OUR MAIL BAG
EDITOR MONTANA OIL a
MINING JOURNAL:

We find in your Mail Bag a
letter from Jess H. Stevens advO-
eating a protective tariff on crude
oil for Montana, to be established
by act OF Congress
without consulting Edwin S.
Booth as TO the constitutiOnality OF
a protevtive tariff set up along state
/ lines by congress. let US admit for
the purpose OF argument that this
may be done. The thought leaves
us breathless. The Townsend Plan
is chicken feed alongside It. Ten
thousand tariff regulations, multi
piled by the forty-eight states can
not be comprehended by the ordin-
airy mind. Imagine the jolly little
wars we would have when the thing
gets going, just like the Balkans.
A state line tariff law, as long as
the dictionary, and powered by alb
sent minded professors and deserv-
ing politicians, would eclipse the
new deal like a fat man stepping
on a louise
In the specific case OF crude oil
and Montana however. there is room
for argument as to the wisdom OF
the plaH. We DuAA hSAN 6aeS
line than our crude will make, and
the customers might not like the
high tariff idea. Wyoming crude,
shipped into Montana, accounts for
quite a bit of business and employ
ment in the vicinity or Billings.
Some of the Midland Empire folks
wouldn't be so hot over having this
business driven back into Wyoming.
In my own very modest refining
operation at Roundup, we use no
wyoming crude; but / can see
where q few truckloads OF light |
crude from northern Wyoming |
might help the business in pinch.
on the whole, doesn't it seem
that we do best when the politicians |
leave honest business alone? Thomas |
Jefferson said the government |
should RESTRAIN men from iniuring |
one another, and leave them other
Perhaps Thomas was
wrong; perhaps some far away
college professor of politician can

Canadians Disappoin ted h Action or King EdlUard

The Church of England, while permitting remarriage of a divor- cee at the discretion of the clergy, frowns generally on such remar- riages. The king is the head of the church. and many in Canada feel he should not became a party to such @ marriage.
 Newspapers throughout Canada began publishing full accounts of the government crisis occasioned by the dispute over Mrs. Simpson Many Canadians previously had been informed of the situation through American newspapers and magazines, but the publication in Canadian newspapers put on every ones tongue the question "What will happen"
 No Dominion official would com lnent on the crisis, but a rumor that Canada would secede from the empire if the king married Mrs. Simpson was dismissed as entirely unfounded. Prime Minister Mac- kenzie King refused to discuss re- ports that the British cabinet had asked for the Canadian govern ments formal support of It's op- position to marriage to Mrs. Bimp- son.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-12-03

Montreal, Dec. 3.-(UP)-Can- adians in general seemed to be deeply disappointed today that King Edward has permitted his friend ship for Mrs, Wallis Simpson to involve the crown and the empire in such a crisis as now confronts them.
 So long as it was Just matter of friendship. many Canadians sided with the king. But on the question of marriage to Mrs. Simp- son, a majority, particularly in this section of the Dominion, seemed strongly against 1t.
 What this part of the populace hoped for most was Q fortnight announcement from the king that he would not marry Mrs. simpson. If he should insist on marrying her, 1t was taken for granted in most quarters that Edward would for- felt in a large degree the very high esteem In which he is held in Cam ada, which he has visited several l times.
 Canadian objections to . mar. riage with Mrs. simpson are based not on the fact that she is an American by birth, not that she Is "eommoneg," but that she has l been twice divorced.

 REAL KEYNOTE
Appears in London Times, "Thunderer" With Its
 Issue of Today

London, Dec. g. = (UP)-The newspaper editorial which set the keynote for the case of the British cabinet against the British king in the crisis over Mrs. Wallis Simpson appeared today in The Times-the "thunderer" of modern British his- tory.
 Its importance-warning the king that past monarchs were secure be- cause they were respected-lies in the Times's unique position.
 In crises like this the Times is made the organ of the government, and its editorials such as the one today are usually found to express directly the jew of the govcrnlnelv,
 The editorial said:
 '"rhe King and the Monarchy"
 "The remarkable address by the bishop of Bradford let loose a flood of comment yesterday in most of the newspapers of northern Eng land. Not only in Leeds and Brad- ford which were his immediate au- dience, but in Manchester. Noting ham, Darlington, and Birmingham there were anxious questions put forward independently by the local press about the occasion for the bishops appeal that the full signi- ficance of the coronation rite should be understood.
 "Nor was there any real doubt about the answer. These comments of great provincial organs whose influence on public opinion is too little recognized. were not directed toward a detail of the supreme his- toric religious act of consecration. They were not in the least con- cerned with the controversy be- tween two bishops on matters of ritual or dogma.

Reno Diuorce Case Is. City Court Problem
Thomas Haligan of New Milford Was Arraigned for Non-Support- Claims Divorce Obtained
 in Nevada-Validity Questioned

City court, for the first time in its history today, was confronted with the question of whether or not a Reno divorce can be held valid in this state. The question came up at the arraignment of Thomas Haligan, 62, one-ti;ne sweepstakes winner, of New Milford, on non- support charges brought by his wife.
 He Claims Divorce
 Haligan claims he has no obliga- ton to support his wife, since he secured divorce from her in Neva- da in June, 1883. Judge Edward Mascolo continued the case for two weeks for study. since the question of the validity of Haligan's divorce must be decided. Haligan. who is now employed as crossing watch man by the New Haven railroad. claims that he planned to reside in Nevada permanently whepthe went there to get his divorce. Under the law, If he went to Reno only for the purpose of gaining a divorce, and established a residence there only to secure his freedom, the decree is invalid in this state.

 The wife claims that Haligan has a large amount of money and pro- perty, while the husband says he is
