Jim Hill ignored them both and
plated a new town midway be-

ispel. Undaunted, the citizens Of
the other two villages hitched
teams to their buildings and drag
ged them to mark the site Of two
ghost towns.
Then in the summer of 1892
miners from Butte came tumbling
into the valley and staked out
practically all of the land as home
stead claims. They would take a
few days off from work and make
the trip to the valley, stake out
and file their claims, hire some To-
cal carpenter to build a homestead
cabin and return to the job. They
proved themselves shrewd enough,
for when the depression came,
they had only to move to the
homestead, pillow their fertile acres
and become prosperous farmers.

was nowhere more deliberately
pursued than along this line. Us
ually the first step was to estab-
ISh a newspaper, which was in re-
atty a sales circular for real estate
promotion. The fever of specula-
ton in town lots invariably outran
the interest in land yield; the net
result was the artificial evaluation
Of land which led to Wholesale

Shelby. Montana
Since the time the Indians held
the country, there always has been
a communication route connecting
the headWaters Of the SaSkatche-
wan and the upper Missouri east
OF the Rocky mountains. Railroad
planning logically took account of
this and projected a north-south
feeder line connecting Great Falls,
Montana, with Canadian railroads
in Alberta. This ran through rich
bunchgrass lands famous as cat
tleman's paradise. Where it bisec-
ed the main line of the Great Nor
thern, the construction crews in
1891 dragged q boxcar for a station
and named it Shelby Junction in
honor Of Peter p. Shelby, superin-
tendent for the Great Northern in
Montana. When MIR. Shelby heard
of this he is reported to have re-
marked, THAT God-forsaken mud
hole won't ever amount to q damn -
But Shelby did grow into a color

 Miss Alice O. Peak, nursing direc- tor. reported that more expectant mothers are attending the classes conducted by the Visiting Nurses Association than at the same time last year. This increase reflects the higher birth rate this year.

UN to Get Armed Forces On Request When Needd

CT. amphihious hero of the war in the Pacific, nov ranking member of the U. s. delegation in the United Nations Military stan Committee, speaking as an individual. sAaos
 50 far as know there Is no proposal for an international armed force and such an organization never has been suggested otl1cially in connection with the United Na- tons.
 French want French Troops
 'sThe idea has come up twice in the past. At the general disarma- ment conference Cin Geneva) ia 1882, the French proposed an in- ternational police force 10 be sta- toned in eastern Europe. The proposal never received serious ae- tention."
 Actually what the French want- ed was an army, made up largely of French troops but paid by the League of Nations stationed in Germany.
 During early discussions that led to the United Nations charter. the Soviet Union mentioned the idea of an international air force under international command. But she made no specific proposal. no other nation accepted the sueges- ton. and it was not adopted"
 What the Military Stan Commit tee is doing now is trying to work out, for benefit of the Security Council, detailed plans for agree ments under which member nations can be called upon if force should have to be used to keep world peace.

Rrs RuRroN HEATn

New York, Nov. sl--tNEAl-The United Nations has rejected any idea of having its own international army, made up of troops and ma teriel provided by member nations.
 1f the Security Council should ever decide upon the use of force against Q nation that was disturb ing world peace, it will call upon troops, weapons and services sup piled by member nations on specific request.
 Ranking military experts scof at the idea of an international United Nations army of soldiers giving al- legiance to the world organization ahead of their native countries. They say 1t never would work.
 There Is a difference between professional soldiers and mercen- ary soldiers" one military expert pointed out. Anybody who devotes himself to his counry's army, navy or air force is a professional sole dier, but when he goes into battle he is motivated by patriotism. The mercenary soldier, fighting for whenever buys his services, never has been any good as a class. When a showdown comes he lacks that vital spark that pulls victory out of defeat.
 Obviously. with differences in language, training, strategy and tactics, it would be inefficient to put men of many nationalities in- to one company in such an army. So what would you do9 Have company Of Americans or Britons, a company of French, a company of Russians and one of Chinese side by side2 Why would command themp How do you think they would work together?
