SPEED RECORD
SET IN CHANGE
OF ROAD SIGNS

A speed record was set by the
Maintenance division of the Mime
sofa Highway department last week
when it made a complete change of
state route markers on 1000 miles
of trunk roads in less than one day.
The change-over was Occasioned by
REMEMBERING of the enlarged system
and also by the adoption of the stan
dard black and white color combina-
ton for route markers, replacing
Minnesotas previous black and yell
low signs. When motorists went to
bed the night of May 3 the 11.OOO
miles of trunk roads were marked
with the old numbers in black and
yellow. BY noon May 4 eighty per
cent of the system carried the new
numbers in the new colors. The
change was finished before nightfall.
Careful planning of the change
over long in advance made the quick
change possible. With ordinary
methods the work would have re-
quired weeks to complete.

NEWS REVIEW
Ry GEORG STRANDVOLD

A few days ago diplomatic repre-
sentatives of group of American
nations signed at Buenos Aires what
is known as the Argentine Antl-War
pact which simply means that the
signatories agree to respect the Brl-
and-Kellogg treaty as we'll as otner
international conventions aiming at
the preservation of peace; countries
which did not sign on this occasion
had already some time ago affixed
their signatures:
There are two peculiar features in
this connection: One is that it should
be thought necessary for nations to
agree to respect treaties which they
have, individually, agreed to respect
at the time they were negotiated-in
other words, sign treaty in order to
respect treaties already signed; the
other is the pathetic circumstance
that Paraguay and Bolivia, bloodily
at war with one another in the Gran
Chaco, are among the signers of this
new inter-American instrument; while
they fight, they agree, to maintain
peace!
Disarmament.
Norman H. Davis, head of the Unit
ed States delegation to the disarma-
ment conference at Geneva, returned
to Washington the other day; he was
very pessimistic about the outcome
of the movement to reduce and limit
ornaments, and publicly stated that
he was inclined to hold France re-
Sponsible for the grand failure so fan
registered.
From Geneva, cablegrams have
come indicating that at the League OF
Nations general secretariat it has al
Last dawned upon some distinguished
gentlemen that a regular ornaments
race is now in progress. Readers OF
these weekly surveys may recall that
the existence of such an ornaments
race has been pointed out time and
again; the League of Nations and the
daily press have now finally discov-
cred it or, perhaps, have been reluc.

Farewell Party
To HinckLey Man

Pine county has lost its outstanding
gladioli raiser and Hinckley one of
its popular ministers of the gospel
in the removal the first of this month
of Rev. T. j. E. Wilson to Interna-
tional Falls where he was transferred
by his conference. Approximately 100
people gathered in the American Lee
gion hall in Hinckley Monday eve
ming to honor Rev. Wilson in a fare
we'll party terminating 20 years of
service to the community and sur
rounding neighbOrhood. Not only
Hinckley, but from Pine City on the
south to Moose Lake on the north
and to points on the 500 Line from
Moose Lake, the territory was served
at intervals by him. Two new church
buildings were built in the district
during his pastorate and have been
made free from debt.
Rev. Wilson has always taken an
active interest in all enterprises for
community upbuilding and betterment
and was prominent in fraternal orders
and up to the time of his leaving
was president of the garden club al
Hinckley.
Rev. Wilson made use of his flower
raising in making others happy and
he had made it an annual occasion
to have people gather from all over
his mission on the third Sunday in
August to enjoy picnic dinner in
his gladioli field and have them carry
home all they cared to.
While friends throughout this Sec
tion will regret his leaving, they will
join in the extension of best wishes
| in his new field of endeavor.

NJ CARL LEARNS
ABOUT COWS

Fancy COWS require more serv-
ice than ordinary COWS.
Consequently the attendants Of
the test cows at the BeltSville ex.
pertinent station of the Depart
ment Of Agriculture get $3.50 a
day, and those who look after the
ordinary "herd" COWS get $3.50.
All this Comptroller General j.

attention in connection with the
plan of the Secretary Of Agricul-
ture to eliminate an intermediate
grade Of $3.75 paid to one en-
ploye who vacillated back and
forth between the test COWS and
the herd cows. It was the Secre-
tary's idea that he could stagger
the jobs among the attendants,
paying the latter $3.50 on days
when they were assigned to act as
Jeeves to the fancy cows, and
$3.50 on the other days.
The Secretary wanted to know
if the economy act would permit
that and Mr.. McCarl says it will,

changes in the code as it affects
Washington are being considered
by the NRA, according to recov'

Members of the industry say
the Capital is the only city Of
