1t will not be so very long
before June and all its we'd
dings will be here again, and
even now the engagements are

t h t are very interesting,
though not much beyond the

much of the chatter over tea

First, we hear that a certain
young miss whose last name be-
gins with R, and who made her
debut last year, is engaged
unofficially-to a Navy lad.
AS to the second-the first

formal announcements concern
ing a young lady who cast
aside the glamor and whir1 of
the debutantes for the working
world this season, and the at
tentive Mr.. c., who has been
rushing her since last summer.
And that is all the rumors
for today.
Pretty Helen Tewksbury,
undoubtedly, was bent on
trousseau shopping yesterday
when we saw her downtown.
Her small black suede hat was
one of those beret models,
perked out over the face and
exposing a cluster of blonde
curls in the back. Her trim
little black kidskin coat had
a deep cape collar Of soft
silver fox.
Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph II.

WOMAN LEADER ACCLAIMS
UNION In u. S. S. R.

NEW YORK. - when | walked
through the Soviet textile mills and
saw the women workers fairly glow
ing with happiness and health | could
understand what il meant, and how
different conditions must be than in
the mills | have known all my life"
writes Pres. Mary Thompson OF the
Boston Women's Trade Union League
in the July issue OF Soviet Russia to-
day.
Mrs. Thompson, who has spent 20
years in textile mills in Scotland and
America, was a member OF the May
trade union delegation to the U. S.
S. R.
Mrs. Thompson reported that no.
where did She find the S~takhanov
movement had anything in common
with the speedup or stretchout systems
to prevalent in American mills. There
was no evidence of strain; workers are
examined by doctors periodically and
every p%recaution is taken to protect
them from over-exertion.
She was particularly impressed by
the role played by trade unions. THE
immense strength OF the trade unions
She writes, is everywhere visible, and
because Of their many and varied func-
tons you almost feel that it is the
unions which govern the country.
Women participate in the unions as
actively as men. | have never been
so glad about anything as about the
care they give children in the U. S.
S. r. Knowing what textile workers
children have to put up with elsewhere
when their mothers have to go out and
work, | car say that conditions for
workers children are better in the
Soviet Union than anywhere else il
the world

Former Governor Stewart Play
ed Into the Hands of
Corporations.
Continued from page y

the old days Butte was a happy camp.
Merchants and professional men were
prosperous and contented. Now they
are going broke-all because the work
ers are not able to support them. The
lack OF purchasing power in Butte has
impoverished our merchants and made
poor old Butte a sad and sorry looking
skeleton of its former self.
President Roosevelt and the New
Deal saved the miners from starvation
in the past three or four years. Pro
gressive legislation has been enacted in
the interest and welfare of the work
ers. The corporation press has be-
come frantic because the masses have
been getting a square deal under
Roosevelt. A desperate fight is on
hand to bring this to an end. The
former Governor Of Montana, who
brought Butte to its knees 20 years
ago, is to be sent to Washington to end
the New Deal. They need a man there
to look out for the interests of the cor
porations. His purpose will be to frus-
trate the efforts Of President Roose-
welt in carrying out his program OF re-
form and rehabilitation. Rosevelt's
efforts to bring about a fair and more
equitable distribution of earnings Of
industry are to be blocked. Sam Stew
art is the man to do the job.
Have yor noted the gum-shoe work
Of the last day for filing nominating
p~etitions7 Stewart stepped up to the
desk five minutes before midnight on
the last day for filing and slipped over
the counter his nominating petition
and now he is a full-fledged candidate
for the United States Senate and the
corporation press will bally-hoo his
great merits to the public.
Let the workers OF the Butte camp
study the situation. Their future in
terests and welfare are at stake.

r HALF

The curtain has practically dropped
on the first-half period OF Montana
State League play and %Freebourns
look like a cinch. Although they have
three postponed games to play, they
must lose them all to allow Great
Falls, W games behind the Attorneys,
a tie for the top berth. 1t has been a
great half and league play, considerably
improved we last year, beckons to
further improve as clubs swing into the
second half.
In the period just finished, fans saw
10 extra-inning games, five Of them
deadlocked at the end in a tie score,
necessitating playoffs. The climax OF
extra-inning tussels was the Free
bourn-Helena game OF June IA, the
locals winning in the thirteenth inning
by a 6-5 score.
By a curious coincidence, Free
bourns werc not high scorers. The
Attorneys accumulated only III runs
while Colored Giants slammed in lSl,
Great Falls $50 and Anaconda scoring
40. East Helena was low in the other
bracket %garnering only 81; Parks scor-
ing lis and Helena ITO. As proof that
the Attorneys had better chuckers only
90 runs were allowed on the debit side
of their scoring ledger, an average OF
only four per game. Much Of the
credit for the Freebourn margin is due
Pat Kenny, Sonny Hicks and Bagga
KLINE, who made up the pitching de-
partment. With the addition of Ma
riana to the bullpen crew, they look
even tougher in the s~econd-half.
Freebourns won six games by a mar
gin Of one run; three tie games were
played, two with Colored Giants, scores
6 to 6, and 2 to 2; while East Helena
also held them 2 to 2. The locals were
only shut out once and that in the
Colored Giant game OF July 4th. In
that game Freebourns had an edge in
hits, a to 3, but the Colored boys hits
were all good for runs. Two ten inning
games were played; Helena beating
Giants, IS to II, and Great Falls trim
ming East Helena 2 to /. Colored Gil
ants also played a thinning game with
Great Falls losing by a 10 to 9 score.
Two games between Parks and Ana
conda were deadlocked at the end OF
nine innings by a s-to-5 and a 7-to-7
tally.
