" HE dubious distinction of being

L Dusek's chief claim to fame
today following a well directed boot
to Jack Haders head last night at
Griffith Stadium in the feature Of the
weekly caulif1oWer card.
Hader gained an early lead in the
struggle for snarling honors by pump
ing his right fist to Ernie's Jaw when
Dusek, in true grapple fashion, offered
his paw to Jack before the squirming
started. There was a faint rumor this
was rehearsed in the dressing room.
The climax probably was the product
OF five minutes earnest concentra-
ton, however, for at least it was not
stereotyped. After draping Ernie in
the ropes with a flying tackle, Hader
rpmped in for the flnisher, but was in
terrupted rudely when Dusek pushed
his tootsles squarely in Jacks face.
This erased the 19XFBI classiflca-
ton expression on Hader's pan and he
crumpled to the canvas. Ernie duti-
fully hoped on and applied what Is
known to the trade as body press to

Seek Greater Economies.
Leaders of the group insisted they

greater economies" than his program
provides.
They will oppose establishment Of
new social welfare and public works
departments and "all other expansion

AS part of their economy campaign
the opposition committee members will
protest any curtailment of the con.

his power to veto executive expendi-

Controller Change Proposed.
The reorganization plan would re-
duce the controller general to the
status of an auditing officer, merely
reporting to Congress how its ap-
preparations have been spent.
Any attempt to extend the civil
service to bureau chiefs and other high
ranking officials also will meet oppo-
sition, because some Congressman be-
lieve such action would shear away

Need Better Conservation

H. c. Wenzel, new commissioner of conservation,
announced that he would institute a merit system
and competitive examinations for all employees of
the Department of Conservation other than division
directors and their deputies. Mr. Wenzel also stated
that he intends to work for six-year program that
will result in better hunting and fishing for the
average sportsman, conservation of forests pro-
lection of mineral resources, and improvement of
state parks and other recreational facilities.
There has been considerable for improve
ment in the department, and sportsmen and tax
payers will watch with interest the depart
ment chiefs efforts for Improvement. Without too
much political interference Minnesota should have a
conservation program second to Let's have two
trees where grew before, two fish where one

Will 1t Ever End?
With the thermometer lowering
near the 100 degree mark, the OPP.
inion was current that the legisla-
tors would be bidding each other
goodbye during the weekend in
preparation for their departure
home to take up their long-neg-
lected duties. Instead, they are
sweltering under the heat of pend
ing legislation and blistering sun
Their temper is such that very
few are giving any consideration
to a campaign next year, in fact,
the procedure during the regular
and special sessions has irked
them to such a degree that many
of them will choose not to return
to the legislative halls.
The Income Tax law has been
passed by the senate and house
and now rests on the Governors
desk, with a threatened veto hang
ing over it. The Inheritance and
Gift Tax bill looks like sure bet
and the Iron Ore increases are a
real question. AS for the two APP
preparation bills, held over from
the regular session, the education
al bill is about settled and the re.
lief bill will go through many
hours of wrangling before it comes
out of the conference committee.
The bill, as passed by the house,
calls for II million. The senate
saw fit to cut it in half and there
it stands. If the committee splits
the difference and makes it an
even II million there is a POSSIBLE
ity that it will win the approval of
both houses and the Governor.
Calling Names
The Governor went off on one
of his tandrums during the week
and while under the spell brought
his wrath down on the heads Of
the senators in calling them "as
SHINE and Immoral" The former
word had not found it's place in
Webster's latest edition and will
be unsuited for a Governors par
lance when it does. The latter has
many definitions, none of which
could be saddled on the member
ship of so dignified body as that
which graces the senate chamber.
More About Names
Close observance of the proce-
dure of the legislature causes one
to wonder as to just what there is
in a name. The records in Mime
sofa disclose the fact that there
are three major political parties,

Charges Auto Deaths To Discourtesy

Ralph De Palma pioneer auto racer recently
said that the nations mounting highway death toll
caused by "discoureous drivers" He stated that
highways have been steadily made safer and motor
have just about reached perfection but that just
element for safe driving is left, and that is the
driver.
That statement brings to mind that if former
death and accident records during the summer and
tourist season are to be equaled, there must come
from the homes of the United States about 81 900 to
die and million others to be injured crippled
for life.
This senseess slaughter goes on in spite of all
the warnings given and in face of the object lessons
placed daily before our eyes.
The pitiful part of this continuous tragedy is
that most of these casualties are entirely unnec
essary and might be prevented by the exercise of
binary common sense. They due either to an in
sane desire for speed utter disregard for the
most elementary rules Of highway safety
Many of the victims helpless passengers
whose lives at the mercy of the crimnally reck
less or incompetent driver. Some accidents are ap-
parenty unavoidable of course but in the vast ma
jority of cases they the result of pure careless
ness on the part of motorists pedestrians.
And even the most careful driver is often help
less when he encounters a dscourteous driver or a
fool on street or highway

The Nations Financial Condition

President Roosevelt has asked government de-
partments to lock up 10 percent of certain appro-
pratons in effort to balance the budget this fis
cal year. BY setting aside 10 percent all appropria
tons susceptible to reduction he hopes to about
400 million dollars The evermountng national debt
which has reached altime high of S36 OOO 0O0
will have to be considered soon and balancing the
budget through reductions instead of tax increases
will have wholesome effect business in general
The increase in the national debt for the fiscal year
ending June 80, 1887, s2,646,0OO,O00.
For the fiscal year, the total gross deficit of the
Treasury is estimated at $2,s11 100000 and the net
deficit exclusive of debt retirement, is given ST.
707000,O0O which is about S15O000000 greater than
estimated some time ago by President Roosevelt
There other things to consider however
Each year the Treasury contributes the required sum
of money to the sinking fund for the retirement OF
part of the national debt, sound practice which
was adhered to strictly by President Hoover and
has been followed by the New Deal administration
up to this time During the present fiscal year. how
ever the full contribution to this sinking fund was
not made Had such contribution been kept up the
total deficit of the Treasury for the past year would
have been approximately $3OOOOOOOO more.
This, however, does not tell all the story far
as the spending program for the year is concerned.
The government during the twelve months spent
nearly billion and quarter dollars it had borrow
ed in previous years, and in addition to this S406
100000 of the money which paid back to it by
banks and railroads part of the loans these pr-
vate enterprises had secured earlier in the depres-
sion, much Of this during the Hoover administra-
tion These loans good and recoverable and have
been regarded part Of Uncle Sans capital assets
But the money is collected it is being spent again
in the regular routine of the government. There is
nothing particularly reassuring about this nor in
fact that Uncle Sam is not keeping up his sinking
fund requirements
During the year Uncle Sam collected more than
five and quarter billion dollars the greatest sum
he has ever taken in except during the post
year of 1920. Yet it considerably less than the
Treasury hoped he would gather in. But the increase
in expenditures by the New Deal administration
great that the deficit amounted to the stag
gerng sum mentioned above. The increase in gener-
al expenditures of the government, carrying on I'm
Gle Sans business, S4750OOOOO and the increase
in recovery and relief expenditures amounted to
$685. 100000 over the previous year-ths at time
when the professors at Washington are telling US
that we have recovered from the depression!
The picture is not reassuring one We haven't
heard much about initiation lately Due to strikes and
