tration, and now an attorney in Den
yer, will chair one of the important
panels at the 10th Annual Montana
Farmer Labor Institute in Missoula,
November 20,21,22, James S. TIMBER
institute president announced this

invitation to attend the annual farm
er-labor seminar was made known at
meeting of the institutes executive
committee in Helena, Tuesday. The
institute, as in past years, will be
held on the campus of Montana State
University.
Brannan will lead a discussion on
the important relationship of parity

closely tied together is the economic
welfare of the two groups. Robert
C. Weller, Business representative

Sawmill Workers, has been invited to
act as consultant on this panel.
Several other prominent speakers
are scheduled to appear before the

of the Continental Divide in Glacier
Park. Alberta for some years has
been in process of increasing utiliza-
ton of these waters for irrigation
in the province. At the same time
north Montana farmers have need for
sufficient run-off from the two rivers
to provide irrigation for approx
mately 100000 acres. Due to difficult
terrain problems, no financially feas-
ible way has yet been uncovered by
which run-off from these streams can
be diverted to north Montana be-
fore the waters enter Canada. There
is apprehension that, once Alberta
puts Belly-W aterton run-off to maxi
mum use, these waters will be lost
forever to Montana. The last legis-
lature, aware of this danger, reassert-
ed Montana's rights to these waters.

Failure of Secretary of Interior
Douglas Mckay to continue to repre-

of support of Hells Canyon multiple

Last spring, Montana suggested to
the commission, then meeting in
Washington, the present treaty COW
ering the St. Mary's river be re
vised to give this state much larger
amount of the run-off of that stream
in lieu of Belly Waterton. Unless
agreement can be reached on revi-
sion of the St. Mary's treaty, the
United States will have to expend a
huge amount of money to put in tun-
nels' and other diversionary installa-
lions to keep Belly-W aterton run
off in this country. Otherwise, this
much-needed irrigation water will go
to the Canadians by default.

MUCH ACTIVITY, HARD WORK,
IN PAST IL MONTHS

IN PAST IL MON his
In addition to the increased effort
put forth to enlarge the membership
of farm families by more than so
per cent, that more effective fight
ing organization could take lead
ing role in the battle to stave off dis
astrous farm prices, MFU took part
in many other worthwhile activities
in the last year.
On the farm front, various Farm
ers Union organizations played an i'm
portant role in stopping anti-co-op
legislation in Helena last winter. Like
wise MFU persistence is credited with
finally jarring loose relief funds in
Secretary Benson's Agriculture de-
partment, for aiding the flooded-out
victims in II north Montana counties.
MFU and FUGTA carried the major
portion of the load in taking the case
for marketing quotas and acreage al
lotments to Montana wheat farmers,
with the result that wheat growers
voted more than 95 per cent for
quotas at the August IA Production
& Marketing Administration election.
MFU along with other state Flu or
CARNATIONS work e d shoulder to
shoulder with NFU to save vital APP
preparations for U. S. Department of
Agriculture in the 83rd Congress.
WITH OTHER
GROUPS
On the public relations side MFU
officials co-operated with business,
professional and labor groups in a.
number of fields of joint endeavor.

Attorney General BrowneIl Gets

Society News
By Daisy Sheridon

The Nations officials were
coming and going but refraining
from entertaining over one of
the hottest weekendS in WASH
ington.
The female members of the
second family in the land arrived
home. Mrs. Nixon, wife of the
Vice President, and their two
daughters. Tricia, z, and Julie,
S, are back after a month at
Montoloking, N. j.
The Vice President was only
able to spend three weekendS
away from his desk with his
pretty wife and daughters, but
the girls claim to have had a fine
time and enjoyed a certain
amount of privacy, something
of a rarity to them.
The Nixons rented an ocean
front cottage from the United
States Ambassador to Australia,
Amos Peaslee. They did enjoy
some of the social functions over
the weekends at the Mantolok-
ing and Bay Head Yacht clubs
but a summer rest was the most
important part of the vacation.
The social demands on Mrs.
Nixon have been anything but
slight since her husband became
Vice President.
BrowneIIs Enjoy the He0t
A far cry from the usual COM
ment of summer in Wash
ington is that of the wife of the
Attorney General. Mrs. Herbert
Brownell says, 1--WE have loved
our first summer in Washington.
It has been a children's summer
and we are ENJOYING the
heat"
All four of the junior Brown
ellis have been home and prac-
tically every day one or more
of them have had house guests.
This entertaining fourSome are
Joan, II, Ann. Is, Thomas Nc
Carter, IL and James Baker. 8.
At the moment houseguests
are a nephew of Mrs. Brownell's.
Kirk McCarter Of Artesia, N.
Mex, and Stephen Chinlund of
New York City. Both are college
students. The flow of visitors
will continue until September
10.
All four Of the Brownells are
avid sports enthusiasts with
swimming and riding their fa-
vorites. Ann, her mother says, is
in blue jeans six days a week.
Her idea of a perfect way to
get ones higher education is
coming up in the fall.
School on Horseback
She will go to the Prescott
School in Arizona this fall for
her last two years of high school.
This is a working ranch and she
plans to get her fill of riding.
Saturday morning breakfast
conversation hit a high point of
in this household. Like |
most husbands, the Attorney
General was buried in the morn
ing paper. It seems that a report |
came out in New York (the
nome town. that his
wife had discovered a new way
to keep slender.
1t was said that the way Doris
keeps an ideal figure
is to walk around on her tiptoes
even at parties. Mrs. Brownell
did not deny this but admitted
with a chuckle that she was in
for a good bit of teasing. So on
your toes, ladies!
Anderson Kept Busy
A busy summer at home has
also been the lot of the Secretary
of the Navy and Mrs. Anderson.
The Secretary has been putting

q flying trip OF one week to
Texas.
Last week the guest rooms
were occupied by Mr.. and Mrs.
Lee Kirkwood and their daugh-
ter. Pat, IA, Of Fort Worth. On
the spur Of the moment Mrs.
Anderson and her guests decided
1T would be fun to go on a fling
to New York. This took on spe-
cial meaning since the Kirk
woods had never been there.
ReoI Thrill
All had a whirl and especially
Pat. Two things that happened
that thrilled her down to her
school girl toes were riding on
an elevator with Marlene Dietrich
and sitting next to Ann Sothern
at a play. It PROBABLY never
occurred to her that she had
been staying with one of the
Nations top figures-after all,
Pat has known Mr.. Anderson all
her life.
Mrs. Anderson is hoping to
take her two sons on a hunting
trip to Labrador on September
4 for a week. Maybe I'll make
some real news then," said Mrs.
Anderson with her delightful
thick Texas drawl. I'm gonna
shoot bear!"
Undersecretary of State and
Mrs. Donold B. Lourie got back
to town on Saturday after being
away for two weeks. Mr.. Lourie
had been on a business trip to
Central America and Mrs. Lourie
went home to Winnetka, H., for
her first visit there since they
came to Washington last winter.
OfficioIs Set Poee
Residential society seems to be
following the trend of the off,
cials-a bit of travelling here and
there but no party throwing.
Mr.. and Mrs. George Breed are
again ensconsed in their attrac-
tive Georgetown house after a
Six-weeks' trip to Hawaii and
San Francisco. With them went
Jane Breeds six-year-old daugh-
ter, Deena.
Highlight of the trip for Mrs.
Breed was when she landed a
200-pound tuna. It was her
first try at deep sea fishing and
so the saying still stands, be-
ginner's luck.
Another attractive young cou-
pie that are back in time for the
heat wave are Comdr. and Mrs.
Means johnson. They have just
returned after a seven-month
tour of duty in Hawaii and are
busily doing over their old house
in Alexandria.
