While the proprietor. Frank

downstairs in his store about
midnight, his wife, becoming
suspicious, called Deputy Sheriff
Jack Wall.
When Wall arrived, he and
Krshka checked and found a
backdoor glass broken and an
intruder in the premise. He was
a l7-year-old Browning boy with
his pockets bullying with sundry
items.
He was made to return the
articles, and as he was led to
the door he took a sudden swing

Bird Hunters Report
Good Opening Day

Reports from Montana fish and
game checking stations show that
sportsmen after game birds on
opening day enjoyed some good
hunting, although success was
somewhat below that for opening
day of last year.
Figures from seven stations,
all east of the Continental Di.
vide, showed an average of l.20
birds per hunter f. the one day.
About five hours OF hunting were
expended on each bird, according
to Wynn Freeman, state small
game manager. Highest success
was from the Malta area where
gunners averaged almost two
birds per man. Lowest success
was in the Fort Peck area where
the aver.ge fell to less than one
bird Pc hunter.
In all. 958 hunters stopping at
the stations took a total of 1,143
game birds.

While the attendance at the
meeting was comparatively small,
a previous canvas of many of the
business places indicated that
they were in favor of the promo
ton, and volunteered a hundred
per cent cooperation.
The Roundup Days, as it will
be known, will be a real bang-up
affair with every participating
business offering prizes of great
value and sales days values on
merchandise that will present ex-
traordinary savings to area shop
pers. Each business place will
offer several leader items, many
of which will be featured at cost
or below cost. A promotional is
sue of The Glacier Reporter, to
be published on Wednesday, Oct.
IL, will feature a host of money
saving values in the advertise
ments of the local merchants.
While plans have not yet been
completed, the four-day whoop-
up is expected to be climaxed
with a free dance and the draw
ing for the grand prize being
given by the c of c.
Drawings for the individual
merchants prizes will be held
daily Thursday, Friday and Sat
urday, October II, Is and IA, at
the hours of IL am, and l, 3 and
5 pm. Place of drawings will

ing lot on Main street.
Each participating merchant
will be giving tickets which the
receiver will place in a box, en-.
titling him to a chance for the
many prizes. The tickets will
then be taken to the place of
drawing where the lucky win

ed.
One example of the fine prizes
to be offered is a Sl85 saddle

"Our goal" DR.. Burch stated,

Pre- And Tribal
Council To Meet
Here Tomorrow

The Petroleum Research Cor
poration of Denver, Colo, is ex-
pected to meet in Browning FRI
day with the Blackfeet Tribal
Council on business concerning
site leases for the proposed in
dustrial park to be developed
on the southern end of the res
ervation, and to discuss prelim-
mary groundwork for forming a
joint company should the plan
be acceptable to the tribe.
William Colburn, vice-president
of the corporation, is expected to
represent the PRO and discuss
legal obligations with attorneys.
The formation of an industrial
company and the proposal to
bury atomic by-products on the
reservation is reported to have
the approval of a majority of the
councilmen, but no agreement
can be forthcoming until a few
details and changes can be made
in the contract.
1t will be necessary to secure
the approval of several federal
and health agencies, along with
the Atomic Energy Commission,
before any final steps can be
concluded and a contract signed.
The tribal council is meeting
today with the tribes elders and
tomorrow's meetings will prob.
ably be a closed affair.

A MINUTE
WITH nal


in history as the greatest speech
Of his career. President Kennedy
treasured the world, and partic.
ularly Russia. that the United
States and her western allies will
stand firmly behind all commit.
ments concerning free nations
Of the world. and those who have
been enslaved, robbed. raped and
plundered by aggressor nations.
The Presidents seriousness and
finger-pointing emphasis should
have left no doubt but that he
was sincere, and backed one hun
dred per cent by his countrymen.
allies. and weapons of modern
warfare If necessary. He indicat-
ed that IL IL Is necessary to meet

His assuring speech was re
ceiver with great enthusiasm,
and several Ovations. by all peace
loving nations and by m any
others, who up until this time,
have been doubtful as TO the sim
cerity of our commitments, or
who have taken a neutral stand

threats or lack of confidence in
our promises.

sternly warned that the contin-

sized that We would not retreat

face of threats or saber-rattling
and challenged Russia TO a

termined, and reassuring. would
sum IL up in three simple words.
We have the will and the wea-
pons, the President declared, and
he promised that both would be
employed in the defense of free
dom, but. he added that he still
held great hope that peaceful
negotiations could settle all ar.
gumeuts.
One point we believe should
have been included in the mes
sage. and which we believe 10
be true. Is that the U. n. Is full
of free-loaders who contribute
nothing more than a neutral at
titude by playing east against
west in hopes Of securing addi-
tiOnal MONETARY support from the
highest bidder. We would liked
TO have heard this mentioned
along with the suggestion that
these free-loaders either kick in.

share of the tab. choose the side
they think Is right or get

No organization can cooperate
with maximum efficiency If all
members do not vote.
While We, personally, took
great pride and confidence in
hearing Mr.. Kennedy lay our
program and proposals openly
before this great world assem-
blage Of representatives. we
somehow felt that had Teddy
Roosevelt been standing at the
rostrum and uttering those iden-
teal words, the world would
have had no doubts whatsoever
that as 10 what our intentions
were and that every promise
would surely be fulfilled.

Mr.. Gromyko has to say At

tesy to shake hands with the
President and comment that "he

For he can truthfully show
that the fundamental re-
vision Of the whole enter
prise which he is asking
would be far more efficient
and far less wasteful than

show, too, that even apart
from the overriding necessity
to keep the free world in
economic health for it's mil

ness itself could not afford
the worldwide economic con-
vulsions that would follow
any sudden withdrawal Of
foreign aid.
So, since his problem is
not really soluble through
the ordinary political ap-
proach, he is calling for the
businessmen to come for
ward. Though fully aware
that most businessmen prob
ably wish the Presidents

things about businessmen.
They can add and subtract
with no difficulty at all. They
know the value Of long-term
and carefully thought-out as
distinguished from hasty
short-term investment. And
they go at a banking prob

what foreign aid is now to
become - without bothering
much about their private po-
litical views or whether they
agree in every way with the

President Kennedy is re-
turning to much the same
approach in his gathering
effort to save his new foreign
aid program. He is going out
of his way to disaSSociate
the thing from politics as
such. Most of all he is avoid
ing identifying it with the
Democratic Party. 1t is no
huShed secret to the Presi-
dent that most businessmen
are not enchanted Democrats.
And, for his present purpose,
this circumstance is abSo-
lutely all right with him.
For what he faces here is
the toughest kind of problem.
He must get 81 billion for
foreign countries from a Con-
gress already fed up with
some of those, countries;
alarmed and confused at the
state Of the world, and sick
and tired Of what has un-
deniably been a good deal Of
bunk in the old foreign aid
program.
Worse yet, he is trying to
persuade Congress to give up
its traditional power over the
purse to the extent of per-
mitting him to make foreign
aid commitments running
over several years rather than
only one year at a time.
He has concluded that il

the aggrieved party could go

unfortunately. 1t is difficult
