The 433-mile line, to be known
as the Glacier Pipe Line System.
will extend from Cut Bank in
northwestern Montana to Round
up in central Montana, and then
to Byron, near Powell, in north
ern Wyoming, where it will con-
meet with the Platte and other
pipe lines to the St. Louis and
Chicago areas. 1t will include a
55-mile lateral spur line from
Roundup to oil fields in central
Montana.
The Glacier line will have an
initial capacity of $4,000 barrels
daily. Construction of the line
will start Immediately, with COM
pletion scheduled by the summer
of 1861.
THE Glacier line will stimulate
oil exploration in northwestern
and central Montana and should
more than double the develop
ment rate of fields in those
areas" said Mr. Kygar. 1T will
also accelerate production of
present reserves in Montana, and
result in broader markets for
Montana crude oil In fact, this
project should serve as a stimu-
late to the entire economy of
Montana and the Rocky Noun
tain region"
Continental Pipe Line Company
estimates that approximately 2OO,-
100000 barrels of oil will be
transported over the Glacier line
from fields in northwestern and
central Montana during the next
20 years. Current daily produc-
ton from these fields in about
25,755 barrels.

On the political scene, state anC
national, it's the same old story;
the candidates are hammerilF
away at each other with every
political hammer at their dis
pOsal and tossing mud around
Unfortunately. The funny part
of all political campaigns is the
fact that every candidate points
TO the defects and proposes what
the country needs but sell
dom do they explain just how
they would remedy the ills should
they get into office.
The old story that Montana
needs industry and more tour
lists is the chief topic of cure-all
We have known that for a good
many years, but we have never
been able to find anyone who
has succeeded in attracting these
economy boosters TO any larger
extent than they now exist. It's
easy 10 say we need this and
that, but to outline a successful
and workable plan is quite an
other thing.
II is just as easy to point the
finger at an encumbent and say
that he has flubbed here and
there but how many nubbs
would the accuser have COM
mitted had he been in office? All
accusations and no remedy make
for a poor campaign as far as we
are concerned.

Uncle Sam has finally gotten
around TO announce that he is
going to effect a total economic
blockade of Castro's Cuban gov
eminent, and it's about time. Not
that We think il will do too much
good for us or too much harm
TO him, but il is at least a move
in the right direction to warn
Castro that we have had about
enough of his barbs.
We have been waiting to see
just how far the Beard will go
in his announced intention to
take over the U. S. naval base in
Cuba but we also note tina
in his announcement he express
ly emphasized that he would use
every legal" means possible. This
is about as close TO a confession
that he has been working as il
legally as he could come without
actually admitting il.
We know. and Castro knows,
that to attempt TO take the base
by force, or any other means for
that matter, would be the begin
ming of the end for him. That has
already been officially announc-
ed by the Admiralty and we
think they mean IL! =

We have finally come to the
conclusion that there are only two
seasons in Montana spring
and winter. I suppose We should
not really complain though, es-
pecially about the weather this
last month. IL we recall correct.
~. there was quite a bit of snow
at this time last year and plenty
of cold weather.
IL we are correct in our con-
clusion that there are only two

friend in the tempestuous life of

came 81.
Miss Aadland, the late Enrol

death as suicide and have no i'm

Beverly, II, said he asked her
to marry him and she refused.
"He told me that l had ruined
his life - that he loved me, but
l didn't love him, and he was
going to kill me-" she said.
"That's a pack of lies," asserted
Stanciu's brother, Kenneth, %,
another aspiring actor. Beverly
asked Billy to marry her few
weeks ago."
He asked, "WIhy would Billy
want to rape her? He and Beverly
have been going together every
night for six weeks. Everybody in
town knows that"
He said he was certain his
brother wouldn't kill himself -
Gle wasn't that kind of guy. He
had everything to live for"
The dead man, son of Ro-
manian immigrants, had juven-
lie arrest record. Police found him
lying nearly nude in Beverly's
apartment.
Beverly, slender platinum
blonde, was held in juvenile hall

JOHANNESBURG, South AT
RIGA, R-Paul Oliver Sauer, chief
of the Nationalist Party in Parlia-
ment, took over today as govern
ment leader in place of wounded
Prime Minister Hendrix F. YER
woerd. Sauer promptly pledged
to carry on Verwoerd's apartheid
policies.
Sauer, 81, is minister of lands
in the cabinet. He takes over the
helm as senior member of the
cabinet, but will not serve as act
ing Prime Minister.
Sauer told Parliament the gov
eminent will continue on its reg
ular program and Verwoerd's
course, adding "The rest of the
cabinet will see that peace and
order are maintained"
Even as Sauer spoke, South AZ
rica's white police and courts con-
tinued to take sharp action to
quell racial strife and continuing
Negro work boycotts against white
supremacy laws.
Verwoerd continued to show
progress in a Pretoria hospital
from two head wounds inflicted
Saturday by wealthy white
farmer. An anti-government news
paper suggested he may have
been injured more severely than
