War Summary

Brazil is now in the war against
Germany, her decree of neutrality
between the entente allies and
Germany having been revoked. 1t
is not known whether she will
actively engage IN the war. but at
least her moral influence is to be
used against the Teutons.
The Canadians have taken an
other bite out of the German line
near Lens, the important coal cen
ter. After bitter fighting against
some of the crack Prussian guards
and through wire entanglemcnts.
when the work of consolidat ting the
positions won was begun, they
found themselves within a mile of
the center of the town. The fall of
the town itself evidently cannot
long be delayed.
on the other fronts in France
there have been nothing but bonn
hardments. In the other theaters,
also, there have been only minor
operations.

FOOD CONTROL NARROWS
TO PROHIBITION FIGHT
Debate in Senate Develops
Into Contest Over Ques-
tion Of Wine and Beer.

Washington, June 2s.-Thc fight in
congress over government control of
food and other nccessaries today vir-
tually narrowed to the question of
prohibition.
The house control bill as amended by
the senate agriculture committee was
substituted in the senate for its orig
inal draft. and debate proceeded, Sen
ator Lodge opening the prohibition
contest with a speech in favor of con-
tinuing manufacture. of beer and wine.
The bill as it now stands would pro-
hibit the manufacture of all intoXicat-
ing beverages, but empower the presi-
dent to exempt wines.
johnson and Kellogg Favor.
Senators Johnson of California and
Kellogg of Minnesota delivered pre-
pared speeches on the general fea-
turs of the bill promising it their
support as n war measure.
Lapse of several days in general
discussion and delivery of set speeches
on other provisions before the pro-
hibition fight develops in earnest is in
prospect There is pending n motion
by Senator Hardwicll to send the bill
back to the committee on the ground
that prohibition and other important
sections are unconstitutional.
Fight Centers on Beer and Wine.
Senate sentiment is said generally to
favor stopping manufacture of dis
titled spirits so the debate will center
| upon beer and wines. Resort for the
first time to the senate's new cloture
rule in an effort to hasten action may
be attempted although there is such
| a marked division of opinion over the
question Of permitting brewing to con =
tinue that leaders say it would be i'm
possible to secure cloture.
Senator Chamberlain. in charge of
the bill, said tonight he hoped general
| speech making would end tomorrow
and that the senate by Saturday would
begin considering committee amend
ments expected to take several days
The prohibition sections under such
procedure would be reached last.
Sees Worse Things Ahead.

Guard Tragedy Interest
Shifts to Investigation
Probable Action of Army
Officials Overshadows
Shooting Itself.

what is the army going to do about
guard camp ConditionS?"
That question overshadowcd interest
in the fate of Private Arthur Kline
yesterday. Public attention has shifted
from the tragic death of Corporal
Clarence r. Shaw last Tuesday morn
ing after a rcvel in his wide open"
guard camp in Hell Gate canyon. to
the expected investigation of con ndi-
tions back of the tragedy by western
headquarters of the United States
army.
Higher Officials May Act.
Captain William =. Morse, COM
handing Company T. and in charge of
the guard camp in which wine, women
and song led to fatal shooting, has
promised an investigation, but it is
now believed that the matter will be
taken out of his hands by higher an
thorities. The extent only of the probe
i is unknown; the question is what one
of the several following possible ac-
tons will be taken:
Possible Actions.

Il have to have a new head in my
tambO."
Il can't get a dress suit anywhere"
How do you expect fellow to play
end without any bones?'
These and similar queries marked
the closing rehearsal of the Missoula
Swimming Pool Minstrels, without
doubt the greatest and most elaborate
show which has been prepared for
Missoulq's approval by local talent.
With the exception of the jast- hour
details. which require a certain amount
of LEG work" on the part of the prop
erty man, the performers are ready for
the opening overture tonight. The cur
tain will rise promptly at $50.
Best Show Ever.
The program as it will be presented
has been outlined several times and
the people of Missoula should be in
formed as to the excellence of the en-
tertainment which is to be offered
them tonight and Saturday. BY means
of these performances the swimming
pool fund should reach a point where
it will be possible to go ahead with
lUc pldtlS lOI lHc COISlIuCllOu vi NIC
POOL. At least that is the hope of
everyone who has volunteered his serv-
ices for the show and of those who
have been spending their time and
energy in looking after the campaign
as far as 1t has progressed.
Tickets Are Cheap.
The price of the tickets is from $3.50
down to IS cents. This places the
seats within the range of all and the
people Of Missoula should not over
look the opportunity to see a first
class show and at the same time en-
joy the knowledge that the money
spent for tickets is for the greater
part finding its way direct into the
swimming pool fund. Practically
everything has been donated for the
performances. House, music. stage
hands, band, all have offered to do
their part. Now it is up to you to
decide whether their efforts and those
of the performers have been in vain.
Jim Caras, on behalf of the Missoula
Nursery company. has donated 1000
carnations to be sold to the people at
tending the performance. Bring some
loose change with you and spend a
dime, or whatever you feel like con-
tributing to further swell the total OF
the fund. The flowers have been Civ
en- by Mr.. Caras in addition to q cash
donation made when the campaign was
first commenced and his attitude and
action Is worthy of emulation.
A check for $50 was received yes
terday from Miss Ruth Greenough
This brings the total of the fund up
to $7,63S.75. Bring this total up high
er by purchasing ticket to the Swim
ming Pool Minstrels today.

In addition to placing prices upon

BRAZIL REvOKES HER

Attack by Canadians Makes

Brazil is no longer a neutral in the

another enemy arrayed against it.
Having previously revoked its policy
of aloofness, so far as it affected the
hostilities between the United States
and Germany, Brazil now has come
definitely into the open and announced
that it can no longer be considered
neutral in the war between the entente
and Germany
Although no announcement has been
made as to whether the South Ameri-
Dcan republic will actually enter into
hostilities by its revocation of neutral
ity, it definitely aligns itself morally on
the side of the United States and the
