as he sped out across the alpine

lontanans Warned
Fur SWind|ers Are
Operating In State

Warning against an organized
fur swindle now being worked in
Montana has been issued by Mon
tanans, Incorporated, the state
chamber of commerce. Reported
by Kenneth F. Roahen. United
States Game Management Agent,
the group seIls what's representa-
as finest quality fur coats, in
reality inferior material.
For the past three or fou r
years a gang known to US as the
Williamson Trading Company,
with headquarters at Boise, Idaho.
and Ontario, Oregon. consisting
of approximately SO men a n d
women, have been orkinR Mon
tana. as well as other western
states, selling as they represent
them to be finest quality fur
coats" Mr.. Roahen wrote Mon
tanans. Incorporated.
This gang preys on farmers
wives. beauty operators, clerks.
etc, who do not know their furs
Practically all these supposed
first quality coats are made from
dyed rabbit skins and dyed house
cat skins and cost the statesmen
from $3.50 to $3.50 F. o. B.
Montana points, thew being made
in New York and Chicago. The
sale men W h n approaching a
residence or other point will if
they consider general looks to be
sufficient. price their garments at
anywhere around $500. and var
lous sales have been made around
that price. If conditions do not
appear favorable. they may price
the garments at $3.50 and finally
come down to $50, $50 or even
$35.
Their principal salestalk is
that they smuggled the garments
in from Canada and thus saved
the duty. or that they trapped the
fnr and had the fur made into
coats. They represent the coats
to be fine quality Alaska or Cana
dian furs, such as seal. ETC. The

CCC BOYS TO GET
MILITARY TRAINING

WASHINGTON-(ANP) - CCC
youths are now to be trained in the
rudiments of military formations
and drills, according to a report
from the office of Director Nc
Entee. Long agitation for military
training for these youths has
eliminated in an order which
gives this basic military training
without the use of rifles Or arms.
Such training, for the colored
youths now in camp, will prove
beneficial to them when and if
they reach the draft age, for it is
already proven that former men,
bers of the &C are making the best
soldiers.
Added to their accomplishments
in work which is closely allied to
military maneuvers, forestry, driv-
ing, cooking, welding, and other
skills acquired in CCC, the rudi-
mentary drill will add much to the
good already done by the CCC for
unemployed youths.
