only beaten by one point In the last
minute of play. Vaskey and Fish
were the stars for the locals each get

Belt guards kept the Big Sandy team
away from the Belt basket most Of
the time, they could not stop the long
shots and it was one Of these that
spelled defeat for the locals.

Good breeding, good feeding and good

Great Falls for some time, Mr.. Gray

his subject and made decided hit
Mrs. Alton followed with two de-
lightful songs.
M. T. MesseIt's violin solo was en-
cored twice.
James Alton recited humorous
sketch.
Then Leo C. Graybill followed with
talk to the boys about the fact that
public improvements are taken for
granted and as a matter Of course by
youth and the public in general. The
talk was instructive and was well re-
ceived by the audience.
Rev. Edgington, pastor Of the First
Methodist church of Billings, was the
orator of the day. He told few
stories but when the reporter tried to
remember what his talk was all about
memory failed him.
The audience rose at the end Of the
program and sang my Country Tis
of Thee"
Mrs. Graybill was the accomplished
accompanist for the several musical
numbers.
The affair was decided success,
the Epworth league clearing about
$50 for their work In the church.

FARM CREDITS BILL HANGS FIRE.
ACT PROVIDES FOR Y BANKS

Farm credits legislation, over which
there has been a row in congress for
more than two weeks, is TO be taken
up Tuesday in the house under plans
contemplating vote not later than
Wednesday. Passage by the house
was forecast by leaders who believed
there would be comparatively little
in adjusting the differences
Belt Valley times. [volume] (Armington, Mont.) 1894-1977, 1923-03-01

with the senate.
Major provisions of the two senate
measures, the Lenroot-Anderson and
Capper bills, are incorporated in the
bill as reported from the house bank
ing committee. The formal report on
the legislation was delayed, but Chair
man McFadden issued statement eu-
planning its principal purposes.
'This Legislation ia an endesvor On
the part OF congress-" Mr.. McFaddsn
said, Ito enact . law that will provide
intermediary credits for the agricul-
tural interests Of the United States
and by agricultural interests is meant
all of those people who are engaged
in the production of agricultural pro-
ducts, including the warehousing and
orderly marketing organisations.
Specifically, this bill provides for
the creation of i2 distinct intermsdi-
ate credit banks which are to be man
aged and in the control of the federal
farm loan board. Each is to have
capital Of S5,000,000. or a total Of
$50 900, 900, which Is to be subscribed
by the secretary Of the treasury, and
the stock is to become the property
Of the United States. Provision is al
so made for the creation of corpora
tions with a minimum capitalization
of $3.50 100000 to deal In agricultural
paper having q maturity Of months
or more, and further provision fos
the organization Of the fe-discount
corporations with capital Of 81 .000.-
600 or more to re-discount such paper
for the loaning corporations.
These intermediate credit banks
can issue debentures up to 5000 ,000.-
900 in addition to their capital stock
of $50, ,000, 900. 1t will be noted in this
respect that this intermediary credit
institution provides capital for sgri-
cniturzl interssts almost double the
amount that was called Tor during the
operations of the war finance corpor-
alton.
Provision liz made for the rcim-
Of the government by ap-
plication Of one half Of the net annual
earnings so that ultimately the gov
ernment should be reimbursed for its
capital stock subscription, while stifI
owning the banks with the same
original capital and surplus Of 100
per cent. After this has been accom-
plished, the bill provides that 10 per
cent of the net earnings go annually
to the surplus and the residue to the
federal government.
"All In all, the bill is an honest at
tempt to provide all necessary credits
which the agricultural interests Of the
country claim to be in need Of. At the
same time 1t has been the honest in
tent Of the trainers Of the bill to safe
guard the provisions of the .institu-
tons in their operations that the
least possible harm could come to the
institutions created and the greatest
amount of good to those who are to

In time the plot in front of the swimming pool and the

At present the old street levels present unsghtly

The problem of lighting the bridge and the highway as

under the impression that Diesel engines be installed
and the city plant would be municipality controlled in
every respect
While there has been definite expression on the part
done Immediately to aay suspicion that the city is still
to be subjected to state regulation through any contract
buildings to accommodate these oil engines which have been
run at great saving by the local mill and by cities

Bismarck citizens will not be satisfied with anything less
than completely city controlled water works system 1t has
had enough Of the other kind and state interference in rates
The first vital step toward getting lower water rates is to
have the city Go the whole job itself.

LETTER FROM SAM ATHERTON
TO BEATRICE GRIMSHAW.

DEAR BEE:
| am debating this letter to one
of my men friends who is staying
Sally mas been persuaded to leave
me for little while to get some
needed exercise and air.
Bee, won't you persuade Sally to
let me go to the county hospital :?
1t really is the only sensible thing
to do, but when l suggested it to
Sally she almost tainted.
What is the use of her sacrificing
her youth and good looks and health
to such log as am? Why, if a
man becomes, through his own,
fault, unable to take care of even!
himself, it should be cause for di4l
vorcc.
But here l am and she insists that
it is up to her to tahe care of me
just as it would be up to me to take
care of her under similar circum-
stances. -
Bee, Sally is so devoted to me and
makes me so comfortable at any cx-
pcnsc to herself financially Tor per-
sonally that it seems to me if
knew how to do it without hurting
her more than by living, would
contrive to rid this world of one no.
account man.
Of course you know how this
awful thing happened to me. 1t was
all my own fault. cannot help
thinking. however, of the great
numbers of my friends who have al
ways drunk more illicit booze than
! and yet they have escaped the pun
ishment I am now undergoing.
The worst part of it is that I am
running Sally's life. She always OBJ
jected to me drinking. but l thought
she was narrow minded and Puri-
tanical in her ideas. 1t seemed to me
that it wouldn't be quite manly to

wonderful woman in all the world!
