the devastating raids.
The japanese raiders. flying low

Forty persons were said to have

Volunteers were called out during
the raid to prevent panic-stricken

More than 100 bombs, many of them

their approval of the new club for
boys and girls recently started by
the Eddy Baking Company, which
provides that each child memorize
ten rules of safety. It is called the
Lone Ranger Safety Club and is
statewide in scope.
In the picture, John Muzevic, local
manager of the Eddy Baking Com

the first member in Butte. There
is actually no age limit to the per
sons who may join the club but

posed to memorize the following
rules, and sign the pledge:
I promise not to cross any street
except at regular crossings and to
first look both ways.

New Sandwich Shop
Most Modern in Butte

The Busy Bee Sandwich Shop
located at the corner of Main and
Mercury streets was opened by Mr..
John Mathison and Roy Williams,
both of this city. The manner and
methods used in undermining the
shop makes it one of the city's attrac-
tive eating places. The window
lighting effect is achieved entirely
by neon tubing of the latest design
and brilliance. The shop itself will
be lighted entirely by neon chrome
fixtures which are under process of
manufacture now. When this job
is complete it will be the first place
in Butte to use the new neon light
fixtures for interior illumination.
The shop will stay open "a hours
every day, featuring the finest in
dainty sandwiches and light break
fasts, lunches and fountain service.
This is one spot in Butte the public
shouldn't miss after the show or
dance.

ism.
The 1900 people who packed the
theater were full of underlined re-
sentiment against Hitler's bestial
treatment of the Jews; and they
were full of uneasiness and ill-con-
cealed fear lest such madness in
some way threaten the course of
their lives. They wanted to be re-
assured of the freedom, tolerance,
and justice inherent in the Ameri-
can form of government and in the
American way of life, They wanted
to r~eassert their belief in democracy
and their regard for human rights
wanted to flaunt their humanitarian
sentiments and their pride in being
free men like a banner in the face
of Hitler's insane and inhuman
pogroms.
I thought as I sat and listened to
the chairman's introduction that it
was a magnificent testimony to
mans unselfishness that so many
important persons should travel so
many miles to protest the persecu-
ton Of a minority group. Here was
something calculated to make a man
believe in the essential goodness of
his fellows.
After it was all over, however, 1
was back to earth again. There was
precious little genuine anxiety over
the fate of the Jews always except
ing Rabbi Berkowitz). The anxiety
was over the status quo Of capital
ism. These eminent speakers had
Travelled many hundreds of miles to
take advantage of a fine political
opportunity. What could be easier
than to blow up the plight of the
Jews into the size of a world
calamity, and then shout to the
faithful. "Stick to the good old tried
and true ways in these troubled
times. The constitution guarantees
that you + free men. The Ameri-
can form of government is the best
in the world. Be glad you have it
instead of fascism."
The implication that could hardly
be missed was; do not try to
change things now. Never mind
about higher wages and better So
cial security legislation and the high
cost Of r%earmament. Be glad you're
not a Jew!'
Montana's senior Senator made a
grand effort to recoup his low politi-
cal fortunes. Bishop Gilmore hewed
his church's official line with COM
plete intolerance and in a spirit
wholly lacking in compromise.
Young Mr.. Finlen performed some
sort of service by gathering all the
platitudes of the past decade in one
speech. Rabbi Berkowitz's voice,
though raised powerfully, was vir-
tually lost in the other uproar. After
all, what car Americans really do
about the Jews? Certainly not lay
aside the s%nobbishness and prejudice
and hatred that has been stored up
against them for many years.
It's too bad about the Jews, but
the boy wonders of capitalism were
the only ones on the Fox theater
platform who were taking full adj
vantage of their opportunity.
