PINE COUNTY RURAL
SCHOOL NEWS
A. E. GUSTAFsON. County Supt.

Inc 1Itn Seml-dnnual distribution
of net income tax money has been
received at the county auditors Of
flee. This is for the last half of 1889
and is based on the 1889 school CEN
sus of 4428 eligible names on the
census list and amounts to $22, 40.
This was due in January.
The March apportionment aid has
also just arrived from the state. 1t
is based on last years average daily
attendance of 4207 pupils at So per
child. Willow River also will receive
an adjustment of $3,426 in supple
mental aids.
The Sturgeon Lake sectional con-
tests have been postponed until Fri
day, March 20. We have not heard
when the postponed Kerrick con-
tests will be held.
Cloverdale, section 4, had one of
the finest programs ever held in that
section. The following declamatory
winners represented their respective
schools: Vera Peterson, district Ill;
Sylvia Brown, SO; Esther Marion,
102; Marian Lyseth, 112; Carol Thorn,
SO; Wallace Summerland, Ill; Eden
Brant, 85; Lillian, Pike, 116; Leola
Gay, 1902; Leroy Peterson, go; Peter
Huntley, 116; Sylvia Erickson, IS;
Eden Brant was selected by the
judges to represent section at the
county contest
The following boys and girls con-
tributed vocal and instrumental num-
bers at the Cloverdale sectional pro-
gram: Ronald Brant and Marcel Ella
son, district IS; Dale Chaffee, 102;
Leroy Peterson, go; Marie Campbell,
France Sundeen and Leola Gay, 102;
sextette from 1O2 and rhythm band
of 10 members from district SO.
The legislative committee of the
Minnesota Education Association met
in session on Saturday, March 9, at
I ST. Paul and again passed resolution
insisting that all of the net income
tax collections should go directly
and actually to schools as was orig
inally intended, so that general state
aids can be paid in full. This is
similar to the resolutions passed
every year by the State School Of
ficerS' Association. Last fall, over
1900 school board delegates voted
practically unanimously for this reso-
luton.
Various organizations working for
these important things are not 'med-
ding in politics." School superin-
tendents that are working hard for
these things and other important
matters affecting schools, teachers
and pupils are not sticking their
noses in politics." Some of the 'poli-
ticians" who have friends that worked
against these important measures and
who have blocked and prevented
some of these good steps are attempt
ing to throw cold water on our eff
forts by falsely accusing some of us
that we are mixing politics in the
schools
1t is very awkward and unbecom-
| ing for any Pine county editor or
private citizen to "go to bat" for that
group in the legislature that has con-
sistently worked against all measures
| that benefit our Pine county schools.
We are very glad that the editor
of this paper and most of the readers
of this column are in harmony with

JAPANESE ISSUES
LEAD new RALLY
Many Domestic Corporate Is
sues Come Back Fractions
To A Point

NEW YORK, Oct. 1O-R-Some
conciliatory talk from Tokyo was
the handspring of a modest rally
In the bond market today after
several declining sessions.
Japanese issues paced a broad
recovery in the foreign list. Many
domestic corporate issues came
back fractions to around a point.
u. S. Governments were mixed.
Some of the medium term maturi-
ties sold off 1-8 to IA of a point
near the close.
Government loans of Japan,
which had steered a sharp retreat
since the making of the Axis pact,
recovered IL to 2 points. A few of
its municipal and industrial issues
made equal gains. German govern
ment loands were irregular. Aus
ralian 4 lbs picked up around 4.
Belgians were weak. The Latin
American group was marked by
sharp declines in Dominican Re-
public obligations and : good rise
In some of the Argentines.

CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO, Oct. lO-QP- Wheat
buying inspired by a stronger tone
of securities, some milling trade
activity and substantial shipping
business lifted prices more than a
cent at one time today but re-
newed profit-taking checked the
upturn and halved the gains.
At the best level December
wheat at 80 3-8 and May at 81 IL
were within fractions of last weeks
which stand as the markets
peaks for the past four months.
AS the premium over loan rates
widened, however, buying interest
diminished and the urge to even
up accounts increased.
Wheat closed 1-8 to SO higher
than yesterday, December 81 ga
to 7-8, May 81 SO to 3-4; corn Ia
to SO up, December So So to "a,
May SO IL; oats 1-8 to IA up;
l 3-8 to 2 higher; rye
1-8 to 3-8 up and lard 2 lower to
5 higher.
Wheat purchases attributed to
millers apparently represented
only routine activity inasmuch as
there was no evidence of expand
ing -four business.
Shippers sold 1900 bushels from
here to outside mills while spot
wheat prices were IL to ga high
er, No. 5 red bringing "a cents,
or 3 cents over the loan rate for
No. 2 grade. No. 2 red wheat was
quoted 6 to 8 cents over Deem
Der, or above 80 cents in some
cases, while No. 2 hard was 2 to
2 10 over. 3

NEW YORK COTTON

NEW YORK, Oct. l.-R-Cot-
ton futures today widened the gap
from the high levels of the autumn
advance recorded last week by
sliding off 6 to Il points under
increased hedging sales.
This pressure was augmented by
professional liquidation prompted
by the foreign situation. Market
observers reported an increase in
southern offerings and pointed to
the probability of a quickened
movement of the crop in the neal
future because of favorable wealth
er for picking.
Cotton cloth business was at
modest limits. Worth street mill
agents said mill asking quotations
were unchanged for popular con-
structions in the gray goods line.
