organization work said recently.
Congressman George M. Young of
North Dakota recently wrote to a
friend in Montana, saying that in
Congress Mr.. Leavitt has demonstrat-
ed ability to express himself clearly
and cencisely. He is held in high re-
gard and esteem by his colleagues and
is one of the hardest workers in Con-
gress."
Mr.. Leavitt has devoted much time
and study to agricultural conditions,
and in that connection was recognized
last fall by being named on special
congregational committee to draft
farm legislation. Since returning to
Montana last month he has been get
ting over the reclamation projects,
Indian reservations, and other places
to secure first hand information for
use when Congress reconvenes in
