MINNESOTA.
NEW FARM
COLONY FORMED

Fifteen agricultural trainees of the
U. S. Veterans Bureau have recently
purchased land near Grand Rapids,
Minesota. All except three are in one
neighborhood, just south of Pokogama
lake. They are forming a real farm
settlement and are warmly welcomed
by townspeople and neighboring farm
ers alike. Everyone stands ready to
give them every possible assistance in
getting a good start.
Several of the men are married and
will bring their families to the settle
ment as soon as homes can be pre- {
pared for them. Then they will be in
a position to proceed with the devel
opinent of their farms. No man bot
more than eighty acres, and most of
them only forty. They plan on small

All the men were disabled in the

to make à brave fight to win their
own economic independence. These
men are all receiving training in prac

I the U. S. Veterans Bureau. Instruc
in
tion will be given them for a period
of approximately three years during
which time they will receive a main
tenance allowance of $100 or more per
month according to the number of de
pendents.
This training pay will enable them
to make payments on their land and
improvements, and at the end of their
training period they can obtain long
time loans, not to exceed forty years,
from the Minnesota rural Credits Bur
eau to take care of any unpaid bal
ance. At the end of their training
period, each man will have a practical
agricultural education gained concur
rently with the development of his
small farm. Each veteran will, there

work as a farmer.
Two instructors, graduates from a
college of agriculture, are located at
Grand Rapids to give all-the-year
'round instruction to these men in
both theoretical and practical agricul
ture. !

One of Most Sensational Features of

Rivalled that Tendered Tommy Mil
ton— Bitter Battle for Fifth Place
Decided After the 450 Mile Mark
had Bee n Passed— Story of the Race
One hundred and fifty thousand per
sons at the Indianapolis races saw the
Barber-Warnock special capture fifth
place honors.
Of the twenty-four automobiles that
! sped *ff at the start only eleven finish
ed and right up there with the best of
them was the Ford.
True, the Ford entry consisted of
seventy-five per cent Ford parts. But
this demonstrates quite vividly the
quality and construction of those parts
which were used.
Memories of "999"
No more exacting tests
given than those met in the Decoration
Day 500-mile grind, and the record of
the Ford in finishing in fifth place but
brought back the memories of the
days of the famous "999" speedster.
L. L. Corum of Indianapolis piloted
the Ford special, built by the Ford
dealer in Indianapolis. Last year was
the first time that a special built Foçd
was entered in the Indianapolis races.
Wins Honors
The Ford special, finishing fifth, fin
ished ahead of Frank Elliot, driving a
Durant special, who ended sixth.
C Durant, also in a Durant special,
finished seventh, Max Sailer, in a Mer
cedes one of Hie three German en
tries was eighth and Prince de Crys
tria, in a Bugatti, a French entry, was
ninth. Phil Shafer, driving a Dusen
berg, was tenth and C. Werner, in his
Mercedes finished eleventh.
That the Ford special finished ahead
of these cars and n.oted drivers, is no
momentary triumph. It is a lasting
one.

Glory for Ford En ? ry
The glory of winning the race, the
hon^r that goes with sua^ess and the
title of Speed "Kink" of course goes
to Tommy Milton in his H. C. S. Spe
cial with plenty left over for Howdy
Wilcox, who relieved Milton for fifty
laps when the battle for first place
was at its height, after having headed
the procession in his own car for
eleven laps. But the real man of the
hour, the hero of the populace, was
Lora L. Corum. driver of the Barber
Warnock Special, which despite the
impressive title was instantly recog
nized by the crowd as a friendly Ford
racing garb.
Mak e s Game Fight *
They started to "kid" Corum and
his car in a good natured way when
he showed up on the track in his tan
gerine colored "Hennery" weeks ago.
Once again he gJt a razzing bit of ap
plause when he qualified in seventh
position at th.? time trials. They
laughed and applauded when he drove
the starting line Wednesday. After
that they cut out- the laughter and
went heavy on the applause when they
saw the game fight he was making.
Outlasts Many Cars
As he kept up his steady gait with
out miss and outlasted car after car
of great reputation and enormous cost
the crowd warmed to him. When he
came into the pits for supplies at the
104th lap he got a tremendous hand,
and when he rambled home in fifth
place ahead of a lot of the best motor
staff of three nations he made a recep
tion that scarcely was exceeded by
that given Milton at the end of the.
great run.
Wins $3,000
- The Ford dealer's special entry fin
ished ahead of race models of foreign
construction that cost small fortunes
to construct. By capturing fifth place
L. L. Corum not only was enriched in
fame but was rewarded with a $3,000
prize for his work, wTiich amount was
the share of the day's spoils alloted to
the fifth placer. The one big feature
of the race this year w r as the Ford's
performance, declares a newspaper in
Indianapolis. Corum was the last
driver out of twenty-four to stop at
the pit for fuel and bis mount sur
vived after thirteen others had been
forced -out_of the battle. It is said
that the thousands in attendance gave
the Ford dealer's entry the longest
ovation ever given a race car. The
newspapers in Indianapolis featured
the Ford's work in "across the top"
headlines. The fact that few of the
vast number present expected the
Ford Special to put up such a game
and insistent battle brought a tre
mendous reaction 'when the last lap
was made. The race between the Ford
Special and Frank Elliott in his Du
rant. who finished a close sixth, was
a thriller as the time and miles per
hour record as showm in the chart ac
companying this article indicates.
Passes Durant
It was not until the four hundred
and fifty-mile mark that the Ford
Special passed Frank Elliott's Durant.
Up to this time the Durant had been
skipping along at a merry pace, fairly
well assured of fifth place honors,
perhaps better. But to the surprise
of the crowd, the Ford Special putting
burst of speed which proved of
an enduring nature, crept up steadily
on Elliott, and with a beautiful and
thrilling burst of speed succeeded in
passing him. As the Ford was never
overtaken by Elliott after that, Elli
ott's car not having the "pep" to over
take the fast flying Ford. Elliot drove
the entire race with the exception of
a few laps.
Those that built the Barber-War
nock entry had confidence that they
could construct a race car that would
hold up in the gruelling 500-mile race,
and today that confidence has been
rewarded. They had confidence that
the Ford parts used, frame, front and
rear axle, cylinder block, transmission
fly wheel, connecting rod, cam shaft
bearing and other parts making 75 per
ceit Ford units, would prove better in
quality than most of the other entries
and as good as any. This was found
to be true. The Barber-Warnock Com
pany, the Ford dealers in Indianapolis,

THE SACRAMENTO
POLITICAL PRISONERS
By RALPH CHAPLIN
Pub. Dept. Generar Defense Committee
(For the Federated Press)
Many people wonder why President
Harding did not include the Sacra
mento I. W. W. group in the prison
commutations he issued just before
starting on his trip to Alaska. At the
eleventh hour the president was :
duced to grant conditional releases to
the Chicago and Wichita* groups of po
litical prisoners. But the Sacramento
men were almost entirely ignored.
There is no fundamental difference
l>etween the Sacramento and the other
cases. U. S. Sen. Pepper and numer
ous other capable and . conservative
lawyers who have examined the case
thoroughly are emphatic on this point,
insisting that these federal I. W. W.
cases should be considered as a whole
and that all the political prisoners are
worthy of immediate and uncondition
al release. As far as comparative
guilt is concerned the Sacramento case
does not in reality stand apart from
the other cases. It is part and parcel
of the labor cases prosecuted during
the war under the convenient provi
sions of the espionage law. The con
viction took place at the height of the
war hysteria.
The Sacramento case differs from
the other cases in one respect only.
The "silent defense" adopted by these
men and adhered to throughout their
lengthy trial was unique in the history
of American courts. It was at once a
challenge and an accusation. And no
doubt this silent defense is held
against the Sacramento group by con
servative gentlemen who are horrified
to think that American workingmen
refused to spend money for a mockery
of a trial in court.
But the "silent defense" put the
Sacramento group in a position which
at present works to their disadvantage
No record was made in court of the
evidence and no exceptions were taken
to the admissability of evidence or
the rulings of the judge. They were
not represented by counsel and so it
was impossible for the defendants to
appeal their case to the higher courts.
Had they been able to do this the
counts in their indictment charging
violence would no doubt have been
dropped, as was done in the Chicago
and Wichita cases.
These men, in my opinion, are be
ing punished not for being mere mem
bers of the I. W. W., but for being
members of the I. W. W. in the mili
tantly anti-labor state of California,
m
as
the home of reaction, the frame-up j
and the open shop. Her corporation j
and land owners are prosperous, de- !
termmed, vindictive and very influ-}
Beyond the shadow of a doubt |
it is the orrogant business interests of ;
California that are instrumental in j
keeping the Sacramento men in prison.
