CLEAN UP up,
Is The Order of The Day

The City Board Of Health and the City Council have
torestdled the coming Of Spring, and to did the people
OF the City Of Hordin. have hired q new qorboqe COL
lector md il the people will kindly clem their back
yards md pile the rubbish in the alleys. the city gorb-
age mm will haul it awuY free Of charse.
Mony people clean their front Towns ond neqlect the
back yard ond that's just where the City Health Officer
will catch them mapping. Hordin was originally known
as The City with q Reason" Why not change that
slogan to Hardin. the City Beautiful" If you will do
your part. the city will do its part ond every bit of rub
Dish. paper ond litter will be roked up and destroyed.
While we ore making our city beautiful, why not
make Moy 18th Hospital Day" in memory of Florence
Nightingale. who devoted her whole life TO roising the
standards Of her profession. The sick people Of Hordin
ore just as much entitled to cheerful surroundings as
the rest Of the people OF the world. Why not select MaY
18th as Hospital Day" that being the birthday Of
Florence Nightingale. and make q special effort to moke
duY by being clean and nicely decorated.
Several years ago while conducting q clinic on
cleanliness and sanitation in one Of the rural schools Of
Big Horn County. the doctor conducting the clinic OBJ
served while passing behind the teacher. thdt her neck
and ears were dirtier thon those Of unY child in the
school. He Immediately re-orrdnged his talk and suid
nothing about dirty ears and neck. ManY people think
that if their front yard is clean. no one will see the back
yard and thot is where they mdke q mistuke. The first
place to be Investigated by the health officer is the back
yard. People have sufficient pride as q rule. to keep
the front Ycrd clean. but neglect the back yard.
Now, let's all pull together ond moke Hordin THE
City Beautiful" not only in looking after the health Of
the children but the sanitation Of the back yards. Make
May 18th q ddY when no one will be dshomed to have
either their front or back yard Investigated. And don't
FORGET thdt manure pile.

Memories of the sit-down
strikes are being rekindled in
Washington.
Revived also are the stories of
men picketing factories by
which they had never been en-
ployed and refusing to permit
actual employees to go to !Xprk.
The reason they are thought
OF again is in connection with
efforts to revise the Wagner
Labor Act. It was after enact
ment of this statute that the
Shutdown strikes took place.
But the struggle to amend
this law, which among other
things prohibits an employer
from talking to his employees
about union matters, promises
to he prOtracted.
The CLIO has fatty announced
opposition to any revision. And
some administration leaders in
congress were active in delay
ing hearings.
Both in the House and Sen
ate groups of members are de-
manding that hearings be
pushed. They contend that bus
mess recovery Is being retard-
ed as the law now stands. They
also argue that the law should
be changed to protect workers
from coercion from any source,
which would include protection
from persons who prevent them
from working unless thew jOin
the union.
Against these groups the
friends of the law as it now
stands are battling hard. It is
a struggle Of major proportions.
It looks like a long, drawn-out
fight.
AS an example Of the inten-
sity of the battle, one member
of Congress was prevailed upon
to delay a speech for two days.
He favorS revision of the law.
Those in the opposite camp
pleaded with him not to make
the speech. Forty-eight hours
later he did speak, but he had
toned down his original re-
marks.
A prominent business man
stopped off in Washington re-
Gently.
He called at the office of an
administration Senator. The
conversation in substance fol-
lows:
"About the time I left for the
SOUTH" said the business man.
II read in the newspapers
about the administrations plan
to appease business. How is that
move getting along?"
You know as much as I do"
replied the Senator. "All that I
know about it is what I read
in the papers,"
The Brain Busters in the Cap
ital were the ones who nipped
the appeasement talk. They
didn't like the idea. They were
fealful that to bring actual ap-
peasement (Which means bust
ness recovery some of their pet
laws might have to be changed.
And Brain Busters would shud-
der at the thought of having
ever been wrong.
The real" cause of war has
at last leaked out. Lots of peo-
pie have been blamed unjustly
for it. And it would be a tough
job to guess who. But now It
is known. It's the old brass
band, No country fair would be

Insurance Companies
Successful in Test,
Atwood Declares
Speaker Points to Stiff
Competition Despite
Great Size

Albert w. Atwood, widely known
magazine writer and economist, told
200 members Of the District Life
Underwriters Association at the
Willard Hotel this noon that the
biggest life insurance companies in
the country have met the test
and the challenge implied in the
monopoly inquiry"
Mr.. Atwood declared that while
great many policyholders never
vote for the officials in charge of
the companies yet they appear to
be satisfied with the present man
agement, requiring only integrity,
ability and honesty in the operation
of the companies.
He declared that the fact that
some companies have billions Of
assets does not mean any bar to
competition. He insisted that COM
petition Is not restricted, but is
common among all classes of COM
panies, both large and small.
But that is not all, he added.
Even among the greatest companies
in size, there is the greatest COM
petition in making investments. And
SO far as competition IN making
sales is concerned, there is no limit
to 1t, as every insurance agent well
knows.
The figures are very large, but
they represent nothing but the
efforts of a multitude Of individuals
