Mil- loy, secretary of the North Dakota association, who recently conferred with A. J. Breitenstein, secretary of thé Montana organization. “Last year,” Milloy s: “the Mon- tana Automobile association put over a three-cent gas-tax law and has worked out a complete highway pro- groom for that state, With that task completed, it is turning its attention to duties similar to those of the tour- ists and good roads bureau of the Greater North Dakota association. “It will publish a 1927 map of Montana patterned after the Greater | y North Dakota association highway map of North Dakota. By reciprocal arrangement, quantities of the maps of both states will be available to| members of both organizations, “In the past, Montana has not pub- ished a state map for free distribu- ion, und service to tourists traveling | across the two states has been handi-| capped because of this. With the Montana Automobile association de- voting its energy in this direction, however, that situation is to be reme- died. This will be welcome news to| £ voted down and he the an amendment to giv he same appropriation as the our branch officers in North Dakota, as well as to sustaining members operating branch information bureaus, To Issue Buiietins “The Montana organizations will al- issue a weekly bulletin on road tions similar to that of — the| er North Dakota association, | which is issued in cooperation with! the state highway commission, during | the touring season. Our office will| furnish branch offices of the Mon-| tana association with the North Da-| kota bulletin and in return the Mon-| tana bulletin will be available to all, branch offices of the Greater North | Dakota association, “Indications point to a determined | effort on the part of the Montana as-| sociation to seek and serve motor} tourists. The people of that state; have been long aware of the profits | accruing from the tourist industry and now they are aware of the value of ‘tourists from the standpoint of immi- gration. “Montana this year will join hands with North Dakota in seeking to en courage motor travel from farm sec- tions of mid-west states. When Mon- ) tana launches its drive, it will mean many more tourists traveling through | North Dakota. That is one of the principal reasons why we are offer- ing the Montana organization com- plete cooperation. We have enjoyed very splendid cooperation with Minne- sota and Winnipeg in the past and cooperation with Montana add: oth- er link to the service available to : motor tourists, =| “After this cooperative working arrangement between Minnesota, North Dakota and Montana has been tried out this year, we are planning} a conference of men from cach of the three states and will eyentually work out some plan for uniting in a cam- paign to divert more tourists across the so-called northern route, which crosses these three states. “Such a step on the part of the Ten Thousand Lukes association of Min- the Greater North Dakota association * and the Montana automobile associa- tion, would play an important part in the development of the northwest,” Milloy said. House Defeats Proposal to Limit Courses Taught (Continued from page one) its students go into the professions, he said, and but few return to the farms. ' His idea, he explained, is to save money by preventing dupli- cation of work and transferring cer- tain activities of the agricultural college to the state university, He that such a course would pave $500,000 each biennium. Fowler Defends College W. Fowler, Cass county, de- the agricultural college, © out that the subjects taught tly allied to various phases of agriculture and that the federal daw making the institution a land grant college requires it to devote} some time to teaching men whon-can | qualify as instructors in agriculture. The fact that the bill war directed at one institution leaves room for doubt as to whether it was conceived as a political proposition, he suid. Elimination of the pharmacy schoo! would require students who wished training in that subject to go out- side the state since the state uni versity has no pharmacy coyr: Fowler said, and asked the members to take & broad view of the subject and support a well-rounded educa- tional system which would offer some real advantages to North Da- kota boys and girls. The arts and literature courses are adjuncts of the agricultural courses-and are de-|\ signed to give students taking agri- cultural courses a broader view of! life and affairs, he explained. William Watt, Cass county, chair- Iman of the ApprebsIMtobs commit- tee, cited the budget of the institu- tion to show that not more than $50,000 a year would be saved if the| curtailment in courses were made. The bill was killed without a record vote. ‘The battle over the fair appropria- tion opened with Nonpartisans and others attempting to amend the mea- sure so that the money would be used in supporting county agricul- tural fairs. Swett, who offered the amendment, said the small county fairs need help more than the state fairs need it. He expressed opposi- tion to four state fairs, saying there “Should be only one. Twichell accused Swett of trying to kill the bill and pointed out that no bills had been introduced seek- ing help for county fairs. Watt jointed out the value of high-class fairs as demonstrated in Europe and this country and said there is no bet- ter agency for promoting the breed- i of higher quality livestock. When one soos the poor quality, of livestock delivered at terminals from some North Dakota farms, he doesn’t wonder that those farmers are leav- ing the land, he said.
