CENTRALIZED Cit:I,
CONTROL HIT
BY D'EWART'
Congressman Says Industry,
Local Government Needed
TO Solve Problems

Only after private industry and
state, county and local governments
have expended every possible effort
should we look to the federal gov
eminent in meeting postwar en-
ployment and other problems, de-
clared Rep. Wesley A. D'Ewart of
Wilsall in a talk at a dinner meet
ing in the Allen cafe SatuI day
night.
The congressman was here with
Mrs. D'Ewart on a hurried swing
over his district before his return to
Washington. A. B. Friedlund pre-
sided at the dinner, arrangements
for which had been made by, Otto
NJ ChristinSon, member of the state
Republican executive committee.
There are a great many men in
Washington who will be only too
glad to take advantage and tell us
how, when and where to work and
how and where to live" Mr.. d.
Ewart declared.
= He said he saw many encouraging
factors for the future. Agriculture
now, in contrast with the period af-
ter the last war, is in a sound condi-
tion.
Too, there are great opportuni-
ties in the future for this section OF
Montana" he declared. He cited the
encouraging prospects for the coor-
dinated Missouri river development
program. He called it a sound pro-
gram that will benefit Montana, as
well as the immediate territory 1t
will serve.
The congressman, named at a
special election this summer said he
had planned to spend all September
visiting his constituents and getting
their views. However, the end of the
War and the call to congress to re-
convene on Sept. forced him TO
change his plans.
The Allies must not, as they dld
last time, miss the boat" at the
peace table. he continued.
1T is up to private industry, not
the government, to see that our vet /
erans are taken care OF and that .
every one has a job he stated. I'VE /
can come through with flying colors /
if we keep our minds on the de-
velopment of jobs and opportuni-
ties at home and not look to the
federal government to furni S h
them"
He touched briefly on his entry
in the congress and urged Montan-
ans of his district to write him
# in Washington.
Concluding, he declared, Business
should be encouraged and restraints
and unfair taxes removed by cong
ress, so it can and will provide the
necessary jobs. A centralized gov
,rnment cannot accomplish this;
roe anternriSe can "
Out-of- town guests included State
Sen. and Mrs. Fred Robinson and
John Survant of Malta, Charles H.
of Saco Divide and Mr.;
mo Mrs. E. A. Walstad and Mr.. and .
Mrs William C. Greer OF Opheim.

Reasons Cited
for Returning
to High School

Urging neighborly participation
on the part of all citizens OF Glas-
gov. Superintendent r. L. Irle to-
day suggested reasons why teen
ayers who have not graduated from
high school should return to school
in September.
The ck-to-school drive this
year aims nationally at not merely
maintaining present high school en-
rollment but at increasing it. Since
1910 the nations high school en-
rollment has dropped by more than
one million, Superintendent Irle
said.
Mr.. Irles suggestions to teen-ag-
ers follows:
Invest in yourself" Learning in
school can increase your economic
security, make you more useful
citizen, give you better understand
ing of the world. develop your lead
erShip qualities, and lay the founda-
tions of healthful living.
Don't fence yourself in. Lack of
a high-school education will build a
fence around your life" Amazing
new developments have been taking
place during the war in science, me-
chanics. transportation, industry,
government. and world organiza-
tion. Learn about these develop
ments in high school so you will be
a more able worker and citizen lat
er.
You can be better than you are"
Let school show you how, through
the courses it gives, through school
sports and physical training,
through team work with boys and
girls of your own age.
Postwar standards will be high
er. Many employers, during the.
war. didn't expect you to have high
school education. NOW, the breaks
will 60 to boys and girls who are
