Sidney Cleaners
Install Garment
Storage Vault

Sidney Cleaners and Laundry
have recently completed conStruc-
ton of a garment storage vault,
The purpose of this installation
is to help relieve the congestion
in household closets.
Most people today have more
clothing than closet space. Conse-
quently, during the summer
months, the winter garments are
pushed TO the rear of the closets
or stuffed in trunks and boxes in
the basement, in an effort to try
to provide sufficient space for
the current seasons wearing APP
parel.
When the first cold weather
arrives in the fan, the heavy gar
ments most often are not pre-
Sentable for wearing.
By making use of the garment
storage convenience, the clothing
received will first be dry cleaned.
finished, and then hung in the
moisture proof, insulated vault,
and will be ready for delivery
when requested in the fall.
Construction of the materials
OF the vault were approved by Mr..
Lambin of the Montana Fire Rat
ing Bureau.
Garments placed in storage will
be insured against fire and theft.
The vault will receive periodic
fumigation, which will afford
protection against insects and
moths that individuals could not
afford to provide in their house
hold storage.

Hiram Bingham, 80, Dies;
Senator Under COOLIDGE

Bingham became one of the few
Senators ever censured by his
colleagues. He was rebuked
/ for bringing Charles L. cyan
son, a paid employe of the
Manufacturers Association of
Connecticut, into executive ses-
sions Of the Senate Finance
Committee which was writing a
tariff bill.
The Senate said Mr.. Bingham's
action was contrary to good
morals and senatorial ethics. y
But it did soften the blow by
asserting that the action was
mot the result of corrupt
motives on the part of the SEN
|ator from Connecticut"
Defeated on Wet Ticket
Mr.. Bingham's relations with
President Coolidge were cordial,
but he differed with President
Hoover on a number of issues.
One of these was prohibition. In
the Republican National Conven-
ton of 1882 he futilely tried to
replace the Presidents prohibit
ton plank with one calling for
outright repeal.
That fall Senator Bingham ran
for reelection on wet ticket
and lost out by 7,745 votes.
Mr.. Bingham remained in
Washington, becoming a director
of the Washington Loan &
Trust Co. and launching a ca
lreer in oil. His first venture in
California failed. Turning to
Texas. he made good financially
and served as director in several
small oil companies.
Given Loyalty Post
Mr.. Bingham said he was sit
ting peacefully at home on
Christmas, 1850, when Miss
Frances Perkins. then on the
Civil Service Commission, urged
him to take over the Loyalty Re-
view Board Craftsmanship.

Following a bipartisan confer
ence of House leaders at the
White House last night, Demo-
cratic Floor Leader Mccormack
of Massachusetts also made it
known he would support a 5000
million aid restoration move. But
Chairman Richards of the House
Foreign Affairs Committee said
he had not changed his mind
on the reductions his commit
tee made.
Refers to Views of Military
Observers felt, however, that if
the Speaker and Mr.. Mccormack
joined Republican leaders in a
plea to the House. they probably
would succeed in making some
reservations.
Mr.. Mccormack said he would
accept the view of competent
military authorities that $500
million would be the minimum
necessary" to put back in the
bill.

Leader Martin of Massachusetts,

billion-dollar cut in the program

Effect on NATO Feared
The administrations deepest
concern over the House cut re-
lates to its possible effect on the
NATO alliance.
The motion by which the
House committee chopped 81
billion from the So billion mill
tary aid request in the bill also
placed a ceiling of $4O2 million
on the allotment for Europe and
specified that at least SAB million
be devoted to Spain.

the President requested.
Mr.. Rayburn said the move to
restore $500 million of the cut

dent puts his whole oar in and

This was an apparent refer
ence to the fact that Republican
members played a substantial
part in bringing about the cut in

Volunteers Aid Views
Mr.. Eisenhower, without wait
ing for questions. opened his
weekly press conference by VOL
unteering his views on foreign
aid. He pointed out that this
is the anniversary of D-Day on
which the allies successfully re-
turned to the European main
land IL years ago and won the
war
Ever since that time the free
nations have been waging peace,
he said. and that cause has its
ups and downs the same as war,
He said America never got dis
couraged during the war, possibly
because the objective of defeat
ing the enemy was clear. In
waging peace the detectives are
not always so clear. he con-
tinued, adding that the main is
sue is freedom versus dictator
ship. He said this is not as clear
but just as important.
The President estimated that
the United States is spending
about $40 billion a year to wage
peace, of which about 10 per
cent is in the mutual security
program of aid to cooperating
nations. He argued that if we
don't continue this aid to other
countries we would have to spend
many more billions in static.
negative defense. He warned
that no amount of money put
into bombs. tanks or missiles
will assure peace and that be-
yond a certain point the Nation
would face diminishing returns
Recalls U. S. Neutrality
In the long run, he said, it is
more profitable to put a reason
able amount in other programs
that tend to make people sup
port the things we believe in
He also pointed out that in wag-
ing peace you cannot be too par
ticular about the attitude OF
other countries. He recalled
/ that the United States was once
a young country and for Isl
years constantly asserted it wa:
neutral in Europe's wars and an.
tagonisms.
There are other nations thai
say they are neutral today, but

does not mean they are neutra

only in regard to their attach
