Basketball.

With two weeks of careful drill be-

Friday night with their hearts set
on winning the game and adding an
additional game on their mounting
list of victories, which has now
reached four against no defeats. Two
weeks ago the Askov boys were hard
pressed to stay on top. With the
knowledge of the Askov plays there
is a good chance of Willow River
turning the tables or at least taking
the local basketeers down few
nOtches. To be sure of the home
teams attitude toward the forthcom-
ing game the writer asked Sigurd
Buck, the sage of the team, whose
seldom spoken thoughts command
deep respect from old and young alike.
what the probable outcome OF the
contest would be- Sigurd stopped and
thought carefully for long moment,
then said: ut will undoubtedly be a
very close and we'll played game. The
winner will be the team which gar
ners the most points. If the two
teams make the same number Of
points, it will be a tie game and
neither will win which will bring us
right back where we started. But
bear this in mind, the winner will
cut big figure in the coming district
at North Branch"

the schedule. This to be played

The chief difficulty will be to recon-
cile the powerful banking groups, who
will viciously fight any reform meas
ure, to the realization that they are
finally being challenged to relinquish
their strange hold on the nations
credit, and to that extent will lose
their power to dictate the national
spending policies and responsibilities
for new legislative ventures into the
field Of social reforms. For if the
government can take charge of it's
financing operations in any emergen-
cy, it naturally lis independent of the
agencies which now can pretty much
have their own way, since success of
bond and security flotations depends
entirely upon their attitude. That is
the one important part of the pro-
posed legislation.
Against the administration in GER
tain sense will also be found the pro-
ponents of the several plans for
complete return of the whole federal
reserve system to federal hands, and
elimination of all private control.
Their reaction to the new proposal is
not yet fully outlined, but it can be
expected that they will try their level
best to broaden the Steagal proposal
to include the central bank, and if
they fail, then to go along on this so
called partial reform.
Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1935-02-14

In the meantime, however. the first
really significant bank reform pro-
posal since the establishment of the
Federal Reserve System and the
World war is before Congress. 1t will
be a most bitterly fought fight, every
inch of the way. But it is indicated
that the administration means bust
ness by the way in which it is pre-
pairing the way for the bill. Cover
nor Ecclesi is definitely on the often
sive with splendid array of argu-
ments and data, and the leader of the
opposition, Senator Glass of Virginia,
already is being Unanswered into a
position of lesser power and influence
on the Senate Banking committee.
Senator Glass, of course, is consid-
cred one of the authors and fathers of
the Federal Reserve, and an outstand-
ing financial authority. He is tract
able, short-tempered and sensitive.
Relations with the administration are
nearly always at the breaking point.
And yet he was characterized in the
last few days as a spokesman for
Wall Street and an ultra-conserva
by no less a person than former Sen
ator Robert Owen, himself a liberal
spokesman and the man who was
chairman of the Senate Banking COM
mittee at the time the Federal Re-
serve system was created. At that
time Senator Glass headed the House
committee.
For some unaccOuntabIe reason, it
has been popularity believed that the
financial and credit structure of the
country was topic which was and is
lover the heads" of the average citi-
zen, and that it must be left to n
few of superior intelligence to con-
slider and advise. That feeling is def
nitely leaving Congress, and in it's
place is coming an active interest in
this most important problem. Before
Congress has finished with it, it will
make the other gigantic measures
seem relatively unimportnat and will
certainly result in some kind of ma or
reform in our banking laws.
Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1935-02-14

In the meantime, the refinancing
plan previously outlined in these let
tiers has found it's way into law, and
plans are already in progress for be-
ginning the sale of the so-called baby
bonds. Many are questioning the wis
dom of the venture, both because the
bonds are to be marketed among those
of smaller incomes, meaning that
there is risk of consequent reduc-
ton in purchasing power, and also
because others state that the real pur-
pose of the operation is to get the
general level of American citizens
bond conscious" so that a conserva-
tive reaction may result whenever
there is an effort to remove the tax
free feature or to propose income or
inheritance taxes that might be
claimed to jeopardize the values of
federal securities.
And so it goes. With divisions Of
opinion regarding the expansive relief
and work program, with the social
security program coming in for con-
tinually increasing criticism without
getting nearer the goal of enactment,
this banking measure is just one more
headache for the troubled lawmakers.
But it is an issue they will not be
able to dodge.

like the following ideas. Manners are
the shadows of virtues. Manners and
manhood never disagree. The behav-
ior of small boy is good just before
Christmas, because Of the reward he
expects. Character, the harbor Of
virtues, cannot be polished up period
ically. 1t must be consistent, pro-
gressive quality in a person. Behav-
ior is reflection of character, and
indicates the quality of ones char

THE NATIONAL
GOVERNMENT
By CONG. JOHN PAUL KvALE

The fight for banking, currency and
credit reform is launched. With in
PRODUCTION by Chairman Steagall of
the new banking legislation, and the
concurrent statement by the progress
sive new governor of the Federal Re-
serve. Mr.. Eccles, it is at once clear
that administration forces are deter
mined to push for a measure which
will really carry out the Presidents
now famous threat at Inauguration
time to drive the money changers
out of the temple"
1t was a surprise move. Ever since
the last election returns, and especi-
ally since Congress convened, liberals
in all party ranks had been waiting
for some concrete or specific sug-
gestion as to what might be expected
in the way of such bill. But no
ginning to be generally feared that
any move to curb the power of private
bankers or to cater to the demands of
the progressives who were clamoring
for a central bank and for govern
ment control of credit would not be
made. Criticisms were becoming more
overt and more pointed. and state
ments both in Congress and, elsewhere
were sharply critical of the admin
stration and Of the neglect of what
must be admitted is one of the truly
great difficulties in the way of re-
covery.
Coupled with this criticism was the
accusation that this administration
persisted in borrowing from the
wealthy and in piling up the tax-free
securities instead of taxing wealth
and the large corporate and individual
incomes for the costs of the New Deal
recovery program. There are signs
that even the latter charges are to be
met by presentation of a tax program
little later.
