WHAT DO YOU THINK?


they would let me see a copy of the
story when it came to them, anC
they assured me they would. How
ever, it will mean little. 1t hasn't beer
put into English at all, even the
original copy is written in Swedish
on typewriter with characters pc
culiar to the language.
However, as almost 500 of oul
subscribers are Scandinavian we
thought it might be fun to print q
couple of paragraphs and see if any
one can send us translation.
Below are the beginning and clos
ing paragraphs of Mrs. Strom' s
story as it will appear in IDUN Swed-
ish Women's monthly magazine.
Helena, Montana mars.
Den 13 oktober 1911 lamnade
torparsonen Hugo Aronson sina
tratofflor pa landgangen till Diet
fartyg, som forde honom till Hull,
England, for vidarebefordran till
Boston, USA.
Nuvarande guvorner Hugo Aron-
SON i staten Montana visste inte
da, att delta var en- symboIisk
handling, SYMBOLISM for Diet land
han begav sig ut att erovra. Man
samalar sit mod, ser sig into till
baka, kliver bokstavligen ur Diet
man ager och har, och borjar pa
nytt sa koloniserades Amerika och
sa byggdes Diet ameriganska sam
ballet av folk med arbetsvilja,
sjalvfortroende och en- fantasi, som
strackte sig langt bortom skogs-
brynet! Wagon mot Stjarnbaneret
var lang, svar och bitter men man
som Aronson angrade sig aldrig.
Governor Aronson hoppas pa
CODA, tider foer sin stat och aan
aer angelaegen att med slit arbete
haer aatergaelga America foer vad
denna continent betytt foer honom
Elva granger har han rest oever
Atlanten och han har inte gloemt
slit gamla fosterland och talar en-
hedrande god svenska. Hans slaekt
i Vaestergoetland vet att han aer
trofast och generoes.
Delta aer hans hem han aer helt
am erikan
Hugo Aronsons karriaer aer
unik och Diet trivsammaste med
honom aer att han faktiskt foere-
faller NEST foervaanad sjaelv.
| hope you all heard our "dear
ohm" over the air Wednesday night
hen he called all us nasty kids
ames. | hope you will read the ads
2 told you were going to be in the
ally and weekly newspapers and lis
N again to him when he goes on
le air in the future with "debunk"
I the gas increase fight.
Keep track Of all the time and
,ace because when the Montana
over Gas Company comes again be-
re the Railroad and Public Ser
ce Commission for an increase,
meplace in the "cost of doing bust
sss" you're going to have to pay
II all of it g.. at retail, remember.
This retail - Wholesale - business
Is me confused If the ACM gets
Is at wholesale about 20 cents per
ousand cubic feet and we pay an
erage of 81 cents at retail there's a
'0%o markup somewhere in between
at | can't understand, and if | did
| be darn liar, so don't misun-
rstand me. When John tells us
csc things over the air that's what
e man means.
l don't think he really means to
ay 'Dracula" in his radio dramas,
t he sure scares a person to death
len he says We won't be able to
We gas if we don't pay more. It's
TT of wierd who-dun-it presentation
at is characteristic of the attack
lde on anything involving the OPP
sition to corporate control. They
| their employees they won't get
cd wages, they tell US we won't get
at, they tell everyone the company
i turn off the gas and go home.
ID on cue we SILVER and weep and
ad with them to have their way
just stop soaring us to death.
