Report Law
Is Effective July !

Beginning July l Montana's
new accident reporting law will
be in effect. requiring drivers of
cars involved in crashes that re-
suit in injuries or death or dam
ages exceeding S25, to make COM
plete reports of the mishaps on
forms printed by the highway
patrol. The reports. which can
not be used as evidence in court
will be filed with the patrol and
analysed in an attempt to re-
duce the hazard of similar acct
dents in the future.
The new accident reporting
law is similar to those in %
states. and conforms to one ap-
proved by the uniform accident
committee of the national con.
gress. according to Chief Lou
Boedecker. patrol supervisor.
Report forms will be available at
all police stations, sheriffs' offices
county treasurers' Offices and will
be carried by all highway patrol
men.
Garages are included in the
act, and will be furnished with
cards to be filled out and sent to
the patrol office when cars ap-
parently damaged in accidents
or by bullets are taken to gar
ages for repair or are lowed by
wreekers. County coroners also
will be given forms to fill out
and send to the patrol office re-
garding all car accidents that re-
suit in deaths.
The law clamps down on hit
and-run drivers by making them
subject to the penalties provided
for in the act if they fail to stop
after hitting persons, driven or
empty cars or anv other property.
Violations of the act call for i'm
prisonment of not more than 80
days or one year. fines of be-
tween 500 and $4,000, or both.

UndiStributed dividends of the defunct Sanditz & Trau- rig Company bank will be turned over to the treasurer of the state unless called for on or before June 12. The dividends, which amount to $2,693.1 Il, are all that remain of the assets of the bank. At torney L. Russell Carter, ap- bearing today in superior court on behalf of the Water bury National Bank, receivers for the defunct institution, was granted an order from Judge Kenneth Wynne for the disposal of the divi- dends in the manner stated, unless called for by June l2.
 The amount represents dividends declared in favor of depositors, he said. In the majority of cases they were very small and that was the reason they were not sought, he in- dicated.
 All bank funds not claimed by de- positors, according to statute, re- vert to the state treasurer.

ones may see the light and run a good race. I like to think of Saint Helena praying for her son, Con- stantine the Great. How great must have been her joy when in the heat of battle the illuminated Cross appeared in the evening sky, bearing the heartening battle cry of generations yet unborn: Tn this sign thou wilt conquer" The par- ent today believes that the better part of the nature of youth is look ing to the heavens for a sign, and that victory and peace are still to besfound in the shadow of the Cross. Swastika, hammer or sickle, the sa- lute of the inverted hand or the clenched fist, typifying the mad quest of man for power, do not sat- iSfy mans desire to acknowledge something that will master him. The lust for power makes of man an inhuman thing; the humility of the Cross makes him akin to the angels. In the troublous days ahead, we must look to youth train- ed in. Christian homes for leader ship and service. They must serve our beloved country in the battle which is impending between pagan ism and Christianity. They must enlist for the duration of the war in the sacred cause of safeguarding the dignity of the human person. ality, They will move forward into battle with the blessings of Chris tian parents who hope to restore all things to Christ"

 Being Sought

Judge Kenenth Wynne in supeE.e court today took under advisement the stipulation of the city of Water bury to reduce the assessment on the Victorian apartments, located on Grove street. The apartments are owned by the Prudential Insurance Company of America.
 The reduction would be in the listing of the building, from SIP, 900 to $150,000. The stipulation provides that the assessment of the land at $15,700 would not be changed.
 In addition, it is provided that the full tax payment for the 1887 grand list would be accepted in the amount of $5,136.70, if paid before June 1.

Workmen at Southbury Protest Hiring of Non-

Special to The Democrat)
 Southbury, June 2AThe strike of workmen at the state training school for mental defectives continued to- day, with apparently no efforts to- ward settlement being made. The strike, which began Wednesday af- ternoon, has virtually halted con- Struction of buildings at the hospi- tai site.
 Called by the Waterbury Truck Drivers union, the strike has since spread among other A. F. of L. union workers. Estimates of the number of men on strike vary con- siderably, ranging from 200 to more than 800. It appeared today that about $50 or 400 men had joined the walkout.
 The strike began in protest against the alleged hiring of non- union drivers from Bridgeport by the E. and F. Construction Co., of Bridgeport, which was awarded the contract for erection of the hospi- tai buildings. Rudolph Tata, busi- ness agent for the drivers union, claimed that union protests had not been needed.
 The state public works department today seemed to be waiting for the company and the union to reach a
