O'CONNELL ASKS HELENA LIONS
TO BACK PROGRESSIVISM
A. C. NJ. Co. Influence.

Secondly, l cite the action of the
House in the investigation of the adj
ministration of the Civil Works Pro-
gram in Silver Bow County. l was a
member of the committee sent to
Butte to investigate, and we found a
rotten situation, and ! say rotten, be-
cause it literally stunk to high heavenl
A majority of the committee brought
in a report exposing the activities of
the A. c. M. Co., condemning the DOM
nation and control of that Company
over the committee administering the
program. We condemned the employ
ment of 235 men who were not on re-
lief rolls, the employment of men al
ready g%ainfully employed and who
were merely transferred to more lu-
crative positions under the C.. w. A.
payroll, and the State Highway Com
mission payroll, because the primary
purpose of the C. w. A. program was
to transfer men from relief rollse to
pay rolls, to give those who had been
in need and want, who had been I'M
employed, a chance to earl the where
withal to buy, to restore the. purchas-
ing power of this nation, to bring pros
perity once again to you businessmen.
We also condemned the pernicious
practice of requiring men seeking re-
lief to produce the Anaconda Com
pany's "rustling card" which is a per-
nit to seek employment in the Butte
Mines, and which permit you never
get if you ever disagree with the Ana
conda Company in its political and
economic domination of this state. IN
fortunately, this time the corporate
interests prevailed because their pow
erful lobby brought every possible
pressure to bear, but | want to tell
you that that incident is not closed,
and a federal investigation will turn

men of the company from their posi-
tions.

The taxicab drivers put on another
of their mass pickets, clearing the
streets of all scab cabs. This time,
the picket line was led by DR.. David
Saposs of Brookwood Labor College,
Professors Colston f.. Warne of Am
herst. Coleman B. Cheney of Skid
more and Maynard c. Kruger of
Chicago, and Miss Fannie Simons of
the New York Rand School of Social
Science. All were in Philadelphia at
tending American Economic Assn.
sessions. The march took place fol-
lowing a strike meeting which was
addressed by Saposs and Dorothy
Douglas and Katherine Lumpkin, both
of Smith College.
Meanwhile, the public service COM
mission heard testimony which de-
elared that taxicab service in the city
had become dangerous because of in
experienced drivers and interference
by strikers. The commission may re-
woke the P. R. T. license to operate.
Frank McGlone, organizer for the
Brotherhood of Transportation Work
ers, ordered his men, during the
strike, to refuse to drive for "a chain
grocery and meat shops. More than
1900 fruit, grocery and meat clerks
are on strike for a S15 minimum wage.
The strike situation may develop
further. The hotel walters and wait
resses are planning a walkout soon
and workers in Philadelphia shipyards
are taking a strike vote.

Runaway Caused

While Maurice Castle was picking
corn at his farm near Tracy recently,
two hunters came along in car and
stopped in the field. They fired at a
pheasant in front of the horses, the
shot soaring the animals and caus-

a barbed wire fence. Maurice, after
skinning both legs badly succeeded in
getting back in the wagon and bring

were beating it up the road. The
farm was posted with "No Hunting

WASHINGTON FARMERS
REPAY RACE LOANS

SPOKANE-Was hington farmers
fruit growers and livestock men
who borrowed total of approxi1n-
ately $11,000,O00 from the Regional
Credit corporation have shown their
good faith by repaying $10,125,00
to date, according to F. A. Johnson,
manager at Spokane.
Created from RF'C funds in 1882
when nearly all other borrowing
channels for agriculture were shut
off by depression deadlock, the
RACE came to the rescue of thou
sands of farmers and helped them
survive the period of credit string
ency.
While loans through the RACE
were of an emergency character
filling an acute need, they were not
granted as "relief handouts" but in
all cases were adequately secured
with definite provision for repay
ment.
Liquidate RACE
With the passing of the emergen-
cy period, such direct governmental
loans are now curtailed and the
RACE is in process of orderly liqui-
dation. This field Of credit service
is now being filled by Washing
tons seven production credit a.sso-
Citations set up under supervision of
the Farm Credit administration,
wherein borrowers become stock
holders in their local association
and share noice in management.
Another contrast is that govern
ment money is not loaned by the
production credit associations, but
borrowing funds come from private
investors. The associations discount
farmers notes with the Federal In
termediate Credit Bank of Spokane
which derives it's funds from the
sale of debentures in the open mar
ket. At the present time the credi
bank is enjoying such favorabl,
market for it's debentures that tn,
peas are able to offer loans t,
farmers and stockmen at per cen
interest.

ILLEGAL METHODS PUT
NAMES ON INITIATIVES

The recent decision of the SUI
preme Court denying relief asked
by the opponents of Initiative Mea-
sures II and 81 based on the ground
that the signatures were obtained
by paid solicitors and other fraud
ulent means, has caused great con-
Germ among the friends OF the In
itiative, and of popular government.
! They fear that it puts a powerful
weapon in the hands of big interests
of this state in initiating practical
ly any measure they desire, If paid
solicitors can be employed to circu-
late petitions; it also puts the small
er towns and Farming districts at
the mercy of the large cities.
In it's decision the Supreme court
holds that signatures obtained by
paid solicitors are valid under our
existing law, although it is possible
to punish both the solicitor and the
person who hired them. The court
in it's decision says:
Appellant earnestly urges that
the extraordinary equitable powers
of the court should be exercised to
the end that popular government be
rescued from the slough into which
it has fallen through the machina-
lions of selfish interests, but much
as we sympathize with that view
point and deprecate the use of meth
DDS such as here charged, we see
no possibility of granting the desir-
ed relief without disregarding all
precedent and usurp political pow
ers which have never yet been
granted to or assumed by the
courts"
: When filed Initiative Measure
No. II contained 10000 names, of
which $4,000 were thrown out by
the Secretary of State as not valid.
Some of the petitions bore the
names of Mahatma Ghandi, Primo
Carnera, Mae West, and of prac-
tically all Of the famous movie
stars.

Lunch Important
In School Work
School Child Cannot Do Fast
Work Without Nourishing
And Appetizihg Food

NouriShing and appetizing school
lunches may mean the difference
between an alert pupil and a dull
pupil, declares Rae Russell, state
college extension nutritioniSt. No
school child forced to eat an UNI
appetizing and inadequate lunch
can supply the concentration and
energy necessary to proper study.
Because of this Importance to the
welfare of the child, school lunches
should be planned well in advance,
so that the main dishes each day
include the food essential to good
nutrition.
Every nourishing school lunch
should be built around one inexpen-
sive hot dish. These dishes offer
such variety that they can easily
be planned so that there need be
no duplication for several weeks.
Dreamed vegetables or meat and
vegetables are always standard
dish. Nourishing soups rich in
vegetables or milk, or both, are
good. Beans or other legumes, eggs
prepared in some simple way and
any number of cheese or scalloped
dishes provide wide choice.
Vary Menu
The amount of bread and butter
with the lunch depends upon how
filling the main dish is. Although
in most cases sandwich Filings are
unnecessary they often make a
pleasing addition to the lunch when
a light main dish is served. Finely
chopped cabbage, carrots, lettuce or
celery, mixed with creamed butter
or little mild salad dressing is an
attractive way of introducing raw
vegetables into the lunch. Peanut
butter, seasoned cottage cheese or
grated American cheese with salad
dressing provide other appetizing
Filings.
Fresh fruits provide the best des-
serts, although fruit sauces, canned
fruit and dried fruits do well when
fresh fruits are not available.
Simple cookies help increase the
food value of the lunch and make
an attractive addition to the dessert.
Every school child should have a
full cup of milk with lunch in adj
dition to that used in the prepara-
ton of the food. 1t may be served
as cocoa or spiced milk to add
variety.

and expense over a period of years.
When they are known to be pre-
sent, he will reject the seed or
reclean it to eliminate the weeds
before he sows his crop.
If a farmer finds a new weed
encroaching on his fields or cultiA

send a specimen to the State Col
