High School Clee
Club and Orchestra
Entertain Croveland

On Wednesday evening the Glee
club and orchestra of the Blackfoot
high school entertained Groveland
at the gymnasium of the Groveland
school building. The meeting was
called on short notice, but there was
a large audience and a gay time.
Professor Oscar Christensen of
the Blackfoot high school presided,
and when he was introduced by Pro-
lessor Buchanan of the G%roveland
school it was with the intimation
that perhaps they had come to ad-
vertise the Blackfoot high school,
and Professor Christensen admitted
it. He then proceeded to demon
strate it. First he called on Editor
Trego, who spoke for ten minutes
on character and how to keep 1t
strong and sweet. Then followed
some four minute speeches alter
mated by selections by the orchestra,
the glee club and the male quartette.
William Wood, member Of the
Blackfoot high school addressed
them on the subject OF the agricul-
tural classes and what 1t taught In
them. He appealed to the Grove
land young people to go to Black
| foot and join them after finishing
| the course at Groveland. He was
followed by Terrell Anderson, who
told them about the work of the glee
| club and orchestra and the advant-
ages of being members. Elmer
France talked on athletics as 1t is
taught, and of their track work;
Frank Halverson told of the work
/ of the commercial department and
the contests in typewriting that will
be held at Pocatello Friday, at the
state contest, Of the trophy and
medals to be won at that event, and
Of the desirability Of being in such
work. Leland Chapman told about
the high school paper and its aims
and what is published in it; Paul
Pearson explained about the life and
work Of the Broncho, the school an
nual in book form and said that
altho they combat the school paper
they are the best of friends.
At the close of the entertainment
it was announced that the orchestra
would furnish music for dancing for
a couple of hours and dance they
did.
This is the second of a series Of
such entertainments contemplated
by the high school bunch. One was
given at Wapello some time ago and
an engagement was made for it at
Thomas on Thursday evening of this
week, but so many members had
other assignments they had to post
pone it.

than they had pupils in the schools,
and went on at some length con-
demning her work on the grounds
of the impostor.
Some of the leading men and
women of the town went to the
editor and informed him that he had
misunderstood her report. That it
was a report of defects in the pupils;
that a child might have a bad tooth
that was making the breath bad and
affecting its health and that counted
as n defect; the same child might
have a bad a that was affecting its
hearing and its health and comfort,
and that counted one defect. The
same child might have adenoids that
prevented its breathing as it should,
and that counted as a defect, so
that for one child there would be
three defects in the report. 1t did
not convict Miss Countryman of be-
ing an impostor, nor convict her en-
ploying association of being i'm
posters, but 1t showed how much
and exactly what needed to be done
for their children, and the editorial
roast in his paper showed that the
editor also had a defect that re-
quired fixing. They brought with
them an article already written the
way they wanted it published and
said that the terms on which they
would bury the Ratchet were that he
should publish the article without
change, which he did, with all its
attendant humiliation for himself.
Miss Countryman went out to
Arco Monday to take up the work in
the schools Of that progressive town,
the town that always goes over the
top promptly in good works.

chance for the old settlers to draw
flood waters at all.
In defense of the evaporation of
water from the lake the department
claimed that by reason of the stor-
age there was soakage of water into
the shores Of the lake which came
back into the lake as the water level
was lowered, and that this ought to
Offset the evaporation. In reply to
the charge that the storage interests
are taking away the food waters
from the old settlers, it was con-
tended that waters can be appro-
priated and used from day to day by
the appropriations, but that in order
to acquire a permanent right to use
them, 1t must be made q matter of
record SO that notice shall in that
way be served to others that this
particular water is already in use
and may not be depended upon for
use by others, and that the old set
tiers never having fled on the water
and made their claims a matter of
record 1t was open to entry and ap-
preparation according to the process
laid down by law, and that the stor-
age interests have taken such OPP
p%ortunity and can hereafter use the
flood water by storing it in flood
time and then releasing it later in
summer. There is nothing on the
records to show that II it we're al
lowed to run down the channel that
it might not run clear to the sea and
be lost.
These were merely the arguments
on the points in dispute and show
the course Of the development of the
situation. There we're many other
matters under consideration, am
further report Of them is expected.

HARDING SAYS ANY CUT MUST
 BE MADE UPON
 FEDERAL AID
President Delivers Annual Message to Congress in
 Transmitting Budget
POSTAL DEFICIT IS SEEN
Further Participation in Broadening Field of Fed
 eral Aid Questioned

WASHINGTON. Dec. 4.-President Harding, in transmitting the annual federal budget for the next fiscal year, frankly told congress today that whether there was to be any ma terial reduction in government expen- ditures and in taxes in future years would depend largely on whether there was to be a curtailment or ex- pansion of federal aid in lines of re- search, improvement and develop ment
 Placing the estimated government outlay in 1924 at $3.1SO.S43. 234, de- cerase of about S500,000. .000 as com pared with estimates for this fiscal year, MT. Harding called attention that two-thirds of this total was on account of practically fixed charges, such as the public debt. national de- fense, pensions. world war allowances and federal aid. There was left. he said. only about one billion dollars in charges subject to administrative control and against which, he added. the retrenohment policy of the govern ment had been directed
 While expressing the opinion that some further reduction undoubtedly would result from reorganization of government establishments on a more scientific basis. the president said this alone would not effect such a material cut in operating costs as would justify the expression Of hope for a considerable lessening of ex- penditures in the years to come.
 Taking up the question of federal aid. the executive declared that this was a rapidly broadening field of eX- penditure and that there was a ques- tion as to how far the government should participate in it. He added that it did not pertain to the normal functions or operations of the busi- ness of the government
 These eXtraneous activities" he continued, "have flowed from laws enacted pursuant to popular demand. and l take this occasion to refer to them for the purpose of showing that the taxation which necessarily results in providing funds to meet them is a necessary incident to the fulfillment of the popular demand

I have been much concerned in apparent increasing state. county and municipal indebtedness, and am fearful lest this coalition may be in part attributable co the expenditures made by the government pursuant to it's federal aid laws, as many of these state laws require state contributions as prerequisite to the extension of the federal aid

Isnet Maintains Silence on
 Straits; Russia's Proposal
 in Line With Turkeys Idea

straits approaches nearer to the Tur- kish idea than any other suggestion, and has created the general impress sion that Russia is dictating the Fur kish policy.
 M. Tchitcherin's plan was placed directly and cOncisely before the dele gates at the morning session. he in sisting that Turkey should have con- trol of the straits, that foreign war ships should be prohibited entry and that Turkey should be permitted to erect Qualifications. He declared that troops and ships would not influence the settlement of the problems of the straits and that their retention there was not possible.
 Lord Curzon retorted significantly that foreign troops and ships were there now and were a very definite factor in the Near Eastern situation, though he hoped they would not be a permanent factor in the straits.

 Days Session
CONFIRM NOMINATIONS

WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.-Congress put of the old and on the new" to- day with the ending of the special session which had been called pri- marily to consider the shipping bill. and the converting of the regular sta tutory December session. The change in congressional fashions was made within 10 minutes, the extra session begun two weeks ago, adjourning at 11:50 o'clock, and the new being called to order at high noon.
 The routine sessions winding up the special session and opening the new developed little business and drew small crowds. Formal surrend- CT of the senate Republicans to the Democratic filibuster against the Dyer anti-lynching bill ended the tie up and allowed confirmation of about 1700 delayed nominations before the final gavel of the special session, but the nomination of Pierce Butler, St Paul attorney, to be associate justice of the supreme coutr. failed and went over until the new session through opposition of Senators La Toilette, Republican, Wisconsin, Norris, Re publican, Nebraska, and others.
 Receipt of the annual budget was the principal business of today's ses- sion. The usual committees called on President Harding and notified him of the assembling of the new ses- sion, but were not advised definitely when the president would present his opening message. It was believed the president would address congress in joint session Wednesday with a mes sage stresSing the administration s desire for enactment of the shipping bill, farm credits legislations and the annual supply bills in the hope of cleaning up all business by March 3. and avoiding an extra session of the new congress next spring
 The shipping bill, passed last week by the house is scheduled to be brought before the senate late this week. It will be taken up Wednesday by the commerce committee with a view to prompt reply to the senate.

Irish Constitution Bill is Passed Through Both Houses;
 Healy Appointment Approved

LONDON, Dec l. -- (By The AssO- ciated Press) = The centuries old struggle between England and Ireland ended tonight when the legislation giving the sanction of law to the new settlement with Ireland passed it's final stages in the house of lords, which for generations has bitterly op- posed any accommodation with Ire land.
 The constitution bill has gone through both houses of parliament without any amendment and even without division being challenged.
 Lord Curzon alone, whose influence was mainly responsible for failure to settle the Irish question in 1914. and who has. throughout his political career been the bitterest opponent of home rule. persisted to the very end in his role as last ditcher, even when such traditional anti-home rulers as the Marquis of Lansdowne and the Duke of Devonshire had gracefully yielded to the government view and resolved to give Ireland chance to

 The subject was not on the agenda as outlined in the American invita- ton. It was brought up sharply, however, in the reply of Dr. Alberto Ucles, chief of the Honduran dele gation. in replying to Secretary Hughes address of welcome. Under clause four of the invitation, Dr. Ucles said. any subject could be presented and he urged that the matter of a federation of Central American states should receive first consideration" by the conference.
 In opposition to this view, Senor loses Andras Coranado, Costa Rican foreign minister, pointed out that the Central American governments, in accepting the invitation to Washing ton, had been fully cognizant of the fact that the historic hour of their political uion has not yet struck"

LAUSANNE, Dec. 4.-(By the Associated Press)-Ismet Pasha is still being carried along behind Tchitcherin's chariot tonight so far as the members of the Near Eastern conference have been able to learn. Whether Ismet is willingly allowing Russia to speak for Mustapha ke- malls government or dare not assert variance with soviet Russia's view on control of the BosphOrus and the Oar danelles is not clear. Ismet is silent; perhaps he is awaiting instructions from AngOra.
 Ismet Pasha says he wants to hear the views of England. France, and Italy on control of the straits before he sets forth the definite Turkish plan. but his admission that Russia's project for absolute control of the straits and adjacent territory by Fur key alone and the exclusion of all warships except Turkish from the
