PENNIES
10,175 pennies.

10,175 pennies.
A SIS defense bond, an $18.75 de-
Tense bond, So in stamps.
This transaction was completed at
the Ely post Office last Thursday by
Miss Barbara Matesha, Ralph j. Will
liams, Jr, and Postmaster Stuart
Schaefer.
About 10 years ago Miss Matesha
started saving pennies. and last week
she converted the $500 she had accu-
mulated into a SIS purchase price,
defense bond and So in postage stamps
The pennies, weighing rs pounds,
had to be trucked to the post Office,
and filled small cedar chest 16 inches
in length, 8 inches in width, and 6
inches in depth. The pennies had been
counted and neatly rolled into pack
ages.
The same day Williams came in with
$18.75 in pennies in paper bag, and
purchased an $18.75 bond.
Incidentally, these copper coins will
now go back into circulation and will
save Uncle Sam from diverting addi-
tional amounts of this valuable war
metal to coming of new ones.

EVERYONE MUST BE FIRE WARDEN
Forest Service Preparing
for Critical Times Ahead

moisture from melting snow will
quickly drain off. Even so, heavy
spring rains could eliminate any spring
fire danger.
The forest services lookout towers
and two border fire guard stations may
he called upon to serve in a dual
capacity as air raid watching posts.
All are connected with Ely by tele-
phone, except the Kekekabic tower
which has a two-way radio connec-
ton. An additional guard will prob
ably be posted at Portage River on
the Echo trail.
1t is anticipated that the forest SER
vice will have two seaplanes in opera
ton here. Additional guards may be
necessary to replace CCC service not
now available.
The forest service will continue to
cooperate closely with the Canadian
Forest Service in guarding border
territory. The Canadian rangers have
two-way radio connection with their
headquarters in Fort Francis and Port
Arthur, and they pioneered the employ
ment of seaplanes in fire work.

Remember Pearl Harb0r

Willis Thornton, one of the country's
foremost journalists in writing on
"They Have Forgotten Pearl Harbor"
says:
Washington had his sunshine
patriots and Lincoln his copperheadS.
Today we have a new and equally
obnoxious breed-false front patriots.
They erect with loud talk and great
fanfare of activity magnificent
structure of patriotism. But it falls
fiat with the first stiff breeze because
it has a false front.
Specifically these big takers and
small doors noisily buy defense bonds
and stamps one day and very quietly
cash them the next. Obviously this
sort of thing is about as helpful to
our war effort as is Hermann Goering
"For instance, the Cleveland post
Office reported defense stamp sales OF
$274,O93 one week but it gave back
$4,000 to persons who did not wish
to keep these stamps or trade them IN
on defense bonds. This was net
seIl-out of Uncle Sam, General Mac
Arthur, Admiral Nimitz, the thousands
in front line fighting and the millions
on the home front of 81 per cent.
Reports of such redemptions, some
more and some less, come from other
sections of the nation and piled up tt
a total of $6646,712 stamp redemption!
in December. That is enough none!
to equip a fleet Of flying fortresse'
and slap the Japs with a punch theh
honorable ancestors would hear.
"Some of the these stamps undoubt
edly were redeemed in bonds. Som'
persons were forced to cash them be-
cause they lost thir jobs or suffered
other financial jolts. Nevertheless, tn
percentage remains too high if We ar
going to do much about Pearl Harbo
other than throw out our chests ant
predict dire things for the enemy"

SEEK ROAD TO
Eastwood LAKE
Wilderness Policy Controversy
Looms as Settlers Ask
Route to Border.

A continued hearing in regard to
legalizing a road to Eastwood lake
from the Fernberg Trail through the
roadless area of the Superior National
Forest will be conducted in the Section
Thirty school building Thursday, March
10.
Eight residents of the Eastwood lake
area have petitioned the Fall Lake
township board of supervisors for the
road, and after an inspection of the
proposed route for the roadway and
three-hour conference Saturday
morning, the hearing was continued at
the request of Board Chairman Ted
Pennala.
Emmitt Jones, Two Harbors, Lake
county attorney, has consented to be
present at the continued hearing to
provide neutral legal advice for the
township board.
Glare Hendee, Duluth, forest super
visor; Marley Thompson, Milwaukee,
regional law officer for the forest
service, and Frank Legat, ranger for
the Kawishiwi district, represented the
forest service at the hearing.
The petitioners were represented by
Jerry Harri. st. Paul attorney, and
Thomas Harri, Ely, who owns land
over which a portion of the road will
pass. The petitioners include Henry
Chosa, Thomas j. Chosa, Fred Chosa,
Mrs. Mamie Chosa, Emil johnson,
Frank Chosa, Theodore Dettburn, and
John Mosnik.
The proposed road would connect the
Fernberg Trail at point II miles
east of Ely with Wind bay on Bass
wood lake.
The petitioners say they are voters
and own or occupy real estate within
three miles of the road sought. Land
over which it will pass is owned by
the Langdon-W Warren Mining company
and Frank Warren, both of Mime
apolis, the United States of America,
and Thomas Harri.
The petitioners contend, Attorney
Harri said, that they have a right to
ingress and egress to their property
on Eastwood over a roadway as auth
orized by the national forest act of
June 4, 1897
. The immediate point to be decided
is whether the township board has
jurisdiction to legalize a road over
federal lands.
The roadless, or wilderness. area
policy of the forest service has been
a long established one and was con-
summated under the formal approval
of the secretary of agriculture and
chief of the forest service.
Roads have been barred in iris wild
erness area to keep travel as primitive
as possible and to preserve a unique
lake area in perpetually primitive
state.
There are three such areas in the
Superior forest totalling about one
million acres in size, but the only
place in any of them where settlers
are numerous is on Eastwood lake.
There have been repeated attempts to
legalize a road to the lake.
Members of the town board hearing
the petition are Pennala, chairman,
Toivo Harri, and Martin Carlson.

Buy and Keep Defense Bonds

Freedom of speech is what We are
fighting for but do We have to allow
openly profeSsed agents of the Axis
to shoot off their zap? The current
trials of NaA spies prove that the
bunch is well entrenched in the country
and that fifth columnists are allowed
to spread unwholesome rumors even in
the range towns. The FBI is now
working on the ranges looking up a
list of potential enemies for future
reference. Better keep your mouth
buttoned up. You may be called upon
to prove the drooling vaporings Of
an inspired brain-or rather no brain
at all.

Mr., Mrs. Louis Perushek's
Boys Serving in Cavalry,
Artillery, Infantry.

Four sons of Mr.. and Mrs. Louis
Perushek are serving in the armed
forces of the nation, and fifth may
possibly be indicted into the army.
They are:
Sgt. Stanley Perushek, Is, in the
coast artillery, Long Beach.
Pvt. Tony Perushek. 81, in the in
fantry, Fort Leonard Wood, Mo.
Pvt Edward Perushek, %, in the
cavalry, Maria, Texas.
Pvt. Joseph Perushek, q. in the
coast artillery, Fort Rosencrans, Calf.
A fifth son, Louis Perushek, Jr., 80,
resides in Detroit, while sixth, Leon
ard, Is, a Memorial high school
sophomore, is still too young for
service.
For number of sons in the army,
Mr.. and Mrs. Perushek rank among
few in the state.
Mrs. Perushek was in the midst of
biscuit baking when she was inter-
viewed about her sons.
"The week Edward was born my
brother canton Kozar) went into the
last war, and if someone had told me
then that would have four sons in
the next war I never would have be-
lieved them," Mrs. Perushek said.
"Not all the boys will come home
well and healthy" she said, shut I
hope and pray we will win"
Stanley began the Perushek service
record when he enlisted in December,
1885. He urged his brothers to follow
him, and Tony, then only Is, was the
second to CO. He enlisted in October,
1899.
Last year Edward and Joseph an
swered Uncle Sans call to fill the
ranks of the selective service army.
Edward, who was employed in Colo
RADIO, was drafted on March 5, and
Joseph on June 5.
Since then the nation has gotten
into war, and army service is now of
an entirely different character. Are
Mr.. and Mrs. Perushek apprenticeship
about their sons? Yes, as every other
parent who has boy in the service.
But they are proud of their boys, as
well they may be.
Stanley, Tony, Edward and Joseph
all write regularly, and occasionally
enclose pictures of themselves and
their activities.
Mr.. and Mrs. Perushek are pioneer
residents of Ely, and Sunday Mr..
PeruShek marked the fortieth year of
his residence here. Mrs. Perushek,
like her husband, came here from
Yugoslavia, and she will have resided
here 40 years next fall.
In April they will observe their
thirty-fifth wedding anniversary. All
OF their sons, and three daughters as
well, were born here.
Mr.. Perushek is secretary of lodge
No. of the American Fraternal Union.
which has sent 10 members into the
| armed services of the nation. Mrs.
Perushek is secretary of lodge No.
108, SNIP.
MIR. Perushek has a 4O-year service
record as miner, being employed first
at the Chandler and now at the
| Pioneer.

$4,000 Injury Claim,
is Filed Against City;
Mine Inventory Asked
SidelUaIk Mishap Results
in action Started by
Local Couple.

Two personal injury claims totaling
$1,000 have been filed against the city
Of Ely.
Mary Glavan is asking $4,000 for
injuries she said she sustained as the
result of fall on an icy sidewalk
near No. Lawrence street Jan. Is, and
John Glavan, her husband, is seek
ing $1,000.
In the notice of personal injury
claim read at the council meeting
Tuesday evening. Mrs. Glavan said
that the sidewalk at the point of fall
was in dangerous, wrongful, unlaw-
full and negligent condition" by reason
of "snow, ice and rlfts" which the city
had allowed to gather.
AS result of the fall, she said she
had sustained a conclusion of the
brain, Commissions and abrasions of the
head, back, arms, legs, hips and other
parts of the body.
Her husband is asking $500 for medi-
cal services incurred and to be in
CURED, and $500 for his wife's services
and companionship of which he said
he has been deprived as a result of
the injuries.
Peter Moscatelli. city attorney, told
the council that he would call the
claim:
A "close question of law" in
respect to liability.
He asked the council to see that
record was kept of when streets and
sidewalks were sanded, something that
has not been done in the past.
The matter was referred to Mosca-
tell, who said that the two had year
in which to bring action against the
city. The notice listed D. A. Bourgin,
Virginia, as attorney for the couple.
The state industrial commission has
reopened the case of Joseph zobitz
VS.. the city in which Zobitz was given
an award for a hernia he claimed to
have suffered while working for the
city.
Zobitz now claims that stomach
trouble has resulted from the injury,
and hearing will be conducted at
some time in the future.
Howard McAdams, Duluth, county
mineral valuation engineer, will be
asked to come here to make an in
ventory of certain mineral property.
This action was taken by the council
at the request of Assessor Fred James.
The assessor and the council will meet
70 l,,ofinyoc
Valuations of mining plants and
equipment both on surface and under
ground will be established by Nc
Adams. The last such appraisal was
made in 1929, James pointed out.
February expenses totaled 500, 712.85,
Clerk A. o. Knutson reported. About
$4,000 are fixed charges, leaving that
for current expenses near the amount
available monthly.
He cautioned the council however,
that If any projects are began, cur
rent expenses win have to be cut.
At the request of Mayor John Kapsch
a resolution was approved requesting
the WPA to maintain Ely's present
quota.
A communication from Rep. William
A. Pittenger stated the resolution
asking that Ely be declared a defense
housing area was now before the
housing area was now before the
defense housing coordinator.
E. L. Conant, Chicago, a representa-
tive of the division Office, was here
last week investigating conditions. A
letter from this office stated that a
report was being compiled.

TAKEN IN for a 5000 PROFIT
without some official KNOWING

for a dollar a day more to live on,

Go Workers
Aid "Serop the
jap" Drive

The UE received a very high
compliment from Judge Robert y.
Martin this week for the volun-
teer assistance given last Satur-
day to the Scrap the Jap" COL
lection drive.
More than 100000 pounds of
scrap iron was collected by the
500 volunteer workers who turned
out from all over the city. Every
one had a good time, and did a
real job, according to Judge Mar
tin.
In expressing his appreciation,
the Judge said, II am especially
grateful to the CLIO for its splendid
support in this drive. The UE
had more adult volunteers than
any other single group" Locals
represented among the volunteers
were Frigidaire Local 801, Master
Local 704, and Amalgamated Local
768.
Thanks, Judge, and we say
Keep up your good work."
Let's not forget this Saturday
either fellows. It's the last day of
the drive. Join the volunteers and
help scrap the Jap.

wonder-JUST WHAT ARE WE p
WE speak of democracy with
reverence. Yet, in practice, it fails
to appear. That is, on the part of
a certain class, who think that
democracy is only for the masses.
That class is CAPITAL. We have
every reason to believe that cap
ital has only PROFIT at heart in
this war. CAPITALS very actions,
from the events of the past few
months, in Dayton, O., alone, be-
speak an ill-omen of pseudo pat
riotism. For example,:
l. In the General Motors plants,
there are countless machines that
can be converted to defense work,
AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN
MONTHS AGO. At the present
rate of conversion NOW in prog
ress at General Motors, it would be
possible for Hitler to take over
Frigidaire and continue the pro-
duction of ICE BOXES" without
re-conversion. 1T COULD NOT
BE, NO, IT'S ABSURD, TO EVEN
THINK SUCH A THING, THAT
GENERAL MOTORS MAY HAVE
SUCH A PLAN IN MIND 20?
2. The two OUTSTANDING
newspapers in Dayton, O., viz: the
Dayton Daily News and the Jour-
nal-Herald, also seem to feel that,
perhaps, were HITLER the BIG
issue in this country at present,
they might condescend to withhold
their attacks on Labor. AS it is,
from their editorials, one gathers
that it is mor important to bite
the hand that feeds them, than to
help it. HITLER IS SECONDARY.

AirtemP and
DEFENSE

The Shop Committee and Man.
agement at Chrysler Airtemp have
agreed to set up a War Production
Committee.
This is total war. We are all
under fire-soldiers and civilians
alike! No one is a spectator. We
are all belligererts. To win we
must fight!
Through the cooperation of
Labor and Management we have
brought about very nearly a 1000
mark on a voluntary payroll
check-off for defense bonds. There
is no question of our reaching the
entire 1000 mark by the last of
this week. This shows the willing
ness of every employee to do his
part to help buy the implements of
war.
