to appropriate money for the build

which has been going forward quiet
" for months, reached Q crisis Mon
day when Col. Louis Farrell, post
commander, received IN inquiry II he
could accept 100 men which the war
department wishes to assign to Fort
Loncoln on July !.
Col. Farrell said he would have to
answer In the negative unless provi-
sion could be made for additional
recreational facilities. All OF the
present buildings on the military re-
servation would be needed for hous-
Ing, he said, and he would not approve
Of the expansion unless this need were
met.
Quick Action Needed
This. together with the fact that
the effort to expand the post appar.

Read "0ur American
Dreyfus Case"

There must be no Communication OF
Tom Moneys sentence. The COVER
nor Of California should pardon him
and thus admit the states injustice in
holding an innocent man in jail for
nearly two decades.
This, in substance, is the conclusion
announced by the Inter Religious Com
mittee for Justice for Thomas J. Moon
ey in its recently published pamphlet,
Our American Dreyfus Case, a Chal-
lenge to California Justice"
The plan Of reactionaries to free
Mooney without a confession of in
justice by California should be blocked,
according to the publishers OF the
Mooney pamphlet. They point out
that the recent United States Supreme
Court decision in the Mooney case,
which threw the Mooney tangle" back
at California, has brought c%onsterna-
ton to the ranks of Californians op-
posed to justice for Mooney" Out of
this CONSERVATION, according to the
committee, has arisen the suggestion
from the interests that MONEYS sen
tence be committed.
Anything except justice seems to the
approved course in dealing with Mr..
Mooney" the publication committee
observes.
The publication committee includes a
long list of nationally known Protest
ants, Catholic and Jewish leaders, a
number OF whom are active in Los
Angeles and California circles, and
many from eastern groups. The chair
man Of the committee is the Rev. Aa-
ron Allen Hest, P. o. Box 1874, Holly
wood Station, Los Angeles, who will

quest.

First 1895 Buddy Poppy
To President

The first 1885 Buddy Poppy was
presented to President Franklin d.
Roosevelt on April "a at the White
House by seven-year old Charlotte
Louise Biddle, protege of the Veter-
ans Of Foreign Wars OF the United

Buddy Poppy sales.
The occasion was the official open
ing of the fourteenth annual Buddy
Poppy distribution, conducted by more
than $500 local units OF the V. F. w
in every section Of the country for
the benefit of disabled veterans and
their families.
President Roosevelt and his prede-

astically have endorsed the V. F. w,
Buddy Poppy campaign and its pur-
pose, according to Commander Gre
CORY, Butte Post No. l448, of this city,
which will be in charge Of the local
distribution of Buddy Poppies on Sat
urday, May rs.
Buddy Poppy proceeds are devoted
to three philanthropic purposes by the
local and national V. F. w. organiza-
tons, Commander Gregory said. One
cent from each Buddy Poppy sold is
devoted to the maintenance funds OF
the V. F. w. National Home, Eaton
Rapids, Mich, where the orphans and
widows of deceased veterans are cared
for. The remaining funds accruing
from the nationwide sale Of the Buddy
Poppies are divided between the or
CARNATIONS liaison service which as
sists disabled veterans in the estab-
hshment of government claims and
other legal matters in the Veterans
Administration, and local relief and
welfare work among disabled and needy
veterans and their dependent families
