LAUREL OUTLOOK Published Every Wednesday at Laurel, Montana, by JOSEPH GEHRETT & CAMPBELL CALVERT Subscription $2.50 Per Annum in Advance Entered as Second-class Matter July 14, 1909, at the postoffice at Laurel, Mont., under act of March 3, 1879 NATIONAL €DITORIAL_ ~ ' " ASSOCIATION rettet yyiurXf/t-. m> TIED UP IN DEBATE Neai'ly everybody who has given serious thought to the pos sibility of establishing permanent peace in the world understands the necessity of having an effective international police force. General Joseph T. McNamey, American representative to the United Nations, declares that "there just isn't going to be an international security force" until certain basic differences between Russia and the Western nations can be solved. The general says that the United States insists that each country should furnish armed forces according to its ability but that Russians insist that each power should make available equal forces. This, he declared, "would be a fraud on the smaller nations" and prevent the nations that are able and willing to supply the units needed from making the international security force high ly mobile and able to function. In addition, the Russians and the Western powers are in disagreements as to the right of the international force to use bases and to fly across territory of United Nations members and also upon the location of the forces when they are not in use. From all the best information we can get the only real at tempt that has been made to curb inflation is by words and phrases and earlier experience has taught most of us that that is a poor substitute for real action. Before an autoist should blame a tree or telephone pole for an accident, it would be well to remember that neither one ever lost an automobile accident case in court. CALENDAR VJoming Events..

Tiny Atom Bomb Viewed As Aid in Disease Battle BERKELEY, CALIF.—Possibility of planting and exploding tiny atom bombs within living human bodies to wipe out localized concentrations of disease has been raised by experi ments of that kind on animals. . Feasibility of this idea, which was suggested by Dr. C. A. Tobias, as sistant professor medical physics at University of California, depends upon whether scientists can develop ways of controlling the power of the explosions and whether they can de vise methods of planting explosive atoms in the right places within the body.

Laurel Woman Recognizes Famous Trainer and Leopard Appearing In Laurel Outlook Picture A picture and news item in last week's Laurel Outlook was of more than usual interest to one Laurel resident, Miss Mabel Solum who came from Sarasota, Fla., last Jan uary to assist her girlhood friend, Mrs. Carl M. Brenden of Laurel, during an illness in the latter's fam ily. Before coming here Miss Solum had been spending the winter in Florida as the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Damoo Dhotre. Dhotre is considered the world's leading cat trainer. He was born in Poona, India, and joined his uncle's circus at the age of 11, He played in China, France, Germany, England and Russia. The leopard draped around his shoulders in the picture is named Champion and is one of his favorites, but perhaps his greatest favorite is a female cat named Sonya with whom he stages a dance act, with the huge, grace At the time Miss Solum was in Sarasota the circus was in winter quarters and the trainers were spending their time teaching the animals new acts and also eradieat ing the bad habits the animals con tract while on the road on tour. None are punished for misdmean- j crs while on tour and some of the j wilier ones, like bad children, sense j that fact and commit breaches of conduct which they would never at-1 tempt in winter quarters.

The mother leopards usually kill their young in captivity, crushing them to death in tneir protective zeal. Few have ever been reared. There then began for Mrs. Dhotre a year as hectic and sleepless as comes to any mother with a delicate, collicky baby to care for. The form ulaeus were of necessity experiment al as no pediatrician has ever ana lyzed a leopard's milk. For weeks Mrs. Dhotre would get up every two hours at night to give Sparkie his bottle. He thrived and and at length celebrated his first birthday. He became so large that neighbors were apprehensive, so the a private animal zoo. Miss Solum went with her friend, grew [Mrs. Dhotre, j him. He would come bounding to the bars, uttering a crooning cry of [welcome—beside himself with de light at seeing the only mother he | had ever known. Mrs. Dhotre would ! stretch her arm through the bars ! and Sparkie w r ould take it in his paws and fondle and caress it af fectionately. He quickly came to identify Miss Solum with the Dhotres and would caress her arm in the same way. In the April issue of Holiday magazine there is a feature article about Dhotre and Sparkie. Mrs. Dhotre and Miss Solum are friends of long standing. Both re sided in Chicago and Washington, D. C., prior to the former's mar riage to the famous leopard trainer.
