funds TO
Be MADE AVAILABLE
FOR NEEDY SCHOOLS
Would Serve AS Gifts to
Distressed Districts;
Not Loans

Harry L.. Hopkins. administra.
tor of federal emergency relief has
made public a statement that fed
eral funds will be available for
schools that would otherwise re-
main closed because of a lack OF
funds. This statement which Is In
tact but an Interpretation of the
federal emergency relief act con-
strues the provisions of the act in
such a manner that funds may be
applied for to hire teachers or 9TH
er persons qualified to teach In
those districts which because Of
financial straits are not now in a
position to open their schools.
At the relief meeting held In
Malta two weeks ago, state direc-
tor. Spaulding, gave notice OF this
form of special relief to schools.
but said public announcement OF
the plans were to be withheld.
pending a statement from Wash
ington.
The major portion OF the ex-
pense OF maintaining a school
comes under the head Of teachers
salaries and In many cages 1t Is an
expense that cannot be met by the
Issuing of registered warrants as
most teachers are not In a position
to advance funds of their own for
living expenses. For this
the ruling of the admins
means much to those dis
tricts which have been hard hit BIZ
the depression and the consequent
n~on-payment OF local taxes. Money
through other channels
would ultimately have to be re-
paid, with interest; this Is an out
right gift for the emergency. 9th
er expenses of maintaining the
must be met from the pro.
reeds OF local taxes.
Under the requirements OF the
the teachers must be unem-
Dloyed and In need of relief assist
n G and likewise the district ap-
plying for such federal funds must
in a financial condition where
he school Is In danger of being
slosed for all or a portion of the
school year. Those federal
unds may be used in keeping open
up to and including the
grade and also for the pur-
lose of teaching adults unable to
-ead and write English.

of Dagmar last Friday. The orig
in OF the fire vas unknown. Meth
er Mr.. and Mrs. Dionne were at
home at the time of the fire. A
small girl had built a fire and was
preparing to get a meal when 1t is
believed in some way the building
caught fire.
The family has been left with
out any personal belongings what
ever, all their furniture and cloth
ing being entirely destroyed.
Neighbors have been caring for
them since the fire, and assisting
in securing clothing for the family
OF eight, left practically destitute.
The family will of course receive
aid through the Emergency Relief
agency, but even that will not pro-
vide them with the necessities of
life to start the winter. Anyone
having any clothing or bedding.
which they could spare would be
doing an act of human kindness to
leave any articles at the Relief
office in Plentywood marked for
these unfortunate people. They
Will be delivered promptly, and will
be most gratefully received.
Mr. Dionne is a cousin OF Frank
Dionne in Plentywood.

Springs Big
Surprise in Tourney
Three-Game Series 10 Be
Played Off Here Next
Sunday

Buford, merely a flag station on
the main line of the Great North
ern just across the Dakota side. Is
only a relic of a once thriving city
in the days when Montana had the
saloon. All that Is left is the his
torical y significance surrounding
the old military Fort Buford in
the days of Indian trading.
But to the Plentywood-Outlook
baseball players and fans who saw
the opening game of the tourna-
ment last Friday, Buford carries u
different meaning. After having
taken the Williams county cham
pionship among II amateur teams.
Buford was invited to substitute
for Wolf Point who had with
drawn. The locals looked upon the
move as as"big break" as they had
been drawn to 60 against the
Wolves in the opening encounter.
This will be easy sailing de-
clared the management. We'll
just take things easy against the
farmers and save ourselves for the
final game ~
Movie! Imagine the surprise
when Buford began clouting Chat
les curves all over the lot. The
first four batters hit their first
pitched balls for good singles. Then
Plentywood knew they had a ball
game on their hands. After inter-
mittently stopped two or three
times on account of showers. the
game finally went to the 9Th in
ming and a tie of z to z.
And so the game and the tour
nament ended, but both teams are
anxious to get at one another in
the playoff next Sunday. Plenty
wood declares their players were
not up to form. Buford insists
they will be in even better trim
and will take the locals. 1t will
be a battle royal, and because Of
the local interest, the opening
game next Sunday at 1890 is GER
tain to draw a big crowd.
Two games will be played In the
afternoon, the first starting at
1870. Williston, given the edge
the championship honors BY
of their decisive victory over
Wolf Point last Sunday, may be
like Plentywood was halt
ID. Tickets purchased last Friday
will be honored Sunday. The
orice of admission will be the same
or all games.
Interest In baseball has not run
high in Plentywood and Outloc
or many years, and with fayorap,e
Weather, a record-breaking crowd
will be In town for the big three
series.

Plans of Radical Leaders
Frustrated, and Threshine
Proceeds Under Guard

4 demonstration Of a group of
radical leaders. purporting to rep
resent the Sheridan County Holt
day Association. was frustrated
near Dooley Monday afternoon
when Sheriff Hans Madsen and
undersheriff Franc Murray took
charge OF threshing operations and
the hauling of wheat from the
farm formerly owned by M. f..
Lerbeck.
The land had been farmed by
Harry Ehrmanntraut the past two
years. 1t had been foreclosed on
and the period OF redemption ex-
pred last April. Title passed to
the Federal Land Bank. Ehrmann-
trant had leased the land from the
Land Bank, and had contracted to
deliver one-fourth of the crop to
the elevator in Dooley.
While Mr.. Ehrmantraut was i'm
brentwood to attend a meeting of
the Farmers Union, OF which he
was the county chairman, reports
were brought to him that a group
was gathering at the farm and
some trouble was expected. He i'm
mediately solicited the aid of the
sheriff's office and the county ait
torney, both OF whom responded by
going promptly to the scene of ac-
ton.
A threshing crew had moved on
to the land and started operations
about noon. When the officers ar
rived the machine and crew were
idle, and a truck load of Ehrnan- /
traut's wheat standing in the yard.
Art Mole. chief spokesman for the
group or some forty members, said
they intended taking o~ne-fourth of
the crop as the former owners
claiming has right through |
Of a possibility of r~efinanc-
ing and regaining possession Of the
land under the new government
loan plan.
Ehrmanntraut insisted he could
only fulfill the obligation of his
lease, delivering o%ne-fourth OF the
grain to Dooley for the Land Bank,
and refused to countenance the
releasing Of any share in anyone
name.
The threshing crew was directed
Sheriff Madsen to resume oper-
atoms, and the load of wheat
which the Association had plan
led taking charge OF was hauled
Dooley with under sheriff Franc .
Murray accompanying the driver.
The officers remained at the
arm until threshing was complet-
