Strict Enforcement of
Present Laws Ordered;
Center Parking Abolished

Efforts to solve Newark's
parking problems were being
pushed this week as strict en-
fOrcement of the twO-hOur
parking law, and elimination
of center parking on East and
West Main streets were order
ed by Mayor Glenn Wright.
Strict enforcement OF present
laws came swiftly after the
temporary shelving of a pro-
posed ordinance to provide park
ing meters in the business area
and the request of businessmen
for a thorough 60-day enforce
ment period to completely deter
mine the needs of the city.
Mayor Wright called a special
session of the city council last
Friday evening to consider an
ordinance to establish approx
mately 447 meters in the busi-
ness district of Newark. Coun-
cilmen, after hearing the first
reading of the ordinance, failed
to vote rules suspension for sec
ond and third readings to permit
immediate adoption. Members
of the Newark Merchants asso-
citation, Federation of
Labor, and the Chamber of Com
merce suggested a 60-day
breathing spell" for thorough
study of traffic conditions be-
fore installation of the meters.
Approximately 447 meters
would be installed if favorable
action is secured on the ordin-
ance now pending before the
city council. The ordinance also

With ten months of employ

the sewage disposal plant is un-
derway, city and county offic-
ials worked to fill the gap be-
tween now and a date tentative
ly set as July l. Although the
city sewage plant has been ap-
proved as a a WPA project,
changes in plans will necessitate
resubmission to WPA authori-
ties. City Engineer Charles H.
Wells predicted that plans could
be submitted within two weeks,
and work started as soon there
after as the new specifications
are approved.
The immediate addition of 100
men to WPA rolls was virtually
assured as plans were announced
for speeding up work on high
way 202. Increased sponsorship
and equipment would be neces-
sary, County Engineer George
Hershberger stated. Approval
of the increased employment
could be made within days

the WPA, Columbus, stated at
the meeting.
State Cooperation Sought
On City Paving Work
Prospects for employing an
additional 140 men on East Main
and Granville streets (both
parts of route 16) were cited
providing the work could be
blanketed under the state road
way project. The possibility of
employing 60 men on the con-
struction of an outfall sewer was
also advanced. The sewer prof.

Educational Movie to Present
Vital information on Many
Sanitary Problems.

Motion pictures on sanitary plumbing
and well construction Will be shown ir
the Community Center auditorium next
Wednesday evening starting at 7:3C
o'clock. People of the community and
particularly those who plan to build
or who are now home owners are in
vited to attend. There will be no ad-
mission charge.
The pictures, brought to Ely by the
local board Of health and the public
improvements committee Of the Ely
Commercial club, show in graphic de-
tail the right and wrong ways Of in
Stalling plumbing and Of well con-
struction. They were prepared by the
hydraulics laboratory Of the University
Of Minnesota in cooperation with the
state board Of health.
Resort owners and dairy farmers,
who have wells on their property, can
obtain vital information on how to
keep wells free from contamination and
their proper construction, DR.. John E.
Thompson, city veterinarian and chem
ist, who was active in bringing the
film here, points out.
The reason for stressing safe water
supply at present in the Ely territory,
DR.. Thompson states, can best be ex-
planned as follows:
IF people would only remember that
all water that comes out of the ground
has reached there as rainfall from the
sky; if they would only bear in mind
as to what this rainfall water flows
over as it penetraJes into the ground;
then they would think of the proper
location of wells as related to toilets,
barns. and other sources Of pollution.
The material filtration of rain water, as
it gees through the soil, acts as a puri-
flying agent. We can then state that
the water that is in the ground would
be safe if you would properly locate
your well and then so construct it that
nothing can enter it except through
the bottom Of the well, then you will

EUer Spend the Night
In q Floating Car?

Canby-"As idle as a painted ship
upon painted ocean" That's the way
Arden Larson and Leroy Swinnell were
for long chilly hours, recently, except
it was not painted ocean but a real
body Of water. The two men left an
oil station fifteen miles north of town
in Larsons car and had gone only
about mile when they came upon
water, formed when three creeks over
flowed their banks. 1t flowed over
the road for a half mile. Upon de-
Gliding to navigate the water they
shifted into low, and went along nicely
until they neared the center of the
flood; at this point they began to
submerge and soon the water was above
the running board and the motor
which wasn't designed for submarine
duty, quit. So until dawn they sat-

have the safe water supply. But often
the pumps and plumbing fixtures are
not of the proper type and the plumb
ing connections are not properly made,
and through these sources the safe
water supply becomes unsafe.
The hazard of water-born diseases
increases in Ely each year as cur
tourist trade increases" DR.. Thompson
continued. Water supplies are pol
luted by people who are carriers, who
must report their whereabouts and oc-
cupation, monthly, to the state board of
health. But, we get people not only
from our own state but all over the
country and they stay with us some
time and we know nothing as to what
number of carriers of various diseases
may come in with them. One of these
carriers may pollute a well by direct
contact with it, or he may pollute a
farm water supply by the return Of
empty milk bottles.
1T was just such case of carrier
contaminating a water supply at one
of our nearby CCC camps that produced
a tragic typhoid epidemic at the camp
with a number of deaths" he declared.
From the above, you can see that
badly constructed water system will
not produce disease unless it has been
polluted by a disease carrier. That is
why, through these motion pictures, we
hope to teach people how to so con-
struct wells and also what is proper
plumbing, so that these water systems
will be SO constructed that it will be
impossible for carrier to contaminate
them"

CITE GROWTH
OF IRON RANGE
1889 Tonnage 500 Times That
Turned Out First Year
of Operation.

The production Of iron ore in Mime
sofa last year was 500 times that
turned out in 1884, the year the first
mine was opened up, figures compiled
by Skillings' Mining Review reveal
The Soudan mine on the Vermilion
range produced 62,122 gross tons OF ore
during its first year. This mine was
the initial one on the Minnesota ranges.
As other mines were discovered and
put into production, the volume Of
ore increased enormously. BY 1900 il
had reached nearly 10 million tons and
in the next decade it tripled this
figure.
Since 1910 there has been consider
able fluctuation in the amount turned
out, the Minnesota ranges apparently
having grown to the point where they
could supply all the demand that
might be placed upon them.
During the great depression year OF
1882, the output fell several hundred
thousand below the figures for 1897 and
1898. In 1892 but 5,154,291 tons were
produced. Five years later, in 1887,
an al-time high Of 48,416, ,985 was
reached. This is a record for the SO
years the Minnesota ranges have been
worked.
In 1888 it dropped to 1415 million tons
and for last year it is estimated az
81 500, 600
During the world war days of 1914-19
the average produced was just a little
less than during an equal length OF
time for the period of 1925-30. For the
former period it was about 81 million
tons and for the latter about 80
million. The average for the pe
seven years has been Is million tons.

Two of my cw-3 have shown a
"dumpy attitude for the past few days
and today they went down and ap-
parentIy are paralyzed. Is this the
pregnancy disease of ewes? Is there
any danger of the other sheep getting
it? I am feeding oats and soybean hay.
This is undoubtedly pregnancy dis
ease. It usually occurs about two weeks
before lambing time but the exact
cause is not known. 1t appears less
likely to occur when a well-balanced
ration containing liberal amounts Of
protein and calcium is fed, and when
the ewes secure plenty of exercise.
Without doubt the heavy SHOWS Of
March which confined your sheep to
the yard and prevented them from
getting exercise is the cause Of your
trouble, since the ration you describe
should be satisfactory. The feed hunks
for ewes should be so arranged that
they must walk one to three miles a
day for their meals. A fourth pint Of
blackstrap molasses per eve per day
mixed with an equal amount of water
and spread over the roughage is also
very helpful in preventing this trouble.
