Islands and conduct a Blackfeet
Roundup on the present site of
Tokyo.
Pvt. Red Fox said that for day s

about it. he said the sooner he

War Fund Campaign
Nets $3,S24 On
BIackfeet Reserve
(By X. ". Bergan. chairman of
Blackfeet Chapter

DIoIhlCCI SidpleI
The 1914 War Fund campaign
of the American Red Cross is
nearing its close, according to
Mrs. F. H. Mcbride, War Fund
chairman. To date the fund
totals 1891. OF this amount.
the Blackfeet Tribal Council gave
$1,000. S2.824 was raised by SOL
icitors throughout the various
communities by volunteer work
ers.
One of the outstanding efforts
was made in the Glacier Park
community, where $500 was
raised. This little community,
whose population has suffered
tremendously from the inroads of
war industries and the military
forces, boasts of bare SO adults.
The workers have gone into
every nook and corner and ap-
preached every individual to
make this splendid record.
Compared with last year. the
figures indicate an increase of
$500 in totals. The contributions
from the individuals have in
creased almost 100 percent. The
SOLICITORS collected $l,50l last
year by popular subscription
and the Tribal Council contrib
uted 81, $50, making total of
1924. The national increase
this year mas so percent.
The Red Cross is the only
agency working with the armed
forces overseas. The fact that
three men and three women Red
Cross workers have been killed
in the Mediterranean battle areas
the past year indicates where
they work. The ratio of one REQ
Cross worker for every 5000 men
makes the rate of casualties very
high.
The Red Cross Clubmobiles get
as close to the front lines as they
are permitted by the command
ing general and serve the men
coffee and doughnuts when they
come back from the front. All
the blood plasma used to save
hundreds of lives is provided by
the Red Cross.
I h rehabilitation of tn
wounded in the hospitals is car
ried on almost exclusively by the
Red Cross. The Red Cross serves
as tie between the front line
soldier and his home in III e
United States.
Recently. the local Red Cross
Home Service Chairman, George
Seymour. had an inquiry in re-
gard to an expected son from a
front line soldier. Mr.. Seymour
cabIed back that it was a son and
that both mother and son were
doing we'll. This is simple de-
scription of a few of the service
that the people of the Blackfeet
Reservation are providing their
boys overseas.

REMOVAL OF PRICE

Washington - Representative
John H. Folger's office has re-
ceived a number of communica-
lions from North Carolina diaries
this week expressing opposition to
removal of price control from
milk and milk products. The tar
get of this opposition is the
amendment of Senator James

ate milk price control.
However, the Senator's office
said that his amendment had been
killed twice and that he had no
further plans for pushing it, al
though there had been talk among
other Senators of trying to tack
1t on to the largest price control

SURRENDER CONDITIONS
ARE BEING DRAWN UP

Washington = With the in
vasion of Europe well under way,
allied diplomats are drafting sur
render and occupation terms
which are understood to call for
complete industrial demobiliza-
ton of Germany.
The terms were worked out by
the European advisory council in
London, composed of American,
British and Russian diplomats,
subject to final revision and ap-
proval of the Moscow, London and
Washington governments.
They are being rushed into fl
nal working agreement because
allied leaders feel they must be
prepared for the possibility, no
matter how remote, of a German
collapse. From the White House
down there is no evidence in Of
fetal quarters have that a col
lapse is expected.
The plan for what to do when
victory comes considers two main
contingencies: () That the Ger
man surrender will be given by a
government or a military COM
mand capable of hating resis-
lance on all fronts effectively or
(2) that the Germans will break
down piece-meal, losing their
armies and their territory in pro-
longed retreat.
In the first instance it would
be possible to bring about the or
derby military occupation of the
country; in the second, it prob
ably would be necessary for arm
les to fight their way into Ger
many.

Brougghton Announces He
Is Candidate For Vice-Pres.

New York-Governor ]. Mel
vile Broughton of North Caro-
lima, announcing his candidacy
for the Democratic vice-presiden-
tial nomination, told-a press con-
ference here Saturday that "the
American public mind in its pres
ent state will er-whelmingly
re-elect President Roosevelt"
Broughton, who said his name
would be placed in nomination
for the second place on the Demo-
cratic ticket, declared that "the
issue in the coming national cam
paign will resolve itself into the
question of the conduct of the
war and negotiations at the
peace table. All other problems
will be forgotten"
He predicted that a general
plank in the Democratic national
platform against Federal en-
croachment of States rights
would appease southern Demo
Gratis now threatening to bolt the
New Deal.
The so-called southern revolt,
Broughton said, was mot so much
anti Roosevelt nor anti-fourth
term as it was resentment against
Federal interference with mat
tiers of sole State concern"
The principal question at issue
between southern opponents OF
States rights and the Admins
tration, Broughton added, were
the poll tax and the racial prob
lem.
81 can agree with leaders of the
movement that these questions
and many others are exclusively
State perogatives," Broughtor
said.

PEARL HARBOR TRIAL
EXTENDED 6 MONTHS

Washington Compromising
senate and house differences,
congress settled on six months
extension from midnight of the
time in which court martials may
be held on any charges arising
Trom the Pearl Harbor disaster.
A bin approved by both legisla-
tive branches and sent to the

time, the secretaries of war and
navy are to make investigations
and take such action as appears
justified.
The measure extends anew the
statute of limitations which al
ready had been extended for six
months past Dec. Z, 1943, because
the war and navy departments
opposed Pearl Harbor trials dur
ing wartime.
