This model law, sweeping in its scope,

women Of even those meager comforts
of life afforded the workers in the
larger Soviet cities. Communism's goal
is an industrialiZation that will over

capitalistic countries, especially that OF
America and Germany, and no petty
humanitarian consideration for the well
fare of the workers can interfere.
This forced labor, this drafting of
manpower to where it is most needed
is no new thing in Soviet Russia. In
1929 the government found it necessary
to press peasants into service on the
collective farms, especially in the
Ukraine. And the practice of forcing

DRYHEAD
P VORACIOUS
FOR MEAT

Farmers around here shouldn't
complain too much about the
grasshoppers that swarm the
fields. Over by Dryhead they have
crickets with real fresh meat APP
petites, according to stories told
by Dryhead folk in Red Lodge
this week.
Dave Good, foreman of the
Lockhart ranch, said that recently
the outfit lost a couple of cattle.
Crickets descended on the car
cases, devouring and stripping
the meat from the bones until the
beeves were nothing but polished
skeletons.
Others said, with utmost solem-
ity, that the crickets had been
seen to make mass attacks on live
rattlesnakes, killing and devouring
the reptiles piecemeal.
Among those who came over
from the dry country Tuesday
were Phil Smell, Claude st. John,
Joe Smith, Mr.. Caldwell, Mr.. and
Mrs. w. E. Tillet and Miss Caro-
line Lockhart, writer of western
life stories.

BELIEVES WALSH'S
DEATH WAS MURDER
Third Party Advocate Says

crooked financiers was voiced re.

Episcopal leader, al Washington
D. c., as reported by newspapers
in that city.
Canon Chase, prepayment Of a
new, dry, anti-vice third party
for the 1886 presidential cam
paign, said Walsh had expressed
an intent to Jail "about 20 finan-
ciers" just a few days before his
death.
The late senator died on a rail
road train enroute from Florida
to Washington with his bride Of
a week. He had just accepted an
appointment as attorney general.
Physicians attributed his death to
heart disease induced by the ex-
element of his recent marriage
and appointment to the cabinet.

ment. "My suspicious were so

was that s~low-acting poison drops
had been administered to him, the
