That Martin A. Nelson of Austin, whom the
Republicans have endorsed their candidate for gov

make great governor In that position, however, it
is reasonable to expect better results where there is

Holding the position Of influence that we presume
they do 1t should be frequently impressed upon radio
news commentators that facts rather than dressing

understood to be such. We at times marvel at the min

for instance details that newspaper carries Last

tell about the Dinger affair in the Wisconsin woods,

It strikes us that family regulations have not been

After nine months of Public Works administra-

PSI 900 have been given work directly While
thousands more undoubtedly found work indirectly

calls how heartily the program was recommended, it
appears that the majority even now can be wrong.

There is growing resentment in rural areas

Opportunities come to everyone, but often the
greatest opportunities not be grasped because it
requires little ready money to enable to take
advantage Of them.
This point is emphasized by wellknown fnan-
cier, who in article thrift says: Those who be-
came leaders in the business world found the turning
point in their careers when they able to take ad
vantage Of great opportunity because they had the
money at hand. In most the sum of money in

As fusion between Democrats and Republicans
against the FarmerLabor program progresses it be-
comes more and more certain that the campaign this
summer fall will not deal in personalities but with
a-mportant issue: whether not Minnesota shall
attempt further state socialism.
Opposition to fusion seems to come from two
sources, diehards in both parties who don't feel free
TO vote for member Of the ether party though
his election is to their interest and from Democrats
who have played with the Farmer-Laborites so long
that split between the two is embarrassing.
Even in the office of representative and represent
ative-at-large, the platform adopted by the Olson
group will be the ISSUE Voters should weigh carefully
the attitudes of men seeking these Offices for the

but legislative Offices should be filed basis Of poll

Four hundred ten women enrolled in the home
economics projects started in Redwood county this
year. The classes crowded and others who wish to
join will be unable to because of the limited time OF
the instructor and limited funds available for the work.
The interest shown indicates thirst for further
training both among the young and the middle e-aged
which is highly commendabe. The increasing demand
for the work indicates that the method of instruction
is excellent.
Away to good start, it is probable that in an
other year opportunity be given to all to take
up such courses.
