 It died aborning the meet ing showed how white-hot are political passions over foreign af- fairs within the Republican party.
 Ringmaster of the meeting was Representative Ham, Fish of New York, megaphonic foe of Roose- velt's defense program. He had grandiose plans for setting up an Independent leadership" with himself as top man.
 Groundwork for the revolt had been carefully laid at an earlier secret meeting staged by Fish and small group of cronies. They included Representative John Vorys of Ohio, Frank. Keefe of Wisconsin, Harold Knutson of Minnesota, Frank CroWther of New York, Robert Chiperfield of Illinois, and John Robison of Kentucky.
 At this meeting Fish loudly censured Joe Martin for failing to take more aggressive stand" against the Presidents. foreign policies. He argued that if the isolationistS were to make any headway in the House they would e have to form their town indepen- dent leadership"
 So it was unanimously decided that Fish, as ranking minority leader of the Foreign Affairs Committee, was the man for the job. But, rather than spring such bold scheme suddenly on their colalgues, this iSolationist group decided first to sound them out.
 Ham Fish invited to a secret meeting SO Republicans who have voted consistently against New Deal defense measures. Unaware that the real purpose was to "feel out" their loyalty to their popular leader, Joe Marin, 53 attended.
 ATTACK MARTIN
 However, they quickly got the drift when Fish, Vorys and Keefe waded into Martin. Among other things, they charged him with permitting New Dealers to shift, the war blame to the Republican Party.
 Only congressman who actually mentioned Martin by name was Keefe of Wisconsin, but all three made it bluntly plain that they held him responsible for failing: (D to oppose actively the aid- democracies program, and (2) to repudiate Wendell Willkie, War War Secretary Stimson, Navy Secretary Knox and other COP supporters of the President.
 At the psychological moment, Ham Fish, who acted as chairman, pulled out resolution outlining thew statement of foreign policy" for Republicans. It reaffirmed the COP campaign pledge against war and denounced "execAtive acts and provocative statements by President Roosevelt leading toward war;"
 At this point isolationist Aug ust H. Andresen of Minnesota picked up the cudgels for Fish by declaring: "That right. The whole New Deal stinks, and it's up to us to see that the public doesn't forget it."
 Keefe chimed in with: "The Re- publican party will be swallowed up unless we take an aggressive stand against the war policies of the Administration. If we're not getting the right kind of leader ship, it's up to us to make our own leadership on the floor." BUSTED PLOT
 But getting a majority of Re- publicans present to agree was

Selected Poem
TO A PHOTOGRAPHER
(sara Van Alstyne Allen in the New York Times)

Sara Van Alstyne Allen in the New York Times Find the shadow in the grass In the curved and polish glass. Trace the intricate design, The horizons rolling line, And the mingled light and shade Where the meadow squares are laid. In the chamber of the brain Time will leave a rusty stain. And the pattern that we know Will be lost beneath the snow. But with in the shutter furled Lies the image of this world. Safe within the cameras eye Will be mirrored earth and sky And the mountains in the West Where the coluds of morning rest.

where such shows occur are
good, then they indicate that
oil source beds exist beneath.
Records of the "seepS ana
shows" have been taken by sew
eral major oil company scouts,
and where such shows have
been encountered, it is believed
that test we'll drilling sites will
be selected.
Oil, unlike gold, is mot where
one may find it," The "black
gold" is found only in such ar
cas- as evidence in the form OF
marine fossils etc. proves that a
vast sea inundated the land and
supported the marine and mar
inc vegetable life from which
oil is believed to have evolved.
Big Horn county and the Har-
din area is such an area, and
all geologic evidence points to
the strong possibility of oil and
gas being beneath this part OF
Montana.
Present scouting activity is a
forerunner of actual field test
well drilling operations and seis-
mograph work during the sum-
mer of 1941.
NOTE:
Recent experiments made by
scientific staffs of oil companies
and the American Petroleum in
stitute prove that oil must have
evolved from marine life. AS a
preponderence of marine fossil
remains of many types have
been found in the Hardin, Pryor,
Grow Agency, Lodge Grass and
other areas of Big Horn county,
it appears quite evident that oil
must be here. Findings as to the
origin of crude oil will be dis
cuSsed in the next issue of the

MONTANA IN BRIEF

Cut Bank, April 16 - UP) -
The volunteer fire department
here was ready to resign today
if the city council purchased
standard" fire fighting equip
ment.
This readiness to "quit" arose
from a disagreement between
the volunteer firemen and the
city council men as to what the
needs of the department really
were. The councilmen argued for
a new fire truck. The firemen
were loyal to the old truck.
They insisted all it needed was
modernization in the form of a
few more gadgets to bring it up
to standard" specifications.
