Kerrick Banker
In Long Parade

Returning from the Eucharistic
Congress parade in st. Paul last
Thursday, Louis Hogan of Kerrick
reported it as one of the longest
parades ever held in the Twin Cities.
Previous estimates of the number eX-
pected to take part placed the figure
at about 10000, but this was far sur
passed with over $4,000 in the line
of marchers.
Mr.. Hogan reported that although
the parade began at about two o.
clock, the members of the Holy Name
parish in Minneapolis, with whom
he marched, did not begin to move
until after 5 o'clock. The entire pa
rade took about three and half
hours to pass.
Within the fair grounds in st. Paul
the crowd filled the grandstand and
occupied approximately three-quart-
ers of the available space in the
circle formed by the mile-long race
track. A heavy downpour had
drenched the waiting throng shortly
before the parade began and as
benediction was completed at the fair
grounds, and the crowd moved home
ward, the place was deluged. The
marchers crossed the race track in
two inches of mud.

Camp Curry Work
Grew Is Reduced

On Monday of this week 103 men,
approximately one-third of the men
at Camp Curry, north of Willow
River, were dismissed because of in
sufficient funds to carry on the work.
The men will go to their various
homes about the state or seek en-
ployment elsewhere.
The reduction in the force was in
line with the nationwide slash in the
WPA budget recently voted by Con-
gress, and will affect 1718 workers
in the Duluth district alone.
About 100 men are left at Camp
Curry but later in July $50 state
game wardens will come there for
training. They will be in two groups
of rs, each contingent to remain a
week. These are Minnesota Wardens
only who are stationed at various
points throughout the state.

international News Review

none too willingly, has had to accept
German help in the war against the
Soviet.
There is in many quarters a ten
dency to judge the Firms harshly.
That should not be DONE In the first
place, we here in America do not
know all the facts; in the second
place, as long as Finland had to
choose foes, it would-with Russia's
recent attack in mind-be natural
that she chose that country, and in
the third place, if Finland had not
acted the way she did now, Germany
would have overrun the country with
out as much as an excuse. It was
simply position between the devil
and the deep sea-a matter of pick
ing of two evils whatever seemed to
be the lesser.
That Long Front.
Swedish and Finnish troubles are
merely a detail in the vast canvas
of the Russo-German war which
started on June %, when Germany
invaded Soviet territory. Reports,
unreliable and contradictory, picture
an immensely long front along which
fighting goes on necessarily, with
changing luck for the combatants
1t is not possible to state that the
Germans are making the biggest adj
vance, nor is it necessarily correct
to say that the Russians are having
the best of it. For, we simply don't
know. One day the Germans seem
to be ahead, the next the Russians
appear to have the advantage.
There is, through the maze of
bewildering bulletins, an impress
sion that the Germans actually
have penetrated deeper into Rus
STA than Moscow likes to admit.
There is also the very definite i'm
preston that the Russians are putting

Tone In
Slaughter Cattle
Curtailed Receipts Stimu-
late Demand; Hogs Suf-
fer Sharp Loss.

South st. Paul, Mimi, July l, 1941:
Recent sharp downturns in slaughter
cattle prices served to curtail market
ings and as a result of the supply
abridgment the trade displayed a
healthier tone. Mondays market, ac-
cording to the Federal-State Market
News Service, was generally steady,
while slaughter steers and yearlings
had a tendency to strengthen on the
following session. Most other kill
ing classes were steady with the close
of last week, although bulls were in
extremes Csc lower. Offerings of
stock cattle were light and that mark
ct also had a tendency to firm. Sew
eral loads good and choice light and
mediumweight steers topped at $1,000
and there were choice 806 pound heif-
ers at $1O.65. Medium to good slaugh-
ter steers bulked at $8.75 to $9.75.
Fourteen loads of Canadian cattle,
largely steers, which sold at $685.
to $40, arrived for Mondays trade.
Hog Market Says.
Hogs started the week sharply low
er and failed to recover on Tuesdays
session. Barrows and gifts were off
zoe to mostly Csc, while sows were
down soc to Csc. Tuesdays top was
5000 paid frequently for sorted
100 to 240 pound weights, with the
bulk good and choice 160 to 240 pound
kinds making $10.15 to $1,000. SINH
lar grades 24O to 800 pound offer
ings turned at 1895 to Stops and
weights up to 400 pounds cashed
downward to $3.50. Good sows I'M
der 400 pounds brought $40 to
$3.50 and heavier weights sold down.
ward to $3.50. Continued weakness
in the dressed pork trade plus slight
ly enlarged receipts influenced the
lower trend.
Producers have been forced to ac-
cept lower price levels for most
slaughter classes of ovine stock. Ma
tive spring lambs were rs to largely
so cents lower, with yearlings about
Csc down. Sheep have retained
chiefly steady prices. Western spring
lambs offered Tuesday scored prices
SOC under comparable arrivals last
Thursday. These declining prices re-
fleet the lower trend of eastern
dressed lamb centers, the outlet of
which remains very slow. Tues
days top recording included Washing
ton spring lambs at SLIPS, natives at
SLOTS. Best yearlings realized $8.75,
and slaughter ewes $3.50.

By GEORG STRANDVOLD

Attention is again being conferred
on the plight of small nations whose
only desire is to remain free, demo-
cratic, and at peace, and whose noble
aims are jeopardized by big, powerful
and brutal great-power neighbors.
This time it is Sweden-Sweden, and
again Finland.
The Stockholm government has de-
clared time and again that it wants
to maintain the strictest possible neu-
trality, but in spite of such repeated
declarations the German government
has forced that of Sweden to allow
transportation of $4,000 soldiers
through Swedish territory. 1t would
have been futile to object, for Hitler
has a none too subtle way of over
coming the objections of small ma
tons. So, Sweden opened her from
tier for the Germans, making it
known at the same time that such
a favor could not be repeated.
The incident, calling forth a
wave of British wrath, illus
trates the extent to which even
Sweden must needs be subservi-
ent to German interests.
And many observers fear that the
acceptance of Berlin's demand opens
the way for Sweden's being drawn &C
lively into the war.
Finnish Troubles.
Finland, too, had hoped to live in
peace, but the big fellows had other
plans. Germany sent troops to the
Finnish republic and, defying GER
tain treaties, actually stationed them
there. For that reason, Russia be-
gan to lombard Helsinki. Aabo,
Turku, and other Finnish cities, and
the Ryti government then was forced
to proclaim a state of defensive war
against Russia. Circumstances have
so shaped themselves that Finland,
