When the Montana Council for
Traffic Safety is organized on 6
statewide basis sometime this
month, the three Els will be basis

mined at a preliminary meeting
held in Helena, in late July, by
the Is persons who represented
the Treasure State, at a regional

the same lines as the newly or

actually opened up the trade
routes and the colonization OF
North America.
On August 14th, 1900, an Ar
my of 5000 American, British,
French, German and japanese
troops captured Picking, the Chi
nese capital. This sounds inter
esting in 1856, when it would
probably take several hundred
times that number of troops to
do the job. This, however, was
the time of the Boxers, who were
committing outrages against for
eign representatives in Picking.
On June IL, of 1900, the Chan
cellor of the Japanese legation
in Picking and the German Am
bassador we're murdered in the
streets. These outrages, plus 9TH

to send troops to the Far East,
and the joint army, 5000 strong,
set out for Peking on August 4th,
from Taku.
Another historical date Ameri-
cans will long remember is Au-

American frigate, Constitution,

frigate, Guerrero. The British

Perhaps the most dramatic

August 14th, l945, when it was

BARRIERS.

(ChrlStlan Science Monitor)
For decade upon decade before
May 8, 1854, men tried to get
their feet to cover a mile in less
than four minutes. In a score of
nations athletes trained for years
and failed one after another to
break" the four-minute mile.
1t came to be regarded as an i'm
passable barrier. Then suddenly
two years ago Roger Bannister
of Oxford ran a mile in 8 min
utes, SO and 4-10 seconds.
Since then the four-minute
mark has been broken a dozen
times and by men from Hungary
to Australia. Why? No new race
of superrunners appeared. These
men ran on the same tracks with
the same equipment. A very large
part of the answer appears to be
that they ran with the knowledge
1t had been done. And by a man
less well equipped physically
than some who had failed. But
he had a new approach which
broke the mental barrier - the
belief that it couldn't be done.
Then others found the "impos-
four-minute mile quite
possible. May this not be equally
of other barriers raised by

his support to Presidential can
didate Adlai Stevenson and with
draw from the Presidential derby
just about clinches the Democrat
ic nomination for Adlai Steven
son.
There is a story behind the
story, which probably induced
Kefauver to swing his support to
Stevenson rather than consider
aiding Hartman. OF course, it
became pretty clear that Ke-
fauver's goose was cooked when
he lost the California primary to
Stevenson.
But in 1852, this delegation
was his major trump card, and
was enthusiastically behind the
Tennessean. At that Convention
it was Harry Truman, and his
supporters, who Inundated Ke-
fauver and kept him from OBJ
tanning second place on the Dem
ocratic ticket.
When it became clear, in the
Convention of 1852, that Kefau-
yer could not win the Presiden-
tial nomination, he sought an
agreement with Hartman, but
Hartman would not deal with
the Tennessean. Hartman was
not interested in the vice presi-
dency, but his votes could have
very nearly put Kefauver over

Without a doubt, Kefauver u

mary - has been watching the
candidacy of Averell Hartman
carefully, and noting the close
relationship between Harry Tru-
nan and Averell Hartman. In
tasting his lot with Stevenson,
he is not unaware of the fact
hat he might be able to obtain
consideration as a vice presiden-
ial candidate, with Stevenson.

Roman Pioneer
Editor Speaks For
Weekly Press
(From Montana Hardware

& Implement Assn. Bulletin)
In the May issue of this bull
letin we reprinted an editoria
from the Bozeman Chronicle IT,
tied Help Yourself at Home"
The principle involved was urg-
ing the "buy at home e.
theme for the growth and expan-
sion of local communities. We
! congratulated them on their edi-
torial and commented that toe
few newspapers did do a job OF
promoting the local business in
terests in their editorial columns.
Ray Loman, Editor of the Ro-
nan Pioneer, published a direct
reply on his editorial page. He
agreed that the newspapers
should promote buying at home
1000. He agreed that they should
promote the community.
Then he took out after Blew
ms as editor of the previous
article. He says: "But the sword
has two edges - the hardware
merchant, and every other mer-
chant, is in the same fix as the
newspaper. / wonder how many
hardware merchants get all their
printing done in their home
town, and also how many of
them constantly promote the
welfare of their newspaper as
they would have the newspaper
promote their welfare? How
many of them take advantage of
their local advertising medium
and see to it that they have a
good, intelligent, product-selling
advertisement in it each week.
Aside from selling goods for the
Individual store, each advertise
ment does its bit to help pro-
mote the whole community.
That much of his editorial has
at least a suggestion of personal
interest but read the next para
graph and search your own con-
science to see where you stand.
Lets take it a bit farther. How
many merchants buy their cars in
their home agencies, how many
get their dry cleaning done in
heir home town, how many buy
heir clothes at home, utilize the
services of local professional
men, S local builders, buy their
locally or get their in
;urance from a local agent?"
Another point, how many
when urging their
newspaper to use editorial or
,ther space to promote some
community project or fund drive
or one of their own products),
consider it as much their own
responsibility to use some of their
advertising space for the same
,urpose?"
We publicly apologize to Ray
for having covered only
me edge of the sword in our
'revious column. We earnestly
lrge that each of you sincerely
the questions he pro-
'oses. Your business, your COM

ition and respect for your OBJ

Montana FYE
Writes From
Emerald Isle

belIaSt, NOrth ireland
July 10, 1856
Hello to the People of Montana
from the Emerald Isle:
! have been with my first host
family since / arrived in Ire
land June 28th. MIR. and Mrs,
Hugh Boyd have no children, but
are truly a jolly family in them
selves. The Boyds have done
much travelling all over the
world, so have had many ex-
p%eriences that they have passed
on to me.
To start the story I left
Billings Airport June II at 9:I5
p. m, and arrived in Washing
ton, d. c., the next evening. We
had an unexpected delay in
Minneapolis, which set the time
back. Because of travelling East,
I also had to set my watch ahead.
This added up to only a half
night of sleep. Orientation began
on Tuesday morning and con-
tinued until the next Monday
afternoon. These sessions includ-
ed material on understanding
others and then ourselves. Each
delegation spent much of their
time together, enabling them to
get better acquainted.
Monday, the 25th of June, the
delegates boarded two Grey
hound buses and journeyed to
New York Idlewild Airport. The
sixty-three of us and a staff
member rode the Flying Tiger
plane to Paris. There were
refueling stops, and in all,
we were in the air "a hours.
Guess WHAT? Lost another night
Of sleep. In Paris the group vis-
tied the American Embassy and
then went sightseeing. The Irish
delegation included in theirs a
taxi ride. You should just close
your eyes and hope for the best.
Thursday was the day for de-
oartures. The group kept getting
mailer all along. The Irish and
Scottish delegates flew as far as
together, and then each
'roup divided again. The fellow

o Belfast. We were met at the
airport and went into town. My

Thrift Shop Tea
Is Big Success

All roads led to the Horizon
Hill" home of Mr.. and Mrs. Ralph
Scott on Falls Road just outside
of Rockville last Wednesday aft
ernoon when the Annual Fall
Tea and Fashion Show was held
by the Montgomery County
Thrift Shop.
A larger number of guests at
tended the tea than have ever
before and despite the hundreds
who came the spacious house and
terrace was not too crowded for
the beautiful fashion show to be
presented for everyone to enjoy.
More than $50 unwrapped gifts
were counted with more coming
in and they ranged from hand
some venetian bottles, French
china plates, Italian bowls, an
tique pressed glass water pitchers
to candle sticks and ash trays
and in probable sale value they
were estimated to be worth in
the neighborhood of $500. Also
homemade cookies put UP in plas-
tic bags were sold and realized
more than $40.
All the refreshments were do
mated. Coffee and cookies were
served in the Williamsburg Gar
den or recreation room where the
gifts were arranged on a long
table, and tea and punch and
cookies were served in the dining
room with Mrs. James B. Cooling
and her committee in charge.
Mrs. Edwin A. Merritt and
Mrs. James B. Mustard who were
in charge of the gifts will have
them priced and they will be on
sale in the Thrift Shop at 1920
Wisconsin Avenue, Bethesda.
This will be an opportunity to
