JOHNSON CITY. Tenn. october
e.--In his address here late today to
the war veterans Herbert Hoover said:
This splendid home has long been
4 monument to the Solicitude of OR
Government for those who have made
heroic sacrifice in the service Of our
country. There is no greater obliga-
ton imposed upon nation than its
duty to those who have offered their
lives in its time of need. 1t is an ohli-
cation which must be discharged with
Justice and generosity to the full eX-
tent of Our ability. These beautiful
surroundings and all that goes with
them present evidence of the purpose
of our Government to perform that
obligation.
Desire Peace.
"There is no group in our country
which has a deeper or more vivid
realization and understanding of the
horrors of war than you who have suf-
fered from it. The desire of every
American is for peace. 1t is the aspira-
ton Of the entire world. The unspeak-
able experiences of war are still vivid
in mems minds as we'll as the narrow

peace. that is not earnestly striving for
peace.
Peace comes only as the result of
mutual good will and the determination
to eliminate by fair negotiation the
causes of misunderstanding and fric-
ton The maintenance Of peace de-
ponds upon a continuous effort to make
that good will effective. Our duty re-
Quires that We shall be increasing in
our endeavors to build up and strength
en- the fabric of friendly understanding
and mutual interest among nations. We
have earnestly wished for limitation
Of armament throughout the world as
q definite contribution to peace. But
peace must be founded upon respect.
We must be prepared for defense This
does not apply to aggression-it is a
contribution TO peace.
You have made the greatest sac
rif1ce that the sons of America can
make for their country. You have
given your health and sacrificed
your own rightful aspirations upon
her altar. The care here bestowed is
but partial discharge of an obligation
which the country can never fully re-
pay, but you hold something more
precious in the gratitude and affection
ate esteem Of your fellow countrymen
for those who have served the country

COUNTY PRIMARY
BALLOTS PROVE A
STUPENDOUS JOB

The News this week completed the
printing of the county primary bal
lots-and it was some job. The aver
age voters goes to the polls on July
II and casually takes his ballot and
proceeds to make an tx" in the front
of the names of each candidate he de-
sires to see indicted into office. In
doing so he has no inkling of the
work that was involved in printing
that simple looking sheet of paper
for him.
The first operation in getting the
ballot ready for him is in the hands of
the county clerk and his assistants.
This consists in checking up the
various names of the office seekers
throughout the county as the state
candidates list is sent from Helena
It is the work that is done in this
office that counts. If it is just hand
ed to the printer, then trouble com
mences. But if it is done as it was
in Red Lodge this year, then the
printer just prints. The copy received
from G. e. Thompson and his assist
ants was about the last word in cor
RICHNESS and the tired printers in The
News office wish to thank them fol
their cooperation.

Of course the story ends we'll. The
young man, who was represented in
the cast by Bert Merling, the leading
man, leaves his bride and goes abroad
where he puts in three years of study
elevating himself to a plane compar-
able with that of his wife. Miss Fran
ces Winton, leading lady, played the
part of the aristocratic bride, while
Forest Smith was the boys dad and
he played his part excellently.

DRIFT IN SYLVAN
PASS Is NOW TUN-
NELED THROUGH

The fore part of this week the Of
ficials OF the Burlington railroad were
notified by the National Park service
that the forest rangers have sue
eeeded in car-work of blasting and
digging a passageway wide enough
to permit Yellowstone motors to get
through a snow drift 40 feet deep,
that until this week covered the Cody
road at Sylvan Pass, says a special
dispatch from Chicago.
Albert Cotsworth, Jr., the Burling-
ton passenger traffic manager, said
in this connection: people back here
in this part Of the country have no
true conception of the snow conditions
that prevail in that colossal crevasse
through which the Cody road-fam-
Gus mountain motor highway to Vel
lowstone park-crosses the Absaroka
mountains The top of the pass has
an elevation of 5000 feet where the
road crosses but the rugged mountain
sides which flank the road rise up
much higher, forming a giant letter
w with the motor road down in the
point) into which the snow drifts to
depth Of 40 feet and sometimes
more. The protecting mountain sides
keep out the sun except for a short
interval during the day with the re-
suit that the snow lies here all the
year round, and although no snow
has fallen in the vicinity of Sylvan
Pass for many weeks past and sum-
mer weather prevails, the big drift in
the pass always has to be bored
through in order that the Yellowstone
park motors can operate over the 90
mile route between the city of Cody,
Wyo., and the national park.
This snow business is no joke up
there" Mr.. Cotsworth went on to say.
Cutting way through is heroic
job for large crew Of men armed
with snow shovels and dynamite. The
road doesn't run straight up there,
but rather twists and curves amazing
ly, and | remember distinctly how a
few years ago the snow crew lost the
road and shoveled quite long way
out through clearing in the timber
before they discovered that the road

; rection.
