Are You Using A
Flasher Button?

Are you using a flasher button on
your Christmas tree-one of those
things that makes your lights go on
and off? If so, you will please a
lot of radio enthusiasts by refrain
ing from doing so.
The flaShers cause much inter
ference with radio programs and
at this time of the year when there
are so many Christmas carols on
radio no one likes to be annoyed by
a buzzing sound.
Many complaints are heard about
town relative to the flashers caus-
ing much noise.

State Capitol News
BY A. I. HARRIS

Signs grew fast last week that the
twin emergency situations, floods and
'hoppers. which had sent the state
department of agriculture, the in
sect control committee of the Uni
versity of Minnesota, the highway ana
the health departments of the state
double-ouick into trouble areas, would
soon be mastered.
After extensive tours of the dis
tress counties in the flood region OF
the northwest, and the grasShOpper
counties in the south half OF the state,
Commissioner Charles Ommodt was
able to report extensive progress. In
the north, flood waters had receded
sufficiently to record the damage.
Rotting hay stacks, ruined gram
fields. and hoof rot among livestock
marked where the floods had been
Earlier estimates of about two mil
lion dollars damage in the district
comprising Pennington, Beltrami,
Marshall, Red Lake and Roseau coun-
ties held good. The state was turn
ing over lands rented from the rural
credits division to farmers wishing to
harvest the hay crops on them. Work
projects, Ommodt said, also were be-
ing planned to provide part-time
work for the flood victims.
In the southern belt, grasshoppers
had done serious damage to second
crop alfalfa, sweet clover, corn and
even fruit trees. Damage will create
losses to farmers of many thousands
of dollars. Poison bait by train and
by highway department trucks con-
tinued to pour into the affected sec
tons in an effort to prevent any in
crease in the infestation either this
fall or next spring.
1t was emphasized by state insect
experts that the damage at present
was little compared to what it might
become by next spring if the invasion
is not stamped out completely now.
Township control offices are being
set up as rapidly as possible.

The passing of twelve months since
the death of the late Governor Floyd
B. Olson gives a perspective to his
place in history and to his contribu-
ton to the liberal movement of Min
nesota.
Many will argue that it was his
leadership or his dramatization of the
Farmer-Labor appeal which brought
support from liberals in all stations
of life. But important as that was,
the writer is inclined to believe that
Olson's chief contribution was Civ
ing the party a definite social and
economic philosophy.
Before Olson it would have been
difficult definitely to classify Farmer
Labor social and economic philosophy.
The movement had its origin in the
Nonpartisan League, the outgrowth Of
farmer grievances against grain gam
bier and other exploiters. This later
was extended to the city worker, as
both discovered that they were the
victims of the same oppressors. But
essentially it was protest movement.
Under Olson's leadership, the party
developed a definite program. He
moved the party leftward.
The state department of education
is taking first steps in carrying out
provision of its appropriation bill
authorizing $4,000 to be used to pro-
vide training and instruction in con-
sumers cooperation and cooperative
marketing in the elementary and
secondary schools of the state"
Preparation of a course of study
in cooperation is already under way
and is expected to be released to
teachers of the state by January l.
Minnesota is the third state to get
legislative authorization for such a
course of study in its schools, so far
as the Minnesota department knows.
Wisconsin has had its law since 1885,
and the North Dakota legislature
passed its Cooperative Studies Act
this year.

 Gets His "Flrst Break"
 Prospects were quite bad enough when his office burned down. That convinced Black that there was no future in Ashland. With 90 in his pocket he came to Birmingham. He lived in cheap boarding houses where men bunked four to c room. He knocked at the doors of estab- lished lawyers, asking for desk space. At times he didn't eat any too regularly.
 What Hugo Black calls my first break" came when he took the case of Willie Morton, c coiored convict who had been kept prisoner 22 days after his sentence had legally ended. Morton got Si60 in damages; Black got S37.6o.
 Politics had always interested Black, who remembers an election held ih Ashland when he was O.. And 50, when he was 24 years old Black was chosen judge of munich pal court. He sat on the bench for l8 months, grinding out the grist of petty thievery and drunkS that pass through police court, that prim- ary contact between the people and the law.
 Jails were crowded with prisoners charged with petty offenSes. Court dockets were choked. Black decided 10 run for county solicitor. In an old model T, he toured the rural districts electioneering, and then at 20 no was county attorney.
 His first act was to nolle prosse 800 eases against petty offenders. His next was to launch c campaign against professional gamblers and bootleggers. Tn c year his office was up to the docket. His rigorous prosecutions cleaned up Bloody Beat" near LewiSburg, where for years there had been c bloody brawl every Saturday night.
 Tn 1917 Black resigned to enter the army. Three times he received his overseas orders. but each time he was sent back aS an instructor,

SO despite 2e months service in the field artillery, he never reached France.
 He was Captain Black when he returned to Birmingham at the end of 1919. There he met at c party Q girl wearing the uniform of Q navy yeomanette. She was Jose. phine Foster, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Sterling J. Foster.
 Today they are married, and to. day there are Hugo, Jr., i6, enrolled at Florida Military Academy ct St, Petersburg; Sterling Foster, i3, who wants to be q lawyer, and Martha Josephine, 3 i.2, who romps with her senatorial father for on hour every morning before he goes to the office.
 After the war, Black resumed law practice in Birmingham. For eight years he built up Q steadily-increaS- ing general practice.
 A New Senator eFrom Alabama
 Eary in 1925 he started laying the groundwork for c race for the U. s. Senate, He had thought of the state legislature, but the political situation seemed to open the way to bigger game, and Black decided to shoot straight for the U. s. Senate.
 The state was Klan-d dominated, and Oscar W. Underwood, her tra- ditional senator, had deliberately de1ed the Kian, as well aS having offended the drys. It was clear that he could not win again in Alabama, for he had also committed the un- forgivable sin Of becoming c "na. tionap figure, of placing national interests ahead of local logrolling. Underwood saw the writing on the wall, and did not choose to run"
 One Of several opponents Of Black ir the democratic primary of 1926 was John II. Bankhead, now his colleague in the Senate. Bankhead was pretty lofty with Black, calling him c "damago suit lawyer"
 But Black conducted the most personal canvass ever made in Ala. bama. Into every county went his small car. Black sleeping at farm. houses and meeting the people"
