His own life surcharged his stories with authentic- ity. He rose to his eminence in letters from a tiny fishing village on the Norse coast—a hamlet in Helgeland, under the Arctic Circle, named Rolvaag, after the generations of his family which had lived | there. He had no clear purpose in coming to America. Anything new was welcome, he said in after years. He landed in New York, twenty years old, with 10 cents in his pocket and p:erhaps 100 English words at his command. Somehow he got to North Dakota and went to work for his uncle. After nine years of farm work and study, he was graduated from St. Olaf’s College in 1905 and re- turned to Oslo to study for a year more. In 1906 he accepted the chair of St. Olaf’s which he held until his death. He wrote his first novel when he was a senior in college and many others books in later years, but they were mostly about Norwegian subjects and were never translated into English. All those years he was storing up the experience which found ex- pression in “Giants in the Earth." The story is of Per Hansa, the stalwart Norse- man who helped build the West, and his wife, Beret, a sensitive woman who lacked the vision of her husband, and yearned for her old home. Of the book Mr. Rolvaag once said: As I look over American history I see two movements looming above all others, the Westward movement and the movement of immigration. In my novel I wanted tries for previous friendship; has resulted in re- taliatory action and markets closed to our com- merce in all parts of the land; has driven huge sums of domestic capital into foreign fields where, within foreign tariff walls, American capitalists escape the retaliatory and other tariff barriers and employ foreign labor in place of previously-paid American labor.” No one in this Nation is in a better position to see and to realize th: blighting results than is President Hoover. His experience alone as Secre- tary of Commerce equipped him to sense in de- tail the fundamental weaknesses of the thing which he in a time of great political pressure signed, which constitutes the great mistake of the Hoover Ad- ministration. That mistake can be remedied, and remedicd quickly. A repeal of the Hawley-Smoot bill would be inevitable if recommended by the President to Congress. That would throw the tariff back to where it was before the bill was enacted. And the weight that America has been carrying since the bill was signed would be removed from the burdened shoulders of the American people.
