nv GEORGE ROSS

New York, Sept. l8.-We doubt
that any dance craze has aroused so
many controversial claims 10 It's
origin as the Lambeth Walk.
Everybody seems to have thought
OF 1t first. Nearly everybody claims
TO have introduced II 10 America,
When the Black Bottom, the Susi-
q, the Big Apple and other terpsi-
chorean fads arrived here, there
never was much argument about
how they got Started-or by whom.
The Savoy ballroom In Harlem
claimed credit for several and no
detractors came forward TO deny IL:
and various parts OF the south
went uneonteSted for authorship
OF the others,
But It's different with the Lam
beth Walk. Though II was said
10 have been born In England last
season. along came n horde OF
claimants who insisted that the
Lambeth Walk was seen In New
York musical comedy % years
ago.
A correspondent of ours In
Pittsburg writes that the Lam
beth Walk first saw the day OF
light around the Golden Triangle
and citizen OF Memphis, Tenn,
has written In 10 tell us that the
Lambeth Walk enjoyed Its gene
sis In the deep south.
Far be II from us 10 serve as
arbiter In the matter. We hope
the schism Is over soon and the
Lambeth Walk wends It's weary
way toward oblivion. We don't
dance, anyway.
Light of Heaven
A friend OF ours recently broused
amidst q science exhibit In Boston.
One goth century gadget par
ticularly struck his fancy and he
writes us about 1t. It Is an at
tachment, he says, for an automo-
bile dashboard, and 1t operates a
little light hooked up to the accel-
orator. When the autoist Is lollilg
along at IS m. p. m, this bulb
flashes white, and at 20 m, p. m, 1t
turns to a pale green. Between
20 and so m. p. h., 1t remains
static in color.
But let the man at the wheel
step on the gas and breeze along
at so and they new device will re-
lease a wedge in a tiny music box
which will play out Nearer My
God to Thee!"

REVEAL DETAILS ABOUT
BENTONITE PLANT HERE
To Be Most Modern In u. S. Dust
To Be Entirely Eliminated BY
Special Equipment

B. M. Mayfield and j. A. Cross,
who r in charge of the building
of the Bentonite plant here, were
in Hardin Tuesday making final
arrangements.
They left for New York City the
same day for a business confer
enee in connection with the fac
tory.
A ten-acre piece of land ad-
joining the railroad right of way
on the south, and on the east side
of the st. Xavier road will be the
site of the plant.
AS soon as Mayfield and Cross
return from New York the con-
struction Of the building will be-
gin. All plans and specifications
are drawn up, and it was stated
by the two men that it would be
the most modern Bentonite plant
in the United States.
1t will be probably the only
Bentonite factory in the United
States, that is completely dustless.
Processing the mineral usually
causes a great deal of dust not only
within the plant but on the out
side as we'll, but special equipment
in the building here will eliminate
this entirely.
Local labor will be employed as
much as possible, both in the con-
struction of the building and in
the factory, according to Mr.. May
field and Mr.. Cross. The trucking
of the mineral from Lodge Grass
to Hardin will give a number of
men employment.

LODGE GRASS WOMAN IN
CANCER CONTROL WORK

Mrs. w. A. Crosby of Lodge Grass,
who has recently been appointed
to serve as captain in the Woman's
Field army for the control of can
Ger was in Billings Tuesday
to obtain supplies and make plans
for the organization of women In
her community.
With the assistance of her lieut.
enants she will launch the five
point educational program which
the Women's Field army is spon-
soring throughout the nation dur
ing March.
Mrs. Crosby summarized the pro-
gram as follows: " To teach
every man, woman and child IN
our country that early cancer Is
durable, that general ANGER NOR
tally figures can and may be re-
duced only by the individual; (2)
To spread widely the cancer dan
ger signals and to cut the delay,
often fatal if cancer is present,
between the appearance of those
sins and a visit to aphysician; 90
To emphasize the great Importance
of a complete annual physical ex-
animation by a competent physi-
clan; az To interest men and
women in all aspects of the can
Ger problem: Diagnosis and treat
ment, research and related prob
i5ms, the needs Of underprivileged
sufferers from the disease: (5) To
enlist during the month Ct April
as many women and men rs pos
sib.e in the support of the Wo-
mems Field Arms. The enlistment
fee dollars are needed to carry out
educational work. When the above
program is satisfactorily financed,
other projects selected and ap-
proved by the leading nicer au-
thorities in the state may be laun-
ched and supported.
Mrs. Crosby enumerated five
danger signals which may mean
cancer and are important enough
to warrant a visit to a physician:
On Any persistent lump or thick
ening. especially in the breast; ~
Any irregular bleeding or dis
charge from any of the BODY OPEN
!ngS: ~ Any sore that does not
zeal particularly about the mouth,
l!pS or tongue: AZ Persistent in
dieeStion; t5) Sudden changes in
the form or rate of growth Of a
mole or wart.
She urged Big Horn county
peOnle to remember that early
ANGER is durable; that delay in
seeking treatment for suspected
conditions is often fatal if cancer
is present: that diagnosis of can
Ger is a matter for a trained ply
stefan, and that one should be-
ware of the five SYMPTOMS Of can
Ger appearing above.

Stop Indian
Relief Until
Hearing Held
commissioners Receive In junction
Tuesday; Hearing Set For
March %.

An injunction arrived here on
Tuesday morning from Helena,
restraining the County Commits
sioners and Robert Kruger, public
welfare administrator from issu-
ing any more direct relief to In=-
dams on reservations within the,
county.
The injunction is effective until
after a hearing by the Montana
supreme court March % TO decide
whether Indians residing on res
erVations are entitled to receive
aid from the counties.
The injunction was a result of
the petition Of Herbert A. Will
liams Of Big Hosn county in which
he %contended that Indians are
wards of the government and
should be cared for by federal
funds. He stated that there are
approximately $500 Indians on the
Grow and Northern Cheyenne re-
servations, which make w 81 per
cent of the county's land area.
Williams alleged that the Big
Horn county poor fund would be
depleted if grants were made to
the government charged.
Officials of the reservations ap-
peared before the state welfare
board last month and were infor-
med that Indians were eligible to
receive aid under the terms of
Montana's public welfare law.
Though Attorney General H. J.
Freebourn has ruled that Indians
are entitled to receive benefits un-
der the act, it will be the first
time the question has come before
a Montana court.

HOLD CONSERVATION
MEETINGS IN COUNTY

A series of meetings has been
scheduled by the Agricultural Con-
servation association of Big Horn
county and the County Extension
service for the purpose of explain
ing the 1888 conservation program,
which is based upon the 1888 con-
s%ervation bill passed recently by
congress and signed by the presi-
dent.
Many changes have been made
in the set-up under the new act
and it is very much different from
the program which was planned
and explained last fall.
In many respects it has been
simplified. Additional features
have been provided through the
new law which provides for wheat
being made a special crop with
certain limitations and require
ments for compliance under the
program. Wheat allotments are
part of the total soil depicting al
lotments and applys to farms on
which wheat has been seeded for
harvest in M or more of the last
three years. Allotments will be de-
termined for all farms in the
county by the county committee.
This is the total soil depicting al
lotment less the individual crop al
loWance and sugar beet acreage.
Big Horn county farmers will re-
ceive payments for not exceeding
the soil depicting acreage allot-
mentS and for achieving soil
building and restoration land
goals.
1t is urged that every farmer in
the county attend one of the
scheduled meetings which will be
held as follows: Decker-Bumbaca

News
A Brief Summary of Today's State,
National and World
News

The news of the week has cen
tered about Hitler's daring Aus
trian move, and its results on the
already difficult paths of Europ-
can and World diplomacy. Friday,
German troops marched into Aus
tria, and in a bloodless coup, der
fuehrer became leader of Austria
as well as Germany. He proclaim
ed himself protector" of the Ger
man speaking people in Austria,
and it was explained that the
move was made because of the
plebiscite announced by Chancel-
lor Kurt Schuschnigg.
~Schuschnigg resigned, and was
placed under protective" arrest.
He is still in custody of the nazis.
Arthur Seysz-Inquart, Austrian
cabinet member and personal
friend of Schuschnigg's was nam
ed chancellor, and later, when Hit
Ter proclaimed Austria a province
of Greater Germany" he was
given the position of governor. He
has been known for some time as
a strong nazi sympathizer.
Prominent Jews in Vienna and
other parts of Austria either at
tempted to flee the country or
committed suicide. Many who tried
TO leave were apprehended by nazi
troops at the frontier.
In England grave concern for
the peace of Europe was felt at
Hitler's sudden move in Austria.
Though no action was taken in
regard to the Austrian coup, it
was feared that there would be
serious consequences if the Ger
man leader attempted to extend
his authority into Czechoslovakia.
Latest indications were of a seri-
Gus disagreement in the cabinet
regarding future foreign policy in
Great Britain, and it was rumored
that a new cabinet, in which all
political groups would be repre-
sented might be formed.
In Italy, Mussolini stated that
the Austrian incident served
merely to strengthen the Rome
Berlin axis, and indicated that the
Italians and Germans still saw eye
to eye in political matters. In re-
gard to the reported stationing
of nazi troops on the Italian
frontier at Bremen pass, II Duce
stated that Italy held her borders
to be sacred, and not tolerate any
advance into italian territory.
However such a possibility was re-
mote.
