BEST WISHES
Leaders Remember THEIR
AMERICAN FRIENDS AT
CHRISTMAS

NANKING, Dec. 23.-China, al
though threatened with war among
her own people and from a foreign
foe, renewed today her pledge to
the American people of "co-opera.
ton in the cause of peace on earth
and good will among men,.
Through The Associated Press,
Lin Sen, veteran of many years ex-
perience in Chinese politics, and
now acting president of China, to-
day extended to Americans on be-
half of the Chinese people, best
wishes for prosperity during the
coming year. Lin is acting presi-
dent in place of Chiank Kai Shek
who resigned and has left Marking
for retirement.
With the entire national govern
ment cabinet resigned since yes
terday, resulting in virtually com
plete responsibility for national af-
fairs resting upon him alone, the
veteran kuomintang chieftain said:
I'm behalf of the Chinese peo-
pie / extend to our friends in
America sincere wishes for a hap
Ply Christmas and a prosperous
New Year.
1--WE renew our pledge of o
operation in the cause of peace
on earth and good will among
men,"
A further greeting came from
DR.. Wellington Koo, until yester-
day foreign minister. DR.. Koo, who
issued an appeal to the United
States last Monday to maintain
her traditional policy of upholding
Chinese integrity and declared the
Japanese are harboring aims of
world empire, said today:
"The American people, with NAL
ice toward none and with good
will toward all, are destined to
play an increasingly important
role in the common task of bet
tering the world. My best wishes
are with them"

Richland Farmers
Planting Many Trees

Bozeman, Mont, Dec. 30.-Rich-
land county will go on with it's
bring nature back" program bv
continuing the annual planting of
shelterhe1ts. according to Theodore
Fosse county agent.
p'ch'ard county started it's first
sheltorbelt in 1916. Very slow prog
ress was made the first few years,
''t nv 1928 there were a total of
so. A real interest in beautifying
the farmstead appeared to have
se'zpd the county about that time
for in 1929 there were II shelter
belts started.
In 1880, a dry year, 10 shelter
belts were set out, according to
Fosse. This year, the second dry
ve9r in succession saw II
~shelterbelts started and the orr
ginal enthusiasm for Identification
survived the drouth to such an ex-
tent that for 1882 planting Fosse
has 26 separate orders.
Although figures are not avail
able for the actual number of trees
which will be introduced into the
county next spring, Fosse's report
shows that IS of the &c farmers
and ranchers will plant 8,475 trees
or an average of nearly All trees
per applicant. Provided the other
applicants maintain this average
Richland county will be the richer
by more than 10000 trees the
spring of 1882. Under normal con
ditions, rs percent of the ever
greens and about 95 percent of the
other trees will survive, in the
opinion Of Fosse.
