Monfunu Continues
Boom Birth Rate

HELENA-Montana is heading
for its seventh consecutive year
of record births.
Figures released by the State
Board of Health office of Vital
Statistics reveal that in the first
six months of 1854 births in Mon
tana are up 5-4 percent over the
same period last year.
Last year 16,479 births were re-
corded in Montana-the largest
number of births ever recorded in
the state.
In the first six months of this
year, 8,172 births have been re-
corded as compared with 8,O96
births recorded in the first SIX
months of 1858.
Starting with 1948, a record
high number of births have been
recorded in Montana every subse-
quent year. The number of births
recorded each year in the state has
nearly tripled since 1910 when
only 6,124 births were recorded.
Other vital statistics figures an
nounced by the State Board of
Health today reveal:
The total number of deaths re-
corded in the state in the first six
months of 1854 (2,956) is down 6.8
percent from the total deaths re-
corded for the same period last
year (3,181).
Infant deaths for the first six
months of 1854 (198) reflect an
1879 per cent decline from the in
fant deaths recorded in the same
period last year (244).

VANDALISM SCARS IN CITY

Saturday night wasn't the lonli-
est night in the world in our city.
Apparently there was much activi-
ty in the wee hours as number of
windows of business houses tink-
led in tune to the drunken rioting
of group of vandals that busted
themselves heaving first rocks and
as the party progressed, full bot
ties of beer through local mer-
chants plate glass.
This isn't the common, Saturday
night practice, here in Browning.
But, it seems to be becoming more
and more way in which alcoholic
logged minds are finding a re-
lease.
Some action is going to have
to be taken, and taken in the near
future before these few offenders
add to their ranks. After all, not
anyone can make war on windows.
Takes pretty brave man, full of
cheap booze to commit such acts
of vandalism.
The Tribal Council is consider
ing certain actions designed to
help bring a halt to such acts of
vandalism. This is but right.
1t is respectfully suggested that
city officials and the Tribal Coun-
Gil unite their efforts and establish
a night force which would enable
the arrests of such vandals, and
thus put an end to the depreda-
tions of last weekend.
But, it should be kept in mind
that establishing a police force to
patrol the town at night isn't the
complete answer, although it
would be a big step in the right
direction. 1t will be necessary for
the Tribal Council to hurry their
action on the adoption of neces-
sary laws that will enable enough
of a penalty to be levied on wrong
doers that a one-shot treatment
will bring them to see the light. A
slap on the wrist won't deter even
a child for long.
LAWS NEED TEETH
Recently a little girl was run
over by group of youths and
was injured badly. The car didn't
stop to give aid to the child, but
continued on its way. Needless to
say, the group had been drinking.
The group was apprehended by
local police shortly after the crime.
and arraigned before the bar of
justice. But where was Justice?
She wasn't present. Due to the
lack of proper laws covering such
crimes on the reservation only
token punishment could be meted |
out to the driver and those ac-
companying him. i
This, then, was not a case OF |
lack of policing power, for an ar
rest was made within an hour.
It is a case which indicates the
need for the Tribal Council to
adopt necessary laws to enable
punishment to be handed out that
fits the crime.
The Tribal Council is making
headway in devising legal means
in curbing such crimes as drunk
eness, larceny, etc. Jail sentences
in the near future will be served
cutting wood for the welfare pro-
gram. This is a step in the right
direction. In addition, the Council
has had under advisement, action
that would have enabled correct
nllnishment for the Youths who I
Hungry Horse news., 1954-10-08

ran over the little girl, if it had
been enacted.
May we respectfully suggest to
the Council that they hurry ac-
ton on this particular problem. 1t
may not happen again for years,
but it could happen tomorrow
to your child.

proximately 100000 pounds of the
local nuts having been purchased
here.
There was no auction market in
a sense that potatoes and other
produce is sold but Fred nj. Jer-

private enterprise and was a brok-

The volume was beyond even
his expectations, and he has ex-

Tabor City long known as a
market for practically everything
the farmer grows had been With
out purchasing agents for pccans
and the success of that venture
this season is expected to be an

Pecan growers are plentiful in
this area but in years past their
nuts had 10 be hauled rather long
distances in order to reach the
brokers. The local market this
season was genuine service TO
