the schools history with an unex-
pected record of four wins and one
loss in class A competition to take
second place honors and a we'll earn

The Locomotives reached their
peak when they turned back a strong
Bozeman team "a to 10, in a game
that found every member of the
squad turning in a stellar perform
ance. Perhaps the toughest assign
ment came when they travelled to
Butte for their first conference
game. Greatly handicapped by the
filters and strange conditions, they
n~one-the-less came through with a
close 6 to 0 victory. Their only de-
feat was handed to them by the
champion Livingston Rangers who
roughed them up in the second half
for a 25 to 0 count. The boys,
however, came bouncing back to up
set the Havre visitors 7 to 6, and
then had a field day against Ana
conda Central to the tune of At

The Laurel team loses only eight
members by graduation, and all in
dications show that again they will
have a formidable line that was so

stated that he used to feel like

He would bloat full of gas and
acidulous liquids for hours after

in this vicinity who now praise
INNER AID. He states he was
amazed at the results when he
took this medicine Now he eats
what he wants without gas or
bloating, and bowels are regular
for the first time in years. He

WHAT ABOUT THE BRITISH

With the Congress of the I'm t e d
States apparently ready to vote $597, OOO,-
600 for winter relief to France, Italy and
Austria, we call your attention to the fact
that the food rations in Great Britain are
skimpier than in the worst stages of the
war
The Christmas season will be marked
by extra rations. Britons are to be permit
ted to buy an extra 10c worth of meat,
which is enough for scanty meal if spent
on cheaper grades. They will also get an
extra pound and half of sugar and an
extra four ounces of candy.
The regular ration for British subjects
is twenty cents worth of meat and half a
pound of sugar week and one pound of
candy month.

NOT SOCIALIZED MEDICINE

Here are two facts which should be
present in the thinking of every American
in connection with discussions about $50
cialized medicine" and compulsory health
insurance programs:
Cd Some four million Americans
were classified Of during the recent
war
(2) An American Medical Associa-
ton survey estimates that twO-thirds of
the population cannot afford the expense
of a serious illness.
These facts do not mean that the peO-
pie of this country are ready to accept
"socialized medicine" which seems to in
clude a form of mass medical treatment.
1t indicates, however, that the attention of
the people and the government should be
directed to a program to take care of the
health of those unable to afford proper
medical care.
Bernard M. Baruch recently suggested
a compulsory health insurance program
for low-income groups to be financed
through payroll deductions augmented by
some Federal aid. He seems to believe
that some form of insurance covering this
class of our citizens by law and financed
in part by the government is necessary.
1t should be understood that the health
needs of the nation involve two problems:
one being the medical treatment of pa
tients and the other being the economic
problems involved in the financing of
medical care. Mr.. Baruch is against the
governments taking over medicine and is
interested in some program which will
meet the second problem that confronts
individuals and families.

SON OF HEAVEN FALLS

Always in life something occurs to
shock us out of our superiority complex
Too many of us think we are better
than the other fellow, but he is just as
good as we are if he ia honest and upright,
as we feel we are.
Measured by the yardstick of honesty,
we are better only when compared with
men who are dishonest, but so far as an
cestry is concerned, we are all frail hu.
man beings who will eventually become
parts of an undistinguishable entity.
coz While simple word or act, even by
child, may make us realize at times that
we are no better than our
fellows, it required a couple of atomic
bombs to make the Emperor of Japan, the
so-called "Son of Heaven" realize that
he, too, is only human being.
The Citizen, last Saturday, published
seven illustrations showing the change
that has come over Emperor Hirohto since
the defeat of japan. Playing up to the
"Son of Heaven" complex, his subjects
were required to drop to their knees
whenever in his presence, which was sell
dom, because he led secluded life. He
was god to them; they believed general
ly that he was made of different stuff
than they, but, because of his change of
attitude since Japan was beaten, they are
gradually realizing that he is human be-
ing of the same type as they are.
Il He shows his democracy" by ming
ling with the people, by even attending
a baseball game with the common herd"
as they were regarded in the days when
they looked upon him as the "Son of
Heaven"
But the "Son of Heaven has fallen to
their level

NOT SO FAST, DOCTOR!

DR.. Edward l.. Bortz, president of the
American Medical Association, urges every
American city to get ready to handle
atomic bomb casualties.
{ While there may be many reasons
why medical men should give serious con-
sideratiOn to the problems connected with
treating atomic bomb casualties there is no
reason at the present time for municipal
tiles to undertake the campaign that DR..
BOrtz recommends. '~'"r' ~ g..
We understand the urge that moves
speakers to be somewhat sensational in
their addresses but if the need really ex.
: lists we feel sure that the government of
the United States would take the initiative.
Obviously, that is whyewe haYe govern
, ment
; Our suspicion is that the officials rem
. resenting the United States are in po-
. sitiOn to determine when a program
, should be undertaken to make ready for
atomic warfare. Until they come forth
with their suggestions we will take civil
. ian advice with few grains of salt.

cOMMENDS THE CITIZEN

Editor, The Citizen:
The Monroe County Audubon
Society wishes to congratulate
The Key West Citizen on its edi-
torial stand with regard to the
killing and trapping of wild
birds on the Island of Key West.
At recent meeting the Society
passed the following resolution:
BE it resolved that the Of
fetal thanks of the Society be
expressed by letter to the Editor
of The Key West Citizen for the
two excellently- written, and
forcefully expressed editorials
'decrying the killing and trapping
of birds on the Island of Key
West. The Society's members, to-
gether with many other citizens
who have 50 expressed them
selves definitely, agree that the
use of slingshots, air rifles and
firearms within the city limits is
a danger, not only to the beauti-
full wild birds enhancing our city,
but to human life.
THE Society concurs with
the stand taken by The Citizen
in urging proper enforcement of
the laws, both with regard to the
molestation, killing, and trapping
of birds, and with regard to
the protection of human beings.
The Society further believes
that the attitude expressed by
both The Citizen and the So
ciety represents a majority of
the residents of the city.
1.-THE Society welcomes and is
most pleased to have the cooper
alton of The Citizen in further
ling the desires of residents of
Key West, both in the conserva-
ton of birds and human life"
