Livestock Concern
Not Involved In
USDA Violations

during recent weeks there have
been rumors and press releases
circulated that imply that the
Producers Livestock Marketing
Association at the Billings Public
Stockyards was involved in viola
tons of the Packers and Stock
yards Act. According to J. w.
Patton, manager in charge, the vi
olatlonS were not committed by
the Producers offices at Billings,
Butte, or Great Falls. Violations
were found at the Ogden office,
and have been corrected.
In commenting on the matter.
Patton stated, Producers at Bill
lings has not knowingly violated
any portion of the P & S Act. The
USDA brought to our attention
that Western Livestock Order
Buyers, in 1858, had taken three
loads of cattle into its Order Ac-
count. Western Livestock Order
Buyers is registered with the
USDA to conduct both an order
buying and dealer business. This
is a legal and necessary registra-
ton, but can easily bring about a
problem in handling stock as the
law is very complicated. In any
event, the method of handling was
corrected"
Patton further pointed out that
both Producers and Westerns op-
erations have grown rapidly since
they began to operate in Montana
and Northern Wyoming. That it
has been the policy of both firms
to give fair and honest services
to its patrons. This kind of SER
vice will be continued, and that
will always be the policy of the
two companies.

OF the thousands of spectacular
scenes filmed for motion picture
screens, the ones which probab-
ly have brought the greatest thrills
to audiences are those of great
conflagrations.
Fans tend to remember the
burning of Atlanta in "Gone With
the Wind" and the thrill-packed
fire scenes in "Quo Vadis," "San
Francisco" and in "In Old Chi
cago."
Now "The Violent Men," Colum-
bia Pictures spectacular outdoor
epic photographed in Cinemascope
and color by Technicolor starting
at the Centre Theatre next Tues
day, has one Of the more spectac-
ular holocausts to hit the screen
IN a long time.
The ranch to be burned in this
great epic was built by Columbia
on slope of snow-covered Mt.
Whitney. The ranch buildings, IA
IN all, were erected on rock and
workmen first had to blast away
the base of a 1900 foot mountain
to make clear the necessary area.
To blast away the mountainside,
SIX experts with explosives work
ed six days.
Hundreds of feet of fuel lines
were laid to feed the flames. Al
most two miles of water pipes, to
put out the fire, were required.
From tanks and pumps high on
the mountain top the fuel and
water lines ran to every door and
every window of the IA buildings.
Even the buildings got special
treatment, because they had to
burn at precise speeds. This re-
CURED alternate patches of inflam-
material and fireproofing.
To insure the success of the
greatest film fire scenes in almost
a decade, $500 gallons of fuel
were used, with 100000 gallons
OF water on tap to see that the
flames did not spread.
Nobody wanted to jeopardize
Barbara Stanwyck, so Columbia
Pictures signed a stunt double to
play her long shots on a ranch
balcony furiously ablaze, for a
scene In "The Violent Men"
However, Miss Stanwyck insisted

FOR A CLEAN CITY
COMPLAINTS HAVE come til

COMPLAINTS HAVE come that our streets are not be-
ing kept as clean as they might be. Old beer cans, peanut
shells, and everything imaginable may be found on the streets
each and every day. While this situation is not too serious at
the moment it is serious enough to alarm some citizens, and
we gare. that now is the time to do something about it.
THE SANITATION Department, limited as it is in
funds and the necessary help, is doing the best i can under
the circumstances. What is needed is community coopera-
ton from each and every citizen. Without this cooperation
any attempt to keep our fine towns looking clean and tidy is
we agree that now is the time to dc something about it.
practically impossible.
ONE CITIZEN has suggested the use OF additional gar
bage containers. This is a good suggestion and should be toll
lowed because it presents, for the moment at least, perhaps
the easiest way out. Everywhere else owners of homes are re-
ouired By law to provide their own garbage cans. This means
that all the garbage from each home is kept in covered cans
until they can be picked up on a given day.
ANOTHER IDEA which may be put into effect is the
placing Of trash cans at points along the streets. In many
northern cities this works wonderfully. People who dispose
Of old newspapers, wrappngs from candy, gum, and other
articles. are thrown in these containers and therefore kept OH
the streets. The cost of such containers would be very small
and it would be the beginning Of a campaign to keep our
streets clean and tidy.
WITH THE presence of these containers, and the fullest

it to be. Let us work towards that end.
