Kendall Foss, information man on the tour, said thousands of farmers contacted on the “dust bowl” tour did not appear down-hearted. Instead, he said, the farmers “were appre- hensive that the government was planning to depopulate any of the area.” He said Rexford G. Tugwell, Re- settlement administrator, who made the tour, assured the farmers that this was not planned and told them “as many or more people had volun- tarily left the drouth area than the | government could hope or plan to move.’ Foss said Mr. Roosevelt had asked Cooke to pre maps showing weather data, other material by regions for putting the committee's recommendations in- to effect.

Aug. 26, 1936, | Editor, Tribune: We sometimes hear speakers talk about the debt that the immigrants jowe our country, but they neglect to ;mention the debt that our country owes to the immigrant. What would the great northwest amount to today \if it had not been for the early immi- grants who settled here and cleared the forests and broke the sod? Their hagdships were almost insur- mountable, but they were not dis- suaded by disappointments and set- backs. They persevered in spite of all obstacles. Their optimistic spirit con- quered the drouth, the grasshoppers, the Indian uprisings, the bitter cold and the long, lonely winters. The Scandinavian immigrants who came to our country did not have to ge through a long process of Ameri- ‘canization for they wefe already im- {bued with the American ideals before they left their native land. They be- lieved in true democracy. They be- lieved in the rights of the common man and the ideals of representative government. They were opposed to tyranny and oppression. They be- lieved in the ballot box as the place to Settle political issues and they accept- ed the verdict of majority rule. In the fields of literature and music \the Norwegians have a rich heritage. Every well-read student of literature is acquainted with the writings of Henrik Ibsen, Bjornestjerne Bjorn- son, H. Wergeland, Welhaven, Jonas lie, Arne Garborg, Asmund Vinje, and Ivar Aasen. Students do not go iar into the field of music before they become acquainted with the composi- tions of Edvard Grieg, H. Kjerulf, L, M. Lindeman, Ole Bull, Johan Hal- vorsen, and Ole Olsen. In international relations we can learn much from the Scandinavian | countries, for Norway and Sweden have nob been involved in any wars for over 100 years. They have set- tled their disputes by arbitration and conciliation. Their influence for good-will has gone far beyond the borders of their countries. We all know of the far-reaching and marvel- ous work that was done by . Fritjof Nansen for peace and rehabilitation in the war-stricken ccuntries of Europe after the World War. - In 1905 when Norway decided that she wanted to become independent of JUST ONE OF A SCORE OF BRILLIANT NEW FEATURES . . . 20 between a ++» Just as Zenith .. . and other radio.

Bowman Furniture Co. 202 Broadway the Swedish king she simply told him of her intentions. He threatened to use force, but the Swedish workers and peasants firmly informed him that they were not interested in kill. ing Norwegian workers and peas- ants—and so there was no war. Very simple! The Scandinavian countries have not relied upon large armies and large navies to preserve peace, but they have relied upon good will, jus- tice, and a policy of “live and let live.” Instead of wasting billions of dollars on military equipment they have used their taxes to develop their own country, and as @ result they are a happy, contented, and peace-loving people. They do not have the extremes in wealth and poverty that we have. They do not have large monopdlies on one hand and filthy slums on the other. President Roosevelt is to be commended for sending a fact-find- ing commission “to the Scandinavian countries to study their cooperative system. This commission will find that Sweden has less unemployment today than she had in 1929 and that she is paying off her national bonds, which are not due until 1954. Econ- omists tell us that this prosperity in Sweden is due to a great extent to her cooperative system which dis- tributes the profits to the masses rather than concentrating it in the hands of a few. The Scandinavian countries are small in comparison with our own country, but there is much that we can learn from them, for the Scan- dinavians are an elightened and pro- gressive people. They are not bound by the past. They are not afraid of new ideas. They have the spirit of adventure that Leif Erickson had when he sailed uncharted seas and discovered America several hundred years_ before Columbus did. They are willing to go down new paths and to try out new ideas, while at the same time holding fast to the best| A. H. Hetzler, New Leipzig, from the past. This is the Spirit of the Vikings. It is this spirit that we need to fos- ter and encourage in our own coun- try. O. MYKING MEHUS.
