CHILDREN DEPRIVED OF SCHOOLING

The efficiency of the county as a unit Of local govern
ment is being challenged by numerous students of gov
ernmental affairs. Mr.. Howard P. Jones, public relations
secretary of the National Municipal League, directs at
tention to the matter in connection with the breakdown
of the public school. system in certain states.
Pointing out that zoo, 900 children of school age in
Alabama this winter are being deprived Of an education
because rs counties had no money and were forced to
close the schools, Mr.. Jones said:
'This does not mean that there is not enough
money in Alabama to keep the schools open. The
governmental areas are out of focus. Some have
too much money, some not enough. We are sacri-
ficng these school Children on the altar of an ar
chaic system of local government"
Perhaps the county system of government is archaic.
But the responsibility for closing the public schools in
Alabama and elsewhere cannot be shifted to the form Of
local government. The responsibility rests with the
state legislature for its failure to declare that the pro-
vision of a public school system shall be compulsory
on the authorities in every community, that compulsory
school attendance shall be required of every child of
school age throughout the state, and that raising enough
money by taxation or otherwise to finance the public
school system shall be mandatory for every unit of local
government.
The will to provide every child with a public school
education would overcome the difficulties connected with
archaic units Of government.

THE
HAVE FALLEN
Butte Writer Urges Adop-
ton of Limited In
come Plan.
By JUD W. McCRAW.

TT is quite generally believed that
4 mankind learns by experience. If
that were not true, we would empty
our historical libraries, stop the study
of recorded history in our schools
and colleges, and cease to learn from
volumes grown musty with age.
All history is replete with the
story of the distribution of wealth.
Inch by inch, the masses contest
the premises of the mighty for the
right to live in peace and comfort.
Slowly and surely, the mighty gain
the ~ascendancy and force the masses
to revolt. This same game is played
over and over again and it consti-
tutes the sum and substance of his
tory. Can it be true that the United
States will solve this riddle of the
ages? We have all the advantages,
universal learning, unlimited re-
sources, the highest degree of tech
meal skill the world has ever known,
and what is more, a government
builded on common consent, W.
which hovers the doctrine of Chris
tianity.
But when imposters creep into the
house of God" and our Patriots
become the house of opology, for
those who would destroy, and all our
angels fall in servility, and preach
the plausibility of the devil, while
the millions of the mighty multiply,
and usury, that great sin condemned
by "God" and all the martyrs of
human experience, is universally ac-
cepted, it seems that if any better
ment is to come, by way of reform,
it will surely have to come from the
meek and lowly, driven to slaughter
and desperation.
When ! hear in the house Of God
an angry voice d~ecrying the sin of
the rich and mighty, when | hear in
the air the voice of Patriots, sound
ing the alarm; when | see in the
counting houses, repentance of their
sins; when l see hypocrisy dethroned
and cowardice defeated by courage
then will / know some one is preach

ers can get adequate relief is
through united action. We, the
workers and farmers of the state of
Montana, can do the same.
"The Unemployed Councils, the
United Farmers Leagues, and other
workers and farmers organizations,
have decided to petition the state
Legislature for the following pro-
posed demands:
81. State unemployment insur-
ance to be in effect until Congress
passes the national unemployed in
bill.
20. Fifty dollars cash winter re-
lief for each unemployed.
"3. No evictions of unemployed
workers for non-payment of rent.
"a. Immediate stopping of the
seizure of farmers crops, cattle and
chattels; a two~year moratorium for
all farm debts of the impoverished
farmers; free government seed to
all small farmers.
"The money for the above demands
to be raised by special tax to be
levied on all large industries in the

holders and thus relieve them from the alleged necessity
of joining the breadlines composed of jobless working

CALL FOR A
HUNGER MARCH
Call Made to Workers and
Farmers of Montana by
State Committee.

"To the workers and farmers of
the state Of Montana:
america is entering the fourth
year of the general crisis of CAPT
talism, with 100000 workers job
less and millions Of workers working
part time at starvation wages.
Montana finds itself in the same
position as the rest of the United
States. Close to 100000 Montana
workers find themselves on the
streets; thousands Of workers are
losing their homes. Montana's larg-
est city, Butte, has thousands of
wandering jobless who are forced in
to company boarding houses
(Which reminds us of the bull pens
Of the early days.. The food given
to these workers is unfit to eat.
The city which once boosted of "the
richest hill on earth" reminds US
now Of a ghost camp like Granite,
Montana. Butte today is a city
Of decay.
''The rest Of the industrial centers
are the same. Anaconda, which once
boosted of the largest smokestack
in the world, now talks Of the coolest
s~mokestack in the world. Great
Falls is a city living on relief; its
largest industrial projects, the wire
mill and smelter, employing but few
men. The coal mines at Roundup,
Washoe and Bear Greek run on
the Hoover stagger system, and Red
Lodge is completely shut down. The
railroad centers, Deer Lodge, Havre
and Miles City, work with skeleton
crews.
"The farmers no longer control
their crops or farms. The crops are
mortgaged and the land goes to the
state and insurance companies for
taxes. Hundreds of farmers and
their jobless families are driven into
the cities to swell the ~breadlines of
the jobless.
"Montana's relief is in the hands
of private charities or distributed by
Chamber Of Commerce organizations
which are controlled by the A. C. M,
Co. They hand out poor quality food
in insufficient amounts and discrim-
mate against those who are dis
satisfied. Relief for single men is
handled by religious organizations
such as the Salvation Army, which
uses most of its relief funds for
graft and give the workers food
that is donated to them by the mer-
chants and warehouses, which IAN
not be disposed of on the market.
1.-THE A. c. M. has relieved the
county commissioners and the local
officials Of the job of distributing
the relief. There is no government
controlled relief. The Reconstruc-
ton Finance Corporation relief
amounts to nothing. Silver Bow
county received $4,000 from the
R. F. C. This gives about SO to each
unemployed person to live through
the winter. This is a good example
of government relief, and it is con-
trolled by the A. G.. Uncontrolled
Chamber Of Commerce.
"All the promises and talk about
the return of prosperity, about the
improvement of the conditions, have
proven to be false. 1t is admitted
by some of the most conservative
economists that should there be a
return of prosperity (and all signs
point to a w%orsening of the condi-
t%ions), a very small number Of the
present 17,000,000 unemployed will
find their way back to industry.
"The political machine of this
state is controlled by the A. G. M,
which Uses it for its own benefit.
The only way we workers and farm

WORKERS MUST TIGHTEN THEIR BELTS

The glimmer of hope held out to the workers a few
weeks ago that the turning point in the depression had
been reached and that business recovery with increased
employment was at hand turns out to have been a phan-
tom of business prognosticators. Standard Statistics
Company, reliable for interpretations of economic condi-
tons based on facts, says:
Expectations of near-term business recovery,
which appeared good two months ago, are distinctly
less bright at present. Activity is experiencing more
than the full seasonal recession Recovery in in
dustry and trade as a whole seems rather definitely
postponed until next spring -"
From the orthodox business mems viewpoint this means
that the millions of unemployed and their families must
continue to live on charity rations during the winter, and
that both full time and part time employed workers will
have to skimp along on their present indecently-low
earnings.

 Miss Marlow was beaten by Jap anese reservist troops while in specting the ruins of her school which had been destroyed by an artillery attack on Chinese troops formerly defending the district. She was struck in the face and on the body with sticks

She was attached to the Shun Tax girls school which is affiliated with the Southern Baptist Mission. The in cident aroused the feelings of Am erican residents of the Information al Settlement.
 There was constant danger of re- sumption of fighting on a large scale unless a truce is arranged within a short time. The nego- tiatio14s for a truce continued without any indication of success.
 Japanese patrols in the Chapel district have attempted to keep out thousands of curious who thronged into the area.
