Nav Name Cannon
AS Relief Chief
Whitman County Banker Talked
Of As Successor To
Ernst

STATETIOUSE, Olympia, March
9 Reports current among
legislators today were that Senator
George H. Cannon, Whitman coun-
ty banker, would be appointed by
federal relief authorities to replace
Charles F. Ernst, state relief direc-
tor.
Cannon, democrat, and resi-
dent Of Pullman, is one of the
youngest senators, being Al years
old. Should he be named to the
position, the appointment would be
"going over" Governor Martins
head, as he, with the concurrence
of the emergency relief commits
sion and federal relief officials,
selected Ernst to head the VERA
setup two years ago.
Ernst has been under political
fire for some time by the entire
Washington congressional delega-
ton and liberal democrats of the
legislature. During the present SEES
sion, preliminary legislative in
vestigation was made of the VERA
and two reports made hurting num-
erous charges against the relief set
up.
Both house and senate this week
passed HJR IL, calling tor a six
months interim audit OF the WERA

Urge Fish Planting
At McCinnis
Lincoln Fishermen Asks That
Only Easter Brooks Be
~ Planted There

A set of resolutions relative to the
control and propagation Of fish and
game were adopted at a meeting OF
the Lincoln chapter of the Izaak
Walton league held at the Hotel
Alnira last Thursday evening.
Highlights of the resolutions urg-
ed the taking over of the Crab
creek hatchery, now privately own
ed, by the federal bureau OF fisher
les; the planting Of the kinds of fish
most suitably adapted to the waters,
in large numbers in many lakes;
the stocking of Maginnis lake only
with eastern brook trout; a uniform
fish and game season over the en-
tire state; the making legal game
of bucks having a spike four inches
long, and asking the passage by the
legislature of the bounty bill.
The league will pay for the bring
ing in of magpie eggs again this
season.
The committee reported that the
planting of wild rice should oe de-
ferred until fall.
+ A letter was read from the state
game department saying that fish
will be planted in both the Wilbur
and Ahnira rearing ponds.
A move which will undoubtedly
create much interest was The ap-
prevail of plan to offer prizes to
the Oranges that show a kill OF the
most number of predatory animals
and birds.
The planting of moss containing
shrimp for fish food was approved
and committees from Alnira and
Wilbur named to experiment with
this by placing several truckloads
in the different lakes.
The league voted funds TO pur-
chase several thousand trout fish,
several inches long, to be planted
in the San Poll river.-Almira

"YOu Bet Your Life"
"You bet YOUR life .

"You bet your life"
This favorite expression so often heard,
usually from the third or fourth grader, has
at last become a reality.
If you drive an automobile, if you oc-
casionally ride in someone elses car, or even
if you walk along the public highway, you
bet your life, seemingly, every few minutes.
In every other gamble there is sup
posed chance to win occasionally. You will
lose and try over again and so lose some
more. In this game you lose only once-you
won't have another chance.
You bet your life-When you pass car
while approaching the crest of hill.
You bet your life-When you pass car
on curve.
You bet your life-When you pass car
at crossing.
You bet your life-When you pass car
that is going to make left turn.
You bet your ife-When you pass car
anywhere that you can not see 500 feet
ahead of you an open road.
You bet your life-When you drive on a
highway without stopping, looking and
watching.
You bet your life-When you approach
side or crossroad at speed where you can
not stop inside the space where a car might
appear.
You bet your life-When you drive at a
speed so that you can not stop in case of a
blowout.
You bet your life-When you drive
along grade or ditch at a speed so you
can not stop if anything Happens"
You bet your life-When you meet a
drunken driver.
You bet your life-When you drink in
toxicants before or while driving.
You bet your life-When you make a
left turn without signaling.
You bet your ife-When you meet or
pass driver who cannot control his car.
You bet your Ife-When you cross a
railroad without stopping
You bet your life-When you drive fast
around sharp curve.
You bet your life-And you will never
,ose a second time.-Itasca County Inde-
pendent.

Fully Equipped

w TTH the completion of the state crime
w bureau radio station here and the or
ganization of police officers for con-
certed efforts against crime of all varieties,
southwestern Minnesota should be equipped
to handle almost any crime situation likely
to arise.
Principal weakness in our crime control
methods in the past has been the slowness
with which information has been supplied to
districts surrounding the area where the
crime was committed and the lack of sys-
tenn of mobilizing on many fronts to cut off
avenues of escape, as well as other plans for
cooperation between various officials.
The new station not only provides the
fastest possible method of spreading crime
alarms but it is new incentive and reason
to organize. Furthermore the fate of similar
stations which the crime bureau has in mind
for other sections of the state will depend,
when the matter is taken before the legis-
lature, on what actual results this station
can show to prove it's worth.
Redwood Falls is fortunate in being
the city chosen for the first more or less ex-
detrimental rural station in this state. Not
only will it be an important source of news
for local and metropolitan papers, keeping
the city in the news, but it will be interest
ing to watch the development OF this system
of apprehension.

Found: Honesty

n IOTHING revives our faith in human ma
~ ture like having person step into the
office with purse or perhaps even
loose bills which he has picked up where they
have evidently been lost and ask that we
assist in locating the rightful owner.
While anyone making such a find must
be tempted to pocket the money and say
nothing about it, we believe that in ma
jority of cases an honest attempt is made to
locate the owner. Sometimes this high type
of honesty and friendly interest in fellow
mans hard luck is noted in persons where it
might not be expected. Not many months
ago man who later served time because of
dishonesty turned in $13 in loose bills which
he found on the street. Obviously in spite
of his shortcomings, there is really good
streak in this man.

Tribute To Weeklies

Some of the late Will Rogers philoso-
phic and humorous paragraphs will go down
in literary history as masterpieces. And
perhaps one of the finest of these is his tri-
butte to the 'home town paper" one of his
last writings.
Take away my ham, take away my
eggs, even chilli" said Will, 'but leave me my
newspaper. Even if it has such purely local
news as Jim Jones came home last night
Unexpectedly, and bloodshed ensued' or
Jesse Bushyhead, our local M. D., is having
one of the best years of his career, practic-
ally speaking they just won't pay him
when they get WE'LL the county seat was
packed yesterday with prominent people
from out of town, attempting to renew their
notes and election amt far. off and every
body is up for office that can sign an appli-
cation blank
'Now all that don't seem much news to
you. But it is news to you, especially when
you know the people and they are your own
folks So no matter how punk you may
think your local newspaper is getting, why
just take it away from you and see how you
feel. The old newspaper, [ think, is just
about our biggest blessing. So let's all read
and be merry, for tomorrow the paper may
not have enough ads to come out. ut."-Journal-
Democrat, De Pere, Wisconsin.

Opportunity Knocks

DERSONS who take the opportunity af-
forded by The Gazette today to read
who won premiums at the Redwood
county fair will be impressed by the fact
that comparatively few people walk away
with great share of the prizes.
It is not unusual for one person to enter
exhibits in several divisions for large num-
ber of premiums and in somewhat fewer
cases, one herd of livestock makes a clean
sweep of prizes in it's class.
This is not the result of any popularity
of judges. It is not the plan or wish of the
fair board. It is even true that most of the
exhibitors would enjoy having more COM
petition. The fault seems to be that a
great many persons who could receive gen.
erous checks for few hours of spare time
work in getting exhibits ready are not awake
to the opportunity offered.

A Fair Warning

@ ENATOR Arthur Capper, Kansas Repub-
- ican, sounded fair warning note last
week when he said, eff the Republican
platform makers put the party on record
against the AAA, there will be little chance
of winning the farm belt back to the Repub-
lican column
While the average farmer can see some
glaring weaknesses in the AAA program, no
one realizes more fully than he that prices
of farm products are greatly improved and
that while compliance checks have been slow
in coming, they are mighty handy upon ar
rival. Suggested improvements will be list
ened to with an open mind but threats of
scrapping the whole thing for some untried
but supposedly better substitute will not be
readily embraced.
