FAMILIES MADE

H.. Hopkins Issues Order
To State Relief
Officials

WASHINGTON.-The govern.
ment is determined that the sub
sistence patch program shall ga
on. Harry Hopkins has just sent
out an order that all transient
families are to be looked on as
eligible to be moved to places pre-
pared by the government.
Such families whom they decid-
ed to be eligible will be cut off
relief and funds for moving will
be supplied from rehabilitation
monies. Then follows a set OF
regulations governing the moving
of the families from one state tc
another.
1t is very close step from say
ing that transient" families shall
be stuck on subsistence patches to
saying that all farmers in the
drought areas shall be eligible fol
the same treatment. The farmers
who are being moved will not have
much to say whether they want tc
be moved or not, or where they
would like to go, according to Hop
kins' order.
They viii only have lot to say
if they are organized to prevent
such edicts from being carried out.

Jerome N. Frank, AAA attorney.
and his assistant, Alger Hiss of
the Nye investigating committee

The reorganization of the AAA

Demand of Indians
For Dismissal of
Collier Is Refused

WASHINGTON.-The house
committee on Indian affairs last
week refused to grant the demand
of the American Indian Federation
for removal from office of John
Collier, commissioner of the Indian
bureau. However, a subcommittee
was appointed to investigate more
fully the charges against Collier
made by the federation.
The resolution of the Indian
Federation, asking Golfers dis
missal, also included the demand
that the Indians be given full cit
izenship rights, which were "grant-
ed" them in 1924. The committee
took no action on this demand and
ordered that the memorial "be
filed"
The report of the subcommittee
on the investigation of charges a.
gainst Collier will most likely ex-
perience the same fate-it will be
filed.
Only militant organization and
a united front of Indian, Negro
and white workers and farmers
will bring about recognition of In
dian rights.

$4,000 BUSHELS
OF SEED ORDERED
IN SHERIDAN Co

Orders for over $4,000 bushels
of seed have been placed with the
Sheridan county drought commit
tee up to Feb. II. Over 300 farm
ers have placed their orders thru
the county agent, M. J. Peterson.
Farmers who have arranged for
seed from neighbors after placing
their orders with the drought COM
mittee should cancel their orders
before Feb. 20.
Farmers who were unable to at
tend one of the five seed meetings
and who wish to place orders for
seed may do so through the county
agent or elevator managers who
have federal seed stored in their
elevators. This will save a long
trip TO rthose located at a dis
lance from Plentywood. Prices for
seed will increase lie per bushel
for storage at the end of each
month so that orders should be
placed before Feb. 20 if possible
to save this extra cost.
Farmers who wish to buy seed
from neighbors may consult the
list of "seed for sale" in the coun-
ty agents office. This is a SER
vice to aid buyer and seller of seed
to get together. The government
does not buy this seed but merely
lists it for sale.

Extension Agent.

1T is HIGH TIME
INVESTIGATION OF
RELIEF is STARTED

Dear Editor:
We know a bill has been intro
duced in the legislature by John
Ritch of LewistOwn calling for an
investigation of the relief setup in
Montana. 1t is high time this was
done.
Mr.. Prendergast of the local re-
lief office claims that the alloca-
ton for Sheridan county has been
cut since Feb. 5.
It looks as if the state relief
head, DR.. Butler, had discovered
that much of the money sent to
our county never reached the peo-
pie for whom it was intended
hence the cut.
However, now the shortage is
passed on to the people on relief
rolls instead of being taken from
the funds used otherwise in the
local office, as was probably in
tended.

Mr.. Rudi, farmer of Plenty

check Of $211 and $85 for cattle
ne had to sell because he had no

the money was used to fix I'D the

1t was the first cash the farmer

etc., from the Gamble Store; a

he bought some clothing and gas

relatives. The family lived on the
allotment check and the cattle mon

Turned Down Repeatedly
Not cent of the money was
spent for things unnecessary. Yet,
when he handed in a list of all
the purchases made to the relief
OFFICE, he was turned down re-
peatedly.
"They want receipts" Mr.. Rudi
states. And the big, old farmer
insisted that his statement and his
word should be good enough. "It
is hard to get receipts now after
three MONTHS" he says.
Rudi had turned in a list. Civ

most of the purchases had been

FARMERS DEMAND
WILLIAMS RELIEF.
HEAD Be FIRED
Resolution Protests til e
Slashing of Relief
Standards

WTLLISTON, N. D., Feb. o.
More than $50 workers and farm
ers met here today to discuss the
relief situation in Williams eoun.
ty' to protest the unwarranted
slashing of relief and to demand
the immediate removal from office
OF the new county relief admins
traitor, Earl Battien.
The following resolution was
passed and sent to State Relief
Administrator Williston and to
Harry Hopkins, federal admins
TRAITOR:
I'VE, the members of the Will
hstOn farm-labor council, protest
wholly unwarranted slashing of
relief in Williams county by the
new administrator, Earl Battien,
and vigorously deny any compari-
son of economic conditions in Cass
county with those of Williams
county.
1--WE protest cutting cash relief
without notice and hearing and
also protest refusals to issue re-
lief orders to cover emergencies
which must arise in any commun-
ity to care for the aged and in
firm.
eve charge Administrator Bat
ten has made false statements to
the public relative to his plans and
has made promises which he has
at once violated.
I'VE charge he has no compre-
hension of human needs and that
his attitude is destroying the NOR
ale of those on work relief as well
as causing internal suffering of
innocent women and children.
discomfort is rampant among
workers and is cutting production
on all projects and may precipit-
ate grave trouble.
For the above reasons, we de-
mand imme diate removal of Earl
Battien as administrator of relief
IN Williams county. We stand
ready to substantiate all of the
above statements"
Thorstenson, the previous admin
lstrator, had been removed to a
different county because the state
administration felt that relief ex-
penditures per capita in Williams
county were too high. Battien is
assigned to the JOB to slash down
the relief allowances, regardless of
need for human beings and live
stock.
