Echo Of Hay Famine Heard in Fill
ing of Suit Against RaynesfoTdites

An echo of the hay famine of the
winter of 1919-l920 is heard in the
filing of suit in the district court
by John H. Clark of Great Falls, as
the assignee of George B. Lockwood,
against number of farmers in the
Raynesford section seeking Judgment
in the amount of S424.96, together
with interest at the rate of 8 per cent
from February 2S, 1921. George Hay,

The suit is said to be the outgrowth
Of the pool formed during the hay
famine when Mr.. McInnis was sent to
South Dakota to buy, bail and ship
hay to Raynesford. l.. f. Younggren,
at that time cashier Of the Stockmen's
bank at Raynesford, was keeping the
accounts of the pool, which were al
lowed to become badly tangled, and
Lockwood, then certified public ac-
countant of Great Falls, was engaged
to audit the books of the pool, "for and
on behalf of the defendants, at their
special instance and request" His
services were valued at s424.96, and
the claim was later assigned TO the
plaintiff in this action. Leo C. Gray

tion and it is understood that some of
the other defendants have retained
counsel.
From what can be learned of the
matter, it seems that Clark, who is
represented by G. G. Harris, a Great
Falls attorney, wrote each of the de-
PENDANTS offering to settle with each
defendant upon the payment of SIS.
This offer was accepted by some of
the defendants, it is said, the suit be-
ing brought against the balance. It is
also claimed that some of the de
PENDANTS named had no interest in the
work of Younggren or the straighten-
ing out of his accounts.

THE GENOA CONFERENCE.

The United States government has not yet an
nounced a decision as to attendance at the Genoa
economic conference. The Minneapolis Journal
iaptly suggests that If we are to be represented at
Genoa at all it should be as active participants and
not merely as advisers. There may be some ques-
ton as to the wisdom of participating at all. The in
l%vitatlon to the Moscow government to attend ap-
pears as a defect in the plans, from the American
standpoint. Lloyd George, fertile in expedients as
he IS, may find. q way to reconcile with the ordinary
standards of civilization the practical acceptance on.
Iequal"terms of a governmental body whose authori-
Ity rests frankly on force and terrorism, and which
recognizes the validity of no contract, spoken or
written. But, 50 far as the United States is con-
|cerned, there is little appetite here for the %cultiva-
ton oftrelations with the soviet dictators, and there
can be little satisfaction in dealing with them.
Much will depend, too, on the arrangements
made for the program at Genoa. Premier Poincare
of FRANCE has some very decided opinions as to the
subjects which should and which should not be dis
|cussed, and it remains to be seen whether or not the
subjects to be covered will include those which the
american authorities will consider vital. 5ssss
There seems to be every reason, however, for
American participation to the fullest extent provid-
led there are held out probabilities Of constructive
work adequate to the needs of the situation. The re-
building Of prosperity in America involves very
largely the rehabilitation Of Europe. We are in
many European commodities. We need for our
Ineighbors a group Of European countries whose
substance is not being wasted in wars and prepara-
ltionSs for war, whose nervous attention is not con-
fstantly fixed on dangers from without, real or inn
laginary,s whose people have abandoned the shams
LOT Socialism and Bolsheyism for the constructive
work Of peace andsorder and the pressing Of produc-
Ition to the highest possible point in order that the
iraHyages ct war may be repaired.

her reparations obligations.
Obviously, if Germany must stand heavy taxa
ton in any case, it is more to her interest to re-
distribute the money among her own people in the
form of subsidies than to pay it out to foreign ma

no. reason why the German people should be able
to live more cheaply and comfortably than them
selves on money which is due them as part&com-
pensation for the injuries which they have suffered

4 various manners IN order to provide for war needs

part of the cost Of bread in order that all classes
might be insured a supply of bread at a moderate
