WHAT IS HIDDEN 1?

Editor Askov American:
Harry w. Christensen, by public
utterances and letters to the press
has been trying to help prevent con-
tinued investigation of un-American
activities by the Dies committee. In
letter recently made public, Chris
tenson said: 81 suggest that you
write your Congressman and urge
that no more funds be voted this
hysterical committee" The fact that
100000 additional has just been
voted for use in continuing the in
vestigations, by vote of 344 to IS
of House members, shows how ser
ious, intelligent government officials
have found the Red" situation to
be and just how badly Harry Chris
tenson would misrepresent the Sixth
Minnesota Congressional district had
he been elected to Congress last fall
ChristenSon's close association with
Minnesota's radical to RED" ele-
ment, leads one to inquire, just why
is he so anxious to defend them?
What might he be trying to help
cover up?

SHOULD BECOME CITIZENS
Editor ASkov American:

Editor Askov American:
Some time ago 1 wrote a letter
in which l suggested that we open
the doors of immigration a little
wider. Since then l have received
opportunities to help organize peace
clubs, etc. l may as well say now
that l do not wish to enter any clubs
unless it would be one to build up
and strengthen our citizenship and
our faith in democracy.
Since this is a country of free
speech, freedom of press and the right
of assembly, as any true democracy
should be, 1 believe we should find
out what these new immigrants think
of our form of government and
whether they intend to become citi-
zens. Instead of waiting several
years after entering this country they
should declare their intention of be-
coming citizens before they leave the
port of entry. If they do not believe
in our form of government and are
not willing to support it, they should
not be allowed to enter.
In general way anyone living
within our borders, regardless of age,
color, or religion, is considered a
citizen, although he may not have
the right to vote. There are many
grades of citizenship. The good citi-
zen and the bad. The poor citizen
need not be the one who pays his
taxes or obeys the laws. There should
be a feeling in the citizen that he
is part of great democracy and he
should be willing to cooperate with
all and be willing to try to improve
his neighbours well-being as well as
his own.
In other words, there should be a
feeling of patriotism, feeling that
this is my country and I will stay
by it and the people who are a part
of it,
EARL JAMESON.

LOMMEN'S PRESTIGE LOST

Editor ASkov American:
Well, Senator George H. Lommen
has released a statement in which
he lashes our veteran Farmer-Labor
senator, Henrik Shipstead, and calls
him more like a buzzard than an
eagle" And what species of fowl
does the Eveleth solon imagine him.
self to be, a bantam fighting cock?
Non-partiSan observers (not the
political writers) are willing to adj
NIT that Shipstead may face his
hardest fight next year and that his
opponents, whoever they may be, will
not lack campaign ammunition, but
very few of them are alarmed over
Lommen's caustic outburst. Lom-
men was equally caustic in his de-
nunciation of Hjalmar Petersen, but
nevertheless Hjalmar almost upset
the BensonSLommen applicant. Later
the worthy but somewhat egoiStic
solon from the Iron Range cracked
down on Harold E. Stassen via radio
and to the tune of recorded organ
music, chimes and church bells, but
Stassen piled up a 100000 vote plur-
atty over Lommen's political client"
one Elmer A. Benson. And the little
senator himself was almost defeated
by little known opponent. So his
remarks on Shipstead should give no
one any reason for alarm because
! Lommen's outbursts are usually
favorable omens for those whom he
attacks.
Senator Lommen has lost his pres
| tige even in his home district, the
eighth, and if he hopes, as is rumored
to run for Congress or for Governor
in 1910, he had best think twice be-
fore he leaps. And by the way, where
does he keep his followers" when
he is equally hostile to the radicals
and the conservatives in his party?
1t seems to me that Senator George
H. Lommen speaks, acts and works
only for Senator George H. Lommen!

Membership in the Central shows
an increase, according to Mr.. Carnes'
statement, con December 81, 1898,
the Central Cooperative Associa-
ton had as member stockholders SIG
livestock shipping associations own
ing Common Stock in the organiza-
ton costing $25 per share. This rep
resents an increase of II associa-
tons over the previous year. On the
same date, the Central had 20,553
individual farmer members who are
owners of Preferred Stock costing
$1.00 per share. This represent an
increase of well over 1000 members
from the year previous. Over 28.5
percent of the total livestock sold at
South st. Paul during the year 1888
was handled in Central's alleys"
Regarding the reciprocity treaties
and trade agreements with other
countries, Mr.. Carnes had this to
say: upon international collabora-
ton of practical character lies the
hope of worldwide recovery from
worldwide depression Agricul-
tural prosperity which we have en-
joyed over a period of years has been
largely dependent upon our ability
to trade successfully with foreign
countries. However, those responsible
for the shaping of reciprocity trea-
ties and trade agreements should bear
in mind that agriculture is entitled
to protection. cannot see any JUS
tification for program, the effects
of which will result in trading off
the American market of the Amer
lean farmer to supply market for
the products of American industry.
Of the 20 agreements which have been
consummated to date, all but one
have been made with countries hav-
ing an exportable surplus of agri-
cultural products"

However, it is quite plain that
the jig is up. Legitimist Spain has
lost the civil war, practically and
mllitarily speaking. Any attempt tc
prolong it is mere desperation, result
ing in nothing but useless massacre
Effect in Rome.
1t is quite probable that the Span
ish war will have been officially
ended when these lines are read
although it is not definitely certain
Practically speaking, it is over. AND
then the obvious and urgent question
presents itself: What will Mussolin
do about all the Italians still ir
Spain? Much seems to hinge or
that.
On April 16, 1888, Mussolini pledged
to Great Britain-when the Italo-
British treaty of friendship was
signed-his willingness to remove his
soldiers from Spain not later thar
the time when the civil war was
ended; when the treaty became effec-
tive in November, it was understood
that that pledge remained unchanged
But now the government-contro
press of Italy rather bluntly makes
the claim that Francois military vic
tory cannot be considered complete
until it has been succeeded by 6
political victory-that is, until Franco
has established a regular Spanish
government. Until that time comes
the Italian newspapers say, it WOULD
be too hazardous to recall the Italian
and the German soldiers In other
words, it is up to Italy to determine
when the moment of lending the war
has actually arrived
TuniS Fears.
And that is exactly what has beer
feared in many parts of Europe; there
has been apprehension that Mussolin
did not want to get out of Spain, al
all. That apprehension is deepenec
by the fact that Italy demands thai
France surrender Tunis to it.

Peck Talks.
In the afternoon on Tuesday, F. w
Peck, president of the Federal Land
Bank in ST. Paul, talked to the great
delegation of livestock producers and
Central stockholders on the "Use and
Misuse of Farm Credit" winding ur
with a dissertion on the unseen
items on the balance sheet of a CO.
operative" Regarding this first topic
he listed several items of advice tC
anyone seeking credit and other items
pertinent to the cooperative.
Talk on Fat Cattle.
Professor w. H. Peters, chief of the
Division of Animal Husbandry, Uni
versity of Minnesota, spoke on Tues
day afternoon to the gathering on the
fattening of cattle. In his opening
remarks he pointed out reasons why
cattle should be fattened before they
are slaughtered for beef
From the consumers standpoint
he said, ''fat beef tastes better, is more
tender and more nutritious than thin
beef. From the packers and retail
er's standpoint, fat cattle dress high
er, the meat is more attractive, and
will keep longer than thin beef. From
the producers standpoint, fat cattle
weigh more, sell for higher price
and bring more money per head than
thin cattle
During 16 years of the last 20
experimental cattle feeding trials
have been conducted by the Univer-
sity of Minnesota. Out of. the 16
years there were IL when the fatten-
ing of cattle showed a net profit OF
S1368 per head. There were four
years when the enterprise showed a
loss of $16.85 per head. Averaging
the II profit years with the four loss
years we have a net profit each year
for the Is years of $500 per head
That is, we have $500 per head in
addition to having marketed our feed
through the cattle at full market
price"

over reputed ''lie" which he claims

newspaper-owned agitators, when it

France and Germany? He states,
himself, that the people are begin
ming to realize that the things they
have read from agitators are pure

it: "Why does the whistle blow for
