BACK FROM
WASHINGTON VISIT
Explains Working of Latest
Federal Highway
Measure

o. H. P. Shelley, editor of The
News and a candidate for the Re-
publican nomination at the prim-
airy of July II for the six-year
term in the United States senate,
returned to Red Lodge early Mon
day from Washington, D. c.,
where for the past two weeks he
had been lending his support to
the successful passage of the
Cartwright federal road construc-
ton bill through the senate. The
bill received the presidents sig
nature Monday authorizing ex-
penditure of $522,0O0,OO0 over a
period of three years.
Averring that the bill will mean
creation of a large road building
appropriation with a measurable
benefit to highway construction in
Montana, the Red Lodge senatorial
candidate said upon his return
here that the measure made quick
progress through the upper house.
Although the $460,000,0 900 appro-
priation originally asked for in
the bill was sliced to 1924, 100000
before its passage was effected,
Mr.. Shelley said, the amount OBJ
tanned was far beyond the expec-
tations of the sponsors.
The original figure asked for
was to spend as Congress saw fit,
the News editor explained, and to
appropriate it without the states
having to provide matching funds.
With the latter figure, however,
congress went much further for
providing for continuing the nor
NAL federal aid program in the
fiscal years of 1867. The
measure carried contractal author
ization for 1925, 100000 to be ap-
p~ropriated each of those years,
upon condition that the states
match it with an equal amount.
In addition for each of the same
two years, $4,000 900 is provided
for forest highways, $2,5O0, 900 for
main roads through public lands,
$7,5O0,000 for roads and trails in
national parks and $4,000, 900 for
Indian reservation roads. Twenty
four million dollars of the appro-
priation does not have to be
matched and includes a fund for
roads in states, 25 per cent of
which must be spent on feeder
roads unless state laws prohibit
such expenditures.

RULING ON
AK, SHOVEL, FIRE
FOR FOREST AREA
Restrictions Are In Effect
Today In Forest
Areas

AK, shovel and water c~ontainer
requirements and the no smoking
ban in the national forests go in
to effect today, according to word
received this week by Warren Ak
ers, ranger in charge of the
Beartooth area, from w. J. Der
rick, forest supervisor. General
p%rohibitive measures relative to
throwing cigarette butts, cigar
stubs, pipe heels and other burn
ing objects on national forest
lands are also effective.
According to the orders received
here by Mr.. Akers, previous press
accounts regarding the matter did
not make the restrictions wholly
clear. The idea of the no smoking
restrictions is to confine smoking
to habitations and improved camp
grounds.
Through highways are also ex-
empt from the restrictions, an ex-
ample being the Red Lodge-C Cooke
City highway. Forest development
roads, however, such as those
leading up the main creek from
the c. c. G. camp and those on
the west fork, are not excepted
from the regulations.
The requirements are the same
as have been in effect for the past
few years, although going into eff
feet a little earlier this year and
before the need actually exists.
The restrictions are to be effective
until favorable climatic conditions
again occur.
The following have been taken
from the regional forester's pro-
clamation which becomes effective
today:
No smoking-except at places
designated by the supervisor of
each forest and at improved camp
ing grounds and places of habita-
tons.
Going or being upon national
forest lands without having in or
upon the conveyance used a suit
able ak, a suitable shovel and a
water container of at least one
gallon capacity. Foot travellers
are excepted.
Throwing or placing burning
cigarette stubs, cigar butts,
matches, pipe heels, firecrackers
or any other burning substance
upon forest lands where they
might start a fire and the dis
charge of any kind of fireworks
on any portion of the national for
est which is under the restrictions.

BANK
LOAN VOLUME rs UP

The Spokane Bank for Cooper
atives has announced approval Of
a 100000 loan to a fruit cooper
alive association in Oregon, bring
ing the total of loans approved
since the bank began business the
first of this year to $1,748,5 73.
This is the second 5000, 1000 COM
mitment made by the bank, ac-
cording to ]. A. Scollard, presi-
dent.
Service of the bank is being
rendered to small and large CO.
operatives alike, loans approved
ranging from as low as $4,000 to
as high as the $4,000 effective
merchandising loan made recently
to North Pacific Grain Growers,
Inc.
The average of loans made to
date is slightly in excess of $48,-
500 each, Mr.. Scotland said.
Loans r made to producer
owned and controlled cooperative
associations throughout Washing
ton, Oregon, Idaho and Montana,
handling a wide variety of farm
products.
"Our volume of loans is running
substantially ahead of our expec-
tations at the first of the year.
said Mr.. Scollard. Associations
requiring funds for handling the
seasons crop each year find the
present low rate of 3 per cent in
terest per annum charged by the
bank on effective merchandising
loans to be a substantial saving
which can be reflected directly tc
the producers through reduction
Of overhead expenses charged
against the products"

COUNTY CORN HOG
CONT ACTS GO TO
MONTANA CAPITAL
224 Sent to Helena Board
Of Review For
Tabulation

A total of 224 corn-hog con
tracts in this county have been
sent to Helena for tabulation by
the state board of review, accord
ing to word received this week
from the office of the Corn-Hog
Control association of Carbon
county.
Necessity of sending the con-
tracts to Helena is by require
ment of the state review board
and due to the fact that there is
no county agent to superintend
this work in Carbon county, the
associations statement, as issued
by Fred Armstrong, Fromberg,
w. L. Lindsay, Bridger, and c. c.
Vincent, Red Lodge, of the county
allotment committee, said.
Carbon county hogs produced
for market during the past two
years, 1928, numbered 1886
head, according to figures of the
county allotment committee in
preparing producers statements
for publication. Taking rs per
cent of the average of the two
years production county growers
will receive payment for 6,126
head. Under agreement of the
corn-hog program, the govern
ment is to make payment at the
rate of So a head. The total gov
eminent payment to Carbon coun-
ty hog growers will amount to
S30,63O.
The figures, however, are APP
the association said,
and may be above the allotment
quota for this county, in which
case the state review board will
ask for a reduction from those
producers whose evidence is not
satisfactory. Every effort is be-
ing made to complete the program,
the association said, and growers
are asked to be patient. Much
time is required to make every de-
tail of the program satisfactory to
the corn-hog section at Washing
ton, it was said.

STATE FARMERS GET MORE
IN SECOND WHEAT PAYMENT

Bozeman, June 1S.-Montana
farmers who signed wheat adjust
ment contracts will receive about
1907, 900 in the second wheat
benefit payment. This is consid-
erably more than was expected

stead of eight cents as planned
originally, according to word re-
ceived by Director j. c. Taylor,
Montana extension service, from
Washington, d. c. The increase
means about 3h million dollars

NEWS RACE AS
PERIOD CLOSES
All Are Out to Get That
$500 First Grand
Award

The bars are up-the track IS
clear-and all of those ambitious
candidates entered in u sub
subscription campaign have the
fright of way. With the prelim-
inaries of the race almost over,
the battle for that Big Cash
Award of FIVE HUNDRED DOL
LARS begins in real earnest.
And it will be a battle. Make
no mistake about that. Every n
of the candidates entered has
"his" eye on that Big Cash prize
and believe us there will be some
real action before the cash prize
will be awarded to the winning
candidate-just a few short weeks
away.
And candidates - don't lose
sight for a minute Of the other
fine cash awards if you fail to
finish in first place. You have
genuine assurance that you will
be handsomely repaid for your eff
forts in this drive, even if you fail
to win the First Grand Award.
Race Is In Its Infancy
While the campaign is yet in its
infancy" several of the most ag-
gressive workers have started in
the race with a goodly number of
votes to their credit. In fact no
less than six workers in the field
have already secured and turned
in more than two "clubs" Of sub
scriptions, thusfar. That means
there are a goodly number of en-
trants who mean business" in
this race. The leaders of today,
however, are not necessarily the
winners of tomorrow as five full
weeks remain to bridge the gap
between the highest and the low
est candidate entered. But the
race is on and the challenge has
been made by a half dozen ener-
getic workers to others who as
yet have failed to take the fullest
advantage of their opportunities.
Will you accept the challenge and
make every effort to forge to the
top position in the first relative
standing to be shown next We'd
nesday or will you stand still and
watch the parade of costly awards
pass you by?
Any worker entered in the drive
or an entirely new entrant, for
that matter, could head the list of
candidates in that first relative
standing if the proper amount of
effort were applied!
Time Grows Shorter
The time grows shorter each
day to earn the maximum votes on
subscriptions. Right now only two
weeks remain before the close of
the BIG VOTE period on June 80.
That means you must rush every
subscription available to the cam
paign department now while the
BIG VOTES are still in effect.
Don't Wait-what is to be done,
must be done NOW
No Cutters Entered
Candidates you are "off at the
post" and the ace is growing hot.
Your ability and capacity have al
ready been demonstrated. Can
you finish as strong as you have
started? You most certainly can
if your courage does not fail you.
And if we read human nature
right, there is no such a misery"
as a gutter entered in the drive.
Get in the race with a shout,
for you're off in a bunch. And,
may the best candidate WIN!
