And the board of Beltrami county has received no less criticism and not as much as others. Trouble is the draft problem is a new one to this age and such a draft was never known in the history of the nation. It is a new thing on the government and- everyone else and it certainly is on Beltrami county. In the first place, all effort was made to secure mentof honesty, in- tegrity and standing in their respective districts and the government gravely announced that such men would be required to spend their valuable time for not a cent, but as a patriotic duty to their country. Beltrami’s board is composed of men which fill to a marked degree the desires of the government. There are men on-that board who are of the best known and most successful in the county and they have been obliged to absolutely quit their business at great sacrifice and wrestle with prob- lems that even government authorities have been unable to solve without several attempts. Change after change has been made and arrived late in this part of the country, needed supplies have not been forthcoming, they had to be secured and instructions to the board weré to pay the bills out of their pockets and. that they would receive their compensation later. For some of the necessities required no provision was made for their payment and in this connection Sheriff Andrew Johnson has dug into his pockets for approximately $600 to $600 with which to pay bills. For even the slightest mistake which in no manner was the fault of the board, the board has been cussed from start to finish on the part of some. It has been a thankless job and it has been a costly one for many in the neglect of their business affairs for many days and they are not as yet through. In fact it will be many days. The draft board of Beltrami county deserves hearty commendation and co-operation from the general public, a few sore heads to the contrary. WERE FOR KLIMENHAGEN Here is a news story reproduced from the St. Paul Dispatch: One hundred retail meat dealers of the Twin Cities, at a meet- ing in St. Paul Wednesday, passed a resolution urging the public to cease using pork in any form ‘‘until such time as the prices are reduced to a normal condition and the packers show their patriotism by maintaining said normal conditions.” C. C. Klimenhagen of St. Paul, in presenting the resolution, declared pork prices have advanced to a point beyond all reason because the packers have boosted the hog quotations the past ten days to enable them to advance the price of cold storage pork. “Statistics show that 93,000,000 pounds of pork were in storage in some 250 storage houses August 1,”” Mr. Klimenhagen said. “There is no doubt that the greater part of this meat was put in at prices not exceeding 15 cents a pound, yet the packers have not lowered the price either of fresh or storage goods from the high prices asked last week. “At the time when every one is trying to do his patriotic bit £nd the general public looks to the meat dealers for lower prices,” he epid, “we find the packers are taking advantage of the in- ability of Herbert C. Hoover to investigate all food lines at once and ¢re making us look like thieves in the eyes of the public.” Them's harsh words, Nell. Why, the Picneer even once ventured to assert along with thousands of cther newspapers, voicing the people, that the packers were gouging the people and now doggone if a big retail meat dealer doesn’t admit be- fore 99 others that the people are getting it shoved into them properly by the packers. Tut! tut! Didn't some patriotic price fixer come out yesterday and assert that the farmers should sacrifice in the spirit of patriotism and take for their wheat what scme individual, not a farmer, thought they should? And to think that a prominent meat dealer should say what he did, that “we find the packers are taking advantage of the inability of Herbert C. Hoover to investigate all food lines at once and are making us look like thieves in the eyes of the public.” And when the speaker says the price of pork ‘“has advanced beyond all reason” because the packers have boosted quotations, ete., ete., it is really pathetic to a consumer or a man who has to depend upon his wages for a livlihood, and they're the backbone of these Great United States. Some day—perhaps—some prize package hired as an expert will, or some other cheap payroller will, rise and remark as in a similar vein as one has about the farmers of the northwest and their wheat ‘“the packers should sacrifice a little” in a time like this. And the packers will let out a wild horse laugh. Chicago school children are tearing out a page in their spellers on which the kaiser is lauded. And this, perhaps, is the first time in their little lives that they were not threshed for obeying a perfectly natural impulse. to cease passing resolutions to “expurgate.” No, it isn’t at all necessary for a woman a good aviator. A sure way to revive interest in the Congressional Record would be to bea “high flier” to make BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONAL (R R R R ERE R R RERE S ER R . DR.
