County Gets
Compliment
On Behavior
BARNES NOTE AMONG
MANY RECEIVED ON
TALK TO ATTORNEYS

Somewhat belated recognition
of Redwood county as being ''sin-
gularly free from liquor viola
tons" was gained by George A.
Barnes, county attorney, in an ex-
change of letters this week with
William Mahoney, state liquor
control commissioner.
The exchange was prompted by
statements made by Mahoney at
the recent county attorneys con-
vention and in later releases to
the press in which certain coun-
ties, among them Renville, were
singled out for commentator
while others, including Brown,
were criticised. Redwood county
was not mentioned although au-
thorities here are satisfied few if
any counties in the state have
better records.
Mahoney's remarks brought a
storm of protest from county at
torneys' offices throughout the
state, one of the warmest of which
was that written by T. o. Streiss-
guth of Brown county, formerly
of Redwood Falls.
Barnes letter was a mild pro-
test by comparison but brought
an immediate reply in which was
this admission: Redwood county,
according to the records of this
office has been singularly free
from liquor violations, in fact so
much so that / have not seen At
to mention it."
The Redwood county attorneys
letter said:
This is to acknowledge receipt

no quarrel with Mr.. Frazee about
the enforcement of the liquor
laws in Renville County, but I do
know that there are night clubs
running, or they have been run

without a license, and that there
has been a great deal of criticism
in that county because of the lack
of enforcement of the liquor laws.

EASING Of CREDIT
DECREE STUDIED
National Association Plea
in Trust Case Before

The advisability of modifying a
b-year-old consent decree restricting
trade practices of the National Retail
Credit Association is being studied by
the Justice Department.
Conferences have been held be-
tween Government attorneys and rep
resentatives of the association, but no
conclusions have been reached. In
some quarters action is doubted.
The association, a national trade
organization of 14,l4l members, main
tains headquarters at St. Louis. The
Government filed antitrust violation
charges against the organization in
1888, whereupon the association joined

The decree enjoined the association
from dividing territory exclusively

the decree AS one of the most impor-
tant antitrust actions in recent years.

Referred to Attorney.
The brief, which Assistant Attorney
General Thurman Arnold has referred
to Attorney Edward P. Hodges for
study, argued that retail consumer
credit service can best be given any
community by single credit report

ment Of single reporting agencies or
the practice of withholding informa-
ton from non-members would consti-

consent decree is not applicable to
members of the association not specifi-

Government attorneys privately eX-
pressed doubt that Attorney General
Cummings would approve a revision of
the decree. Since negotiations began,
they said, nearly dozen Independent
credit organizations have protested
any revision.

U. s. Royal Master
 Tops Requirements
Pound Superior in Anti-Sid Effectiveness - Praised
 For Service By Leading Police Officials

Master Tires the answer to their skid problem, many organizations operating fleets of cars have stand ardized on this tire" MT. Temple ton declared. Special tribute to the tires superior safety has also been paid by various police depart ments which have equipped their patrol cars and cruisers with 1t.
 '"The outstanding feature of the new tire, and the one which estab- fishes it as one of the greatest con- tributions to motoring safety in slippery, treacherous weather, is its embodiment of a new anti-skid principle based on the use of nar- row, flexible ribs which are De- Skidded. The De-Skidding process provides the tread with hundreds of cross edges to grip the road, and add to the tires stopping power.
 "In addition to its contribution to safety. the new multiple rib tire gives greater wear, more stability, 8 quiet, comfortable ride, and new note in streamlining.
 New Note
 "In addition to its contribution to safety, the new multiple rib tire gives greater wear, more sta- bility, quiet, comfortable ride, and new note in streamlining.
 Development of the U. s. Royal Master was the result of the de- termination of U. S. Tire Engineers to conquer the serious skid condi- tions prevalent in all seasons of the year whenever roads are wet. The first step was a thorough study of skidding facts. And, in the words of the tire engineers who worked on this project, here's what they found out.
 "'When roads are dry, skidding is not a serious problem. On wet surfaces, however, an entirely dlf- ferent condition is found. On slip pery pavements, tires ride on a thin film of water which acts as a lu- bricant, and there is little resist ance to skidding until the tread penetrates this film and squeezes it out, permitting the rubber to come into direct contact with the road surface.'
 Wear Longer
 "In addition to its unparalleled protection, the new tire wears much longer, This advantage is attributed primarily to the much deeper tread of Tempered Rubber. Moreover, De- -Skidding makes the tread more flexible and permits it to conform to road irregularities under condi- tions where conventional, suffer tread designs are scuffed away by fighting the road"

FIRST BAPTIST

Unity of Christianity was seen as the worlds chief weapon against Communism and Fascism by Dr. J. Quinter Miller, of Hart ford, speaking last night at a meeting of a discussion group at First Baptist church. Difference es of religions were described as relating only to minor tenetS, not to the principal beliefs of Chris tians.
 Unions of many churches In re- cent years were described as showing the tendency toward a Christian unity and Dr. Miller recommended expansion Of the vacation school, the enlargement Of the adult education program and assumption of the Christian unity viewpoint as matters of To- cal concern.
 Groups for adult education programs will be organized by the council of churches after Easter with meetings planned for three Wednesday nights at St. Johns parish, it was announced.
