New Penal Wharf
Site Opposed by
HiI|crest Citizens
Association Approves
Sheppard Bill Study
Of Liquor Stores

The Hillcrest Citizens Association
last night opposed the proposed
erection of the new District penal
wharf on the west side of the Ana
costa River at the foot Of Virginia
avenue Sc.
I'VE now have the District jail
In Southeast Washington" H. l..
Grampp, chairman of the Member
ship Committee, said IN introducing
the resolution. 1--WE do not want
any more penal institutions"
The Sheppard bill to authorize an
investigation of the package liquor
business in the District to determine
the advisability of establishing mu-
nicipally operated dispensaries was
supported after sharp debate on the
merits of District-oWned stores.
Tax Factor Cited.
Mr.. Grampp, author of the reso-
luton, charged that the present sys-
TEN encouraged liquor drinking by
children, while others said the mu-
nicipal stores would give the District
the store profits and lessen the need
for additional taxes.
DispensarieS were attacked, how
ever, as depriving the District of the
liquor store taxes and as throwing
out of employment the workers in
the private stores.

Christian Science Lecturer
Speaks al Fourth Church

A lecture on "Christian Science,
Its Compassionate and Loving Min
istry," was delivered last evening by
Charles v. Winn, c. S. B.. of Pasa-
dena, Calf, in Fourth Church of
Christ, Scientist. The lecturer, who
is member of the Board Of Lee
tureship of the Mother Church, the
First Church of Christ. Scientist,
Boston, Mass, was introduced by
John M. Hall, first reader of Fourth
Church.
Mr.. Winn said, in part:
1.-THE most important business in
which We are engaged is thinking.
The right thinker is engaged in
the most profitable business in the
world. In our human affairs we
naturally invest in those enterprises
which will bring us right return
and afford us the maximum of
security and safety. The right
thinker is engaged in a lofty enter
prise whose returns never fail him,
but are multiplied MANIFOLD. His
capital consists of right ideas and is

and cannot be impaired.
"The basis for all true thinking is
most beautifully set forth in the
Christian Science text book, Science
and Health With Key to the Scrip
tures,' by Mary Baker Eddy, on
page S35, where we read, Mind is
the divine principle. love-" How
clearly this sets forth the founda-
ton for that righteous thinking
which alone brings peace, JOY, sue
cess, health and holiness! Since
God is mind and infinite love, then
every true thought must express
love. Every true thought origi-
mates in God, divine mind, and must
express Him. If any thought does
not come from God. divine love,
then 1T is utterly lacking in truth,
power and reality. AS we entertain
those thoughts that reflect God.
divine love, the supreme power of
the universe is on our side and we
are on Gods side"

am not sniping at any public or
private agency, nor am I diScredit-
ing the efforts that many of our
banks have put forth, but which,
unfortunately, for the most part,
have proved futile. I am simply
asserting that, in my judgment, a
definite need for easier credit does
exist and that it is incumbent upon
Congress to recognize that demand
and to effectively deal with 1t at the
earliest possible date.
Too many small shops and plants
are closing their doors; big business
in many instances Is growing bigger;
our small communities are directly
suffering. Mass production is not
frequent in small industry. They
should be healthy little units, pro-
viding gainful employment In vii
lagos and hamlets throughout the
United States. The trend is in the
opposite direction and I, for one,
do not think it is a salutary trend.
1t is definitely our job to help cor
rect the ills of small business.

tional plants and for the purchase of
new machinery so that industry may
expand and maintain employment,
sary in order to provide for the
proper maintenance and moderniza-
ton of existing plants, so that busi.
ness may be in position to continue
the employment of those who are
now at work.
To secure the full benefit of capital
investment, a private business enter
prise which will use capital is re-
quired, as we'll as a credit mecha-
risrn which will make it available to
business. It is at this point that
small business enterprises are of vast
significance to our national economy. !
New enterprises are usually small |
units and their financing sets into
motion a spiral of economic activity
which encompasses wide area and |
brings into play other business enter
prises. Healthy small business en-
terprise, adequately financed, is
essential to the stability of our whole
national structure.
The small businessman is, by ma
t1re, adventurous. His organization
Is relatively flexible. He can take
chances. He likes to generate new
methods for increased profits. We
depend upon him for the continued
progress and development of our
industrial and economic system If
he is i'll from financial malnutrition,
our entire economic system suffers,
likewise.
have said that there is an in
9 creasing demand by small business
for intermediate capital-a demand
that IS not being met by either p-i-
vate or existing public agencies. I
have mentioned that this demand Is
reflected in the numerous applica-
tions for industrial advances and
participations being fled with the
r. F. G. The Federal reserve banks
are likewise reviewing hundreds of
loan applications. I repeat that the
extension Of $4,000, 900 or even $780,
100000 annually by these pubic
agencies has been helpful. They
have not, however, been able to
provide the necessary credit that
small business so badly needs.
Whether the law Is not sufficiently
liberal or whether the administering
officials are overly conservative is
beside the point. The fact is credit
needs are not being satisfied and
some means must be found to
accomplish that purpose.
Small business concerns repre-
sent desirable channel through
which funds for additional capital
investment may flow, thereby en-
abling us to employ more people and
to keep at work those who are now
employed.
Vital National Problem.
I consider the solution to this
problem Of adequate financing for
small and intermediate sized busi-
ness most vital to our national well
fare. For this reason, without at
tempting to destructively criticize,
I am frankly disturbed by the lack
of adequate financial mechanism on
, the part Of public agencies and of
existing banking institutions. Some
thing is drastically wrong when. at
q period when bank deposits are
close to a record high, the small
businessman is unable to depend
= Upon his banks for his credit and
capital requirements.
A source of capital must, there
Z fore, be brought into existence which
can be tapped by new and small
enterprises which, even though they
may not yet have established high
credit ratings, do nevertheless con-

unless their state contributions for these years ar epaid before the 60th day after the enactment of the amendments. (Contribu- tions must be paid to the State funds on or before October 8, 1939.)
 If contribution for these years were not paid into the State funds before the due date for filing Federal returns on Form $40 and you have been assessed and paid the full Federal tax under Title TX of the Act. you may file claim for refund of the 90% credit, provided, the State contributions are paid on or be- fore Oct. 8, 1889.
 The amendments provide for re fund, without interest, of any tax (including penalties and in terest) which has been collect ed, for which credit is allowable as stated above. Claims for such refunds should be prepared on Form 843, copies of which are available at the office of the Col lector, Tacoma, Washington.

Thor w Hendrickson, Acting Collector of Internal Revenue has been advised by the Commis sioner of Internal Revenue of cer tain amendments to the Social Security Act, enacted by the re cent Congress affecting the pay ment of Social Security taxes. Gen of these amendments relates to credit against the Federal Un employment Insurance Tax, im- posed by Title TX of the Act, and provides substantial liberaliza- tion, and grants relief to taxpay- CTS who failed to pay their con tributions to the State on time.
 Refunds on the Federal Tax for 1886, l937, and 1888, will be granted to those employers who failed to receive credit for State payments for such years because the state payments were not made before the due-date for fl ing the federal returns. Employ CTS will not receive this refund

First, second, and third prizes were given in all the above mentioned garden pro ducts A grand prize was given for the best display of garden truck. This was awarded to FL vira Olson, a full blooded Eskimo.
 Plans are now under way for next year. They are making their garden plots larger and plan to fertilize them this fall with the entrails of the herring which they cacth for food, for the home and while on the trail.
 You will hear more about the Golovin Eskimo Garden Show next year. It will be bigger and better.

on The
Death Of {. MaIIoy

Whereas, in the death of Charles
Malloy, the organized labor move
ment of Silver Bow county has lost
one of its ablest leaders;
Whereas, he having guided as
president the destinies of the Trades
and Labor Council through n OF
its most critical periods in a manner
which shall ever live to his credit,
and
Whereas, by his personality, dis
position and character, he has en-
deared himself, not only to mem
bers of organized labor but to the
community as well, therefore be it,
Resolved, that the Silver Bow
Trades and Labor Council in regular
meeting assembled, express its pro-
found sorrow at his passing, that its
sincere expression of coincidence be
conveyed to members of his family
and that the resolutions be placed in
the minutes and published in the
Montana Labor News.

Organizations
Uncover Enemies
through Roll Calls

HELENA.-A bill to allow EN-
ployees of state institutions to bar
gain collectively came out of the
labor committee with a split report.
The bill provides that employees of
state institutions be given the pref
erence of organizing into unions of
their own choosing and be allowed
the privilege of collective bargain
ing. The motion was made to adopt
the majority report which recon-
mended that the bill do not pass.
This motion was made by Stromnes
of Cascade. A substitute motion was
made by Spiegel that the bill be
printed and placed on general
orders. Spiegel also requested that
a roll call be taken on his motion
to be entered in the House Journal
Enclosed is a copy of the roll call.
The opponents of the bill were
Stromnes and Williams of Yellow
stone, the proponents were Spiegel
of Silver Bow, Sullivan of Silver
Bow, and Moss of Custer. They
made their position very plain on
the matter that the legislature had
no right to sit on the rights of any
group of employees of the state and
prevent them from organizing and
bargaining collectively. The chief
purpose of the bill was to allow the
prison guards in the state peniten-
tiary to organize without being fired
by the warden.

f N 6 hEERS GALL
ATTENTION TO DANGER
OF 0WSLEY BUILDING

The Engineers Union has had the
Owsley Realty Company, the Owsley
building, and Fred Grandpre, as
agent, unfair for the past several
weeks. Care of boilers, heating sys-
TENS, engines, ETC., comes under the
jurisdiction of the Engineers Union.
1t would appear that Fred Grandpre
is trying to challenge the right of
the engineers to have jurisdiction
over this property, insofar as this
line of work is concerned.
There is another factor involved
and it is n of safety, not only for
the tenants of the building, but for
hundreds Of children who ~patronize
the Butte Business College.
In order that the public may be
conversant with conditions in the
Owsley block, the following section
of the Codes of the State of Montana
is herewith reprinted:
Section 2728. 1t is unlawful for
any person in this state to operate
a stationary boiler or steam engine
or any boiler or steam-engine, other
than railroad locomotives or other
engines than boilers exempted by
the provisions of Section 2726 of this
code, without a license granted I'M
der the provisions of this chapter.
The owner, renter, or user of any
steam-engine or boiler is equally
liable for the violation of this sec
ton. But in case of accident, sick
ness, refusal to work, or any unfore-
seen prevention of the licensed engi-
neer employed by any owner, renter
or user of a steam-engine or boiler
operated in remote districts, which
would retard the work to be per-
formed, the owner, renter, or user
may, for the space Of fifteen days,
employ any person of the age of
eighteen years, whom he may con-
slider competent to run the engine
or boiler, although such person SO
employed may not be the holder of
an engineers license. The person
so employing the unlicensed engi-
neer must Immediately notify the
inspector or assistant inspector. But
no owner, renter, or user of steam
machinery shall be allowed to SO
employ unlicensed engineers for
more than fifteen days in any one
calendar year. And it shall be I'M
lawful, except as stated in this sec
ton, for any person, firm, or cor
poration to employ any person not
duly licensed as an engineer, within
the meaning of this act, to run or
operate any of the boilers or engines
subject to the provisions of this act.

Many Unions Oppose
Midnight Closing

Many of the unions in Montana
have expressed their opposition to
the passage of a bill which would
prohibit the sale of liquor from IL
o'clock midnight Saturdays to 6
o'clock Monday mornings.
Unquestionably this would affect
wages and income of a large number
of people in Montana. 1t would cause
a reduction in not only the number
of men employed but also the num-
Der of women employed. 1t is not
confined exclusively to the catering
trade but to teamsters, clerks and
others.
