which occurred in all 3anS but
caused less loss in the qtAer two.
The mortality from IL to "a weeks
was essentially the same in all lots.
The Leg-Hamps were heavier
than the Leghorns at "a weeks, but
lighter than the New Hampshires
by about half pound.
Egg production was heavier in the
Leg-Hamp pen-by almost "a eggs
than in the New Hampshire pen. It
was also heavier than in the White
Leghorn pen by Z eggs. The Austria
whites laid almost as well as the
Leg-Hamps, even though consider
ably more broodiness was observed
in this pen than in any of the other
three.
The feed required to produce
dozen eggs was lowest in the Leg
Hamp pen, being 6.41 lbs, and high
est in the New Hampshire pen, av-
eraging 7.94.
Readers not familiar with the Leg
HampS and Austra-Whites may
wonder what these crosses look like.
The Leg-Hamps carried more of the
Leghorn characteristics and body
type appearance than they did Of
the New Hampshire. Color varies
from solid white to almost solid red
in individual birds. The Austria
whites were more uniform in plum
age color than the Leg-Hamps and
carried splashing of black feathers
in predominantly white plumage.
The body type was slightly larger
than in the Leg -Hamps, as shown by
the average 24-week body weight.
Many Crosses Available
Many poultry crosses are on the
market and available to Montana
producers. Two of the best for egg
production are Austra-whites and
Leg -Hamps. These and inbred hy-
brids may prove superior under GER
tain conditions, to pure breeds. The
present cost of inbred hybrids, how
ever, may make crossbreds better
buy and more profitable to most
producers. Whether or not cross
breds have any advantage over the
pure breeds because of the formers
increased egg production and nor
mally better INABILITY will depend
upon Individual farm circumstances
Hatching eggs cannot, of course
be sold from crossbreds. Some mar
kets do not like the tinted eggs pro.
duced by the most common crosses
which include both white and brown
egg parents. Crosses of poor paren
stock may not be any better pro
ducers or live any better than gooc
strains of pure breeds.
All of these things have to b
taken into consideration in the Sc
lection of variety, breed or eros
of poultry to keep on the farm
There is at present, however, a def
mite increasing popularity of cross
breds and inbred hybrids. The for
mer are more readily available t
Montana poultry producers thai

TACOMA, Wash. Sept. 27.--A
Red China propaganda leaflet de-
scribed as "vile but professionally
done" has been found in the mails
addressed to a former Tacoma
mother of United States soldier
killed in Korea.
It was found when postal off,
cials opened an envelope addressed
to the Tacoma woman, who had
left no forwarding address.
Acting Postmaster John Nc
Monagle said it was published
under the auspices of the Red
Cross Society of China and mailed
from Czechoslovakia. 1t included

they were forced to take part in
atrocities against North Korean

Southwest Project
Architect Files Suit

Arthur p. Davis, an architect,
of 1925 M street NV, has filed
suit against the District Redevel-
opment Land Agency. asking pay
ment of $1,000 he said is due him
for professional work in connec-
ton with the Southwest redevel-
opment project now being planned.
Filed yesterday in District
Court. the suit alleges the agency
had agreed to pay Mr.. Davis
So 500 for work on the plans and
$500 for architectural consult
ing services. The suit says the
agency refuses payment. Mr.. Davis
contends that $4,000 is a reason
able sum for his various services
in connection with the project.
The Redevelopment Land Agen-
cy said today it refused payment
because his contract had never
been approved by the Housing
and Home Finance Agency, as re-
quired by law.
Attorney Bernard I. Nordlinger,
representing Mr.. Davis, said the
controversy grew out of the agen-
cy'S refusal to submit his clients
plan to the National Capital Plan
ming Commission, unless Mr..
Davis filed waiver of compensa-
tion with the land agency. The
attorney added that Mr.. Davis
brought the suit to establish that
he did not agree to perform
services on the project without
compensation.
John r. Searles, jr., executive
director Of the land agency, said
today the suit will be contested
on the ground that Mr.. Davis had
never qualified for the final SUBJ
mission of his plan. Only those
plans that have received HHFA
approval. he said, may be SUBJ
mitted under the law.

Mrs. Anna Barnett Dies;
Widow Of Richest Indian
BY the Associated Press

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 9.-Mrs.
Anna Laura Lowe Barnett, 72,
white widow of a man once known
as "the worlds richest Indian" !"
died today, penniless and vic
tenn of cancer.
Mrs. Barnett was married for
IA years to Jackson Barnett, &C.
centric Greek Indian who made a
fortune in Oklahoma oil. She was
deprived of a share of his three
million dollar estate after a Fed
eral court ruled the marriage was
not valid, holding the husband
had been mentally incompetent.
Mrs. Barnett married "Crazy
jack" as the old Indian was
known, in 1920, a year after oil
was discovered on his small farm
near Henryetta. Okla. Later the
Government, as guardian of the
illiterate Indian, charged she was
an adventures" who "kidnap-
ped" him.
The couple moved to Los Angeles
to a stately white mansion on
fashionable Wiltshire Blvd. The
place became a landmark and
Mr.. Barnett a legend. 1t amused
him to direct traffic at busy inter-
sections. He passed out $40 bills
for scent cigars.
Two months before Mr.. Bar
nett's death at 80 in 1884 the court
ruled the marriage invalid. In 1889
an Oklahoma Federal court
awarded the estate to three groups
of Indians and Mrs. Barnett was
elected from her mansion by
Federal agents, armed with tear

in 1886. Others helped, notably
the late George N. Judd of the
printing firm of Judd & Detweiler,
who owned cottage at Skyland,
and Mr.. Zerkel of Luray. But it
was Mr.. Pollock who sold the
scenery to the commissioners once
he got them on the mountain.
Under the authorization bill the
Government was not to spend
money on land. 1t could accept a
large tract. Skyland was only
5 900 acres. The park is over $780,
900. There was a public appeal for
funds to buy the Blue Ridge from
Front Royal south. In his memoirs
Mr.. Pollock credited the Washing
ton Star with making the success
of this drive possible. A reporter
was assigned to write all he could
about the beauties of the noun
tains which a park would open to
the public. The public pledged ST.
100000. Virginia appropriated 81
million. Senator Byrd then was
Governor. The stock market crash
of 1929 struck the country before
the money pledged was collected
and the park was delayed until a
bodybuilding program under
President Hoover made the start
of the Skyline possible. The Gov
eminent has spent a little more
than SIS million building the drive
a bargain as it runs los
miles along the crest of the ridge.
It must have been a heartbreak
for Mr.. Pollock when the National
Park Service decided he was too
old to run the concessions on the
drive, including Skyland. But he
was privileged character in the
park as long as he lived. He died
in 1949 and, in accordance with
his wishes, his ashes were scat
tered from the crest of the noun
tain that he loved so we'll.

He was little man and dapper
He dressed like Teddy Roosevelt's
Rough Riders. He brought the
horses to the mountaintop. He
was so fond of animals that he
used to ride with a dog in his
lap.
He always wore two big pistols
in holsters. He had trouble with
the mountain people from the
first. They resented his intrusion
and some were squatting on the
land on which he gained title
Mr.. Pollock succeeded in spread
ing the word that he could clip
the head of a rattlesnake shoot
ing from the hip. They were
afraid to tackle him even in am
bush.
Thomas r. Henry, science edi-
tor of The Star, and DR.. Mandel
Sherman, a University of Chicago
sociologist, wrote a book on the
mountain people near Skyland
In Corbin Hollow no one could
read or write. About 20 years ago,
when the study was made, no
child had seen the American flag
or heard the Lords Prayer.
The scientists found some in
teresting things. The little chill
dren were as healthy and as apt
as the average. While there wasn't
toothbrush in Corbin Hollow
instances of cavities among the
children were about one-thlrd
compared with community
nearer the valley into which the
Toothbrush had been introduced.
But, after Z, the children's
mental growth was retarded and
after Is the teeth were pretty well
gone. The first seemed due to
Limitations of experience; the
second to inadequate diet. Candy
and ice cream were unknown to
the children. Their treat was a
chew of tobacco and they began
chewing not long after they were
Iweaned, something that did not
happen until infancy was well
over.
Richard Evelyn Byrd, the father
of the Senator, had a cottage at
Skyland, a fortunate circumstance
which helped make the park pos
sible. Harry Flood Byrd, the Sena-
tor, is very fond of the place.
One day in February, 1924, Mr.,
Pollock received a clipping from
The Star mailed to him by a
friend, Harold Allen, an attorney
in the Justice Department. The
clip told of the appointment by
Secretary of the Interior Hubert
Work of commission to recon-
mend a site for a national park in
