TO FORMER SERVICE MEN

Observation-Disclosures from Presi.

the American Legion were delivered
here last Wednesday by Alvin M.
Owsley, national commander of that
organization. Speaking first into a
radio telephone for broadcasting over
the country and later before a local
legion post, Mr.. Owsley described his
visits during the day to the White
House and the home of Mr.. Wilson.
The national commander said Pres

had asked him to tell the former SER

A standard rig is being used and ex-
perienced drillers are in charge.
The Bowdoin Oil & Gas, the pioneer
company in the field, which first
brought Brown to look into the oil
possibilities of the region, was or
gained largely through the activity
Of DR.. A. N. Smith of Glasgow, a well
known physician, who is now president
of the company. Harry Cosner Of
Malta is secretary, and the principal
stockholders are stockmen and bust
ness men.
The Homestake Exploration COM
pany, while a subsidiary of the Home
stake Oil company, is also backed
largely by Detroit automobile men, in
Guiding the owners of some of the
larger automobile factories of that
city, and by the Texas-Pacific COM
pany, one of the large southern indie
pendents. 1t is now drilling with it's
standard rig and will continue opera
lions through the winter to compile
ton.
The principal difficulty that has
faced companies entering the Bowdoin
field has been in tangles resulting
from the withdrawal Of the area by
the government. A large part Of the
area centering about the Nelson res
%ervoir, on what is now taken as the
high of the structure, is included in
the Milk River project. Against this
there are in many cases assessments
for reclamation not yet paid. Patents
are in some cases held in allegiance
pending the payment of these assess
ments. Then, too, the withdrawal of
the government was made following
the first report of Collier. Suisse
quent to that time, it is said, permits
were granted on patented lands; oil
rights were denied on some lands that
had been filed prior to withdrawal;
and in other ways difficulties arose.
In some cases the operators have pro-
tected themselves by obtaining not only
landowners leases by government
permits on the same grounds.
Promise of what may result from
operations on Bowdoin are e in
the fact that today it ranks second
only to the Kevin-Sunburst in the in
terest of oil men Leasing operations
have been so active as to draw many
of the larger operators in the state to
take holdings.
Malta is the largest town in the
immediate vicinity of the structure,
being about 25 miles from the center
of present operations. Freighting
supplies and equipment is largely from
Saco, a distance of between 10 and Is
miles, while Hinsdale is about 25
miles from the present wells and To-
Gated on the east side of the structure
is also a town of the district.

vice men that the executive was be-
hind the program for hospitals for
the disabled veterans and was deter
mined that it should be pushed to an
early conclusion. The president also
declared, he said, for a practical ad-
ministration of the law giving world
war veterans preference in employ
ment under the civil service.
AS he was preparing to leave the
executive offices, Mr.. Owsley said he
was informed that Mrs. Harding
would be glad to receive him.
"She got up out of a bed of sick
ness, dressed herself and was wheeled
out in an armchair" the national COM
mander said. "She told me: 4 want
you to say to the ex-service men that
their friend has been sick, but is much
better now and soon will be on the
job again."
Mr.. Owsley said that on his visit
to the Wilson home he had told the
war time president he had come to
pay his respects to his as the former
commander in chief of the veterans and
to ask for a message to them. He de-
clared that Mr.. Wilson's eyes flashed,
that he sat more erect and his jaw
set.
"Say to them," the former chief ex-
ecutive was quoted, "that I am their
comrade; say to them that they were
the real soldiers who fought for the
liberty of the world; say to them that
they were the crusaders for liberty"

HIS WAR DISABILITY
is O

Two days before the armistice be-
came effective, Guy 3. Porter, private
149 Field Artillery, was struck by a
flying fragment Of a bursting high ex-
plosive shell, which practically des-
troyed the sight of his left eye. He
was later discharged from the army,
after having reached the maximum
improvement under medical care. Be-
ing unable to resume his pre-war oc-
cupation as type-setter, the Veterans
bureau assisted Porter to file a clam
for vocational training, and in Septem-
Der, 1919, he entered the University
of Minnesota, taking a regular college
course in agriculture.
Porter expressed a desire to take
training sufficient to allow his to
qualify as a teacher of agriculture.
During his junior and senior years Por-
ter specialized in horticulture, and in
June, 1922, he graduated with honors,
receiving his B. S. degree after having
been in training about 33 months.
In September of this year he was
placed on the faculty of a high stand
ing agricultural college in a nearby
state, as an instructor in horticulture,
at a salary of $4,000 a year.
Due to training received under SUI
pervision of the U. S. Veterans bu-
eat Mr.. Porter has not only been per-
mitted to fit himself in his chosen
profession but is now receiving $4,000
a year more than he did when he went
into the service, and the type of work
he is now doing is far superior to that
of his pre-War DAYS.

Most Lacked Money.
On the nearly forty-eight.hour
trip to Leavenworth the convicts,
throwing aside every trace Of fear
and resentment, broke into song,
as well as recitations. Some had
been provided with funds from
relatives, and they bought choco-
lates, candy. fruit. tobacco, and
read ne matter for themselves and

Given Reception.
Upon their arrival at the prison,
Washington convicts were given
royal reception" by groups of
other long-timers who were scat.
tered about the yard. Some Of
the new arrivals were recognized
as old offenders who had served
terms in the prison before.
Back again" and Glad to see
you with US again" were some OF
the greetings handed and banded
about as the Washington men, in
procession, walked to the
lighthouses to be cleaned and
adorned in prison garb. After the
bath. their names, records, fin.
gerprints. Bertillon measurements
and photographs were taken.
Then they were sent to quaran-
tine for several days before
being allowed to mingle with the
other prisoners.
Each cell at the prison Is ar.
ranged for two prisoners. They
are spacious. and have running
water and flushing toilets
about the size. but with better
conveniences, OF the average
rooming-house ballroom.
Each prisoner has his daily
task. 1t may be working in the
kitchen, or in the clothing or
shoe shop. But there Is no con-
tract labor at the penal institu-
ton. The clothes and shoes
made are for the inmates alone.
In summer convicts work on the
