Nous Baby Continues to Thrive in Incubator;
Weighed Only Pound. Is Ounces at Birth

Very young Johnny Maus, just
six days old now, seems to be
winning his battle to see more
of this world, which he entered
two and a half months early.
Johnny, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Asa MauS, was born at the Big
Horn County Community hos
pital last Friday at 11:2O p. m.
He seemed lively indeed for his
size, says Mrs. Selma Cooksey,
hospital superintendent, for he
weighed only a pound and Is
ounces
Mrs. Cooksey Immediately tel
ephoned the Department Of
Public Welfare in Helena for
an incubator, which was rushed
to Hardin by various members
of the state highway patrol
BY midnight Saturday, young
Johnny was nesting comfort
ably in the incubator, and there
he will remain until he gains
more weight.
The tiny infant has a lusty
cry, says Mrs. Cooksey, and has
a good appetite for his formu-
la, which is administered with
a dropper. He is now gaining
little weight. It was not neces-
sary to administer any artificial
stimulants to the baby, she
stated. He does get a little ex-
ira oxygen in his incubator.
Johnny was officially named
John Asa. He measures 16!z
inches in length and his head
is Just 1Oh inches around. He
is a blonde at the moment, and
is perfectly formed, according
to the hospital superintendent
His father, Asa Maus, is an
ex-service man, and the fam
lily lived in one of the new
apartments in the Veterans
Housing project just west OF
Hardin. Maus is a blacksmith
and is employed by Fred Par
lier. He spent four years in the
air. corps during the last war,
serving as a mechanic in Eng
land. He held the rank of cor
poral when he left the army.
The MauSes were married on
May 10, 1916. Mrs. Maus, who
is only 10, is the former Bon
ME Clark.
Johnny was delivered by DR..
L. H. Labbitt.

RETURNS AFTER
CHILLY WINTER

Pfc Walter Pantoja of Lodge
Grass left Ladd field near
Fairbanks, Alaska, recently,
enroute to San francisco, Cal,
where his ship expects to dock
during the third week of April.
He has been serving with
the Army ground forces arctic
winter testing unit, Task Force
'tFRIGD", commanded by Col.
Paul v. Kane of Corvallis, Ore.
The purpose of the task force
has been to- test all types of
Army ground forces equippage
for use under arctic conditions.
Temperatures lower than 60
degrees below zero have been
recorded in areas where the vi
tai tests were being conducted.
Pfc. Pantoja will be able to
boast of having lived in the
open during one of Alaska's
coolest winters. His friends will
probably hear tales of climbing
out of a sleeping bag and
dressing in temperatures of go
to 70 degrees below. They will
hear how quickly faces and
noses would freeze and how
the BUDDY system" Of watch
ing prevented serious harm.
Army sources pointed out
that a cold soldier is not an
efficient soldier. The Army
tested men to he sure that the
clothes worn were sufficient to
keep a man warm in the ex-
tremely low temperatures.
There is still much to be
learned about arctic operations
that must wait until cold
weather sets in again next
year, it was stated The sur
face has only been scratched
in the field of arctic warfare
investigations.

Heur Discussion
On Beet Labor

r. B. Haight, representative
of the state emergency labor
supervisor, told members of the
Big Horn County Beet Grow
ers' association about labor
prospects for 1916 at a meeting
Saturday afternoon in tn e
community room of the court
house.
Haight gave a resume of la
Dor conditions before and dur
ing the war and up to the pre-
sent. He said the Mexican gov
eminent now has a much more
favorable attitude toward the
importation of labor from that
country than it did in 1916.
The extension service and those
states having a labor surplus
are also cooperating with the
sugar companies to assure an
adequate supply of beet work.
erS.
Texas in particular, he point
ed out, has a great number of
workers who are ready to come
as soon as jobs are available
for them. Most of the labor
needed here will probably be
recruited among Texas Mexic-
ans, with enough Mexican ma
tionals to meet the remainder
of the requirements.
The growers then heard a
comparison of the different
methods of blocking and thin
ming. Haight described tests on
methods at the Huntley exper-
iment station.
L. R. Cool made a short talk
outlining local labor prospects
He urged all who could use
help before beet work starts to
get in touch with Holly Sugar
company field men.

Jensen CHECKS
ON CHECKER CAB

Anyone expects to see a
Checker cab on city streets,
but when it is cavorting a.
round on Highway 81 at 4 o.
clock in the morning in a most
unorthodox manner, it requires
investigation, is the firm opin-
ion of Harold Jensen of Har-
din.
what is more, the sheriffs of
Big Horn and Yellowstone
county agree with young Jen-
sen, for he was responsible for
the recovery of a cab stolen
in Billings some time Saturday
night.
Jensen, accompanied by En-
anuel Herbel, also of Hardin,
were on their way home from
Billings Sunday morning when
the cab whizzed by them. It
continued in front of them,
weaving back and forth across
the road in such a peculiar
manner that the two young
men became curious. They
caught up with the cab after
following it about 10 miles, and
pulled up alongside, forcing it
to stop.
Jensen then got out of his
car, Sheriff Roy Riley said, OPP
ened the cab door and said,
Move over. I don't like the
way you're driving" He piloted
the cab to Hardin and turned
the driver over to Sheriff Ri
ley who interned him in the
county Jail until he could get
in touch with Billings officers.
The cab bore a Yellowstone
county license
The driver of the cab gave
his name as Walter Myers Of
Billings. Riley said he was in
toxicated. Billings authorities
said the Checker cab company
had reported a missing cab a.
bout 2::30 am. Sunday. so the
vehicle was returned to the
company and Myers was taken
to Billings, where he is being
held.
Riley and the local highway
patrolman praised Jensen for
his quick thinking and prompt
action.

MORE HOPE FOR
WOOL GROWERS

The prospects of establishing
a government wool policy re-
quired by western sheep rails
ers are considerably improved
by the Senate agriculture conn.,,
mittee's approval of the Rob-,
ertson bill, Congressman Wes-
ley A. D'Ewart said this week.
The measure, introduced by
Senator Robertson Of wyoming.
provides among other things a.
comparable price for wool, a
support price of at least 80 per
cent of the comparable price
and permission for the CCC to
sell its wool holdings in COM
petition with foreign wool, be-
low parity and at a loss If
necessary. The bill was favor
ably reported last week.
D'Ewart has taken an active
part in supporting legislation
which will provide a stable fu-
ture for the wool industry. He
said he was not satisfied with
the measure approved by the
House agriculture committee,
which would extend for two
years the present CCC pur-
chase program.
The American wool industry
Is threatened by the ability Of
low cost foreign producers Is
undersell domestic wool despite
the "a cent duty, D'Ewart said.
and by the enormous stock
piles of wool now held by q
British cartel and the CCC.

And if we firmly believe that
democracy is the best form of
government. why should we fear
other types that we are firmly
convinced cannot answer our
needs? Our fear is making us
suspicious, thus arousing ON the
part of other nations and taking
Us down the road away from
peace. Another psychological factor
that prevents international CO.
operation is the will of power"
Our leaders as well as the leaders
of other nations want power first,
peace second.
On this basis there can be no
peace. Ignorance of the roots of
current problems on the part of
the masses and their leaders is
responsible for much of the con-
flict between countries.
1.-THE best way to hate a person
is to keep from getting to know
him." So it is with nations.
Economic conflicts are usually
found at the root of every war
Imperialism, brought on by de-
sire for economic gain, is basic
cause for the distrust and alarm
generated by greedy nation in
the minds of other nations affec-
ted by its expanding tendencies.
Yet we all know that nations are
unequally balanced economically.
There are the "haves" and the
"have-nots" and peace cannot
be had as long as the "haves"
control the world for their own
advantage. History proves that the
"have-nots" will fight, if necessary.
for their share. The economic con-
dition of Europe, as we all know,
is at present VIGOROUSLY poor. We
fortunate nations who emerged
from the war comparatively un-
scathed can produce enough food
for Europe but the European
have no capital with which o buy
it and no goods for which 10
trade it. The rasult is mass pow
erty and starvation. Peace cannot
come until these economic wings
are righted.
