TWO LEGISLATIVE EXPENSE
MEASURES

Sub. HB 4, embodying the principal
provisions of HB A by Rep. Ole Gun
derson D-Cascade), has been ad-
vanced to the printing stage by the
House committee on seating, mileage
and per diem. The bill would permit
legislators up to SIS day for neces-
sary living expenses provided such
expenses ar covered by vouchers or
receipts.
A similar bill, HB IL, by Rep. Allen
Goodgame (D-Lincoln) would pro-
vide up to maximum of $500 day
to augment the current grossly in
adequate $1,000 daily wage.
Another bill by Gunderson, lib 5,
would materially increase the maxi
mum allowable reimbursable daily ex-
pense of state employees when official
business takes them away from their
headquarters. Particularly important
in HB 5 is the provision to increase
the maximum daily expense amount
for state officials when they are out
side the state to $40.
Salaries of state elected officials |
would be brought more into line with |
present inflated values and would |
make state office more attractive to
the highest caliber men the state has i
to offer, under HB Ii by Rep. James
Wood (D-Chouteau). Also sponsor
ing HB 10 are Reps. Gunderson,
Wayne McAndrews (D-Deer LODGE,
Robert Durkee (D-Hill), and Lloyd
Barnard (D-Valley). The proposed
along with present annual
salary schedules in parenthesis, is as

Cobells Home From
Motor Trip Through
Seven Western States

A project of happy memories,
inspired by sights and scenes
they saw on a recent 4,300-mile
motor trip through seven west
ern states was carried out by Mr.
and Mrs. Fred Cobeli and son,
Fred Jr., and Mrs. Cobeils moth
er, Mrs. Susie Aubrey.
Returning home last Friday,
they had visited North and South
Dakota. Colorado, Wyoming, Ne
vada, Utah and New Mexico. The
only disagreeable experience, Co
bell said, was the dust storm
they encountered in the vicinity
of Albuquerque.
At Deadwood, S. D., they saw
the Mount Rushmore busts of
four great American presidents
Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln
and Theodore Roosevelt-carved
upon a granite mountain.
They motored up famed Pixies
Peak, whose elevation is over
$4,000 feet. A trip out Of Colora-
do Springs, Colo, which may be
made either by an old cog-wheel
train or winding highway. it is
worthwhile experience, Cobell
says.
They stood at the edge of the
! Grand Canyon of the Colorado
and had occasion to witness how
water during period of at least
two million years had carved a
mile deep canyon out of layers
of rock laid down when the earth
was young.
They enjoyed listening to the
famed Ids pipe organ in the
Salt Lake City Tabernacle.
They visited the Great Hoover
Dam out of Las Vegas and in
Las Vegas they were stunned by
the great stacks of shiny dollars
in the gaming houses. Fred took
a whirl at the "one-armed ban
dts" coming out the short end
1t was constantly new expert
ence every day, Fred said. Ye'

Three in Crash
On Depot Road;
Car Demolished

A 1854 OldSmobile with three
occupants left the depot road as
it was within approximately 400
feet of the No. 2 Highway inter-
section early Saturday morning,
two escaping with no serious in
juries, aside from bruises. The
third, a Brockett, Alberta Indian
girl of II, suffered a long deep
cash from her forehead to the
back of her head. Aside from that
she appeared to be suffering no
other serious injuries.
The three-Donald L. Benja-
min, ID, and Charles Skryta, 81,
of Shelby, and Doris Rabbit, the
Brocket girl-were driving along
the depot road at around three
that morning. The car instead of
staying in the slight curve of the
road took straight shoot to the
left, as to 60 over a steep en-
bankment. Almost paralleling the
road as it went, it came to a sud-
den stop when it hit a one-ton
boulder, the impact moving the
obstacle fully 10 feet to the side.
The car was completely de-
molished as it apparently turned
on its side in sliding along the
dirt some so feet. A spare tire
in the trunk of the car was
thrown 100 feet away from the
wreckage.
The three we're later taken to
the local hospital, the Rabbit
girl having been there since.
Benjamin, soldier at the Air
Base at Great Fails, and Skryta
were kept for observation at the
hospital throughout Saturday.
Benjamin was later removed to
the Base Hospital at Great Falls.
The scene of the wreck was
viewed by many throughout Sun
day, an object lesson of what
sometimes happens when an i'm.
movable body meets an irresis.
table force. In this case the i'm
movable body really did move.

Roundup Plans Are
Making Progress;
Cooperation Given

The Blackfeet Roundup, spon-
sored by o. K. Davis and assoc
iates, scheduled for Sunday and
Monday, July 3 and 4, has all the
prospects of one of Browning's
finest outdoor shows.
This week crews are busy re-
building the rodeo equipment at
the Browning fair grounds. In
fact, said Davis, much of it is an
entirely new Improvement. Buck
ing chutes, fences, blading of the
arena and race track and other
miscellaneous needs are keeping
the workers busy daily.
AS time passes the program
for the two days gets more COM
plete. This is apparent from the
contracting of a midway show.
which will include adult and
children's rides, etc.
There is considerable specula-
ton among race track followers
as to what is to happen when
several prize horses compete.
From the outside are to come
some of the horses that compete
annually in Alberta as well as
Shelby and Great Falls, accord
ing to reliable reports.
Unless Bill Show has Slipped"
he will have one or two on the
track. With four races daily, some
real excitement may be expect
ed.
Lucky betters will be on hand
to win. Others, never lucky, will
surely be on hand to prove that
big heaps" may be accumulated
with the patient use of brooms
and shovels.
This week businessmen's do
nation to help care for prelimin-
airy and other expenses was TAX
en- up by those cooperating with
the rodeo promoters. The re-
Spouse was very favorable. The
Blackfeet Roundup will be self
sustaining, at least, is the gen.
eral ambitions.
AS regards the parade the first
day, all riders and other partici-
pants who wish to take part are
asked to submit their names to:
Parade Manager, Yegen Hotel,
This will enable those plan
ming the parade to know in a
general way the various details
they will encounter.

Scout Camp Nupi
On Lower St. Murys
Lake Opens JuIy3

The biggest Boy Scout en-
campment in the history of the
project will open July 3 at Camp
Napi on lower St. Marys Lake
Plans have been under way since
the fore part of May and recent
ly camp councillors arrived tc
take care of final details.
Scheduled to arrive at the
camp tomorrow to assist with
camp preparations are rs Explor.
er Scouts who have been given
the tab camp builders" as they
will be charged with diversified
preparation work.
The explorers are from widely
scattered sections of the North
Central Montana Council.
For the first time in history of
Camp Napi the camping season
has been extended for one addi-
tional week, making six consecu-
tive sessions. Scout Executives
report all sessions are filled to
capacity.
AS the council has secured a
SO year lease from the Blackfeet
reservation for the camp site
property, this year it has been
possible to start permanent i'm
provement projects. Previously
leases were from year to year
and camp restricted to temporary
improvements.
Lack of water supply late in
August prevents extending the
camp beyond six weeks of opera
ton but a well being drilled may
make it possible for lengthening
the season, according to scout
executives.
