Musical Glasses Beinq
Added 10 WpA Adult
Education Program

Plans are being made for classes in
music appreciation and instrumental
music under the auspices of the WPA
Adult Education program. These
classes will be held in the old Butte
high school building and will be
conducted by Mr.. Alfred Mueller,
former student in European Con-
servatories, a member of the Butte
Male Chorus, and teacher of piano
and violin.
The purpose of these classes is to
offer supplementary aid to the peo-
pie who are interested in furthering
their musical education. Most of this
music work will be conducted along
class room lines. 1t is hoped that
choruses, quartets and small musical
units will develop out of these
classes. Mr.. Mueller's method en-
phasizes the love and understanding
of good music and the individual joy
derived from group participation in
these classes.
Mr.. Mueller will meet with those
interested in enrolling in any of
these classes all this week in the
principals office on the first floor
of the old Butte high school. Those
interested in registering in these
classes are asked to meet with Mr..
Mueller in the afternoons from 2 to
4 and the evenings from 7 to 9, every
day except Saturday and Sunday.
All those who have an interest in
any form of music and who may
care to join these classes, are invited
to confer with Mr.. Mueller at these
times.
Mr.. Mulholland, supervisor Butte
WPA adult education, stresses the
fact that the classes are for people
interested in music. No special
training in music is required for
entering these classes. No fees are
charged, but enrollees are to furnish
their own instruments and music.

MARTINS WAR ON REDS


DETROIT. - (FP) - Pres. Homer
Martins reported war On all radi-
Gals in the United Auto Workers,
declared to newspapermen in New
York, is regarded in Detroit as
probably the prelude to a negotiated
settlement of the unions civil war.
1t is believed here that all five sus-
pended international officers will be
reinstated because of the pressure
for peace brought upon both the
Martin and Frankensteen fa%ctional-
lists by the local unions. Martin has
not yet brought formal charges.
The temper of the membership
was revealed by a proposal in a
Detroit local that all "a inter
national officers and board members
be dumped and put on WPA, their
places to be taken by union stewards
out of the shops. There vas much
laughter and applause but a more
automatically worded peace-with-
o~ut-victory resolution was finally
adopted.

{. Helena 20. Demands
Staggering Wage Re-
dudion Of Employees
Union On Strike.

The American Smelling and Re
filming Company of East Helena has
demanded of its employees an ex-
cessive reduction in wages which the
local union No. Y, affiliated with
the international Union of Mine, Mill
and Shelter Workers, refused and
went out on strike to prevent. The
company says it is willing to nego-
tate with the union, but only if the
workers will accept a reduction in
wages of so cents a day. Officers OF
the union state that living conditions
in Helena prohibit such lessening OF
wages at this time.
1t is reliably reported that officials
of the union are in correspondence
with Harry Hopkins, national ad-
ministrator of the WPA, Congress
man Jerry J. O'Connell, and Senator
James E. Murray in order that the
WPA quota may be increased to $50
to take care of striking smeltermen.
In fact, Congressman O'Connell, re-
Gently in his speech in Helena, stated
that he would attempt to get the
quota increased to that extent. Latest
reports indicate that the company
has offered a 30-day agreement, pro-
yiding for a 50-cent reduction with
the understanding that negotiations
NAV be reopened with a 10 days
notice for resumption of the old
scale or an increase in wages. The
union countered with a proposition
that the men keep the same wages
but, if the market price of Lead
should go below $3.50 a hundred, the
union will agree to negotiate Their
for a reduction in wages.
The company spurned the offer Of
the union and in reply stated thai
the New York office was not inter
ested in the high cost of living II
the Helena community, but that the
SO cent per day reduction must take
place. After this ultimatum came
from New York and after the cal
lousness of the New York office wa
shown to the workers, the men de
cided to go on strike.

SUGAR BEET INDUSTRY
PROVIDES WORK FOR
MANY OTHER MEN

Information available at the Butte
Public Library shows that all over
the world, during prosperity and
hard times, sugar beets produce
more income per acre, more labor
per acre, and support more people
than other crops.
If Montana citizens were now liv-
ing in Germany they would be in
~terested in the general orders given
out by the government demanding
increase in sugar beet acreage. The
government points out that sugar
beets produce an average of 5,287
pounds of dry digestible substance
per acre; with potatoes less than half
that amount, 2,4O6; and wheat, rye
and oats producing only a third to a
fourth as much food as beets.
Benefits of the sugar beet 60 be-
yond the farmer and factory workers
producing the sugar. The $1,000
acres of beets now growing in the
Billings territory of the Great West
ern Sugar Company mean additional
rail crews to handle the harvest de-
liveries, supplies, sugar, coal, etc.
Approximately $950,000 gross rail
revenue, from which wages will be
paid to additional workers of Bill
lings, Laurel, Livingston and other
points, arises from the Great West
ern crop this year.
Beets mean work for coal miners
Fully $4,000 tons of Montana coal
will be burned by the Billings fac
tory this year, and large quantities
of limerick, quarried by Montana
workers at Sappington, according tC
James r. Mason, manager of the
Billings factory.
Illustrating the value of beets II
maintaining payrolls and farm in
come, Mr.. Mason cited a recent sur
vey made during depression years
on an important beet-growing area
in Great Western territory. Twenty.
three per cent Of the irrigated lane
was in beets, as compared with n
per cent in other crops; yet this rela.
lively small acreage of beets pro.
duced fully go per cent Of the tota
return from all crops, based on off
cial figures of the Bureau 0.

Beets, according to Mason, help t.
maintain a larger population thar
could be supported by other crops

he pointed out that development o

tories in twenty-five towns had beer

nant groups control politics and in
dustry to their own ends. Nearly
any high school youngster can tell
you glibly what tiny fractions of the
nations population controls what
vast majority Of the nations wealth.
Indeed, the disproportionate distri-
button of wealth is so common a
part of our small talk that many of
us tend to pay little attention to the
matter. We tend to be too easily
consoled by the thought that the
richest men give most of their money
to charity and to educational and
scientific institutions, or by the
thought that wealth will just nat
urally end up in the hands Of a few
no matter how you divide it.
The primary tasks of popular edu-
cation, then, both of youth and
adults, are to demonstrate who owns
these United States of America and
how they are actually governed
Mr.. Lundberg's book is a valuable
addition to the many greater and
lesser publications that are now
hacking at these jobs from all pos
sible angles. Portions of his ma
terial have been presented in other
books, but no one before him has
massed such arrays of facts behind
such fearless and unacceptable con-
illusions.

Mr.. Lundberg undertakes to account

Morgan-financed Republican presi-
dents, he turns in a report that in
cludes every secret m%aneuver, every
hidden interrelation, every nicke-
down to the smallest contributor tc

examined an almost unbelievable
mass of documentary evidence, in
Guiding all pertinent government re-
ports and findings Of Senate in
quiries. He does not omit to quote
from the Wilson-Page telegram Of
1917 that has been so carefully KEEP

sent by Walter Hines Page, Ameri-
can Ambassador to England, tC
President Wilson saying plainly thai

HEALTH C0-0pS SET UP
OF MEDI-
(00PERATIVES
Action Follows A. M. AS Failure
to Offer Constructive Leader
ship.

NEW YORK.-Cooperative health
associations which were rebuffed
when they called on the American
Medical Association at its recent
convention to assume constructive
leadership in the drive for volun-
tary health insurance have set up a
clearing house for information which
will assist other groups to form
medical cooperatives. The newly
organized association will be known
as the Association of Medical Co.
operatives.
In the public announcement of the
formation of the association, the di-
rectors declared; Recent events re-
lating to the peoples search for med
ical care have indicated that a ma
jority of the lay public and of the
doctors favor the development of
voluntary health insurance. So great
is the public's desire for health pro-
lection that fraudulent and unsafe
schemes are starting up throughout
the country. Some protection must
be offered to the public. We feel
that the ANA has shirked its re-
sponsibilities by refusing to take an
active part in assuring the sound
development of organizations tc
make medical care available to the
American people. In view Of this
default the cooperative medica.
groups have no alternative but tC
proceed along these lines"
The program of the Association
will include legislation authorizing
the formation of cooperative health
associations on sound lines; research
on problems of administration anc
organization; and the publication o.
a magazine, cooperative HEALTH
for members of cooperative medica
groups and the lay public.

To realize the fullest benefits of

With the canning season at hand,
increasing quantities of CIV will be
used. The sugar has more than met
every test and is guaranteed for
