Washington-After a week of de-

though there has been no indication
that the proposal was the subject of

Montana's 5000, 900 Bushel Crop This
Year, Revelation to fasteners.

GREAT FALLS, Dec. rs, '23-Mon-
tana's 100000 bushel corn crop has
done more to instill confidence in its
agricultural future among eastern
folk than all the wheat ever raised
here, according to H. A. Templeton,
President ofthe Monarch Lumber Co.,
who has returned from a business
trip to the Atlantic coast. Mr.. Tenn
pleton visited Minneapolis, Chicago
and Washington, D. C.,be fore return
ing home.
This years crop in Montana has
been huge surprise to the people in
the states east ofus, he sad "Our
big corn crop has impressed them for
the first time that corn is one of our
major field crops. In spite of the fact
that have been maturing corn sue
cessfully in a large way in Montana
for the past five or six ears our east
ern friends have notrealizedbeforeit
Importance in the state, considering
corn growing here more in the light
of an experiment.
Zone of the most striking impress
sicns | received on my visit Is that
there is a tremendous revision of SEN
ttment in the eastern states concern
ing Montana. People there are COM
ing now to realize that the misfor
tunes which the state has experienc
ed with some of It's more newly set
tied lands have been due more to
lack of a proper understanding of the
state and lack of the application of
proper farming methods than to the
states ability to produce"
Many of the Mississippi Valley
farmers who have been farming a.
gainst huge overhead on high priced
land. are becoming convinced that
diversified farming, with corn as
base. on low priced lands offers much
more profit. according to Mr.. Tenn
pleton. These men are looking for
ward to Montana with considerable
hpe, he says, and the state may ex-
pect many of them to make their
homes here during the coming years.
Bad reports throughout the east
have gwen Montana name which 1t
doesn't deserve EEG the misinforma-
ton about the state has been wide
spread 1t is only fairto Montana to
offset this with truthful publicity,and
the truth about the state will do it,
said Mr. Templeton. "a definite eff
fort to tell the truth about the state
through the east ill be of inestimable
benefit and should be undertaken,
with utmost vigor." Mr.. Templeton
said.

When an honest big busi-
ness man tries to prevent
crooks from looting the Gov
ernment, he is asked to re-
sign as director of all large
corporations in which he is
a stOckh0lder.
In other words, if you
want to hold your job do not
chase down crooks for it may
interfere with honest (?)
business and you'll get fired!
Such is the case of Frank
A. Vanderlip, retired banker,
who recently established
bureau of investigation in
Washington to ascertain the
truth about the corruption in
the capital and give the facts
to the American people.
Mr.. Vanderlip evidently
believes that it is better, even
for his banks, to have the ma
tion's business in the hands
of honest officials instead of
in the hands of the numer-
Gus crooks who have been
handing Government prop
erty over to an oil-igarchy.
Because of the opposition
which he met, Vanderlip de-
cided to quit all business di-
rectOrships.
These hard-bOiled directors
who asked Vanderlip to re-
sign do not believe that the
nation and its resources
