BACHELOR TAX TEST
TO BE- DECIDED SOON
BY SUPREME COURT
Constitutionality of Singing Out I'm
wed Men Under Flathead Attack.

Helena. Nov. 3.-The constitution
ality of the bacelor tax law which
was passed by the last session OF the
Montana legislature will shortly be
decided by the state supreme court;
The case of Howard K. Pierce and
Leonard E. Riebe against Nellis Cow
DIV. as treasurer of Flathead county,
was submitted to the court Wednes-
dav on briefs and without oral argu-
ment of counsel.
Pierce and Riebe contested the pay
ment of the tax in Flathead county
and lost in suit in the district court,
taking an appeal immedi ately to the
supreme court. Attorneys Jess II.
Stevens and B. L. McIntire represent
Pierce and Riebe, and Dean King and
J. E. Erickson the county treasurer.
The appellants attack the law upon
the ground that it is unconstituho
by reason of, being in contraventlon
Of Article 10, section five, of the state
constitution and that it discrimlnates
between the male inhabitants OF the
state by being double tax upon male
citizens who are not the heads OF
families.
The bacleor tax, under this law, /:
So per year for each male person no
the head of family, and is collected
in addition to the regular poll tax o
So which is paid by all male citizens
The law designates the new tax as
poll tax on male citizens not the hea'
Of families.

w. H. Reed Originator of Harlem
Methods, Enlisted By Montana De-

velOperS.
Harlem, Nov. 8.-W. H. Reed re-
turned Thursday morning from Bill
ings, where he was called by the pres
ident of the Montana Development
association to discuss the features OF
plan which is being developed for
this winter to educate the farmers
and business men all over the state
to the summer-fallow method.
It is the intention to send out men
to every town in the dry land COM
munities in the state, with the pur-
pose of organizing summer-falloW
clubs in every community on the
same order as was done In Harlem
last year.
It is the intention of the associa-
ton first to educate the businessmen
of each community and they in turn
will organize the summer-faliow clubs
Mr.. Reed says it is great movement
and he is Of the opinion that some.
thing Of the kind must be done tt
preserve the agricultural interests o.
the state in the dry land sections:
Mr.. Reed was the originator OF thu
Harlem method. He also practices
what he breaches and because of hi:
faith in summer-fallow and his prac
teal experience, the officers OF tn
Montana Development association
have made arrangements for him t.
spend month or so after the f1rst Q.
the year in organizing these CLUBS.

BIRTH RECORDS
BEING CHECKED
FEDERAL OFFICIAL AT HELENA
TO INVESTIGATE MONTANA'S
METHODS OF REGISTRATION.

Montana's application for admission
to the federal birth registration area,
which now comprises about thirds
of the states, will be subjected to a
statistical test for the next six weeks
or two months. Walter Il. Lackey
of Washington, D. c., representing
the vital. statistics division of the cen
s11s bureau, has arrived in Helena to
do the work. !.
This state, through the board OF
health. must prove to the federal of
,icials that its ewn bureau of vital
statistics is reported 80 per cent OF
more Of it's births. Mr.. Lacey, be-
fore leaving Washington, sent letters
to rural postmasters, rural delivery
postmen, ministers, women's CLUBS ana
many other agencies asking them TO
report to him all births within their
communities for the current year,
The reports thus gathered will be
checked against the states records
It is highly improbable that this indie,
pendent plan of reporting births Will
bring in more than half of the births
Mr.. Lackey said, but it will afford 8
basis for checking the states figures
Each birth as it is reported will DC
compared with the states report OF
names and dates.
Montana's filing of vital statistics
is complete and up to the minute, Mr.
Lackey said, after an investigation q
the work. He believes this states re
cords are in better shape than thos'
in any other state he has checked up
This bureau IS maintained a yearl.

STATUS OF THE
COOPERATIVE MAR
KETINC Bill

The Capper- Volstead Cooperative
Marketing bill is still hanging nre.

certain persons to induce the farm OF
Carnations to discard the bill and TO
Substitute in its place another bill de-
signed to permit any or all groups

or at the hands of the farm organlza-
tions or Of the Congressional hackers
Of the Capper-V olstead bill. In the
first place it is not thought well to
"swap horses in the middle OF the
sream:" and secondly, the proposed
substitute bill has been drawn in
way that would permit meat pack
ers. oil .efiners and others to incor-
norate with shares Of stock at figures
which would prohibit farmers or 9th
ers from subscribing thereto. It has
| been claimed by the advocates OF the
nroposed measure that the door would
! be open to any one to belong 70 d
cooperative organized under the plan.
This assumes, however, that farm
er or any other person would be able
to subscribe to- one or more shares
of stock Tin case he wished to 90 so)

instance, with the shares OF stock
placed at some figure such as mil

probably be the case it the DILL be-
came enacted into law.
