.

Fred Schilplin, publisher of the St.
Cloud Times and chairman of the
Citizens Interim Highway Committee
authorized by the last legislature, has
issued the following statement regarding
the aims of the committee:
"It has come to the attention of the
Citizens Interim Highway Committee
that information has been circulated to
the effect that this committee is de-
termined upon plan to incorporate
township and county roads in the state
highway system. This is not true. The
Citizens Interim Committee is a fact
finding body and the committee has
not any preconceived ideas as to the
recommendations to be made.
Through the cooperation of the
Bureau of Public Roads of the Federal
government, through a CWA project
and with the valuable assistance and CO.
operation of the State Highway Depart
ment, this committee is now engaged in
making a survey which will give definite
information as to the number of miles
of road in the state, their classification
as to state, county and township, sources
of revenues, and cost of construction
and maintenance of same.
''The committee is pursuing the only
logical course and that is to make a
careful study of the whole road mileage
and revenues and on the basis of such
a careful study consider increasing the
responsibilities of the state as indicated
by such a study and ascertain whether
it will be possible to relieve real estate
Of portion of the township and county
road costs it is now carrying Our
committee has set about in an orderly
way to gather the facts, study them
carefully and having made such a
study prepare a report and such recon-
mendations to the Legislature as may
seem wise and the facts will warrant.
The Committee also has no hesitation
in stating that the facts ascertained
thus far in the partial study that has
been made would indicate that it is
neither advisable nor possible at the
present time to incorporate town and
county roads into the state trunk high
way system. This committee is going
to deal with facts and not theories.
"AlSo, after it has assembled its
statistical and other information and
made study, public hearings will be
held at which all those interested can
be heard in order that the committee
through this means may be guided and
aided In dts report"

Applications for drivers licenses will
not be accepted from persons who have
never driven a motor vehicle, j. p.
Johnson, clerk of district court, said
Saturday after receipt of ruling from
the license division of the state high
way department.
Persons must learn to drive an auto
mobile in company with an experienced,
licensed driver, the ruling stated. The
highway department has instructed
police officers not to bother any one
learning to drive when accompanied by
licensed driver.
When learning to drive, persons are
requested 10 do their driving on streets
and roads on which traffic Is Light.

On This
Occasion
Just few thoughts by the Editor
on things Material and Immaterial.

The larger advertisers have
discovered that there is no SUBJ
stitute for newspaper space.
The newspaper goes into the
homes of the people and the
reader interest guarantees that
it is read by the whole family
while the bedroom printed
sheet is hurriedly glanced at
and thrown in the wood box or
gutter. 1t is true that the ad-
vertising sheet goes into the
home in many cases not
reached by the newspaper but
the homes that have no news
paper or magazines do not
offer very great markets for
merchandise.

Governor PrOcLainis
Conservation Week.

Official endorsement has been ac-
corded Minnesota Conservation Week,
April % to May 5, by Governor Floyd
B. Olson, who also designated Friday,
May 4th, as Arbor and Bird Day. In
his proclamation, Governor Olson urged
that organizations, schools, churches
and civic groups cooperate with ap-
propriate programs pointing to the
value of the conservation and restora-
ton as far as possible of the natural
resources.
I'VE have come to a realization that
even now steps must be taken to con-
serve the water resources of our state"
Governor Olson said. "a national con-
science has been aroused to the need
of retaining our denuded forest areas,
prevent the destruction of the fertility
of our soil by erosion and the protection
and propagation of our wild life re-
sources all reflected in a federal pro-
gram of conservation on a scale never
attempted before in this or any other
nation"
Minnesota shares in this national
program and has thousands of men at
work to improve and reclaim our forest
lands and correct eroded areas"
Through conservation planning We
not only add to the wealth of our state,
preserve its natural aesthetic attributes
and promote recreational facilities but
we give hope and encouragement to
thousands of our citizens who are
forced to seek public relief because of
lack of EMPLOYMENT"

Senator George Sullivan of
Saltwater led the argument and
was supported by Attorney
General Peterson before the
house committee on banking
and currency when that body
voted to approve giving states
the right to tax national banks
on the same basis as state
banks. The delegates return
ing from the Republican state
conference said they missed
Senator Sullivan's logic and
clear-cut address at the con-
vention. He was at Washing
ton winning a victory for the
state. The senator has a
happy faculty of never starting
anything he cannot finish.

It is expected that the an
nouncement made by Attorney
General Harry Peterson on
Friday that he was considering
the ACCESSIBILITY of filing as a
candidate for chief justice of
the supreme court will create
somewhat of a tempest in
Farmer-Labor ranks. To file
for this position now held by
Chief Justice John P. De-
vaney, an appointee of Gov
ernor Olson, would strain the
friendship of Attorney General
Peterson and Governor Olson.
The tranquil course of the re-
cent FL. convention was
broken into by the act of one
G. H. Griffith, chief state oil
Inspector and close friend of
the Governor, to block Peter
sons endorsement by the con-
vention. Although unsuccess-
full, the attempt is looked upon
as a plan to ease out the at
torney general because of his
opposition to the management
of the Farmer-Labor Leader,
the official party organ.
