bORAH WARNING
HEARDBY EDITORS
Senator Calls on Press to
Defend Constitutional
Rights of People.

The press of the Nation was called
on last night by Senator Borah, Re-
publican. of Idaho. to protect the
people against Governmental en-
croachment on their constitutional
rights
In general criticism Of the trend
Of the New Deal. he told the Ameri-
can Society of Newspaper Editors at
its Willard Hotel banquet that his
sponsible positions bringing forward
again the shameless betrayal Of free
speech found in the old alien and
sedition laws"
Borah termed as a dangerous ex-
pertinent" and exploded theory the
effort to control opinions and belief
by laws"
Declares Public Holds Key.
This trend away from constitu-
tional methods can never be arrested
In any other way than by aroused
and well-sustained public opinion" he
said. In other words, 1t Is distinctly
the peoples fight. There Is little to
be expected from political parties.
They are prone to subordinate every
thing to party success or to party ex-
pediency. The history Of the two lead
ing political parties during the last
80 years gives little evidence of any
serious differences as to the most
pronounced tendencies in matters Of
Government
The practice which has grown up
Of authorizing departments to make
rules and regulations, the violation of
which constitutes a crime, is one Of
the most Objectionable practices with
which the citizen has to contend. This
practice has been denounced by both
parties when out Of power and adopt
ed and extended by both parties when
in power. There Is scarcely any
scheme imaginable more calculated to
instill fear and confusion in the mind
of the ordinary person and to finally
undermine all freedom of action than
to subject him to countless rules and
regulations by numberless depart
ments, or bureaus, the violation Of
which burdens his property or re-
strains him of his liberty. 1t is a
species of tyranny that is foreign to
every concept of constitutional Gov
ernment.
Sees Peril in Bills.
Senator Borah reminded his hear
ers that in recent months "a deluge
of bills" has been introduced in State
Legislatures and Congress, some of
which ENTER the domain Of opinions
and beliefs and would seek to restrain
or control such opinions and beliefs
by punitive measures"
He termed such measures "a dan
gerous experiment" and "at war with
the first principles of democracy"
and held they meant "spies and provo
cateurs" and revived the spirit of the
old alien and sedition laws.
He defended the great body of the
American people from the idea that
they are carried away with strange
isms." He denied they are ready for
communism or faSciSm"
The Senator summed up his re-
marks. in urging the press to be on
guard for the rights of the American
people, as follows:
THE Constitution is the rule which

OUR MAIL BAG

Bditor Of Montana OIL & Mining
Journal,
Great Falls, Montana
Dear Sir:
In your Issue OF October 26th,
note an article relating to the
life activities and passing OF Fred
Whiteside. This article carries the
statement that Fred Wlhiteside was
instrumental In exposing a So
100000 State Capitol contract
The writer was at the State
Capitol from 1907 to 1917, and
during that period the wings OF
the Capitol Building were construc-
ted The main building is construc-
ted of sandstone and Is very sus-
oeptible to weather conditions, the
surface breaking off In spots due
to expansion and contraction I'M
der temperature changes. Because
Of this fact It was decided to
huild the wings of granite. A
fine and credible job was done
and there was no whisper Of graft.
The original building was con-
structed under contract by H. L.,
Frank OF Butte. After the work
was well under way it was dis
covered that Franks bid was too
low by approximately $4,000. H.
L. Frank being a man OF honor
completed the building according
to contract and stood his loss with
out a murmer. However, the lead
ers Of both major political parties
realized that Montana had re-
ceived full value for every dollar
spent, got together and the next
session OF the Legislature reim-
bursed Frank in full for his loss.
surely there could be no question
Of graft there
Fred Whiteside and the writer
were friends for thirty five years
and in my opinion too much Gre
ait cannot be given him for his
service TO Montana.
I hope this letter may serve to
correct any impression that there
was a question of Capitol con-
struction graft in either instance.
Very Truly Yours

SHORTER DAY
FOR DRILLERS
HERE TO STAY

One thing the MIRA did for the
Montana oil industry was TO pro-
vide an S-hour day as a permanent
institution.
Whereas drillers and toolies
would rather put IN more hours
and get larger pay. contractors
have discovered that It costs no
more to use three eight-hour shifts
than to use two 12-hour shifts
and the efficiency OF the eight
hour shifts Is 50 much greater
that Il pays dividends.
Recently one operator tried TO
go back 10 the 12-hour day in
Cut Bank and after a short time
he determined that three crews
would make more hole than two.
The use OF three shifts Is said
TO be an important factor In speed
ing up drilling time on cable tool
Jobs In Cut Bank field. Cable tool
outfits are able to compete with
rotary equipment because OF in
creased efficiency.

AUGUST WAS PEAK
MONTH OF HISTORY
OF OIL INDUS TRY

Domestic demand for motor fuel
in August 1885 in the United
states was 10 per cent above the
domestic demand IA August, 1884.
while exports were 80 per cent
greater than q year ago. This re-
suited in a decline Of 4,746 bar
reis from storage during the month
since the refineries we're unable
TO make enough gasoline TO meet
current demands.
Meantime. crude oil stocks were
reduced 2.729. coo barrels during
August, inasmueh as daily average
production was not sufficient 10
meet the refinery runs.
Despite this. refinery net-backs
did not improve The price index
for petroleum in August was 52.4
compared with 1913 for July and
AIS for August, 1884.
Montana daily production in Au-
gust averaged 1900 barrels per
day, an increase OF 200 barrels
per day over July. In the January
August period. total production
was 2,93S,00O barrels against g.
$4,000 barrels during the same
period in 1884.
Montana's stored oil declined
from 1.393.00O barrels in July to
i.33T.00O barrels on August 81.

SERIOUS effects are not due TO
this or that section being more
severely hit by the quake but to
the ground upon which such sec

the west side OF Helena, built on

ton in which the foundations were
carried to bed rock, were not seri-
ously affected as the area east

did ambulance collided with another
caE skidded over the pavement to the
curb where it turned over and caught
fire.
y Harry Wallthrop, As, of 1892 second
street northeast, driver of a Board OF
Public Welfare Ambulance, was pin
ned beneath the burning vehicle and
the sick boy was trapped inside. They
were extricated by United States park
police and passing motorists and
rushed to Emergency Hospital.
=. =, Hospital attaches today said Wall
tl1rop suffered second and third de-
gree burns to the legs, left arm and
face; several fractured left ribs,
possible fractured spine, internal in

Young Rochester, who lives at 2241
N street, received only minor burns
and his condition was not considered
serious in Emergency Hospital, where
he remained for treatment.
Shortly after the accident, police
arrested Leslie c. Eggleston, "a,
Heurich Brewing Co. employe, charg-
ed him with reckless driving and
later released him on $1,000 bond.
"Eggleston pleaded not guilty and de-
manded a jury trial when arraigned
In Police Court this morning.
Eggleston told police he was trail

BARK police squad car when the police
car turned on Constitution avenue
from Twenty-siXth street. The speed

gleston to prevent hitting it, he said.
