SENATOR WALSH
INTRODUCES HLWAY
BILL In The SENATE
Is Identical With One in
House by Representative
Scott LeaVitt

Considerable interest has been oc-
casioned the past few days by various
Associated Press reports emanating
from Washington with regard to the
Red Lodge Cooke City highway bill
which is now being fostered in the ma
tional capitol.
The Billings Gazette yesterday
wired to Washington to endeavor to
get correct slant on the various re-
ports and had the following to say:
1.-THE introduction of a bill by Sen
ator I. J. Walsh for the Red Lodge
highway to the Yellowstone park
boundary near Cooke City is sub
stitute for the bill introduced by the
senator at the beginning of the SEES
sion and was made so that the bills
before the house and senate will be
identical, according to a message re
ceived from Guy Mooney, private sec
rotary of Congressman Scott Leavitt.
Senator Walsh introduced bill on
Dec. Is, which was the same one
that he introduced at the previous
congress, according to Mr.. Mooney.
Senator Walsh said at the hearing be-
fore the senate postoffice and post
roads committee Friday and again
Saturday, that he intended to intro
duce a substitute bill in the form of
the house bill introduced by Congress
man Leavitt, calling for a direct fed
eral appropriation so that bills be-
fore the senate and house will be
identical.
Hearings are being held by both
house and senate committees on the
same bill, Mr., Mooney says. Senator
Walsh, Congressman Leavitt and 0.
H. P. Shelley, supported the measure
at the hearing on Saturday by the
senate committee"
1t would appear by the above that
the original bill as introduced in the
committee, calling for an appropria-
ton of 81, 943,000 was the one that is
now being introduced in the upper
house by Senator Walsh. In order to
expedite the matter the bill in the
senate is preceding the one in the
house, but both will be carried along
together.

TOUCH WITH HAWAII;
RECEPTION CLEAR

The local amateur station, 7AAT,
owned and operated by Orville w.
Viers, installed a new transmitter

spent in adjusting for the best re-
suits. On the fourth call the U. S.
S. Guide, off the coast of Hawaii, was
raised. The ships transmiter was
tuned to 1919 meters and the call was

.ceived 1876 votes to "A cast for Aho

1913 for Wilson and 4S for Newman;
in the Second ward he received 1874
votes to rs for Wilson and 81 for
Newman; while in the Third ward he
received 206 votes to 102 for Wilson

.jority over both his opponents and a

Poison Healthy Cattle To Deter mine Which Of Herd Is

 Does anyone think that we could eradicate tuberculosis among human beings if we could simply remove all the sufferers from tuberculosis from the countryg Would that prevent the disease among poor undernourished stun children or must We improve liv ing conditions and the health of the people in order to eradicate tubercu- losisg
 In many states a campaign is on to eradicate tuberculosis among cattle by simply killing off the diseased stock. How long will it Dc before the condi- tions which have caused the disease in the present cattle will again cause the disease in the remaining cattle from getting tuberculosis regardless of the conditions under which these remain ing cattle are kept. Can the farmer give them poor feed, bad sleeping quarters and dirty water and be free from tuberculosis among his stock?
 Even if such a thing were possible the method used to find the afflicted cows is certainly remarkable. They don't examine them as we do hu- man beings for tuberculosis but they inject preparation called tuhercu- lin into the cows. Then by reading the signs" the government employee decides whether or not the COW has tuberculosis. We inject a poison into all of the cows in order to find the sick ones. IL has been found that children have sometimes become sick after drinking milk from cows which had just been inoculated with "tuber culn." It has also been found that cows which are pretty far gone" from tuberculosis do not react to the inoculation and so are sometimes left in the herd.
 How much better to spend the money used for this work in helping the farmers clean up their farms and showing them how to care for their cows so as to prevent tuberculosis. But that doesn't sell any "tubercu- lin" so the work goes merrily on and can be repeated year after year as new cases of tuberculosis develop due to poor care of the cattle, and the work will 20 on until the taxpay- CTS rise up and say, Your intentions may be good but your method is wrong" Let us prevent tuberculosis in dairy cattle in the same way as we have decreased it among human beings and that is by providing bet ter living conditions and better care.
