SPORTSMEN WANT END TO EVASIvE ANSWERS BY

planting of ANY surplus elk from

This past week, through the office
of Cong. Mansfield, the sportsmen
have received an answer from r. e.
M.cArdle of the Forest Service head
quarters in Washington. Mr.. Nc
Ardle's answer to the associations
requests, according to the wildlife
group is frankly evasive and they
have advised Mansfield that Eve are
entitled to this information without
evasion of the subject matter.
In addition to reiterating their re-
quest that the Forest Service stop
meddling in Fish & Game Depart
ment business and that Forester Han
sen comply as to availability of pub

poses, the association has now filed
a third request in the interests of

POWER LOBBY SETS new BOBBY TRAP FOR REAs

Washington, D. C.-CNS- Com
mercial power companies, trying tc
set up Rural Identification Week
starting August 26, have employed
new gimmick to trap coop, farm
organization and government lead
ers into "going along"
An earlier press release set the
stage for the electric utilities to take
credit for electrifying rural America.
The attempt was to emphasize the
role of the power companies in the
movement, leaving in the background
the electric co-operatives, which with
REA help made the greatest con-
tribution.

from, using the terms business

Take, for example, the Step Pyr-

of stone masonry existing in the
world today.

Egypt, the spirit or double car
enjoy life in the next world only
as long as the body keeps its shape
That is why so much money is spent
to embalm the bodies of kings
mobiles and rich men. The priests
are experts in this field, and they
say. that their best work in embalm-
ing will make the body last for
ever.
THAT solves only part of the
problem. Another part is to cover
the body so well that it will never
be reached by robbers or others who
may want to disturb it."
The effort of the famous archi-
tect seems to have failed. The
Step Pyramid has been entered
during modern times, but those
who went through the inner pas
sages failed to find the royal num-
my. Possibly there are passages
not yet found, leading to a chamber
where King zoser still rests, but
this is only guess.

each is 80 feet.
The man who designed the Step
Pyramid was named Imhotep. He
was told by the monarch to build
a tomb, and the result was the
Step Pyramid. Each step is set in
to the extent of about 61a feet.
Imhotep knew that his master
wanted very strong tomb. If you
had asked the architect the rea-

1t was undoubtedly the opening

the outcome. West opened the

convinced South that the spade
king and in all probability the ten
as well were held by East, and he
seemed to worry about this situa-
tion for the rest of the play.
Winning with the spade ace,
South cashed the heart king and
then let the heart jack ride for a

he then cashed the club king and,
after some thought, shifted to a

that West must have had at least
three spades since South, with four

FRANK CIVILIZATIONS OF
PROGRAMS SOUGHT

Determined that these "grassroots"
expressions should provide the great
est possible amount of farmer opin-
ion on the various federal programs,
both the Department of Agriculture
and the state agricultural mobiliza-
! ton committee are encouraging the
holding of community discussions.
The sending out of prepared ques-
tionnaires by county committees is
frowned upon. Likewise self-anal-
ysis by employees of various agencies
will not be accepted in lieu of farmer
participation in the review.
The intent of the review, according
to state mobilization chairman, r. J.
McKenna, Bozeman, is " to en-
courage widespread discussion of ag-
ricultural policies and programs as
they relate to family farms, and to
obtain recommendation and sugges-
tions resulting from such open dis
cussion for consideration of the de-
partment's continuing policy to re-
view efforts for improvement of its

Sen. Murray Urges More

Slashlng OF reclamation programs constitutes serious
blow to this nation which cannot be mere dollars

President Truman to include $3.50 reclamation in
his fiscal 1853 budget Reclamation budget for the

per cent. The national growth
was only 1913 per cent. The
millions of new people in the
area must be fed from irri-
gated land, the only source of
food in the area.
90 The federal treasury stands
to gain every year increasing
income from western areas de-
veloped and maintained by
reclamation. From 191 O
through 1850, the federal
treasury gained PA billion
dollars in income and other
taxes from reclamation areas.
The projects that have made
possible this federal tax gain
have cost only half billion
dollars.
1.-The need for economy in view of
our huge military budget is recog-
nized, but when we consider the large
sums being spent by the United States
for construction of reclamation and
public works projects in foreign
countries under our ECA and point
programs, I feel that members of
Congress will recognize that $780,
100000 reclamation and multiple
project construction program
will be less than 1s of 10 of our Ma
tional Budget. The saving of a few
million dollars through refusing ap-
for new reclamation
projects is, therefore, not justified
in view of need for strengthening the
economy of the United States.
SAT EVE POST, PLEASE NOTE
"All of these projects are reim-
bursable and actually do not cost
the government single dollar.
Under the reclamation laws the
costs of projects chargeable to ir-
rigation and power must be fully

fiscal year is SGU2 million.
Under the $3.50 million budget
proposed by Sen. Murray it would be
possible to undertake fifteen "new
starts" scattered over the eleven
western states. Cost of the "new
starts" during fiscal 1853 would tot
al $50 million.
The program for Montana would
include: Yellowtail Dam, 81 million;
Lower Marias, S4,75O,0OO, and Mis-
souri, diversion unit, $5,5O0,0OO.
Enlarging on his condemnation of
reclamation-fund slashing Murray
continues:
"The reclamation program which
has been carried on in this country
over the years is one of the most
meritorious programs ever to be in
stituted by the Congress. 1t is a
method of controlling the waste
waters of our rivers and putting them
to use in retaining great stretches
of land which would otherwise re-
main unproductive.
at contributes also to the lessen
ing. of flood damage and aids in pro-
tecting the valuable surface soils of
our agricultural lands. Heretofore,
those invaluable soils have been per-
mitted to be flooded down the riv-
ers to the seas, filling our harbors
and causing costly works to be I'M
