PLEDGE COOPERATION IN
FORD PURCHASE PLAN

Our decision to cooperate in the
Ford Weekly Purchase Plan is simply
in line with our general policy to ex-
tend every possible service to the cit=
izens IF this community" Thomas d.
Tracy, president of the Baraga Coun-
ty National Bank, said, relative to the
announcement appearing in this issue
of the Sentinel.
1T is an excellent means of pro-
noting thrift, the thing most essen
tion to financial success and the at
tainment Of ambitions.
"For several years now, banks gen.
enelly have been conducting CAM
paigns urging people to open Christ
mas savings accounts and vacation
savings accounts and thousands of
persons have done so. In many cases
they started with small amounts the
first year, but the second year their
goal was higher until these savings
have mounted into surprising figures.
"The automobile has become a ne
Icessity to modern times. 1t is essen
tial to successful business and it is
unequalled as a means of providing
pleasure for the family.
"The effect of the plan is most
wholesome. 1t is certain to promote
a new feeling toward the automobile
and will tend to create greater re-
gard for automobile ownership.
$50 why not save to own an auto
mobile, just as you do for vacatin
or for Christmas ? They are all pleas
ure. giving adventures that cost little
or no effort"

. THE CELLO RECITAL

No one who attended the cello re-
cital last Monday evening can say
that h eregrets having gone. The
program was a great success and the
unusually large attendance was a
credit to the community. Mr.. Pin
der gave the opepning remarks and
introduced Professor Weir, who, in
very entertaining manner gave a
brief history of the cello and it's or
igin, including few humorous re-
marks on his first years of practice
on the instrument. Mrs. F. R. Bush
played the piano accompaniments.
Professor Wier's musical ability
surpassed all expectations. The first
selection played was a modern one,
The program also included "Ber-
ceuse," one Of the songs in the mu-
sical contest, Beethoven's Minuet in
G, Schubert's Ave Maria, and To the
Evening Star. by Wagner. Each Sc
lection was received with great ap-
plause. When no response was re-
ceived for the fourth encore all reluc-
tantly left their seats as if loath to
go. 1t can be truthfully said this was
the greatest event in L'Anse this
year, at least in the musical line.

MASH DUMPED IN RAID
KILLED FISH BY THOUSANDS

Here's how" said the trout to the
whitefish, as their watery home In
Tucker creek, near Butte, was invaded
by 5000 gallons of m%oonshine mash,
dumped into the stream by a federal
agent and members of the Butte police
force. Then the poor fish quaffed
deeply, INDUCED in some exhilirated
wriggling, turned up their fins and
went to the happy fishing grounds, or
wherever all good fishes go. And to
cap the climax, the officers are con
sidering filing a charge of violating the
game laws against Joseph Poderski,
alleged wner of the mash under ar
rest for manufacturing intoxicating
liquors, who would have parted with
his left foot rather than have done
the very thing of which he may be ar
cused.

MERGE ROADS FOR
BENEFIT OF PUBLIC
HOOVER REPORTS COMMERCE
DEPARTMENT HAS DATA
SHOWING NEED
REQUIRED BY LAW OF 1929
Nineteen or Twenty Competitive Rail-
rosd Corporations Sufficient tor
Nations Transportation Needs

MISUNDERSTANDING of rail-
roads as proposed by present statutes
but with measures to expedite the
process which do not exist at present,
is urged in the forthcoming annual re-
port of Secretary Hoover. Extracts
from the documents declare that COM
mercial and industrial developments of
the past two years, point to imml-
nent ~desirability of early progress in
the matter.
The issue was raised by the require
ment of the transportation act of 1920
hat the interstate commits
sion proceed to lay out a plan for
merging existing railroad systems into
10 or 20 great corporations, maintain
ing, so far as possible, the competitive
characteristics of the present transport
tation system.
1.-The past years experience of the
commerce department in relation to
transportation" Mr.. Hoover's report
says, s'has shown, even more emphatic
ally thar ever before, the necessity
for the consolidation of the railroads
into larger systems, under private
ownership, the principles of which
were established in the transportation
act of 1920.
1.-The difficulties of r~eorganizing the
rate structure so as to secure simpli-
ficat.on and to give relief in primary
products-agricultural, coal, etc.-by a
fairer burden upon finished and less
than-carload lots, are almost insuper-
able until the different systems are
possessed of more diversified traffic
and until the weaker roads have beer
absorbed. The necessity to establish
railway credit and finance on a broad
err foundation han sole reliance upon
the issue of mortgage securities, the
necessity of provision for common
utilization of terminal and other ra-
c~ilities. the impossibility of providing
adequate rolling stock, and particularly
specialized cars, so long as the burden
falls solely upon the strong roads; the
difficulties of more definite control OF
car service to meet seasonal demands
and routing; the insuperable problems
of equalization in car Interchange;
the slow progress in Standardization
and maintenance Of equipment-all
point to the imminent d~esirability OF
early progress with consultations, II
we are to have a transportation sys-
TEN adequate to the necessities of the
country and containing in itself the
strength for annual increase.

after being withdrawn from Puente de

General Romolo Figure has ceased his
revolt against the state government.

that Capt. Hiram Moledo, commanding

would not confirm the reports

Three Trout Cost $3.50

Vain Harkonen of Harrison is posi-
tive that fish caught in a stream that
has been closed by the fish and game
commission are expensive. Five hun
bred feet of O'Dell creek, where 1t
empties into the Madison river has
been closed to fishermen during the
spawning season of lockleven trout,
and is so posted by four plain notices.
Hargonen read one of these notices.
and then seeing a path leading up
stream. went up a couple of hundred
feet and started fishing. Just as he
landed his third big l~ockleven, up came
the deputy game warden. who issued
an invitation to call with him on Judge
Angle Of Ennis. The judge convinced
him that he owed the state of Mon
tana $3.50 for the taking of forbidden
fish.
