To say that Glacier National Park
is the Canadian Rockies done in
Grand Canon colors is to express q
small part Of complicated fact.
Glacier is so much less and more. 1t
is less in its exhibit Of ice and snow.
Both are dying glacial regions. and

It is these cirques and canons
which constitute Glaciers unique
feature. which make it Incompatible

than two months each summer.
Imagine deep. round valleys emery

its lake or lakes Of turquoise blue.
Every successive shelf OF every
glacier stairway has its iake-one or
more. And every valley has Its

Glacier is pre- eminently the park Of

WIFE ARRESTED
Frederick. Md, Police Doubt Pitten-
ger Killed Self.

Frederick. Md, July Upon
discovery yesterday that William H
Pittenger. 46 years old, farmer OF
Johnscnville, had been killed by a
blow on the head and then shot
through the heart to lend color to
the theory that he mad committed
suicide, the police arrested Pitten-
gers young wife and Arthur Will
son, at whose home she was found.
The body Of Pittenger was ex-
humed and DR.. John H. Messler,
who performed an autopsy, declared
he found that the skull had been
crushed BY blunt instrument and
that, in his opinion, the bullet found
in the heart had been fired after
Pittcnger was dead.
Investigation has shown that on
Monday, the day before Pittenger's
body was found, with rifle lying
nearby. Pittenger and his wife had
violent quarrel at the home of a
neighbor with whom Mrs. Pittenger
had been living for several weeks
following an estrangement from
her husband.
Pittengcr's body was found COW
cred on bed, his hands folded over
his chest. The rifle was beside the
body, the muzzlc pointing toward
his head. The blow on the head had
caused an ugly wound, which led the
authorities at first to believe Pitten-
ger had ben shot in the head. How
ever, the coroner found that bull
let had pierced the mans heart. A
coroner's jury returned verdict
that Pittenger chad been shot and
killed by bullet from a .22-callber
rife fired by some one unknown
Mrs. Pittengcr did not attend the
funeral services on Thursday, dec!ar.
ing she was too i'll. She urged the
authorities, however, to bury the
rife with her husbands body.
Wilson and Mrs. Pittenger told a
number Of conflicting statements,
say the police. They persist they
have no Knowledge of the commits
sion Of rriroe by any one.
Evidence that there had been a
violent struggle in front of the Pit
tenger home has been found. The
Wilson home is only short distance
from the Pittcnger home.
Mrs. Pittenger is about % years
old.

TREATY FOR AUSTRIANS
Completed Terms of Peace Will be
Handed ENJOYS Tomorrow

Paris, July 1.-THE proposed Aus
trian peace treaty will be ready for
presentation to the Austrian dele
CATION on Tuesday. The full text of
the document now is in the hands of
the printer.
The presentation Of the terms of the
Austrians probably will not be accom-
panied by impressive ceremonies such
as were held for the signing of the
German treaty and the first meeting
with the Austrians.
Ten days or two weeks are expect
cd to be given the Austrian delega-
ton to study the new articles on fl
narcial, economic and reparations
questions, and also certain boundary
terms which were not covered in the
first draft given them.
The Council of Five reached the
conclusion at a meeting yesterday at
ternoon that it is impossible to make
peace with Bella Kun's government in
Hungary, according to the Havas
Agency. Maintenance of the blockade
it was said, still is necessary: al
though it's effects. have not been fell
by Hungarian: revolutionary gov
errment,: as it is appropriating food
stuffs for. itself and it's friends.
Recent events at Budapest have in
dicated that the affairs of the Soviet
government there are on the verge OF
crisis. Forty youths from the mill
tarv academy and three officers were
executed by the Soviet Government
last Wednesday after Bella Kun, head
OF the communist Government issued
a proclamation that Blood shall flow
hencefouth, if necessary, to insure the
protection of the poletariat." The ex-
ecutions followed an attempt by anti
Communists to seize telegraph and
telephone stations and lombard Gov
ernment headquarters with three monl
