Industrial Work
Payroll Reaches
Au-Tine Record

The number of wage earn
ers on industrial payrolls in
Montana has exceeded the
10000 mark for the first time.
UCC Chairman Edgar H.
Reeder reported today that an
estimated 182,200 non-farm
Montana workers were en-
ployed at mid-SeptemIber. This
was a gain of 400 from August
when the states employment
peak is traditionally reached,
and $500 higher than Septem-
Der 1862.
The brighter economic pic
ture this year is also reflected
in fewer UCC claims, Reeder
added. Although claims rose
seasonally, by 1O8 last week to
a total of 1882, they were
down 166 from the same week
last year.
Jobless women still comprise
nearly half of the total claim
load. F'orty-Six per cent, or
1872 claims, were filed by wo-
men. This is a normal situa-
ton for this time of the year,
Reeder explained. Women who
work in trade and service class
ifications are always the first
to lose their jobs as the volume

In their language, the common

States. ~-~- !
And while in Bolivia, Tito
announced a $5 million eco
nomic aid program for that
country and left behind a mes
sage for Bolivians described as
having made a deep impress
sion.
Bolivia is a country we have
been aiding extensively in our
foreign aid program to help
underdeveloped nations be-
come self sufficient and, of
course, we have a selfish mo-
tive in encouraging such gov
ernments to maintain freedom
and democracy rather than sue
cumb to the false and phony
promises of communism.
But now we have the pc
culiar situation of an avowed
communist using our money
we have spent about $2.5 bill
lion in foreign aid grants to
Yugoslavia including $116 mil
lion last year-to aid a coun-
try we are trying to save
from communism.
Since the Bay of Pigs fiasco,
six Latin American govern
ments have been overthrown.
Each time the Administration
has expressed diSmay but has
failed to recognize the insecu-

cumstances, it is certainly not
surprising that a military jun
ia should overthrow a weak
government before it is under
mined by communists.
So here we find ourselvese
in the position Of substituting a
communist dictator to go forth

too, are subsidizing-we in the

83 Diseases
By Animals

Since there are over 83
animal diseases which can be
given to man, it is a good idea
to observe a few simple pre-
cautions whenever you might
come in contact with any in
fected animals. The following
are among the most common
forms of animal infection.
Rabies is no doubt the best
known of these infections. Both
wild and domestic animals can
transmit it. With rabies the
most important thing is to
diagnose the disease before the
symptoms develop. First the
bite wounds and skin breaks
should be thoroughly washed
with soap and water and your
family doctor consulted, and
then the biting animal should
be observed carefully to see If
there are any signs of rabies.
Rocky Mountain spotted fever
is spread by infected wood ticks
which are carried by dogs, rab-
bits, and other small animals.
Fever, rash, a severe headache
and sometimes pneumonia are
symptoms of this disease. If
your area is heavily infested, it
might be a wise precaution to
take a series of immuniZing
shots early in the spring.
Brucellosis or undulant fever
is carried by cattle, sheep and
goats. 1t is possible to detect
infected animals by means of
a simple test.
Parrot fever is carried by
many kinds of birds such as
chickens, ducks, loyebirds and
Iparakeets. Its symptoms re-
semble those of influenza and
pneumonia.
Rabbit fever or tularemia is
carried by many small wild
animals such as rabbits, squir-
rels, oppossums and skunks.
This disease can be caught by
hunters or their wives who skin
and clean infected small game.
Wearing rubber gloves when
skinning animals is advisable,
since the disease is transmitted
through a cut or scratch. The
first sign of rabbit fever is an
ulcerlike sore at the point of
contact. This is followed by
headache, chills, fever. back
ache and general weakness. If
you should have any question a
bout being infected, consult your
family doctor Immediately.

vice of your doctor through the
