early in Pine county this year. There
are now four candidates for nomina-
ton to sheriff, four for commissioner
in the Third district, and one candi-
date for nomination to commissioner
in the First district.
The latest to file was Earl Jamison
of Dell Grove township, who added
his name to the list of county CON-

trict, at the county auditors Office

INTERNATIONAL
NEWS REVIEW
BY GEORG STRANDVOLD

Today-with all the display of
pOmp and circumstance usual in such
cases-Albert, king of the Belgians,
will be buried in the presence of
nearly all the royalty of Europe. A
week ago no one in Europe was able
to foresee today's ceremony, for the
king enjoyed his usual good health,
and went about his daily work as ac-
lively and interestedly as he had done
it for years.
Yet, today he is to be buried, and
tomorrow his son, Leopold, will be
proclaimed his successor under the
name of Leopold the third.
Last Saturday afternoon King AL
bert went mountaineering near Ma
muir, not far from Brussels, and be-
gan, unescorted by any one, to ascend
a steep cliff; to protect himself
against fall into an abyss below,
he, apparently, sought support with
his hands on a frOst-bitten piece of
rock which crumbled- then he
fell SO feet-to his death. Hours
later he was found, and his body
brought back to the capital city; the
entire nation was plunged into pro-
found grief for King Albert had been.
in a sense unusual with kings, i'm
mensely popular among his own peo-
pie, universally admired by foreign
nations
Hero of War.
Albert, almost 50 years, had earned
the deep affection of the Belgian peo-
pie, for during it's hours of stress and
suffering as result of the invasion
Of the German legions in 1914 he
proved himself not merely loyal to
his country but also man possessed
of moral and military leadership to
high degree. He was. for a time,
what George Washington, whose birth
day anniversary is being honored in
the United States today, 1.-The first
in war, the first in peace, the first
in the hearts of his countrymen' as
he stood loyalty by his people in the
days of direst need, so he did in
peace-time when calm counsel and
sure judgment were needed. The Bel
gians knew they could always depend
on King Albert.
1t is said that his son. the 33-year-
old man who becomes king tomorrow,
has inherited most of the qualities
which endeared Albert to the people
of Belgium.
German Tribute.
During the early part of this week,
Dowager Queen Elizabeth received
messages of coincidence from practi-
cally all government heads. including
the president of the United States.
Even Germany, the mortal enemy of
Belgium not so many years ago, paid
official tribute to a man whom the
Germans could not help admiring
even though he were their foe; Of
fetal buildings in Berlin displayed
flags at half mast, President Paul Won
Hindenburg telegraphed condolences,
and Chancellor Adolf Hitler and his
government expressed to the Belgian
legation their sorrow.
Austrian Trouble.
A change of kings in Belgium does
not very likely precipitate any inter-
national trouble, although it must be
admitted that France was a little
nervous for few days on the ground
that Belgian socialists, in sympathy
with their fellow-partisans in Austria.
might bestir themselves unpleasantly;
as matter of fact, there were some
ominous rumblings, for a few hours
after the announcement of the death

birthday Is De1ng observed through
out the nation today.
1t was through the foresight. abil-
ity and fearlessness of Washington
and his associates that this nation
was made independent and although
he is generally regarded as a con-
sentative, he had many traits that
were decidedly progressive. One, for
instance, was the severing of the
bonds with Great Britain and en-
barking out on new and uncharted
course. His goal was obtained to a
high degree and this might be taken
into consideration now by the scep-
tics when they are about to criticise
progressive moves.

TEMPORARY STEPS TO
 CURTAIL PRODUCTION
(By The Associated Press)

CINCINNATI, Jan. P Elm ergency measures to curtail pro auction, Dr. Rexford. c. Tugwell, said, Friday night, were far from the basic policy of the Roosevelt administration in it's recovery plan. The assistant secretary of agriculture spoke before the stu dents of the university of Cincin- nati and a large audience. The steps taken to curtail production, he said, were purely temporary measures to get business moving. That accomplished the adm.nistra- ton hopes to re-adjust the agri- cultural and. industrial affairs, "in such way as to make available tu everybody the benefits of econ cmic mass production"
 He said the philosophy of the new deal was action. as opposed to the old order which let natural forces solve matters themselves. That all We needed to do was to sit tight, hold every thing. and wait results" He added that there has been mo attempt to bootleg alien politics or philosophies into our democracy"
