Charged With Fraud
In Unemployment Benefits

HELENA.-Two charges of fraud
against claimants who drew unem-
ployment compensation benefit
checks were filed this week by
Everett E. Lofgren, attorney for the
Unemployment Compensation COM
mission.
One of the charges was filed In
Great Falls and one charge was
filed in Townsend Mr.. Lofgren
said.
Both of these cases involve
claimants who misrepresented facts
in drawing benefit checks in that
they claimed to be available for
work when they were not available
for work
Mr.. Lofgren said field auditors Of
the commission now have investi-
gated statements of over 500 claim
ants who drew benefit checks anc
that he would ask that jail sem
fences be imposed in each case where
the law is violated.
The law prohibits anyone draw
ing benefits for any week in which
he had earnings of more than $500
All claimants drawing benefits alst
must be able to work and available
for work, Mr.. Lofgren said.

Libby Man Gets
Foretoste of War

In his recent trip to the west,
James Harris, Jr., enjoyed a fore
taste of war. He didn't get into the
actual fighting but he saw all the
preparations that were being made
for bitter engagement.
Harris was visiting relatives in
Chehalis, Wash, and it will be re-
membered that the area lying be-
tween Chehalis and FIT. Lewis was
chosen by the U. S. army for war
games and a battle between Red
and Blue armies. Harris brother
in-law is manager in that district of
the Puget Sound Power Company
and supervised the running into the
district of power lines for the arm
les search lights and other needs.
Because of that connection the Libby
man had fine opportunity to travel
over much of the district while the
armies were moving into position
and he speaks of it as highly in
teresting experience.
He was thrilled by the sight of
dive bombers in action, going
through all the motions of actual
WdI except SllOOllIlb IGdl UulIGtS
He saw the planes diving from great
heights at targets and then swoop-
ing rapidly upward and away. He
saw thousands of men moving into
position, ran onto section of coun-
try that was dotted with cleverly
concealed machine gun nests or pill
boxes. Countless trucks and motor
cars of various descriptions were en-
countered everywhere, and hun
dreds of light tanks were seen NOV
ing into battle formation. Detach-
ments of calvary were seen out or
scouting expeditions. At night the
heavens were lighted by criss-
crossed beams of light from power
full searehlights. The area that was
later fought over was very rugged
and rough country, he said.
! Harris didn't remain long enough
j TO see the two armies meet and gei
into actual fighting but he says tha'
nevertheless the experience was in.

long remember.

Up with the sun at a. m, Kint-
las lady campers are expected to
start carrying water, cutting fire
wood and cleaning up the camp
subject to the warning that this
work must be done very quietly so
as not to disturb slumbers of gem
tlemen In camp"
Four hours later, when the gem
tlemen have arisen, breakfast is
served. Then dishes are washed.
After the days rest period, which
extends from 10 a m to 1905. the
women begin preparation of lunch,
any gentlemen who are fishing, of
course, have their lunches brought
to them.
Thus the day rushes merrily on.
Time never drags, for during their
spare time the women may clean
fish, brush away insects which
might bother the men folks at their
afternoon nap, or even fan the gem
tlemen as they rest, if the day be
warm.
At eight in the evening comes a
lull in. the days work, as sleepy

watch, serving alternate periods of
one hour until 4 a. m. returns to
begin new day.

When he took the job he could have

such sport but they will turn their
