There has been an organized
program of instruction and edu-

United States department of agri-

the Farmers National Grain cor

a REMARKABLE TRIBUTE

(Tom Stout In His DemocratNews)
The really stupendous majority given Senator T. =. Walsh
for his fourth term in the United States senate constitutes as
fine a tribute s was ever paid to any man in the public life OF
our country. The senator was opposed by no weakling. Judge
Galen had shown sufficient popularity to be elected attorney
general and, later, a member of the states highest court. Few
men in Montana have a larger circle OF ardent. personal friends
among them being many of the most influential people In the
state. The Judge simply had the misfortune to oppose a man
whose public services have been of such character that it was
inconceivable to the great majority Of our people that he should
be denied a reelection to the post which he has filled with such
commanding distinction to himself and his state. The exceptional
yigor of the attacks made upon him by the opposition led many
people beyond the borders of Montana to believe that there was
a chance that Senator Walsh would be defeated. These out
siders thought that the real issue was prohibition. Such was not
the case. No doubt Senator Walsh gained many votes from
dry republicans and lost some from wet democrats; but he would
have won by a very large majority had that question never enter
ed the campaign. He won because of the profound respect which
the average citizen has for his outstanding abilities and lofty
character. Attacks aimed at him were as weak arrows directed
against a stone wall. He returns to his post with such an in
dorsement Is n o man ever received in this state for such a posi-
ton. Before him lie at least six years of service which may
be assured will only add to his already great fame and to the
distinction of his state as well. He will bring to bear upon the
during his fourth term the ripened wisdom of real statesman
the high councils of the republic. Although he will be living in
or lessening Of devotion to those lofty ideals to which he has
chung with singular fidelity throughout his long career. We feel
that there will be great need, during these coming six years for
men of his sort, men whose faith in upright justice and in
public service is never dimmed.

turned their meat-producing ami
mails to gnawing heavily into the
wheat surplus instead of the usual
corn diet in a larger volume than
ever before, in the opinion of
federal and private crop statistic
ians, according to a recent survey
made by the agricultural editor of
a Chicago daily newspaper.
"One of the conclusions of the
survey was that the shortest corn
crop in % years is not bringing
the high corn prices that had been
anticipated, as it has been pos
sible for livestock producers to
substitute wheat at lower costs
than corn, and that as a result the
corn belt farmer will help the
wheat farmer in providing a re-
sistance point below which wheat
prices + not likely to drop"

PRESIDENT cLAPP is GRATEFUL

With the passage on Election Day Of referendum measures 80
and "a, DR.. c. Fl. Clapp, president of the State University of Montana,
expressed his feeling on the results of the election The measures
provide for the building and equipment needs of the IA state insutn-
lions and continue the support of all these institutions and services
by authorizing a bond issue and tax levy respectively. President
CIapp said:
1.-THE passage of these measures insures the financial soundness
of the state government, and will permit the Legislature to make the
necessary appropriations to maintain Montanas institutions of higher
education at a satisfactory level, and eve to permit some slight
development. 1t also gives the legislature enough money to meet
certain pressing building needs at this and other state institutions, but,
of course, nothing specific with regard to what can be done VIII be
known until after the adjournment II the legislature.
1T is certainly very gratifying during this hard year, a year OF
real suffering, to have had the people of the state show their conf
dence in the institutions a S they did, with a substantial majority vote
OF several thousand more than ten years ago when the expiring
referendum measures IS and 10 were passed"

BUNK
(Harlem News)

A rumor is being circulated all over this country. to the
effect that President Hoover is shortly to give. his approval to
the manufacture of beer containing 275 per cent alcohol. The
brewers, according to the rumormongers, are ordering new ma
chinery by the miHiondollars' worth, and before New Years
Day expect to put several hundred thousand men at work max
ing beer, buying quantities Of grain from the farmers for this
purpose, and thus at one stroke restoring farm prosperity, elimin-
ating unemployment and repeating the Eighteenth Amendment
and the Volstead Law!
1t is interesting, but 1t is all bunk. Nothing of the sort will
be done. 1t would not be worth paying any attention to, were
it not for the fact that it is not only being passed by word of
mouth 10 business men, bankers and others who are in doubt
whether to believe it or not. Even if the President desired to
open the door to the free manufacture and sale of real beer, of
which desire there is not the slightest evidence, there is no
authority under the Prohibition law or any other whereby he
could do so. The law Is extremely clear and explicit. No bever-
age containing more than onehalf of one per cent of alcohol can
legally be made r be sold in the United States, and only Con
gress can change that. The likelihood Of any such action by the
present Congress or the next is about equal to the likelihood of
a collision between the earth and the moon.
We know whereof we speak, when we say again that this
widespread rumor, which some of the city newspapers have
been printing as If it were true, has no foundation except in
the imagination of the people who wish it were true.

BOYS! BOYS! HoW,s THIS?

The freshmen women at the State University are more intelh-
gent than freshmen men according to the results of the "frosh"
aptitude tests, released recently. The tests are given each year to
the group of entering students, and the womens average was 19
points on the whole test to 1876 for men. The highest individual
grade was 1872; the highest grade possible, $40.
In the single tests the class a IS a whole exce1ed in "opposnes, a
vocabulary test Women averaged 80 in this test and men averaged
go. Men outscored the women on competitions" with SO to the coeds'
81 points average. The possible score on this test was 80.
The men rated higher than the women in arithmetic. scoring
26 points to the womens % out of a possible so. Scoring of both
sexes was lowest in the "analogies" with only % points IS a COM
bined average. The biggest difference between the womens average
and that of the men was found in the artificial language test, in which
women rated a score of 81, and the men %.
The apttudes will be sent to a central committee where statistics
will be compiled as to the comparison between Montana and other
colleges throughout the country. The tests are distributed by the
American Council of Education at Washington, D {.

DRYS STILL
phillips County News)

IFHIHIpB OUuut NtW5T
An outstanding conclusion to be drawn from the recent
election Is that the great majority of the voters of this country
are still in favor of prohibition. The vets scored small gains
In the house OF representatives, eIecting a few men from districts
VIGOROUSLY moist in sympathy. They are correspondingly elated,
but still the control of both house and senate lies with the dry
side.
In New York, Illinois, New Jersey and Maryland, wet sym
pathizers were successful. but we believe that prohibition was
not the paramount issue at stake. Pennsylvania, overwhelm-
fngly wet, swept Clifford Pinchot into office and Mr.. Pinchot
represents the dry side in its most enthusiastic form. In our
estimation It proves concusively that the great majority Of
voters will not flock to a standard which has nothing more than
whisky to offer. Those who vote dry and drink wet are still
doing 1t and the drys are still dry.
Franklin D. Roosevelt, on the strength of an impressive
gubernatoral victory in New York state, is being doomed already
to carry the democratic banner for the presidency in 1892 Should
he have a moist slogan in his platform we believe he will be
rejected. Wet candidates, while making perceptable gains, will
continue for some years to need far more than merely that 20
succeed.

either party would not have done. Pardon us. but we told you SC.
