New Farm Measure Ready For Introduction In Congress
MEASURE REQUIRES FARM BOARD
WITH GREAT AMOUNT OF CAPITAL
)
PROPOSED BILL WOULD SET UP BOARD OF SEVEN
MEMBERS INCLUDING SECRETARY OF AGRICUL
TURE HAVING CONTROL OF $500,000,000 CAPITAL.
Washington, April 13.—A farm relief bill which President
Hoover has approved will be introduced Monday at the opening of
the special session of the 71st congress, Chairman Haugen of the
house committee announced tonight. A few suggestions for chang
es made by the president at a
House breakfast to committee mem
bers today delayed completion and
announcement of the bill's provisions
scheduled for today, until Sunday or
early Monday. Hoover approved most
of the features of the bill as it now
stands, Haugen said.
Export Bonus Denied
The committee today voted down,
l 7 to 4, a proposal to include the de
benture plan, or export bonus system
in the measure and on a test vote the
old equalization fee proposal was de
feated 17 to 3.
Reading of the bill for amendments
and minor revisions virtually has been
completed. Haugen said 11 pages of
I the 15-page bill have been approved
and the remainder of the draft was
not relatively important.
"We meet at 9:30 a. m. tomorrow
and hope to have the bill completed
before 2 o'clock," Haugen said. "It
will be introduced Monday as soon as
the house is officially organized for
business."
It was authoritatively stated that
the bill will set up a federal farm
board of seven members, including
I the secretary of agriculture. The board
I will be given wide power to administer
a $500,000,000 revolving fund to op
erate stabilization corporations and
aid farmers in marketing their crops.
Hoover to Choose Board
President Hoover will be authorized
to appoint the board members, who
will be confirmed by the senate.
Authority to loan co-operative or
ganizations money in advance of their
crop harvest probably will be given
the board by the legislation. Stabili
zation corporations also will be able
to borrow funds direct from the
board.
new insurance provision empow
ering the board to sell insurance to
co-operatives against loss of their
crops from the revolving fund is in
cluded in the bill.
Other features of the long awaited
measure include power for the board
to designate commodities to
come un

WOLF POINT RADIO
ME VISIT REGINA
Wolf Point.—E. E. Krebsbach of
Station KGCX, J. H. Jacobs, the sta
tion's operator and expert, went to
Regina Monday by air with Jim Cook,
the local Airways Company's pilot, in
the Travelaire bi-plane. The party
did not find flying conditions the very
best as the upper air was extremely
cold. The freezing of the water
cooled motor necessitated two land
ings on the way up and two on the
return. These landings were made
or mishap,
without any difficulty
however, again proving the skill and
training of the local pilot. They re
turned Wednesday afternoon,
The trip was made to gain the
technical knowledge necessary to in
stalling Station KGCX at Wolf Point
and making it a station of 100 watts
or more. The Regina station, CKCK,
is one of the best in the Northwest
and is always easily picked up by re
ceiving sets in this district.
and of counsel for the defendant
was to the effect that Mrs. Swift was
the responsible person and was the
boss of the home.
W. E. Mullikan of Malta, charged
with possession and maintaining a
nuisance, was given 40 days in jail
and a fine of $160.
Twelve defendants were charged
under indictments with smuggling and
were sentenced by the judge following
their pleas of guilty. Bert Darvis of
Plentywood was given a $200 fine and
sentenced to 60 days in the county
jail here, and George Robertson, 19
year-old boy of Shelby, was given a
| 5 0 fine and a 30-day suspended sent
ence with two years on probation.
A 60-day suspended sentence was
given Harold Wilhelm, charged with
smuggling and apprehended 11 miles
northwest of Opheim. Wilhelm is now
employed at the Morony dam, accord
ing to testimony.
27 Sentenced Thursday
Among the law violators from
northeastern Montana sentenced

with selling liquor, was fined $150
and sentenced to serve 40 days in jail,
Earl Stringer of Wolf Point was
fined $100 and given a 60-day sus
pended sentence for possession. His
probation period was fixed at three
years.
William Hudyma of Soobey was giv
en a fine of $1 by the judge. Evidence
revealed by the prohibition officers
was to the effect that Hudyma had
already served several weeks in the
Scobey jail.
Joe Warden of Scobey was fined
$200 and given a sentence of 60 days

KNIGHT HOME NEAR
REDSTONE IS BURNED
„ TJ| e farm . 1101116 of Mr - and Mrs.
William Knight north of Redstone was
burned Sunday morning, together with
a garage which was attached to the
house. A few belonging's were all
that could be saved.
It seems that during the day a fire
had been started in the yar.i which
crept up to the house, hut it was
thought to have been extinguished.
During the night, however, the house
filled with smoke, awakening an older
daughter, who aroused two younger
children, who discovered the building
to be in flames. There was no chance
to put out the flames, s o they tried
to save a few personal belongings
such as clothing, etc. before the
flames drove them from the building.
Mr. and Mrs. Knight were rot home
at the time of the fire, leaving an
older daughter and two younger "child
ren to look after the place during
their absence. Louise Knight, who
was visiting friends in Plentywood
and who had not heard of the fire, is
said to have fainted when she return- I
ed home, thinking that the family had |
perhaps perished in the flames. She!
was very happy to find them all well.
Carl Hovdey Returns from
Hospital At Williston, N. D.
After undergoing a siege of blood
ppison, which at one time was
sidered very serious and losing a por
tion of the index finger of his left
hand, Carl Hovdey, well known Out
look-Raymond farmer, returned Tues
day to Plentywood in good spirits and
ready for spring's work. Carl's many
friends are pleased to hear that he
is able to- be back again with his
whole arm which it was thought would

PLENTYWOOD HIGH
AGAIN ON NORTH
CENTRAL LIST
The Plentywood High School has
recently been advised by the Chair
man of the State Committee that it
was approved for the fourth consecu
tive year by the North Central Asso
ciation of Colleges and Secondary
Schools. Membership in this Associ
ation is given at the annual meeting
he.d in March and is for but one year.
All schools having membership must
make application each year after hav- j
l",?. lia<1 a thorough inspection and
filling out a comprehensive report,
The inspection and reports are taken
care of by the State High School Su
pervisor and a committee of High
, and Universi ty men * !
To be a member of this Association
is a real distinction when one consid
ers that out of 212 High Schools ini
Montana there are but 40 that have
been able to get approvla for mem
bership. Many different points are]
taken into consideration in accepting
a school. Thß more important items j
are, the training and tenure of teach-1
ers, the equipment in library, labora
tories, and classrooms, and the spirit i
or morale of the pupils in the school. !
A teacher of academic subjects must 1
be a graduate of a four year college 1
or university that is a member of the
association and must have specialized
in those subjects he is teaching, A
member High School must have at
least five full time teachers of whom
four must be teachers of academic
subjects. This latter regulation some
times prevents a good small High
School from membership. One of the
chief reasons for limiting the mini
mum number of academic teachers is
the difficulty of keeping a teacher in
his own field of specialization in the
small High School.
There is a distinct advantage to the
graduates of a North Central High
School since they may enter any of
the Colleges or Universities in these
twenty North Central State without
question. Approximately 2250 High
Schools are members for this year and
many others are rejected each year
because of inability to qualify for
0 ne or more reasons. The chief aim
0 f the Association is to raise stand
ar ds in both the Higher Institutions
and the High Schools of the North
Central States. The advantages
granted to member schools are many,
but the chief gain in striving for
membership is found in the improved
condition of the school in that com
munity whose High School has been
able to meet the regulations and
stanadrds of this Association,

JOE REDMOND GETS
CARLOAD OF TIRES
The first carload of tires ever un
loaded in Plentywood for one business
firm arrived in this city the first of
the week consigned to The Tire Shop.
The tires were taken by the truckload
to the Riba State Bank basement,
which has been leased by Mr, Red
mond, where the tires will keep in
the best of condition. When an in
quiring reporter ventured the remark
that that was some hunch of tires,
Mr. Redmond said, oh, no, he sold
three carloads last year and did not
figure these would last very long.

MADSEN TAGGING
UNLICENSED CARS
Those Tagged Must Repolrt to Sher
iff s Office At fhvee and Apply for
Licenses or Take Chances on Prose
cution and $100 Fine.
I
Sheriff Madsen and his force of
assistants, true to their word, got
busy immediately after April 15th
rounding up all of those people who
are on the roads with unlicensed cars.
Last Monday morning the officers
went out with tags and whenever a
car was found with a 1928 license, a
tag was attached instructing the own
er to appear at oncé at the sheriff's
office and attend to this duty pronto
without further parley or delay or he
prepared to face arrest and possible
conviction and a fine of $100. It is
reported that a surprisingly large
number of cars were tagged and that
Deputy Sheriff Murry has been busy
all week, working overtime, making
out applications foç_ licenses.
Sheriff Madsen in an interview
with a representative of the Produc
ers News seemed "hard boiled" on the
proposition. He said he he was mak-
ing the rounds of the villages of the
county and would tag all cars as he
found them, and that he or his depu-
ties would stop all cars found*on the
road and tag them. He said there are
a lot of cars in the county that did
not get licenses last year and that it
was his opinion that those who are
driving cars which were not licensed
last year would not only have to get
licenses for this year but for last year
1 as well, before they could get licenses
j for this year. The sheriff says that
j after April 30th, a penalty of ten
per cent must be added and that all
not having complied with the law by
that time would he prosecuted.
There has been, it is reported, a
rush for licenses during the past few
days.

DAWES TO BE AMBAS
!
SADOR TO BRITAIN
Washington, April 16.—In appoint
ing Charles G. Dawes, former vice
president, to be ambassador to Great
Britain, President Hoover again has
pushed aside the bureaucratic, red
tape artists and tea hounds and
adopted the business man's direct
way of dealing with the nation's most
serious foreign problem, the adjust
ment of Anglo-American difficulties 1
growing out of the naval dispute.
Dawes, regarded by many as one
the most blunt, outspoken men in j
public life, has been selected for the
most delicate foreign undertaking in
the Hoover administration. |
President Hoover recently made in
quiry of the British government as to
whether Dawes would be an accept
able successor to Alanson B. Hough
ton, who was resigning. Word was
received from London Wednesday that
the appointment would be regarded I
with favor. Announcement according- !

Land Undervalued
"Land in Montana is much under
valued and within the next five years
thru proper tillage and summerfallow
methods the real value will be placed
and it should be at least from $10 to
$20 an acre higher."
Senator Schnitzler returned a couple
of weeks ago from the east where he
attended the inauguration ceremonies
of President Hoover on March 4th
and also took occasion to visit New
York and call upon several of those
interested in the exporting of wheat.
At Washington Sen. Schnitzler busied
himself with the promotion of the
prposition to put former governor Joe
Dixon into the department of the in
terior and Dixon's appointment
first assistant secretary of the inter
ior was due in no small part to the
activities of the Roose'velt county
farmer. Questioned as to the pros
pects for the Montana farmer this
year by a representative of the Pro
ducers News, Mr. Schnitzler, stated
very pointedly:
"For the careful operator on Mon
tana »land there is only prosperity
ahead." He remarked further that
"Land in Montana is very much un
dervalued and that within the next
five years thru proper tillage and
summer fallow methods the real
as
value will be placed and it should
be at least from $10 to $20
higher. It is true that we are in a
transition period in the methods of
farming in this section and that con
siderable concern is felt by the ul
tra-conservatists just now on ac
count of the shift to power farming
the incoming trainloads of tràctors,
combines and tank loads of gasoline.
It is fearéd that the farmers are
taking on a load which will eventu
ally carry them into bankruptcy.
