The country's campaign
Scared electorate today heard
bipartisan rallying calls for
post election national unity as
President Roosevelt came back
to Washington to receive a vic
tors welcome.
The decisiveness of his third-term
triumph Tuesday was reflected
hourly as a more complete tabula-
ton of the Nations popular vote
became available. With 119,567 out
of the country's 127,245 voting units
accounted for, the ballot totals stood
Mr.. Roosevelt, 26,O31, 738.
Wendell L. Willkie, 81 657,319.
The President had 80 States tc
his credit with a total of 468 elec'
toral votes, while Mr. Willkie mus
tered nine States and SO electoral
votes. The big possibility of
change in this lineup appeared tt
rest with Michigan, where late Re-
publican gains cut the Democratic
margin to a slender 2,619, with II
districts yet to report.
G. p. Vote New Record.
The Roosevelt victory, however
was not without encouraging aspect!
for his Republican opposition. Tit
same figures which clarioned hi!
reelection, also proclaimed substan'
tial Republican gains over 1896
when Mr.. Roosevelt won 523 cleo
toral votes to the eight which two
lone States yielded to his rival, AL
NJ. Landon.
In 1886 the popular vote went
Mr.. Roosevelt, 27,476.673; Mr.. Lam
don, 1879 .583, but in 1910 Mr.. Will
kie not only slashed so per cent of
the numerical size of the Roosevelt
plurality, but piled up a record
breaking mountain of Republican
ballots. Although the count was not
vet complete, he already had sur
passed the previous Republican high
of 81 ,392. 100. which Herbert Hoover
reached in 1928 in his great pros
perity landslide"
Cooperation Pledged.
With the last tardy returns still
dribbling in, Mr.. Roosevelt had a
multitude of affairs awaiting his at
tention, and on these major ques-
tons the Chief Executive was re-
ceiving an increasing number of as
surances of cooperation and sup
port from the ranks of his erstwhile
political foes. To implement these
assurances, a post-election keynote
of national unity sounded in every
section OF the country.
Following upon Mr.. WILKES tele-
gram of congratulation to Mr.
Roosevelt yesterday, Mr.. Landor
told the country by radio that it
job now was to grin and go bach
to work"
In Palo Alto, Calf, former PreSi'
dent Hoover noted that both Re.
publican Candidate Willkie anC
Democratic Candidate Roosevelt
had pledged to the utmost nationa
preparedness and to keep out O.
foreign wars"
The transcendent duty now,
Mr.. Hoover said in a statement
''is the full cooperation of every
body in this vital purpose.
Almost complete returns showed
that the strength which the Repub'
leans will command in the new
Congress, beginning in January
would be greater in the Senate anc

Germany Refuses
Safe Conduct for
U. 5. Refugee Ship
PIeo Rejected Despite
Favorable Response
From Itoly

BY the Associated Press.
The State Department announced
today that Germany had refused to
give any assurance of safe conduct
for an American ship to enter an
Irish port to bring home American
citizens, although Italy had given
such an assurance promptly.
Refusing to give such assurances,
the German government was said
to have declared that the areas
around England were "areas of mill
tary operation" and that Berlin was
mot in a position to furnish any
sort of assurance Of the nature re-
quested."
The State Department said the
italian governments prompt and
favorable response was furnished to
Germany, but that despite this the
Berlin Foreign Office declined to act
likewise.
The United States had planned to
send an American ship, probably the
liner Manhattan, 10 a Western Ire.
land port to bring home about 1900
American citizens from Great Brit
ain.
Voyage Unlikely.
In view of the German govern
ment's refusal, it was believed the
ship would not be sent.
The text of the State Depart
ment's statement:
The Department of State an
nounces that request was made
of the German government and Of
the Italian government to grant a
safe conduct for an American YES
sci to proceed to a port on the west
coast of Ireland to bring home about
1900 American citizens still in Great
Britain.
The italian government very
promptly responded favorably. A
copy of the italian reply was fur
nished to the German government
with the suggestion that the Gov
eminent of the United States would
be glad to receive similar assurances.
Germany's Reply.
after a considerable delay, the
following note has been received
from the German government:
1.-The Foreign Office has the honor
to acknowledge the receipt of the
notes of october 81 and November
l regarding the voyage of an Ameri-
can ship to repatriate American citi-
zenS from an Irish port. On the
basis of the previous statement of
the German government to the eff
feet that the areas around England
are areas of military operations, the
Reich government is not in a posi-
ton to furnish any sort of assurance
of the nature requested"
The German note was handed to
the American Embassy in Berlin
yesterday afternoon.

PROPOSES PUBLICITY FOR MINING INDUSTRY

way stations, to cQllaborate with our
port of entry stations in informing
visitors concerning Montana points OF
interest The museums are to act as
show windows, to induce tourists TO
take side trips and thus prolong their
stay This will not only benefit the
highway department through greater
gasoline sales, but be of decided ad--
vantage to Montana communities and
Montana people.
The tentative plan Is to build them
of native material at strategic points
on the federal highways. Minimum
size will be Is by "a feet. Display space
will be provided, and where practicable,
toilet facilities may be installed Tor
the attendants only"
Initiating of such projects, Fletcner
stated, depends primarily on local CO.
operation. The commission requires
that suitable right OF way be PROVIDED
by the local community and be decided
to the commission Some responsible
local organization must provide COM
petent attendants and their compen-
sation for II hours a day during
minimum three-month period, and au-
thorize an individual or committee TO
prepare and install an appropriate ex-
hibit No merchandising will be per-
mitted at the stations.
1T simply boils down to this, the
official said. that the highway de-
partment will build the structures and
for proper landscaping, pro-
viding some responsible local group
will assume responsibility for equip
ment and operation. The department
will undoubtedly provide printed mat
ter to each unit for distribution"
Cities mentioned as having located
available sites are Glasgow. Glendive,
Livingston, Red Lodge, Virginia City
and Billings 1t is understood that a
roadside structure is being built on
q. S. highway 81 near its juncture
With U. S. highway 10 near the fair
at Billings, its display to fea-
lure the beet sugar industry.

Rx GEORGE MARsH


Banquets have been held in many
| places and for many purposes, but few
! have been held 2,1O0 feet below THE
surface OF the earth.
] This singular affair took place 81
/ years ago on the deepest level Of the
West Steward mine in Butte. Desiring
to entertain some visitors in a novel
way, their hosts hit upon this unusual
plan. The guests were the members
Of the Massachusetts Street Railway
association.
The menu, which used mining terms
and the names of several Butte mines
for the various foods was as follows
Can Interpretation of the menu is In

Short Fuses (cigars)
After 80 years the humorous points
and puns of many of the items on the
menu have been lost because they re-
fer to affairs of the period. Others
are as amusing today as they were
then.
The menus were encased in minia-
ture canvas sacks, modelled on those
used by samplers for samples Of ore.
Other souvenirs at each plate were
copper anodeS, specimens of the ore
of the mine, and picture cards Of
Butte.
AS the members of the party
emerged from the cage in which they
had descended through the shaft to
the 2,100-foot level of the mine, they
found the station to be in complete
darkness except for the miners lights
attached to their caps. When the en-
tire group had reached the station,
the place was suddenly Illuminated by
turning on hundreds of red, white and
blue lights, and there was a burst of
applause from the guests.
The station was as Spick and span
as q hotel dining room. Flowers, silver
ware and snowy napery covered the
tables. The walls had been especially
and the floor was spotleSs.
powder flared as the local
photographers recorded the scene.
While the banquet progressed, miners
rolled full ore cars beside the tables

Sugar beet acreage aIlOtments as
announced recently by Secretary
of Agriculture Henry Wallace are
opposed by the board of directors
OF Montanans, Inc. kilograms pro-
testing the 1910 allotment plan
were drafted at a meeting of the
board in Helena a few days ago
and sent to MOntana's congress
siOnaI delegation. The kilograms
said:
Beet acreage allotment matter dis
cussed at directors meeting today.
Understand that while small farmers
on irrigated lands can raise up to 20
acres, total allotments will mean cur
tailment even over 1899 acreages and
there is no provision for gross expan-
sion of any Montana areas. We favor
graduated increase as proposed by the
National Reclamation association and
urge your continued good efforts in
that direction"
Reclamation and trade agreements
were also discussed fully by the di-
James H. Rowe, president; A. T. Hib-
bard, Helena; w. N. Pllrdy, Bozeman;
L. A. Campbell, Missoula; A. T. Peter
son, Billings, and Secretary Manager
w. G. Ferguson, Helena.
In regard to reclamation, directors
discussed reductions in reclamation
items which affect Montana seriously
and voted to stand behind reclama-
ton proposals made by Secretary Of
the Interior Harold IckeS as laying q
solid foundation for continuous pro-
gram of reclamation and eliminating
the present condition Of a great deal
of activity one year and marked re-
duction the next"
After listening to reports on trade
agreements the directors voted to sup
port the move of other northwestern
states in hiring DR.. Lee Coulter, noted
economist, to represent the northwest
in hearings being held in Washing
ton. The directors also voted that every
effort should be made to secure
curing congressional approval Of
trade agreements.
Ferguson, as secretary, was author
lied to incur necessary expenses in
connection with making proper pres
entation of Montana's situation IN the
matter Of graSShopper and Mormon
cricket control before the bureau Of
the budget and congressional commit
tees Directors said it would probably
be necessary to work with the Greater
North Dakota association again and
send someone to Washington, D. O.,
to appear before the committees now
studying the matter
Reports were made on the travel
situation and advertising program so
far as it has progressed to date and
directors said they believed, judging
from inquiries received at the head
quarters office, that Montana could
anticipate one Of her best travel years.

When Butte Treated Guests
To an Underground Banquet

to make the scene more realistic
W. E. Davey, well known Butte res
taurateur of the period, prepared and
served the banquet Mayor Charles
Nevin was the POSTMASTER and
throughout the party, he read mes
sages which were purpOrted to have
come from world-famous perSonageS to
the mine by wireless"
The banquet passed off successfully
and If the appetite of any guest was
spoiled by the thought of so many
million tons OF rock hanging above his
head, he kept the fact to himself.
The New England street railway ty-
coons dined underground for the first
time In their lives. Most OF them also
wore overalls for the only time In their
lives.
