VT. W. May Demand

By the Associated Press.

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 29.-The
Veterans of Foreign Wars turned
their attention at the annual ma
tional encampment today to resolu-
tons dealing with patriotism and
to the election of new officers
One resolution up for considera-
ton demanded that Congress out.
law the Communist party. Another
Endorsed military CONSUMPTION: A
third pledged ". F. w. aid in
drive against subversive influences.
Still another proposed that the
encampment ask Congress to extend
high military honors to the late
Gen. William L. Mitchell, especially
restoring posthumously his rank OF
brigadier general, taken from him
after he advocated stronger air de-
lenses.
Already the encampment has
adopted resolutions asking restric-
ton of immigration ito the lowest
point consistent with national
needs" restriction of Government
Offices TO United States citizens and
prohibition from public Office to
those who refuse to salute the Amer
lean flag.
Also adopted was a resolution
urging that Congress investigate
charges that the Russian govern
ment had defrauded the United
States of 100000 annually by con-
fscating disability compensation
and World War bonuses to former
American soldiers working in Russia.
The encampment asked that Gov
eminent insurance be made incon-
testable after two years, that hos
pitalization be provided for veterans
of all recognized campaigns and
that benefits be increased for war
veterans and their widows, includ-
ing women married to veterans for
as little as two years.
The Ford Dearborn Post Of Dear
born, Mich, won the senior drum
and bugle corps contest, major COM
petition of the encampment, thus
gaining the national championship
it missed by a fraction of point
last year.

Practically all Government

DR.: Turchin also is pessi-
mistic over the foot future Of

Ely to Share Conference
Title With Hasca Team

brought down. Duluth'S line held on
its 38 where it took the bali on downs,
and then pass again paved the way for
an Ely score.
Intercepting the ball on the Duluth
As, Perko ran it to the 25. A series of
line plays and a pass good for 8 yards
from Stukel to Perko put the oval on
the 1-yard line where Poke" Perko
poked it over. His kick for the extra
point was good and thus the scoring
ended.
In the third Stanza, Ely was stopped
on the Duluth 5, and after an exchange
of punts Perko intercepted long pass
on his 10 to stop a Bluejay scoring
threat. The fourth was marked by IL
Duluth attempts to pass to a touch
down. Two were completed for 20
yards, two were intercepted by Banks,
and the rest were incomplete. Ely
called 20 points enough and didn't
seriously try to boost its total. The
boys got no closer than II yards to
the Duluth goal
1t was Homecoming and probably the
last one for Duluth-a crowdless and
queenless Homecoming. The stadium
was nearly empty and the queen lay
in her bed at home recovering from in
juries sustained in an auto accident
college officials are expected to dis
continue the sport after the schedule
has been completed.

Vitamins Match Bombs
In Americas Defense Role.

A grim Uncle Sam peering at us from
the pages of a magazine or a highway
advertisement with the words, your
country needs YOU" has turned our at
tention not only to army recruits but
to the patriotic duty of good physical
health. This is a necessary part of
Americas defense plan. Perhaps Wit
amins are as important as bombers?
There is the question of Vitamin A
as cold preventative. If we are al
ready getting enough of this vitamin
an additional quantity will neither pre-
vent nor cure colds, but if we are not
getting enough Vitamin A, resistance
to disease will be lower, the mucous
membrane will be more subject to in
fections, and frequent colds may result.
Vitamin. A is called the anti-infection
vitamin because it helps to keep the
mucous membrane and surface tissues
of the body in good condition.
Some of the best foods to eat for this
vitamin are butter, cheese, cream, egg
yolk, liver, fishliver oils, green and
yellow vegetables, sweet potatoes, yell
low squash and tomatoes. Among the
fruits are apricots, yellow peaches and
prunes-Eva Blair, nutrition specialist,

leave INJURED
PERSONS ALONE
Unskilled Handling After Car
Accidents Often Results
in Complications.

Hes terribly hurt; put him in a
car and rush him to the doctor!"
Accident statistics will never show
how often this impulsive suggestion has
caused unnecessary death or permanent
injury But an outstanding example
of how first aid knowledge possessed
by Minnesota highway patrolmen often
averts death or permanent manning
of accident victims and of what dis
astrous results often follow misguided
efforts of well-intentioned persons to
Immediately move accident victims
from the scene of an accident was
eloquently illustrated in results of a
severe car-motorcycle crash recently
near Austin.
Eden Rowe, chief of the highway
patrol, last week received letter from
the parents of one of two young people
gravely injured in the Austin accident,
highly commencing the patrolmen on
the scene from resisting the urgent
demands of bystanderS and refusing to
permit the youths to be moved until an
ambulance arrived. They said this
judicious action probably saved one
youth from the loss of his leg, if not
his life.
The parents also inclosed clippings
from the Austin Daily Herald, editori-
ally praising the patrolmen's action,
and quoting the attending physician as
saying that the officer twas on the job
early, resisted pressure from bystanders,
and did exactly the correct thing by
letting the youth lie on the pavement
until the ambulance arrived"
The Austin physician pointed out that
aside from first aid to stop hemmorr-
hage and keeping the victim as warm
and comfortable as possible, unskilled
handling and haste to load the injured
into cars more often than not results
in more severe injuries and sometimes
unnecessary death.

Iron Men, Coleraine Capture
Final Games to Divide the
1910 College Crown.
STATISTICS

Ely and Itasca will share the Northern
Junior College conference title for 1910.
The Iron Men won their half by de-
feating Duluth, 20 to 0, at Duluth,
Saturday afternoon, while the Coleraine
school took theirs by whipping Hibbing,
10 to 6, at the Iron Ore capital last
Thursday night.
Eveleth lost an opportunity to share
honors with Ely and Itasca when Vir-
ginia held the Tigers to a Gall tie.
Friday nigh, Eveleth will travel to
Hibbing to fight it out for second place,
while Duluth will trek to Virginia to de-
eide who will not take over the cellar
position.
Ely came through in the all-impor-
tant Duluth game by a comfortable
margin, reversing the Eveleth defeat
a year ago that eliminated them from
sharing the crown with Virginia. This
season, however, there was no taking
over the championship by the back
door route.
An intercepted Ely pass in the
initial quarter paved the way for the
Iron Mems first marker. Duluth hac
the ball on their Is and B. Kanervs
stepped back to punt. The ball got
away from him on the pass from center
and rolled over the goal line, where
Dan Mestnik pounced on it. Joe Perkc
hit the line for the extra points.
In the second quarter the Ely clut
struck real pay dirt, pushing over two
more markers, as the hapless Bluejay'
failed to get the ball on Ely's half Of
the field except on the kickoffs follow
ing the touchdown.
The initial one of the second-perioc
scores came on long pass from Tony
Stukel to Perko good for 35 yards

Worming Pullets in Fall
May be Waste of Money

Time was when you and were dosed
with sulphur and molasses as regularly
as spring rolled around-whether we
needed it or not Unfortunately for the
poultry flock, the style calls for worm
ing pullets in the fall before they are
housed-Whether they need it or not
I'll admit that it is a way of getting
rid of the surplus money, if that is
what is desired, but results of expert
ments are against this fall dosing prac-
tice.
The Wisconsin Experiment station,
for example, found that pullets that
were lightly infested with these para
sites received no benefit whatsoever
from treatment. The untreated ones

Want PICTURES
FOR WPA BOOK
Interesting Views Sought From
All Sections of State for
Looking at Minnesota"

Is Minnesota photogenic? AS state,
does it "take good pictre?"
The answer to these questions will
be found in Looking at Minnesota" a
picture book now in preparation on the
Minnesota WPA Writers Project. 1t is
to be a compilation of photographs
representative of the State, to be pub
lished in book form as one of national
series.
AS matter of patriotic pride, it is
hoped to make Looking at Minnesota"
an outstanding number of the series.
Camera minded Minnesotans are asked
to help by submitting their best pic
lures, typical of the state, to Roscoe
Macy, state supervisor, Minnesota WPA
Writer'S Project, % Second ST., N. E.,
Minneapolis.
Pictures submitted should be glossy
prints, with separate slip containing
the sender's name and address and a
brief descriptive caption. There should
be no writing on the backs of the pic
lures. No payment can be made, but
proper personal credit will be given
for each picture printed in the book.
No section of the state will be over
looked in the search for typical pic
lures. This will be the first Minnesota
book of its kind and should be of wide
interest outside the state as well as
within.
For an adequate presentation of Min
nesota life, the photo hunt will cover
industries, architecture, farm life, edu-
cation and welfare, sports, old worle
custom survivals, points of historic
significance, human interest subject.
and others. Any picture which may bt
regarded as IMPLYING some phase o.
Minnesota or Minnesota life will bt
eligible for consideration.

laid just as well, had no greater death
loss and produced eggs that Matched as
well as those that had been treated.
In fact, those that received kamala for
tapeworms showed a drop in production.
Now, of course, heavy infestation
is different thing, and in such case
treatment usually is necessary. How
ever, where pullets have been raised on
reasonably clean ground, where they
look thrifty and mature normally,
these experiments back up many poul-
try raisers in their conclusion that you
might as well save both the time and
money you spend on worming. Cora
Cooke, poultry specialist, University
