Visiting A. U. Professor
Is Speaker at
Church Forum

DR.. Rudolf A. Clemen, former
president Of Whitman College, now
visiting professor at American Uni
versity Graduate School, discussed,
on the basis of source material,
THE Ideologies of Naziism, Fascism,
Communism and Democracy" at the
Forum of the Universalist National
Memorial Church yesterday morn
ing in its seventh of 4 current
series of eight topics on interna-
tional relations.
In pointing out the difference be-
tween Naziism and Fascism he en-
phasized that any system in prac-
tice Is identified with the man whom
1t typifies, especially when. as the
case with the German and Italian
brands Of Fascism, the system is
built as q vehicle for his action
rather than as logical system.
Mussolini is conceded to be a re-
markable individual, originally of
socialistic leaning, journalistic
type. as a result of whose ability
Italian Fascism presents at least less
inner inconsistency than does Ger
man Naziism.
He brought out the fact that
while both Russia and the Fascist
countries resort at present to
emotionalism as means of in.
doctrinating certain respective ideas.
concept of Communism is that
the mass of people can eventually
become sufficiently educated to take
over in their own right the reins
OF government, but that Fascism,s g
basic tenet is that the people are
incapable Of ever learning what is
best for themselves, and that
emotionalism and high-pressure
propaganda are the only methods
by which they should ever be led to
form ideas.

swing, and the government, to ward
of agitation, has required that all
meetings be announced to the au-
thorities three days in advance.
Opportunity Used Yesterday.
Yesterday was the last Sunday
before the election and both the
government and the opposition made
the utmost use of this last oppor-
tunity.
While the government dispatched
the cabinet ministers into the
smaller towns, where its following
appears weakest, the opposition
concentrated their efforts on the
two largest cities of the country,
Belgrade and Zagreb.
In zagreb, the leader of the Joint
opposition. DR. Vladko Matchek was
the spokesman, and in Belgrade the
former democratic Premier Llujba
Davidovitch harangued the multi
tude. At the Belgrade meeting a
letter from Matchek was read in
which the Croat leader prophesied
that the opposition would be VIC
toriouS.
One Major Incident.
These meetings we're unattended
by disturbing incidents and so far
there has been only one major in
cident. This occurred near Sibenik
where a meeting previously unan-
nounced was dispersed by gen.
darmes, three persons being killed,
The government anticipates a
majority of approximately 400 900
votes. The opposition labors under
certain disadvantages, namely: The
sad end of Czecho-Slovakfa robs
them OF their most powerful argu-
ment in favor of a modified foreign
policy: the united opposition now
consists Of heterogeneous elements
since it absorbed the followers of
the former dictatorship of Gen.
Pera zivkovitch and the Fascists of
former Premier Gen. Bogoljub
Yevtitch. Furthermore. bad weather
has made it impossible for a large
number of persons to attend the
election meetings.

The Nation must spend money"

Fighting in Spain and China has
shown the havoc which a hostile

in his annual report 70 Secretary

Recent advances in ether coun-
tries have equaled or escelled the
quality of American warplanes,
which already were far surpassed

been made, he reported, in efforts
TO foreStall competition between
the services for weapons and sup

The Assistant Secretary, one of
President Roosevelt's principal ad-
vlsers on the administration ex-
panded defense program, is the War
Departments business manager. He
directs purchases of planes and sup

mobilize industry for war.

were inadequate followed his recent

preparations was this years ST.

didates planning to take the bar
examinations here, was John Paul
Earnest, chairman of the Commit
tee on Admissions and Grievances
of the District Court here. Mr..
Earnest spoke as a college graduate
holding several degrees, but he told
the court that he did not wish to
penalize worthy students. particu-
larly those in the Government
service, who desired to become
members of the local bars, in order
to attain professional advancement
under the civil service.
COL Clephane, also a member of
the committee urged upon the court
the adoption of a rule. He argued
that this would make for a better
quality of lawyer, with an academic
background of economics, political
science and other academic train
ing secured in college, and that
this would be particularly useful
in these days of complex life when
the practitioner at the bar is con-
fronted with intricate problems
growing out of taxation, Govern
ment and other phases of modern
civilization.
Session for Afternoon.
The court spent the morning lis
tening to the opposing spokesmen
and set this afternoon aside to listen
to presenta ton of the attitude of the
Bar Association of the District of
Columbia Presenting the associa-
tion's resolutions adopted at the
June meeting will be Herbert M.
Bingham. chairman of the associa-
tion'S Committee on Legal Educa-
ton, and Walter M. Bastian, a
former president of the organization.
Godfrey L. Munter, president of the
association, and its board of direc-
tors, recently instructed Mr.. Bing-
ham and Mr.. Bastian to advise the
tribunal of the associations action.
The association favors maintaining
the existing legal status of legal
educational requirements for taking
the bar examinations until Septem-
ber !. l942. and then a candidate
thereafter would have to offer evil
dence either of two years pre-legal
education at a recognized college or
present certificate from the Com
mittee of District Court showing that
the candidate had the equivalent of
the college requirement.

Farmers Will Meet
At The County Seat

A countrywide meeting of farmers
to discuss the low price situation
and to promote the Minnesota Plan"
calling for guaranteed prices at more
than cost of production, mortgage re-
financing at low interest rates and
reduction of tenancy will be held
Thursday, October 6, at the court
house in Pine City. J. J. Leipzig,
noted farm speaker, will be the prin-
cipal speaker at the meeting.
Sponsoring the meeting is the Min
nesota Farm Conference Board, and
continuation group of the conference
of Minnesota farmers which Cover
nor Elmer A. Benson called last year
to map the program.
In addition to the points outlined
above, the Minnesota Plan calls for
a wide program including an ever
normal granary, crop insurance, a
surplus pool to prevent an unwieldy
over-supply of farm products from
piling up, and aid to the cooperative
movement.
This program, which the conference
board has taken steps to popularize
throughout the state and nation, re-

Petersen Sets At
Rest Propaganda

Much speculation and much ado
has been raised during the past sew
eral days by daily newspapers in the
Twin Cities about the IDEAL" which
was supposed to be in the making
between Hjalmar Petersen and the
Gov. Elmer A. Benson group.
To spike the rumors and to assure
those thousands who supported him
in his recent campaign for the NOM
ination for governor on the Farmer
Labor ticket, Mr.. Petersen makes the
following statement:
my open house policy of comforting
with individuals who agree or dis
agree with me obviously is the cause
of much press comment and concern.
Recently solicitation from the adj
ministration, mainly by non-Farmer-
Laborites, has been greatly acceler-
ated, and due to publicity given the
attempt to obtain my support for
Governor Benson, I feel I owe it to
the two hundred thousand men and
women who supported me in the
primaries and others to reiterate my
position in the present campaign.
at has been and is my desire to
remain silent in the general election
contest, and never to attempt to die
tate to the members of our party.
GAS in the primary campaign, I
continue to stand for genuine civil
service, honesty, efficiency and econ
omy in government, and against Com
munism and ruthless political ma
chine domination with its undemo-
cratic practices. These standards
must be met to provide good govern
ment for Minnesota.
"The late Robert M. LaFollette de-
nounced evils of his political party but
did not sacrifice any principles by
remaining in his party. We must
continue the work to keep the Farm
er-Labor party true to its best tradi-
tons and ideals; eternal vigilance is
the price of iberty-also in political
party.
81 feel that too much weight has
been placed upon solicited recommen-
dations or endorsements. We should
have less of that and work for a free
and untrammeled vote. o.;

Now let others go to bat and let Min

ment."

Speakes, director of the division of
game and fish, offers description of
the birds in order that hunters may
be able to distinguish the species.
The protected wood duck is a medi-
UNI sized bird. brakes are brilliantly
colored and have an easily recog-
niZed crest. Females are plain COL
ored, have white eye ring, a white
line back of the eye, dark breast

a silvery outer edge and conspicuous
white tip to the inner flight feathers.
They have squeaky, plaintive call.
More Lenient Bag.

three may be in the daily bag, or six
in the possession limit of 20, are can
vasback, ruddy, redhead and buffle-
head.

usually oCSll III llllSl otlOll III 1lOShS.
brakes are grayish-white on back
and wings. Upper neck and head are
chestnut colored. Female is plain

shaped, long and sloping The bill
is nearly black and is long and mar
row.
The bufflehead is a small duck.
The male appears largely white with
a black back. The head is also black

proved Beef Trade Fac
tors; Hogs Off, Lambs Up

South st. Paul, Mimi, Sept. 81,
1888: Cattle receipts in general
dropped off this week and the dressed
beef trade showed minor improve
ments, so that last weeks sharp de-
cline in slaughter cattle was checked
at least for the time being, the Fed
eral-State Market News Review says
Current religious holidays, however,
resulted in some slackening of demand
for cattle, but not enough to cause
much change. Steady prices for fed
steers and yearlings found the gen.
eral bulk medium to low good at
$3.50 to $3.50. There were a few
sales up to $1,000, but odd head choice
yearlings sold at $11.00. Grain-fed
heifers continued scarce and the heif-
er trade as a whole was generally
steady. Grassers comprised the bulk
at $500 to $3.50, practical top $500.
The market on cows was about steady,
but good fat western cows at $500
to $3.50 and some heifery kinds at
$6.75 were somewhat higher than last
weeks low time. Vealers were steady
with few spots slightly lower. Bulls
were steady to weak. Vealers sold
fully steady, the weeks supply of
nearly 5000 cattle and calves clear
ing moderately active with country
interest fair. Dairy cows have lost
some ground since a week ago.
Hog prices declined sharply on the
first two days of the week, weight of
numbers locally tending to depress
the trade Declines on barroWs and
gifts measured Csc to soc as compared
with last Friday, light lights showing
the maximum downturn. Tuesdays
top rested at $8.65 for good and choice
200 to $50 pound weights. Sows
showed independent strength and lost
only 15c. Current sales of sows were
largely at S7.15 to SITS.
Killers were aggressive buyers of
fat spring lambs this week and prices
were hiked up 15c to mostly Csc
Other classes showed little price
change, but a better feeling crept into
the feeder trade as a result of the
upturn on slaughter kinds. Good and
choice springers bulked at SITS, and
choice Dakotas scored $3.50 on Mon
day. Good and choice Montanas
earned $3.50 to $3.50. Plain to choice
slaughter ewes turned at $1.50 to
So. 90. Good and choice 81 to 70
pound white-faced range feeding
lambs found outlet at $6.75 to $500,
most natives and Dakotas at $3.50 to
$6.25.

|4-H Club Work
Makes Progress
In Pine County
Years Roll Call Shows In
crease of Two Hundred
Over Last Year.

In order to close the All season,
three get-to-gether meetings were
held as follows: Pine City high school
on Tuesday evening, September 20;
Hinckley high school on Wednesday
evening, September 81; and Willow
River high school on Friday evening,
September %. These meetings were
well attended by All members and
leaders.
The purpose of these meetings was
to give the members and leaders a
chance to get together with the men,
bers and leaders of other clubs, to get
acquainted, and to promote spirit
of good fellowship and cooperation,
also to review club activities in the
county the past year and to plan
activities for the fall and winter and
discuss problems which might come
up.
The All trip winners to the State
Fair gave reports of their trips, and
these were enthusiastically received
by the groups. Each club planned
one number for the program, games
were played and lunch was served.
Greater Good Accomplished.
Highlights of this seasons All ac-
tivities reached greater proportions
this year not only in quantity but
in quality. The total All enrolment
in the county this year is 700, an
increase of 200 over last year. Forty
four demonstrations were given in
the county on home economics pro-
jects during the three local and the
final county achievement. This is
an increase of 26 demonstrations over
last year. Sixty girls took part in
the county dress revue contest from
which a county dress revue queen
was picked. Twenty-six boys and
girls won trips to the State Fair this
year with exhibits of livestock and
clothing, as demonstrators, health
champions, judging teams, or as dele
gates to the Farm Boys Camp or
the Rural Girls Camp.
Eight boys and girls will attend
the Junior Livestock Show at st. Paul
in October and November as exhib-
itors of baby beef, market lambs, bar
rows and poultry. Two delegates,
one boy and one girl, attended the
state Conservation camp at tItasca
