UNEMPLOYED MEN
ASKED TO REGISTER

Throughout the country the public
employment services are co-ordinating
their efforts in an intense drive to
register all available workers As the
defense program moves forward, it is
expected that there will be calls for
men in practically all categories.
Edward C. Stonich, local manager,
announces that the local Office of the
Division is urging registration of every
unemployed wirker who is available for
work or training in defense jobs and
of every person with an urgently need
ed skill which is not being used in his
present job
To maintain a current inventory of

BEAVER SEASON
OPEN SATURDAY
To-Day Take to End April z;
Ice, Snow Give Beaver
Sporting Chance.

MinneSota's To-day beaver season
will start Saturday, with ST. Loui:
and Lake counties open except for the
areas within the state game refuge and
tributary to or on the Lake Superior
watershed
Eight beaver per license are per-
mitted. The season ends on April 7.
All beaver taken must be submitted
to game wardens with tails attached
intact to the hides within five days
following the seasons close for seal
ing and inspection.
Licenses may be purchased for $3.50
each. A fee of 81 is assessed for each
tag. A man getting his limit in beaver
viii pay S1O.50 in fees.
While many local trappers feel that
the season is too early for this area,
the department of conservation says
that in drew criticism" in 1889 for
the lateness Of the season then, which
was May %.
From a conservation standpoint,
however, the early season, trappers
say, will make it difficult to trap out
an entire house, and they believe that
only few animals will be taken from
each one
The department has announced that
in 1889, 2,70o licenses were issued and
11,O48 peltS sealed.
1t estimates that the earlier sea-
son this year, because it will make trap
ping more difficult, will hold licenses
to 1000. With the same trapping sue
cess ratio, the take would be 5000
beaver
In opening the season, DR.. w. J..
Strunk, conservation commissioner said
that steps were taken to preserve an
adequate brood stock and to establish
a closely regulated legitimate fur crop.
Strunk termed the season a "rebuke"
to outlaw beaver trapping.
Minnesota, he continued, is follow
ing the example Of Wisconsin, which
has had seven successive annual sea-
sons and one of 81 days this year, and
Michigan, which is having its eleventh
season.

Pete estimated that from $4,000 to

as soon as conditions demanded it,
that traffic over the road be re-
stricted.
Such restriction now is unwarranted

Rare Procedure to Probe
Charges Made Against

BY the Associated Press.
A Senate committee will begin
public inquiry tomorrow into the
conduct of a Senate member prior

cedure rarely used by Congress.
After 10 months of preliminary
study, the Senate Privileges and

he was elected last year. and which
he was permitted to take without

The charges, filed by a North Da-

Ordinarily, when question of fit

the election campaign. In fact,
whether it has authority to con-
slider earlier acts is disputed by at
torneys in the present case, though
Senator LANCER has informed the
committee he desires to be heard
on the merits of the charges.
One of the few times the question
has arisen in the past was in 1893
