PUBLIC POLICIES
STRESSED BY RADIO
Women Voters Head Urges
! People to Heed Hoover's
Inaugural Message.

Miss Belle Sherwin, president OF the
National League of Women Voters, spoke
on the significance of Inauguration day
over the Columbia Broadcasting Co.'S
national hook-up yesterday shortly after
the conclusion of President Hoover's in
augural address.
Referring to the day as commence
anent day in the school of democratic
life" Miss Sherwin stressed the impor-
fance to voters of needing and under
standing the words of the Chief Execu-
five in relation to the national policies
OF all the people.
"These policies" Miss Sherwin said,
sare our common concern-those mat
tiers which transcend State boundaries
and local interest and purely personal
affairs. At one point or another OF pub
lie welfare national policies may
become of vital and personal interest
to YOU. To be informed about your own
affairs is only prudent. Not to give
heed to them is bad business. 10 give
heed to public policies is but good busl-
ness on the part of citizens in democ-
racy. Not to do so undermines the
Government we boast, which we take
too much for granted we uphold, and
which by indifference we unconSciouSly
deny.
IAN Inauguration day reiterates the
obligation of the people to play their
part in government, and in the person
Of a new leader makes new appeal to
do so with a zest. The day is, in truth
for the rank and file of citizens as we'll
as for the new administration, Com
mencement day in the school of demo-
cratic life"

NEVER LOOK TIGER IN

Another school book tradition is ex-
ploded.
Never look tiger, leopard or lion
in the re in case you meet one.
If You do, they know they have
been seen and instinctively feel they
are to be attacked. Their strategy is
always to make quick charge.
Look over their heads or to one
side until you get your gun aimed
Then, if the beast is still there, you
have chance. Otherwise, turn and
walk away, hdping something big

SDOkane Cafe
To Advertise Libby

Recently R. R. Veldman, secretary
of the Libby Commercial club, re-
ceived letter from w. E. Bonham,
manager Of the Hotel Spokane, OF
Spokane, offering to cooperate with
Libby in an advertising idea. Bonham
said he was arranging with various
communities in the Inland Empire to
send him advertising matter printed
on a sheet Of a certain size which he
would attach to the back of the menus
used by the Silver Grill in the hotel.
He said about 10000 people patron
lied the Gill monthly, which gives
an idea Of the advertising value of
the plan.
Complying with the suggestion A.
A. Wood, chairman of the advertising
committee of the commercial club, pre-
pared the text Of an advertisement
stating the attractions of Libby for
the business man, the homeseeker, the
tourist and the sportsman. This was
printed by the Western News office
on sheet of the required size, with
a scenery view along the Kootena'
river at the top and small cut OF
the J. 'Neils Lumber company saw
mill at the bottom. 1t makes neat
and effective advertisement for Libby
The idea was a clever one on the
part of the Hotel Spokane manager
and will be appreciated by the com
munities which will benefit by his
thoughtfulness.

Health Survey
OF Libby
City Officials Plan Further
Work in Eradicating In
sanitary Conditions.
PASTEURIZED MILK
NOW AVAILABLE

At its deferred meeting held last
Tuesday evening the city council, be-
sides attending to its regular busi-
ness, went further into the detail Of
curbing the typhoid epidemics which
have for many years been prevalent
IN the city. The pasteurizing program
is getting well under way and when
he public becomes conversant with thu
benefits to be derived from the use
of pasteurized milk, it will real
ize its value because the pasteurizing
process and the extra care and pre-
cautions used in its production and
the inspection it receives will insure
to the public better, healthier milk
supply than before.
Another part of this program In
survey of the city by a deputized
health officer which will give infor-
nation as to the proper sanitary con-
dItion Of all business and resident
property or show the lack Of same
and in the latter case the proper mea-
sures for making place sanitary
will be carried out.
Another move for better sanitation
that will undoubtedly be consummated
in few days is the purchase by the
city of plot Of ground for public
dump. This matter has never been
properly taken care of and certain
state laws governing the dumping Of
refuse could never be enforced for
lack Of proper dumping facilities. This
will soon be remedied and the law
governing same enforced.
The council is earnest in it's effort
to put through such measures as will
insure for Libby cleaner, more sani-
tary city and thus healthier place
in which to live and should receive
the hearty cooperation Of each in
dividual in their work. We have the
promise of further reports from the
council as work progresses and the
public will be fully informed in these
matters OF vital interest to them. Join
with the council and help put this pro-
gram over.

Big Improvementin
Rainy Greek Road

Ed. Smith, road supervisor for
County Commissioner Brink, states
that his crew will finish an import
ant piece Of road work this week at
Rainy creek. The two bad hills in that
section are being eliminated. Start
ing west of the Rainy creek crossing,
the new road leaves the old highway
and swings down toward the river,
following around the hill about half
way between the old road and the
river. Rainy creek is crossed with a
fill and culvert. The new road makes
connection with the highway after
passing the high hill east of Rainy
creek. This eliminates one bad hill
and a small pitch at the bridge. Su-
pervisor Smith says the new road has
not to exceed three per cent grade.
Smith also states that it is planned
to widen to "a feet the narrow rocky
stretch along the river between LIB
by and Jennings. This work will be
done next fall and arrangements have
been made to use the big gas electric
shovel Of the J. Neils Lumber COM
pany for the work. That is one OF the
worst stretches Of road in this sec
tion and its widening will be a real
improvement.
Supervisor Smith states that both
of these improvements will be made
on locations made by state highway
engineers, on the t. r. highway.

Death Valley
SCotty Visits
This District
Unique Character Squan-
dered Immense Sums, Is
Prospecting Here.
WAS IN LIMELIGHT
Is to 80 YEARS AGO

Death Valley Scotty of unique fame
is prospecting in the Libby district.
At least there is an individual here
who has every earmarks of being the
Incompatible Scotty, who says he is
and who seems to have proofs to sub
stantiate his contention. Ira Tester
met and visited with the man on Ced-
ar creek and County Attorney Her.
bert had quite visit with him on
Libby creek. Scotty stating that he was
heading into the Fisher river district.
He has good outfit, team, wagon
and camping equipment.
In conversation with the Libby men,
. the visitor said he was Scotty and
produced big assortment of news
paper clippings telling Of Scotty's
escapades and history. Many Of the
clippings were worn and faded. Re-
cent pictures in the clippings were
plainly cuts Of the man visiting here.
Death Valley Scooty shot into fame
some 25 or 80 years ago when he
suddenly appeared in cities Of south
ern California with the widely her.
aided statement that he had discov-
cred gold mine--a bonanza--in
Death Valley and began to throw
money right and left in careless aban-
don, SO it is said. Crowds followed
him wherever he appeared and he was
the sensation of the day One of his
exploits, according to reports, was the
chartering of a special train to east
ern cities where his prodigious spend
ing brought columns Of publicity in
the press Of the day. It is said he
squandered q million or two. Accord
ing to the stories of the day, when
ever he ran short of funds he would
return secretly to his mine in Death
Valley and would reappear within a
few weeks with fortune in his jeans.
In conversation with County Attorney
Herbert and before Scotty had stated
who he was, Herbert asked him It he
had ever struck it rich. "Oh, there
have been times" replied Scotty,
.when | have had money to throw to
the BIRDS Herbert quotes him as
saying. Many have attempted to fol-
low him into Death Valley in the en-
deavor to. locate the source OF his
great wealth but no one ever succeeded
in learning Scotty's secret
Scotty is now about 75 years old
and weighs about $50 pounds. In his
younger days he was much larger.
One of Scotty's most exciting expert
ences, according to report, was when
he was attacked by band OF eight
or nine desperadoes on robbery bent.
Scotty killed six or seven OF them,
it is said, but was himself 50 severely
wounded that he was confined to a
hospital for many months. Since that
time, states Herbert, he has never
been the man physically that he was
before the fight.
Some reports are to the effect that
Scotty is now broke; others state he
has an estate in Southern California
worth million or two. Whether rich
or poor, his has beena colorful life.
Rumors Of the hidden wealth in Lib
by's mountains must have reached
him to bring him into this district.

Red Cross Official
VisitSIinC0ln County

Miss Irene Begley, field representa-
tive for the National Red Cross, was
in Libby July 3, and on organi-
cation and inspection work
Miss Begley stated that there is a
program being launched in all the
counties in the state at present on
disaster preparedness. The recent
flood in Wibaux, Montana, has awak-
ened people to the necessity of such
preparedness, and the project Of a
disaster "set-up" is being received
with favorable cooperation in many
communities.
The Lincoln communities are to be
organized very soon, and r. B. Callow
Of Troy has been named chairman. His
committee will include sub-chairman-
ships in food, clothing; medical atten-
tion and other disaster preparedness
branches selected from Libby and
Troy Red Cross chapters and names
will be announced later.
Libby has two great disaster haz-
ards, forest fires, and floods said
Miss Begley last Friday, in comment
ing on the suddenness with which such
catastrophies descend upon a commu-
nifty. "Wibaux's only hazard was a
little stream, not six feet wide, and
very shallow, year ago, but due to
cloud-burst, this stream became a
torrent fifteen feet in height which
nearly devastated community of
600 homes early in June. Therefore,
it is we'll that such a.county commit
tee be prepared at all times for the
unforeseen emergencies which call
upon Red Cross reserves"
Miss Begley spent part of her time
in Troy, and officers have been elected
there for that branch. A meeting will
be held in the fall in Libby for the
purpose of reorganization, as is done
each year. Miss Begley left Friday
for Kalispell, where she will continue
her work.

TWO DANGEROUS FIRES
AT EDGE OF TOWN

During the past week two fires oc-
Cured on the Pival acreage tract in
southwest Libby, and had it not been
for the prompt acNson of nearby prop
erty owners, the forest service and the
fire department, either of these fires
would have soon grown into a menace
to every residence in South Libby.
One of them started on the night of
July 3rd from holiday fireworks and
was spreading rapidly toward the
residence section when placed under
control. This fire is simply indicative
of what carelessness with firecrack-
ers. skyrockets, etc. can do when
placed in careless hands near property
values. Shooting skyrockets into tim
bered areas or onto the roofs of your
neighbor's houses may be delight
full thrill but is best appreciated by
the fellow who doesn't own the prop
erty, The law prohibiting the dis
charge Of dangerous fireworks within
or near the city limits, or within
forests areas, should be strictly en-
forced by the proper officials, and
promptly reported by all citizens who
value either their lives or their prop
erty
The second fire on this area oc-
Cured on the afternoon Of July 9th,
and resulted from the criminal negli-
gence Of someone who abandoned a
campfire without making any attempt
whatever to extinguish it. Whoever
built this campfire violated the laws
of good workmanship right at the
start by building it in ground litter
of decomposed logs, punky wood,
grass, needles, etc. In this class of
material even tiny spark can smoul-
der along for long period of time
before breaking out in flames or
smoke great enough to be seen for
any distance. In addition to this no
attempt had been made to scrape sur
face material away prior to building
the campfire, in order to prevent the
fire escaping should the party be abb
sent for even minute or two. Many

by the failure of campers to take
