NO DESSERT?

New Ulm Daily JournaD
Pie is lettering. The supply of
sugar allocated to restaurants, al
ready cut once has been reduced
again. According to Robert R. Will
liams, executive secretary of the Ohio
State Restaurant Association, dessert
is liable soon to disappear from the
dinner table. Pies and other baked
desserts, requiring sugar, are in SER
ious danger. Ice cream has already
been severely ratiored. There remain
gelatines and prepared puddings,
which can be. bought pre-sweetened;
but the supply OF these cannot be
counted on.
Perhaps America, will have to adopt
the British custom of ending the meal
with a "savory," or highly seasoned
mouthful to stimulate digestion. Ex-
amples are devilled eggs, "angels
on horseback" or oysters wrapped in
bacon and friend in butter or baked;
herring on toast, served hot and with
mustard. But it is safe to say that
none of these, however tasty, will,
for Americans take the place of pie.

and expand it to meet an expected
demand. This approach is favored
by Mordecai Ezekiel, economic adj
wiser to the Secretary of Agriculture.
Mention may also be made under
this head of the proposal of Adolf
Berle to establish capital credit
banking system modelled after the
national bank-federal reserve struc-
ture. Its purpose would be to make
long-term funds available to indus
try for plant expansion. 1t would
make available at all times an ade-
quate supply of funds for investment
purposes and provide for non-com-
mercial as well as commercial in
creases in national wealth. 1t would
facilitate the expansion of public in
vestments in productive and useful
public works and social services if
and when private capital construc-
ton stops after the war.

RADICALS WIN WARS

Editor ASkOv American:
The moral and active attitudes of
the radical element to help win the
war is very excellent.
Communists of Northern China
have saved Generalissimo Chang
Kai-Shek'S army. Russia alone has
saved Europe and the Allied cause.
Our hopes are still for an up
rising in conquered countries as well
as in Germany and Italy. Who else
will start and lead that revolt than
the most radical elements?
These people do not only fight to
save democracy but have to fight to
save their skins.
Did not Goering tell the world that
Hitler's pretext was and is to de-
stroy Bolshevism? A very alluring
idea for many persons in the Allied
countries. Magazines and daily
papers are doing their very best to
support that Hitler idea.

lacking the Railroad Brotherhood;
that model union, so often used as
being an example to end strikes and
disputes between labor and capital.
Yes, the OK drivers oxen went to
the butcher and lot of old-fash-
Toned railroad equipment went in the
scrap pile to make room for some
thing better. But the Railroad Broth
erhood took care that men did not
go into the scrap pile. They are
trying not to. increase the mileage
per men.
Men are not machines. Why should
their speed be increased? Let the
better machine also be better for
those who operate it, not only for
the profit maker, shareholder, trav-
eler and shipper. Men and machines
can be friends instead of adding
more misery UNEMPLOYMENT.
War? Unions are not responsible
for that; labor does not want nor need
it. Capitalism needs and wants war.
Fight capitalism to prevent war.
But do not fight Jews and Unionism.
That means fighting for Hitler.

The populace moved out, but Dom
nelly remained to farm his land. He
was broken in wealth, but not in
spirit Possessed with eloquent pow
ers of oratory, he turned to politics.
He was characterized as "a unique
factor in the land, man of versatile
genius, infinite wit, prodigious in
dustry and quick human sympathies.
He was also gentleman of delight
full pugnacities wherever the Sage
of Nininger beloved, there the west
ern multitude damned the aisles."
He was elected lieutenant COVER
nor at the age of %, presiding over
three regular and one extra sessions
of the state senate. AS acting gov
ernor, he issued the call for the first
volunteers for the union army.
At 80, he went to congress, the
youngest member with the exception
of his friend, James A. Garfield.
Defeated for his fourth term in
congress, he turned to writing and,
in month during the winter of 1881,
he wrote Atlantis" a conjecture
about the existence of a prehistoric
continent in the Atlantic ocean. Next
came "Ragnarok," story of the or
igin on the earth. His "The Great
Cryptogram" cast doubt as to the
authenticity of Shakespeare writ
ings, suggesting that Sir Francis
Bacon was the real author. He de-
bated the proposition in two great
universities in England.

site are an historic landmark which
many of his admirers believe should
be preserved and made public

Sheep Shearing
School At Mora

Sponsored by the Agricultural Ex-

nesota, sheep shearing school will
be held at Mora April IL and ID.
Farmers from this area interested in
attending the two-day session are
asked to register at once at the county
agents office in Sandstone.
The Mora school is one of series
that have been established in Min
nesota in order to provide sufficient
trained help at strengthening time.
At present there is a shortage of
sheep shearers because many have
gone into other work or have entered
the armed forces.

PINE COUNTY RURAL
SCHOOL NEWS
A. E. GUSTAFSoN. County Supt.

Miss Margaret Gimpl of Hinckley,
has been accepted in the U. S. Navy
(WAVES). She will leave on Sat
urday, April 8. Mrs. AL Flor of
Hinckley, will take charge of her
primary room at Rutledge for the
balance of this school year.
The general trend in rural teach
ers' wages is an increase of 10 to 25
per cent in Pine county. Just how
some districts can balance their bud
gets with increasing costs is a great
problem. Perhaps forthcoming new
state aid laws will solve it. We doubt
this very much. In order to meet
the shortage of teachers and in
creased costs, we strongly suggest
that small schools conveniently To-
Gated should close and transport at
least for the duration"
We feel that it is the patriotic duty
for all active teachers and all ex-
perienced teachers who can possibly
do so, to aim to teach next year un-
less engaged in more important
work. We appreciate the splendid
response the past l8 months to our
call for more teachers. Thus far we
have been able to fill all vacancies.
We are glad for the volunteer
help of the Victory Aides, led by
Mrs. Frances M. Hurley of Hinckley,
who are planning an extensive sur
vey of trained teachers in Pine coun-
ty. This will help us and also the
entire state to meet the growing
shortage next year. Please give the
Victory Aides your fullest coopera-
ton in their efforts in obtaining this
valuable information.

A WORMS EYE VIEW
Editor Askov American:

Editor Askov American:
The most advantageous point from
which to watch the world is the
worms eye view-the low-down and
closeup.
Recently took such a glance at
an infinitesimal corner of a Lilliputian
sector of the political world in its
r-and-fly-apart meeting.
The goings on there confirmed my
suspicious that the average person
is separate and distinct flyspeck
of self-anointed egotism on bump
of self-conceit who feels called and
qualified to set the awry world Alright.
This is to be done by the physical
process of standing on ones hind
feet, waving ones arms and emitting
snarls with his mouth.
Since the first two men quarreled,
fought and one killed the other, man
has been lying in wait with neck
yoke for his fellow. The natural
impulse of man is to 60 forward,
even if backward, but some have
seen the wisdom of standing pat.
Those who tried to 60 forward got
their heads Dashed in (by each 9TH
err while those who stood pat got
the gravy. Those who stood pat
stuck together. Those who said they
wanted to go places flew apart like
a hatful of grasshoppers.
To the credit of those who hold
| back it must be admitted that they
have sense enough to agree on some
thing. They may pretend to fight
but in the end they lock arms, not
horns, and sing about what good
fellows get when they get together
while the others get it in the neck.
1t is my poor opinion that it's bet
ter to "give and take" a little than
to get nothing. l would rather have
one plank of a platform on the law
books than a yard of resolutions
spread on the minutes of the meet
ing. That's the reason that for SO
years I've been galloping along the
sidelines thumbing rides on what
ever seemed to be going somewhere
So my thumb is up. Always there's
hope, and the walking could be worse

HISTORIC LANDMARK
(By or Black in Minneapolis
Sunday Tribune)

On the southern banks of the Mis-
sissippi river, three miles west of the
city of Hastings, Mimi, stands an
old, dilapidated house, untenanted
but not empty, for within its faded
walls are the furnishings, library and
personal possessions of stormy fig
ure who, for 40 years, exerted an
important influence on the early his
tory of Minnesota.
This old house, its broad veranda
rotted away, is all that remains of a
boom town that mushroomed over
night to a town of over 500 popula-
ton, then, following the panic of
1887 dwindled away.
Many of the dwellings, stores and
even the hotels were moved to Hast
ings or were abandoned and left to
the ravages of time and weather.
The streets. are all but obliterated and
overgrown with trees and under
brush.
This lone building, overlooking the
broad Mississippi and the majestic
palisades on the opposite side, was
the home of Ignatius Donnelly, who,
at the age of "a, left his law prac-
tice in Philadelphia to seek his for
tune in the great northwest In
partnership with John Nininger,
brother-in-law of Territorial Cover
nor Alexander Ramsey, he laid out
and established the new town, Min
niger, which they dreamed would
some day become the metropolis of
the state.
Donnelly started newspaper,
"The Emigrant Aid Journal of Min
nesota," and promoted the project as
far as Philadelphia and New Or
leans. Some 200 houses sprung up
the first year and Nininger became
the center for gay parties and lively
political discussions. Lyceum courses
were given during the winter and
church services were held in private
homes.
Three hotels, two sawmills, grist
mill, pillow factory, dance pavilion
and eight stores were built. 1t was
fantastic
Here I am, but 26 years old, and
have already made fortune" said
young Donnelly as he paced the floor

talk about it in London and in Wash
ington, where Foreign Secretary An
thony Eden seems to be throwing
light on some of the issues which
will be discussed when the guns and
bombs are silenced.
Democratic Triumph.
On April it will be three years
since Hitler occupied Denmark, and
now, in spite of some earlier mis-
givings he "graciously" permitted the
Danish people to go to the polls for
the purpose of electing new par
lament. 1t is possible-in fact, there
is no other plausible explanation
that he really thought the Danes
would give him a jubilant vote of
confidence since he so wonderfully
had protected" their country; you
remember, that's what he claimed he
was going to do, in the meantime
helping himself to all the foodstuffs
he could possibly drag away from
Denmark. He must have expected
the gratitude of the Danish people
for these acts!
But what happened?
The result of the first actual
election held in Europe during
the war was an astounding re-
buff to Hitler. For the first time
since he began to steal other pe0-
pies lands, he has been told in
most smashing manner that
the democracy he set out to kill
is more vitality alive than at any
former time.
The world press has dwelt on the
Danish elections with great deal of
interest, for while Denmark is but a
tiny country, the way it voted is a
most significant straw in the wind.
Some Figures.
The present government is repre-
sentative of, and supported by, five
main parties, the so-called coalition:
affiliated with those are some minor
groups, and all these together are
designated as the democratic parties.
They cast 365,000 more votes
than in 1939-the time when the
last parliament election took
place-and the opposition, that
is, the parties who are either out
and out Nazi or at least Nazi-
shaded, were able to muster only
about 43,000-that is, 5000 less
than in the year before the be-
ginning of the occupation.
Circumstances being what they are,
with an unwanted protector" in the
country, the election cannot cause
the resignation of the not very pop
ular Scavenius government, but it
has served its purpose of telling the
rest of the world that in spite of
all adversely, democracy in Denmark
is as sound as ever, and ideas of
dictatorship are rejected as firmly as
they have ever been rejected any
where. --..-. -.
Therein lies the significance. There
in lies, too, as one of the New York
papers says editorially, the fact that
Denmark has spoken for nations
that have no chance to speak for
themselves"
