Molotov) he is one of the youngest foreign ministers in Europe; speaks German and French fluently.
 Molotov is hardly known outside of Russia, but his wife, now head of the Soviet Cosmetics trust, visited the United States in 1886.
 On March 22, 1899, at a plenary meeting of the Central Committee of the Communist Party, Molotov was elected to the powerful inner Poli- tical Bureau of the party which makes decisions followed by the gov- ernment.
 In addition to being premier and chairman of the Council of Peoples Commissars, member of the Political Bureau and Commissar of Foreign Affairs, Molotov stands next to Stall in atop the pyramid of some 2,400,- 900 Communist party members who have special privileges in helping to guide the Soviet democracy - the only legalized palitical party in the U. s. s.

 PAID LIAR" ATTACK
 The name of V. Molotov Is affixed to every decree in the Soviet Union. First attention was called to him outside Russia when he denounced Col. Charles Lindbergh as paid liar" for alleged slurs against the efficiency of Russia's air-arm. Second time was when he shocked most of the world by signing, together with Herr von Ribbentrop, the Soviet German pact.
 Like many another of his compa- triots, the premier is using name of his own choosing, He was born Viacheslav Scriabin.
 As a young revolutionist, in and out of exile three times, he adopted many aliases. He preferred Molotov to zvonov, Prastota, Riabin and Kikhailov, so he kept 1t.

IN many cases actual preparation of copy this issue
would hardly have been possible Without the adver-
hsers, no newspaper could live past few editions.
The cooperation of both is hereby acknowledged and
gratitude also is expressed to the scores of persons
who contributed stories pictures or verified in
formation.
Some phases no doubt have been accorded more
space than they deserve Others may have been over
looked. There far more persons who were instru
mental in Redwood Falls development than have been
mentloned-we hope that pioneer family will feel
sHghted at scant account of it's forebears for the
slight is inadvertent
Facts, too, set them forth here may not
always mesh with recolectons of those who lived in
early times and have seen the community built We
have tried to verify stories with actual records his
torlca material and newspaper accounts and feel we
have achieved what accuracy was possible. It is a
nne commentary the human mind that recolIec-
tons are extremely accurate in cases of occurrences
involving the better things in life, the good works,
the happy eventsbut that the horrors and tragedies
which also have their place in any history are often
confused and inaccurate. 1t is here that most care
full checking necessary
With this preamble, to clarity our purpose and
apologize for shortcomings we refer you to the
material within, hopeful that you may find it suf
ncenty interesting and comprehensive to warrant
careful study and perhaps filing for future reference

Dedication and ForewOrd

1t is difficult to think of an institution in any
community which serves so general a public as its
newspaper All creeds, natonalities and classes are
represented among it's advertisers and subscribers
The manner in which it is conducted and the things
it stands for affect in measure every citizen in
it's area.
Over period of 20 years since its founding,
The Redwood Gazette has served tens of thousands
OF persons-many of whom were aware of its efforts
and activities, many of whom lent their support
Others opposed it's work. sometimes rightly no doubt
and another great class perhaps conscious of
It's active presence yet lived in community little
better, usually, because of it's activity.
1t is to the thousands of persons who have borne
with us through this span of years-smiled perhaps
but seldom jeered at efforts, our mistakes our
mlsfortunes- rejoiced at successes on occasion
and steadfasty stood with u.s. ahead of us or behind
us as the case might be- in endeavors to build our
institution and to assist others in building theirs
that this issue of The Gazette, and all issues are
dedicated.
We have striven to prepare and produce attrac
lively and interestingly, contribution to the HISTORY
OF Redwood Falls and it's environs It has been
huge task-much more difficult and discouraging at
times than we realized when the plans were laid We
have found had neither the time nor the facilities
to do all we had hoped.

Three huge giants who had walked half way. around the world since dawn, carrying between them a bag, big as house, filled with fruits from the South. Even the witches came.
 Welcome" shouted Lightning. Follow me. I have arranged a tournament" The whole company flew, ran, hopped after Lightning into the great, stone-Walled court yard where Lightning announced, We of the fairy world can touch the bottom of the sea and the brightest rim of heaven. Today a new one joins our ranks and he must test his strength. I want a pale blue ribbon from the highest rim of the sky"
 In a twink1ing the sky was dot ted with floating forms. The son of Lightning rose like flash. Soon the soaring forms were lost in the heavens. Many minutes passed and then the sky was filled with forms dropping gayly down, down. They all carried strips of pale blue. But the son of Lightning had the palest one. He had flown the highest and the swifteSt. He shouted with joy.

and non-natives on the ranges, bet ter range management plans were necessary which of course would cost considerable money for herders and round-ups. This joint range occu- pancy caused many serious range disputes, reminiscent of the old days of the West, and as it has been im- possible to install an efficient plan of range management, because of the inability of the owners to bear the costs, the reindeer are fast re- verting to wild state. The non- natives cannot afford to herd their deer constantly and the natives will not because of the mixing on the range. Many deer have drifted east ward and intermingled with the car ibou where they are then lost to the owners. Unless remedial action is taken in the near future the rein deer herds of the North country will become so seriously depleted that the Eskimos will be faced with star vation conditions The extinguish- ing of the white equity will pave the way for good range management and an increase. in the number of animals to a point where sales of hides and other products should pay all operating costs of the herds.
 Reimbursement Small
 Tn number of cases the whites through sale of their reindeer to the Government will be reimbursed in part for their expenditures in build ing up the industry but none will receive more than very small per- centage of amounts invested. The appropriation limits the average payment to $4 per head. Many deer have previously been sold as breed- ing stock for as much as $30 per head.
 Congress chose to save this indus try for the natives to make them self-sustaining rather than placing them on a dole or allowance for all future time. The method chosen is considered the least costly, the most satisfactory and will result in higher living standards and greater devel- opment for the Eskimo civilization. The reindeer purchased by the Gov ernment will gradually be distribut- ed among native associations in To- calities where there are no deer at present or the local herds have become seriously depleted because of straying, loss by wolves or other causes.

would develop a new industry for Alaska and utilize the forage on the tundra ranges of the North which apparently was valueless for any oth- CT purpose.
 During the early years of the in- dustry, under ideal conditions, that is, small herds. constant herding, excellent feed and ample new range, the reindeer increased from 33 to 40 percent each year. The loss from straying was negligible. no predators

REINDEER TO BE RECLAIMED FOR
 ESKIM0S' FOOD
History Back of Purchase Program Recalled by
 Charles Burditk

The background of the Alaska reindeer industry, which is to be placed on a new asis this year through the Governments purchase of all non n-native owned animals, was recounted today by Charles C.. Burdick who as Special Represent tative of the Secretary of the h. terior is leaving for Nome and Beth el to spend the $795, ,oO0 recently ap- propriated by Congress to exting- uish non-native ownership in AL aska.
 Reindeer is a species of caribou that was domesticated and introduc- ed into Alaska from Siberia in the sos to replace the fast disappearing whales as the piece de resistance" of the Eskimo diet. White whalers were rapidly exhausting this source of native food and the reindeer was planned as a substitute. Only l. 280 head were shipped in and from these it is estimated that there are now in excess of half million ami mais. About 18O,000 are in white or non native ownership and these are freely intermingled with the native-owned deer throughout many of the ranges.
 Whites Enter Picture

Chapter One
The Son Of Lightning

THESE many, many years ! ago the God of Lightning was sitting thoughtfully at his desk in his great, white castle in the North. He turned the pages of a calendar as though he were remembering his fiery deeds.
 Then he turned to the page for the next day. There he found scribbled, My sons twenty-first birthday" He leaned forward, his gaunt face broke into flashing smile, and he pulled a bell cord beside him. A gong boomed. Feet came running and servant stuck his head in the door.
 Gall the winds" shouted Light ming. In twinkling there was a puffing against the window at his right. He opened it and in swooped a dozen ladies in long, gray mist. They flew up and down signing, "Wh-wh-a-a-t?"
 Summon the fairy world here for tomorrow noon," said Light ming. "Then my son turns twenty one. He shall have feast and then set out on his adventures"
 So off the winds swept, and the God of Lightning went to bed. At dawn he was up. He commanded great wreathes of glowing light ming hung at the gates. He swung festoons of Northern lights from the castles towers: glowing mists of red, green and purple. He com manded a feast be laid and then he summoned his son. He sat down to wait. He heard light, rum ming steps. His son entered the room: tall, graceful young man, handsome as a prince. His shoul- ders were broad, his head was car ried proudly, his smile flashed so brightly from deep, michievouS eyes that it was hard to tell their color. He wore blue jerkin, blue knee brooches, and about his slim waist, silver belt.
 The Silver Flute
 He shouted with joy when his father told him that this was his first day of manhood. But just then both of them heard great clamor at the front gates. The whole fairy world was arriving. Little rain fairies their pockets full of fire1ies to keep them warm. Flower fairies wrapped in pussy willow catskins. Trolls that rode the back of snails.

the tiny Queen of Fairies. She handed him a silver flute. "This, my son." she said, Twill help you to win friends"
 The Black OpaA
 The young man bowed and looked very pleased But just then a little black witch dropped on his other shoulder. She handed him black opal This" she said, Twill make it less easy" You see she was angry that any one could fly faster than she did.
 Lightning drowned at the witch, and suddenly pulled a silver ar row of fire from a quiver that hung from his left shoulder. He hurled it at the witch. It tore her long black cape and then spun through the air down, down to the villages of men.
 The witch flew off whimpering. Lightning shrugged his shoulders, put his arm around his son. and led the whole party into great feast that lasted until the moon stopped in to tell them the hour The next day the son of Lightning set out on years adventures.
