Airplanes forced down after cross
ing the Canadian international
boundary into Montana and at a
place where they cannot be inspected
by customs officers are not violating
the laws of this country, but are ex-
ercising the same rights offered to
ocean going steamers which seek a
safe harbOr during a storm, accord
ing to customs officials in Great Falls.
Being forced down may mean that
the airplane was unable to withstand
a storm, or engine trouble or fuel
shortage. If a plane lands for no par
ticular reason on q field not designated
as a port of entry, and if customs Of
ficials have not been notified, the pilot
is liable to a penalty of $500, according
to a federal enactment of May 20, 1926.
If the ship carries contraband another
situation arises. In this case the air.
plane can be confiscated and the pilot
arrested.
The pilot must give his reasons for
being forced down, the customs officials
explain. He must not remove articles
from his ship nor must passengers
leave the spot on which the plane
lands. After necessary repairs or when
conditions prevail so that the plane
can continue its flight, the pilot must
direct his ship to the nearest port OF
entry, where it will be met by federal
officials If the plane is unable to
continue the customs officials will in
spect it on the spot where it landed.
Planes crossing the international
boundary into the United States and
which do not stop for inspection by
the border patrol must land on an air
field designated by the federal govern
ment as the authorized port OF entry.
In this case the pilot must notify the
customs offices in advance, at which
port of entry he will land SO that the
officials can be on the field when the
ship arrives.
There are three ports Of entry in
Montana. The Great Falls municipal
airport, the Havre municipal airport
and the Scobey airport. These fields
were authorized by the federal govern
ment by an enactment of June 2, and
will continue to be ports of entry for
one year.
No violations of the regulations gov
erning airplanes have ever been report
ed in Montana. In one case a pilot
landed on an u~ndeSignated field. How
ever, he convinced the federal au-
thorities that he was not familiar with
the law and l%eniency was exercised by
the oauthorities.
Customs officials say, however, that
Montana with its wide unpopulated
spaces offers opportunities for planes
to land without being caught by federal
officers. This situation, they say, could
be remedied if county officers would
check on ships arriving in their re-
spective counties. According to the
aeronautical law Of the state, which
is a copy of the federal law, county
officials must inspect ships which land
or leave the county, in the opinion OF
the district inspector of the federal
aeronautic division who recently visit
ed Great Falls.

Bear grass, a universal favOrite
with tourists visiting Glacier national
park, will bloom again in great
abundance this summer, according
10 Superintendent J. Ross Eakin.
without a doubt, this is the finest
and most striking flower OF the park,
as il receives more attention than
any other. Whole mountainsides be-
come great masses of white from h
stately plumes, a sight never to be
forgotten when Once seen.
The plants bloom profusely only in
seasons following a wet spring, some
remain throughout the whole tourist
season. Blooming plants being a rarity
in 1929, it is especially pleasing to see
the many flowers this year.
The long, thin leaves are tough and
leathery, being used by Blackfeet
squaws to make baskets, hence giving
the plant the name of basket grass
and squaW grass. The name bear grass
is wholly false, for the plant is a lily,
not a grass, and bears apparently have
nothing to do with it. BY popular
choice, it was selected as the park
flower of Glacier in 1929.
Glacier park will offer an improved
and expanded free naturalist service
to its visitors this year in order to meet
the increased demands Of the public,
according to Superintendent Eakin.
Though youngest in point OF years, this
ranger-naturalist or nature guide serv-
ice is possibly the most popular move
sponsored by the government in the
national parks, whose aim is to place
at the disposal of everyone a COM
r1afa apd ra1ioh1a INSTRUMENTATION nf tha
parks story of it's wealth of wild life,
the romantic origin Of scenic features
as revealed by the records in the rocks,
the complex interviewer pattern of life
and it's environment, the wonders of
natural history to be found on every
hand. The enthusiastic response of
the public has far surpassed both the
most cherished hopes of the originators
of this phase of service and the ability
to completely meet it's demands though
every attempt has been made to do SO
satisfactorily.
Until the previous season, three tenn
pOrary %naturalists supplied Glacier
park visitors with information. A
permanent park naturalist and an adj
ditional temporary naturalist were then
added. Again, the increased service
was insufficient to meet an increasing
demand. Two more temporary natur-
alists have been added this summer,
bringing the staff up to seven men.
These men are all trained scientists
selected from a large number of ap-
plicants from the faculties of leading
universities throughout the country.
They have been chosen not only for
the wealth of knowledge of natural
history that they possess but also for
their ability to meet park visitors and
to interpret the park and it's wonders
to them in intelligent language.
In addition to the service rendered
at Many Glaciers hotel, Going-to-the-
Sun chalets and Lake Mcdonald hotel,
service will be extended this year to
take care of visitors at Two Medicine
and Avalanche creek Camp grounds.

STATE GIVEN
MACUIRE BUST
RELIC OF OLD-TIME MONTANA
THEATRICAL MANAGER AND
ACTOR RECEIVED
Popular Thespian Who Lived Here In
Eighties Had Worked With Most
Noted Stage Celebrities of His Day;
His Own Ability Widely Recognized.

The Montana historical library has
received a bust of John Mcguire,
probably the most noted theatrical
manager, actor and theater builder
the state has had, like Yorick, "a
fellow of infinite jest, of most ex-
cellent fancy" and of the most
popular residents Of Butte and the
state for a period of rs years, be-
ginning in the eighties. He died In
1907.
The bust, which Librarian David
Hilger was glad to receive, to be in
corpOrated among the historic relics OF
the library, was contributed by Mrs.
James N. Brown, of Butte whose mai
den name was Mcguire and who was
a niece of John Mcguire. The face
and head are somewhat idealized, yet
people who knew John Mcguire, even
in the latter part of his life, when he
had grown gray, will recognize it.
Before coming to Montana Mr.. Ma
guire played many roles as an actor,
most of them comedy parts, carried
his own company with him at times
and traversed the northwest, Nevada,
and California. He played with both
Barrett and Mccullough, the famous
~tragedians, and his histronic ability
was widely recognized.
At the time of his death, In 1907,
a glowing tribute was paid him by
an old friend, Judge Goodwin, editori-
al writer on the Salt Lake Tribune
for years, and we'll known in Montana,
where he worked many years ago. The
editorial opened with the statement
John the kindly, John the generous
John the genial, John the gifted"
The editorial told of his career as
actor, builder of theaters, theatrical
manager and the like, and eulogized
his many good traits, in n place
saying, "As a companion he would
have filled the day with delight for
Apollo, and such a night as he would
have made with Bacchus."
The editorial also noted his fight
against adversely in business, In which
he did not command the success he
had as an actor. and said that for &C
years he struggled between poverty and
af1uence, with the finest imaginable
spirit, and added: His upper cham
bers were filled with songs of birds
the shadow of the gaunt wolf Of want
under his window"
His last years were made comfortable
by the late Butte multimillionaire
James A. Murray, an old friend, but
Judge Goodwin expressed the view
that perhaps he enjoyed the struggle
better than relief from 1t and might
have lived longer In activity.

Carbon Alleged Fake"
The alleged acts for which Clark. a
nationally known certified public &C
countant, was arrested took place in
this city. According to the charges
filed by special agents, Clark falsified
the records in the case of the Massa-
chusetts firm which he was represent
ing by inserting a fake" carbon copy
letter into the official tax record OF the
Massachusetts, firm.
The fake" carbon copy was proved,
according to Mr.. Trey, only after long
continued search and identification
through experts of the Bureau of
Standards. The typewriter on which
the faxed" carbon copy was written,
allededly in the Office of Clark in Provi-
dence, has been obtained and is now in
safekeeping at the Treasury DEPART
ment here in preparation for the trial.
The carbon copy of the letter purported
to be from the Government to the tax
payer, acknowledging receipt of claim
for refund of taxes as of date in 1928.
The taxes had been paid in 1918, and

The psychological point of the play,
while obscured at times by the surface
theme of social ostracism, involves the
inescapable tyranny of q remorseful

The play was produced and directed
by Oscar B. Click, who also appeared In
several characterizations. The cast, an
amateur group, presented consistently
well-acted performance.
