MRS. RICHARDSON
RUNSF0RSENATE
59-Year-0Id Farm Woman
- Seeks Iowa Seat Held
by Gillette.
~ the Associated Press,

~ the Associated Press.
OTTUMWA. Iowa, Jan. 24.-Mrs.
Ellsworth Richardson, who was the
flrst woman to receive the American
Farm Bureaus Distinguished Medal
for meritorious service to agriculture,
announced today she would campaign
FOR Iowa's United States senatorial
nomination on program advocating
world peace, freedom, happiness and
security
The 5s-year-old farm woman, vet
eran of many campaigns for economic
and social reform for agriculture sur
priSed party leaders when she said
she would attempt to wrest the Demo-
cratic nomination from Senator Guy
Gillette and other possible aspirants
IN June.
First Woman to Run.
Mrs. Richardson will be the first
woman IN Iowa to seek congressional
once since suffrage was adopted in
1920
Plainly. Mrs. Richardson bases her
entry IN the political field on the
theory that women have definite
place in politics.
They" she emphasized, ARE af-
1ected as much as any one else. Every
American has a place in politics if he
or she cares what happens to the
Nation, since politics is the means to
ceptton. They're citizens"
Mrs. Richardson, mother of two
sons. believes she knows what the
average woman wants, and that the
average man clings to the same be-
iiefs.
Want World Peace.
Women want world peace, free
dom, happiness and security. These
are the same things men are search
ing for and when these things are
found, both men and women will share
equally In the blessings. But thev
should share the steps toward them,
too.
Translated into the political, this
means the abolishment of hate and
ectionalism-things that are a nat
ural result of trade restrictions be-
tween the nations It means the
establishment of planned agriculture
In perfect economic balance with labor
and industry. Only on such basis can
there be security against hunger and
want against the haunting fear of the
great American tragedy of losing a
tob-this fear men and women share
together"
Awarded Service Medal.
In 1880. Mrs. Richardson was
AWARDED the Service Medal by the
American Farm Bureau Federation in
Boston. She shares this honor with
President Roosevelt and prominent
scientists whose achievements have
meant increased profits and hap
piness to farm peoples"
She has followed a diversified and
interesting career. Before her mar
riage she was trained nurse. Mrs.
Richardson made her advent Into ac-
tive outside life when she began
welding urban and rural women's clubs
Unto one organiza ton.
In 1887 she concluded a term as
national vice president of an auxiliary

WASHINGTON, June l6 tP)- The seventy-ffth Congress which came in like a lamb in January, 1887, went out something like a Ion tonight with Roosevelt friends and foes quarreling to the last.
 The President sent message saying that the session resulted in much constructive legislation, he was apparently referring to the passage of the Wage-hour, crop control and the renewal of the administrations spending and lending program for which Con- gress voted $3,753. 100000. On the other hand, critics pointed out that their accomplishments in cluded the crushing defeat of the reorganization bill, and the elim-
 nation of all but a fragment of the tax on undisturbed profits of corporations.
 The third session met one hun dred sixty five days, and appro- priated a record peace time to- tai of twelve billion dollars; and enacted a record peace time de fense program.

The Nome nugget., 1938-06-17

With a gold production TOT the year 1887 estimated at nearly $4,O00,0O0, Nome and Seward Peninsula showed a greater de- gree of progress and development of this mining industry than for several years past. The develop ment of the latent Tin deposits situated near Nome-about 150 miles up the coast-has elicited unusual interest among mining men.
 Since 1884, Noma and this sec tion of Alaska, with ,hr. lncreasei price of gold s.andi,.5 ; 6. S35.O0 4,. ounce have taken a firm grip C. c7velopme i, and are rapidly oyer .ling -,rlcu ot raJressed overcoming a period of repressed progress. Of late years Nome aas been steadily increasing its production of gold and is crowd ing Fairbanks and the Yukon River valley for first place in the production of placer gold. At no time has this Division ranked be- low second place in such produc- ton.
 And to what is this growth  and increase attributed? Primar- fly, the higher price of gold. While yet scarcely scratched by systematic prospecting, there are many sections which were large producers in the early days, but which have since lain dor mant due in a great measure to the eXhorbitant freight rates and cost of operations. Since the in- creased price of gold, however, innum-rable "diggings" have again been opened up, and are now steady producers of this mineral At the old price of gold these same diggings could not be operated with any profit.
 Hand in hand with the increaS- ed price of gold, as an attribut- able factor in the development and progress of this section, go the modern means of extracting gold from the ground. Higher ef- fictency of mechanized methods has proven the ground in ad- vance, and made possible the thorough means of mining used everywhere in this Division to- day.
 Modern, electric, pontoon type dredges, drag-line equipment, tractor bulldozers and allied machinery is exteremely profit able for the smaller operators, as well as the larger corporations opeating dredges. Portable drills capable of being transported about the rough country have at last given the individual pros pector the opportunity of proving his ground and obtaining the fair est possible estimate as to its gold content.
 However, this has so far per tained to only old, established ground, in most cases where pro- duction occurred in earlier years. What is of paramount need is a systematic and scientific means of new mining fields. Knowing that .l.e general char acteriSt.cs of the country are gold bearing is not enough. Detailed plans have been suggested of re- ;ent years .o" the discovery of .cW and ric., 'c gola fields. As yet however. no definite program h.s been ainptel. although To- cei organizations acd individuals
