That old legalized loan shark
bill has again appeared before
the Minnesota legislature. This
bill seeks to legalize the making
of loans in amount of $500 or less
at the rate of three and one half
per cent per month, or AZ per
cent per annum. This law is
sponsored and promoted by the
most selfish and greedy kind of
personal interests, who thrive
best upon the suffering of the
needy. Representatives Macbeth
Hurd Paige and Roy Wier of
Minneapolis, and Joseph Masek
and M. E. Ettel, of St. Paul, are
strong supporters of this unjust
bill.

MAYOR FILES FOR
REELECTION

Continued from page Z
threaten to "get" him at the first
opportunity, but they forget tn It
had there been almost any other
man than Johannes at the head II
the police department, that when
the communists attacked the first
uniformed policemen last May,
the order would not have read,
"don't use your guns under any
provocation" - it would have
read, eff attacked, shoot and
shoot to kill"
That so many communists are
circulating today is due to the
calm judgment and humane prin-
ciples of Chief Johannes. That
buck shot instead of bird shot +,
shot guns instead of machine
guns, were used in the July-Au-
gust strike" is another tribute to
Chief Johannes and his superior,
Mayor cambridge.
Few officials will submit to
armed assaults on police officers
without quick and savage retalia-
ton. The communists and radi-
Gals won their bird shot reward
last summer and instead of howl
ing for revenge, they should be
offering thanks to their scarlet
gods in Moscow.
One of the first acts after the
appointment of Johannes, was
the reopening of two police sta
tions-the North Side and the
South Side stations, both in
charge of highly efficient officers.
The radical plan of centraliza-
ton of all branches of our NUM-
cipal government had brought on
an almost complete demoraliza-
ton of the police department,
while the Anderson (radical)
idea of piling all biscuits behind
a barricade in the City Hall and
forcing relief clients to trek
from the most distant corners of
the city for a few bites of food,
was quickly changed under Balm
bridge.
Will cambridge be reelected?
That question can best be answer
ed in July. But if he is to be
crucifed on the cross of commit
mist hatred, I want to- go on rec
ord as saying-whether I support
him or not-that he has accom-
plished miracles in the way of
public service. l say miracles,
because he came into office on the
heels of the most viciously rot
ten administration this city ever
experienced, and l make no ex-
ceptions. That he made almost
objectionable errors, I admit.
That he will make other errors is
conceded. But if there be one
candidate opposing him who has a
record without error, let him cast
the first stone and we'll take a
look at his record!

Those radicals and commun-
lists are fighters for what they
want. After being defeated in
their attempts to get considera-
ton of their House File No. 12O,
a bill now before the Minnesota
legislature, by the city council
Friday, February 9th, they ap-
peared before the council special
legislative committee last Thurs
day afternoon, and blew-of a lot
of their foul steam and sandbag-
ged and otherwise frightened the
committee into recommending
that the council go on record as
favoring the passage of this vi
cious and illegal bill by the state
legislature. The attendance at
the committee meeting was three
radicals and five conservative al
dermen but the radicals we're the
only ones that voted for the rec
concentration. Alderman Walter
Robb of the, 18th Ward recorded
his vote against the bill. The
conservatives should all have
voted against the passage of this
bill and killed it in committee
instead of sending it out for con-
sideration by the council next
Thursday morning. It's absurd
for conservative aldermen-or
other conservatives-to remain
silent and non-fghting in the
presence of the radical agitators.

which he rendered no report. We
believe that Alderman Pearson
owes the city of Minneapolis
some money from one of his
pleasure trips but for some rea-
son the proper city officials have
failed to secure a refund of this
money from Alderman Pearson.
It's amusing to watch many of
the candidates for city office
when asked their opinion about
matters of public importance.
They look and act as though con-
sidering kicking a hat that might

fore the Bloomington Township

market can still be found for the
wheat from 6 to 8 million acres of
United States wheat land. How
ever, from 8 to 10 million excess

is continued effective adjustment Of
wheat production to demand, a new
burdensome surplus will appear

The wheat adjustment program
also provides adjustment payments
which have been a valuable form of
crop income insurance in times of

contract signers the wheat parity

A successful program will (1) ad-
