and Edward C. Grotzke, 20, both
wounded in the Italian campaign,
and discharged within a month of
each other in June, 1914, are now
partners in a wheat farm north OF

They farmed a section of wheat
land this year with the aid Of self
employed allowance which each
drew. as a partner in an independ-
ent enterprise under the G.. l. Bill,
Title v, readjustment allowances,
which the Montana unemployment
compensation commission admin
listers for the veterans administra-
ton. The partners drew the self
employed allowance for five months
until the harvest was over, the al
lowance making it possible for them
to work their farm after leasing the
land. Barclay Craighead, chairman
of the commission, said.
Claims for readjustment allow
ances, both unemployed and self
employed allowances may be made
by veterans of World War II at any
public employment office in the
state, Craighead stated. Veterans

There is still considerable haul
ing to be done to the dumps but the
fact that virtually all beets are out
