Official Instructions Received Here, Subject to
Cancellation Up to Day Set for Strike;
700 Men Are Affected.

of strike has been carried so far that
it must be carried to its ultimate con-
clusion, or brotherhood officers will be
charged with 1.-The biggest mistake in
the history of the organizations Any
comment, though, by railroad officials
is always accompanied by the assertion
that any statement at this time is but
merest conjecture.
O'NeiiI Predicts Failure
]. H. O'Neill, general manager OF
the Great Northern railway, who was
in Great Falls last Saturday in confer
ence with local officials of the COM
pany, stated that in his mind the organ
izations were making big mistake and
expressed an opinion that the threaten
ing strike would serve to break the
backbone of the brotherhoods. He
stated that as far as he could consider
the question it was but protest
against the July cut, rather than a
protection against further cut as
many considered such q move.
The one thing the movement lacks
at the present time, according to Mr..
O'Neill and other officials who have
visited Great Falls within the last six
weeks, is public support. The public,
he stated, is not in favor Of such a
move and without the backing of pub
lie opinion the attempt will not meet
success. He stated that cuts are bound
to come and employees in all lines must
brace themselves against their coming.

chez valley this year, according to a
statement made by Mr.. Smith short
time ago. A number of shipments
have been made to eastern points dur
ing the last two weeks and failure to
return the cars has caused q. shortage
in equipment for the shipment of west
ern fruit, it was stated. The cattle
car situation was considered serious a
short time ago, but officials stated that
there is little possibility of shortage
of stock cars of any kind.
The addition to the force brings the
present force of men in the repair
yards to approximately 300, it was
stated. This is the second addition

ment during the past two months.

Are the people as progressive
AS they like to have us feel,
Do they keep up with the progress
Made by brains and Drawn and zeal.
No they're not and here's the reason
They're old fashioned thru and thru,
And they live and do the same things
That their daddys used to do.
Would the firearms used by Custer
Suit the marksmen of today,
Would the coal oil lamp so ancient
Light our windows of display.

With its row of buttons call

 Theodore Burton, Republican of Ohio, former senator, supported the committee spokesman in his declara- ton for an adequate navy and also urged that these be the nucleus of a large army for the United States. He declared however, that the time has come for an international conference for the sake of stopping this madden ing competition for the construction of armadas" This view was en- dorsed by Representative Byrnes, a Democrat of South Carolina, who. turning to taxation features involved in the military programs. said con- gress this year would appropriate five and half billions, or $50 a head for each citizen of the United States.

National Budget
 Bill Reported By
 House Committee

WASHINGTON, April 25-The na- tional budget bill, with the same pro- vision which caused it's veto last year by President Wilson was reported to the house today by Chairman Good of the special budget committee. The measuer as agreed upon by the sen ate and house in the sixty sixth con gress, was objected to by the presi- dent because of the section provid- ing that the comptroller general and his assistant whose offices would be created by the measure be subject to removal by impeachment or by concurrent resolution. after hearing for neglect, inefficiency or malfeas- ance. Mir. Wilson held that the presi- dent, who would appoint these off cials, alone could remove them.
 The vetoed bill was modified to meet the presidents objection and it was passed by the house but failed of passage in the senate.
 In presenting the measure, Chair man Good reported that one change provided for the appointment by the president of director and assistant director of the bureau of budget, at salaries of SIC, 900 and $7.500 annual ly. The old bill made the secretary of the treasury the director.
 A similar budget bill also was re- ported favorably today by the senate budget committee.
