OBELISk UNVEILED AT HIST

ROCKIES

sioners, VIM. J.. Mcbride, w. L.
Young, w. C. Adams, and former
commissioner R. E. Patch of Pop
lar, attended the dedication OF the
Theodore Roosevelt memorial mon
ument at the summit of the Rock
les last Sunday. The granite ODE
lisk stands directly in the Theo-
dore Roosevelt International high
way where it reaches its highest
altitude in following the Marias
pass owe the summit.
Extracts from press accounts of
the dedication say:
The monument honoring the
president who made forest ON
servation a national policy stands
on the line which separates the
Lewis and Clark forest from the
Flathead forest and at a point
where once Indians battled for
supremacy of great hunting ground.
Mai. Evan w. Kelly of Missoula,
regional forester, presided at the
ceremony. The speakers were Gov.
j. Z. Erickson, o. S. Warden,
chairman of the state highway
commission; Congressman Scott
Leavitt and E. A. Sherman, asso-
ciate forester of the United States,
representing Chief Forester Stuart.
Major Kelly read a message from
Gov. Clifford Pinchot of Pennsyl-
vania, who was the first head OF
the forest service as now consti-
tuted.
Summit, the apex of the Marias
pass, is IL miles west of Glacier
Park station and 164 miles from
Great Falls. Opening of this pass
to motor travel in the summer OF
1880 was as epochal as the coming
of the railroad to a pioneer coun-
try. The time when the automo-
bile could proceed over the Rock
les at this point had been the
dream and hope of northern Mon
tana communities for years. The
Theodore Roosevelt International
highway, extending from Portland,
Me-, to Portland, Ore, could not
be completed so long as the bar
rier on the southern boundary of
Glacier park remained. Over this
barrier automobiles had to be TAX
en- by rail.
The formal opening of Marias
pass to the automobile was on
Aug. %, last year. A celebration
of considerable scope was held
at which Miss Corrine Alsop,
grandniece of Theodore Roosevelt,
officiated at the laying of the
cornerstone of the memorial which
was dedicated today. The festival
was under the auspices of the Mon
tana section of the Roosevelt high

UNION PLANS FOR
DROUTH RELIEF

st. Paul:-Donations of whole
wheat flour to victims of the drouth
in the northwestern part of North
Dakota and eastern part of Mon
tana during the winter are plan

nounced today.
Equipment is being obtained for
the installation in mills of mach
merry to grind wheat into whole
wheat flour, Mr.. Thatcher said.
ct is planned~to make this flour
available to members of the Farm
ers Union in the drouth area in
North Dakota and Montana. We
plan to distribute approximately
10000 barrels of this flour. The
wheat will be purchased by the
Farmers Union Terminal associa-
ton in territory as near as poss-
ible to the drouth section where
milling facilities ara available, so
that the transportation costs viii
be reduced.
Employees of the Farmers I'm
ion business organizations in st.
Paul and the Northwest are plan
ming to raise $4,000 to be used in
relief work for the drouth victims,
increasing the original proposed
donation of $4,000. The Drouth
Relief committee also plans to
purchase 100 carloads of potatoes,
probably in the Red River valley,
and to have these potatoes avail
able to consign to the areas which
need them most. These would be
held in reserve for a time for
emergency location later in the
year.
more than five carloads of
clothing have been received by the
drouth committee from residents
of the Twin Cities and Wisconsin
and Minnesota. This clothing is
all being sent to Montana, as North
Dakota is making plans to care
for it's own people, as the eastern
part of that state had somewhat
crops than Montana and
he state is better able to care
or its W people.

 Pre-emptive bids of four of a suit are made primarily to shut out the opponents. They should be made only on hands containing long suit and little or no defen- sive strength.
 They indicate to partner that with the suit you name as trump you will take eight tricks--in other words, you are over-bidding your hand two tricks. If partner hap pens to hold two tricks, you may be successful in making your con tract.
 Under the writer's system, 1t is impossible to make pre-emptive bid of three and they rarely, if ever accomplish their purpose. If you are going to pre-empt. do so high enough to keep the opponents from arriving at their best declaration.
 There are a few hands where pre-emptive bids of four in minor will work out well, but generally the best minor pre-emptive bid is an original bid of five. You are only endeavoring to accomplish one thing with a pre-emptive bid, and that is to stop the opponents from bidding.
 Supporting PreEinptive Bids As partner has told you that he is overlooking his hand two tricks and has no side strength. do not support his pre-emptive bid even though you hold quick tricks, un- less you hold sufficient number of quick tricks to assure q slam. The main point to remember in pre- emptive bids is that if the op- ponents should overcall partner 5 original suit bid of four and your hand contains only one to two quick tricks, you can make a good sacrifice bid by supporting partner. With partner advertising no defen- sive strength and you with very little, undoubtedly the opponents have game.
 When you support partners bid, holding one trick, you can expect l to go down only two tricks, and in 1 the majority of cases for a very good sacrifice. If you hold two tricks, partner should be down only one.
 Pre-emptive bids can also be made after the bidding is opened c. g. partner bids one heart. oppo- nents pass, and you bid three or four spades. In either case, this would be purely a pre-emptive bid informing partner that your hand was worthless for anything but spades. There are very few hands, however, where this will prove sue cessful as generally the only one It shuts out from bidding is partner
 Again. supposing that opponents pened with one heart. If you bid three or four spades, this would be two or three more than necessary and would in no way be a forcing bid. Partner would immediately take 1t for a pre-emptive bid in which you were announcing that you had nothing but spades. This type of bid Is used more frequently than the overcall of partners suit with a pre-empt.

JAPAN TRIBUTES TO LINDBERCHS
 CLOSE TONIGHT
Six-Day Program of Re- captions and Banquets Flying Couple to Visit American Ambassador
BY MILES W. VAUGHN limited Press Staff COrreSDOndcnt.

bI MILILD ". thSHhEF United Press Staff Correspondent.
 Tokio. Aug 31.-UP)--Japan's official tribute to Col and Mrs Charles A. Lindbergh. a six-day program of receptions and ban quests, ends tonight with a dim ner in their honor by Premier Re- jiro WakatZuki.
 Tomorrow the famous family flying team that made the first aerial vacation trip from United States to Japan will be free to do as they please. The Lindberghs decided that the first thing they would do would be to visit the villa of the United States Ambassador w. Cameron Forbes at Karui- Zawa.
 This morning Colonel Lindbergh addressed military and civilian avi- ators. This afternoon he had his photograph taken as the model for a bronze statue. Colonel and Mrs Lind bergh were guests at a luncheon given by the Japan Air Transport company.
 Yesterday the commoners of Tokio paid formal honors to their distinguished visitors. A great crowd of Hibiya park cheered the hndberghs and heard the colonel predict that eventually air travel between the United States and Ja- pan would be common. The affair was a noisy, gaudy demonstration on the part of the Tokio populace and the way in which the Lind berghs entered the spirit of the oc- caslon won them great recep- tion.
 Mayor Nagata, wearing silk hat, white trousers and morning coat and beaming his official pleasure at escorting the Lindberghs to the public gathering, called for the visitors after a reception given by the American association. The Lindberghs, the mayor and Am bassador Forbes, entered motor car banked with flowers and deco rated with flags and started for Hibiya park with an escort of Boy Scouts, brass bands, and mo- torcycle police.
 The police had a difficult time clearing the way through immense crowds and progress was slow. A peasant girl blind in one eye and carrying one baby on her back and another in her arms. walked alongside the car throughout the parade. Mrs Lindbergh smiled at her often.
 At the park. the stadium was banked with children waving Jap anese and American flags and shouting their greeting. Bands played the American and Japan ese anthems, the mayor made a speech and Mrs Lindbergh received flowers.
 Col and Mrs Lindbergh enjoyed the affair thoroughly. As Lind bergh prepared to respond to the mayors adress, scores of camera men and sound news photograph CTS rushed toward the platform with their cameras and dragging wires, cables and equipment through the crowd. Lindbergh stood patient and smiling until the last photographer "shot" him from all angles.
 Lindbergh told the United Press he expected to decide to-day on a l route he and his wife will follow to China. He had not decided fl they would visit the Philippines. No importance should be at- tached to my enquiries regarding ] routes across Siberia" he said.
