COMMUNIST MOVEMENT in STATE BLAMED

After considerable discussion in which it was maintained
that an organized effort existed on the part Of Communist to
destroy the financial system of the United States, the senate
committee of the whole today recommended for passage S. B.
40, prohibiting the wilful and malicious uttering or publishing
of false statements against any bank or trust company. Sen
ator Schnitzler of Roosevelt, chairman of the committee on
banks and banking which introduced the bill, cited instances
where banks in good condition had failed because of runs
started by malicious JUNIORS. He said that the law was now in

VETERANS BONUS
BILL PASSES HOUSE
SENATE Vote TODAY
Will Release Money for War
Veterans; Passage Ger
tain Today

The Veterans loan bill ! which
has been up for consideration in
Washington for some time, and
which has been so resOlutely
fought by Secretary Mellon, and
which was believed by many
would be the same attitude by
President Hoover, has passed
both houses with such huge ma
j~orities that the president can
not veto same, ever if he wish
to do 80.
The bill came up for final vote ir
the House on Monday with a vote OF
1863 to 80 and on Tuesday it was tran.
mitted to the Senate where a regular
stampede swept through that very
orderly gathering as they wished t.
vote o nthe measure at once, but this
was blocked by the rules, but notice
was given at once that the measure
would be taken up on Wednesday.
Administration leaders pleaded il
vain for orderly consideration of thu
loan bill to which Secretary Mellor
was opposed, but the senate made j
quite plain that hearings on the bill
would be sharply curtailed.
Wednesday the senate committee
approved the Soldiers loan bill by l;
to 3 in favor of the present HOUSE
bill and rejected the substitute mea
sure referred to them. Five Republi
cans and all of the democrats on th'
committee voted in favor Of the HOUSE
bill as passed Monday.
The Senate will vote on the bill
today if possible.

effect in SO states and it was
up to this Legislature to pro-
vide means of protecting banks
from such tactics. Inasmuch
as banks were semi-public or
CARNATIONS, he declared, the
law would protect the deposits of
persons patroni2ing the banks and
was not distinctly legislation for the
benefit of the banks. He stated there
was a certain newspaper in the state
which attempted to bring about lack
of confidence in all banks by its meth
cd of handling news and rumors.
Senator Corwin of Saltwater con-
tended that there was urgent neeu of
this legislation. 1t was not class leg
islation, he said, but in the interest
of the general public.
"a society organized in a foreign
country" he declared, " is spreading
it's poison propaganda throughout the
land. 1t is a real menace and it is not
wise to close our eyes to Impending
dangers. Many bank failures have
been brought about by persons with
imaginary grievances. Here is an op-
portunity to afford protection we are
in need of"

MANY BILLS ARE PASSED BY STATE LEGISLATURE
Divorce Bill and Woman Jury
Bill Both Get the
Axe

The Montana legislature is busy
grinding out bills, but there is an end
to these bills at last, as the period has
been reached when no more new laws
can be touched upon, as the represen-
tatives and senators will have enough
10 take car of as it is.
Many Bills Enacted
Many bills have been enacted into
laws, and others have been killed.
Some of those killed included that of
permitting women to serve on %juries;
raising salaries of county attorneys
in seventh class counties; validating
tax sales; providing for tax sold out
side Of Montana; consolidation of
counties, and n which has caused a
great deal of debate being the liberal
ization of the present Montana Di-
vorce laws. They also killed the hy-
dro-electric tax bill which would have
meant a considerable revenue to this
state, but the majority of the legis-
lators from the western part of Mon
n could not see it that way, claim
ing that less than one per cent of our
water power has been utilized at this
time, and rather than driving indus
tries out Of the state they would
make it easy for them to enter this
state and develop this vast water pow
err that belongs to the people of Mon
tana.
Bills Passed
Amongst important bills passed by
both the house and the senate during
the past few days we find the follow
ing: establishing free public libraries
relating to validating of and record
ing Of instruments; relating to crime
of receiving stolen property; regula-
ting dairy manufacturers-there will
be many more bills passed by the end
of this week.
One taxation bill which has been
recommended to be killed has with
stood the most determined opposition

 Naturally, the declarer has a right to assume that the eight is the

 fore, since the 9-10-J-K-A are all

 son as follows: If the queen of dia- monds can be gotten out of the way
 immediately, then dummy's 10 can
 be used as an entry card to come
 through the queen of clubs. The l best way of accomplishing this re- suit is to lead the jack of diamonds
 at once, thereby forcing the queen to win the trick or to seek solace in the grave.
 A heart return by South Is then

 First, the play of the eight of

 more clubs. Second, the double of

This Is the 18th of series of 20 prearranged bridge hands played by Cleveland experts to test their skill in the play of difficult hands
 The bidding was directed as fol- lows in order to give all contestants the same opportunity in making the proper deductions:
 First round: South, one no trump; West, two clubs; North, pass; East, pass.
 Second round: South two hearts; West, three clubs; North, three hearts; East, pass.
 Third round: South, pass; West, four clubs; North, pass; East, pass.
 Fourth round: South, double; Vest, North and East, pass.
 In order to insure equalization of opportunities, North was directed taking this trick with the king and to open the seven of hearts, South returning the ace. West was com- pelled to trump the ace of hearts with the two of clubs, and from then on each player was given a free hand.
