Kibler, veterans placemen: offi- cer of the federal re-employment serv- ice, Friday night told local legion- naires that he hopes for the enact- ment of a veterans preference act the next session of the state legis! ture. He spoke at the first meeting held by local veterans since the beginning’ of the summer vacation last June. Reporting his activities, Kibler warned veterans seeking employment {through the federal service not to mis- |represent their abilities.

Pieces of her clothing lay scattered along the highway and an automobile tire leaned against a post near the blood-stained spot where she was found.

Nye said in his speech there was no longer need for wonderment as to why governments “get nowhere in an effort to be freed from the fright- Be expense burdens which these sales lan. “The investigating committee has only scratched the surface thus far, but this mere scratching has re- vealed frightful sores which the world has been all too long in observ- ing and studying. It is no longer dif- ficult to see why the world has not progressed as respects disarmament causes. “Perhaps it is too strong to say that they are in partnership, but it is cer- tainly true that makers and govern- ment are closely cooperating in pro- moting the world-wide sale of muni- tions of war. “When the Investigation ts com- pleted and the whole story is ready for telling, our country and the world are going to see the need for curbing these merchants of death and their business; are going to see that so long as there is chance for personal profit in war and preparation for it, just that long is there going to be grave difficulty in winning and hold- ing peace upon this earth.” PICKUP ROBBERS ~TRAL IN MONTANA Rosen’s Car Abandoned at Bil- lings; Missing Door Gives Police Clue The trail of three young robbers, believed by local police to have stolen Al Rosen's car here Wednesday night, became warm again Saturday with reports from Billings, Mont.. that the Bismarck man's car had been abandoned there. From Glendive, Mont., came re- ports that three men driving a large sedan had made good their escape from that city after being caught try- ing to steal gasoline from a filling station. Glendive police said the car could be easily identified because there was no rear door. The rear door had been torn off on a station pump as the robbers fled. ‘When Rosen's machine was found at Billings one rear deqr was miss- ing and considerable other damage had been done. Through these reports local po- lice believe that they have definitely established that the three young men who were brought to Bismarck Wed- nesday morning efter abandoning a light coupe in the ditch near Sterling, were the men who took Rosen's car. A Driscoll farmer told police of bringing the men to Bismarck after the coupe had hit and killed a horse near Sterling. Police had been try- ing to link those men with the theft of Rosen’s car and the reports from the two Montana cities confirmed their beliefs. LEAGUE OF NATIONS GIVES SOVIETS BID Movement Under Way to Ob- tain from Russia Pledge of Religious Liberty Geneva, Sept. 15.—()—After weeks of public and private wrangling among delegations, the League of Na- tions Saturday invited Soviet Russia to become a member. A telegram containing the tidings was dispatched at once to Moscow, and the international diplomats set- tled back to see what Russia's answer would be. ‘The invitation followed the circula- tion among the delegates of an ‘vitation which 33 promptly signed. Even as the invitation went forth, &@ movement was under way to obtain from Russia a pledge that religious liberty would be established in the Soviet republics. The pledge sought would follow the general lines of the isuggestion made by President Eamon de Valera of the Irish Free State that Russia be asked to generalize the as- surance of religious liberty made to the United States when the Soviets were recognized by America.

Editor Tribune: Your remarks in issue of 6th re- garding the Old Age Revolving Fund as formulated by that brainy Cali- fornian Mr. Townsend calls for a word from one of the future beneficiaries of that organization. Let us look at @ few of the high It ts not only that we old people are to be the recipients of a handsome income during the brief wind up of our so- journ on this planet—that we are free from the task of keeping the big kad wolf away—free from the haunt- ing fear of what the future holds in store for us—free from the daily work that is far in excess of our ability to perfom—no that is really the smallest part of this remarkable plan. The neglected old gent will, it is true, be fished out of the basement or bailed down from the attic— brushed off and made much of by ‘his endearing relatives—for two hundred dollars a month is a nice thing to snuggle up to and “Honor thy father and mother” will doubtless function as it has never functioned | before. But do you realize what it will mean to this nation when every per- lson over 60 years of age has $200 which they must spend each month. Can you visualize the enormous pur- chasing power suddenly turned loose— it will mean the operiing of factories long closed, many of them to operate 24 hours a day. The wholesale an@ retail stores swamped with orders. Debts long considered worthless gladly paid. Millions of young men out of employment will take the places of the old men who with s “praise God” sigh, will step down and out into the green pastures and beside the still waters. Can’t you see grandpa going down into his fat weaselskin and helping Bill pay up his taxes—and the interest on the mortgage. And grandma com- ing across with the dough to enable Jack to finish his course in college— and allow Katherine to continue with those advanced music lessons. ‘We are told that the big banks are bursting with money but as the Pathfinder said “Just try and get some of it.” This embalmed money {8 “out” so far as the masses are con- cerned. It arrived at its destination or. a one way ticket. But that leads into another subject and I will only \say that barring the purchase of in- terest-bearing bonds the stuff has lit- itle earning value to its owners even {because they dare not loan “ to af {drapoverished people. I believe that even Mr. Townsnd, the creator of this plan to end de- pression now and forever, will be amazed at the lightning transforma- tion that will take place in OUR United States. And the luxury tax which will largely produce this fund will be regarded as peanut money {when compared with the benefits de- rived. Yours for a glorious future. J. F.
