GERMANS FIND
italy NO HELP
Turns Out to be Drawback to
Conquering Armies, Says
Service Club Speaker.

R. H. B. Jones of the geological de-
partment of the Oliver Mining COM
pany, Duluth, here for several days
last week on business for his company,
addressed the Rotary Club on last
Wednesday evening and the Kiwanis
Club on Thursday evening. In his
addresses he gave a very informative
and interesting talk on minerals and
the important part they play in the
European war. The talks were illus
trated by charts which substantiated
his statements with figures showing
the conditions of minerals and oils
in both America and Europe.
Mr.. Jones traced development of
minerals in the past IS years. He said
that more minerals and more mineral
wealth had been produced and con-
sumed during that period than in all
previously recorded history. Mr.. Jones
pointed out that Germany had solved
her iron ore problem by occupying
France and Norway. The occupation
of Norway assured Germany of Swed-
ish ore.
The speaker was of the impression
that the entrance of Italy into the war
was hindrance to Hitler Italy lacks
coal and oil and the prospects for
the Italian people this winter was
described as very dismal. He elabor-
ated on this to some extent and pic
tured conditions existing in the
Italian nation, now paying tribute to
the German war machine to the ex-
clusion of food and heat for its own
people.
Mr.. Jones stated that the main
deficiency of Germany, aside from tin
tungsten, etc., was petroleum, especially
lubricating oils and high octane gaso-
line Germany's attack upon Russia
focuses attention on the Caucasion
oil fields of that country. Hitler's every
effort is now being made to secure
these fields and should they fall into
his hands they would constitute his
greatest asset.

FIRST SELECTEE
is SECURED JOB,

The first Ely man to return from
active military service and get job
through the efforts of the Ely local
employment Office of the Minnesota
mployment- security division, 200 East
Sheridan street, was reported today by
Edward C. Stonich, manager.
The soldier is Private oscar Roiko
who served seven months with the
field artillery at Camp Warren, Wy
oming.
Seven days after he returned home
from Camp Warren, Roiko was hired by
the McWilliams Dredging company
New York City, to which the loca
employment Office had referred hin
and he left last week for Greenland
He will be employed as construction
worker.
"Men returning from military ser.
vice should have little trouble in find.
ing jobs and should quickly slip bacl
into civilian life" Mr. Stonich said
"Most of them will be rehired BY
their old employers, in accordance with
the selective service act. The Others
will be actively assisted by the en-
ployment-security division as well al
the unemployment committees of TIT
selective service boards, and othel
local groups"
"Their service in the armed force
has made them physically fit, aler
and disciplined" he explained. eur
thermore, the army and navy do mor'
than train men in military Science
Some of the men receive instruction
in one or more trades under compe
tent instructors. That training, Otter
supplementing prior civilian worl
experience, makes them valuable tt
employers, especially now when ther'
is only a limited number of skilled
workers available"

classified in IA or LAO until he
has been examined by the local board
physician. The examiner will also
eliminate many of the physically unfit
registrants.
The present plan, it was pointed out,
will end the hardships which were un-
avoidable under the former system.
Heretofore, it was possible that after
giving up his position, closing his per-
sonal affairs, and disposing of prop
erty, a registrant might be rejected at
the induction station. Under the
present plan, the registrant will not
make any such definite steps until he
is sure he will be taken into the Army
Those who are rejected will merely be
given a Redistribution by their local
boards and will resume their activities
without any break having been made

on the subject held two weeks ago
at the University of Minnesota At the
present time veterinary and dairy
husbandry departments are checking
on the information which may develop
new theory on mastitis.
What has this fact to do with
"feelea?" DR.. Thompson found the
same bacteria in the tasty dish and
that it was what made the milk con-
geal. While the bacteria has an irri-
tating action upon the cows udder, it
has an opposite effect upon humans as
eaters of the jello-thick milk dish will
testify.
DR.. Thompson further says that if
he may test the cows of any herd he
can show which COW will produce
"feelea" milk without the use of the
customary starter taken from a pre-
vious batch, and moreover from
which teat it can be obtained.
Because of this connection he has
named his test the Finn Curd Test
for Mastitis.

That's 10000 more than all the wars
have cost the United States in its
history.
1t is shocking and it is the No.
reason why such organizations as the
st. Louis County tuberculosis and
Health association carry on penny
Christmas seal campaign each year at
this time.
The campaign will begin in Ely
next Monday and will continue
through Christmas day. 1t is in
charge of Miss Ann Novak, assisted
by Mrs. Ann StOll, school nurse.
To keep down the need for such in
situations as Nopeming, officials of the
Health Association are convinced
public educational work must con-
tinue. This is especially true during
the next few years when this country
is checking the health of all its youth
its selectees who will make up the
backbone of this country's defense.
But the parents at home should worry
less about war and its dire conse-
quences than about tuberculosis which
can really wreck thousands of lives
more each year than armed conflict.
War is terrible. health officials agree,
but tuberculosis is worse unless it is
trapped in its early stages and modern
medical pratices are used Immediately
to curb the damage the tiny T. B.
germ has been able to do.
Volunteer workers in every section
of the country are assisting the Tuber-
culosis and Health association carry
on its campaign because list funds are
limited and its work is becoming more
complex each year.
There is an important rehabilitation
program now being financed with the
Christmas seal fund-part of the
$4,000 raised each year for anti
tuberculosis work in this county One
of the outstanding workers in the
tuberculosis and health work in this
county has been Mrs W. c. Bray,
Biwabik. The rehabilitation fund,
from which loans are granted ex-
patients who want a chance to get
started again in private business, is
known as the DR.. C. w. Bray Mem
orial Loan Fund. Young as this part
of the program is, it already is be-
coming an important phase of the
tuberculosis program each year.
The more Christmas seals are sold
the more this fund can be built up
Keep in mind, says DR.. C. A.
Scherer, county health officer, that
tuberculosis strikes the hardest among
the young people in the country and
you will be anxious to do your part
Paul H. Van Hoven, Duluth, county
Christmas seal campaign chairman,
points out that the $4,000 raised
through penny seal sales is all that
operates the program each year. No
tax funds are collected for this health
program, which is now recognized as
one of the outstanding health activities
in the country.
Progress has been made since the
tuberculosis associations took hold 30
odd years ago. In ST. Louis county
the death have dropped from 276 in
1918-another war year-to ga deaths
in 1940s
This is part of the story behind the
1941 Christmas seal campaign which
will open when you receive a letter
from the tuberculosis and Health as
ISOLATION Monday-and 100 or more of
the penny seals will be enclosed.
