SUE CAROL SETS MODE
IN captain SWAGGER

| Styles may come and styles may
go, but the tailored suit goes on for
ever, declares Sue Carol, one of the
prettiest and most popular young ac-
tresses on the screen.
The length of the skirt may go UP
or down and the style of the tailored
coat change accordingly, but for
years this type of garment has al
ways played an important part in the
wardrobe of the we'll dressed woman
Sue believes. 1t is always smart, and
appropriate to more occasions than
anything else.
Because she delights in little two
piece suits of various colors and ma
terial, in her own wardrobe, Sue was
pleased with the opportunity of wear
ing tailored suit in Captain Swag-
GER" Rod La Rocque's new star pic
ture which will be shown at the Iris
theatre on Sunday and Monday, April
% and goth, and in which she plays
the leading feminine role opposite the
star.
The suit Sue wears in Captain
Swagger' is of navy blue gabardine,
cut on very simple lines. She wears
navy blue felt hat, trimmed with
red, and saucy little red shoes with
the outfit, and succeeds in looking at
once demure and provocative.

HOOVER STATES
CASE IN MESSAGE

President Hoover's message to con-
gress is an epoch-makine document.
Called to the presidency because he
possessed an economic mind, Mr..
Hoover has given the country his
first formula for the solution of the
agricultural difficulties of the nation.
And his initial appeal is that this
question, long buffeted about in legis-
iative controversy. shall be trans
ferred from the field of politics to
the realm of economies"
Mr.. Hoover's suggestions do not
constitute an exact program. They
are rather a set OF principles. But
they are, nevertheless, specific in their
limitations and anybody familiar with
the dozens of proposals that have
been advanced in the last few years
for farm relief can tell exactly what
Mr.. Hoover means to include and ex-
clude.
For one thing there is a sharp d.
rergenee between his message and
the test of the new bill complied by
the house committee on agriculture.
Mr.. Hoover would clothe the new
federal farm board with broad powers
to find a remedy and apply it but he
would not handicap it by directing
that it engage, for instance, in the
advancing of money to control mar
ket prices.
Mr.. Hoover employees the language
of the conservative banker when he
outlines the principles that should
guide the new board in advancing
money out of the half billion dollar
revolving fund. He says that only
prudent advance" shall be made and
then only to farmer-owned and con-
trolled organizations for the pur-

S1EGFRIEDT DISPLAYS
AN ANCIENT INSECT

When the Rocky mountain range
of this section was uplifted, many
peculiar things happened, according
to DR.. J. C. F. Siegfriedt of Bear
creek, in an interview in the Billings
Gazette. Doctor Siegfriedt was to
leave Billings, Tuesday morning, aft
er having spoken Monday afternoon
before members of the Woman's club.
One of the peculiar things that hap
pened, according to the doctor, was
that trough was caused so to 70
million years ago. As centuries went
by the trough filled with debris from
the mountains and with water. As
the shore line of this trough known
as the Eocene sea, which at one time
covered the territory from the Rock
les to Bismarck, n. D., and from
Canada to northern Mexico, filled out,
a great deposit of silt was left, and
with it thousands and millions of in
sect species of bees, beetles, mosqui-
tos and small flies.
Fourteen specimens of these insects
were exhibited by Doctor Siegfriedt
in his lecture before the Woman's
club.
A second display Doctor Siegfriedt,
physician who studies paleontology.
exhibited, was that of flat stone of
the same period, which bore on it the
impression of several leaves, one of
which was of the Ginko tree, now ex-
tinet in America, but found in China.
Hard maple leaves so million years
old, and willow leaf were also I'M
bedded in the stone. Doctor Sieg-
friedt also has collection of tropi-
cal fern specimens which show that
at one time Montana was possessor
of steady summer temperature.
Magnolia leaves have also been found
in the Bearcreek region in the Red
Lodge coal fields which Doctor Sieg-
friedt has examined.
Other specimens exhibited by the
doctor included fine specimen of
primitive tooth that may have once
been owned by Adam, and aAout so
specimens of small jaws and teeth Of
mammals of the Eocene period. Eo-
Gene is the term that means early re-
cent age.

SUSPECT GIVEN JAIL
SENTENCE IN BILLINGS

Judge Robert C. Stong sentenced
Ray Bradford, charged with carrying
concealed weapons, to serve a tern
of so days in the county jail in Bill
lings. Bradford, who was arraignet
Saturday, was without counsel. Brad
ford was arrested last week under
suspicion of being a burglar impli.
Gated in the recent series of store
robberies and safe crackings in towns
throughout this section of the state
NJ. c. Holmes, assistant county at
torney of Yellowstone county, asked
for penitentiary sentence for Brad
ford on the grounds that there was
considerable evidence that the mar
he'd been engaged in a series of store
burglaries at Edgar, Fromberg, Hy.
sham and Custer. In the car in which
Bradford was arrested by the city po-
lice were found number of tools
which could be used in safe breaking
and burglary operations. Two socks
filled with nickels also gave grounds
for suspicion that they came from
slot vending machines broken into at
several places.
Judge Stong, in refusing to give
the heavier sentence asked for by the
county attorneys office, said that he
thought the charge should stand on
its own merits as one of concealed
weapons and not be used to cover up
the weak points in the evidence of
burglary.
The law in regard to carrying con-
cealed weapons provides for a fine
not to exceed $500 or imprisonment
in the county jail not to exceed six
months or both or Imprisonment in
the state penitentiary for a period
not to exceed five years.
Bradford was arrested after police
had found him in possession of a car
which correspondent closely with one
seen at Pryor and Edgar about the
time that burglars or attempted bur-
glaries occurred. Few articles were
taken in any of the store breakings
that could be identified, although of
ficers claim some slot machines slugs
were found. Besides the pistol found
on Bradford's person, two other guns
were found in the car, officers claim.
Bradford had been about here for
some time under the name of Joe Muir
ply, officers say.

FIRST GOLD DISCOVERY
DILLON CONTROVERSY

Whether the first gold from Mon
tana that found it's way to the United
States mint, came from Bannock is
matter that has aroused consider
able controversy among Dillon resi-
dents interested in the early history
|of that section.
The first discovery Of the yellow
metal in Montana is credited to a
Frenchman known as Bentesse, who
settled at Gold Creek in 1852, but in
1856 there appeared at Fort Benton
a prospector, later known as John
Silverthorn, who traded a sack of
gold for $1,000 which was later found
to be worth $1,000, and was supposed
to have been discovered in southwest
ern Montana.

arise from flush flows due to periodic
over-production, from feverish conf
petition and offset drilling, with its
consequence in unnecessary diversion
of oil from gasoline to fuel on such
occasions. Had such control been in
action during the last three years, not
only would the present situation not
have arisen, but the vast present
waste of oil by diversion from gaso-
line to fuel would not be taking place.
While such course could not be
wholly applied to old pools, it could
be made effective in new pools and
new strata. 1t is upon this program
that the board has sought cooper
alton of the industry. To solely close
off production temporarily to relieve
present congestion and stop the inn
mediate waste of gasoline to fuel
would not effect the real problem
that is, the long view wastes men,
toned above.
1t was determined by the legal ad-
visory committee mentioned above
that there were no constitutional
grounds upon which the federal gov
eminent could impose such regulation
OF drilling, but that the sole legal au-
thority for such action lies within the
state governments themselves. Sug-
gestions were made which have been
or are in course of discussion in the
legislatures in various oil producing
states.
The problem appears to the board,
therefore, due to the legal inhibitions,
to be one in the real solution of which
action must be secured from the diff
ferent states. The board recognizes
that individual state action without
coordination would not cover the
question, but with a view to bringing
about such program and its co-or-
dination, the board believes it would
be worth while to renew discussion
with the state authorities of the three
or four principal oil producing states,
particularly to learn if it is not posi-
Bile for them to enter upon an inter-
state compact under the provisions
of the Constitution authorizing such
compacts to which the federal gov
eminent through congressional action
would be a party. The character of
such compact would need much
consideration, but it could we'll COM
prise creating joint board for the
purpose of constructive conservation
and thus secure the nation from the
real peril that will lie in the reckless
exhaustion of our oil resources. With
this in view the board is planning to
have DR.. George Otis Smith, in its
behalf, visit and interview the COVER
nors of three or four dominating oil
producing states and learn their views
upon such a proposal.
1t believes that the above sugges-

1859 STATE OWNED
CARS ARE EXEMPTED

Despite bitter political bat lie S
waged over the number of state own
ed automobiles an increase is noted
in check of the registration lists
compiled by Warden Austin B. Mid
dleton, registrar of motor vehicles.
The list of exemptions for state
owned cars show that state depart
ments operate at least 1859 passenger
cars and trucks.
! The largest number accredited to
one department is listed under the
highway commission, which operates
81 cars and trucks. Although many
of these are heavy duty motors such
as White, F. w. D, Pierce Arrow,
there are 40 lighter models listed I'M
der this department including 46
Chevrolets and Fords, Chrysler, a
Buick and Pontiac. With the con-
tinued extension of the highway pro-
gram additional motor vehicles will be
needed, it is explained.
Even at conservative average
value for the motors placed at $780,
the state investment in the vehicles
would be slightly less than 100000
it is pointed out. This does not take
into account the requirements and re-
pairs, gasoline and tires.
With the exception of the state
fish and game commission, reuuisi-
tons for purchase are first filed with
State Purchasing Agent j. E. Muir
ply, who has the reputation of being
a close buyer. The requistion is
placed in the hands Of the state board
Of examiners consisting of Governor
j. E. Erickson, Attorney General L.
A. Foot and w. E. Harmon, who must
give final approval. The fish and
game commission files acquisitions
direct with the board, the attorney
general having ruled that the state
purchasing agent has no jurisdiction
because of a popularity of the stat
utes.
The various state departments OPP
Grating cars and trucks are fish and
game, ID, including Fords, Chevro-
lets, a Buick and Dodge Graham
trucks; state hospital at War m
Springs, eight cars and trucks; state
forest service, 10; board of railroad
commissioners, five Chevrolets, state
prison at Deer Lodge, eight cars, in
GLIDING Franklin, assigned to War
den Middleton and Chevrolets, Fords
and Pierce Arrow, girls vocational
school, three; tuberculosis sanitarium
at Galen, four; Montana soldiers
home at Columbia Falls, two.
Other departments operate one OF
two cars such as Industrial school at
Miles City; state fire marshal; live
stock sanitary board; state equaliza-
ton board and others.
Mystery is attached by the manner
of listing one car in the exempted
! list which is registered as 1922 state
car" There is no other Identified
ton.

SECRETARY WILBUR ON
CONSERVATION OF OIL

Secretary Ray Lyman Wilbur, of
| the Department of the Interior, as a
member of the Federal Oil Conserva-
ton Board, and speaking for his as
sociates, James W. Good, Secretary
of War; Charles F. Adams, Secretary
of the Navy; and Roberts P. Lamont,
Secretary of Commerce, has sent to
r. c. Holmes, Chairman of the Gen
eral Committee of the American Pet
roleum Institute the following letter.
The Board has now given consider
alton to questions effecting the waste
of oil due to the present large over
production. | may recall that at our
meeting with your directors resolu-
tons were presented which had been
adopted by the American Petroleum
Institute proposing restriction of the
production of petroleum in the United
States during the year 1929 to an
amount not in excess of the 1923 pro-
duction and asking the approval of
the Board to such course.
AS explained to the directors of the
Institute, the oil conservation board
possesses no authority to approve
such an agreement as that proposed
and the Board is advised that such
action on the part of the Institute
would possibly constitute violation
of the Sherman act. It would fur
Their appear that the joint legal COM
mittee appointed in December, 1927,
of which three members were chosen
by the American Bar association,
three by the government and three by
the petroleum institute, came to the
same conclusion, and recommended
Legislation.
Purely negative action does not
cure the prime difficulty-the rapid
waste of our oil resources. The pur-
pose of the board has been to find a
constructive method for the preven-
ton of the present reckless waste of
oil and it naturally sympathizes with
every practical step.
AS you are aware, the investiga-
lions of the board over the past few
years have demonstrated large wastes
in the production and utilization of
our oil, and an alarming prospect as
to our future supplies. It's conclus-
ion, in which it has been confirmed
by scientific investigation and con-
siderable part of the industry, were
that in the long view the positive
method of conservation is the initial
control of development through the
controlling of drilling to the end that
upon discovery of a new oil pool a
plan for its development should be
established which would prevent the
waste of gas, the consequent loss of
gas pressures and its serious effect
upon the total yield of the pool and
to prevent other great losses which

stability to the industry, should vastly

gain a less amount of employment
from imports"
This message is, on the whole, a
continuation of the conservative doc
trine which has been the fundamental
doctrine of the Republican party but
it recognizes the need for experiment
and revision in both the tariff and
agricultural credit laws in the light
of new factors and the new world
conditions.
