The Value of CCC Camps in Montana

Since the organization of Civilian Conservation
Camps in April. 1888. and up to the end of October
of this year. 1882 Montana boys have been enrolled
for work in these camps. During this period the Tn
tied States has paid to these boys and to their de-
pendents a total of more than three million dollars.
The regular month. pay for each boy is $4,000, of
which $500 is paid to his parents or dependents.
The remaining $500 per month is allowed the boy
for his personal needs in camp. In addition to this
cash payment. every boy in camp gets free board,
free clothing. medical attention, dental service and
some schooling OF a practical nature.
F~ifty-five OF the ~fifty-six counties of the state
have boys in CCC camps at the present time. A total
of twenty camps will be operated in the state through
the winter of 1937-3S. Ten of these camps are made
up of boys from Kentucky. and Ohio, and the remain
Ing ten are made up exclusively of Montana boys,
numbering in all just about 1900. The total mon
thly payroll for Montana boys and their parents and
denendents will therefore amount to approximately
$54. 600.
The greatest benefit resulting from the main
tenance of these camps is the advantages that it
afford to the boys themselves. 1t gives them the
opportunity to earn a monthly income by their work
in s%alubrious surroundings and are fed good whole
some food. The practical education they receive is

and dependents is of substantial assistance, and
reduces the relief load on the taxpayers of the
State.
In addition to the cash payments to the boys
and their dependents. the Government is paying out
large sums every month for food and supplies for
the camps. for supervision and other operating ex-
penses. The bulk of all money spent by the Govern
merit III connection with these camps is expended
in the state of Montana and results in a consider
abld stimulus to business along all lines during
twelve months of the year.
The supervision of enrolment for CCC camps
Is one of the functions of the State Department Of
Public Welfare.

WISDOM TEETH

The third molars, or wisdom
teeth, are particularly liable to
cause serious illness and even death
because OF the frequency with which
we have trouble in cutting them.
The complications most often arise
between the ages of twenty and
thirty but may occur at any time
after adolescence even into advanc-
ed old age. Men and women suffer
equally but in both sexes the trouble
is more often in the lower than in
the upper jaw. The most common
mishap is that only the front half OF
the wisdom tooth m through
and the gum forms a hood over the
back half Of the crown. Infection
creeps under this hood and danger
Gus germs thrive In this little cav-
ern Attempts to remove a wisdom
tooth while the gum around 1t is
infected may result in a fatal spread
of the infection.
Extraction of wisdom teeth is,
however, an easy matter If taken
in time. Abnormalities In the devel-
opment of the third molars can be
recognized by X-Ray examination by
the age of eleven years; that is to
say several years before they are
likely to cause any trouble The time
will probably come when careful
parents will seek a dental X-ray
Of their children at this age to be
sure that all is well in order to for
stall dangerous maldevelopment.
The dental surgeon who recognizes
abnormality at the age Of eleven
will continue to make x-ray observ-
ations OF the tooth until it's growth
reaches a stage when preventive
surgery can be undertaken with
safety and a minimum of inconven-
ience to the patient.

The Workers Income Tax

There seems to be a general misunderstanding
about the Old Age Pension funds collected by the
Federal Government under the Social Security Act.
Many people are expressing surprise that money col
lected from workers and employers by the tax Of
/ per cent, from each on wages and salaries is going
into the general fund of the Treasury and being used
for miscellaneous Government expenses, instead of
being set apart in a special fund for the purpose of
paying pensions to retired workers who have paid in
the money.
That, however. is precisely what the Social Sc
curity Act calls for. The Old-Age Benefit tax is
specifically described in the law as an income tax.
1t had to be an income tax. under the Constitution.
which forbids any direct tax except on incomes or
inheritances. And all taxes have 10 go into the gem

This is the first year of this income tax on

The Christion Minister. Lesson
for November 14th. | tim. 1916.
Golden Text: | Tim. Ala.
There is a widespread feeling that
the Christian minister has fallen
upon evil days. 1t is the fashion to
pity the parson as one graphing
with an impossible task in the face
of apathy and hostility.
That this is no new attitude is
proved by the arresting little paint
ing. "The Sermon by Lucus van
Leyden. an early Dutch artist. We
see a large church, with pillars and
arches, its sombey tone in strong
contrast to the bright, sunny world
without. There Is a service in pro-
gress with a languid congregation
of 90 or 80 who seem to be paying
no attention to the thin, other
worldly preacher. He is talking very
earnestly from a high point which
appears to separate him from his
hearers who are all facing every
direction except toward the pulpit.
An old lady is deep in sleep, and
another woman is doing. The
preacher appears to be a real man
of God, but no one, Is either look

ing at or listening to him.
1t is never safe, however, to gem
eraliZe. over against this scene of
futility one thinks of the amazing
ministry of DR.. Harry Emerson Fos-
dick in the Riverside Church. New
York. Packed every Sunday fifth
thousands of attentive worshippers,
and carrying on a varied program of
splendid usefulness to a multitude
of folk in all classes of society, this
great church testifies to the peren-
NAL appeal of the Christian preach
err, and the resourcefulness of the
Christian Church in adapting itself
to new conditions.
The fact is that 10 one has a
happier task than the minister serv-
ing a congenial parish. He is an
ointed above his fellows with the
oil of g~ladness. St. Pail knew this.
His advice to Timothy is warm with
the glow of a valiant preacher in
love with his noble profession. Our

1t was designed to punish a few
large corporations which had built
up large reserves for future expan-
sion, but whose controlling manage
ment had incurred the ~displeasure
OF the Administration. The econ
omic justification was the assump-
ton that, by paying out SURPRISES
in dividends. the incomes of stock
holders would be increased, and
could be taxed at higher rates, thus
bringing additional revenue into the
Treasury. 1t was estimated that this
tax would produce $500, 100000 a

1t not only has failed to produce
anything like the anticipated rev.
enue but, according to the hundreds
of business men, industrialists, in
vestors, bankers and economists
who have appeared before the sub
committee of the House which is
studying tax matters, the undis-
tributed profits tax has proved a
serious obstacle to business i'm
proyement and expansion.
The way in which all business en-
terprises have developed In the past
is by blowing back" profits into

revisions and amendments in those

In the past year the nation has been fortunate
in having had no major disaster to call for the serv-
ice of the Red Cross For that everybody should be
thankful.
But because we have not had an emergency to
face is no excuse for failing to renew our annual
membership in this greatest of all relief agencies
Year In and year out the Red Cross ministers to
the distressed, in countless ways which call for con-
tinuous expenditure of money. The only money the
Red Cross has is contributed by the people. in res
ponse to the annual Roll-Call or to special emergency
appeals.
The usefulness Of the Red Cross lies not alone
In the services which it renders, but also in the
promptness with which they are rendered. Prepar-
edness is its guiding rule. 1t must keep its emergency
equipment and supplies constantly stocked and ready
for use, its skeleton field force ready for instant mob
iization. When the call for aid comes it comes sud.
denly and without warning The Red Cross must be
ready to meet it with a full treasury.
The Roll-Call is now on. every home in America
should have the emblem in the window.

its extra session in an atmosphere
of political confusion and dissension
which subjects any attempts to fore
cast results TO heavy discounts. The
best opinion here is that the acts
OF the special session will be govern
ed more by the members own judg-
ment of national needs than by the
desires of the Administration for
the further promotion of social and
economic reforms.
Business Troubles First
The first need. as many leaders
in both Senate and House see it, is
to encourage business. There are
indications that the Administration.
too, is keenly aware of this need.
When he called Congress in special
session President Roosevelt did not
list tax law amendments in the i'm
mediate program of legislation.
Farm Legislation was No. 1. But
that was several weeks ago, and in
the interval a threatened business
depression has appeared, with breaks
in the stock markets and other signs
of business unrest.

to not laugh it off but make a care
full study of the facts.
Taxes Are Blamed
The first remedy upon which
there seems to be wide agreement
among the members of Congress is
for repeal or amendment Of tax laws
which have been found, in practice.
to slow down the operations of BUSH
ness and industry.
The two tax laws most severely
criticised by business men are the
capital gains tax and tax on undis-
tributed corporation earnings. The
capital gains ia xis of pre-Roosevelt
origin. 1t taxes as income certain
increases in an individuals capital.
If a man buys property, tangible or
IN securities, his profit, if any and
beyond certain exceptions, is taxed
as income for that tax In
higher brackets this tax is so steep
as to amount to practical confisca-
ton.
Why The Spectator
This is naturally discouraging to
men who usually risk funds TO
launch new enterprises. Such risks
are necessary. without proof that a
new business will be profitable. the
public cannot honestly be invited TO
invest. If the specializing investor
loses, the public has been safeguard
ed. II he wins, he expects adequate
rewards in the form of profits.
The other tax which is blamed
for a large share in the business re-
cession, the undistrituted profits
tax, was written into the 1896 Rev
enue Act at the urgent insistence Of
the President. 1t provides that cor
porations earning profits in any
year must distribute them to their
stock holders as dividends in that
year, instead Of holding them as re-
serves or using them to expand or
to pay off bonded debts. Corpora
lions falling to make such distri- |
buttons are taxed up to as high as
26 per cent of the amount.

surplus tax was two-fold. In part

All in all, the announcement added
spice to a political situation which
was getting bit boring. Whether or
not things will begin to pick UP at
once remains to be seen.
Nobody who knows Frank Hancock

posite course in the coming race. He
can call himself an independent Ii

generally agreed that his sole chance
of beating Bob Reynolds is to at
tract the anti-Roosevelt and anti-New
Deal strength to his banner, while at
the same time casEing in on some OF
his purported liberalism.
The Hancock record shows a gen
aral support of the President, but al
so indicates that he can, on occasion
stray far from the reservation of party
regularity in his congressional votes
All in all, the Hancock announce
ment creates SO many angles that ii
will be some time before any really
intelligent prognosticating can be
done.

EXPLAINS PLANTING
OF PINE SEEDLINGS
Should Be Put Far Enough apart III
Best Results Are Desired,
Holmes Declares

Raleigh, Oct. 14-Pine seedlings
should be planted in rows from six to
eight feN wide and about the same dis
lance apart, if best results are to be
obtained, according to State Forester
J. S. Holmes of the Department OF Con
servation and Development. The best
distance for loblolly and short leaf
pine is seven feet, Mr.. Holmes believes,
unless the landowner wants to get an
unusually heavy stand, when they
can be planted in rows only six feet
apart.
To get the best results in the plant
ing of long leaf and slash pine seed
lings, the rows should be eight feet
apart and the seedlings spaced at in
tervals of eight feet, Mr.. Holmes said.
The long leaf pines should be planted
only in those sections of the state
where they grow naturally or where
they originally were indigenous, Mr..
Holmes said and which includes vir-
tually all Of the coastal plain region
Slash pine also grow well throughout
this same region.
Because Of the growing demand for
pulp wood in the state as a result Of
the establishment of new pulp mills
and heavy buying Of both pulp wood
and timber tracts by pulp companies
outside the State, large number OF
landowners are showing interest in
the planting of timber plantations
