Resettlement Administration Adopts
New Style In Picturing Conditions
Organization Is Criticized
For Taking Photographs
To Magnify Drought
Situation
BY PRESTON GROVER
UBy Associated PreSS)


WASHINGTON, Sept. lit
can scarcely be questioned that
the resettlement administra-
ton has set a new style in gov
eminent photography, of which
the controversial picture of the
steer skull and dried water hole
was a sample.
Dakota editors criticized the
resettlement administration for
taking" photographs to make the
drought seem more horrible and
thus perhaps to further sentiment
for resettlement operations.
The editors protested that
photographer had used but one
steer skull, moving it about for
different pictures. The resettle-
ment administration explained
that one picture was taken of the
bleached skull in dried mud hole.
Then the skull was moved "about
ten. feet" and photographed in-the
foreground of parched grass
plain.
Pictures Rare In Past
Government photographs on So
Geological questions in years past
have been rare. Rather they have
tended largely to demonstrate
conditions such as need of forest
fire protection, or merely to record
progress on government projects.
such as damtS and fire lookout
towers.
The forest service, for example,
will supply on request photo
graphs illustrating the effect of
good and bad range management,
good and bad game management,
and good and bad forest manage
ment. Rarely is the next step
taken of showing a hungry farm
family impoverished by burning of
surrounding timber and grazing
upon which they had depended.
1t was the resettlement admin
istration that took that step. The
photograph of the bleached skull
was only one Of host of pictures
taken. A casual glance through
administration files open to news
paper writers seeking illustrative
matter will bring out photographs
of .s'fruit tramp" families, those
wandering groups who follow the
fruit harvest up and down the
country, often in dilapidated cars,
children barefoot and rarely in
school.
again may be found a picture
of a Mexican who, the caption
says, gives his age as As but looks
20. He has been burnt out" by
arduous picking of peas on the
piece-work schedule.
All Propaganda
The resettlement administration
makes no bones about the fact
that the pictures are effective
propaganda. But then the forest
service never distributed a photo
graph of a raging fire in the tim
Der without recognizing its value
in stirring public sentiment to
greater protective efforts.
The difference represents the
Jump between federal conservation
of natural resources and federal
activity in social and economic
questions which some factions
contend should be left to the
states. Thus arises the con-
troverSy.

NEW OBSERVATORY, TO COST
SIX MILLION DOLLARS is
NOW IN COURSE OF CON-
sTRUcTIoN
(By Associated PrexsD
SAN DIEGO, Calf, Sept. IL
Work is proceeding steadily on the
new $4,000, 900 Palomar observa-
tory, which astronomers predict
will be the worlds greatest for at
least half a century.
(By Associated Prexs)

An 18-inch telescope already
has been installed, and with it DIR.
Fritz Zwicky is searching for and
studying super noyae, giant ex-
ploding stars. These stars, he be-
lieves, may help solve the mystery
of the origin of cosmic rays.
More than $1,0OO,0OO of fed
eral, state and county funds is be-
ing spent to build highway to the
isolated Palomar site, so miles
north of here. Observatory ma
chinery parts weighing 40 to 60
tons must be moved to the 5000
foot-high mountain top.
Village Under Construction
Forty men are constructing
power house and machine shop at
the site, where a water supply sys-
tenn and several buildings already
have been completed.
Technicians are grinding and
polishing the 200-inch mirror at
the California Institute of Tech
nolOgy in Pasadena. They will re-
move four tons of glass from the
cotton disc in the process.
Homes for the astronomers, who
will come from the institute and
the Carnegie Institutions Mount
Wilson observatory staff, are be-
ing built among large trees to pre-
vent their lights from interfering
with observations.
Trees To Block Dust
Because dust also is hindrance
to night seeing" several hundred
additional pine trees are being
planted on the 720-acre site, to-
other with grass, a. flowers and
shrubs. .,...+...-
Capt. Clyde S. Mcdowell, sup
cruising engineer, says the first
steel for the .20O-inch telescope
framework will be shipped from
Los Angeles in September. All
the equipment except the big
mirror itself. he says, viii be ready
by the summer of 1888. The mir
ror may be ready a year later.
A one-tenth scale steel model
of the telescope, built in the in
strument shop of the institute, is
nearly ready for rigorous tests for
flerure and torsion. The telescope
tube will be nearly 90 feet in d.
ameter and go feet long.
Perfection Demanded
Total weight of the moving
parts viii be about 425 tons, esti-
mates DR.. George E. Hale, head
of the new observatory, and per-
lection is demanded in the bear
ings, driving mechanism, controls
and auxiliary apparatus.
The telescope will be suited for
many kinds of work, he says, but
probably its chief use will be for
the study of faint extra-galaelic
nebulae and the speetroscopic in
yestigation, with the brightest dis
persion, of the brighter stars of
our own galaxy.

GETTING 1T RIGHT

Most people appreciate good Eng
lish whether spoken or written. A
newspaper is not expected to do as
careful proofreading as is maya
zine or other periodical that is not
printed so frequently, but there is
a wide difference between Topographic
cal errors, like transposition of let
tiers, and being downright careless of
outstanding errors.
A country exchange carried the fCl-
lowing errors in division of words, all
within one column:
Speech, confidence, crowd, str
aight, don't, and aside.
The letters up to the hyphen in
each case were at the end of Line
and the balance of the word on the
next line. The word aside" is cor
rectly divided except that it does not
look we'll and it is against the rules
of printing to divide a word with only
one letter at the end of the line.
If the printed page is carelessly
produced what might not be expected
in more private writing on the part
of those who learn from the printed
page?

PLEADS FOR SUPPORT

Editor AskOv American:
The Farmers Holiday Association of
Pine county will hold its next meet
ing at Hinckley in the Legion hall on
Monday, June 1, as there are too many
who will attend school commencement
exercises on the regular meeting date.
Do not forget the date.
Much has been said in the press
regarding our last meeting at Hinck-
lay, and also there seems to be some
individuals more concerned about the
amount of members we have than
what they are in paying up their own
dues and help increase the member
ship and build up the association. 1t
is true we have only few members
in the spring of the year, we did not
have any more when the association
was at its best, but why worry about
that? We have all summer to build
up, and a great future ahead of us II
we only make use of it right.

cising our work / will not try to chop
your arguments to pieces. Keep 1t

in MEMORIAM
ditor ASkov American:

Editor Askov American:
Time flies-dreams come true-but
the modern speed of life takes not the
time to wonder at the ways of life
ITSELF We are in that respect one
with the world at large. A beautiful
highway now connects our AskOv up
with this great commonwealth
rumor has it-that the Great North
ern-ever the pride of our people in
bygone days, is going ''streamlined."
1t seems we have all we could wish
for in regard to getting somewhere.
But are we negIecting the finer things
of rural community life? That is IA
question I'd like to ask you Askov
people. RS
These wonderful spring days bring
back to many of us, more fOrcefully
than any other time of the year, our
Yesterdays; but have we time 70 lin
ger in those memories long enough to
let a thought enter? We're not those
worthy of some visible token of CRATE
fulness that we have as race been
gathered in this community for these
past years?
| think we owe it to ourselves and
posterity to erect "Mindesmarke" to
those days and center it around the
name of IL. C. Petersen, the founder
of Askov" In doing so we honor our
selves as we do him, "the blazer of
trails and dreamer of dreams"
There are many another worthy
citizen to be honored, for example:
Mrs. Ludwig Mosbak, once called the
mother of AskOv, etc.-let us hope to
realize something as we go along in
regard to commemorative men and
women who served us in making
Askov a better place to live in, but
let us begin now to lay plans for a
monument of our fine boulders to be
erected on some suitable spot in
memoriam of our founder, while we
still have with us some of our pio-
neerS.
think our Civic club will, together
with Dansk Folkesamfund, take pleas
ure and pride in sponsoring this un-
dertaking-but let us help each other
with the work and the plans. Our
young people in school could in their
art class work with the plans under
the guidance of their teachers, ETC.,
and last but not least-people in POS
session of fine specimens of rocks
and boulders should let the committee
know that fact Plans must be COM
pleted this coming summer and fall
so that the heavy transportation can
be done when roads are prime for
such hauling.

THE BIG ISSUE

Senator William E. Borah has been
a member of the United States Senate
for many years and has put up some
good battles now and then. Of late
years he has not been so outspoken,
due most Likely to the fact that he
is not so young as formerly and his
health was not good for time. 1t
seems, however, that he has put on
his fighting clothes again, and is
speaking right up in this national
campaign.
The senator said the other day that
unless there is a change in leader
ship and a liberalization, there is no
chance for the Republican party to
win next November. He declared
that the main issue confronting the
party is that of monopoly and that
if this issue is ignored at the national
convention this summer he might
join the ranks of the Democrats.
To have very many of the Borah
type of Republicans desert that party
would of course spell ruin to them
in the coming election. That mOnopO-
lies is a big issue cannot be denied
and it is we'll that men with the ma
tionwide reputation and standing OF
Borah bring it so forcibly to the
public's attention.
Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1936-05-21

up, it gives us publicity, and that is
what we need. Any one who wants
to see and know will admit that the
Holiday has done wonderful work
since its beginning. l would like to
have some good suggestions also on
what we should do in the future, it
may come to some help. When we
talk about bills we want to have en-
acted into law, such as the now de-
Lundeen Social Security bill and
other measures to benefit all classes
then we are accused of talking party
politics.
If we talk about mortgage fore
closure, demanding that when farm
er is foreclosed upon he should be
entitled to his just equity in the
property he actually owns because if
he has held mortgage against his
farm for II years at per cent in
terest he has paid up the original
amount and still it is there, and If
he is unable to pay the interest he
can be foreclosed upon and evicted
penniless. Would that be fair? When
we say no, then we are branded reds
radicals and what not.
And when we take up the work
of supporting the cooperative move
ment which is the farmers and work
ers' most important problem for the
time being, to meet each other hall
way and cut out unnecessary profit
will anyone dispute the fact that the
Scandinavian countries and especially
Sweden, are making great progress by
adopting and staying by what they
call the middle way-the co-ops-
and when l say this, l know as l have
seen it and helped build it up some
twenty years ago, but don't try any
thing of that kind here in Pine coun-
ty. Then we are only fools, suckers
and serfs of selfish bosses, etc. 1t
surely is a pleasure to somebody to
see everything is done wrong but
have nothing to offer in the line OF
progress.
AS individuals without organization
we stand as much show as the goat
in the lions den at the zoo. When
the keeper was questioned if he did
not have trouble in having the lion
and the goat together, he said, oh, no.
we only have to supply new goats
once in a while. If goats or fools or
anything we might be classified as
being, let's organize stronger than
ever before, and the other fellow will
soon quit laughing.

INTEREST RATES

Knowing that labor unions have
fought year in and year out for ade-
uuate wage scales and that changes
in wage scales do not come about
quickly, it was likely no surprise to
the country that Mr.. Green, president
of the American Federation of Labor,
went on record against the Frazier
Lemke bill. If passage of the bill
would have caused some initiation and
in turn less purchasing power by the
dollar, it would react temporarily
against labor. 1t seems, however, in
this instance, that labor accepted the
short time rather than the long time
viewpoint of the entire proposition.
Interest rates in general will not
come down without fight and with
out Notifications being made here and
there. For the good of the entire
country it would have been very we'll
if the interest rates to the farmer
had been reduced 1t would have a
wholesome effect all around. The
laborer as we'll as others of moder-
ate means, in fact everybody, would

SELF-HELP

The vote on the Frazier-Lemke
farm refinancing bill in the House
of Representatives was not party
vote. There were 173 Democrats and
81 Republicans against it. Three
Farmer-Laborites, seven Progressives,
q Republicans and 105 Democrats
voted for it. Which indicates that
both Democrats and Republicans
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES against the lower
interest rates.
1t was noticeable that some con-
servatives who have on former occa-
sions talked and voted against what
they termed inflationary measures did
vote for this bill. That act was likely
for home consumption. A cOnserva-
tive representing a farming district
where the sentiment was strong for
the bill, could nicely vote for it when
it was defeated anyway, and thus APP
pear to be in accord with the home
sentiment. 1t isn't the first time that
has been done.
While it would be foolish for the
people to depend entirely on politics
or government for economic salvation,
this turning down of the Frazier
Lemke bill further brings out the fact
that there is more help in self-help.
Producers and consumers coOperatives
are something closer to home, and
when we'll managed, like in the Scan
dinavian countries, can do more for
the people than can government.

STATUS QUO

Back in the Revolutionary war days
is when they made changes in gov
ernments that amounted to something,
so when descendants of the RevOlu-
tionary heroes refer to the constitu-
tion as a holy document or something
that should not be changed, it seems a
little out of order. Those descendants
should be the very ones to stand for
changes that are needed and thus
show the fighting qualities of their
forefathers.
Mrs. Edward M. Duling, chairman
National Defense Committee, Daugh-
tiers of the American Revolution, said
that the constitution sis the most per-
feet document yet devised. See that
it is not altered or amended to meet
the needs of what we are told is a
changing world"

Upturn Features
Livestock Trade
Slaughter Cattle Develop Fair Ac-

Levels; Hogs Rule Active at Steady
to 1Oc Higher Terms; Lambs Strong
to Csc Up.

South st. Paul, Mimi, May 10, 1886
u. S. d. Az: Improved conditions
in the dressed trade and moderate
receipts on the local market made for
a fairly active and fully steady to 15c
higher market on slaughter cattle at
this weeks opening. Medium to good
fed steers and yearlings bulked at
$3.50 to SITS, and strictly good kinds
scaling up to 1900 pounds scored So.
Medium to good fed yearling heifers
earned $6.25 to $3.50, palmer kinds
$500 to $500, most butcher cows
$4.85 to $3.50. good beef cows $5.65
to $500, low cutters and cutters $3.50
to $4.75, sausage bulls S5.15 to $3.50,
best beef bulls S5.75, and better grade
vealers $3.50 to $3.50, with few to
$500, and common sorts down to
$500. Stockers and feeders brought
strong to Csc higher terms, common
to medium stockers making $500 to
S6.25, good to choice grades $3.50 to
$3.50.
Hogs continued to show improve
ment as the new week opened, better
40 to 22O pound weights making
1920 to S9.35, 22O to $50 pounds $3.50
to 1925, $50 to 300 pounds sS.45 to
$500, 300 to 400 pounds $S.15 to SS.55,
and packing sows $500 to $50. A
few pigs earned 1925 to $3.50.
Strong competition for lambs adj
vanced prices today and good to
choice woolskins brought S10.75 to
$11.OO, choice 70 to SO pound clippers
$1,000 to $10.25. Fresh declines in
the mutton trade caused fat ewes to
