Ashley, Getty, Raymond, and Lake
George are urged by the county
agents office at st. Cloud, to begin
to make plans for the wiring of

arrangements be made for wiring
loans where necessary with the st.
Cloud Production Credit Associa-
ton, the st. Cloud Credit Associa-
ton, nor any private association
that is willing to borrow money for
that purpose. Needless to say many
farm operators will be in posi-
ton to wire their buildings with
out the need Of loans.

The committee then proceeded
in secret session to consider
amendments to the Senate bill
demanded by the American Fed
Grafton of Labor and members
of the committee.
The vote to substitute the
Black bill for the House measure
automatically killed the Wood
amendment which permitted the
proposed labor board latitude to
impose minimum wages as high
as 70 cents an hour, and to cut
hours to IS a week.
Under the more conservative
Senate bill, the labor board can
not fix minimum wages above 40
cents an hour or reduce hours
below 40 per week.
BY substituting the Senate bill,
the committee indicated that it
would respond to the demand OF
Administration leaders in the

BERLIN, Aug. 4.-Karl Won OS-
sietzky, noted pacifist German
writer and Nobel peace prize win
ner, expressed the hope today in
an interview that he can go to
Switzerland in couple of months
to complete a cure for tubercu-
loSis.
Ossietzky now is in Sanitarium
in Berlin. He confirmed that he
had received the full $4,000 Of the
Nobel peace prize award for 1885,
which was voted to him last No
vember. He complained that
legal expenses swallowed $4,000.
Ossietzky spent three years in
Nazi concentration camps, until
transferred to a hospital to be
treated for tuberculosis. He was
released from a prison hospital
and entered private institution
only a short time before the peace
prize was awarded him.
The writer asserted his move
mentS are completely free and
this was confirmed by q G. S. P.
(Secret police) official who was
present during the interview.
Ossietzky declared he occupies
himself in no way nowadays with
political sessions but remains q
convinced pacifiSt.
When restored to health, he
plans to exc out an income by
photography, as the interest on
the remaining balance of his
Nobel prize money is not suf-
ficient.
Mrs. Ozzietzky now also is liv-
ing at the Sanitarium in which
her husband is patient, in order
to be near him.

ting his foot on someone's neck, or
because he was Of a different re
ligious belief, or because he wanted
local political prestige. If that be
true, he is not q fit mar for the
Supreme Court bench. On the Other
hand, if he joined the xxx when
he was a young man, to make poli
-tical prestige and influence in his
local political community fights and
quit when he was elected to the
United states Senate and an older
man, l would say his fitness should
be investigated from another angle.
| don't think his membership in
the xxx should be consented as
a bar from the appointment of the.
bench. My personal opinion Of Mr..
Black, disregarding whether he
was a xxx or not, is that he is
not the caliber man, his background
does not bring him to the standard
to justify bringing him to the Su
preme Court bench. His past record
will show he is not qualified to
make the kind Of man we should
have on the highest court Of the
land.
