House Bill No. IS furnishes
every PROOF that is necessary to
indict the representatives who
voted for its passage as traitors

pires to become dictator of

such action and will denOUnce
every member of the legislature
who SUPPORTED HB 65 as traitors
to their people and tools of the

and the Anaconda Copper Com
pany are in unison to enslave the
people of Montana, but the people
are determined to free themselves.
In addition to this there has
come to the front a statewide
demand for a referendum on this
infamous law, indicating that the
votes cast by spineless and sub
servient member of the house and
senate giving Ayers the power Of
dictatorship, were not in accord
ance with the will of the people.
Montanans are very patient ordin-
arily, but the anti-dictatorship
bee has stung them into action
and they will go call Of the way
to put the hobbies on the ambi-
tons of the governor.
These are signs which serve to
prove that Governor Ayers will
never enjoy a peaceful" dictator

logic and out Of step with demo-
cratic ideals" r. G. Tyler voted
against the bill in the House, but
the sniveling P. c. Peterson from
Westby supported Ayers and the
crooked corporation lobbyists.
Should the governor sign this
bill the taxpayers will have a
lively time keeping track of the
proceedings. There are two mem

the mighty voice Of the workers

Efficiency Increased
The Improvement that has taken
place in the results has been the
result not of any single advance in
technique, but gradual increase
Of efficiency, especially in organiza-
ton.
Today, radium and the X-ray are;
used as adjuncts to surgery. When
surgery was employed to removel
every vestige of cancer, the work.
was very extensive and corresponds
ingly dangerous. And even so, it,
was never complete. I remember,
once assisting a very fine surgeonI
in removing some malignant glands
in the neck. After the operation, a,
member of the family asked him III
he had got them all out. He point
ed out the hospital window to al
field, and said, II happen to know
that that field has been plowed and
sown with wheat. I have every
confidence that a few weeks from
today it will be covered with green
plants. And yet if I went over
there now I doubt if I could find a.
single Seed" !
That was his way of explaining
the difficulty under which surgery
labored in removing all malignant,
tissue in a given region. But ra-
dunn and the X-rays have a spe-
cialized "eye" for seeing cancer
cells and destroying them. It is
like the nose of a hunting dog. You
gaze over field and cannot see a
single quail. But by and by that
sensitive nose will lead you to a.
covey which eyes cannot make OUT
The best results are obtained
when teams, consisting Of pathol-
ogist, a surgeon and a specialist in
X-ray and radium, go to work on a
special part Of the body and COM
bat cancer there with all the re-
sources at the command Of scie1-.
tifc medicine.

trumps were INV drawn and three
spades were discarded on North's
setup clubs. The declarer there
fore made five on a contract in
which he should have been set.
Even though Vests third hand
bid might have been rather weak,
it was logical to assume that he
held some cards outside Of the dia-
monds. Hearts and clubs were &C.
counted for, so any side strength
held by West was evidently in
spades. East's correct procedure,
holding four diamonds himself, was
rot to encourage diamond leads but
to hope that by playing discour-
aging card West would switch to a
spade. Played in that way three
spades and two diamonds could
have been taken before the declarer
gained control.

CAFETERIA OPENED
FOR HIGH SCHOOL
First Lunches Served at
Noon Hour to Large Num-
Der of Students

The new cafeteria in the Hender
son high school was opened for the
first time today to serve meals to
students, and was understood to have
had a large patronage on its first
day.
superintendent e. M. Rollins said
today no permanent management had
been arranged for the place, but that
the city school board would probably
designate a lady tonight to take ac-
tive charge of the dining room.
A supply of food was stocked ear
lier in the week in preparation for the
opening of the cafeteria. Most of the
articles of food served to the chill
dren are sold for five cents a por-
ton, and tentative plans call for the
written notice of students earlier in
the day as to what they will have for
their lunch, SO that the proper a
mount may be prepared and on time
for the lunch hour.
Many children living in the vicinity
of the high school are expected to
continue to go to their homes for the
lunch hour, except on days when the
weather is very bad.

i. s. | STATISTICS
TOLD TO ROTAR|ANS
Club Shows Interest in
Fight Being Waged to
Maintain Traffic

Statistics and information of travel
on U. S. Highway No. 1, which ira
verses Henderson, were given last
aight at the regular weekly meeting
CT the Rotary club at the Busy Bee
dining room by ]. w. Jenkins.
The program was in charge of K.
=. S. Davis, who presented Mr.. Jen-
kins
The speaker stated that several
years ago, ninety pc cent of the
north-south tourist traffic travelled
over this highway, and now the per-
centage had dwindled to 40 per cent,
due to the fact that other highways
are making a bid for the traffic.
Mr.. Jenkins said No. 1 was select
I'd for it's military value, and that it
ran through more state capitals than
did any other highway. He quoted
statistics showing that tourists an
nually spent about $500, 100000 along
his highway for candies and sundries
$285 800 900 for cabin rent, hotels and
camp sites, $31O,8OO,OOO for gas and
oils $336,O0O,00O for meals, etc. He
stated the highway was 2,298 miles
long, and was one of the best marked
and safest and one with less tolls
than any of the north-south routes
The speaker also said that the Caro-
lima Motor Club has estimated that
tourist annually spent $100,000,O00 in
North Carolina.
The program was presented to the
civic group to interest them in the
fight being waged along this famed
highway to hold its traffic and the
JUNIOR Chamber of Commerce is spon-
soring the drive in Henderson. The
club will name a committee to aid
the local Junior chamber in it's fight
for the widening of the highway from
Henderson to Norlina.
In addition to the address, the Rot
airy sextet gave several musical selec-
tons.
Every member of the club was pre-
sent, with the exception of one, who
was out Of the city.

Conversion of the old passenger sta
ton Of the Southern Railway here in
to Legion hut and community center
doomed today as a probability after
the Henderson post of the American
Legion made an offer to the railroad
company to take over the property
and develop it. j. c. Cooper, comman-
der of the local post, said two Off
Gals of the railroad company were
here for a conference in the forenoon
and that they promised to recommend
the sale.
The site itself cannot be sold, be-
cause of bonded liabilities of the rail
road company constituting a lien that
could not be lifted, it was understood.
The station house, however, can be
sold, and the Legion wishes to make
that purchase, then to lease the site
