TO Save YOUTH
Everett Stanley, CCC Worker,
Dies Despite Heroic Effort
to Beat Pneumonia.

Death overcame human heroism and
courage when Everett Stanley, Is, CCC
worker of Camp 713, succumbed of
pneumonia, Friday afternoon at the
local hospital.
Stanley lost his fight against the
disease after displaying what attending
physicians termed amazing courage
and stamina" and after an army flier
had risked his own life to bring oxygen
tanks and tent here from Duluth.
Brought to the hospital a week ago in
critical condition, Stanley failed to
rally and the request for the oxygen
tent was made to Duluth physician,
Sunday, Feb. 10. Captain Calvin Grif-
fin of the army's "arctic patrol" flew
here with the tanks and tent. Flying
the strange course through heavy fog,
Captain Griffin risked his Life to save

structed to report at $50 o'clock on the

increased by the election contest be-
tween Joseph veranth, Ely, and Martin
Gunderson, Tower, candidates for
county commissioner from the Fourth
district in the November general cleo
ton. Mr.. Veranth is now serving this
district as commissioner.
Commissioner Veranth was given q

he held the majority through the re-
count. However, the legality of some
ballots were questioned and the matter
taken to court. The first ruling sus-
tanned the recount figures and the
contest was appealed to the district

DR.. Thompson Explains Bangs Disease Test
Expect Accept Agreements In This Territory When Fund, Are R,,hd

So many owners of cattle and con-
sumers of milk have confused ideas of
the recent Bangs disease test on cattle
that an explanation appears necessary.
The test was not compulsory but most
cattle woners signed u s. Department
OF Agriculture agreements asking for the
test to be applied to their herd. In the
agreement, the government agreed to
make the test without cost to the owner
and to indemnify him for such cattle
that may be found diseased. The
owner of the cattle in return agrees to
dispose of the reacting cattle within
his herd according to instructions, with
In thirty days, and to disinfect his barn
after said diseased cattle are removed
and not to add untested stock to his
remaining healthy herd
All dairymen about Ely did not enter
into such agreements and for the

present the government is unable to
accept any more agreements because OF
the indemnity fund being exhausted but
it is hoped to be replenished in the
near fture and additional testing car
ried on. The dairyman who failed to
enter this agreement when available
viii now find themselves in a peculiar
position because Of their own lack of
action. In several instances they wish
to sell cattle but find that the pur-
chaser has had his herd tested and
refuses to buy untested stock.
The existence of Bangs disease in
cattle has been known for years but
no financial aid for combating the dis
ease was available. The present test
ing Of cattle has two objects, to reduce
the surplus dairy stock and to eradicate
disease. Most farmers throughout the
dairy states are short Of feed to carry

MAY ADD LARGE
FOREST TRACT
Additional CCC Camps Possible
If New Territory is Added
to National Forest.

Addition of approximately 80 square
miles in this section to the Superior
National Forest and the possibility Of
establishing several more CCC camps
were seen this week in an announce
ment from John Valentine, senior forest
ranger of the La Croix district.
Mr.. Valentine said that two crews OF
foresters with Is men each were work.
ing in the section which may be added
to the national ofreSt. One crew Is
working on the portage between Yer
million and Trout lakes and the other
is on the asst side of Trout lake.
At present the crews are examining
the territory and aprasing land which
must be purchased. The work must be
completed by June l to conform with
the maount of funds available for the
project.
Fifty per cent of the land In the SIX
andone-half townships included must
be purchased before the territory can
be added to the national forest, Mr..
Valentine explained.
At present crew sare examining the
territory and appraising land which mus.
be purchased. The work must be COM
pleted by June l to conform with shs
amount of funds available for the pro-
ject.
Designation Of the new territory ss

the way for the establishment Of more

Commercial Club Has Aid Of
Several Civic Groups to
Promote Paving.

Action to secure legislation appropri-
ating funds for the paving of the Ely
Tower highway is being pushed rapidly
by the local Commercial Club and sew
eral other organizations in this section
Letters requesting the support o,
Senator George Lommen and Repre-
sentatives Mark Nolan and Ray Ander-
son have been sent to the legislators by
the club.
N. w. Elsberg, state highway COM
missioner, has been invited by the
Legion to attend a conference on the
matter here at his convenience. As an
alternative, the Club offered to send q
delegation to st. Paul to confer with
the commissioner.
Inclusion of the 19-mile stretch be-
tween Ely and Tower in the 1895 paving
program depends to considerable ex-
tent on the outcome of matters now
before the state legislature. The states
ability to match a federal highway
grant Of several millions of dollars will
have much to do with Minnesota's
paving and improvement program this
year, authorities said.
1t Is the general belief that the
passage of the proposed bill for the re-
duction Of automobile license fees would
make it impossible for the state high
way department to finance any major
projects. On the other hand, ofacial.

Local Committee Launches
the Move With Meeting
Tuesday.
INTEREST is GROWING
All Civic Groups Invited
to Attend the Meeting
Next Week.

Representatives of all interested or
ganizations in the city, by the Legion'E
community service and contact CON-
mittee, have been asked to attend a
joint melting next Thursday evening
Feb. %, to discuss plans and possible
ties Of a new Community building.
Taking the initiative in the move
ment, the Legion committee met Tues
day evening for preliminary discussion
of the project. Members of the COM
mittee include John Gianotti, chair
man; Emor Ellefsen, George T. Ayres
Jacob L. Pete, Matt Vertin, Walter
Carlson, Ernest Hanson, Sam Abbanat
Frank Schweiger, John Salminen, Mike
Gordon and w. P. Wolff.
All organizations using the present
Community Center for meetings and
other groups interested in the project
have been invited to send delegates to
next weeks meeting.
Approval of the proposed project at
the coming meeting will mark the
launching of the campaign to secure
financial assistance from the federal
governments emergency funds.
It ID expected that the project would
have to move through channels similar
to PWA projects. This would necessi-
tate the floating of bond issue by the
city council in order to secure the
governement's loan and grant.
Considerable interest is being shown
in the project and it is expected that
the committee will receive the whole
hearted support of other organizations

It has, in recent years, been definitely
proven that the germ causing Bangs
disease can be transmitted through the
milk to people consuming the milk and
in people produce a fever-like disease
known as undulant fever. This disease
has no doubt often been confused with
other diseases and the only positive test
to identify it Is a blood test of the
patient, similar to the blood test for
Bangs disease of cattle. Undulant
fever In humans is peculiar in that it
seldom attacks children but does appear
to infect people in the prime of life

L. A. Rossman, Publisher, Sees
Permanent Prosperity in
Linking Industries.

Larry Rossman, Grand Rapids pub
Usher, in an address before the service
clubs at Virginia stated that "hope for
permanent and everlasting prosperity
rests in use and development of the
districts great resources and in the
sound coordination of agriculture, for
estry and mining"
He dwelt on the several phases in an
understandable manner Mr.. RoSsman
is keen student of the subjects he
spoke of and particularly of mining
Excerpts taken from his talk are as
follows:
"The depression laid a heavy hand
upon Northeastern Minnesota. Agri-
cultural prices were ruinous to the
best developed farming sections. In
one of the recent years the shipments
of iron ore from the Lake Superior Dis
trict were the smallest in half century
Lumber production reached the lowest
level since the Civil War. But with al
of its discouragements the depression
may point the way to prosperity ano
happiness in future years. If it fails
to do so. the struggle and distress oi
recent years will have been in vain.
Northeastern Minnesota has a splen.
did foundation for prosperity and sta
bility. 1t has large areas of rich agri-
cultural land. It has forests, present
and potential. Its iron ore deposits
are numbered among the greatest Of
the world. In the proper use and de-
velopment of all of their great resources
in the sound coordination of agriculture
