Admits Error and Makes Another In
Reporting Comparative County Costs

ty, when one considers that Flathead
county has over $4,000 people and Lin
coin county only few more than 1000
inhabitants. A large population natur-
ally has strong tendency to lower
the per capita cost, yet with Flathead's
population nearly three times greater
than Lincoln's, facts are that Flat
heads per capita cost is only $50
less than our own county's.
There can be no fairness in compar-
ing two counties of greatly different
populations. That is evident to any
one. Furthermore these outstanding
FACTS are evident.
ID That the tax levy in Lincoln
county has been reduced while it has
been raised in Flathead county.
~ That every taxpayer in Flat
head county is paying much more in
taxes on every dollar of property he
owns than does the taxpayer in Lin
coin county.
Juggle per capita costs all one can,
the further fact remains that the Lin
coin county citizen pays less taxes on
every hundred dollars of property he
owns than does his less fortunate Flat
head county neighbor, and that in the
last analysis is the only fair basis Of
comparison.
The Mirror ought to be more care
full in its figures. We should dislike &c
believe that it is persistently knock
ing its own county by spreading mis-
information.
These figures can be verified bs

citation, Helena, Montana, for its JUNE
bulletin.

After the Western News had called
its attention to the error it had made
in reporting per capita costs IN Lin
coin and Flathead counties in regard
to highway costs, the Eureka Mirror
admits ii made an error when it re-
ported per capita highway costs in
Flathead counfy>-Were S3.O5 when the
correct figure was $6.17.
Of course, it is gratifying to have
the Mirror admit the error and cor
rect the wrong impression given out
But in making the correction the Mir
ror says, THE fact still remains that
it cost Flathead county nearly Sl100
less per capita to maintain its govern
ment than it does Lincoln county"
This is another and still greater
error by the Mirror We cannot be-
lieve that the Mirror IS deliberately
trying to mislead Lincoln county peo-
pie but neither can we understand
where it is getting its information AS
stated in the former article in the
Western News, the Mirror undoubtedly
got its statistics from bulletin issued
in June by the Montana Taxpayers
Association, which gives great amount
of information on per capita costs Of
government in the various counties Of
the state That bulletin shows that
county government in Flathead county
costs-per capita s2Os0 while in Lin
coin county the cost is 1854 That
makes difference of only $50 in
favor of Flathead county while the
Mirror says it is nearly S1100 less.
As matter Of fact, the comparison
is much to the credit of Lincoln coun-

PLENTY OF WORK FOR EVERYBODY
 IN THIS NATION
So Says Henry Ford as He Again Breaches on Cul- tivatiOn of the Many Acres of Vacant Land

 Detroit, May 10-CU. P.) --Hen- ry Ford returned to Dearborn after one of his daily inspection trips around his big farm products and announced "there Is plenty of work for everybody in this country"
 "We need" he continued, some kind of a distinction between em- ployment and work. For the first forty years of my life was an cm- ploye, and found that being out os hire was not necessarily being out of work. The first means that your employer has not found some thing for you to do; the second means that you arc waiting until he does. No doubt our industrial growth Is largely responsible for that. We have accustomed men to think of work that way.
 "In the last analysis, we live off the land. Industry and transporta- ton are only modern helps to use of the land. You cannot march to a bank and get food; you cannot petition q City Hall and get food; they don't grow 1t. The source Is the land" L and village In this country there Is an absolutely sure and certain source of supply, wholly untouch- cd. There is vacant land enough within reach of everybody to insure n minimum of uncertainty regard ing next winter. And now Is the time to do 1t. If we are to benefit by the greatest unemployment in- surance ever invented - the cul- ture of tho land-we must do It now"
 Ford got up from his chair, put his hands in his trouser pockets and walked about the office, on the inch thick carpeting, as he talked.
 'Therc need be no charity or santa Claus effort in this" he went on, "just gladly permit It's use for food raising. Groups of men who have jobs could arrange With those out of work to do the work. CO., operatively. All necessary advice and assistance Is available to any man in any community who wants to make the effort. And we should realize. everyone of us. no matter what our present position. that an immediate effort Is necessary.
 "The only charity worth any thing is that which points the way to self-he It is more costly than any other kind of charity. but It yields great dividends in self-res-. pcct and substantial relief. That is tho kind of charity We have praa tlced hero for fifteen, years, and the present emergency has proved It value past doubt.
 we are criticized because we do not use the dole system which re- duccs families to pauperism; but the thousands who have come un- der our system of self-help appre- ciate 1t, and l would rather take their Judgment than that of pro , fessional charity dispensers"

Tony was given suspend . ed jail sentence of thirty days and placed on probation for one year. ] In the combination of charges against Crimmins and O'Brien the raid was first made by a squad of agents in charge of Ralph Johnson, who was one of the leaders in the Canal street seizure of big store- house of liquors and wine. fnstruc- tions were issued at the time to have the place closed at once. About a week later Johnson re- turned and found workmen dis mantling the place. Five gallons of liquor were found on the premises and two more gallons in a contain- CT in an automobile parked in the rear of the building. The machine and the liquor were confiscated and another charge preferred against Crimmins. When the fed- eral agents conducted an investi- gation they discovered that bills for lighting, telephone and water were issued in O'Brien's name. A war; rant was consequently issued for his arrest.
 Crimmins' case is expected to be disposed of during the present ses- sion of the United States district court fin New Haven.

COURT C0NVICTS FIVE WATERBURTANS
CRIME INCREASE
 DEMANDS DEATH
 OF PROHIBITION
Col Henry w. Anderson, Virginia Lawyer and Wickersham Member, Warns the U. s.

New York, May 10.-UP)- Increase of criminal activities to an extent where they threaten the nations social and economic secur- ity demands modification of the 18th amendment, Col Henry w. Anderson of Richmond, Va, de- clared here in a warning speech.
 The Virginia lawyer, who as a member of the Wickersham com mission submitted plan to modify the amendment and set up a fed- eral dispensary system of liquor distribution, still believes his pro- posal the most logical one. John J. Raskob's referendum plea was labeled secession" by Anderson.
 The plan proposed by the chair. man of the democratic national committee would permit any state by the vote of its people to with. draw from the operation of the amendment. This, in effect" Anderson said, would seek to authorize any state to secede from the union as to this provision of the constitution. We have had enough secession in America"
 The late Senator Dwight NJ. Morrow's belief in substitution amendment giving the liquor prob- lem to the states also was cri- ticized' by Anderson.
 Tt seems" declared Anderson. unnecessary to repeal one amend ment and adopt another in con- formity with principles stated when the entire object can be accom- plished by one act: by modification or revision of the existing amend ment.
 The virginian In stressing ad- vantages of his plan traced the de- velopment of liquor legislation in this country. He pointed out that under the local option of pre-war days dry states were unable to pro- tect themselves against the in- flow of liquor from wet states.
 Fruitless efforts at prohibition enforcement were summarized by Anderson with their effects, grow ing public corruption. cluttered court dockets. overflowing prisons
 He said that while he believed his plan would be most effective in operation, he stood ready to sup port "any other sound plan which will preserve what has been gained by the painful experience, and promises an effective solutoin of this vexing problem"
 What do insist" declared An- derson. lis that we should now meet this question fairly, and seek it's constructive solution. It is no time for evading this or any other question with pious hopes or in- definite promises"
 Col Anderson objected to pro- posals of others that the Volstead act be amended to permit the sale of light wines and beer. Such an experiment. he remarked, had been tried in other countries and had been found unsatisfactory.
 As for submitting the prohibi- ton question to the people by referendum. he argued 1t was uses less to discuss such plan unless some definite proposal was framed.
 Anderson spoke before tho Ohio society of New York.
