WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.-The
$500 ,OOO 600 post office and treasury
appropriation bill was passed in the
senate before some of the most as

it happened.
The measure was passed in less
than five minutes after the senate
had decided some hours before that
it couldn't undertake any important
business due TO the absence OF sew
eral members In fact, the senate
had even decided not to debate vet
Grams compensation due TO the
absentees. Whereupon Senator Hen

is an ever present and necessary
part Of his equippage, to record
what the eye beholds and what pad

lures are illustrated with motion
pictures and colored lantern slides,
his collection of the latter being
reputed as one of the finest in ex-
~istence.
Hewitt is a native Montanan,
born and raised on a ranch near
Victor. He is a product of the
University of Montana at Mis-
soula, graduating from the school
of forestry. For five years he has
been a forest ranger and deputy
sheriff in Big Horn county, Wy
oming.
This background, together with
the thousands of miles that he has
travelled with pack-horse and sad
die, has given him an intimate
knowledge of life in the great
open spaces. Consequently, his
lectures are rife with the thrills
and adventures of the mountain
trail, with humor and sudden dam
ger and intimate studies of wild
life.
On his previous lecture tours of
the east. Hewitt has appeared be-
fore such organizations as the AL

A 1,0O0-mile pack trip over
rugged mountain trails through
the UNEMPLOYED regions of south
eastern Montana and northern
Wyoming was the goal of four
young adventurers who left Red
Lodge early Friday morning after
covering 200 miles of their jour
ney.
The party was led by Bob
Hewitt, who has gained some
measure of fame as a cowboy
writer and lecturer, and included
two young eastern college men,
Austin Broadhurst of Springfield,
Mass, and George Morse of Bos-
ton, Mass. The other members of
the party was Don Spencer,
wrangler and assistant to Hewitt.
With a string of eight horses,
the party left Shell, Wyo., on July
7, trekking northward to the old
Bozeman trail and following the
historic path until they reached
the site of the old army outpost,
Fort C. F. Smith, near where they
used the old river ford to cross
the Big Horn. Heading south
westward, they struck across the
Crow reservation, arriving in Red
Lodge Tuesday night.
Since Tuesday they had rested
their pack animals here and re-
plenished their supplies before
heading into the mountain region
to the south. They planned to visit
Cooke City and Grasshopper glac-
Ter before again continuing south
to the Wind River range of 0
tains in central Wyoming. Follow
ing along on the western slope of
the range, they planned to cross
at Sweetwater gap, at the south
ern end of the range, and then
turn northward following along
the Wind Rivers eastern slopes
until they reached Dubois, Wyo.,
returning to Shell by September l..
The trip is one of several that
Hewitt makes to the Vests out
of-the-way places during the sum-
mer months of each year, to gath
err material for his lectures which
are given before prominent east
ern clubs during the winter
months. 1t will be his first such
trip into the Beartooths. The reg
ions reputation for scenic beauty
and grandeur, he said, preceded
him here.
On such trips, Hewitt avoids
human habitations as much as
possible. He seeks out the places
where very few have gone before,
following such trails as there are
and making his own where there
are none to be had. The camera

THE long arm of Nazi a4lti-semitic
4 propaganda in this country
works cunningly through hidden
hands. I have already uncovered
some Of these mysteries under
ground sources for nurturing hatred
Of the Jew. Now I shall present
evidence that the prominent one
hundred and twenty per cent pa
triot," Ralph M. Easiey, chairman
Of the Executive Council of the Ma
tional Civic Federation, $40 Lex
ington Avenue, New York City, has
secretly distributed anti-senitic
propaganda as well as reported
confidentiallly to George Sylvester
viereck, paid Nazi agent, on, the
efforts Of the patriot to stop the
Jewish boycott of German goods
an act which, if successful, would
be of incalculable service to Nazi
Germany.
The National Civic Federation
is the largest and most influential
of the patriotic" organizations,
so many Of which are flooding the
country with the "hate the Jew
creed. The Federation is close to
the federal government. Mr.. Easley
himself makes frequent and mys-
ferrous trips to Washington to con-
fer with Labor and State Depart
ment officials, either bringing them
information or "patriotically" try
ing to peddle forged document for
a price-as he tried to peddle the
now notorious Whalen forgeries
four years ago.
When he could not sell them to
Robert Kelley, chief of the Far
Eastern Division Of the State De-
partment, he tried to peddle them
to Hearst newspaper correspond
ent. And failing in that, Easley
finally stuck former Police Com
missioner Grover Whalen with
them so that the latter rushed into
print only to have the documents
a little later proven as forgeries.
mention this so that the reader
will understand how the patriot"
Ralph M. Easley works.
On the National Civic Federation
executive council we find very in
fluential men. It's ramifications
and influence are wide. There is,
for instance, the acting president
of this organization: Matthew Vol.
VOL is vice president of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor, which
went on lecord as favoring the
boycott Of German goods.
Then there is Archibald Steven
