After he delivered his address
over KICK Monday, Congressman
Scott Leavitt addressed a meeting
of Indians at the Sherman hotel.
Superintendent H. D. McCulloch
of Poplar, and F. c. Campbell, gen.
eral superintendent of Indian
agencies in Montana, were pres
emit and made talks. A umber OF
Indians made speeches and told
Congressman Leavitt of the con
ditions existing on the Fort Peck
reservation, and made suggestions
as to help they would like to re-
ceive. Mr.. Campbell told them
that the conditions here were no
worse than they were all over, IN
fact the Fort Peck Indians are
better off than some Indians.
Scott Leavitt assured them that
he appreciated the confidence
they had in coming to him, ana
told them that he would try to
help them all he could at Wash
ington, and said that he was al
ways ready to do all that he could
for his constituents.
Among the Indians who talked
were Harvey Hamilton, Cloud,
Iron Horn, Isaac Miller, Blue
Horn, Charley Track, Bear Cub,
Henry Archdale, Circling Eagle,
Geo. Long, Night and several 9TH
ers whose names we did not get.
Interpreters we're Joshua Wetslt
and James Archdale.
Following this meeting Con-
gessman Leavitt went to Vida
where he spoke at an evening
meeting.

his colleague, Senator T. J. Walsh.
He will speak in Missoula, Oct.

Billings, Oct. 25.
Dynamic and forceful, Young
Bob" has inherited all of the
fighting heart Of his famous father
and, he is as little regardful of
traditions as his noted sire. But
he has a keen sense of humor,
and while his colleagues in the
Senate hold the utmost respect
for his incisive grasp of funda-
mentals in questions that arise in
the Senate, he is probably more
universally loved than any other
senator.
He states that because he has
the interests of the common peo-
pie at heart and because he Is
convinced that their cause can
only be safeguarded by sane pro-
gressives in Congress he is taking
the stump for Senator T. j. Walsh
in this State and will afterward
go to Colorado to speak in behalf
Of Senator Costigan and later to
to campaign for Sena-
tor Norris.
1t is a matter of record that
Senator Walsh, Norris and LaFol-

as a unit on all legislative
matters of importance.

CONNIE MACK'S A.. L. TEAM
FLY CHAMP BANNER FOh
ANOTHER YEAR

Connie Mack, who might be
placed in a mature aged ana o
orable quartet of successes with
Edison, Rockefeller and Ford as
the other three, will have the
glorious satisfaction of leading
the team bearing the title, worlds
baseball champions for another
year. The Philadelphia Athletics,
pennant winners in the American
league, demonstrated a clear SUI
premacy over the St. Louis Car
dinals, National league flag bear
ers, and a classy, hard lighting
team, by taking the first, second,
fifth and sixth games. Three
games, the first, second and sixth
we're played at Philadelphia and
the other three at st. Louis.
The end of the fourth game
found the series tied, 2 and 2. The
fifth game proved to be the cru
ciaI contest, and was declared by
the experts to be n of the great
est games ever played in a world
series.
Radio has made is possible Tor
the whole country to hear news
of the plays a minute or two after
they are made. The dyed in the
wool fans got their appetites
whetted for the delicious, closeup
word pictures in the newspapers
written by high salaried sports
writers such as Grantland Rice
and Alan Gould.
The 1880 series was fully UP to
expectations and brought a re-
freshing relief from the wrangle
of politics, the gloom OF business
depression talk, and the continued
story of crime and disaster.

CHANCE FOR STEEG
MAJORITY GROWS
Tardieu Faction Intends to
Withhold Confidence Vote,
However.
BY CAMILLE LEMERCIER.

BY Radio to The Star.
PARIS, France, December 15.-The
chances of the Steeg cabinets winning
a majority in the Chamber Of Deputies
Thursday seem greater, as former Pre-
mier Andre Tardieu, who is still the
powerful leader of the Right and Center
groups has decided not to- attack the
new government at its first meeting
with the Chamber. NJ. Tardieu and the
former ministers of his cabinet do not
intend to take part in the vote of con-
f1dence and some members Of the Gen.
ter groups will presumably adopt the
same attitude of abstention.
AS, on the other hand, the Socialists,
who number 108, will either abstain
from voting or support the government,
the Steeg cabinet will seemingly be en-
abled to live, but its life will probably
be precarious.
One important element in the politi-
cal situation here is the bad health of
Raymond Poincare, former President
and premier, who after a sudden indis-
position Saturday has been ordered to
take a complete rest. The fact that
M. Poincare, who is the only politician
who is able to bring together in the
same government representatives of the
Right and Left groups is decidedly too
Ill to come back to Office leaves the
ground free for party quarrels.
Under these conditions it seems prob
able that the Right majority, which
never has been defeated in the Cham
Der, will shortly after the new year
launch a decisive attack on the present
Left combination.

Indications of decline in the num-
ber of acquisitions, consultations and
mergers Of business institutions during
the last fiscal year, as compared with
the previous one, were seen today by
the Federal Trade Commission.
In its annual report to Congress the
commission said although no official
record had been kept, observation of
activity along this line has indicated a
general let-up since the depression of
November, 1929"
The commission, however, actively
pursued its inquiry into the affairs of
utility companies, some of which repre-
sented grouping of scores of power pro-
ducing companies. The American Gas
&S Electric Co., the Electric Bond &
Share Co., the American Power & Light
Co., the National Power 81 Light Co.
and the w. B. FoShay Co. were among
those to face investigation.
