In suit. filed in Federal District
Court here late yesterday by District
Attorney Joseph Chitwood under the
direction of the Attorney General of
the United States, the Government
asked q temporary injunction to halt
erection Of the big dam in Pulaski
County near Radford, pending a
hearing in the matter, and also an
order enjoining the Appalachian from
further operations after the final hear
ing unless license is obtained.
In affixing his signature to copies
of the bill, prepared in Washington,
Mr.. Chitwood said he was doubtful
that the suit can be heard at the
next term Of court scheduled to start

mature for 20 days.
In its suit, the Government contends

NEW ULM TEAM,
COACHES CHOICE,
COMING FRIDAY

The coaches choice as tenth
district basketball champions, the
New Ulm cagers will meet the
Redwood Falls Cardinals in re-
turn game Friday night in the
Lincoln school auditorium.
Unimpressive in their 1910 vic
tory over the Cards earlier in the
season and none too successful
against other opponents, the po-
tential champions finally justified
the coaches predictions by sur
prising the heretofore undefeat-
ed Sleepy Eye Indians with a
17-15 victory last Friday night.
A Junior High game scheduled
for 7:3O, will precede the main
tilt, with the Junior Cardinals
seeking to atone for the only
blotch on their record which the
New Ulm Juniors handed them
last month. At that time, how
ever, the Redwood Falls quint was
without the services of two of its
star performers, who are expect
ed to be ready to start Friday

Move Started For Lighted
Field for All Kinds
of Athletics
Mayor Comments FavOrably
Committee to Consider
Proposal

Appearing at the city council
meeting Monday night as repre-
sentative of the American Legion
post, Glenn R. Hillig petitioned the
council to purchase land in or on
the edge of town to be used as a
municipal athletic field, stating
that there has been considerable
agitation in various circles in re-
ference to the need for such a
field.
Civic organizations in the city,
Mr.. Hillig said, will be asked to
work together in a movement to
bring about an athletic plant,
which according to tentative plans
would include a football field and
kittenball field with bleachers and
lights for night games, practice
football field and cinder track
circling the main gridiron. The
kittenball field would be used as
an ice rink during the winter.
With the land made available,
Mr.. Hillig stated, the organiza-
tions working in cooperation with
the school would undertake sub
scription for funds for necessary
equipment and other expenses.
Plans call for 40 reflectors for the
night lighting which could be OBJ
tanned for $114. The reflectors in
mind were used at the Worlds
Fair in Chicago in 1888 and 1884.
There is a possibility of obtaining
ERA labor for grading and other
work, Mr.. Hillig stated. The Red
wood Falls Light and Power COM
pany has offered to install the
lights free of charge.
'If every one would pitch in to
bring about the realization of this
athletic field" Mr.. Hillig said, "it
would prove an asset to the city
and would more than pay for it
self with the ultimate increase in
attendance at athletic events"
Commenting that "such thing
would be an advantage to any
town." Mayor Lynn, referred the
matter to the ways and means
committee for consideration. Sew
eral sites are under consideration
for the field, for which about five
acres would be required.

COMMISSIONERS
CHARTER VERDICT
AWAITS HEARING
Bank Charter Decision to
be Announced After
February 19

Reliable information received
this week from St. Paul indicates
that the banking department will
announce no decision on the appli-
cation for charter for the
Peoples State bank until after the
hearing for the Redwood County
State bank which is scheduled for
February 10 at II a. m. at the
offices of the commission.
The Peoples State bank applica-
ton was heard last week and it
is quite generally believed that it
would have been granted had it
not been for the other applicant.
Being the first to file a claim, the
Peoples State bank sponsors are
believed to have the best chance
to secure a charter although if
sufficient reasons are advanced
the commission might be induced
to grant the Redwood County
State banks request instead. It
is practically certain that not
more than one new bank will be
authorized here.
A. P. Garnatz of Vernon Center
and j. T. Peterson of LIE Sueur
are seeking the charter for the
Redwood County State bank while
Fred L. Christians, Charles w.
Sterling and j. A. Erickson Jr.,
all Of st. Paul, filed the first ap-
plication.

IMMEDIATE Cash
BONUS PAYMENT
INDORSED HERE
Mitchell and Clague Speak on
Subject at Servicemen's
Meeting Friday

Immediate cash payment of the
veterans bonus was urged Friday
night by two speakers, one state
department commander of the
American Legion, the other a for
mer United States congressman,
in addressing Is persons, the ma
jority servicemen, at the Legion
hall.
The speakers were William R.
Mitchell of Tracy, State Legion
commander and Frank Clague of
Redwood Falls, former congress
man from the old second district.
Asserting that Withholding of
the bonus is an injustice to the
men who offered their lives to
their country, Commander Nit
chell asked that all legislative
pressure possible be brought to
bear on pushing the approval of
the bonus payment through Con-
gress.
Mr.. Mitchell, stated that pay
ment of the bonus would bring
about SO million dollars into Min
nesota and approximately $685.
600 to Redwood county. About 135
veterans in Redwood Falls would
benefit from the payments, he
said.
The state commander also listed
amounts which would pour into
neighboring counties, they were:
Brown county, $436, 900; Blue
Earth, $63O,0O0 and Cottonwood,
$275, 900.
Agreeing with Commander Nit
chell that the bonus should be paid
Immediately, Mr.. Clague added it
is a debt, payment of which would
be most welcome to the veterans
at this time as many are unem-
ployed or have contracted large
debts. eff the money were paid
he stated, at would help tide the
boys over during this depression.
MANY already have loans up to
SO per cent of their certificates"
Mr.. Clague continued, "and by
1945 (the date set by the govern
ment for the bonus payment) af-
ter interest on these loans has
been paid, nothing win remain"
The former congressman con-
cluded that the bonus should be
paid with sound money such as the
government meets its other debts
and not by currency imitation.
Frank Baldwin, commander o1
the Redwood Falls post presided
and Leon II. Brown introduced the
speakers. Doughnuts and coffee
were served following the talks
and cards were played.

Dispensary
Ernest Weber Chosen as
Street Commissioner
Monday Night

At lengthy session Monday
night, the city council appointed
W. A. Hauck as operator of the
municipality owned off sale liquor
store, sanctioned by the recent
city election and authorized the
city to enter into contract to
lease the west section of the
Stensvad Motor company as To-
cation for the dispensary.
Mr.. Hauck's name was introduc-
ed from list of % candidates by
Alderman George A. Patton and
seconded by Alderman John F.
knudson. The vote was unanim-
GUS. The operators salary was
set at $100 a month.
Following Mr.. Hauck's appoint
ment, w. L. Hardy moved that the
city lease the west section of
Stensvad's garage as the site for
the liquor store. His motion pro-
vided for a rental of $50 month
extending until January Is, 1886,
with heat end water included and
an option for an additional year
at the same terms. The motion
was seconded and adopted.
Before the lease is obtained ne
gotiations will have to be conduct
ed with Mrs. Tilly Fox of Chicago,

vad, occupant of the building, ap-
peared earlier in the evening as
the representative of Mrs. Fox,

An ordinance, repeating all
other ordinances dealing with the
liquor question, was presented by
Leon H. Brown, city attorney. The
ordinance defines the sale of Ii
quor in the city, prohibiting any
such sale except by the municipal
dispensary or duly licensed prac-
ticing physicians or dentists or
registered pharmacists or drug
stores and gives the right to the
council to set the business hours
of the store and the rules and re-
gulations by which it will be gov
erned. This matter was turned
over to the liquor committee con-
sisting of Aldermen Knudson and
John Brueske.
The ordinance creates liquor
dispensary fund into which all re-
venue received from the operation
of the dispensary will be paid for
meeting all operating expenses.
Any surplus accumulating in the
dispensary fund may be transfer
red to the general fund by motion
of the council and expended for
any municipal purpose.

be punishable by a fine of not
less than $50 or more than $1OO
or a sentence of not less than 80
days or more than 80 days in the
