An Open Letter
To the Residents of
|Richland County
Dear Mr.. and Mrs.
Rich1And- County

We went shopping last Wednes-
day night We took children from
80 Richland county families shop
ping for Christmas gifts and you
made it all possible. 1t was you
who put the shine in the little
girls eyes as she picked out a
pretty red scarf for her mommy.
1t was also you who put that
big grin on the eight-year-old
boys face as he picked out a
truck for him and his brother. We
wish you all could have seen
the happiness you created. We
wish you could have watched the
little hands as they tediously
printed: Mommy, Daddy, Baby,
etc. You, through your generosity
make the annual Jaycee shopping
tour possible. This year you gave
SO generously that we were able
to take children from all over
Richland county-town and farm
children. Not only did you give
your money, but also your used
clothing TO the Jayceen Christ
mas tree. The children were SC
to get those war; mitts
and caps, and the last little one
to the tree found it bare, SO she
got the Christmas tree. You see,
nothing was wasted.
We had a wonderful time. SO
Richland county families had a
Merry Christmas, SO there is only
one thing left to do concerning
the Jaycee Christmas shopping
tour-Thank you, MI. and Mrs.
Richland County.
The Sidney Jaycees and

Support
Loans Total
Over $34 Million

More than $34 million has been
loaned by Commodity Credit cor
poration to Montana farmers who
have offered 1857 = crop wheat,
barley, oats, rye, flaxseed and
dry beans as collateral for price

State Agricultural Sterilization
and Conservation administrative

dry, edible beans.
In addition to the commodities

ing an additional 1,112,362 bush
els of grain. Under these agree
ments, the producer receives no
money now but has the privilege
of selling to CCC at support price
at loan maturity time.
Kolstad said that the quanti-
ties of grain offered for support

vember Is a year ago for every

handicapped
Persons Reliable,
Competent

Local Employment Office Sug-
gests Physically Handicapped
Persons in Many Cases Make the
Best Workers.
One of the more important
functions of the Montana State
Employment Service is the pro-
motion and placement of physic-
ally handicapped persons.
Many people automatically
think of a person who is totally
disabled when mention is made
of the handicapped. 1t is not pos
sible to over-emphasize the diff
ference. A physically handicapped
person is one who is restricted in
some manner by a physical defect
from birth, an accident or illness,
but who is not totally incapable
of living a normal productive life.
II given IN equal chance and with
the proper training, such people
are generally as useful and often
more outstanding in the line of
work for which they have been
trained, than are those who have
no physical restrictions.
Statistics gathered by govern
ment agencies have proved be-
yond doubt that these rehabili-
tated workers are more cautious,
therefore r safer employees than
the physically normal person; are
more punctual; III less frequently
absent from their jobs; and are
more stable in remaining with
their work than are their CO.
workers who have no handicap.
Quite frequently the physically
handicapped person is more i'm
aginative and creative in his
work, and in most instances is of
great value to his employer.
The Montana State Employment
Service is regularly engaged in
locating jobs for handicapped
persons, in line with previous
training, work experience and
physical capacity. This agency
also refers physically disabled
persons who are in need of more
training or other services to the
Bureau of Vocational Rehabilita-
ton or the Veterans Welfare
Commission.
The Bureau of Vocational Re-
mobilization, represented in this
area by Wayne Fjosee who head
quarters in Havre, is currently
working with a number of local
disabled persons. This agency
provides training, p~rosthetic ap-
oliances, surgery, and hospitaliza-
ion with the sole purpose of
making employment for the han
iicapped worker possible, after
Which the persons is then refer
ed to the Employment Service
or placement.
Ex-Servicemen are referred to
he Veterans Welfare Commits
ion to determine what rights
and benefits are available to
hem through the G.. L. Bill. ,

in the Sidney area who

Ground Observer
Posts to Be On
'Ready Reserve"

The Bismarck Air Defense Fill
ter Center and its Ground OBJ
rye posts in North Dakota and
eastern Montana was placed
on Ready Reserve" status Janu-
airy /, 1858. When this change is
made the entire Ground Observ-
er Corps throughout the country
will be on "Ready Reserve"
In a Ready Reserve status the
Air Defense Filter Center and
GOO Posts will be kept in a
state of readiness with communi-
cations facilities and other equip
ment remaining operational.
Training of civilian volunteer
"Skywatchers" will be continued
and the system will be tested by
periodic exercises to maintain its
effectiveness in an emergency.
The filter center and observation
posts will be manned by volun-
teers only during periods of
training, exercises and emergen-
cies.
In a Ready Reserve status the
GOO will continue to perform it
additional jobs which are of
community as well as national
service. These include:
/. Severe weather reporting -
warning of tornadoes, floods, hail
storms and hurricanes.
2. Reporting of airplanes in
distress - on fire, crashed or
lost.
8. Reporting of unidentified
flying objects.
A.. Reporting of nuclear deto-
nations.
S. Educating the American peo-
pie on the threat of air attack.
According to Colonel Clarke,
GOO project officer, headquarters
ITSAF, the decision to place the
Coo on Ready Reserve status
was based on three factors:
/. archaeological advances in
electronic air surveillance sys-
TENS.
2. Experience gained from tests
and exercises in alerting GOO
units which reverted recently to
read reserve status.
3. And the obligation original
Jy accepted by the Air Force to
reduce the voluntary RESPONSE
bility of civilian "Skywatchers"
as soon as possible.
Electronic surveillance advances
which make easing of GOO du-
ties possible are:
a. Completion and successful
testing Of the distant early warn
ing line (DEW) across the Arctic
circle and a similar radar chain
across mid-Canada.
b. The progress in developing
the operational capabilities of the
seaward extensions of the DEW
hne out over the Atlantic and
Pacific oceans with radar equip
ped aircraft and navy surface
ships.
C. Further extensions of the l
Early Warning radar network out {
over the contiguous coastal areas
Of the United States with radar
equipped Air Force and Navy ]
Aircraft and Navy picket ships,
plus the growth and improve
ments of internal heavy radar. t

Completely turning the tables
on the preseason Projectors, the
hgh-flying Sidney Eagles re-
tanned undisputed possession OF
first place in the Glass A con-
ference by Chalking up numbers
four and five over last week
end. The undefeated Kangas

club before the season began. AL
though the locals still have 13
tough league games left to play
they now r the team to beat.
Last week Sidney defeated
Glendive on the home court 1851
and then squeezed past Miles
City on Clusters floor 50-48. In
their win over Dawson, the
Eagles Unbiased their most DOW
erful scoring burst of the young
season When five players scored
in the double figures. Then on
Saturday night they displayed
their come-from-behind capabili-
ties to nose out previously I'M
beaten Miles City. In this contest
the Eagles were without the SER
vices of their high scoring for
ward, Ron Quilting during most
of the second half. Ron drew his
fifth foul after two and one-half
minutes of play in the third
period.
The Eagles rested most of this
week before preparing for the
Holiday Tourney to be held here
January 3 and 4. Teams besides
Sidney in this one r Wolf Point
and Williston, and Devils Lake
from North Dakota.
Sidney is now assured of the
Class A top spot until at least
January 10. On that date they
