BOBCAT Band now
ON ANNUAL TOUR
Left Monday Morning for a Trip
Including Several Mon
tana Towns

The Bobcat Band left Monday morn
ing in a special ccach for its an
nual tour of the state. The train will
carry them to the northern part of
the state where six concerts will be
given on successive nights, starting
April s. The towns to be visited are
Cascade, Conrad, Choteau, Fort Ben
ton, Big Sandy and Havre.
The State College Reglmental band
has made friends throughout Montana
in the twenty years that it has been
under the direction of Louis Howard.
Today it ranks as enc Of the great
college bands Of this region; not a
group Of amateur musicians playing
low grade music, but a selection Of
good collegiate musicians, many Of
whom are earning their school ex-
penses by their musical work. Some
of the band members on their vaca-
tions do professional playing in yell
lowstone park and theatre organiza-
tons. Many members Of both Toxic
Village and Rose Garden orchestras
of Bozeman are on the band trip.
An exceptionally fine program has
been arranged this year by Director
Lou Howard and included in it are
instrumental solos anu duets, a trio,
and a vocal solo. The band has been
working for some time in anticipation
of the concert tour and one Of the
most e~ntertaing and successful pro-
grams thus far has been promised.

MANY PROSPECTS
OUT FOR TRACK
Hard Schedule Ahead of Cinder
Artists for This
Year

Track prospects are fairly bright
for Montana State this year as a
large number of candidates are work
ing out regularly and among whom
r letter men and tracksters Of ex-
p~erience. All other schools in the con-
ference report strong teams and ac-
cOrding to dope this year will be one
of close competition. Montana State
has a good schedule including the
Conference meet in Colorado about
the middle Of May, the state ~intercol-
legiate the second week in May, a
cross country meet at Dillon the las.
of May. There will be several meets
here at home such as the intramural
lettermen VS. non-lettermen, and the
annual cross country run.
From last years squad there are.

Business and Financial Conditions
in the United States

have been fairly ~reassuring. Indus
trial activity is well sustained. En-
ployment has continued to increase.
The volume of wholesale and retail
trade compares favorably with that
of a year ago, despite the adverse in
fluence of extremely cold weather
throughout many parts Of the country.
Commercial bank loans are somewhat
larger than at this time Of last year,
and have increased in recent weeks.
The movement Of railway freight
traffic and the amount of payments
by check beth indicate a level of ac-
tivity somewhat higher than a year
ago. A recent report of the American
Railway association estimates that
revenue freight loadings for the first
IS weeks of this year will surpass by
about one-half Of 1 per cent the cor
responding total fer 1925.
Factors Making for Uncertainty
Those who predict a decline in bust
ness later II the year base their con-
tentions on the belief that domestic
production cannot be maintained at
its present high levels; that building
activity must decline; that foreign
trade factors are unfavcrable; that
real estate speculation and instalment
buying have resulted in Some degree
Of initiation; and that the psychology
Of a depressed stock market will af-
feet general business, restricting init
ative and forcing retrenchment.
, Most Of the usual induces of bust
ness activity and prospects, however,
are favorable, and business develop
ments generally are satisfactory, not.

especially significant that, in spite o.
the rapid decline in security value.

d ments, there has been no marked in

The two severe downward reactions
in stock prices in March ~unquestion-
ably present the outstanding financial
development of the year to date,
states the current issue of the Guar
anty Survey, issued by the Guaranty
Trust company OF New York.
Fer many months there has been
evidence of general belief on the part
of the business community that stock
values had risen TO q higher level than
was warranted by the business situa-
ton and outlook, and that a down
ward readjustment was inevitable, the
Survey explains. This belief was
manifested and at the same time
strengthened by the gradually in
cTeasing weakness in the security
price structure which began with the
advance Of the discount rates of four
Federal Reserve banks last Ncvem-
Der. Inssmuch as the violent recess
sion in the early DAYS of March was
remarkable for its a~bruptness rather
than its actual extent, it was not sur
prising when renewed weakness ap.
peared later in the month.
Business Developments Reassuring
The effect Of the decline has nat
urally been to unsettle opinion re
specting the future course of the Sc
Curity markets and OF general bust
ness as we'll. This effect has bee.
heightened by the weakness recentl
displayed by prices of ccmmoditie.

cordingly whether the price decline il
dicates a need for added caution

view, the question is whether the ow-

Miller Automatic
Feeder Press

In the days of Benjamin Franklin, printing was a tedious and
imperfect process.
Even up to a few years ago, while the quality Of the finished
product was raised to a high standard, handled presses limited
the quantity of work that could be turned out.
With the advent of the Automatic Feeder Press, however, speed
of production was doubled and trebIed-and that without impair
ment of quality In fact, on certain printing jobs the Automatic
Feeder does better work than could be accomplished with hand
fed machines.
The Courier is equipped with a Miller Automatic Feeder Press,
like the one pictured above: On ordinary jobs it can deliver
from S,4OO to $500 pieces an hour - printing of the highest
quality. It's speed cuts production costs materially and enables
us to quote lower prices on high-standard work.
Let us bid on your next Job, whether it be 500 or $4,000 pieces.
We can quote lower prices, quality considered than can COM
pettOrs who use handled presses. The Automatic makes the
saving; we pass It on TO you.

Indications that very good settlement might

A Federal Judge Deserves $4,000
Chicago Tribune)

bill seeking to raise the salaries of federal
judges from $780, and $500 year to $4,000 is
pending in congress. judiciary committee men,
bers seek to curtail the raise making the salary
$4,000. Federal judges deserve $4,000 year. To
cut that sum to $4,000 is penny pinching.
There q circuit judges in the United States,
drawing salary of $500 year, and l3l district
judges, receiving $500 year. The proposed cut
ting of the salary provisions in the bill amounts to
100000. not very large item for four billion
dollar country in compensatng its federal judges.
The federal judiciary should not be measured in
terms Of dollars and cents. The fact that they
need more money in order to maintain living stand
ard commensurate with their office is ncontestable
salary of $4,000 is not too much. and congress
should grant it.
