ana DeneVOlence.
People everywhere are looking to
the churches for the answer in these
troublesome days." DR.. Lampe said.

desperately in need of help. Only

to do" DR.. Lampe declared.

ligent to fall for the generalities
with which SO many humans dis
pose of Hollywood. Also, he is too
modest to think Of it as likely to
become a ruin because any actor,
director or writer decides to leave It.,
temporarily or permanently.
He Is back because he likes the
theater and because he thinks
Broadway and Hollywood can profit
by more mutual respect.

Tone'sluncheon companion, aware
that he is pretty serious fellow
like the columnist he is playing IN
Bill McCleery's comedy thought
maybe the actor might harbor q
yearning to write. Serious minded
chaps of his education and feeling
for the world so often do.

that question. I'm too pedantic.

Speaking of writer's, though. this
fellow McCleery is one. He has

At that point in the luncheon
Tone spied the walters Phi Beta

"Hi brother" he said, quite mat
ter of factly.
The waiter shook hands, said "hi,
brother" and went on with his work,
after explaining that he'd been a
bit down on his luck since the high
point of his career as PHI Beta
Kappa.
Tone went on with the notion that
quite bit of good might come out OF
the tendency toward Independent
production In Hollywood. He thinks
more plays from Broadway, more in
diligently made than some plays
have been, will be one of the fine
things to come of 1t.
"It should be useful in introducing
some new IDEAS" he says. Some
thing that will make people think as
well as feel. That's what like, for
instance, about Bill McCleerys play.
1t has got nice feeling, is about
some worthwhile people and states
an idea that think is important"
The intimation Of that, of course,
was that Tone would. be another
actor to go into producing when he
goes back to Hollywood. He has no
immediate plans, however. He is
taken up with the notion now of
seeing how much of a success he can
make Of his latest opportunity to
act on Broadway.
His last play there was Heming-
ways Fifth Column"
"It dealt with Spain. remember.
Unfortunately, 1t was ahead of its

PEOPLE MUST HELP THEMSELVES

Mr. II. S. Bruce, Editor,
Peoples Voice, Helena, Mont.
Dear Sir:
read in the last issue of The Voice,
that the Montana Power Co., whose
appeal for new hearing by the Fed
eral Power commission was denied,
were greatly perturbed because the
Federal Power commission was. not
guided in its decision, by the decision
rendered by the Montana State Rail-
way and Public Service commission,
on December 81, 1914.
Many people who read the State
Railway commissions report are still
wondering just who wrote it-as any
one acquainted with the members of
the State Railway commission in De-
cember, 1914, knows positively that
none of the three members of the
commission at that time had the in
telligence, the vocabulary, or the abil-
ity to write such report.
Many persons whom l have talked
to, are of the opinion that the re-
port was written by counsel for the
Electric Bond & Share Co., or the
American Power & Light Co, and that
all our railway commission had to do
with the report was sign their names.
Yes, it would have been very bene.

even at the cost of few hundred
thousand American lives, handle the
Japanese single-handed, but they are
not in the majority, and their notion
that we should settle the Asiatic prob
lem to suit ourselves, even at the risk
of war with the Soviets is sheer
nonsense.
Our Navy has sent spearheads into
the Sea of Okhutsk and East China
Sea and could possibly make condi-
tions impossible in the Japanese
Archipelago but, as long as Japan
controls the Sea of Japan and the
Yellow Sea, leaves her in a position
to make a stronger fight than the
Okinawa battle and we can't expect
much military help from the political
ly bankrupt government of Chungking
in dealing with the Japanese main
army in Manchukuo. This leaves
Russia as our main ally in that quar-
ter and her non-aggression treaty
with Japan was actually nullified
when Japan started war on Russian
ally.
Russia, unlike Great Britain, is not
in the Pacific numerous
islands but is very much interested
in having her Eastern border secure,
an ice-free harbor in
Port Arthur.

Sea of Japan, Great Britain and the
United States in control of the rest
of the Pacific Ocean, Japan could be
left in solitary confinement like hel
formidable Naval Base at Truk.
This would leave US the Battle Of
Manchukuo which we will have tC
win the hard way and the more Japs
escape to apan the less we have to
bother with. Afterwards we should
give the Japs free passage to Japan
only keeping the high-rankers and
war criminals to be dealt with accord
| ing to law.
We can now shut off Japan's stra-
tegic essential war material from
Dutch East Indies and China and with
the help of Russia, all the fish from
Kamchatka Bay and oil from SAX
halien Island which will leave her
strictly at our mercy, but as she is
transferring essential industries into
Manchukuo, there to make her last
stand, it is essential that we have
Russian participation there.
Japan will plead poverty and over
crowding when she becomes pinched
and may have to reverse her policy
of giving bonus to families having
more than 10 children as she does
now, that's her business
In 1905 Japan took from Russia the
south half of Sakhalien island and
the Chinese East Railway built by
Russian capital and drove her out of
Port Arthur, her only ice-free port on
the Pacific.
This is one reason why the Soviets
keep the largest standing army, a
large air fleet and the biggest submar-
courages sharp-shooting clubs and
parachute-pumping amongst the vari-
GUS Republics as part of the regular
school curriculum until most of her
schools are as enthusiastic in military
sports as U. S. schools are in foot
ball. The children took to it in
earnest as serious matter with the
result shown in the present about
war. AS soldiers the boys and girls
have put up with all kinds of hard
ships with little or no complaint. The

the imminent threat of the Japs in
cutting the Siberia rail
road at Lake Baikal.
The Japanese threat to the Mari
time Province of East Siberia is a
cardinal reason why the Soviets were
so anxious in pushing their industries
and national defense eastward as a
check against the Japanese aggres-
sion; the main reason why the Soviets
have mighty army, strong defense

has the reputation of being a very
good bar room entertainer.
Well, sir, with the present state
commission dominated by two men,
bers whose every decision favors the
Montana Power Co., there is but one
thing for the progressives to do-that
is to start circulating petitions all
over the state for the enactment of
law making it mandatory for the state
commission to direct the Montana
Power Co. to cut its rates for electric
service on the same basis as the Fed
eral Power commission orders them
to cut the valuation. In other words,
if the Federal Power commission cuts
the value of the NJ. p Co. holdings
40 per cent-then it would become
mandatory for the State Railway COM
mission to cut the rates for service by
40 per combating from the spring
of 1914.
We have a number of good lawyers
who could draw up law which, when
enacted, would be constitutional, and
do not anticipate any trouble in Sc
curing all the signatures, and many
more than would be needed, as our
people, having become aware of the
fact, that they have been paying ex-
orbitant electric rates in order for the
company to pay dividends on many
millions of dollars worth of watered
stock (for over 80 years., will resent
that kind of robbery and will do any
thing that they can do to remedy the
situation.
| am sure we all realize that any
assistance to the people of the state
of Montana, by our State Railway and
Public Service commission is out of
the question and whatever is done,
the people will have to do themselves.

1T is TO LAUGH

Kansas City, Mo-, July 6.-(NCA)-
Directors of the Wichita, Kansas
chamber of commerce have renewed
"a request they had previously made
that the United States chamber Of
commerce go on record as favoring
adequate" taxation of co-operatives.
Wichita businessmen, Willingly or
unwittingly, have joined hands with
the nations middlemen in a crusade
to destroy co-operatives by legisla-
ton" remarks Editor J. w. Cummins,
of the Cooperative Consumer, in COM
menting on this action . what
makes the situation slightly humor-
GUS is the fact that one of the largest
and most successful co-ops there be-
longs not to farmers, but to business
men, some of them members of the
Wichita chamber of commerce.
