Remember Pearl Harbor

At last the attorney general of the
United States has stored up enough
courage in the face of the New Deal
opposition to deport Harry Bridges
The American Legion and other
groups who believe in this country
have advocated the ousting OF
Bridges for several years but always
minions of the New Deal have
thwarted the move. Mr.. Biddle finds
that the fellow is an alien, that he
is a Communist and that the Commies
advise, advocate and teach the over
throw by force and violence Of the
government of the United States. Get
him a one-way ticket, or better still
get a shipload of one way tickets and
take aboard members of un-American
cults and bunds and Communists
brothers. Send them back to thu
countries they love. They will kick
just as hard over going back to theil
several Utopias as they do now over
our government. To make the trans
action complete, notify the U-boat:
that they are on their way. Foreign
nations do not want them any NOR,
than does America.

those who offer their lives to thei

On This
Occasion
HISTORICAL SOCIETY. :
A Few Observations on Matters
Material and Immaterial by
the Editor.

While the committee in charge OF
bond sales in Ely on Tuesday of last
week were a little Skeptical of being
able to reach the May quota of
$4,000, the end of the month saw the
quota exceeded by $5,94765. The
June quota figures had not up to
Tuesday noon been set but according
to aGvices received from Washington
through the press, the quota for June
will be increased over that of last
month.
The bond sale committee function
ing under the craftsmanship of Albert
j. McMahan, asks the people of the
city to keep up the good work SO
that Ely will not fall down on its
allotment. Industrial, business and
official circles have signed up for a
payroll total almost to a man and
those not yet on the list are asked to
join the groups doing all in their
power to assist in financing the gov
ernment's war costs. The Chandler
mine is signed up on the payroll
allotment plan 100 per cent for May.

Ely will be the convention
city of the Minnesota ranges
during June, with the Munich
palities conclave scheduled for
June 14-17 and the state
Moose association and auxil-
larry convention June 1928.
The two are expected to attract
some 1900 delegates and visitors to
this gateway city to the border wild
erness. With much talk about gasoline
rationing in midsummer, it is believed
that the conventioners will mix bust
ness with pleasure and make their
sojourn here their annual vacation.
The program for the Moose has been
announced. Frank Lindgren, a past
president of the state association, is
general chairman, and o. T. Frieds-
burg is secretary-treasurer.

Defense Bonds Mean Victory

The subject of the necessity OF an
education and a diploma is just now
uppermost in the minds OF the
American public by reason OF the
universal school graduation exercises.
The divergent opinions as to the need
make interesting reading but the con-
census of opinion is in favor of the
education and the boy or girl who
has it is lucky What to do with 1t is
another question and when you are
handed your diploma from the high
school or college, make up your mind
whether you have an education or
lust a scrap of paper. Many learned
man has had no school education but
has reached higher place IN lie.
To cite just few: Horace Greeley
Abraham Lincoln, Dwight L. Moody
commodore Vanderbilt Sam Jones

many others. Don't run away with
the idea that your parents are duds

JUNE BONDS DRIVE BEGAN TODAY
HOuse-tO-HOuse Canvass ia
be Made; May Sales
$4,000 OUer Quota.

The June drive for war
bonds and stamps was inaug-
urated in Ely today by the
10 members of the local Vic
tory Aides. Every family in
the city will be contacted by
the time the drive ends at 8
p. m. Saturday.
Every person will be given
the opportunity to sign a
pledge for the regular pur-
chase of war bonds and
stamps.
Where the pledges are obtained,
the Victory Aide will place in the
window of the residence a small
sticker signifying that I'VE Are
Buying U. S. War Bonds and
Stamps"
Mrs. NJ j. Fleming, chairman of
the Victory Aides organization and a
member of the local civilian defense
council, is in charge of the drive,
working under the direction of A. J..
McMahan, war bonds committee
chairman.
The quota for June has not yet been
announced by federal authorities, but
an effort will be made to top the
amount secured during May. 1t is
op+;n;,,ofod tbot El1, will ba oiyoy, O
substantial increase over the May
quota.
This city really went over the top
last month.
A total of $35,94765 was invested in
bonds and stamps, then, nearly $4,000
more than the quota of $4,000, accord
ing to figures announced by Nc
Mahan.
"This is very gratifying" McMahan
said, "but there are still many who
are not making regular purchases of
stamps or bonds, and the campaign
being conducted this week will enable
them to make pledges"
There will be no cercion, directly or
indirectly, in this campaign, McMahan
pointed out. 1t is hoped, however,
that everyone will take advantage of
this opportunity to pledge financial
aid to his country.
Even a small amount, loaned regu-
larly, represents to the government
full participation for a person who
cannot afford to save more. No one
gives his money to the government
when he purchases bond. He lends
it, at a rate of interest that will
amply repay him in the future for
f-denials of today.
The canvass today, Friday and Sat-
urday is being conducted to give
everyone an opportunity to help his
country by signing pledge to set
aside regular amounts for war bonds
and stamps.
In signing the pledge, several
thoughts should be kept firmly in
mind:
1. 1t is not an order for bonds, but
a promise to buy regular amount at
specified intervals.
2. 1t is confidential. The recording
official as a government representative
will keep it secret.
g. 1t is voluntary.
4. It is also to be signed by those
already buying bonds, because one oi
its purposes is to determine how many
people are participating in the pro,
gram and the extent to which they
intend to pursue the regular purchase
| of bonds.

Remember Pearl Harb0r

1t does not seem like % years ago
since Thos. s. Written removed from
Ely and Winton to take up his resi-
dence in Virginia. While we missed
him the effects of his excellent citi-
zenship are still in the minds OF those
who enjoyed his acquaintance either
in business or socially. He was an
untiring worker for the firm he rep
resented and also for the good OF
the communities in which he made
his home. His death at Hayward last
week is genuinely regretted. Few
places can lose men of Mr.. Whitten's
calibre and not feel the loss mos
poignantly.
