While Still regard the time pre-
mature to open the campaign, and,
therefore, had determined to remain
silent until much later date, the fact
that your committee will meet today
to select delegates to the State Con-
vention, to be held at Baton Rouge,
June Bird, which will select delegates
to the Democratic National Conven-
ton, has caused me to decide to
write you concerning a question that
is now agitating the public mind and
will certainly be one for consideration
by the Baton Rouge convention.
There are many important quest
ions that will be issues in the Senat-
orial contest. do not consider it nec-
essary to discuss at this time the Of
her issues, because of my disinclina-
ton to precipitate the opening of the
campaign and because the other is
sues, to my mind, require no state
ment at this time. But the issue that
| want to take up with you at this
time seems to require immediate con-
sideration and action at your hands,
because, unless action is taken now.
those who agree with my views may
ind subsequent discussion too late.
Irefer to the Eighteenth amend

IS the Volstead act. believe that

DISCHARGE PAPERS.

A warning to al ex service men against
the loss of their discharge papers and
urging that they be properly recorded
has been issued in telegram to Claude
j. Harris, state secretary of the Ameri
can Legion, from Frank D'Olier, COM
mander of the order. The telegram is
as follows:
Department adjutants are urged to
instruct their department historians on
the advisability of all ex-service men
officially recording their discharge pa
pers With the recorder of their county.
The desirability and importance of every
member of the American Legion con-
forming with this suggestion, is evil
denced by the many instances in which
claims are being made where the dis
charge papers are either lost or des-
troyed.
"In the state of Pennsylvania today
the eX-service man is granted certain
state benefits. As time goes on there
will undoubtedly be further concessions
made by the several states for the bene-
war and their dependents, in which
event, if it is impossible for any reason
to produce the original discharge, a
means of sufficient evidence would be
furnished for the claim through the rec
ord in the county recorders Office"

PRIHGLE GOOD
ROADS ASSOCIATION

Roads are of such importance that
they may be compared to people. They
are both good and bad They may be
smooth, even wide and full; hilly, mar.
row winding, shadowy or bright, and
they show the effects Of environment
and care even as we.
Roads are vital to our life, for oyer
them pass the food which sustains life.
Without roads cities could not survive
and country folk would be without the
many necessities and comforts and even
luxures which they are now able to
possess. They are the connecting link
between the business man, the manu-
facturer, the farmer, the dairyman and
producer of food. Good roads alone
make it possible for both the country
and city to live up 10 the present stand
ard, and will alike be responsible for
any rise in that standard. Who then
can place proper value on good roads,
or who is wise enough to give the true
Can any one picture a country or a
land without roads? good man sets
an example, likewise a good road is an
example and as we have too few good
men, so also do we have too few good
roads.
We have just emerged from great
war and both our allies and enemies had
good roads and hesitate to think how
much longer we would have had to con
tinue the fight, and how many more of
our boys would now be "Over There"
had the roads of France and Belgium
not been good
We are doing well in building roads
at present, and our Legislators are to be
commended for supporting this move
ment, but when we have a highway
past every farm, through every village
and city, then will it be time TO cease
talking Good Roads" Good roads are
fundamentally essential to the hib hest
advancement of our civilization.
This is an individual proben--your
problem. You can do something to
promote good roads in your community.
If you have not already done 50, better
shoot us over dollar membership fee.
We will need it soon.
Yours very truly,

Secretary.

SAYS PEAK REACHED
In High Prices. Nation Wide Reports
Indicate That Business Condi-
tions are Improving

Washington, March 3l.--Nation-wide
reports from Federal reserve banks
made public today disclose the opinion
of officials that the post war era of Eek
travagance and reckless buying" by the
public is nearing the end. The reserve
boards statement summerized its advice
as indicating generally a more hopeful
view of the country's business condi-
tion than for several months. While
the price changes shown by this board
are not universal, nevertheless they are
reflected as positive and important as
basis for reckoning what the immediate
future holds.
The belief is that high prices for the
consumers will not be completely obtain
eduntil the present stocks are absorbed ia
practically all lines 1t Il declared that
manufacturers everywhere are shown to
hold the view that the peak of high
prices has been reached and that grad
ual recession is expected particularly
in the clothing trade, where marked
tendency is efficient to make the old
supplies last longer and to refuse to pay
exhorbtant prices. This is taken to
mean that an awakening has come and
that people have arrived at the con-
clusion that they are themselves re-
sponsible for the continued high prices.
No encouragement was given for a
price reduction in shoes. The house
condition throughout the country is de-
scribed as acute, partly due to the labor
situation, but mainly because people are
leaving farms for what appears better
in the cities. Capital is
reported slow to engage in new building
operations because of taxation.
Production conditions the country
over give every reason for encourage
ment, with reference to actual industrial
and agricultural potentialities. The
crop outlook so far as can be judged at
this season is hopeful. There is a sub
stantial degree of harmony between
capital and labor as indicated by small
ment."

THE TIMBER INDUSTRY.

The marked advance in lumber prices
during the past year has brought about
an increased demand for timber. The
Black Hills region contains practically
the only forest area between the Rocky
Mountains and the Lake states With
the exception of the Homestake Mining
company holdings and the State Forest,
about all of the timber is in government
ownership and within the Black Hills
and Harney National Forests. 1t is from
these forests that we must look for the
future timber supply of South Dakota
and western Nebraska.
The net acreage of the government
land in both forests is approximately
one million acres which according to
the latest data that has been secured on
growth, produces about 40 board feet
per acre annually, or a total of AZ 600, ,000
feet b. NJ. The methods of cutting for
western yellow pine adopted by the
Forest Service provide for removing
only the mature trees and the thinning
of crowded stands. Sufficient timber is
left to provide for another cutting in
from 30 to 40 years The amount OF
timber which may be cut in any one
year is fixed by the Secretary of Agri.
culture SO there is no danger of the For.
ests being denuded and the lumber in

RED CROSS REPORT
A Retrospect of What Has Been Done
by the Custer Chapter and It's
Branches.

In presenting these figures we begin
with foreword by Mabel A. Hall, Dir.
ector of Chapter Production Northern
Division:
Too much cannot be said in praising
the wonderful work accomplished by the
women Of the Northern Division during
the recent war. Cases Of real heroism,
too numerous to mention, are well
known to us In the rural districts
women drove miles to town several
times each week to attend work meet
ings; invalids and cripples put forth a
superlatiye effort to do their bit and
have part in the great worlds work
mothers with household duties and chill.
dren to care for managed to accomplish
their usual heavy tasks and also give
their time generously to Red Cross
work.
'All of these sacrifices and more are
interwoyen with the dry statistics fol-
lowing, and one can see them in fancy
as background to these pages This
record Of their labors will always stand
as monument to the whole-hearted-
ness ingenuity and industry of our
women"
BY November llth, 1918, the Red
Cross had a membership including Jun.
iors, Of %, GAS, 1903, more than one-fourth
the population of the U. S. There were
fourteen divisions, thirteen in the U. s..
and one including all u s. possessions
outside the U. S. OF the thirteen this
report must mention our own Northern
Division especially, not only because it
Is ours but as a matter of qualification
for this Division, comprised of the states
of Minnesota, North and South Dakota
and Montana led the thirteen divisions
in practically every department of pro-
dnction work accomplished per capita
population. Our State had II chapters
and ranked the third state in the Dvi-
sion, although there was little difference
in the average of the four Montana
stood high with the general average for
the year of 1918 Of SI62 per capita while
Minnesota was fourth with an average
of $l.32 per capita. OF our State Faux
county led with per capita production
of S2.9S. Custer Chapter had per
capita production of 1926 for the year
1918.
Our chapter work began properly in
May, 1918, and concluded April, 1919.
The work wac carried on undor fouy
heads-hospital supplies, knitted gar
ments, surgical dressings and refugee
garments. From May lst to December
3lst, 1918, Custer Chapter produced in
value as follows: Hospital supplies
81 ,206S5, knitted garments 81 ,445.25,
surgical dressings $4,000, refugee gar
ments $62340, or a total for the eight
months of So, sci 90. From January lst
to April lst, 1919, the work showed a
decrease, making however a total in the
| four departments for the three months
of 81, ,26050. The total output for the
Chapter in these four departments for
the duration of its actual existence in
active production was $4, S5S.OO This is
a record Of work carried on with devo-
ton and conservation seldom exceled
in any record of human history.
