George Schatz was born in Aber-
deem, South Dakota on February
%, 1880. In 1907 he married Fran
ces Evelyn Geiger, and in 1910 the
couple come to Montana, locating
near Havre. In 194l they came to
Troy and have resided here since.
He was a devout Catholic and in his
sermon Father O'Malley spoke very
lfeelingly of the wonderful example
the departed was to fellow Chris
tians. Funeral services were held
on May "a at St. Joseph's Catholic
Church. Interment was in Troy
cemetery.

DRY his wife, Frances at the home;
two sons, Eugene in Chicago and

Those from out-of-town attend

Truly each and all of them have a
date with the future, and are will
ing to accept the challenge to youth
that the turbulent present brings
them.
Mr. Smith McNeill an alumnus
of Troy high school and graduate
in law from the State University
at Missoula stated he would deal in
futures. He took issue against the
people who feel the future holds
disaster and chaos. He delved into
history to show that chaos is a
chronic condition of each genera
ton and he figures the present
state is much over-rated. Youth
with its courageous spirit has sue
ceeded before and it will again. In
concluding Mr.. McNeill said that
the future belongs to those who
plan and those who dare.
Those present hope that Supt.
Hodges has established a precedent
and will give us more speakers

TROY Vets Lose

Troy Vets lost heartbreaker last
Sunday to a fighting Cranbrook
nine in a fast, loosely played ball
game. Gray starting his first game
for Troy gave up five bases on
balls and two hits in the two in
nings he worked. This combined
with three errors by his team
mates gave the Canucks a five run
lead. The Vets tried hard and Tay-
lor'S long line double with runners
on second and third brought in two
runs in the third, the rally died
however as the next two hitters
grounded out. Little Al Anderson
set them down in order the next
two innings but was nicked for
three doubles in the fifth, and an
overthrow of first gave Cranbrook
three more tallys. One in the sixth
and another in the seventh COM
pleted the Canadian scoring.
Troy filled the bases in the 9th
on two bases on balls, Ray Lind
sey's single bringing in one run,
but again the rally died. Troy
scored two more in the ninth but
Young found a reserve somewhere
and struck out the last batter to
end the game. On the whole the
Troy kids played good ball and
showed promise of winning plenty
of games before the season is over.

Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru. Prime

Before the day was done, the

had brought to the American
Government and the American

uppermost in the mind Of the Gov

India, or he as India's leader
stand in the cold war between the
United States and Russia? The
answer, in effect, is that India
wants no part of that war.
Reflects World Experience.
Nehru may not be all-wise, but
he was rejecting the whole
worlds experience when he said:

camps precipitates the conflict

This Is Nehru's first visit to

Nehru's Message to America Does
Not Touch Our Jittery Congress

people were bringing to q gro
tesque climax the consequences OF
the fears Nehru deplored. A jit-

forcing on the President and his
administration the expenditure
of vastly more money for national

asked for or was prepared te
spend. Scrap the plan for 49,

President; give us So groups. Con-

Anyhow, Congress is scared and
isn't taking any chances. Who are

us in our jitters? Bring 'em in

dollars? Make it seventeen!
The man from India must find
the mood Of our highest law

assuring. He knows what it will
mean to his country if fear rules
the decisions made in Russia and
the United States. India will be
squarely in the middle of
the resulting conflict and the in
dependence achieved by peaceful
patience will be lost more quickly
than it was gained. He can only
hope that one of the two con-
tending countries will listen as he
says:
"The colossal expenditure of
energy and resources on arma-

feature of many national budgets

This Changing World
France Encourages News About u. S.
As Self.Defense Against Communists

When the strike waves in 194s
threatened to disrupt the early
phases of recovery one Of the
most effective government wea-
pons was to tell the strikers that
If they continued to show them
selves unreasonable America
would have to slow down or per-
haps stop her shipments to
France completely. Thus hav-
ing started broad campaign to
publicize American support, the
French government could not let
down. Because of this official
French publicity our activities are
better known by the French
masses than in most other Mar
shall Plan countries.
Given Full Story.
The Public Affairs Division of
the American Embassy here is
headed by a hard-working Of
flcer, William A. Tyler. 1t has
taken full advantage of the good
will of the French government
and is supplying the French press
and radio with much pertinent
material. The worth and quantity
of American help are being faith
fully told. The Public Affairs Di-
vision no longer sends French edi-
tors long dissertations on what
Lincoln did for his country and
what an excellent thing the Amer
lean Constitution is. This type of
release readily found its way into
the editors wastebaskets.
BY close personal contacts and
by an active supply of news other
than that sent by legitimate
French and American news agen-
cies, the French daily and weekly
publications are given the full
story of the vast and costly under
taking on the part of the United
States to save Europe and West
ern civilization.
Some cynical French news
papermen occasionally do say we
are a Quixotic nation and gen.
timely wonder how long we shall
be able to stand the expenditure
involved in our unprecedented
help to Europe. But the story is
being told fully by the French
government and the American
officials in France.
To say that the usually calcu-
lating French are deeply moved
would certainly be an exaggera-
ton. They are realists in politics,
which is virtue rather than a
fault. They know that the Ameri-
can government is not spending
its substance on Europe out of
love or any other emotional rea-
son. but because it feels that Eu-
rope must be saved for America S
own security. And they know that
France is the pivot of Europe S
resistance against Eastern aggres-
sion.
In the minds Of all politically
thinking Frenchmen-and there
are many-the Atlantic pact and
its corollary, the military aid pro-
gram. are simply the equals of the
Marshall Plan. which America
| found necessary to adopt once the
Russians showed their true colors.
