County Commissioners Petition
Congressman For Federal Aid

While in session the first of the week
the board of county commissioners
adopted resolution that petitions
Montana senators and congressman to
do what they can to induce the II. S.
congress to take some action to pro-
vide work that unemployment may be
reduced. The resolution says, in part.
Whereas, the present financial and
business depression having caused a
large number of laborers to be out
Of work and that the number of IN
employed is constantly increasing and
such unemployed are unable to sup
port themselves and their families.
And Whereas, Lincoln County
through its Board of County Commits
sioners has furnished aid and support
to the poor, exhausting the poor fund,
and have been forced to replenish said
fund with emergencies and have issued
emergency warrants in support of the
poor and dependent, and that said
commissioners have been forced to take
from the road fund levy and add to
the poor fund levy in order to provide
aid;
And Whereas, the condition is such
that by reason of many property own
ers being unable to pay their taxes,
the funds have been diminished and
not withstanding this, demands on the
county for the support of the poor have
increased in such proportion as to make
it impossible for the county to lend
aid to the deserving poor;
And Whereas, general plan of in
ternal improvements on the part of the
United States, supported by federal aid
and appropriation creating an employ
ment fund would give great relief to
the situation and furnish employment
for many thousands of unemployed,
such as building roads and bridges,
conservation of forests, and perform
ing other public works in construction
of buildings and otherwise;
Now Therefore, Be 1t Resolved, that
we, the undersigned said commissioners
earnestly recommend and urge upon
you such legislation as will create the
construction of internal improvements
for the purpose of giving aid and en-
ployment to the large increasing num-
Der of unemployed to the end that the
general situation over the United States
may be improved and that the indus
tries of the country may be opened tor
employment, thereby giving relief to

deliberate incendiary-Who have been
responsible for the 100000 acres Of
burned forest, the IA million dollars in
damage, and the sacrifice of n human
lives to which Governor Erickson re-
