From His Trip to Washington
With Water Board Members
PWA Thing of Past.

Helena, Sept. 27-Public Works
Administration funds, and Rural
Identification funds for extending
existing projects, have been as
sured for Montana as a result of
conferences between Governor
Roy E. Ayers and members of the
Water Conservation Board with
officials at Washington, the gov
ernor announced Monday on his
return to the state capitol. Gov
ernor Ayers and Water Board Sec
rotary r. J. Kelly arrived in Hell
ena Sunday night at 10 o'clock
by airplane, after a stormy SIX
teen-hour trip from Washington.
Unless congress makes new ap-
ton to provide for additional
projects, Montana cannot look for
new approvals or new ALLEGATIONS,
governor Ayers said. President
Roosevelt's pronunciamento of
September 2lst, sounding the
death knell of Public Works Adj
ministration has compelled the
water board to revise that part of
its program that is based upon
federal grants and loans.
THE executive order of the
president, issued September 21st,
directing that no further alloca-
tions can be made on PWA prof.
ects, Notwithstanding their pre-
vious approval, limits PWlA work
to projects already under con-
struction and those for which
financial ALLEGATIONS have already
been made" Governor Ayers said.
There have been 16 projects
for which funds have been al
loted and which the water board
will build. Six of these have al
ready been completed. They are
Rock Creek in Carbon county,
Smith River in Meagher, the Liv-
ingston Ditch in Park, the Willow,
Creek in Madison and Gallatin,
the Park Branch canal in Park,
and the City of Conrad project.
Funds for five projects have
recently been allocated by PWA
and in our conferences at WASH
ington we received assurance that
the loan and grant offers are now
being prepared and will be fog
warded to the water board at an
early date. These projects are the
Upper MuSselshell in Wheatland
and Meagher, the Columbus Irri-
cation in Saltwater, the Nevada
creek in Powell, the West Fork of
the Bitter Root in Ravalli and the
Sidney Pumping plant.
The water board already has
entered into contract and sold
bonds on five projects now under
construction in addition to those
mentioned above. This agreement
provides that PWA makes grants
of As per cent of the construction
cost and the R. F. C. purchases
water board bonds for the re-
naming cost of the projects.
These five projects are Flint
Creek in Granite county, the Ruby
River in Madison. the Tongue
River in Rosebud, the Big Dry in
Garfield and Ackley Lake in
Judith Basin"
Various differences as to tech
nical policy that have existed be-
tween the water board and PWA
were happily settled during the
conferences, Governor Ayers be-
lieveS.

fected an understanding between

McCune; Leslie Funston of the

sympathy of the community m

mute testimonials of the esteem
in which he was held.

rection of the Bullis-C rilly Co.
Pallbearers were G. H. Butler, E.
Albert Steen, Harry Callahan, Tom
Enchoff, w. E. Mcdonald and w.

Modern Girl Could Teach Mother Bagful of Tricks

Take it from a women's college dean, the modern lassie is far su- perior to her mother and grand mother in Knowledge, experience and manner of handling herself.
 That's the opinion of Beth Gar vey, dean of women at Minnesota State Teachers College at St. Cloud Minn., who was a Juneau visitor Thursday night while the Prince Rupert was in port.
 And Miss Garvey should know for she annually handles 800 wo- men students.
 I'm just one of them" she says T can sympathize with their prob- lems and their ambitions. Because of modern co-educational institu- tions, the modern girl can establish a much better balance with the op- posite sex than women of my own age could"

WOMEN CATCH FISH; MEN TELL TALL ONES;
 ASK MIR. BERT CAIRO

The men may be able to tell the stories, but it was the women who caught the fish on the trip made yesterday by party of ten aboard Bert Caro's boat, the Umpquah.
 Sailing to the end of Douglas Is- land where fish were plentiful for the catchers of ability, Mrs. Lu Lis ton, Mrs. Drew Painter, Miss Helvi Paulson, Mrs Tom George and Mrs Bert Caro hauled in six salmon.
 MT. Lu Liston, MT Drew Painter, MT. Jimmy Barragar MT. Tom George, and MT. Bert Caro are re- ported to have caught a few five or six inch halibut. Even so, their record is inadequate without men, tion of the fact that the women would have had seven salmon, if MT. Caro had not dropped one when hauling it aboard.

The result of hours of devoted toll on the part of two young Juneau air enthusiasts, Keith Petrich n Richard Aiken, the model is a rep lica of the pride of the Alaska Air Transport cloud fleet, the Bellanca Skyrocket seaplane.
 Only about two feet long, the Totem, Junior, is faithful in detail to the original, even to the six, red leather-covered seats in the cabin and the instrument panel. Every rih is in place and the tiny ship is decked out in the same flashy blue

contradicting testimony, a jury
prepared today to decide the fate
of Brig. Gen. Henry H. Denhardt'
World War hero charged with
Staying his fiancee.
Evidence in the case was con-
cluded Saturday and only the clos

manned before the case was given
to the jury.
Denying the States claim that
he shot and killed Mrs. Verna
Carr Taylor on a lonely road last
November 6. the 60-year-old de-
PENDANT took the stand and re-
iterated his assertion that she
committed suicide in a fit Of de-
spondency.
Shortly before, defense attor-
neys had brought expert witnesses
who refuted scientific testimony
for the State that the gun which
killed Mrs, Taylor had been some
distance from her body when
fired.
Because of the conflicting &C
counts the defense was more hope
full. and Attorney W. Clark Otte
announced he would d e m a n d
either a flat conviction for muir
der or complete vindication for
his client.
