The pet measure originated
by Governor Benson's pet house
is now being exercised by the
governor as the work of "big
business and special interests"
If this was the case, why did
not the governor veto the in
come tax bill and not allow it
to become a law? In the eff
fort to crack down on those
earning $4,000 a year, the
house inadvertently, perhaps,
brought under the tax those
earning between $1,000 and
200 a year. These persons
previously exempt will now pay
from dollar up to a maximum
of four dollars a year. The
governor vociferously thunders
that this is a tax on poverty
and the work of big business
and an injustice against the
principles of the Farmer-Labor
party.
| An editorial writer in the St.
Paul Pioneer Press thinks, eff
it is OK for a 1000 state en-
ployee to be taxed $12 by the
party in power for campaign
purposes it would not be out of
line for a $1,000 single person
to contribute 81 to their gov
eminent from which all bless
ings flow" The bill as now a
law will exact 81 on a $1,000
salary of state employees for
the government, if single. At
the same time he will be COM
PEELED to pay $12 to his party,

and contrary to the statements
of the agitator and "dues col
lectors,"- hand maidens for
John L. Lewis-signed the roll
of the employees associations.
The grand coup of the paid
organizer was when he an
nounced ''that all government,
state, county, school district
and municipal employees would
be organized under the CIO
banner. After making this
statement, the crux of the
whole matter came to light
when it was further remarked
"this will bring a total of over
three million dollars into the
treasury"
Thinking caps were donned
and from the fog into which
the whole matter of Go or
ganization was shrouded, en-
erged- several pertinent ques-
tions. The miner began to ask
himself what do l get for my
dollar a month and the init
alton fee? Why does any or
ganization need three million
dollars or more a month? In
vestigation showed where none
of the dues money or initiation
fees had escaped into channels
other than for organization
purposes and big salaries for
organizers.
Further investigation also
showed where the Go move
ment proved an outlet whereby
Communists were permitted to
spread their foul teachings of
anti-Americanism among the
people and that considerable
money was being sent into this
country from Russia to finance
the Communist movement, also
that the organization of CIO
was inspired by the reds of this
country and foreign lands.
To offset this belief, gaining
Roadway among the thinkers,
paid speakers in Congress and
state halls were pressed into
service to inform the public
that industry and business are
conjuring up red scare to
force the laborer into submis-
sion and that no DOGGY man
of that kind existed, least of all
among the high-minded CO."
Notwithstanding the assur-
ance of the white-as-snow pur-
ity of the CLIO, industry and
business is alarmed over the
ultimate fate of the liberty en-
joyed by the citizen of this
country, free from the racial,
religious and political serfdom
of foreign lands. Resolutions
have been adopted by service
clubs, commercial bodies, the
American Legion, Moose, Elk
and other conventions and or
CARNATIONS, decrying the &C.
tivities of the Communist horde
and pledging their every effort
to maintain America for Ameri-
cans.
Some even have gone so far
as to demand the deportation
of Communists to the land of
their birth. This threat of de-
portation-not only made but
put into practice-is the most
successful deterrant for the
''red." To be taken from a
land where he enjoys ''life,
liberty and the pursuit of hap
piness" and sent back to a
country where his soul is not
his own, would be about equal
to facing a firing squad. The
latter punishment is as sure as
death and taxes in some of the
home lands of the exhorter ex-
pressing his paid, or free,
opinions as openly as he does
in this country.

The Queen City Sun reads
Ely a lesson in it's last issue for
criticism of the paving on No.
1859 and the loss sustained by
this city in routing of tourists
by way of the detour who take
the easiest way out and go
somewhere else. Ely's criticism
is we'll founded as the same
difficulty in getting to this city
has been experienced for the
past ten years and at the rate
the highway department is op-
Grating with jerks of a few
miles yearly, will be pestered
with detours for another ten
years.
We, in Ely are thankful for
the paving, but believe that the
work could be rushed and the
paving completed more ex-
peditiously. The Sun seems to
labor under the delusion that
we are not satisfied with the
work of the highway depart
ment and comments, "the kick
ers should be tickled pink to
know that they are getting the
paving at ALL" Virginia, nat
urally is not in a hurry to get
the pavement finished. Infor-
nation is given out in that city
that the roads between there
and here are impossible and
thus induce tourists to remain
in their city. The fact never
theless remains that Ely has
the lakes, resorts and other &C
commodations for the travelling
public and that when tourists
desire to go to Ely they are not
satisfied to stop at Virginia on
account of the roads.
We are not the only ones that
are kicking" Tourists are
hollering about the roads and
the detours. The work of the
highway department is not
being criticized as far as they
go, but it is the opinion that
more miles should be COM
pleted and the work done when
the roads are not congested
with travellers who wish to get
to Ely and not remain in Vir-
ginia or to go north on No. So.
For the past ten years or more,
the highways leading to Ely
have been torn up during the
tourist season. Enough is

raying off their RFC obligations

condition. Farmers we're crowd
ing their shopping centers until
parking space was practically i'm

On every side was evidence of
good farm income, and our one
hope for continued general pros.

That was the fundamental they
forgot in our last business boom.
The big money was being made
in the cities in 1923 and 1929
Farmers were leaving the land to
work in factories, brokerage
houses, mills and offices. Today
the farmer is back on the land,
and because the Government has
pegged the prices of his crops, he
is assured of an income that is
attractive.
Personally, I can't get very eX,

and the fine carriage that took
President Mckinley to his inaugu-
ration. Yet there was less differ
ence between that first wheeled
cart and President McKinley'S car
riage than there is between the
first automobile and the latest
models for 1888.
Comfort and luxury to a degree
undreamed of only a few years
ago, now are available to Ameri-
can motorists, even in cars in the
lowest price field. And you can
bet that the public's appetite for
these qualities has developed as
swiftly as the auto induStry's abil-
ity to produce them on an ever
increasing scale.
I don't believe that the automo-
bile should accept full responsible
ity for the American urge to be
going places, to see and do new
things. RestleSSnesS was a ma.
tional characteristic, even during
the horse and buggy days.
Nowadays the American tourist
not only wants to travel sitting
down, but he insists on greater
comfort and safety than ever be-
fore. Consequently that's the key
note Of automobile improvements
for 1898, bringing added refine
ments for more perfect relaxation
and easier travel without fatigue.

The survey which contains fig,

IL months preceding the current
Automobile Show period reveals
that a number of other new rec
ordS have also been set.
The association estimated mo
tor vehicle registrations in the
United States at 100000 OF
which 24,600,000 were classified
as passenger cars and 100000 as
commercial vehicles.
Registrations in the United
States accounted for 70 per cent
of the 41,750,000 motor vehicles

Domestic use of motor vehicles.

were produced by the industry
during the period-exceeding the
output for any previous IL months.

The new 1888 Dodge passenger
car line. with Al progressive i'm
provementS in appearance, com
fort and performance are now on
display at the auto show.
The improvements take in the
power plant, transmission, brakes,
steering mechanism, clutc h.
wheels and other componentS'
Engineering details such as float
ing power engine mountings, all
steel safety bodies, hydraulic
brakes, hypoid rear axles and a
variety of operating features are
likewise retained or improved.
NEW FEATURES
Such units as radiator shells and
die.cast grilles, by which the head
on appearance of the new cars is
beautified, are new. Hood louvres,
tenders, windShieldS, instrument
panels, seat adjustment, head
lamps, door and luggage compart-
ments, locks, power impulse neu'
trailer, muffler, clutch faclngs,
clutch BATTLE and clutch release
bearings also are new.
The method of upholstering
and trim and the use of new fab
RIGS are features of the interiors.
Notable success is said to at
tend the efforts of engineers to
make the car interiors sound
proof. The steel roof, the rear
quarters and the cowl are inSul'
ated with special heavy padding.
Body sides and door panels are
covered with a plastic material
cemented to the metal surfaces.
An important detail in the
silencing of the new cars is the
method by which the bodies are
mounted on the chassis. The sys-
TEN involves the use of chassis
outriggers with rubber spools
which prevent chassis and body
from making actual metal-to-metal
contact.
POWERFUL MOTOR
The engine develops maximum
of 81 horsepower. Full-length
water jackets, steel valve inserts,
pressure fabrication, aluminium
pistons, automatic choke and
spark advance are continued. Mod
ifications include a new spool
shaped floating power engine
mounting, a rubber-cushioned i'm
pulse neutralizer, an exhaust
silencer of new construction and
a new.type compression ring in the
pistons.
While leaving Hngine power and
car speed practically unchanged
engineers have boosted stopping
power by increasing the diameter
of the air-cooled brake drums from
10 inches to IL inches. The ribbed
drums are of special cast iron,
with a high friction coefficient
and a rapid cooling rate. Closer
balancing of the front brake
drums further contributes to
smoothness of operation.
