More ''StOp" Signs
On Trunk Roads

Speeding motorists on trunk
highways usually can be brought
to a complete stop in built-up
districts and other danger zones
easier than they can be slowed
down to safe gait, it is indicated
by experiments conducted by the
Minnesota highway department.
Some engineers who have been
studying the reactions of drivers
to various types of warning signs
believe that the future may See
much trunk highway traffic
brought to a complete stop at the
edge of populated districts and
then permitted to proceed at a
reasonable speed, says a highway
department bulletin.
The department is also consider
ing bringing traffic to a full stop
when entering zones where crews
are at work on the roads. Failure
of drivers to slow down sufficient

Motorists Watch as
Tornado Passes Car

Having a cyclone pass over the
car in which they were riding was
the unusual experience of Mr.. and
Mrs. C. E. Keller of Sleepy Eye
Monday evening of last week.
The Kellers were looking after
real estate interests in the Dakotas
and had gone to the farm of a ten
ant when threatening storm clouds
appeared. They started for Vien-
ma, their old home town, but had
gone only short distance when
the storm struck with full force.
Rain feell in sheets.
Mrs. Keller saw the funnel shap-
ed cloud approaching and was pre-
pared for anything. Mr.. Keller
driving, had his eyes glued to the
road ahead and knew nothing OF
the twister until he felt a force
which seemed almost to lift the
car off the highway. An instant
later the twister, which apparent
ly had been in the air SO or 100
feet above the car, hit the ground
a few rods away and tore up trees,
buildings and telephone poles as
it swirled away, lifting again only
to come down mile farther on
where more damage was done.

REFLECTIONS OF A
FIRECRACkER-BY
A FAMILY CRACKER
I was a firecracker.


1 belong to family, an old
line family, which dates back so
far that there isn't living per-
son who can recall our origin ex-
cept through the perusal of things
historical. But like all good
things the end had to come. I'm
not sorry, either.
I am the first one to admit that
I am not as big, strong or loud as
my father and old brothers but
you'd be surprised how the small
er children fall for me. To me
there is something nicer in little
tots than there is in grown-ups so
l am not sorry.
l guess my life's termination
was we'll wrought but I'll get to
that later.
I always had a streak of mean
ness right down the center of my
back. The red stuck out on me at
all times so I guess I was deserv-
ing of all I got. You've heard
them speak of the inevitable.
I laid on the counter in a great
big department store in a large
i
wood Falls. I thought they'd new
er take me out of that storeroom
and place me in conspicuous
spot in a show window. When
they did my bigger brothers were
pushed right out in front of me
and I could hardly see the people
walk by, let alone their seeing me.
I was fondled-very much like
a baby, the big sissy-by a red
headed kid who didn't appeal to
me in the least and I swore I'd do
him dirt the first chance I got. I
did, too.
was pushed into his pocket
where I couldn't see any Of the big
doings going on during the big
celebration. Imagine depriving
me of such a privilege. But I
wormed my way to the edge of his
pocket and watched the parades,
then the kittenball tournament,
then saw those big fat men wav-
ing their arms around at the
bridge dedication. Neither of us
liked that so we left.
I was still mad at him even if,
he did take me to all the big
events of the day. Of course, he
couldn't take me to all of them as
there was too much going on.
I was taken to his home and
thrown on the table. 1t was just
dusk then. He picked me UP after
HE had eaten and took me to the
front yard. Boy, was I boiling. He
lighted a match to my wrinkly
nose. That was my cue.
I pretended I was a dud in his
pack and wouldn't work. But on
my inside I was getting hotter and
hotter all the time. I knew it
wouldn't be long before I reached
the saturation point. But he did
mt. He just held me in his fingers.
I waited until he had turned his
ugly red head around to his sister
to tell her that was punk. And
then completely blew up. Boy,
did I burn his fingers? Did he
yell?
am not being contrite at this
late stage for my wicked actions
as I guess that was part of my
outlined life I couldn't live down
that streak of meanness.
I told you about the inevitable.
I was blown to little shreds, scat
tered about the green grass and
will be left lying there until
lawnmower finishes me. It was
great to be alive, though.
I was a firecracker.

LOSS ON FARM
LOANS 344
MILLIONS

Exhaustive reports on the activ-
tiles of the Federal Farm Board
today in course of publication by
the Government Printing Office
here, charge that avarice, mex
perience and extravaganza by Of
ficials of some agricultural COOP
eratives we're responsible for the
heavy losses of the Federal Farm
Board.
- Sterilization Hit
The prospective losses Of the
farm board program, the report
said, amounted to $344.900,000 or
81 per cent of the revolving fund,
as of July l. last, much of it
due to the Inflated efforts at price
STERILIZATION through market op-
erationS.
In some cases, the report stated,
instances of outright dishonesty
were uncovered.
The report was compiled by the
special Senate agricultural sub
committee headed by Minority
Leader Charles L. McNary. Of
Oregon, and was extremely volumi'
nous. 1t covered every possible
phase of the Federal Farm Board
experiment of the Hoover admin
istration.
High Loan Total
The Farm Credit Administra-
ton and the Farm Board made
loans totaling $1,150,000,000 to aid
fund of 100000 appropriated
by Congress for the purpose.
Nearly $750,00O,00O was loaned
to try to peg the prices of various
commodities by sterilization cor
porations. This is about SO per
cent of the gross loans by the
Hoover farm program.
In addition, 5000, 100000 was ad-
vanced for commodity loans.
