Price Declines
On Hogs, Lambs
Hogs Slightly Lower, Top
5000; Lambs Break Csc

South st. Paul, Mimi, March IS,
1888: Hog prices were mostly 15c
to Csc lower compared with Friday
of last week, increased runs being
the main factor in the decline, accord
ing to the Federal-State Market News
Service The market, however, was
fairly active as large packer buyers
showed improved interest when hogs
were available at an average cost
below $500. Good and choice 40 to
24O pound weights bulked at $3.50
to $3.50 and 24O to 300 pound BUTCH
ers at S8.40 to $3.50. Packing sows
shared the decline with most sales at
$3.50 to $3.50. Stays earned $7.25
to $500. Feeder pigs were scarce.
The cattle market performed credit
ably considering increased receipts at
most points and ruled about steady,
despite bearish attitude on the part
of large killers. Very good light
weight fed steers reached $3.50 with
other good steers and yearlings at
SITS to $3.50 Good to choice fed
heifers made $70G to $500. Good beef
cows earned $500 to $3.50 Low cut
tiers and cutters went mainly at $500
to $4.75, extremes up to $500. Bulls
turned weaker with only beefy heavy
kinds up to $6.25. Vealers were weak
to soc lower as good to choice offer
ings sold at $500 to $3.50 and the best
selections at $500 to $3.50 Stockers
and feeders were fairly active and
steady to strong. Most stocker steers
cleared at $3.50 to S7.25. Choice re-
placement steers were quoted up to
$500 or more.
Slaughter lamb prices dropped Csc
to soc on early days this week when
unloads at midweStern markets
showed seasonal increase. Other
classes showed little change. Good
to choice lambs on Tuesdays market
turned at $3.50 to $875 while feeder

at $3.50 to $3.50. Plain to near choice

Lindstrom-Center City Win
Basketball Championship
HOnOrs i'm Meet.

Chilli" of Lindstrom-Center City
won the district basketball champion
ship at Pine City in the tournament
played Friday and Saturday, March
II and IL, thereby winning the right
to represent the district in the re-
gional tournament to be played at
Virginia this weekend. The teams
in the district tournament were Bar
mum, Bruno, Taylors Falls and Lind
strom-Center City. A large crowd
witnessed the games which were
packed with thrills and heads up bas-
ketball. On Friday evening, Barnum
met Taylors Falls and after a hard
struggle emerged the victor by a
slender one-point margin, 18 to II.
Following this game, Bruno, Pine
county's only representative in the
tournament, threw a scare into the
defending champions from Chilli by
holding them to 80 to 35 score. In
the first quarter of this game Chilli
led II to 6, but Bruno came back
strong to hold them down in the Sec
ond quarter. But in the second half,
Chilli showed their power and piled
up lead which was too much for
the fighting Bruno boys to overcome.
When Chilli sought to coast to vic
tory with a lead of 81 to 16 at the
end of the third quarter, however, the
Bruno lads took advantage of the
substitutes Chilli had sent in, pulling
up to a 80 to 35 score as the game
ended.
In a close contest for the consola-
ton, Bruno defeated Taylors Falls
rs to %. Peterson and Paul Hogan
starred for Bruno in this game with
nine and seven points respectively.
Barnum entered the tournament
under the handicap of three regulars
being out with illness and when they
came against the experienced, hard
fighting Lindstrom-Center City team
they fell an easy victim, Chilli Win
ming the championship game 33 to 18.

By GEORG STRANDVOLD

Events in Europe have been on the
march with such lightning rapidity
the last few days that one must try
to merely summarize rather than to
describe their important details. A
week ago it was said here that Chan
cellor Kurt Schusschnigg of Austria
had made it plain that his country,
in spite of certain agreements with
Germany, retained its independence.
He meant it, too. And to make GER
tain that he spoke for the entire peo-
pie he ordered a plebiscite for March
Ia: Would Austrians remain loyal to
its own government, or would they
prefer leaning toward German naz-
ism? The answer was to be, simply,
yes or no.
1t was presumed that an over
whelming majority would vote in
favor of the Austrian government, and
one man who felt very sure of it was
Adolf Hitler, chief executive of the
German government; he instantly
realized that such a plebiscite might
be fatal to his dreams of united
Germany-Austria. So, he made a
move-one that is likely to re-echo
down the long, long Railways of his
tory.
Occupation.
Hitler told Schusschnigg that the
plebiscite was violating the agree
ment made between the two chancel-
lors at BerchteSgaden on February
IL, and that he would not tolerate it.
Hardly had that information reached
the Austrian when German soldiers
began to march into his country.
Schusschnigg, amazed and Inundated,
broadcast speech to the country to
the effect that the plebiscite was off,
German soldiers were on their way,
and since bloodshed would be futile,
he asked the Austrian army not to
resist the invasion.
Unopposed, then, the German
Reichswehr crossed the Austrian
frontier, closely followed by Hitler
who had flown by airplane from
Berlin to Munich and who now by
car entered Austria-that native
country of his which he left 26 years
ago as an obscure paper-hanger and
house-painter Austrians, realizing
what-and who-was coming, re-
ceived him with ovations, and Satur-
day and Sunday he made numerous
stops, addressing crowds and issuing
proclamations and DEGREES which, not
unlike those of Napoleon on trips of

THE NATIONAL
GOVERNMENT
BY PAUL JOHN KvALE, M. C.

The House passed the tax bill
recently by vote of 294 to 81. For
the second time they voted to elm
mate that feature of the bill which
would have provided for taxing those
of great wealth who derive their vast
incomes from the profits of closely
held, or so-called family" corpora
tons. The vote was 153 for the
providing for the tax and
233 against. AS a substitute which
it is hoped will provide for the rev.
enue that will be lost through the
failure to adopt this amendment the
bill provides for an increase of Csc
per gallon on liquor and &c a pound
on imported pork products and Sc
on pork. The bill is expected by
treasury experts to yield between five
billion and five billion three hundred
million dollars in revenue.
During the consideration of the
measure the thought occurred to the
writer that among those individuals
in Minnesota who are listed as having
received $4,000 or more income last
year, not one is resident of the
Seventh Congressional district. They
are residents of the Twin Cities, Du-
luth and, incidentally, by far the
largest income was received by E. L.
King, the big patent medicine man of
Winona.

Triumphant in Vienna.
With bated breath the world be-
held the German dictator noncha-
lantly waving his way through a
neighboring country toward its cap
ital, and on Monday he was received
in Vienna with acclaim such as the
modern world has practically never
seen. He had reached one of the
climaxes of his astounding career:
BY one bold move he had united
Germany and Austria-two German
speaking nations whose merger was
expressly forbidden by the peace
treaties which ingloriously terminated
the world war! 1t was dream of
his youth-noW become reality; a
reality backed by troops, tanks, air
planes, for which there was no use
since Austrian defiance had crumbled
already before Hitler made his start
ling move.
Prior to his march into Vienna,
Hitler had caused the resignation of
Wilhelm Miklas, president of Austria,
and of Schusschnigg, and had installed
in their place Nazist Minister of the
Interior Arthur Seysz-Inquart who
but three weeks ago was appointed
at the insistent demand of Hitler
himself. He had made himself the
supreme commanding general of the
Austrian army which he merged with
that of Germany; he had eliminated
the borders between the two coun-
tries, and had begun to rule Austria
by series of DEGREES which made the
world gasp.
What Now?
Among the earliest of these DEGREES
was one aimed at the Jewish popu-
lation of Austria. Jews there are
to be treated with the same contempt
and persecution as are their fellow
Jews in Germany proper; there also
was a proclamation to the effect that
Austria has ceased to exist-hence-
forth it is merely state within the
German realm.
Exit Austria!
Other poWers-as well as Ger
many itself-had guaranteed the po-
litical independence of Austria, but,
beyond formally making a protest,
they did nothing. Great Britain took
a rather calm view of the situation;
France was not worried about Aus
