WILL HELP GET
BEET WORKERS

Following an appeal made re-
Gently by Chester A. Davis,
newly appointed food admins
traitor, for increased sugar beet
production, Ashley C.. Roberts,
manager of the Hardin office
of the u. S. Employment service,
stated that although 1O,554
acres of sugar beetS were con-
tracted for and 9,095 acres were
planted last year in Big Horn
county, current indications are
that about 5000 acres are to be
contracted and planted in this
county this season.
Mr.. Roberts assured local su-
gar beet growers that the COM
bined facilities of the U. S. en-
ployment service and the coun-
ty extension service would do
everything possible in their
power to provide adequate labor
in this locality to plant, cult
vate and harvest a beet acre
age at least equal to that of
1912.
IN a telegram to all state
war boards. Food Administrator
Davis pointed out that a mark
ed reduction in farmers inten-
lions to plant sugar beets would
result in production far below
the nations actual needs, par
ticularly in view of the neces-
sity for diverting ships from
sugar transportation to more
essential war uses.
Mr.. Roberts declared that ev-
cry effort will be made to have
sufficient labor available for
maximum sugar beet production,
but urged that some farmers
who have not already done Sc
place orders for help at once
with the U. S. Employment
service office in order that the
maximum use might be made
Of local labor and distribution
of imported labor might be
made without waste.

tCOntinued from last week.
Outrage burned in Bigger.
Come on. Show us what you
did"
He stood without moving. The
man caught his arm and tried to
lead him to the bed. He jerked vio-
lently, his muscles flexed taut. A
hot band of fire encircled his throat.
His teeth clamped so hard that he
could not have spoken had he tried.
He backed against a wall, his eyes
lowered in a paleful glare.
What's the matter, boy?"
Bigger's lips pulled back, showing
his white teeth. Then he blinked
his eyes the flashlights went off and
he knew in the instant of their
flashing that they had taken his
picture showing him with his back
against a wall, his teeth barred in
a Snarl.
Scared, boy? You weren't scared
that night you were in here with
that girl, were you?"
Bigger wanted to take enough air
into his lungs to scream, Eyes! L
was scared!" But who would believe
him? He would go to his death
without ever trying to tell them
what he had felt that night. When
the man spoke again, his tone had
changed.
Come on, now, boy. We've treat
ed you pretty nice, but we can get
tough if we have to, see? It's up to
eyou! Get over there by the bed and
show us how you raped and muir
dered that grill"
Il didn't rape her" Bigger said
through stiff lips.
Jaw, come on. What you got to
lose now? Show us what you did,
Il don't want to"
'You have to!"
81 don't have to!
"well, we'll make yOu!"
"You can't make me do nothing
but die!"
And as he said it, he wished that
they would shoot him SO that he
could be free of them, forever. An
other white man with a golden star
upon his chest walked over.
Drop it. We got our case"
"You think We ought TOP"
"Sure. What's the use?"
20. K, boys. Take him back to
the car"
They clamped the steel handouts
on his wrists and led him down the
hall. Even before the front door
was opened, he heard the faint roar
of voices. AS far as he could see
through the glass panels, up and
down the street, were white people
standing in the cold wind and SUM-
shine They took him through the
door and the roar grew louder; as
soon as he was visible the roar
roar reached a deafening pitch and
continued to rise each second. Sur
rounded by policemen, he was half
drag and half-lifted along the
narrow lane of people, through the
gate, toward the waiting car.
"You black APPEL"

He felt hot sittle splashlng against
his face. Somebody tried to leap at
him, but was caught by the police
men and held back AS he STUN

CLEVELAND, Ohio - (SNS) -
Race riots in America create "a

from Major Myron Weitz, of this
city, serving in North Africa.
Major Weitzs sentiments were con-

Letter bag of the Cleveland Plain
dealer for Monday, August 8. Major
WeitZ wrote.
Last night, for example, I had
been reading the recent newspapers
and magazines all about the strikes,
the riots in Detroit, the disharmony
in the various government agencies
Naturally, when l went to bed l

pictures of the riots in the news

over here, to understand how these
things can go on today.
"I am not SO ignorant of fact
