HUGE DEMONSTRATION

The Executive Council Of the

that there will be a huge demon

Gil said the other day: "The
people are now realizing that what
we told them in August Is correct.

that the coming winter will be the
worst that Montana has ever ex-
perienced and the relief require

ties. But there was no increase
for the month of September, but
the $1,000 allotted for August and
Seutember, was doubled to $4,000
for October. This is about one
tenth of what is actually needed.
Because of this hundreds of chill
dren are not going to school for
want of clothes and hundreds OF
children in the county are now &C
tually starving, slowly starving to
death.
This condition does not seem to
disturb the members of the Board

the county in one way and an
other, nor the county officials who

it disturb most of the members OF
