USE, WEAR ON TRUNK
HIGHWAYS Is NEARLY
DOUBLED IN 8 YEARS

Use Of Minnesota trunk high
ways, which means wear and tear
on road surfaces, has increased "a
per cent in the last eight years, In
addition to the increased destruc.
ton Of road surfaces resulting from
higher speeds and the greater use
of trucks and buses.
This Is shown by a comparison
of gasoline gallonage consumption
by years, requested by N. w. Els
berg, State Highway commission
er, to supplement information be-
ing obtained through the statewide
traffic survey now being made
through cooperation Of the State
Highway department and the Uni
ted States Bureau of Public Roads.
The increase in traffic use of
Minnesota's trunk system imposes
a growing maintenance burden and
Improvement obligation that is ad-
ditional to that imposed by the in
creased size of the trunk system,

miles to 1850 miles by the Legisla-

for $500 miles of highway off the
shoulders of the counties and
placed 1t on the state.
In 1929, eight years ago, 357, 9O0,-
600 gallons of gasoline were con-
sumed in Minnesota. In 1885, gas
consumption, the nearest available
measure to an accurate yardstick
on traffic, had increased to 49,
10000 gallons. From 1885 to 1885,
in only one year, this was increas-
ed another II per cent, to 483,600,-
600 gallons, or an increase in eight
years OF IA per cent.

Babe Ruth always called Red
'Meat-Head." And his doubtless
feels like piece Of raw beef right
now.
We can see a change in this man
Charley Grimm, manager of the
Chicago Cubs. You know Charley's
big fault always has been that he
was too easy going, too willing to
let the boys be boys, the while he
strummed out sweet tunes on his
old banjo. But he started the sea-
son with Carleton and Davis, star
pitchers, out of the lineup and then
Larry French had three fingers
broken by a line drive. And, the
next day, Grimm got himself kick
ed out OF game by umpire Char
ley Moran and was hauled before
league prexy Ford Frick to receive
a fifty dollar fine. When peaceful
fun-loving fellow like Grimm thus
flies off the handle, you know ne
is feeling the misfortunes which
have hit his club.

TT HAPPENED AT THE
CAPITOL

| CEdited this week by Harold ".
Starr, LeSueur News-Herald)
The doors of the Legislature are
closed. The members of the law
making body are taking a months
vacation at their respective homes,
and the governor Is spending a few
days on a vacation in the Arrow
head country. We imagine the leg
islators are using their months
time for cleaning-up and painting
UP, but without doubt will return
on the Oath of the month, ready
again to take up their problems in
an effort to unraveq the difficulties
which are now at hand.
The governor gave his reason for
calling the special session, which
was that the fiftieth legislature
had failed to enact tax program
to his liking, which was higher
taxes along many lines; and two
main bills, the education bill
amounting to $24,0O0,OOO, and the
relief bill of $13,750,000.
The governor did not agree with
J the tax plan of the senate and
therefore held "club over their
heads" by threatening a special
session If proper" action was not
taken during the last long days of
the regular session. He called for
the 1aw makers to return to their
seats in the house and senate,
which will cost the taxpayers Of
the state we'll towards 100000.
Wen have peace If we have to
fight for it" will he the idea of the
legislators as they return to their
duties the oath of the month. Many
have blamed the governor for his
actions during the regular session.
In the House the minority group
have been fighting hard to keep
this Great Minnesota together,
along with the majority of the Sen
ate, which has held a "level head
ed gaveq' over the 'tgoings on" and
will plan to carry on the session in
such manner that when they
again return to their respective
homes throughout the state, they
will be congratulated, rather than
condemned for their actions.
Upon the opening Of the legisla-
ture, the members of the house will
receive $1,000 per day for the time
spent there, while the senate men,
bers will receive nothing. This
special bill was passed in 1885 and
did not include the senate for the
reason that senators are elected
for period of four years, while
the representatives make the
fight" every two years.
Throughout the state today, while
you are reading this column, there
are senators and representatives
right in your own districts, ex-
planning why they have voted for
or against some legislation which
in some way effects you directly.
Scratch your head and think up
some way you might assist your
law makers and sit down and tell

Minneapolis, May 5.-This past
week might well be known as the
Seven Days Of Tragedy or the
Week OF Regrets for more than one
famous baseball star of the Major
leagues. And you may throw in the
magnates, too, especially Messrs.
Mike Kelley, Of Minneapolis, and
Lou McKenna, Of st. Paul, for
their eyes were nearly as wet as
the skies as they looked upon fro
zen diamonds and muddy infields
and wondered where all the money
is coming from that has slipped by
the gate.
But we're thinking more partic-
ularly Of Red Ruffing, the Yankee
pitcher, and Larry French, the
Cub southpaw, when we speak OF
hard luck. With Ruffing, it's the
luck of temperament that he
should be placed on the ineligible
list for there he was, giving the
cold shoulder to an almost equally
cool $4,000 which the Yankees had
offered him, an increase of three
Thousand over his stipend of last
season.
Ruffing never has been very
stubborn regarding holding out
And here's funny one. He's al.
ways been considered one of the
best pitchers in the big leagues al.
though last year was the first time
he won 20 games in season. He's
valuable for his hitting, too, and
that's where we believe he stubbed
his toe. He tried to hold the Yanks
up for an additional one thousand
dollars on the basis Of his pinch.

GALLAGHER DUE
TO FACE DUDAS

NORFOLK, Va, Oct. 5.-Marty
Gallagher, Washington heavy
weight, and Steve Dudas, who
fights out of New York, will meet
in a local ring two weeks hence,
according to plan announced to-
day by promoters.
Gallagher and Dudas were to
have fought last night, but queer
infection, which closed both of
Steve's eyes, caused the bout to be
called off.
Steve took a boat from New
York to Norfolk. While standing
on the deck he was bitten between
the eyes by an insect of some kind.
His eyes swelled up until they
were practically closed. This was
on Saturday. The swelling did
not go down any yesterday or last
night, hence the calling off of the
bout.
