Scout Cub Packs
To Be Organized
Outlet for Youngsters From Nine
to Eleven Years-Headquart-
ers viii Be I'm This City.

Sank Centre occupies first place
in the Clubbing program of the Cen
trail Minnesota Boy Scout area
which comprises twelve counties,
by reason of action taken at tine
executive council meeting Tuesday
evening at Little Falls.
A cub committee report, consist
ing largely of clubbing Information
from Sank Centre, was presented to
the council and unanimously
nassed. This motion recognizes cub.
bling and cub packs can now be or
ganized anywhere in the area under
required conditions.
Sank Centre has had a cub pack
for a year and half but the Cen
trail Minnesota Council could not
recognize this pack and grant them
a charter. This has been consid-
cradle handicap, nevertheless the
pack has maintained its organiza-
ton and now with the added i'm
petus of an official charter, it will
have a much greater stimulus for
continuing.
Rev. J. D. Butler, a man of fifteen
years experience in Scouting, Is the
cubmaster. Mr.. Butler has at all
times been thoroughly sold on
Scouting, has been actively engaged
as q Scoutmaster or Scout leader
for many years prior to his coming
to Sank Centre, hence he had all
the Scouting experience necessary
to conduct this program. In his re-
port Of the cub work, Rev. Butler
stated that of all the work he has
done with boys (and this includes a
GREAT deal of other activities outside
of Scouting), the clubbing program
brings the best results, because y to
IL wear old boys are more respon-
sive. receptive, pliable and plastic.
The clubbing program is sponsored
by the Boy Scouts Of America, ana
is a part of its program although
the cub packs and Scout troops arg
entirely separate organizations ana
operate upon a different basis. The
cub program can be said to be to-
tally different from the Scout pro-
gram. It deals more with Indian
lore and games, is more Of an after
school program than an evening

Farmers Start

Sign-upSoon
First Meeting at Sank Centre
Wednesday, January
Twenty-fourth -
COMPLETE SCHEDULE.
At Padua, Raymond Town
Hall, January 25th at
F. 1000 A. M.

Will Stearns county farmers go
on producing corn and hogs at the
rate they have been producing
them for the last few years, or
will they, in response to the ap-
peal of the Agricultural Adjust
ment Administration, curtail their
production of these commodities to
fit the existing demand?
The answer to this question will
be found in the outcome of the
corn-hog reduction campaign which
is now being conducted in this
county, and which will come to a
climax this week when farmers
will be given opportunity to sign
the Administrators corn-hog re-
duction contract.
For the last two weeks, educa-
tional meetings have been held in
every part of the county. The
need for corn-hog reduction has
been explained to farmers by the
county agricultural agent and mem.
bers of the county corn-hog organi-
zation committees. Farmers who
did not attend these meetings have
had opportunity to learn the de-
tails of the plan from members of
the community corn-hog organiza-
ton committees. The newspapers,
the farm press, and the radio ALL
have done their part in publishing
Information about the plan.
Beginning Wednesday, Jan "a,
sign-up day will be held at Sank
Centre, and on succeeding days,
meetings will be held at every
trade center in the county. On these
days, the county agent, community
committeeman and staff of spec
tally trained workers will be avail
able to help farmers fill in their
contracts. At that time, farmers
either may sign as applicants, in
which case they will have the priv
ilege of rejecting the contract when
adjustments have been made in
their production figures by the
county allotment committee, or
they may accept all provisions of
the contract, including adjustments
which may be made later in their
production figures. The latter pro-
cedure will shorten considerably
the time required by the Admins
tration to make the individuals
first benefit payment.
! Farmers are urged by the county
agent to appear on "sign-up" day
at the places appointed for their
respective districts, and to bring
with them their contract forms,
filed out to the best of their abil-
ity. Following is a schedule of
these sign-up days:
January "a, Sank Centre, $3.50 A.

In the provinces, one-third of the
seats were being contested.
The elections climaxed weeks Of
strenuous campaigning which, while
generally modelled on purely local
issues, also reflected broadly the prin-
ciples dividing the national Labor
and Conservative groups.
The Conservatives, Joined by Lib
erals and other smaller groups, based
their campaign largely on taxation,
contending the rate is higher, often
times without visible result, in prac-
tically all boroughs where Labor is
In control.
Conservatives and their coalition
partners went under variety of
names. In London they were known
as Municipal Reform, while elsewhere
they chose names such as the Civic
Reformers and the Ratepayers Asso-
Citations
The Conservatives plugged away at
the rate question, housing and re-
lated public welfare work. The
Workers party, in many cases ad-
mitting taxes were higher, argued the
higher rates were justified by results.

DENVER Colo. December g.
Claims that the 100000 robbery at

been solved were followed today by
a move to bring Harvey Bailey, outlaw
and kidnaper, to Colorado on charge
OF murder.

Bailey now is serving sentence at
Alcatraz Prison for the kidnapping of
Charles F. Urschel, Oklahoma oil

driver of the motor car used by the
robbers.
Clark said he also would try to
bring to trial here, on murder charge,

a BILLION DROP
IN SALES REPORTED
Retail Trade Shows Big De-
cline Over Figure for
1929.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
How hard the depression hit both
the customer and the store was shown
by a Census Bureau report today in
dicating a drop of more than S24,-
O00000,000 in retail sales in 1888 as
compared to 1929.
There were 1,526,119 retail stores
In the United States during 1888 and
they sold s25,037 ,225,OOO worth Of
goods, supplying employment for s.
433,682 persons.
This, the Census Bureau said, dis
closed there was a 40 per cent drop
In value of sales as compared with
the 1929 total of $40, 114,653, 900. Full
time employment dropped from g.
1913 581 persons in 1929 to 2,703, 1925
in 1893, but part time employment
increased from 569,359 to 730,327.
Employers Work.
At the same time the number OF
employers working in their own estab-
Iishments increased in the compare
tive period from 1,510,607 to 1,574,34l.
Just how much the decreased value
of sales was due to lack of purchas-
ing power and how much to lower
prices, the bureau could not estimate.
1t was pointed out. however, that the
index of food prices compiled by the
Department of Labor was 1867 in
1929 against 99.7 in 1888, drop of
364 in four years.
Gas Stations Hold Own.
While the retail volumes value de-
creased almost half between 1929 and
1888 several businesses declined COM
paratively little. The number of gas
oline filling stations increased $4,000
in the four years and the sales vol
ume of 81 .531, 724,0 900 was only IA per
cent less than the 1929 sales volume.
Filling station sales constituted 6.12
per cent of the total retail sales OF
the country as compared with 3.64
in 1929.
New York. Pennsylvania. Illinois,
California Ohio, Michigan, Massachu-
sets. Texas, New Jersey and Mis-
souri, led in volume of retail sales in
