Der who had written letters to Wash

come and talk, without any prelimi-

in their various communities, brought
to the conference the persons whose
actions and utterances gave a bizarre
flavor to newspaper accounts of the
meeting.
In many community throughout
the country small business men who
had devoted themselves to their affairs
and had not written any letter to the
President. found their interests in the
conference represented by persons who
would hardly have been chosen by a
careful attempt to get real representa-
tives Of small business thought. Yet
the experience suggests that if the
administration is willing to take the
trouble to bring about a genuinely rep
resentatlve group Of the more substan-
tial type of small business men. the
result would provide Mr.. Roosevelt
with useful guidance.

occurs when excavations are completed,
another when the main building Is
enclosed and third when the build
ings are ready for occupancy. The
granting Of F. H. A. insurance Is con-
ditional upon compliance with these
standards.
The tendency throughout the coun-
try for buyers and lenders to place
confidence in F. H. A. requirements
has Influenced builders and contractors
voluntarily to adopt these standards.
Builders report that potential home

Literature For First Reserve Area
Training Camp Available From
w. ID. Gallup

Robert Swift Post, American Le-
gicn, is cooperating with the Head
quarters First Reserve Area of the
Citizens Military Training Corps In
an effort to strengthen enrolment
of Minnesota boys into the activity.
Commander w. D. Gallup, in an
nouncing the Legion's willingness
to cooperate, stated that applica-
ton blanks for enrolment and all
necessary literature are available
with him.
Camp in this area will be held at
Fort Smelling from July 7th to
August 5th, Sidney Erickson, Min
neapolis, c. M. T. c. officer, said in
a letter to the Legion Post. Young
men, in ages from II to "a, are elig-
IDLE for enrolment at no expense to
them. All expenses including trans
portation are paid.
Lieut.. Colonel Erickson pointed
out, For many years Minnesota
has been far behind all other states
in this area with reference to boys
attending the G. M. T. c." Mr.. Gal
lup said that many boys, believing
the quotas full, had failed to apply
but actually Minnesota has not fill
ed her quota for a number Of
years.

devised to aid library service in
rural communities, Miss Bernice
Finnegan. librarian, said this week.
The aid, according to a letter from
Lee Zimmerman, director OF hbrar-
les, would come in the form of Fed
eral grants allocated according to
rural population of the states
Mr.. Zimmerman stated, 'Tibrar-
les have been called upon to sup
port legislation proposed to put in
to effect recommendations for Fed
eral aid to education, including
libraries, as made by the Presi-
dents Advisory committee on Edu-
cation (the Reeves report) .Propos-
ed grants would make rural pub
lie service available to millions
now without it."
Amounts recommended, over q
spread of six years, amount in tot
al to nearly $25,OOO,0O0. On basis
Of the proportion of the states
rural population, Minnesota would
receive: 19394O, $41 1856; 194041,
$94, 1872; 194142, $142,098 and the
same amount for the three succeed
ing years until 1915.
AS regards the local institution,
rural patrons are served through
the Rural Library Service, now cir
culating in 10 rural schools, and
adults in the school districts. Cir
culation in the rural homes
amounts to many thousands Of
books each year, Miss Finnegan
said, but with aid the service could
be extended greatly.
