MONTANA Wins
BARLEY CROWN
TAKES TWO FIRST PLACES IN
WHITE WHEAT CLASS; ALSO
MANY OTHER AWARDS

Montana, which has consistently
Won the worlds barley champion
ships in the International Grain
and Hay shows of the preceding
six years, repeated its performance
at the opening of the 1882 show,
not only winning the champion
ship but the reserve championship
as well.
AS usual the honors went to a
Ravalli county farmer, although
not to one who had previously ex-
%perienced that distinction. This
years barley crown rests upon the
head of Thomas e. Smith of Cor
wallis. son of C. Edison Smith, for
mer world wheat king and winner
of last years barley championship.
Smiths sample of six-rowed bar
ley won first prize for region one,
comprising the northwestern tier
of states and Canada, and then was
adjudged champion over the samp-
lie shown by George Holman of
Tiff, Colo, which won first prize
for growers other than in region
one.
First places in all of the four
barley classes were won by Mon
tana exhibitors.
Herman Treble, Canada's one
man agricultural college, won for
the third consecutive year the tit
lie of wheat king of America.
Thomas E. Smith of Darby,
Mont, took the ser champion
ship.
First places were annexed by
Montana in judging in the two
white wheat classes, but with only
a few samples entered in hard red
spring, the state was a week con-
tender in that class.
Ravalli county exhibitors again
scored in the white wheat classes.
The first award for white spring
went to A. NJ. Riewoldt. Victor,
while I. E. Smith, Darby, took
first in the white winter class.
The battle for the crown of
wheat king has been a Trelle-Smith
duel for several years. C. Edison
Smith held the honors in 1927 and
1928, with Trelle reserve champ
ion. In 1929 Joseph H. B. Smith of
Wolf Lake, Alberta. usurped the
throne while Trelle took it over
in 1880 and has retained it since.
Montana won third place in the
western class of alfalfa seed on
a sample entered by F. A. Hal
version, Lonepine, Sanders County.
c. Edison Smiths sample of early
oats took first place in the region
of competition but did not place
in the championship race.
John P. Campbell of Big Tim
ben, won all three places in car
loads of feeder yearlings.

the impeachment of President Hoo

&rayed the country on war debts.
The resolution charged the pres

uphold the law passed by the 72nd
congress forbidding cancellation in
whole or in part of the war debts
due to the United States from for

and has endeavored to nullify the
contracts existing between the
United States. and it's foreign

1t was tabled on motion of the

Pennsylvania Republicans in
house today demanded the resig-
nation of Representative McFad-
den as secretary of their delega-
ton as a result of his Impeachment
resolution directed at President
Hoover.
The Pennsylvania, long a foe
of the administration, made his
move in the house of representa-
tives.
Walking to the we'll of the house,
in front of the speakers chair, he
asked for recognition and present
ed a resolution saying that since
President Hoover has "usurped the
powers of congress" he should be
impeached.
After McFadden had repeatedly
quarreIed with the administration
officials and attacked the presi-

age privileges by his fellow party
members. more than a year ago.
He especially opposed the mora
forum.
Today, he told the house the
"usurpation" by the president to
which he referred was in proclaim
ing the moratorium. He commended
that action led to the present sit
uation involving the United States
and its foreign debtors.
The house listened silently as
the resolution charging President
Hoover with violating the laws
and constitution of the United
States and with high crimes and
misdemeanors" was read by the
clerk.

PREMIER PROTESTS ACTION
RESIGNS; STRUGGLE TO

Great Britain Pays
95 Million In Gold
GERMANY JUMPS AT CHANCE
TO SHAKE LOOSE FROM
ORIGINAL TREATY

PARIS, Dec. 15.-Camille Chau-
temps, minister of the interior in
Premier Herriot's cabinet, told
President LeBrun this evening
that he would try to form a new
government.
He is a radical, like M. Herriot-
In 1880 he was premier for four
days, succeeding Andre Tardieu-
His resignation resulted from the
failure to receive a vote of conf
dence in the chamber of deputies
of his policies with regard to the
naval conference then in progress
in London.
1t was regarded as certain that
he would exert every effort to in
duce NJ Herriot to take a place
in his cabinet, probably as foreign
minister.
Six Pay, Five Fail
Nearly one hundred million dol
lars of wal debt installments were
marked paid in Washington. Six
nations honored their obligations
while five others defaulted.
In Paris, Premier Herriot, over
thrown because of his desperate
attempt to persuade parliment to
pay the 500 1000, 900 due the United
States, refused to form a new min
istry. With the internal crisis, PASS
ing of the payment day went al
most u%nobserved there.
When London, with no ceremony,
announced the transfer OF S95, $780,
900 in gold to American credit, the
populace responded with patriotic
thrill to flaring headlines that
Britain Pays.
Berlin reacted to the French de-
fault with newspaper declarations
that France had broken the san
City of treaties and in one instance
that Germany was no longer moral
ly bound to comply with the Yer
sailles treaty.
Lithuania paid it's debt Install
ment to the treasury by check
drawn on a Washington bank. The
payments of Italy, Czechoslovakia,
Finland and Latvia, like Britian's.
were expected at the Federal Re
serve bank of New York.
Belgium, Poland, Hungary and
Estonia joined France in default.
Greece already has fallen behind
in her payments.

OSCAR A~BRAHAMSON DIES

Word was received early Mon
day morning by Mrs. Oscar Abra-
hanson that her husband had pass
ed away suddenly at Galen, where
he had been a patient for more
than a year. The treatment there
had apparently been so beneficial
that he was allowed to leave the
sanitarium for a few weeks. When
he visited Wolf Point he looked
well on the road to recovery.
Funeral services Eel held at
Valley City, N. Oak. which was
his birthplace and is where his
relatives and those of Mrs. Abra-
hanson reside. Mrs. Abrahamson
has the sympathy of many friends
here in this time of sorrow.

says the middle class English

TAKES UP BILL
ON ALLOTMENT
TENTATIVE DRAFT OFFERED
INCLUDES WHEAT, COT
TON, TOBACCO, HOGS
FARM ORGANIZATION MEN
DIFFER ON COMPULSORY
POINT

Washington, Dec. 13.-An emer-
gency farm plan, designed to boost
1888 farm incomes through inmed-
late application of the domestic al
lotment principle to four great
staple commodities was submitted
to the house agriculture commit
tee Tuesday by it's Democratic
chairman, Representative Jones OF
Texas.
1t was labelled a tentative
draft for the committees consld-
Grafton and has not yet been in
troduced. But since Jones has been
in frequent conference with farm
experts and advisors of President
elect Roosevelt, the bill generally
was received as a party measure.
1t applies to wheat, cotton, to-
bacco and hogs.
ct is just a suggestion" Jones
said. at is intended as a hot IN
the arm pending more permanent
adjustment of such burdens as the
farm mortgage situation, trade bar
riers and taxes"
Leaders Disagree
Jones had time only to briefly
outline his bill to the committee
Tuesday and it will get back to
work on it Wednesday. Meanwhile,
in a downtown hotel, representa-
tives of some Is national farm
and commodity organizations were
endeavoring to resolve differences
and unity behind relief plans.
AS this meeting wore on, how
ever, disagreement developed that
threatened to disrupt Democratic
hopes for unified farm organlgza-
ton support Of their plans. 1t cen
tered on the desire of some to make
the domestic allotment plan com
pulsory instead OF voluntary.
For the year 1888, the Jones
draft would entitle producers OF
wheat, cotton tobacco and hogs
to adjustment certificates for MS
percentage of what the secretary
of agriculture estimates domestic
consumption will be. The certlfl-
Gates would be valued on a basis
of AZ cents a bushel for wheat, D
cents a pound for cotton, 4 cents
a Mound for tobacco and 2 cents a
pound for hogs.
Production To Be Cut
The fund to redeem the certlfl-
Gates would be raised through a
tax of these amounts on the flrst
domestic processing.
Operation of the plan IN 1854
would depend upon a presidential
proclamation that it was necessary
to correct inequalities IN com
modify prices. Producers OF the
commodities so proclaimed would
have the right to sign contracts
with the secretary OF agriculture
again emitting them to the ad-
justment certificates.
For his part, the producer woulu
have to agree not to exceed a pro-
duction quota fixed by the secre-
tary on the basis of his average
or sales during an mined
lately preceding period. Also ne
would have to agree to reduce his
production quota upon the secre
tary's request as much as ~ per
cent.
The bill would repeal the farm
boards sterilization powers.

CLEVER PERFORMER
ON MOUND, IN FIELD
Fine Complete Hurler
Halted by Giants-Cubs
Skid in Two Games.
BY HUGH S. FULLERTON, JR.,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

"vEN though the Cubs and the
- Pirates are keeping the National
League pennant race steamed up
so that they almost monopolize
the fans attention, there still is time
10 consider the case of Charles Fred
Red" Lucas of Cincinnati.
In his seventh season with the Reds,
Lucas appears to have reverted to the
days when a pitcher was expected to
play almost as often as an outfielder
and there was no big corps of relief box
men waiting around ready to go in the
minute he showed signs of faltering.
The husky redhead, who has fallen
below the 500 mark in games won and
lost only once in his six seasons with a
usually weak club, may repeat in that
respect again this year, but he seemed
certain to lead them all in the matter
Of finishing what he starts.
Lucas has started % games so far
and he has been in there at the end cf
27 of them. He ran up a string of 18
complete games in row, failed twice
In short time in mid-July and since
then has made a new string Of eight.
Unfortunately for his record, he has
won only 13 games and lost Is.
Lucas took it on the chin again yes
terday, although he hurled fairly good
game against the Giants. He had a
5-3 margin in the seventh inning, then
ran into a home-run assault that
brought three runs and cost him the
decision.
The woes that usually greet the lead
ing clubs Of the West when they start
their final trip Of the season turned up
on schedule time. Chicago's league
leading Cubs ran into grief in Boston
and took a double defeat from the
Braves, IL to and 2 to 0.
The Pirates clipped one game OF
Chicago's lead by splitting a two-ply
program with Brooklyn. They had no
trouble winning their eleventh straight
game, to 3, as they drove Van Mungo
to cover in the first inning of the
opener. Freddy Heimach's port-side
hurting proved bit too much in the
nightcap and Brooklyn won, to 2. Hei
mach gave only seven hits.
Dizzy Dean, who had won his last
four games for st. Louis, also felt the
effects of going on the road and lost a
6-to-5 encounter to the Phillies.
There were no American League
games scheduled.
