work in Minnesota.
When a reputable and approved
safety group announces new activity in
support of the movement to make the
highways safe, the vultures of the
racketeer world descend on the public"
he said.
These racketeers, of course, intend to
do nothing for safety. With them, it is
simply a desire to make money for
themselves. Authorities often are help
less because safety racketeers act just
within the law"
A supporting membership drive, ap-
proved by leaders in both public and
private life throughout Minnesota, was
authorized to secure funds to finance
the work of the Minnesota Public
Safety Committee and to enable city
and county safety groups to establish
permanent programs.
Motorists are asked to become sup
porting members of the state safety
movement an membership fee of
twelve cents a year-a cent month.
OF the amount, seven cents will be for
city and county safety work and five
cents to finance the widespread activi-
ties Of the state committee.

NelU Passion Play Film
To be ShOlUn June 5th.

Judging by the popularity of previous
showings of the famous Passion Play"
in this city, the showing of the new
film, depicting the life of Christ with
accompanying music at the Presbyterian
church on June 5th, promises to draw
an exceptionally large audience.
The showing of the new film of the
Life of Christ" and the Passion Play
will be made at o'clock. The film de-
picts the story of Jesus from the
Nativity to the Ascension, based upon
and patterned after the world-famous
Freiburg and Oberammergau plays OF
Europe, actually filmed in Europe, the
Holy Land and Egypt.
A complete and very appropriate
musical score will be played throughout
the entire film on special sound equip
ment, reproducing some of the worlds
choicest and most exquisite orchestral,
organ and choral music by famous
composers.
A very spiritual and reverent atmos-
phere is established and maintained
throughout the entire program leaving
the audience in meditative, prayerful
and heart-searching mood, provoking
thought concerning the reality of
Christian principles in their daily
lives.
The public is cordially invited and
tickets are not required to gain ad-
mission. A silver offering will be taken
to assist in defraying expenses. The
film is one of unusual beauty and has
been praised wherever it has been
shown

Open H0USEAT
Ccc CAMP I'll
Public Invited to Inspect Camp
at Portage River, Sunday
Afternoon, May 80.

Captain Richard E. Blore announces
that the public is cordially invited to
attend the open house at the Portage
River CCC Camp No. Til on Sunday
afternoon, May 80.
The anniversary of this camp, con-
coded by officials as being one of the
best in operation, is being celebrated
and to fittingly carry out the celebra-
ton, the public is being asked to call
and help in the festivities.
Members of the company will serve
as guides and conduct those interested
about the camp area and through the
various buildings. Light refreshments
will be served to the guests as they pass
through the Company mess hall.
The road to the Portage River camp
is reported in excellent condition al
though narrow in spots. In order to
reach the road take the Grant Nc
Mahan Boulevard on the north side OF
Shagawa lake to where the Echo Trail
leaves the boulevard.
The trip is most beautiful one, pass
ing the handsome cottages on the east
end of Burnside lake, the FenSke lake
CCC camp and the beautiful stands OF
virgin timber owned by the Oliver Iron
Mining company and probably the only
stands of pine timber near the City OF
Ely, once noted for its immense stands
of pine everywhere.

FOREST LANDS
need PLANTING
1000, 900 Acres of Forest Land
Need Restocking, Asserts
Regional Forester.

Approximately four million acres OF
national forest land are in need OF
planting in the North Central Region
of the United States Forest Service, ac-
cording to statement made by H. Basil
Wales, assistant regional forester in
charge of timber management.
Nearly $4,000 acres were planted
during the Spring and Fall of 1886, it
was explained, which was somewhat
more than that planted in 1885, and
nearly double the acreage planted dur
ing the years 1933-34. The planting in
1897 will probably be the most extensive
in the history of the Federal forest SER
vice in this region. The region in
cludes nine states and IA national
forests. Mr. Wales further stated that
an 80 per cent survival had been re-
corded on the 1934-35 plantations up to
June of 1886.
Survival counts showed that heavy
losses were sustained last summer, due
to excessive heat and the most severe
drought conditions in the history OF
the region. The Huron national forest
in Michigan suffered a greater loss in
their plantations than other forests in
the region as the drought began some
what earlier in that area, and lasted
longer than in other sections. Records
of the past 20 years showed that last
summer was uneXcelled for high tenn
peratures and low precipitation.
In preparation for continued re-
forestation, three seed extraction plants
are already in use in this forest region
for the purpose Of extracting seeds from
cones, and one more plant is expected
to be located on the Missouri forest
Sixteen forest tree nurseries are eX-
pected to produce more than 10000 ,OOC
seedlings annually for the planting pro-
jects. Pine and spruce seedlings will be
the principal species planted.
Fires and waSteful logging opera
tions," Mr.. Wales explained further
Have prevented millions of acres from
restocking themselves naturally, and
have given rise to trees of low value
on extensive areas. Restoring these
acres to profitable timber growth is one
of our most pressing projects"
Forest officers pointed out that in
frequent cases the soil has been dam.
aged severely by fires and that many
years will be required for the soil to re-
gain its fertility by the accumulation Of
leaves, twigs and rotting wood The
inferior species now present on exten.
sive areas are serving this purpose.

Supreme Court Story
At the Ely Theatre,

Today, the Constitution of the United
States is news, vital news. To change
or not to change-that is the question
It is on the lips, not only of legisla-
tors, lawyers and jurors, but of citizens
everywhere. But before We can in
diligently decide whether the constitu-
ton needs changing and how to change
it, we should know what it is, it's basic
purpose, how it's founders intended it
to operate.
All of this is very clearly pictured in
the special twenty-minute reel entitled
Servant of the People," which will be
presented at the Ely Theatre in con-
junction with the regular feature pic
ture, beginging Saturday, and continu-
ing through Sunday and Monday.

wore shabby ones without complaining.
A more comfortable place in which

had never been able to afford. Count

For an instant he wavered. Then
the mental picture Of kindly old Hop
kins interviewed, the only man who
had been willing to give him a start
in his chosen profession. He scorned
himself for having disloyal thought
intrude.
Have you changed your mind?"
Blaisdells voice cut in upon his
thoughts. Larry flushed. The heavily
set man behind the desk was sud-
denly extremely distasteful to him
as he sat there with an expectant
look in his eyes. His glance implied
tacitly that Larry was a traitor ready
to bargain. Larry's fists clenched.

ruptly and strode to the door.

was arrested by the crisp word Blais-
dell flung out. Larry turned to see

his eyes. II think we can settle this

matter how you figured it.
Blaidsdell greeted Larry none too
cordially and waved him to a chair.
There was a silence for space, and
Larry had the uncomfortable feeling
that Blaidsdell was mentally dissecting
him.
Il know you are wondering just
why asked you to come here this
afternoon" the executive began. Larry
nodded
"Irl admit I could think of no
reason" he conceded.

"NTR. HOPKINS was good enough
AA to give me a chance right after

"But how did you know?"

other informed him. Even the small
est details must be checked upon,
even to personnel of other concerns.
I happened to have heard Hopkins
mention YOU to be frank"
IT still fail to see what this has
to do with me-" Larry told him.
Blaidsdell leaned forward, a bit
eagerly.
"All right. my boy, we'll lay the
cards on the table if you prefer.
There's no use beating about the
bush
That's the best way" Larry said
what have you in mind that I'd be
concerned with?"
you've been working for some time
on a new type Of supercharger OF
your own design which I think can
use. Would you consider coming to
work for me?"
Larry was taken aback. both by
the bluntness of the proposition and
by the mystery of how Blaidsdell had
found out about the pet invention he
had worked on in secret, and on the
firms time. Hopkins himself had
seemed as interested as he had about
its success.
I'm sorry" he declined. II in

chance at my invention as soon as
I've put the final tests through sue
