FACTS IN J. p. COURT TRIAL
INCORRECTLY REPORTED

A communication from John p.
Moore, attorney of Cut Bank,
calls our attention to a report
published in last weeks Report
cr wherein the actual facts in
the court proceedings were in.
correctly reported.
The case in question was in
connection with the account of
a charge against Clyde Devinney,
of Waller, who was picked up on
the highway between Browning
and East Glacier and originally
charged with drunk driving. The
charge was later changed to one
of reckless driving. Mr.. Moorc's
letter is in part as follows:
while the body of your article
indicates that DcVinncy did
plead guilty to 4 charge Of rcck.
less driving. the caption of this
article is in such condition as to
lead a casual reader of the paper
to believe that Clyde DeVinney
was convicted of drunken driv.
ing.
Your article is further in er.
Tor in stating that DcVinncy
was arrested on the End of Feb.
ruary. The date OF the arrest
was January IL, 1856 at 800
O'Clock p. m. The defendant
pleaded not guilty. The jury
trial was called for Wednesday,
January 25th. After the jury
was cmpanclcd. the case was dis.
missed on motion of the defense
because the prosecution had not
charged DeVinncy with the com.
mission Of a public offense.
Thereafter DcVinncy was again
arrested on the same charge,
and the matter set for jury trial
on Thursday, February End. At
this hearing, after the roll of
the jury was called. the Highway
Patrol spokesman stated that they
had been advised by the County
Attorney to reduce the charge to
RECKLESS driving. The court
therefore. in the presence of the
jury reduced the charge TO ''reck.
less driving. and n plea of guilty
was entered. \ fine of 500 was
assessed and paid.
As Clyde DcVinncy has never
before been convicted Of any
traffic violations or any other
criminal violations Of any kind.
We believe that he is entitled to
have your erroneous implica.
lions arising from your article
cleared Up. and will sincerely ap.
prcciate your doing So"

II should DC emphasized that
this per capita payment Is being
made from funds belonging to
the Blackfect Tribe itself. and
not from funds appropriated by
Congress or controlled by any
governmental agency. There are
certain areas in the country
where the impression is prcva.
lent that per capita payments
are made periodically to mem.
bcrs Of Indian Tribes by the In.
dian Bureau from funds appro.
pria,cd by Congress. This. of
course. is not the case. Prac,i.
cally all funds appropriated an.
nually by Congress TO the
Bureau Of India" Affairs are
used for administration expense
by that Bureau and little. il any.
is paid dircc, to the Indians.
In connection with the coming
per capita payment. the Black.
feet Tribal Council wishes to r..
quest the aid of local residents
of the Blackfcct Reservation in
getting the correct addresses for
members of the Tribe living of
the reservation. II you have 4
friend or relative living off the
reservation. please write his or
her name and address on plain
sheet OF paper and mail II to the
Treasurer of the Blarkicrt Tribe
at Browning. Montana
The Council also wishes to
emphasize that when this pay.
mrnt Is made. the checks Will be-
delivered only to the person to
whom the check Is drawn. All
checks must be called for per.
sonally. There will be- no rx.
rcptiOn to this rule.
II is hoped that this per capita
payment will be- made in the
very near future. therefore. all
members OF the Tribe are re-.
qucstcd to lend their assistance

Farm Chemicals
Safe With Care

MOST FARM CHEMICALS, weed
killers, insecticides, ETC., are poisonous
or have poison properties and should
be handled as such. But with reason
able care, farm users can handle and
apply them with complete safety.
Such weed and brush killers as 2,4-D
and 2,4,5-T Foundations of all types
may cause skin irritations to individuals
handling the chemicals. Those working
with the chemicals should avoid letting
the foundations come into direct con-
tact with their bodies, in particular,
Montana farmer-stockman., 1956-04-15

Of course, their eyes, open cuts or
bruises and body openings. Clothing
worn by persons applying chemicals
should be washed every night and the
persons should battle thoroughly each
evening.
Effect on Animals
Tests have shown that 7OO-pound
animal would have to eat all the forage
on an area about a fifth of an acre
treated at the rate of 2 quarts per
acre in order to acquire toxic dosage
of these herbicides.
In actual practice, literally millions
of acres of pasture with livestock on
them have been sprayed in the last
six or seven years without injury to
livestock. In many experiments with
Montana farmer-stockman., 1956-04-15

amounts of 2,4-D and 2,4,5-T fed directly
and on vegetation sprayed with them,
there have uniformly and without
exception been no poisonous effects on
any type of livestock.
There has been much discussion of
the possibility that spraying with these
herbicides might cause some plants to
become toxic, toxic plants to become
more toxic, and ordinary nOnpalatable
plants to become palatable. Consider
able investigation of these possibilities
has resulted in the general conclusion
that from a practical standpoint these
suggestions were more fanciful than
factual.

Handling NH3
With Safety

ANHYDROUS AMMONIA is
iquefied gas. That is to say that
at normal temperatures and pres
Sures it is gas but under pressure
it becomes a liquid. PreSsureS in
ammonia tanks can be quite high
about 200 pounds per square inch
gauge at 100 degrees Fahrenheit.
Ammonia gas, invisible but pun
gent, is lighter than air, fact that
simplifieS ventilation problems. AL
though the fire hazard under normal
farm conditions is slight, at certain
air gas mixtures, ammonia vapor is
flammable-even explosive.
Caustic Action
The dangers to workers handling
anhydrous ammonia rise largely in
the caustic action and the fact that
1t is contained under pressure. A
leak or an open valve can throw a
jet of caustic liquid a considerable
distance. Inhaled in sufficient GUAM
titles the vapors can cause severe
injury or death by damage to tissues
OF the throat, nose and lungs.
Incidentally, the rapid evaporation
of the liquid can cause frost bite to
skin and flesh exposed to it. This
effect combined with the caustic
action of the ammonia, can result
In severe skin and flesh burns in
some cases.
Rules for Handling
L. Know the characteristics of the
gas. Treat it with respect.
2. Know local and state laws regu-
Iatlng the use and storage of an
hydr0uS ammonia.
;. Use equipment designed for an
hydrouS ammonia. Do not use LIP
gas 0iquefied petroleum gas) tanks
or equipment for handling anhy-
drouS ammonia. Ammonia has a de-
structive effect on the brass and
copper fittings, often used with lique-
fled petroleum gases. (Highly poi
sonous fumes may result when
hquefied petroleum gas is burned
in the presence of an ammonia resi-
due.)
4. Before using anhydrous am
monia equipment, read your instruc-
ton book thoroughly. Make a "dry
rum to familiarize yourself with
the location of the valves and the
proper sequence in which they must
be opened and closed.
5. Never permit the liquid level in
an anhydrous ammonia tank to ex-
coed the 80 per cent full mark. The
dip pipe will warn you. Tempera-
ture increases resulting from the
direct rays of the sun may cause
expansion of the liquid to rupture
an Over-filled tank.
6. Never tamper with the adjust
ment on the safety valve.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1956-04-15

and Agricultural Experiment Station
pointed out that the spraying of certain
types of plants with 2,4-D increased
their nitrate content to hazardous levels.
Other weeds such as lambsquarter
pigweed, and smartweed have also
been reported as containing increased
quantities of nitrate after treatment
with 2,4-D. Since livestock do not ordi-
narily eat these species, it would seem
that the hazard presented by the ac-
emulation of nitrate in these plants is
slight. The lack of reported cases of
nitrate poisoning would seem to SUBJ
stantiate this supposition.
