COLGATE HAS
SLIGHT EDGE
BY JACK CUDDY

NEW YORK, Nov. 22.-Colgate's
mighty football machine should be
"a to favorite to crush Brown at
Providence Thursday in their strug
gle for the Eastern championship
if statistics have any significance.
Both teams are unbeaten and un-
tied, but the Bruins have tottered
on the brink of defeat at least
twice. Moreover Colgate boasts the
best record Of any college team in
the country, having rolled up 243
points in eight games without hav-
ing point tailed against it..
Brown has totalled 81 points in
seven games while opposing teams
have scored 81.
The two elevens are not as un-
evenly matched however, as these
figures would indicate, because Col
gates eight opponents did not av-
erage up to the strength of Browns
seven, which included Yale, Har-
ward, Holy Cross and Columbia.
-Four of Colgate's opponents were
fair teams, however-New York
university, Lafayette, Penn State
and Syracuse.
Syracuse held Columbia to a
sccreless tie Saturday on MUDDY
field. which probably served as an
equal handicap for both elevens
Brown managed to beat Columbie
To, after being outplayed by the
Lions in every department of the
game.
Brown has gained many sup
porters because it came from be-
hind to beat Holy Cross and Co.
lumbia with long marches wher
the game was nearly finished.
In Co1gate's last five games the
Maroons have made 35 first down:
to their opponents 10, gained 1344
yards by rushing to their oppon-
ents 203, and advanced 439 yards
! by forward passes to the opposi'
tion's 148.
Brown, in it's last four games
has made only A first downs while
opposing elevens made al. The
| Bruins covered GAO yards by rush
ing against 456 for their enemies
but they gained only 181 yards or
forward passes, while rivals COW
cred 1913.
These figures only indicate that
Colgate is far stronger both or
land and in the air. But the Brown
/ Bears have the uncanny ability o.
punching their yardage into lonG
marches of 60, 10 and 30 yards fol
touchdowns.

years clubs. The waiver price was
reduced to ST $50. 1t formerly was
$4,000

COMMENT ON
SPORT WORLD
BY HENRY McLEMORE
United Press Staff Correspondent


NEW YORK, Nov. 22.-There is
no mere need for doubt or debate
on the question, who hit Billy Pat
terson, and did Steve Brodie actu-
ally jump from Brooklyn bridge.
These decisions were ratified of
as quickly as a Soviet divorce as
compared to the laborious sweating
and wrangling that took place yes
terday before the Amateur Athletic
union, sitting in. national session,
handed down its now historic rul-
ing that Hudson county, New Jer-
sey. should not be taken from the
Metropolitan association and given
to the New Jersey association.
Unquestionably, this age in sports
will be marked, by our children and
cur children's children, yea down
to the fourth generation not as the
year America won the Olympic
games, not as the year Sharkey
whipped Schmeling by leading with
his chin, not as the year the Yanks
took four in a row from the Cubs
but as the year Of the Hudson
county settlement.
The Hudson county controversy
arose midway in the afternoon ses-
sion. The man who proposed that
Hudson county be taken from the
METROPOLITAN association later adj
mitted he expected the matter *
be settled in five minutes or so
Obviously he is a new member anc
doesn't know his A. A. u meetings
For it was two hours later, afte'
enough oratory to settle the fats
of all the nations, that the body
finally made its decision The fac

Michigan May
Come To Coast

CHICAGO. Nov. %. W.P)-Fol-
lowers of Big Ten football looked
forward today to a meeting Of the
conference faculty board here
December 3 and some predicted
the board might grant Michigan
permission to play in the New
Years Tournament Of Roses games
at Pasadena, Calf, if invited to
90 SO.
Michigan was undefeated and
united this year to win the con-
ference championship. There have
been rumors the team would be
invited to play on the coast, but
there is a Big Ten rule that teams
of the conference can not play post
season games.
Recently there has been talk of
the conference amending this rule.
Athletic Director Fielding Yost
Of Michigan has refused to COM
ment on possibility of his team
playing on the coast. In former
years he always said no" 1t has
! been noticed also that the Mich
( igan players have continued in
training even though the season is
over.

ONE TAX THAT STAYS PUT.

The following article defining various tax schemes is
going the rounds of the American press:
SALES TAXA tax that is paid by the ultimate con-
sumner.
GASOLINE TAXA tax that is paid by the public.
INCOME TAXA tax that is passed on to the Ameri-
can people.
REALTY TAX tax that is paid by tenants who live
in the house owned by the man who goes through the
form of sending a check to the government.
CORPORATION TAXA tax that is paid by people
who ride in subways, cook by gas, pick up the telephone
or buy a newspaper.
CUSTOMS ~DUTIES-Taxes paid by the people who
buy the goods on which the duties are levied.
TAXING THE PLUTOCRATS-Dont kid yourself.
The author evidently thinks that the general public is
the goat which must bear the burden of all taxes. In
the main he is probably correct. But it is noteworthy
that he doesn't cite the inheritance tax. That, admit

THE RISING COST OF GOVERNMENT.

For months the people of the United States have been
bombarded with propaganda regarding the alleged men
ace of the increasing cost of Government.
We have been told that the interest of the taxpayers
demand that appropriations for the administration of
Government institutions be drastically reduced. In many
instances the propaganda comes from anti-labor employ
es whose main contribution to our social life consists in
endeavoring to bring about wholesale d%ebasement of the
living standards OF the working people by drastic wage
cuts.
People who are caught by this propaganda overlook
the fact that no small part of the increased cost of Gov
eminent comes from the necessity of protecting the mass
es of the people from the greed of the business groups,
who are loudest in the taX-reducion demand.
A striking Instance of this is found in a recent event
in the District of Columbia.
A man and his wife were killed in their home by car
bon monoxide gas escaping from a hot-water heater with
out a flue outlet into the chimney.
The corOnors inquest revealed that the plumbing con-
tractor had failed to make an opening from the chimney
crock into the flue lining. This neglect provided no es-
cape for the gas, which backed up into the room and
killed the couple.
1t was also revealed that a number of houses in which
the plumbing was installed by the same contractor had
the same flue defect. The only reason the occupants
Of all of these houses were not killed was the fact that
the others did not use gas heaters. The plumbing in
spector testified that a large number of gas heating
boilers had been installed in residences without any in
SpechOn "Other than the casual visual inspection which
may be given by the building inspectors" He said his
inspectors had not required mechanics to remove flue
pipes to examine %chimneys. 1t was assumed that plumb
ing contractors knew their business and made proper flue
outlets.
AS a result of the facts revealed at the coroner's in
quest the District Commissioners, in order to prevent fur
Their fatal accidents caused by faulty gas pipe connec-
tons on heaters, issued an order providing that flue
pipes from gas water heaters shall not be connected I'M
til the flue has been inspected and approved by an in
spector of the office of the Inspector Of plumbing.
The plumbing Inspector said that the administration
of the new rule would require the employment of adj
ditional inspectors.
The employment Of the additional inspectors will in
crease the cost of government in the District of Colum-
bia.
The increase has been brought about by the necessity
Montana labor news., 1932-05-12

of having representatives of the people survey the work
of building contractors in order that occupants of build
ings shall not be killed by the failure of contractors to
properly install plumbing appliances.
An honest survey would reveal that a considerable
portion of the increase in the cost of government has been
made necessary by tragedies similar to the one which
caused the Commissioners of the District of Columbia
to increase the number of its plumbing inspectors.
1t is needless to add that the people will insist that
the social welfare and the public welfare activities Of
Federal, State and municipal governments shall not be
curtailed to satisfy the ~sophisms of the lower-cost-of-
government propagandists.

PRIVATE AND PUBLIC OWNED POWER RATES.

A public-owned Power Plant is a great savings to any
group Of people and would be of especial value to the
people of Montana. A comparison Of figures and rates
show the great savings effected by a muncipally-owned
plant. These figures we bring to you.
In comparing figures we do not go outside the Treas
ue State to make our comparison. The Government,
through the reclamation department., purchased the Fo-
shay Power interests on the Flathead and supplies all
of the electric current used in the district. The rates
charged by the government cover maintenance, opera
ton, extensions, and everything except dividends to
stock and bond holders. The figures given are the rates
charged a restaurant in Poison and one of the same size
and type in Butte.
The Poison Bill was as follows: $50 klowatt hours,
Commercial and Power rate, $3.50 or $0.016 or one and
a half cents per kilowatt hour.
Compare this to the Butte rate:
500 kiloWatt hours, Commercial rate .......-..$35.9 6
54 kiloWatt hours, Power rate ..-...........-.. 1889
113-Tota kilowatt hours ..-.-.....-.----..S51.35
This makes an average cost of S0.046 or A IL cents
per kilowatt hour.
From these figures we see that the Butte merchant
pays three cents per kilowatt hour to stock and bond
holders, and pays three times as much for his power I'M
der private ownership.
Let the people begin computing the savings they could
make under a acknowledgement plant and plan for a
State-owned power plant in the near future. Already
two Montana communities are building municipal plants
and one more Montana City is putting in its municipal
water plant. Lets get together and rid ourselves of the
absentee coupon clippers who rob us Of our resources
and then exploit us when we use what should be right
fully ours.

tedly, is one levy that is not passed on. 1t is one tax
that stays put.
Also, there is a good reason for believing that an in
come tax sticks close to the place where it is levied, and
that accounts for the wild protests of the rich against in
creases in that particular levy.

A few suggestions to our Government, re the balancing
of the budget. These cuts could be made and few tears
would be shed by the great masses of the citizens of our
land. We also think that these economies are far SUI
perior to the present plan of wage cuts.

Fishermen Get
 $50,0O0 Judgment

Word of confirmation by the United States circuit court of ap- peals at San Francisco of a $50.- 900 judgement allowed by the district court of Alaska to seven fishing vessel operators against the United States Packing Com pany was received in Seattle by Van c. Griffin, counsel for the fishermen.
 The decision, Griffin said, up- holds the fishermen's contention their contract to turn over their catch to the packing company was made under Alaska law and not Washington law. There be- ing no fish lien statute in Wash ington, the fishermen could not have secured liens against tne racking company under a con- tract made here, Griffin said.

James R. Garfield son of the iex-President, has been entrust- ed by President Hoover with the task of compiling the platform upon which Hoover and the Re ' publican Party will wage the coming campaign.

 Garfield conferred with the President yesterday and is to call again next week, Garfield par rjed all questions on the contro- versial platform issues, such as Prohibition, with nothing more than smile.
 Garfield was politically active in the Progressive wing of the party up to 1912, when, after leading Roosevelt's Bull Moose split he retired to private life.

Plane Lands In
 Liue Volcano

Frank Dorbandt, with Father E. R. Hubbard and mechanic Herb Larison, landed his air plane inside the erupting Aniak- chak crater last Friday, in a fresh eruption. The plane was landed inside the crater after going through the roaring gates, :, narrow celft in the volcano's wall. The plane dashed through the cloud of steam and gas.
 The plane landed in a corner of the crater and Father Hub bard spent five hours walking around.
 Father Hubbard took 1000 feet of film.
 Hot currents made a strong upword draft, aiding in the take off. The departure took three minutes. Dorbandt used a spiral glide out of the crater.
 It is the first landing a plane has ever made inside of an active volcano.

 The motive for the killing is believed to have been the result of a fued. Goodlata beat up Reed in a brawl last September:

Small Concession To
 Herring Fishermen

Modifying current h TT n E fishing regulations for the bene- fiet of local boat owners, the United States Bureau of Fish cries will permit seine fishing for herring by boats under 50 feet iE length in waters between Pt. Hugh and Deepwater Point, 1t was announced by Capt. M. J. O'Cornor, Assistant Agent of the Bureau.
 The original regulations pro Eibited taking of herring in that area by any method except gill nets. A supplementary regulation just issued by the Department Of Commerce modifes this to permit seine fishing by boats rot more than 50 feet long.
 Another regulation issued at the same time by the Depart ment adds 20 days to the closed season on razor clans in the Prince William Sound district by advancing the opening oI commercial fishing from July 15 to June 25.
