REGISTRATION
OF CARS SLOW

The announcement that motor
vehicle owners cannot obtain gasoline
ration cards until they secure their 1943
registration cards has not spurred
Ely car and truck owners to secure
their tags for next year.
In fact, registration of motor vehicles
is tagging far behind last year, accord
ing to figures obtained from Byrd
Brownell, deputy registrar.
Only 100 tags had been sold up
to yesterday, as compared with $50
at the same time last year.
The tags went on sale the first day
of the month Deadline for securing
them without penalty is Nov Is. There
is so cent penalty for the next 80
days following Nov. Is.
Radio announcements, credited to
governmental officials, said that the
1943 registration cards must be pre-
sented at the time gasoline ration
ing cards are secured Rationing of
motor fuel is expected to begin the
middle of next month.

DISTRICT SCOUTS
TO MEET NOV. 4

The annual meeting of the Vermilion
Boy Scout district committee, which
includes Ely, Tower and Soudan, will
be held on Nov. in the Community
Center, according to plans made at
the last meeting of the committee
held last Wednesday. Election of Of
ficers will take place and special
speaker is being planned. All persons
interested in scouting and boys work
and contributing members, are in
vited to attend and participate in the
affairs of scout work.
A six session training course for
present leaders and prospective leaders
was authorized to begin in November
with Ray Reigel, training chairman, in
charge of the course.
The district fall scout roundup and
court of honor will be held in two
sections this year because of trans
portation. The troops will meet
Jointly and the Tower and Soudan
troops will stage their own event.
Plans for these events will be made
in the near future.

Set Tax levies
For City Of Ely,
School District
SCHOOL DISTRICT-> CITY OF Ely
OF Ely
Special $4,000 POst-War
Fund to be Established
by City Council.

A tax levy of $248,253 for 1913 was
approved by the city council at a
special meeting held Monday night.
This is an increase of $13,239 over
the present years levy of $235,O14.
Both the levy for the coming year
and the present one are based on the
full 40 mills permitted by city charter,
but an anticipated increase in valua-
tions will yield the additional amount
for 1943.
The increased yield from taxation
will be augmented by a decrease in
the amount necessary to set aside to
pay state-held bonds and interest
Estate loan fund.-, giving the. city
approximately $4,000 additional for
local purposes. This figure is repre-
sented in the difference between the
levies for local expenditures, 1921, ,48O
for 1943 and $2O6,166 for 1912.
A balance of about $1,000 in the
permanent improvement fund also will
be carried over for next year, elm
mating the levy in this fund for 1943
A special postwar works fund will
be created by resolution at next
Tuesdays meeting, and $4,000 set
aside in it. The money will be
taken from the general fund.
Valuations for 1941 upon which the
levy for this year was based were
S., ,875, 1854. While the final figure for
the 1912 valuations has not been set,
it is anticipated that an increase of
1881 1854 will be shown. The levy for
next year was assessed against a val
uation of $6,206, 800.

EIGHT ENLISTED
IN RESERVE CORPS.

Eight Ely junior college students

ranen, air force.
An enlistment team in charge of
First Lieut.. H. H. Hamilton and
Captain Cummings of the seventh
service command, Omaha, Nebr., COM
pleted the enlistments.
According to their records Ely
junior college had the highest en-
listment percentage for its quota of
any school visited in the state. The
average in the state was 10 per cent
while Ely averaged SO per cent.
The enlisted men will remain in
school pursuing courses in mathe-
matcis, physics and other vital sub
jects necessary to officers training
until called by the seventh service
command. A number of them will
request active service at the end of
the present school year.
Out of twenty students who took
the comprehensive air force mental
test Thursday morning, seventeen
passed which is considered a high
percentage.
Students planning on enlisting in
the navy's vi program are getting
their final papers in order. AS soon as
they are complete, the navy enlistment
officer from Eveleth will come to Ely
to make final arrangements for ply
sical examinations and inductions at
Minneapolis.

Remember Pearl Harbor

The American flag should be flying
from every business place and resi-
dence in Ely. There are probably few
homes in this city from which one or
more boys or relatives have not gone
into the service of their country and
what would be nicer and more appro-
pirate than to have the colorS dis
played from every home and business
place in Ely. The city has been in the
forefront in every patriotic movement
so far in its drives for bonds, Red
Gross, USO and other funds and the
flying of the flag from every house
in town would further enhance its
reputation as patriotic city. One of
our outstanding summer visitors made
this suggestion to The Miner last
summer and also said if this were
done, Ely would have talking point
along with its many others of being
the Flag City of the Northwest"
Glen S. Locker, newly seated de-
partment commander of the Mime
sofa American Legion, is advocating
in all his talks the display of the
colors from every home in the state.
In an article in the Minnesota Le-
gionnaire, he stated, I'm my travels
about our state, it has come to me
forcibly that very few citizens are
displaying the flag of our country :.
What a wonderful thing it would be
to see Old Glory displayed from every
household. Such demonstration of
patriotism and loyalty would add
much to the "all-out" war effort in
every community" He then asks the
members of the Legion posts and
auxiliaries to make the matter one OF
their projects and try between now
and Armistice Day to have the flag
displayed from every home and bus
iness place in the country.

Scrap Drive Secures

People of Ely, Winton- Morse, Sec
ton Thirty and the adjacent rural
territories contributed enough scrap
last weekend to make 4,830 so caliber
machine guns. The same material,
which consisted principally of iron and
steel, would provide the scrap for the
manufacture of 483 "block busting"
2,000-pound bombs.
And not all of the scrap has been
collected.
Directors of the drive estimate that
a total of 121 tons of old metal were
collected. Everything from cuspidors
and coffee pots to automobiles and
heavy marine engines were con-
tributed.
Here are the tonnage figures as
obtained from salvage officials:

Buy Defense Bonds and Stamps

Our opinion of Communists in this
country was not changed with the
heroic stand Russia is making in this
war, in fact Russia has saved the
Allied cause Russia had perfect
right to adopt Communistic system
of government if that is what they
wanted after their years under the
despotic government. Communism over
there and Communism over here is
something else. They are something
entirely different. The Russians have
used Communism to get something to
improve the rank and file Of the
people. In this country they are
mostly crankS and reformers who ride
it for a hobby. H o. Peterson in
the saltwater News says there Is as
much difference between the Russian
Communist and the American brand
as there is between genuine Russian
caviar and plain American sucker
spawn.

Hatters Eager to Buy PeIts
War Boosts Lowly Rabbit

Ely hunters, because of the desire
of one A. Hitler to become king Of
the world, can return their efforts into
profits.
That is, they can enjoy the sport
with financial benefit to themselves
as well, if they hunt rabbits.
Here's the reason:
Rabbit fur makes felt needed for
hats. Much of the fur used for this
purpose has been imported from
countries now under Axis domination.
Hence, there is shortage.
Hatters are eager to buy rabbit
pelts, and the people of this state are
in a position to supply many of@them,

Louis Champa, salvage chairman

injury early Sunday morning when
struck by a piece of metal. The
wound was treated at the hospital,
but did not prove serious.

Bert Gustafson, who supervised the

still from five to 10 tons in Winton

of next week when it is necessary to
have a jury to try two cases on the
docket, viz: Mike Oreskovich VS.. Matt
Yernitich with Peter Moscatelli, at
torney for the plaintiff and D. A.
Bourgin, attorney for the defendant.
Another jury case listed for trial is
