Senator Helms statements that the
Knights OF Columbus are provoking war
with Mexico are entirely false and mali
cious' James A, FIahertv, Supreme
knight Of the knights Of Columbus, is
quoted as saying in I'll Nundo shortly
after landing Monday morning.
The position of our order is perfect
ly clear.
All the Knights Of Columbus has
done in regard to the Mexican situation
has been to place before the American
conscience the irrefutabie and cOucIu-
slve fact that the government Of PIutar
co Elias Gales is q Greet JooI of the
Soviet government of Russia, and that
every attack against religion and liberty
has been launched from Petrogr3d.
In c~oudemning the u~nspaakable afro
cities committed in Mexico we have
not made our energetic protests in the
name Of the Catholics residing in that
unfortunate Republic but in the name
oil all tue citizens who live under this
ab0minabIe tyfany. We consider them
all worthy of living the lives of free
men and WOrshIpping God in the way
they best see fit.
1t is untrue that we have instigated
revolutions, and it is still more false
that we are provoking hOstilities be-
tween Mexico and the United States.
We only desire to unmask the true mo-
tifes which move the present Mexican
government and to demonstrate TO the
public the danger which impends for
the democratic life of all nations on the
American continent. - Porto Rico Pro-

FEED LAW NOW
BEING APPLIED
More Than rs Brands Are
Licensed Since Work Began
in July, Baird Says

More than 1875 brands of feedstuff
have been licensed by the state reg
ulatory department since the work
of applying the new state feedstuff
law hogan in July. according to r. Y.
Baird, state chemist and head OF the
department. !,
The law requires that all feed
stuffs sold throughout the state, with
the exception of pure bran and
middlings, be anaylzed and registered
by the department for the protection
of purchasers. The analyses are
made in order that labels on the
packages may show the percentage
Of crude fiber and the minimum per
centages of fat and protein which
the feedstuff contains. Reinspec-
tions will be made to see that the
various feed manufacturers maintain
the standard specified upon their
labels.
Cooperation Is Good
Considerable difficulty has been
experienced in obtaining registration
of the hundreds of feedstuffs now
being offered for sale in the state
and the department inspectors have
been charged with visiting. places

Of the hotels, resta1rants and other

"The August forecasts Of the
United States department of agri-
culture were higher than forecasts
made a month earlier for all import

Rust Damage Varies
"Rust damage is an enigma. Early
sown wheat apparently escaped with
small damage. However, the plant
ingAseas0n was unusually long and
late sown grain has been badly in
jured in areas scattered throughout
the district. Rust damage to oats
has been very severe in Minnesota
and South~Dakota. The cool weather
since July % has been unfavorablc
for the development Of rust, but has
also retarded the growth of corn.
Crop prospects, in Montana and the
portion of Wisconsin included in
this district are excellent.

School Notes
By MARGARET EIDE
(High School Reporter)

Central's student body was de
lighted with the entertainment pro-
vided by the La Solana staff in a
special assembly yesterday morning
at the high school auditorium.
The program began with the
school song, sung by the student
body and directed by Miss Margaret
Collins, who also conducted the high
school orchestra which played be
tween numbers.
The curtain then rose on the skit
presented by the La Solana staff.
Two exceedingly dark darkies' -
had charge OF a shoe shining parlor
and magazine stand. As each Gus,
toner came in they showed him the
1927 annual, and he bought it.
Then group of Ccntralites rushed
in, each taking what appeared to be
q book with letter on the cover.
When al the customers stood in
line, the letters spelled La Solana.
The skit was presented to bring
before students and public the fact
that the hik-l school annual, La So
lana, is underway, and that tn"
staff is devoting much time and eff,
fort in making the edition fer 1927
better than any previous one.
