Patriotic Association, a representative
of the Courier vas told that their Vic

Mrs. Slattery also stated that the
farmers of Valley county had more
than proven their patriotism. In spite
of almost insurmountable difficulties
beginning with a shortage of seed,
then shortage Of help and last but by
no means least an almost total crop
failure.
Those who pledged an acre of
wheat, rye, oats, flax or potatoes are
steadily coming in to make good their
pledge and thus help as much as is
within their power to alleviate the
suffering of our brave boys.
The total amount paid in from this
source up to this week amounts to
$541. 20. Mrs. Slattery went on to say
that from all moneys collected. to-
gether with the money realized from
the sale Of potatoes, the Women's Pa.
triotic Association had given the Red
Cross a check this week for two hun.
dred and twenty-five dollars ($275),
making a round thousand dollars that
the women of this organization have
this year turned over to the Red Cross

St. CLAIR FOR TREASURER

residence in Glasgow has served two
terms as city treasurer and n term

Mr.. st. Clair has never held a coun-

slider the fact that his opponent can
scarcely be called a resident of the

weeks, travelled as a representative of
one Of the big hardware firms in the

their preference to the mar who is

Lists Applying to Entire State
of Montana Were AnnOun-
ced Today.

Great Falls, October 25.-The non-
essential industries. and occupations
were today announced by the state adj
visory board of the United States en-
ployment service, consisting of Scott
Leavitt, federal director Of employ
ment for Montana, Great Falls; Geo.
Nelson, Jas. F. O'Brien and M. M.
Donoghue, Butte, and NJ. w. Selvidge,
Billings. This list, with certain addi-
lions which may be made from time
to time, is intended to apply through
out the state of Montana.
The action of the board announcing
the lists shows that Montana is not
giving such credence to the recent
German peace notes as would slacken
the efforts to supply labor to all in
dustries necessary for the winning
of the war. On the other hand, the
board shows it's determination to use
it's utmost efforts to furnish the re-
quired labor to all necessary war in
dustries.
In announcing the list for the board
Federal Director Leavitt said that
many were apparently unaware of the
exact purpose of the board in declar,
ing a list of nonessential industries
and occupations. ut is not the inten-
ton of the board" said Director Leav.
lit, "to say arbitrarily that any indus
try or occupation is not legitimate
or one which should not be encourag.
ed in normal peace times. But the
board appreciates that there is a great
labor shortage in all industries essen
tial to winning the war, approximate
ly 1900, 900 men, and the declaration
of the nonessential list is but the de-
termining of those industries and oc'
equations from which the patriotic
people of Montana should be, and are
willing to release able-bodied mer
from such work until the declaration
of peace. The board understands, ane
has duly considered, the fact that the
fixing of certain occupations as non
essential will mean that some lines Of
business will be suspended for the
duration of the war, but the boart
feels that Montana citizens will be
willing to make that sacrifice of theil

personal gains, especially in view Of
the fact that they are not desired to
leave those occupations, however nom
essential, until such time as they can
be given places in other work which
will be directly connected with the war
program. This is not q time to keep
business as usual That is German
propaganda. Our business is to win
the wharf.-the quicker the better"
In connection with the occupations
declared nonessential by the various
Community Labor Boards in the state,
the question has been raised as to the
appreciation of the war department
rulings regarding essential and nones-
sential occupations. For instance.
several Of the insurance companies
employing male solicitors have ques-
toned the ruling of community labor
boards with regard to insurance So
licitors. To insure the correct inter-
probation of this ruling, Federal Di-
rector Leavitt %telegraphed a request
for an explanation of this apparent
Contradiction and is in receipt of the
following reply from the director gen.
eral:
"Crowder's ruling is merely that in
surance solicitors are not engaged in
nonproductive occupations under army
work-or-fight regulations. This does
not affect discretion of community
boards in determining insurance So
1icitors as among nonessential occu-
pations."
Employers of ble-bodied men in
the n~onessential list should not now
discharge such men as are in their
employ. They should, however. re.
quire their male employees to register
for industrial wal service at the near
est office Of the United States en-
ployment service, which will notify
such men as they are needed, ant
employers should not add to their en-
ployees any men who r physically
qualified for industrial war service
In the transfer of men to war work
the employment service will give frs
consideration to the men now unem'
ployed, and when taking men from
nonessentiar occupations careful dis
erection will be exercised to permit thu
retention by employers of men who
because of their special training OF
otherwise, are necessary to any bust
ness.
The industries and occupations i,
which it is not necessary to emplo!
men physically qualified to do wa.
work except as indicated in the fore
going paragraph, declared by the stat
advisory board upon the combined rec
ommendation of the community labo
boards is as follows:
Able-bodied men living on their owl
means;
Automobile industry so far as ap
plicable to the selling, maintenance
and repair of pleasure cars and thei
accessories, and the selling of aut
trucks by solicitors;
Architects, bath and barber sho]

bers; book agents and house to hous
canvassers and solicitors; bowling al

SEEMS GOOD BUSINESS IDEA
Proposed Commercial Register for HeI-
land Has Powerful support In
Industrial Circles.

A law to establish q commercial reg
lister in Holland has been introduced In
the states general. according to q dis
patch from p. L. Edwards. CONNER
cial attache Of The Hague. It IL re-
ported to have the support Of mem
bers Of the government, Of high legal
critics and Of important business In
terests generally. This Is said to be
the elimination Of movement started
20 years ago for the. passage Of such Z
law. ss
One Of the most important features
Of the proposed law Is that 1t forbids
the use Of precisely the same name
By more than one concern within
given districts, It also provides that
In each given district there shall be
maintained q public register In which
would be given the name. age and
domicile Of each member Of q firm. as
well a. the extent to which each one
might be held legally liable for its
obligations. 1t also would make Illegal
the use Of a deceptive title. including
such words. for instance. as broth
ers," 'and company" or 'and SONS"
where the owner is only one person.
From the proposed commercial reg
lister . stranger would be able to as
certain the name and residence Of
holders Of not fully paid up shares,
and the full particulars as to the ma
tionality, residence. ETC., Of managers,
directors and other officers Of corpor-
ations and associations. There would
also be particulars as to former bank
ruptcies Of persons or concerns In
question. The present law already pro-
vides for publication Of many Of these
details, but they are only to be found
In such scattered places that in prac-
uce they are not available to the gen.
eral public.
