ton Daily GLOBE; William F.
White, publisher Winona Daily
NEWS and Charles Withers, ex-
ecutive editor Rochester POST
BULLETIN.
About half the newsmen pres
ent asked the President questions,
mostly about the foreign and in
ternational situation.
Cecil Newman of the SPOKES-
MAN and RECORDER papers
asked about the effect of the
American race problem and the
us. civil rights situation on the
nations international position. He
also asked the President about an
anticipated order banning the use
of federal funds for either private
or public housing which discrim-
mate against members Of minori-
ty groups.
The question was considered
timely because one of Mr.. Ken
nedy's campaign promises was
that he would if elected issue an
executive order which would halt
federal funds to builders, mortgage
finance firms and agencies which
support private and public home
obstruction and discriminate
against members Of racial and re-
ngious minorities in the nation.
Most of the editors We're pleased
with the reception of the Presi-
dent and with his knowledge Of
world affairs and store of inform
alton about conditions in Mime
sofa.
They were also pleased by his
apparent franlness.
He was questioned about the
taconite problem and the unem-
ployment situation on the Mime
sofa Iron Range; aid extension to
Yugoslavia; milk consumption;
''watered" ham ruling by U. s.
Dept. of Agriculture and the gen.
eral international situation with
emphasis on relations with Soviet
Russia and Communist China.

questions or made comments to
the President were John Cowles,
ST., president of the STAR &
TRIBUNE; Bernard Ridder, Jr., Of
the st. Paul DISPATCH and
PIONEER PRESS; Walter Nickel
son, of the New Ulm JOURNAL;
Bert D. Pearson of the Mesabi

the Hibbing Daily TRIBUNE; o.
B. Auguston of the Willmar West
Central Daily TRIBUNE and Jay
Dame, of the Austin Daily HER
AID.
Arch G. Pease, president Of the
Minnesota Newspaper Association
presented the President with an
Honorary membership in the Min

Some of the editors accepted an
invitation to attend a coffee party
In their honor at the office Of
Senator Hubert H. Humphrey,
sponsored jointly by Senator Nc
Carthy and Humphrey. President
Kennedy previously had announced
at the luncheon that both Mime
sofa us. Senators had sent re-
grets that they could not attend
the luncheon because they were
out Of the city.
Staff members Of both senators
were on hand at the coffee party
to chat with the editors who at
tended the coffee party.

An advertising solicitor for our
Minneapolis contemporary is going
around trying to convince adver-
Users that his papers circulation
is larger than the SPOKESMANS.
When he worked on the SPOKES-
MAN only a few months ago he
told advertisers how much greater
the SPOKESMAN'S circulation
was than the sheet mes now work.

Seems like the dear brother
ought to get his facts straight.
He was either wrong when he
worked for this paper or he's being
careless with the truth!

176O by Elizabeth Skinner, who collected her fares
in tobacco, and until 1885 when the boat was
powered, it was pushed across the river by small
barge rowed by several men,
Oxford also is town of comfortable tree-shaded
yards and rOse-covered houses. There are Barnaby
House, built in the early 17OOs, and the Grapevine
House, named for huge vine brought in 1910 from

John Moll lives in one of the towns two brick
