Mr.. Bakers neck was broken. His
body was found, rigidly erect on the
seat of the truck, his right hand
clutching the steering wheel, his left
hand rested on the edge of the shed,
his left foot was upon the low-gear
control, and the caves of the shelter
pressed tightly against his neck.
1t was apparent that, as ne drove
the machine underneath the shelter,
he had suddenly been caught in a
totally unexpected and tragically
hopeless position. He could not bend
backward to extricate himself, because
of the back of the seat. The brakes
may have failed in the emergency, OF
perhaps the driver was caught so
suddenly that an act to save himself
was impossible. He appeared to have
died instantly and without struggle.
Mr.. Bakers home was in Green
wood and had been here for the past
two months experimenting the con-
struction of the Baptist church. Since
coming here he has made numerous
friends. He was married in 1910 to
Miss Matte Lou Fooche, of Green
wood, who survives him. He also has
a sister in New Jersey.The body was
taken to his home at Greenwood yes
terday morning and was inferred in
the Greenwood cemetery today.

ALLOTMENT FLAG |S USED ID DENOTE
 SOLD|ERSENGAGED

Great Falls, Mont.-A service flag for returned soldiers and sailors generally is being adopted by the employers, of Montana to be dis played by business houses to show the number of the nations former fighters each establishment has pro- vided with positions.
 The plan has been heartily en- dorsed by Scott Leavitt, federal di- rector of employment in Montana. A design being used consists of a flag with blue field on which is shown a large, six pointed star. In the cen ter of the star is large numeral in dicating the number of discharged soldiers or sailors employed. Around the numerals are placed small five pointed stars corresponding in num- Der with the numeral. Below are the words, Returned soldier Cor soldiers) employed here."

MT. Leavitt said: When the boys marched away, parades and brass bands were common Now the boys are coming back. Whether from camp or battlefield, all of them should be paid the expression Of gratitude due those who have offered their lives in the time of their coun- try's emergency. The American people should be quick to greet the returning soldier and sailor with the same spirit of patriotism as was manifested when they entrained. The boys should be met with a real re- ception in the form of being offered a return of positions they vacated to answer their country's call, or the place to which they would have been entitled had they remained at home, and for those who have no prior en- ployment to which they may return every effort should be made to se- cure profitable position.

WHY WILDCATTERS PROSPER IN THIS
 SECTION
investment Laws and Brokerage Laws are in Conflict; Pointed Out
 By Commissioner Jones; Recon1- mends Remedy to the Legislature.

Phoenix, Feb. 6.-''The reason why the various wildcatting companies have been able to fleece the public of this state in such way as to leave the corporation commission very little recourse said Commis- sioner F A. Jones. lis that the in- vestment laws and the brokerage law in the state are in conflict. The com mission cannot say that anything is not possible in the way of mineral discovery and development must therefore, grant permits to companies of apparently reliable personen. The difficulty is in compelling them to spend the money received from stock sales in legitimate development in stead of putting it in their pockets by means of evasion of law. To remedy this defect in control, the commission has recommended to the legislature such action as may be necessary to remedy this condition The recommendation is contained in our supplementary annual report and recommendations and reads as follows:
 Since the passage of the Invest ment Company Act, there was passed, March 8, 1917, by the third legisla- 1D, Senate Bill No. 63, relating to brok- CTS, the effect of which is that upon payment to the secretary of state S200 and the filing of a bond for $5000, any one may secure a brokers license. It is provided that the state bank examiner may prescribe the manner in which records of brokers may be kept and may make examina- brokers operations in the state. The result of this law is that brokers assume that they have authority to sell the securities of any other corl- many in any amount, under any terms or conditions without applying for and securing permit under the Investment Company laws. An in vestment company may get permit to sel securities for say 10c share with commission limited to 20 per cent and may thereafter sell all of it's stock authorized to be sold in the permit to broker who, in turn, may sell it to the public for any price that he can get for it. Many tran sections have been so handled We 1 have had instances where foreign companies have appeared before the commission with an application to
 sell stock and it has gone to the i brokers and we have been confronted I
 within a few days with page adver- tisements of brokers offering to sell stock of companies of very question able value. Consideration should he
 given the matter of operations of brokers with relation to the invest ment company law. We urge a care i full review of our investment company i law with a view of making it possible i for the commission to more thorough
 ly safeguard the interests of the in- vesting public withctlt. however
 hampering legitimate development '

DR. MCNAUGHTON SPEAKS AT THE
 '. M. |. A.
Educator and Missionary of High Type Addresses Clifton People at Y. M. c. A. on the Near East Prob lens.

At the last Monday evening Dr. McNaughton held a large audience of Clifton people in a state of absorb ed attention during his entire Iec- ture. He talked with inclusive. soul stirring intenseness of the horrors of the Turkish rule in the Near East. The Doctor based his plea for aid to the stricken people of the Near East upon actual cultural indebted ness of the Occident to the Armen- ians, Syrians, Greeks, and Jews, who are perishing there today. One mill lion Armenians half million Greeks, Jews and Syrians-one and a half million was the total of help- less peoples who have been massa- cred since the beginning of the world war; the democratic peoples of the Orient, said Dr. McNaughton are the people through whom are western principals of democratic government will eventually be transmitted to the autocracy-ridden hordes of the lands beyond the Mediterranean. Every sentence of the man eXhales sinceri- ty and moral courage and all that heard him will be lukewarm in their 1 desire to assist this worthy cause of their suffering brothers of the Near East
 Boots are selling at $50 per pair:l tea and sugar at $5 a pound, petrol $5 gallon and bread at 50 cents a pound in Symaria, the heart of one of the districts in Asia Minor for which it is aimed to bring relief through the united drive of February 1O-17 said Dr. McNaughton. Dr. McNaughton has been thirty years a Missionary in Persia and his pres ence in this country is the third oc- casion he has left his work. Dr. McNaughton was stationed at Con- stantinople, having charge of a col lege attended by APO students. On account of his British citizenship he was interned as a prisoner of war in the interior of Asia Minor. where he was held for six weeks under the ontinued threat of being sent four days further into the interior from which probably he would have never returned alive.
 Hon. Henry Morgenthau, Ameri- can ambassador, iduced the Turkish government to release Dr. McNaugh- ton. This was done on the condition that he leave the country. Dr. Nc Naughton stated that we would have no difficulty in raising these funds.'' for as soon as the people awoke to the full realization of the terrible suffering which comes now as an aftermath of the oppression or the Turk.
