Slippery Roads.

The recent thaws, freezes. rain
and sleet have caused the roads Of
this section to be in precariously

has fallen and they are in worse con-
dition than ever. In this respect
Chris Frederiksen, chairman of the
townsf ip ard of Partridge, desires
to receive any suggestions and plans
from any resident in the township
toward spreading gravel. While this
matter has not been talked over at
any board meeting it is possible that
some plan might be worked out If
enough interest is shown. The chair
man advises anyone to get in touch
with any board member with their
suggestions.

'G-MEN' SPLIT
ST|RS STORM

Proposal to split the Federal Bu-
reau of Investigation, shearing j.
Edgar Hoover of complete juris-
diction over his G-men machine.
drew a fiery rebuke from Attorney
General Cummings.
The Attorney General declared
such a move would defeat the
primary aims of the Government
to stamp out crime. He said:
II am determined to build up
the Bureau of Investigation. I
wouldn't even consider any plan
which would tear it down."
The proposal, sponsored by the
National Committee on Crime,
suggested the selection and train
ing of embryonic Omen entrusted
to a national crime institute, to
function under supervision Of the
committee. In effect, it would
give Hoover authority only over
agents in active service.
The plan, revealed for the first
time while he Attorney General
was in Europe, raised a storm Of
conflict in the Department of JUS
tice. Though Hoover refused to
comment, it is known he was pre-
pared to resign if the plan was put
! in operation.

'RELIEF CRISIS
PLANS MADE
BY NICE

BALTIMORE, Md, Nov. 8-Ad-
vised against the calling Of a
special session of the State legiS-
lature, Gov. Harry w. Nice yester-
day turned to his special commit
tee on relief to devise means OF
meeting the "relief crisis" expected
December when Federal funds
for direct relief will be curtailed.
Replies from queries to state
leaders on the advisability OF a
special session unanimously were
against the move.
Meanwhile, no answer had been
received from Gov. Herbert Leh-
man Of New York to the gov
ernor,s suggestion that a confer.
ence, of governors from the ~
States be called to protest the
abruptness Of Federal Govern
ment's ultimatum to end direct
relief. ..-.
Governor Nice had pointed out
the situation would likely prove
"most disastrous" to Maryland.
Figures from State Relief Ad.
ministrator Harry Greenstein's
office revealed only 1000 Of the
States 1000 "employables" had
been put to work on WPA
(Works Progress Administration
projects.
Similarly, the Baltimore Emer.
gency Relief Administration re
ported only 5000 of the city's
10000 "employables" now at
work.
However, the situation was not
expected to be as acute in the
city as in the rest Of the State
since WPA projects sufficient to
place the entire roster at work
have been approved.
Another group Of State lead
erS, headed by Senators George
Radcliffe and Millard E. Tydings
met today to consider the situa.
ton. No announcement of their
findings was made.
Both this group and the gov
ernor's special committee, headed
by William J.. Casey. Baltimore
financier, have been urged BY
the governor to speed their work

SHERIDAN COUNTY in COLD WAVE GRIP


What might have easily resulted in a fatal accident from a car speeding
past a bus dschargmg school children, a violation of Montana traffic reeua-
Reserve.
Sen. Angvick, believing that many people of Sheridan county and north
eastern Montana aren not familiar with the act regulating school bus traffic, has
asked The Herald to publish it.
Chapter Is, section 6 of the session laws of 1885 defines the duties of driv-
es to stop. Sec 6 reads, in part, "the driver Of a vehicle when approaching
the front o rear of a school bus, that has come to a stop n a highway and is
receiving or dichargng school children shall stop such vehicle not less than
10 feet from such school bus and keep said vehicle stationary until such chill
dren have entered such school-bus, o have ahghted and reached the nearest
side of the highway" Every person who shall fail to comply with or who
shall violate any provision OF this at, shall, upon conviction thereof be deemed
guilty of a misdemeanor and shall be punished by a fine of nd les. than ten
dollars and n o moret than m hundred dollars OF by both such fine and i'm
prBonment"
In the letter from Sen. AngWck he related the experience which occurred
last Friday. "This morning as usual met the school bus at the Ddphy Paul
son crossing. The school bus got there ahead of US. A young lad riding with
me got out of the EAR first and started for the school bus n a hurry, a natural
high speed called loud to the boy to stop. He did so. Immediately 1 had a
talk with the driver of the bus. He informed me that the same thing had
happened Oh a number of occasions"
About four weeks ago l witnessed another car passing a bus. On that
it was my W children that l called to get o ut of the way of the fast
travelling automobile. They did not see the speeding car. Both we're Sheridan
county cars"
Sen. Angvicks experiences have undoubtedly been cen many times, not
only in Sheridan county but all over the state.
Death turks m the highways. Children must be protected. Sheridan coun-
ty motorists must obey that traffic rule or loss of innocent life will be the e
suit. 1t may be your boy or your girl crushed and mangled under the wheels
of a car driven by a reckless law-breaker.
The law has o been thoroughly explained. From now o n violaors
vioators to the state highway patrol. 1t may "a We al innocent life or lives
that are in his charge from the time they step into a bus until they have
aighed-and safely
Parents should caution children of the danger-for there will be instances
when the law will be violated, in spite of the ruling drafted for the safety of
children.

TWO men DIE In
CRASH ON HIGHWAY

Three Sheridan county men, George
Wessner, Guy Richwine, of Medicine
Lake, and G. R. Tyler, of Homestead
m~iraculously escaped injury when a
truck in which they were riding was
hit by a car driven by Elmer Twete,
of Crosby who was instantly killed in
the crash. The smashup occurred five
miles north of Williston Thursday
night.
Leroy Smithberg, member of a
Watford City CCC camp, in Twete's
car, died later at the hospital in Will
liston. c. A. Hess, former Noonan
banker, who was riding in the front
seat with Twete escaped with minor
facial cuts. The sedan, stripped of top
and seat is a total loss.
According to the Williston Daily
Herald the cause of the accident is
unknown. Mr.. Hess stated that the
party was returning to Crosby from
Watford City where they had picked
up Smithberg to take him to Noonan
to visit his parents. Hess said that
they passed three southbound cars in
quick succession before their machine
crashed with the cattle truck driven
by Richwine.
Williams county sherifs who ex-
amined the truck said that the ma.
chine was lighted in accordance with
regulations and had clearance lamps.
The passenger car struck the truck
on the front left corner after grazing
a front fender. The clearance light on
the side was smashed.
Truck Was Loaded
Richwine and his companion were
enroute home with a load of cattle
and stock feed.
