Maybe you've had your trouble
getting free dental care from the
VA, but thousands Of other ex-
servicers have had their molars
mangled or their plates polished
for free.
The latest VA report says treat
ments for more than 126. 900
veterans were completed the last
three months OF l948 and lac. 900
other veterans were examined.
This cut the workload by 1914
per cent and currently leaves 1872
900 World War II veterans wait
ing treatment.
That may seem large-in fact,
Is large-but it's so per cent less
than the workload Of Sept. 1947.
when the VA had sos 900 veterans
to attend to.
To be eligible for free dental
care from the VA, you probably
already know. the veteran must
be able to prove that his disability
is service-connected.
Private dentists 1who get paid
by the VA for doing work on
eligible veterans) have done $8.-
68l 900 worth of actual treatments
and S878, 900 worth of examina-
tions during those three months.
VA staff dentists handled the rest.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics
has produced a 45o-page volume
called ''Occupational Outlook
Handbook" It's packed full OF
employment information. eco
nomic and occupational trends,
past and present, and a lot OF
other worthwhile stuff.
1t tells you. for example. the
occupational outlook in construc-
ton trades good, hotel jobs

book repeatedly warns that busi-
ness depression would, naturally,
give a quick new picture OF en-
ployment outlooks and that this
must be remembered by any one
studying it. 1t is to be revised
each year.
The second paragraph Of the
handbook says this: Perhaps the
two points about the occupational
field which most readily elude the
counselor or teacher concern the
extremely fluid character Of oc-
cupational factors and the relative
nature of all occupational data" "

Indians Playing
0iIm0nt Here

Browning Indians will play
host to the powerful Oilmont
team here tomorrow night. The
visiting quint is.headed by the
high-scoring Hathaway.
All through the season Oilmont
has been playing winning basket
ball, in contrast to Indifference
of the Indians.
This evening the Indians will
play the Coyotes at Shelby, with
the ambition of again trouncing
them as they did here in the re-
cent 1875 game.
The Indians in their recent
games across the mountains suf-
fered disasters, mainly to lack of
conditioning.
Losing to both Whitefsh and
Columbia Falls, the Indians in
both games had a big lead at
half-time, only to wind up at
the short end when the games
were over.
In the Whitefish game White
fish had garnered 80 points at the
end of the third quarter as to be
safely ahead. And by that time
three of the Indians had fouled
out.
The story of the Columbia
Falls game is quite similar.
Jim Croft of the Indions has
been making a brilliant show
ing. Team offense has been
good. Lacking is the defense.
Old Person has been shifted
back as guard, with likelihood of
a new face at the forward post.
Coach Fox said that his team
was anxious to get going in the
Oilmont game tomorrow night.

Blackfeet Needv

The economic plight of large

Several factors prevail as con-
tributing " the unhappy situa-
ton of this needy group, Pam
brun explained. Dominant is
the general unemployment situa-
ton, which in many cases recent
ly made necessary the return of
of number of people to the
reservation from places else
where because of the abrupt
work stoppage,
The situation of others in need
stems from the usual winter con-
ditions on the reservation in
which gainful employment is not
to be had, Pambrun said.
The plight of each is b elm g
thoroughly investigated by Pam
brun as to disqualify those who
might unjustly apply for relief,
grant of which would defeat the
purpose of the relief project.

Ideal Winter For
Stock Thus Far

From the standpoint of live.
stock welfare, the present winter
is one of the incest in many years,
declares w. K. Fitzpatrick, field
man for the Blackfeet T b a
Council.
He said that the open winter
thus far had preserved most of
the hay that had been put up last
summer and fall, a savings to be
cashed in upon next year if h e
remainder of this winter does not
make demands upon it to any
great extent.
Cattle and sheep on the res
ervation, he said, are in splendid
condition, although their popuIa-
ton, especially sheep, are con-
siderably less than normal years.
There is little snow on the res
ervation. he said. w h a t little
there is, is confined to are s
where recent drifting occurred.
One blessing, he pointed out,
was that there has been but little
fluctuation of temperatures.
Whereas in other winters when
severe cold was followed by
chinooks as to finally result in
grazing land being sealed off to
prevent feeding by livestock, this
winter the same areas are barren,
with livestock availed plenty of
feed. There has been practically
no chinooking thus far.

Old Man Chief In
Jail For Theft

Charged wit h petit larceny,
Louis Old Man Chief, 40, drew a
fine of $50 and a 6O-days term in
the county Jail at Cut B a k in
Judge Lukin's justice court Tues
day.
In sentencing him, Judge Lu-
kin specified that the defendant
serve out the full time in Jail,
with additional time in | i e u of
failure to pay the fine.
Old Man Chief allegedly stole
a suit of clot h e 8 from the
Women's Exchange the previous
day. Entering the establishment
as a customer, according to Mrs.
Walter Brandt, proprietor, he be-
came interested in the suit. With
other customers in the s It ore at
the m e, she temporarily gave
them her attention. During that
time Old Man Chief had left the
store, with one of the suits of
clothes being missing, she said.
Having reason to suspicion him
of theft, she got in touch vi t h
Constable Ed Colbert, who within
an hour had ocat e d him at a
place on Moccasin Flats. He was
taken in custody and at the local
Jail confessed the theft.
After the theft, according to
Constable Colbert, he had put on
the suit, wearing his regular suit
on the outside to n a | the
stolen property. He was stripped
to his shining cuticle and the
stolen suit restored to its owner.
Pleading guilty in court, he
blamed his act upon drunkenness,
Judge Lukin reminded him that
drunkenness is not a valid excuse
for wrong doing.

County Gets
First Warrant
For Hospital

A warrant of $62,612.S1 to aid
IN the realization of the new Gla-
cier County Memorial Hospital
at Cut B n k was received by
County Commissioner E. L.
Anderson last week from the
State of Montana, the money be-
ing the first to be received under
conditions of the Federal Aid Act
of last year.
Like darling letter containing
money from home" arrival of
the warrant was greeted with
just delight by those of Cut Bank,
who are called upon to do t he
worrying in t h e county's most
worthy project.
The Pioneer Press dramatized
the occasion by carrying an APP
propriate picture Of the warrant.
Accompanying it was the follow
ing story setting forth develop
ments up to the present:
How soon the first patient
wou d be admitted to Glacier
County Memorial hospital was
not easy to say at he moment,
but Contractor Jim Stack S aid
the building would be ready to
move in the furniture by Febru-
airy /. Plasterers were completing
the upstairs, would have the
basement done in a week or so.
The interior painting was still to
be done.
Good n W S of the week was
when Commissioner E. L. Ander-
son fished a warrant against the
State of Montana out of the mail
in the amount of S62,612.S1 and
turned it over to the county
treasurer. 1t was the first pay
ment of federal money, subject
to negotiation for the past year.
The amount p a d the federal
governments 1-3 share based on
estimates to September l. More
money vii | be coming. though
t h exact amount cannot yet be
determined.
Last application papers sent to
federal and S a G public health
authorities in Helena had the cost
of t h hospital set at 1924, 600.
but as local contributions flow in,
the amount of the federal grant
is effected. every 50 being match
ed with 81.
So far contributions by organ
izations and individuals in the re-
cent d r v e co-ordinated by the
Chamber of Commerce. total
about 1923, 600. Arrival of the fed
eral money gives assurance that
every detail has been arranged
to give Cut Bank and the county
an excellent hospital. Being the
first institution erected under the
Federal Hospital Aid act, it will
serve as a model for future
grants. Each contribution of sub
stantial amount adds to it's per-
lection, brings more f eral
money.
