FALL WEATHER IS
FACTOR IN RECORD
YIELD i. s. CROPS
Should Cold Hold Off For Few
Weeks, IA Production Will
Be Greatest Known

The latest of the play-by-play re-
ports from the nations fields and
bins reveals that a few weeks of
favorable weather could give the
largest aggregate volume of crops
this country has ever produced.
However, unless Mother Nature con,
tinues to beam rather broadly and
hold off frosts till the large acreage
of late-planted crops can mature,
crop production will be the second
best in history, runner-up to the
record set in 1925 outstandingly
favorable season.
Latest changes reported from the
crop front indicate 172-million BUSH
els more corn than previously esti-
mated and tobacco, sweet po-
cotton, peanuts, soybeans,
and sorghums. Prospects for dried
beans have declined 10 per cent, and
current estimates for potatoes, dry
peas, apples, sugar beets, rice and
buckwheat are down 1 to a per
cent. The net effect of August
changes improved national crop pro-
spects about 2 per cent, a per cent
above last year, 9 per cent above
any year prior to 1912, and % per
cent above the 1923-32 "pre-
brought" average.

LOCOMOTIVES OPEN
SEASON BY TAKING
KLEIN SQUAD 45-O
inexperienced Bears No Match
For Purple and Gold In Game
Here Saturday Afternoon

The Laurel Locomotives swampeC
an inexperienced Klein football
squad 40 to 0 in the first game OF
the season on the home field Satur-
day, Sept. IS.
The Bears, who are taking up the
game again this year after falling
out of league competition last sea
son, were no match for the purple
and gold who scored early in the
first period on a 20-yard end jaunt
by Jim Whitson. The touchdown
had been set up when George Harp
er bounced upon a Klein tumble
midway in the opening quarter;
Laurel crossed the Bears goal for
the second score when Harper drove
through center from the eight-yard
line. Don Fellows kicked the extra
point.
In the second quarter Whitson
passed to Bill Speare on the 30-yard
line and Bill gathered in the ball
and by some fancy lodging crossed
the goal line. Fellows intercepted
a Klein pass on the visitors 25-yard
line and the Locomotives crashed
to the fourth touchdown when Bob
Rosselot hit center to make the
score 25 to 0 at half time.
Late in the third quarter a series
of end runs and line plunges by
Whitson and Rosselot set the ball
which Whitson went around left end
for the fifth touchdown. Whitson
passed to Phillips for the extra
point. The fourth quarter saw Lau-
rel requirements continue the touch
down march with Sonny Void and
Bobby Kamerzel making long gain
on the ground. Hammered scored
from the courtyard line in the
fourth quarter. Bob Rosselot re-
turned to the game in the last
quarter and tossed a pass to Rudy
Phillips who scored from the WISH
tors ten-yard line. A similar pass
scored the. extra point.

Protests Injury To
Trees, Other Objects
In First Street Park

Children and some adults recent
ly have been molesting and damag-
ing the flowers, trees and equip
ment on the triangular tract on
East First street which the Laurel
Garden club has been converting
into a city park and beauty spot,
Mrs. j. r. Heebner, president of the
club, said Wednesday,.
Injuries to the property also have
resulted from persons climbing the
flag pole and using the plaque as
a target. Certain trees and the
plaque were dedicated earlier in the
year, at a ceremony attended by
several hundred people, to the Lau-
rel men and women in the armed
services.
Mrs. Heebner warned that the
plot is public property and is en-
titled to complete protection from
vandalism.

ATTENTION CALLED TO
CHURCH SERVICE PLAN,
END OF EUROPE'S WAR

Laurel pastors of churches again
direct the public's attention to pro-
visions for services of thanksgiving
that will be conducted within the
hour after receipt of news that
fighting in western Europe has
come to an end.
The following rules were adopted
by the ministers at a conference
last week:
(1) AS soon as possible after the
news flash is established as a fact
the church bells will ring simultan-
eously, indicating that the services
in each of the churches will start
in half an hour. AS the services
start, the second bell will be rung
at all the churches.
(2) If the news flash comes after
II o'clock in the evening, the ser
vices will be held at 8 o'clock the
next morning, with the first bells
ringing at 1880.
(3) If the Jews comes any time
during the day there will be only
a half-hour warning; therefore
everyone is invited to attend the
services in such clothes as they
happen to be wearing.
The churches to have the services
at the same hour are the German
Congregational, Our Savior's Luth-
eran, Church of the Nazarene, st.
Johns Lutheran and the Methodist
church. The Catholic church also
will have a thanksgiving mass, the
hour of which will be announced at
that church and likely will not be
at the same hour as the others.

Civilian Motorists
Gas Shrinks; See No
Increase For ont

The average civilian motorist
should expect no increase in his
gasoline ration for the next sew
eral months, at least not before the
end of the war with Germany, the
office of price administrator says.
Civilian stocks of gasoline built
up last winter have been greatly re-
duced despite increased imports and
record domestic production. Civilian
grade gasoline stocks have decreas-
ed approximately two million bar
rels in 80 days.

LAMEY DESCRIBES
DEMO CONVENTION
Chairman Of Montana Delega-
ton At Chicago Is Speak
er At Rotary Meeting

Arthur F. Lamey, Billings attor-
ney and chairman of the Montana
delegation attending the Democratic
national convention this summer,
was the speaker at the meeting
Tuesday of the Laurel Rotary club
and described a number of interest
ing Incidents he had observed while
sitting for hours on the uncomfort-
able seats of the great convention
hall. The program committeeman,
5. Meyer Harris, announced that
Lamey's talk would be followed next
week by a description of the Re-
publican convention by J. w. Cor
win, a Montana G.. o. P. delegate.
Lamey did not dwell on the I'M
animous nomination of President
Roosevelt for the fourth term,
which had been covered by the press
and radio. Instead he told of the
convention hall, the great crowd, the
demonstrations and the mannerisms
of some Of the delegates.
The impression seems to prevail

radio description, that Henry A.
Wallace might have been nominal
ed for vice president had the dele
gates ballotted Immediately after
the Wallace demonstration. Lamey
discounted that. There was a dem
o~nstration well enough, but Lamey
did not seem to think Wallace would
have made the grade.
A side-light was a description of
the thoroughness with which city
politics are organized in Chicago.
The city hall crowd goes into Of
flee or stays in office, to quite an
as the result of organiza-
ton, which extends down through
wards, streets and blocks to every
household and voter.
Lamey said he did not know how
much the mayor did to entertain
the Republicans, but he knew the
Democrats received every consid-
and courtesy.
He closed his address with a
strong plea for every citizen, re-
CARELESS of political faith, to safe
guard the American institutions Of
liberty, vote intelligently, and keep
heir major parties free of seizure

7. B. PATCH TESTS
BEING MADE HERE
Experts Hunt For Early Stage
Of White Plague Among Lau-
rel Children, Families

Through cooperation of the Mon.
tana tuberculosis association anC
the Laurel Woman's club the patch
testing program to detect the pres.
ence of tuberculosis is being con.
Quoted this week in Laurel. Miss
Mary Van Vactor, field nurse for
the Montana tuberculosis associa-
ton, applied the tests Monday, and
DR.. E. C. Hall, city health officer,
will read the tests Friday.
The patch testing program is a
survey to find cases of tuberculosis
early. The largest percentage of
cases admitted at Galen are those
in the far advanced states.
The child who is positive" is x
rayed, but as tuberculosis is passed
from one person to another the pur-
pose of the test is lost if the whole
of the positive" is not X
rayed to find the source of the in
lection.
To date nearly 500 Montana men
have been rejected by selective SER
vice because of latent or active tub
erculosis. Yellowstone county had
three deaths from TB in 1913 and
cases admitted to Galen.
When TB begins, the infected per-
son usually does not feel sick, so
he does not go to a doctor. After
disease gets a good start he
may feel sick and call a DOCTOR.
In the latter instance the doctor
finds the TB has advanced
20 a point where cure is difficult
and time consuming.
Miss Van Vactor said, eff we wait
'or people to show signs or SYM
otoms fatigue, loss of appetite, in
digestion, cough, loss of weight) we
;hall not find many cases in the
,arly and most hopeful stage. Tub
,~rculosis must be looked up and
lot waited for"
1t is through the sale of Christ
mas seals that the program is sup
,orted in Laurel.

Meredith OF University Outlines
Two Ways Returning Veterans May
Receive Free Educational Benefits

Missoula, Sept. 2O.-Plans by
which veterans of the second World
war will be given free educational
benefits at Montana State Univer-
sity were outlined this week by
Claude l.. Meredith, chief of the
vocational rehabilitation and educa-
tional division of the veterans adj
ministration at Fort Harrison,
Mont, who conferred with univer-
sity officials and department heads.
Honorably discharged service men
now are entitled to two types of
training at the university, Meredith
stated.
Vocational trainees are not enter
ed in the university until a definite
vocational objective is decided upon,
such as law, business administra-
ton, journalism or any of the other
regular courses.
Students who receive benefits
from this plan will be entitled to
tuition costs, books and supplies at
the expense of the veterans admin
~istration, as we'll as a flexible pen
sion so that each enrollee is entitled
to a minimum of $50 a month while
in training.
The vocational training law was
passed in March 1943 and was put
into effect at Montana State Uni
versity in January 1914.
Under the second plan, which is
incorporated in the &c. l." bill, SER
vice men under 25 years of age at
the time of enlistment who have
served in the present war 80 days
more and have been honorably
discharged, will be basically entitled
to one year of educational benefits
at the university.
Advantages granted to applicants
here include tuition fees, books, and
subsistence allowance of $50 a
month if the student is single, and
SIS monthly if he has dependents
all at the expense of the veterans
administration.
If the veteran successfully COM
pletes one year of training, he is
qualified to accept additional train
ing, if necessary, equal to the time
ne spent in service. The G. l. bill
law in June this year.
Eight vocational training en-
.ollees attended the university this
summer. Some 25 veterans will be
under the program during
quarter, Meredith estimated. He

iiderable number of discharged

PREPARE To
RENDER AID
TO VETERANS
Body To Assist Service
Men In Obtaining Ser
vices, Benefits

Another indication Of the belief
of many that the war will come to
an end in the not too distant future
and that returning veterans will re-
quire the kindly services of exper-
fenced people for promptly obtain
ing final pay, schooling, pensions,
loans, the proper filing of papers
and claims, and other benefits, was
reflected in the action of Laurel
American Legion post No. 123 at
its Sept. ID meeting when a COM
mittee was appointed to render as
sistance to veterans and their fam
lilies. 1t was believed that although
benefits of several kinds have been
provided or promised, the veterans.
may not know all the ms and outs
of procedure, and a committee
charged with the responsibility of
rendering practical assistance would
be of great benefit to the men or
their dependents.
To protect the mems rights and
interests when returning home to
start life anew, and to prevent in
justices which veterans of World
war | at times encountered, the post
appointed a committee of past COM
manders, consisting of DR.. ID. H.
McCauley, service office, r. B.
Packard, Fred w. Graft and Hilmar
Wage.
After careful consideration of the
task, the committee and Laurel Post
Rodgers met with M. j.

mander of Yellowstone post No. a.,
at the new Veterans Service center
which has just been opened in room
439 of tn Stapleton building in Bill
That office is TO be the CEN

established and is ready to be of
assistance. The committee saIo.
believe that by having such

'endered to the deserving men,"

The committee states that Davies,

nd that those requiring services
ill find him considerable and pleas
