ASKS CHECK ON
FIRE CAUSES

County Agent M. w. Heaphy
this week called upon farmers
to enlist in the fight On fire
which last year destroyed more
than $85 million of farm prop
erty and snuffed out almost
1900 lives.
Stating that the fire curve
continues to surge upward to
an all-time high this year, he
urged farmers to take time to
eliminate the common causes
of fire during Fire Prevention
week, October 6-12, which is
sponsored by the National Fire
Protection association.
Pointing out that 80 per cent
of the fires, which are devas-
tating farms at the rate of one
every IS minutes, can be pre-
vented by p%racticing constant
vigilance, the county agent de-
clared, $50 many times We have
seen the result of a lifetime
of work 60 up in smoke in a
few minutes, and all due to
failure to exercise ordinary
care"
Losses would drop Immediate
ly and sharply, the county ag-
ent said, if farmers would:
l. Protect all farm buildings
with adequate LIGHTNING rods.
2. Clean and keep clean heat
ing systems, fireplaces and
flues.
3. Check electric systems for
adequacy of load and repair or
replace worn cords and equip
ment.
4. Cover roofs of all farm
material.
S. Never discard a lighted
match or cigarette.
6. Store gasoline and kerosene
safely and away from buildings.
Z. Never use explosive clean
ing fluids.
8. Cure hay properly before
storing.
However, not all fires are
preventable, the NFPA con-
cedes. For the 10 per cent that
are unavoidable it recommends
that all farmers and rancherS
know how their fire depart
ment functions, have on hand
ladders long enough to reach
the highest roof not protected
with fire-resistant roofing, have
an adequate water supply and
inspect fire extinguishers to be
sure they are ready in case of
need.

-Four Points in Last
Three Quarters

After a scoreless and unex-
citing first quarter Hardin's
hammering Henry Hammer
spanked the local football team
to a 34-to-6 victory over the
Roundup Panthers on their
own field Friday afternoon.
Hammer had a field day in
scoring four touchdownS ana
kicking three points after
touchdown for a total of q of
Hardin's "a tallies.
Midway in the second canto
Hammer went over for the first
score on an end run from the
1O-yard line and then convert
ed with a perfect placekick.
The score at halftime was 7
to O.
Early in the third period,
Bobby Saunders tossed a pass
to Hammer who made a beau
tiful overhead catch for the
second marker. Hammers try
for point split the uprights.
A few minutes later Hammer
broke loose for a 48-yard jaunt
to pay dirt, and again kicked
the point.
Roundup's only score came in
the third period when they
scored On the sleeper" play
which caught the Hardin sec
ondary fl~at-footed, The try for
point was blocked.
In the final stanza Hammer
tore loose for a 70-yard squirt
for a touchdown, and then
booted the extra point.
Haroin's final touchdown was
made On a pass from Saunders
to GrosSman, who caught the
ball on the two-yard stripe and
stepped across the goal. The try
for point was attempted by the
passing route and failed
The Hardin team as a unit
functioned much better than i,
did the week before against
Columbus. Newark was out
standing on pass defense
against Roundup and the line
play of Vaughan and Davis
looked good. Sturzenegger, end
caught several of Saunders
aerials for nice gains against
the Panthers.
Next opponent on the Bull
dogs schedule will be the Bill
lings b" team. The game will
be played at Billings at 8 p. m

Il con Blum ChaIl lenues
Communists Bid ior
Leadership in France
By HE Assoeiofsd prsss

PARIS, Nov. %. Socialist Leader
Leon Blum sternIy challenged the
Communist Party,s bid for leader
ship Of the Fourth Republics new
government today
ii, an open letter to the newspaper
lie Populaire, Mr.. Blum asserted
that no party has the right to de-
|mand the premiership "just because
|it happens to be the largest party"
The Communists, he said, had only
the right to take the initiative IN
negotiations for formation Of the
new government.
Previously the Communists had
ANNOUNCED the candidacy Of Maui
|rice Thorez for the post Of Premier,
which is to be vacated later today
by Georges Bidault. leader Of the
Popular Republican Movement
I(A6RP).
The Communists formal bid for
the premiership Is doomed to failure,
most observers thought.
Reliable but unquotable cabinet
sources said that both Mr.. Thorez,
who will be the Communist candi-
date for Premier, and the Socialist
leader, Felix Gouin, opposed during
yesterdays cabinet meeting COM
tinuance Of the Bidault government.
| A day-long meeting of the Conn
munist Central COMMITTEES, from
which no reports Of q final decision
had yet come, heard numerous
speakers oppose continuance OF the
Bidault government and urge imnfe :
diate advancement Of Mr.. Thorez's
| candidacy.
No matter how insistent their
demand, however, the Communists
cannot get Mr.. Thorez elected with
out Socialist support, and Socialist
sources let it be known there was
little likelihood OF this.
In an open bid for Socialist ad-
herents, Mr.. Thorez told the meet
ing that all Socialists who had
| joined the Communist Party win
retain the seniority rights they had
earned in their old party.
