will want to know what contribution,
what sacrifice, the senator made after
he suddenly CLAIMED up and quit max
ing speeches for the America First
Committee.
All of the honest men and women
of Montana who contributed without
stint to a successful war effort, and
who are still contributing to feed the
starving peoples of many lands, and
establish an enduring peace, will want
to know how Senator Wheeler, while
serving in the senate, became one of
the richest men in that body, how he
acquired choice parcels of land, how
he built radio enterprise, and why
he never denounces the corrupt and
crooked activities of the Anaconda
Copper Mining company, of which he
has knowledge.
The day of reckoning for Senator
Wheeler approaches, and the senator
is short in his accounts to the people
of Montana.
Senator Wheeler's record is not in
the American tradition. The record

Opinions Of
SENATOR WHEELER'S RECORD
oPENlTo QUESTION
By BRUCE SMITH, Butte

On the first page of the Evening
Post, with picture, Senator Wheeler
is quoted as having said in his filing
petition, my record supporting vet
Grams. farmers and labor legislation
speaks for itself"
The declaration is about as inane
and meaningless as one would expect
catcher
The former leading isolationist,
president-baiter and highlypaid cru
sader of the America First Commit
tee," may think that declaration suf-
ficient. He may be laboring under the
assumption that, being the favorite
United States Senator of the Anacon-
da Copper Mining company, for 10
these many years, he is as good as
elected. The assumption is justified by
the record of success which the cor
rupt and crooked corporation has had
in foisting friendly and subservient
men on the public payroll and keeping
them there.
But something more is needed in
this year of 1916. A casual vote now
and then for some veteran, farmer or
labor legislation the while the Sena-
tor was pursuing his constant occu-
patton of always being on the take"
for Wheeler, demands an accounting
to the electors of Montana.
How Much Was 'BKs' Take From
America First?
The veterans will want to know,
and are entitled to know, how much
the senator was paid by the America
First Committee, and where all the
money came from that was expended
by that committee, in a campaign that
pleased all the Nazi-Fascists in the
United States, campaign that en-
couraged all the disloyal elements, all
the agents of Hitler in this country
and Central and South America
The veterans, the farmers and the
workers will want to know why Sen
ator Wheeler never uttered word of
protest, in the United States or else
where, when the Anaconda Wire and
Gable company furnished defective
war material to the United States gov
eminent, and paid a fine of over one
million dollars.
The veterans, the farmers and the
workers, all of whom made every sac

THE OLD so AND
SO SAYS:

IL fought and l kept Montana's wa
tiers for Montana" shouted B. X.
Wheeler.
Two or three years ago cheap
skate lobby-gow was sent up into Mon
tana by the Power Trust to smear the
MVA. He went over the state singing
the same song Montana's waters be-
long to Montana" The Stiffness of the
statement was so apparent, as soon as
people had an opportunity to think
about the matter a bit, that the Power
Trust speakers quit saying it. But so
desperate is B. K Wheeler for votes,
that he trots out the same old discred-
tied line. The next time he speaks he
will claim that he built the Fort Peck
dam, that he is putting in all the pro-
posed dams on the Missouri, the Big
Horn, the Yellowstone. But does he
say with whose money? Does he say
that the State of Montana is doing this
work and paying for it? Oh, no. He
claims credit for getting the federal
government to spend this money. And
If the federal government is spending
it does it first have to go to the State
of Montana for permission to build
those dams? Does the State of Mon
tana control the water impounded at
Fort Peck-or the army engineers?
Does that water irrigate one acre of
land in Montana? Does the land now
bought from residents of the
state and tax payers, now pay cent
Of taxes to the State of Montana or
any county in it? Is the Bureau of Rec
lamation an agency of the State of
Montana?

JOBLESS!

Employment during May reached
the highest peak in history, accord
ing to the Census Bureau. 1t re-
ports that 55,320,0OO had jobs,
which is 100000 more than the pre-
vious high mark, reached in July,
1916, in the middle of the war.
The Bureau said 100000 people
are jobless now, but its figure on
unemployment does not agree with
those of the Social Security Board
and the Veterans Administration,
which are much higher.

blouses for her, consider them as
separate garments. When you fin
ish them, however, sew a tape
around the waist of the skirt and
place button holes all around it.
Then sew buttons on the blouse so
that the two can be attached to-
gether. In this way you prevent
the blouse from gaping from under
meath the skirt, and this Is especial
ly important If the girl likes active
play.
Shirtwaist effects are popular in
this age group and many tailored
dresses can be concocted from
shirts. II you have a blue or white
shirt, parts Of this might be made
into the bodice and the sleeves while
another shirt in print might be
used for the skirt.
Buttons are used extensively on
ehildren's garments because they
are easy for the youngster to manip.
ulate. Furthermore. they are eco-
nomical and add decoration even to
the simple dress.
Because of the many washings
which children's garments must
take, always select sturdy mate
rial that will not lose its color or
firmness of weave. A chiffon dress
may be available for remodel
ing and it might occur to you to

II your youngster Is old enough,
let her work out some of the deco.
rative details of the dress herself.
She may be interested in sewing q
feather-stitch around full skirt, for
example; or perhaps, she has
learned some interesting weaving OF

might like to trim the collar, pock

Selection of Suitable Fabric
Important in Tots Garments

NAIHEN children are growing by
w leaps and bounds. it's some
times a difficult job to keep up their
wardrobes. II the mother Is handy
with the needle. the youngster
is lucky because he or she can al
ways be kept in suitable toggery.
Just consider the positionaof the
average family. Dads shirts can
always be converted into boys
shirts for junior, pinafores or
dresses and blouses can also be used
for dresses. blouses and skirts for
the younger girls.
When making clothing for the
younger members, particularly in
using old material. suitability should
be carefully considered. Some
plaids and prints used for mothers
dresses or dads shirts may be per-
fectly stunning on the adult, but very
poor for the young child.
II there is enough fabric only for
