for PENSIONS" he continued, "and
they were questioned and grant
ed their pensions. They were
commended by many taxpayers
and everything seemed to be very
satisfactory" He then read the list
of inmates and explained how
they were to have been cared for.
After that, he told the meeting,
"The board acted like bunch of
kids" He reviewed the meeting at
which MIR. Johns was not satisfied
with accommodations offered him
by NYA officials as caretaker at
the school which was to occupy
the home and declared, eff Mr..
Johns can dictate to the taxpay-
ers of Redwood county, we need
new county board"
Delving into figures, Mr..
Crimmins stated that the one
sixth the county would have
paid toward old age pensions
approved for the eligibles at
the home would have amount
ed to $379.92 while others
there could be cared for at a
cost of $3.50 annually. The
total, $1,759.92, he subtracted
from S6,434.44 which he quot
ed MIR. Johns as stating was
the cost of running the home
last year. To this balance he
added $500 offered for rental
of the building and $500 for
rental of the land to arrive at
net saving by closing the
home and renting it to the
government, of S5,474.52.
He called the job of superin-
tendent of the home, ''the best
job in the county listing the sal
airy of $110 per month, plus $25
for distributing surplus commod-
tiles, plus seven of the best rooms
at the poor farm, all the food for
his family, gas for his car, heat,
light, telephone. 81 would figure
Mr.. Johns gets at least $4,000 per
year and ! dare say if the county
board would advertise for an Al
man and his wife to take care of
the poor farm for $50 a month
and everything paid, the court
house would not hold the appli-
cantS."
In computing the saving by
closing the county home, Mr..
Crimnins said he had not made
allowance for the fact that when
people die on OAA the federal
government pays half the hospital
and funeral bills but when a
death occurs at the county home,
the county assumes the entire
bill.
The restraining order which Mr..
Werring never served but which
the commissioners knew about
when they reversed their vote on
closing the home, MIR. Crimmins
called "a Hitler bluff that work.
ed"
Declaring Mr.. Werring opposed
the school on political grounds, he
stated 'It's just a drop in the buc-
ket compared with the federal
projects they've had in his district
this year."
Mr.. Clague rose to urge an ex-
preston from the other side of
the question, 'What prompted the
board to change its mind?" he
asked.
Mr.. Wells, Redwood Falls COM
missioner, stated he hadn't chang
ed his mind but had voted to close
the home both times.
Mr.. Beckman was then called
on and verified the figures pre-
sented by Mr.. Crimmins. He said
he hadn't come to argue the ques-
ton but to get an expression from
the taxpayers, believing it was a
matter for them to decide, by a
vote at township elections if nee
essary.

assistant supervisor of NYA pro-

 Accidents on the highway, in the factory, in the home, on farms and in schools-in fact, every where, will be dissected and stu died in the course of the 1892 sessions of the congress. More than 580 speakers and program participants will conduct the re- search.
 Industrial safety sections will range alphabetically from Aero nautics to Wood Products.

Why do cats and dogs fight2

Why do cats and dogs fight?
 That's a tough question to an- swer, but a problem almost as diff ficult will be tackled at the 2sth National Safety Congress, to be held in Chicago October 7-11.
 The hatred between cats and dogs is no more mysterious than the antagonism between motorists and pedestrians.
 Who is right-the pedestrian who looks upon motorists as ruth less bullies taking advantage of their steel armor, or the motorist who thinks pedestrians are a herd of blundering sheep who delight in making the drivers lot as hard as possible?
 Why can't they get together, recognize each others problems, and use the streets and highways in harmony and safety?
 These are a couple of the ques- tions to be considered in thorough investigation of the pe- destrian problem. A highlght will be debate between four mem bers of the Michigan Department of State on "Who Is Most to Blame for Pedestrian Accidents Motorist or Pedestrian?" , The pedestrian problem is only one of hundreds to be studied at the worlds largest safety meeting, which will take over completely the facilities of Chicago's huge Stevens hotel.
