Conan Estate Settled
by State Supreme Court.

The state supreme court held Friday
that the provisions of the will of the
late William j. Conan, who left shares
to his brother, Joseph D. Conan, did
not bar the brother from passing those
trusts on to heirs in his own will
All those concerned are well known
in this city.
The decision, reversing an order of
st. Louis District Judge C. R. Magney,
holds that Joseph Conan's son, Ray
mond G.. Conan, and a daughter,
Rachel Conan Carney, are entitled to
inherit upwards of 100000 which their
father willed to them as his share in
the trust estate of William Conan.
A beneficiary, the high court held,
may devise and bequeath his interest
in trust if it does not terminate at
his DEATH" and found no evidence in
William Conan's will that Joseph Con-
ans interest was intended to extend
only during the latters lifetime.

Pittenger Urges Federal
Government Contracts
for Northern MINI.

Midwest members of the House of
Representatives held meeting recently
for the purpose of working out plans
to present to the National Defense
Council in connection with the manu-
facture of materials needed by the
Government in it's National Prepared
ness program. Members of Congress
were present from Nebraska, North and
South Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa, Okla
homa, and other states. The group
organized for the purpose of calling to
the attention of government officials
the fact that practically no orders are
being placed in the midwest factories
for war materials 1t was agreed that
political considerations should not gov
ern the action of the group, but that
an effort would be made to point out
the unfortunate results that would fol-
low if all war materials are to be made
in eastern centers.
Among those who attended the con-
ference was Congressman William A.
Pittenger of Duluth who took an active
part in the discussion.
ut is evident" Congressman Pitten-
ger said, that unless the midwest takes
steps to point out to the government
officials the advantages of using fac
tories in the midwest, this section will
be overlooked in connection with orders
for war materials. 1t would be dis
astrous for the government to place
all of its orders in the East. This would
result in skilled mechanics going from
the midwest to eastern centers, and a
policy of permitting our factories to
remain idle will increase unemploy-
ment conditions in the midwest"
Congressman Pittenger stated that
the group was unanimous in its
position that politics should not con-
troll in a program of National Defense
and that the members of the House of
Representatives only wanted to have
the National Defense Council give fair
consideration to the advantages of the
midwest and to the availability of diff
ferent factories for manufacturing ma
terials needed for the government
"This is not pork barrel proposition
Congressman Pittenger said, "but is
something that involves the welfare OF
the people of the midwest who should
not receive sectional treatment. There
is no reason why the eastern centers
should be in a favored position at the
expense of our inland empire"

Remind Home Gamers
to Determine Seasons.

Canning season is a good time to
recall that there is small but never
discounted danger of botulinus
poisoning in home canned beans, corn,
peas and other non-acid foods.
The Minnesota State Medical Associ-
atoms committee on public health edu-
cation calls attention to this danger
in bulletin issued today because two
deaths were reported in the news re-
Gently from this cause. Also because
thorough cooking at high temperatures
before canning would entirely prevent
any such tragedies. Thorough cooking
after the poisoned food was removed
from the can would also destroy the
poison.
1.-The botulinus is tough organism
| which grows in the soil and causes no
trouble unless it happens to be sealed
alive in canned food" the bulletin says.
Then it produces poison that is
likely to be fatal if the contaminated
food is eaten direct from the can and
without further cooking.
ITO avoid it, it is only necessary to
cook the food thoroughly at high tenn
peratures but home Gamers have in
sufficient equipment for proper cook
ing and quite often the canned food
is used in salads without further heat
ing"
That is why the occasional case OF
botulinus poisoning nowadays, usually
occurs as result of eating home
canned foods in salads, the doctors
say. Methods used in commercial
canning quite generally eliminate the
danger from commercially canned food
Home canned fruit carries with it little
or no danger because the organism does
not thrive in acid food.
A serum treatment is available fol
victims of botuliSm, the bulletin says
but it must be used Immediately anc
in large quantities if it is to be effective
in gravely sick patients. The trouble
is sometimes that early symptoms re.
semble those of other disease condition:
and the real cause is not immediatel!
