Good Evening.

In the heat of the evening How we grumble and grunt' All over and around the place A cool spot we hunt. The heat is simply terriple1 If only 1t were less muggy, The front lawn Is not so bad If only 1t weren't 50 buggy! In the cool of the evening, How we complain and crab! As we lay us down to sleep An extra blanket we grab. It's awful cool for August! Nights we start to shiver, My. isn't that a damp cool breeze That waits in from the river! Cold and heat, there 1t is, Neither of them is a treat, Take your pick of the two For never the twain shall meet.

ing basis than farmers, have
thrown the parity formula out OF
balance and against farm produc-
ton.
WAGE SCALE HIGHER
This is very simple. The parity
formula does not take into account
the greatly increased wage scale
on farms necessary to hold farm
labor. And that farm labor must
be used to get the 20 to 30 per
cent increase in farm production.
That means farm production
sosts--this year in dairying espe-
cially: next year in nearly all lines
OF farm production--are rising out
OF all proportion TO the increase
in farm prices provided in the
normal parity formula.
Farm leaders. most farmers. and
congressman from farm states
so-caIled farm bloc-are getting
this picture now. But apparently
the administration, and the nom
farm people, cannot realize 1t.
They say, isn't the farmer get
ting more income today than he
has for 20 years? And that prob
ably IS true.

And that is where the danger

full impact Of the labor shortage

Court Says Railroad
Is Not Gunner of Oil
Found On Land Grant

The supreme court held that a rail-
road granted a right OF way through
the public lands by congress in 1875
did not acquire ownership Of the I'M
DERIVING oil or minerals.
Justice Murphy delivered the Z to o
decision on a test case to determine
whether the Great Northern Railway
Co. could drill for oil on a section
OF its right Of way in Glacier county,
Montana.
The railroad said the question was
highly important" because several
hundred thousand miles Of land had
been granted under the 1875 act and
thousands of acres was In oil bearing
or mineral bearing districts with
value aggregating many millions OF
dollars" Justice Murphy said that the
railroad had but an easement" and
hence has no right to the underlying
oil and minerals"
This result" he added, does not
freeze the oil and minerals in place"
Murphy said that the railroad would
be free to develop" the land should
a lease be executed under legislation
passed by congress In 1910.
The decision was limited to the land
directly at issue in the case.
The justice department said the 1875
statute was intended Ito grant to the
railroads a right Of passage across the
public domain"

Montana's Only Admiral
We'll Qualified for Job

Rear Admiral John H. Hoover, ac-
cording to an official naval news re-
lease from San Juan, Puerto Rico, has
ample qualifications for his new post
as supreme commander of American
forces in the western Caribbean re-
I gion. Hoover Is believed to hold high
er naval post than ever has been
granted previously to a Montanan.
Hoover Is a brother of w. H. Hoover
for many years a Great Falls prac-
ticing attorney, now western counsel
/ for the Anaconda Copper Mining CO.
Of Butte. Born in Ohio in 1887, Adj
miral Hoover entered the naval acade-
my at Annapolis from Great Falls in
| 1908. Although of the class of 1907,
he was graduated with the section Of
/ the class commissioned In September,
| 1906 He is Montana's only admiral.
The news release was from head
quarters of the 10th naval district at
San Juan. 1t states that:
I'm the interest Of unity Rear Ad-
miral John H. Hoover, commandant
10th naval district, has been placed
in command Of all navy, army and
marine corps activities for the Carib-
bean frontier.
This unification of command Is be-
lieved to be unique, at least in recent
defense annals Of the United States
The area covered includes all waters
Of the Caribbean, except the southwest
corner, extending into the Atlantic to
the north of the eastern end of Cuba,
and north Of the Dominican Republic
and Puerto Rico 1t extends south to
cover the water area off the Guianas
and east including all of the Antilles.
THE new command enlarges the
duties of Rear Admiral Hoover, who
is among the very few officers Of his
grade qualified to command slbma-
rines and designated as well as a naval
officer. He took up aviation at the age
Of Al, when detailed to the naval air
station at Pensacola, Fla, for training.
He has had broad experience afloat
and ashore.
During the earlier years OF his
service Rear Admiral Hoover special
lied In cruisers and destroyers, par
ticularly in torpedo and fire control, |
design and operation. During World
war / he commanded deStroyers
abroad. From 1928 to 1926 he had sub
marine duty in the Canal Zone and |
at the navy department, Washington.
He took the pilots course In aviation
In 1928.
Graduating from the navy war col
lege in 1892 Rear Admiral Hoover five
years later completed the course at
the army war college. Between 1923
and 1e41 he commanded the aircraft
carriers Langley and Lexington. In
le4I he was promoted to the grade
Of rear admiral and assigned the COM
mand of the 10th naval district, the
Caribbean coastal frontier and as
ask unit commander In the Atlantic

Complete information regarding the
contest is being sent to all Montana
high schools.
The contest announcement explains
the reasons for subordinating the topic
of the service Of banks to that Of the
value of defense savings as follows:
Banks believe that the investment
should be made in defense bonds and
stamps because patriotism and your
own protection demand that you
do your part; defense bonds are the
best investment in order to accumulate
a reserve against the reconstruction
period after the war, and their pur-
chase win curb initiation, which must
be prevented at all costs, and which
might become a most dangerous enemy
Of our country"
Banks are cooperating with the
government in every possible way to
help win the war. the announcement
continues, adding that they are glad
to serve their country by selling de-
tense bonds for which they receive no
commission.
