FASTENERS WANT
INFORMATION

On an average of thousand
people a month write to Com
missioner ]. H. Hall Of the
states public bureau, requesting
infor ..iation regarding Montana.
The name, address and occupa-
ton of each seeker after informal
ton is turned over to the Sec
setary Of every commercial club
in the state and to every real
estate dealer or firm Of which
the bureau is aware. In addition
he replies to letters received,
giving the specific information
requested, and sends to the
writer copy of the excellent
book Montana" recently issued
by the commission. In this way
the work of bringing Montana
to the attention Of the outside
world is carried steadfastly on.
Until quite recently, Commits
sioner Hall merely turned over
to the commercial club secretaries
the list of names Of those who
had written for information, but
this work has been broadened,
and the names are also given
to the real estate men in the
belief that with an active intrest
in securing the new settle, the
realty man will be glad to be
kept in touch with those who
may some day come to this state.
In this work the commissioner
desires to be absolutely impartial
and while practically all of the
real estate men in the state are
receiving the weekly lists issued
by the bureau, any new firm or
any old firm which has been
overlooked can be put on the
list if they will signify their
desire to receive the names of
th,se who write for information.
While the publicity end of the
bureau is face to face with the
stern facts that there is no
appropriation for it's maintenance
next year and that the issue of
the "Montana' booklets is
almost exhausted, Commissioner
Hall is quite hopeful that some
arrangements may be made
whereby the bureau can be made
until the next meeting of the
legislature. A. the lack of an
appropriation is generlly credited
to nothing more than a clerical
error in enrolling the general
appropriation bill, it is believed
that some way will be found to
carry on the work of the bureau
for the next year.
