Announce Rules For
Selling by Weight

Rules and regulations governing
the sale of dry food commodities un-
der the new sale-by-weight law have
Just been completed and promul-
gated by State Superintendent of
Weights and Measures D. J. Frazier,
who also is food and drug commits
sioner. The measures were prepared
by Mr.. Frazier and officially en-
dorsed by DR.. H. A. Morgan of
Knoxville as state sealer of weights
and measures.
Mr.. Frazier, in announcing the
new rules, which become effective
at once, desires to stress the import
ance of the law enacted by the last
session of the legislature and the
necessity of cooperation on the part
of the retailers and the buying pub
lie in enforcing the law and getting
the excellent results to be accom-
plished from what he pronounces
great forward. step in the protecting
the public against imposition and
fraud
The rules and regulations in full
follow,
"Acting under authority of chap
ter 1876, public acts of 1921, the fol
lowing rules and regulations are
hereby made and adopted:
Regulation 1.-The words, shall
hereafter be sold by weight only
as used in section 1 of the act, are
construed to apply to the sale of
dry food commodities.
Regulation 2--The term, dry
food commodities as used in sec
ton l of this act, is construed to
mean articles of food, other than Ii
guilds, which are capable of being
by dry capacity measure
and which have been at any time
prior to the passage of this act sold
by dry capacity measure in this
state.
Regulation 3-This act is not
construed to forbid the sale of arti-
cles of food by numerical count of
clearly defined units which have
heretofore been customarily sold by
this method.
Regulation At is illegal to
a quantity of article of
food sold or offered for sale to be
4 bushel, a peck or other denomina-
Jon of dry measure, or fractional
part thereof, unless the weight of
the commodity conforms to the
standards of weight as fixed by chap
ter 24O, acts of 1887. When dry
food commodities are sold and rep
in terms Of dry measure
and the weight is found to be less
than the standard weight as fixed
by said chapter 240, acts if 1887,
this shall be deemed to be not only
IN violation of chapter 1876, acts if
1921, but also in violation of chap
ter 49, first extra session, acts of
1918, colnhihly known as>thh> Short

High Lights in Governor Lowden's
Illuminating Address

The more important portions of
former Governor Lowden's speech to
the Montana Bankers Association at
Helena last week follow:
During the last century every great
private industry has undergone a COM
plete transformation. AS civilization
has become more complex, the machin-
cry of business has changed continu-
ously to meet its changing needs. In
the machinery of government alone
there has been little progress during
all this time. Yet the business of gov
eminent has grown in complexity and
in the number of subjects with which
it deals quite as rapidly as has private
enterprise. This failure has been due
largely to the fact that until recently
the total expenses of government were
so small, relatively. as to influence
but little the general property of the
country.
snow, however. state and federal
taxes, by virtue of their weight have
become directly related to all economic
questions of the day.
Business and industry generally in
making plans for the future must
reckon first with the question of tax
es, which have reached the point al
ready where private initiative is dis

cases halts.

years. 1t means a checking of indus

VOCATIONAL BOARD
CHANGED IN MARCH

Washington, Aug. Sin round
numbers, the federal board for voca-
tional training and rehabilitation of
disabled eX-service men have enrolled
los, 900 men to date. Harry M. Fid-
Ter, member of the board, testifying
before the Senate subcommittee in
charge of the Sweet bill, states the
enrollments are increasing at the rate
of 1900 per month. According to Mr..
Fidler, the cost of the work for July
will approximate $13 ,000, 900, and the
cost for the current fiscal year Begin
ming July 1 will approximate $685.
100000.
There are over $4,000 of these ex-
service men who are training with
pay, at a maximum monthly cost of
$16O, paid by the government. There
are over 5000 training without pay,
but at a minimum cost to the govern
ment for tuition and supplies of $35 a
month.
The value of this work is abundantly
proved by the records of 1000 disabled
men who have completed their training
and are engaged in employment. These
men earned an average of $1,O51 a
year before entering the army. Today,
in spite of their physical disabilities,
their average annual wage is $1,150.
The work of this board has been the
object of bitter denunciation by sever
al members of Congress, particularly
Senator Walsh, of Massachusetts, a
Democratic leader. 1t should be kept
in mind that all Of this criticism APP
plies to the board under the Wilson
Administration. The board was re-
organized by President Harding in the
latter part of March and since that

Society Injured.

Though this may be questioned,
grant that it is true and you are even
in a worse case. For you then have
destroyed one source of future revenue
to the government. The tax rate then
upon the remaining sources would be
correspondingly increased and to that
degree the cost of production would
again be further augmented. The SUI
preme need of the time is in a better
understanding on the part of the cleo
torate of this great truth. If there is
one subject pertaining to government
upon which the electorate is less in
formed than upon any other, it is the
laws and principles relating to taxa
ton. The reason is obvious. 1t is
only of recent years that the taxes

"Recently the congress of the United
States has enacted a budget law.
Though this law does not confer so
large powers upon the director of
budget as does the Illinois law, it is
a distinct advance. The selection of
the first director, General Charles G.
Dawes was indeed a most fortunate
choice. During the great war he had
successfully co-ordinated the various
bushes activities of the allied armies,
thus materially contributing to the
final victory.
"Of great ability, of dynamic energy,
he already, as director of the budget,
has made marke progress. AS | have
said before, one of the most difficult
things in the world is to abolish a
public office when it is once created.
General Dawes and the administration
are entitled to the heartiest support of
the public in their great undertaking,
and must have that support if they are
fully to succeed.
"The national budget alone, how
ever. no matter how ably administered,
will not solve the problem. There are
other phases of the question which |
propose now to discuss.

create a new district for some pur-
pose covering the same territory al
ready occupied by other municipali-
ties.
And then in many states. besides
all these there are so-called improve
ment districts. The taxes levied by
any n may seem insignificant, but
when all the taxes are totaled, thew
already dangerously approach confis-
cation in many cases. Nor is the line
of demarcation between these several
jurisdictions clearly observed. More
and more the government appropri-
ates for purposes which properly be-
long to the state. The state is urged
all the while to appropriate for objects
for which the local communities them
selves should care. This results in
endless duplication in cost of admin
i~stration and consequent extrava-
gance.

Federal Aid A Bribe.

The farther removed the particular
public treasury be the more the people
appear to believe they are getting
something for nothing when they seek
an appropriation. 1t follows that the
local municipality should be required
to provide it's own for it's
own needs and should not be given aid
by the state. Likewise, the state
should be compelled to provide it's w
funds for purely state needs. Lastly
the federal government should appro-
pirate only for those interests which
are purely of national concern and
clearly within the purposes for which
the federal union was established. No
more expensive phrases have been in

An example of how the board is
functioning since its reorganization is
furnished by its work in Districts =
and 3, comprising the states of New
York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Penn
.sylvania and Delaware. Since June Is,
pending cases in these states have
been reduced from 12,185 to 3,O37, or
a reduction of 9,14S cases. lndiffer-
ence to applications of ex-service men
and interminable delay in handling
them was one of the chief complaints
against the board as it was organized
and managed under the Democratic
administration.
