C.C.C. CAMPS
INSPECTED
Capt. F. S. Doll Has Concluded
His Inspection of the Camps
in His District.

Captain F. s. Doll, in company with
Captain Kumm, has completed the in
spection of the ten CCC camps located
in his district and has made his re-
port. Captain Doll is commander OF
the sub-district comprising camps as
follows:
Company 701 at McDougall Lake.
Company 704 at Birch Lake.
Company ITO at Fenske Lake.
Company I'll at Portage River.
Company 713 at Lake jeanette.
Company 723 at Vermilion Dam.
Company 724 at Kabetogama Lake.
Company 725 at CusSon.
Company 1720 at Dunnigan Lake.
Company 1721 at Isabella.
In his report Captain Doll pays a
high compliment to the officers and
men of the camps when he stated: at
is highly gratifying to this Office Head
quarterS) to note the splendid results
by all companies in this sub-diStrict in
the formal critical inspections which
were conducted on various Saturdays.
In every case the standard is very
high. The standard was attained
through the untiring conscientious and
efficient efforts of Campany Com
manders, their officers, leaders and
assistant leaders, all men of the COM
panieS, and the splendid cooperation
given by the Forestry Superintendents
and their assistants, all Of whom are to
be highly congratulated. It is indi-
cative of a splendid degree of morale.
Each company was rated on several
points. The condition of the camps,
beds, cleanliness, general morale, con-
dition Of the clothing and appearance
of men as well as the cooks, mess halls
and meals were taken under consider
alton in making the inspection.
The ratings were based on 400 points
and embodied besides the above, leader
ship and initiative, camp administration
and operation and the ratings were
made on this basis.
First place was awarded to Camp 725
at Cusson. This camp rated 394 out Of
the possible 400. Second place was
awarded Camp 723 at Vermilion Dam
with 393 points. Camps 713 at Lake
jeanette, 70l at Lake Gegoka, 724 at
oba+opap,o TIL a. Doy+or,a D;v-o- o,5
704 at Birch Lake tied for the third
honor with score of 389 each. Fourth
honors went to Camp 71O at Fenske
Lake with 388 points, fifth to Camp
1720 at Dunnigan Lake with 387 points,
and sixth to Camp 1721 at Isabella with
382 points.
Captain Doll III closing his report
stated now that such high standard
has been attained it should be easy to
maintain with little persistent care"
and also stated that future inspections
viii be conducted along the same lines.
In closing he congratulated the Camps
and expressed his personal thanks.
Not only is such report gratifying
to the officers in charge but it also
speaks well for the men in the camps.
The people of this city, where many
Of them visit at intervals, feel that the
CCC movement is doing a noble work
and that many young man has been
taken from the streets and placed on
the road to manhood by his enlistment,
besides helping out his dependents.

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

A move is now being made
to adopt a code for the govern
ment to prevent government
enterprises from selling their
products below cost. As the
government is now engaged in
800 or more enterprises in COM
petition with private enter
prises, a code should also be
made for it.
The Ely miner., 1934-02-02

Emma Goldman has secured
permission to visit the United
States after being absent since
1919 when she with many
others was deported to Russia,
the Utopia of disgruntled citi-
zens of America. Emma was
an anarchist and it seems that
only about a year sufficed to
satisfy her in the land of the
Soviets and she made every eff
fort since then to get back. She
did succeed a few years ago in
getting back as far as Canada
where she has been living at
Toronto and is now known as
Mrs. James Cotton.
She will be allowed to enter
this country for a 90-day visit
with relatives. Permission was
given her for this short visit
by President Roosevelt after
her fifteen year absence. No
doubt she will be surprised over
changed conditions. One re-
quirement made of her by the
President is that she refrain
from making speeches. Mrs.
Cotton says she is through max
ing incendiary talks, but, there
are many who still are under
the impression that this is i'm
possible and the govern
ment will again be compelled
to button up the mouth of this
aggressive Goldman before her
ninety days are up.
No sooner was it known that
Emma was to be allowed to
enter the country for a visit,
up pops the Bergdoll case
again with the request to the
President that Grover Cleve-
land Bergdoll be allowed to
return from Germany and that
a pardon be granted him.
Bergdoll was the draft evader
who made his escape after
arrest and went to Germany
where he since has been a
fugitive. President Roosevelt
restored citizenship to 1900 as
a Christmas gift among whom
was Bergdoll's brother who had
served four years for draft
lodging. The case of the two
brothers is not alike. One
served his time to expiate the
infraction of the laws while the
other escaped from the officers
to the land of the enemy,
thumbing his nose at the u. S.
The request for a pardon is
made by. the aged mother and
no doubt will be granted with
reservations. The love of a
mother for her son will carry
the weight necessary for the
pardon and further substan-
tiates the saying that a mother
is thebest friend man ever had.

CORN IN DANCER
IN IOWA

The corn crop in Iowa is
struggling for existence, having
been revived by recent rains,
according to weekly crop re-
port. With rains at regu-
lar intervals a fair crop will
be made. Since the rains fell
some corn has been replanted,
and considerable has terminated
that has lain in dust for nearly 80
days, but in some localities the
rainfall did not penetrate deeply
enough.
Early planted corn is generally
making good growth, some of it
being knee high. Replanting now
can produce little more than
fodder. With favorable weather.
a good corn crop is still possible.
Large acreageS of oats have
been plowed up and planted to
fodder corn, as probably half the
oats crop will be a failure. Barley
has Jared little better than oats.
Chinch bugs are making a clean
sweep of small grains in many
localities.
Hay crops are complete failures
with the exception of alfalfa,
From six to eight weeks of favor
able weather conditions will be
needed to bring pastures back to
normal.

Steel Rate Rises
For YOUNGSTOWN

Steel plant operations in. the
Youngstown district rebounded
two points at mid-week to IS per
cent Of capacity, compared with
63 per cent Monday and 67 per
cent a month ago at the years
peak.
Two district plants are operat-
ing at a higher rate than called
for in tentative schedules an
nounced Saturday. Republic Steel
Corporation has added another
open-hearth furnace at the Ian
singville works, giving the plant
IS to IS open-hearths on the
active list and placing it virtually
at capacity. Youngstown Steel
and Tube Company is operating
its Campbell open-hearth works at
100 per cent with IL of IL open
hearths operating against 10 at
the weeks start.
The Washington times., 1934-06-15

gains in the group ran to nearly
point in a few instances. This
lifted Consolidated Gas, Peoples
Gas, Columbia Gas and several
other issues to their best levels in
some weeks.
Wheat staged a substantial re-
covery. Opening fractionally
higher the grain quickly extended
its gain to about cent a bushel.
Cotton rallied in sympathy and
converted an early loss of more
than so cents a bale into a gain
of about Is cents.
Loads Aid Rails
Expectations of substantial
pick up in car loading stimulated
the rails to renewed activity on
the upside. Atchison converted
an early fractional loss into an
equally large gain. New York
Central, Southern Pacific, South

priced issues participated in the.

Banker Lauds
Paper Ads

The American Institute Of
Banking was told today that
well presented newspaper ad-
vertising was known to be the
best medium for reaching the
public.
G. Fred Berger, treasurer Of
the NorristOwn-Penn Trust
Company of NOrristOwn, Pa,
made the assertion in urging
that banks conduct o well Or
ganized customer relation cam
paign through advertising and
publicity.
"Let the public know you and
your business If you would
minimize the danger Of bank
runs" he said in asserting this
was q lesson which should have
been learned from the bank
holiday in 1888. Banks which
were able to carry on during
that time, he said, derived their
strength from knowledge and
faith the public had in their
management and policies.

BETTER SCRAP
TONE IS SEEN

A somewhat better feeling ex-
lists in the market for steel scrap
in many of the leading districts.
While there has been no sign of
outstanding strength or an ad-
vancing trend, there is evidence
that the downward tendency
which prevailed up to a few
weeks ago has been halted for
the time being at least. What
develops in the future will depend
upon conditions in the finished
steel markets and the activities
of steel mills.
A few comparatively small
purchases were made by two
steel companies recently, but
aside from giving the market a
better tone in one or two dis
trictS, they have been without
general influence. Dealers are
not pressing stock for sale and

mand the prices have been hold
ing well in the past week.
One important factor at the
moment is the unwillingness Of
the steel companies to enter the
scrap market as buyers in view OF
labor uncertainties. This is not
unusual, for it is hardly likely
that the steel companies would
be inclined to enter purchasing
contracts as long as there is a
strike threat. In some scrap
quarters the belief is gaining
that with q settlement of the
steel labor controversy there is
likely to be a better demand for
the leading grades of scrap,

W44A4Cs
Tugwell came
through the '>><<
Senate hearing Lewis Haney
with eclat, and will be confirmed
aS Under Secretary Of Agriculture.
Many people will say that he
Is vindicated. Did he not say that
he liked many things in America?
Did he not disapprove Russian
methods?
When, however, one considers
Dr.. Tugwel's statements just a
little more carefully, one cannot
be 50 sure. think that the whole
story Is that he merely said in
effect: "I stand for what we are
foing under the New Deal-If
that be treason, my fellow Demo
Gratis, make the most of it,"
What he said about the Consti-
tuition was merely this: It is suf-
ficiently flexible" to allow us
New Dealers to do what we want
to do.
That amounts to saying that
the Constitution, as he sees it, is
so elastic" that it has no definite
meaning.
One kind Of "elasticity'' has
been created by the New Dealers.
For example, they have induced
or forced business men to enter
codes. Then they have held
that the business men cannot
attack the COnStitutiOnality of
code provisions!
Tugwell also testified that he
had learned to believe in some
American institutions. But he
did not specify, nor was he asked
to explain what institutions or
aspects of American life he does
not approve.
In short, he told the Senators
that he believed in the "flex-
utility of the Constitution, and
in some of our institutions.
As to Russia, one may disagree
with the kind Of planning they
do there and with some of their
3 practices, and still believe in
committee or cOllectivism. Many
Socialists bitterly attack the
Stain regime.
The Senators did not ask Tug
well whether he approved any
Of the Russian "experiment,"
and if so in what respect.
In general, the Tugwellian de-
tense was built around the Presi-
dent, which put the Democratic
and Progressive Senators in a
hole. He said he believed in the
kind of planning "the President
is talking about" He said, in ef-
feet, "See what we have done
under the New Deal. That is the
sort Of thing I stand for"
So apparently the Governments
building of towns with every
home equipped with an electric
refrigerator), the Government
operation Of m anuf a cturing
plants, the direct loans to business
by RF'C, the gifts of Federal
money to States for road build
ing, Government control over agri-
culture and bonuses to farmers,
and the initiation of our currency
by "silver certificates" s"-these and
much more, are to go on.
In short, Government "plan-
ming" for individuals, and bu-
reaucracy, are to go on. The
President himself has stated the
objective of providing "for Amer
ican families to live as Americans
should" and has called people
Childish" who think that we
must have business recovery first.
Two great dangers confront
us. The first is that, under the
alibi of experiments" all
this collectivist plan will be al
lowed to develop. The second
is that farmers, labOrerS, and
small home owners, will be
bribed by Government loans
and dOles to sit by while indi-
vidual initiative is stifled, and
the Constitution is ''flexed"
into a cooked hat.

The modern scene offers no

In such struggles both suffer

den of responsibility for such
strife always is hers.
