Senator Protests
State WPA Slash

Senator Murray Of Montana has
written Commissioner Howard o. Hun
ter of the WPA a vigorous protest
against the contemplated discontin-
uance of WPA operations in 30 Mon
tana counties, effective June 80. Such
program, the senator told Hunter,
would bring disastrous results. He
urged, instead, a 1900 increase in Mon
tana's July quota. Murray said it ap-
peared that official washington fails
to recognize the fact that Montana,
along with a few other western states,
has received practically nothing from
the millions being expended on the
national defense program"

Butte residents, famed for their hos
pitality and sympathy, added another
big mark to their long list of charities
recently when funeral services for
Mrs. Douglas Craft were conducted.
The 21-year-old woman succumbed
in Butte hospital after suffering
injuries when car her youthful hus-
band was driving plunged into the
canyon on Harding way. The death Of

quiet for some time.
Hearing of the plight of the man,
who. had 30 cents in his pocket when
he picked himself up from the wreck
age, Sheriff Al Mcleod began a small
campaign in his office, among deputies.
and visitors, to help the man rehabil-
itate himself. When word of the acct
dent spread, $121.75 was raised.

breaking story Of the Poison man and
his misfortune, also contributed freely
clothes for the accident victim, a
grave and plot for her burial and
for the dazed, boyish father
and his daughter.
The young man said the gifts were
"wonderful-an expression Of the kind
people that inhabit Butte"
A fearful father, holding a SCARED,
but smiling daughter, listened to the
Rev. Thomas Ashworth say consoling
words over the casket of his youthful
wife. The baby that was delivered after
the accident died. The mother and
the infant were laid at rest in the
same grave.
Accompanied by his parents and the

father and mother and drove to their
lome In Lolo. After recovering from
his injuries, Graft intends to go to
roSton, get a job, send for his smiling
laughter and begin life anew.

Joint Bank Account
Decision Is Rendered

The Montana supreme court has held
that establishment of a joint bank
account does not automatically turn
the money over to the survivor of those
who establish it.
The court, in an opinion by Justice
Albert Angstman, reversed the district
court for Ravalli county and directed
it to override objections of Agnes Sui
Ivan in suit over the estate of Annie
Sullivan.
Agnes Sullivan claimed a joint bank
account established by Annie Sullivan
and herself, while Gerald Sullivan, adj
ministrator of the estate, commended
the account was part of the estate. He
sued to establish this contention.
Under Annie Sullivan's will the bank
account was to be divided between
Agnes and Gerald. The supreme court
held that the will prevailed.

FISH PAINTINGS
PLAN DECIDED

State and federal officials moved to
insure Montana anglers of well stocked
streams in a program designed to pro-
vide the maximum Of efficiency In
planting.
The cooperative agreement an
nounced following q conference be-
tween I. v. Anderson, regional head
Of the forest service wildlife division,
Fred j. Foster, assistant regional d.
rector of the United States fish and
wildlife service and Elmer Phillips,
state superintendent of fisheries, pro-
vides all planting requests must clear
through Phillips.
Hitherto, Phillips explained, the
paintings were more or less a "hit or
miss" undertaking with sportsmenis
organizations obtaining fingerlings
from both state and federal hatcher1es
This resulted in planting Of mixed
species and some overcrowding Of
streams.
Under the new setup the II state
and 2 federal hatcheries in Montana
win have definite areas to supply, and
all requests, either state or federal,
win 60 first to Phillips. The fisheries
chief said this would eliminate dupli-
cation Of paintings and permit stock
ing Of areas up till now overlooked.
I'm the past there have been in
stances Of fish being hauled from the
federal hatchery at Bozeman to the
northwest part Of the state for plant
ing almost at the back door of the
hatchery at Libby" Phillips said. "Un-
der the new agreement this will be
eliminated and each hatchery win be
assigned a definite area to supply"
All streams and lakes In the state
are to be classified to determine what
type and number of fish can be sup
ported. Phillips and Raymond West,
