and the Bureau after careful exami-
nation of all alternative and possible
alternative routes, called for bids tor
the construction of a section OF high
way No. 2 between the points named.
After the contract had been let, OBJ
lection was made by the Forest Serv-
ice upon the grounds, inter ALA, that
the road should have been located on
.he north side Of the Kootenai River
rather than on the south side, that the
contract made by the Commission with
the Great Northern Railway Company
was in some ways unsatisfactory to the
Forest Service, particularly with ref
erence to the matter of snow removal
and possible change of grade at some
future time. Apparently the different
departments were at the time unable
to compose their differences and the
whole matter was referred to the heads
of the respective departments and is
now lodged finally in your depart
ment
We have been given to understand,
that so far rs the Forest Service IS
concerned;~it isywdhng TO rccede' from
its objections to the location of the
road. Further, that it is willing to
waive its objection to the contract
with the Great Northern Railway Com
pany, provided the Highway Commits
sion assumes all the obligations Of tina.
contract This, we understand the Com
mission is willing to do There was a
minor objection to the effect that the
Forest Service desired to be relieved
from the usual obligation to maintain
the highway for the first two years,
but we understand that the Service
is willing to recede from this objection.
1t would seem therefore, if we are
correctly informed, that the way is
open to prompt settlement Of the
whole question.
We have appealed to all the Local
agencies, such as the Forest Service
the Bureau Of Public Roads and the
Montana Highway Commission, as vel
~ns our senator's and representatives. AL
Of these peoples have received our COM
munications irfsa friendly and sympa-
thetie spirit and have expressed thel
inclinations to do everything humanl,
possible to help LIS, but unfortunately
there seems 10 be nothing they car
do until your department has taken
action.
Under these circumstances may we
not hopefully make direct appea
to you to segregate this particular prof.
ect from the general program, give i
your approval and leave the contractor
to whom the contract was awarded
free to proceed with the construction
of the highway If you can see youl
way clear to do this we assure yot
that our people Of Lincoln County viii
be greatly appreciative and the peo-
pie local and general will be greatly
benefited

DsUMMER EVENING FASHIONS LOOK TOWARD FALL

doubtedly carry over into fall.
Photographed to the left below

silk crepe, with exotic flower
corsage in harmonizing pastels.
With the coat on, you have a
dinner or theater costume, and
without the coat, an evening
gown with deep U decolletage.
Prints enliven the summer
scene, and are newest when they
are on satin. In the center, be-
low, you see a stunning gown
of printed satin, in natural field
flower colors. The same colors
are repeated in the corsage of
flowers at the waistline. You
can see the low-cut decolletage
with crossed-over straps. The
rather high cowl neckline in
front is perfectly plain.
, Chiffon is charming because
it is summery, simple, and in
lovely colors. To the right be-
low you see a gown in pale
peach, with brown velvet making
the girdle, and the centers to
the flowers. A ruffled bertha
covers the shoulders, and in ad-
dition, you have with the gown,
a three-quarter length coat with
long graceful puffed sleeves.

Girl Sued for $4,000 Says

OMAHA, Neb., April 28.-Fellow
members of the local Lutheran
church rallied today to the defense
Of Miss Gertrude Gruenig, defend
ant in $4,000 alienation of affec-
tions suit brought by the divorced
wife of the Rev. Oliver Baltzly, for
mer pastor of the church.
Witnesses testified that Miss
Guenig was about the church study
on oftener than many other women
active in the affairs of the Kountze
Memorial church, largest English
language Lutheran church in the
world.
Mrs. Doris Purcell said that tes-
timony reporting the pastor as
holding hands with the defendant
meant nothing Mrs. Purcell, young
and pretty, said the pastor held
every ones hands.
Attorney H. w. HasseIquist for
Mrs. Baltzly expressed skepticism.
I'll demonstrate if you like" Mrs.
Purcell said.
Nimbly stepping from the witness
box, she gayly walked to where the
pastor was sitting, and, clasping his
hand affectionately, converSed with
him several minutes.

Monsters Built
Ft. Wayne Man Making
Dinosaurs for World
Fair Display.

By United Press
1T. WAYNE, Ind, April 26.-
l. Dinosaurs, those forty-ton
monsters that roamed the earth
hundreds of millions of years ago,
will twist and grunt at the Chi
cago worlds fair this year.
Seven of the numbering beasts,
ranging from four feet to seventy
feet long. are being brought to
life here by P. G. Allen, dinoSaur-
maker extraordinary.
BrontosauruS, the largest of the
species, will wage his thirty-foot
tail, and twist his twenty-foot
neck. His sides will heave as low
grunts emit from his yawning
jaws.
The sound will be as nearly as
possible like that which scientists
believe such enormous monsters
must have uttered in prehistoric
times.
Several advantages over their
extinct brothers will be the lot of
Mr.. Aliens gigantic children.
No foraging for food will be
necessary. They'll merely stand
and be gazed at.
And in brain power, Aliens prod
ucts will be far superior.
The original Brontosaurus, for
example, had only a two-pound
brain to control action of all his
forty-ton bulk.
Aliens phenomenon will have an
electric brain, powered with an
electric motor. This brain will be
placed in the stomach. There may
be two brains-one to control
movements and one to control
SoundS-much on the order of the
dual steering apparatus of the
fire departments hook and ladder
equipment.
Among the dinosaur group be-
ing constructed by Alen-to be
shown in the display of a petro-
leum company-will be Brontosau-
rus, seventy feet; Duckbill dino
Saur, fifteen feet; Stegosaurus,
twenty-five feet; Tryannosaurus,
twenty-five feet; Triceratops,
twenty feet; to Protoceratops, four
feet, and a nest of dinosaur eggs,
showing two Protoceratops hatch
ing.

RIOT IN JAIL
Defendants in SCottSboro
Trial Are Barricaded in
Room With Weapons.

By UHtted Press
BIRMINGHAM, Ala, April %. -
The nine Negro defendants in the
Scottsboro assault cases staged a
minor riot in their call on the eighth
floor of the courthouse here Thurs
day, armed themselves with weapons
fashioned from plumbing fixtures,
and threatened to kill any one en-
tering the cell.
They were segregated in a large
corridor known as a day room"

the day and will be kept there I'M
til subdued. The corridor is not
furnished.
The trouble started Wednesday,
but was not revealed until late
Thursday
The Scottsboro defendants were
placed in a cell directly opposite a
cell occupied by Negro women
prisoners. The Negro men started
loud conversations across the corri-
dor and Jail authorities placed a
partition in the corridor.
Refuse to Take Food
The Scottsboro defendants re-
sented the action and refused to
hand out their plates when John
Lunsford. white chef at the jail,
brought food.
Lundsford reported the situation
to K. G. Dement,, inside warden at
the Jail, who found the prisoners
armed with crude weapons made of
plumbing fixtures, broken furniture
and other articles.
Dement, informed Warden r. l..
Erwin, who ordered a squad of
deputies to the day room" But
he refused to allow the deputies to
enter the Negroes cell, after the
prisoners had threatened to kill any
one who approached.
Confined in Bare Room
Warden Erwin announced he
would keep the prisoners in the I'M
furnished day rocm," until they
agreed to surrender their weapons
and accept the food offered them.
The Negroes we're reported still
voicing their threats Thursday
night.
Eight of the prisoners are await
ing second trials on charges of
criminal assault of two white girls
on a FREIGHT train raar Scott choro

ninth, Haywood Patterson, was con-
victed recently and re-sentenced to

second trial.
Trials of the other defendants are
delayed pending an appeal of Pat
terSons second conviction.
