From the Milwaukee the following Is quoted: "To promote subsistence gardens this company last year appointed division relief committees all along Its line. This policy is being followed again this year. Organization of garden clubs is encouraged. "Division superintendents are authorized by the management to grant the privilege to the division committees at any point to use vacant property in any community where it is available for the growing season of 1932, and by its use will not endanger In any manner the safety of the people using the ground." fleers, aided by an Interpreter, questioned the prisoner almost continuously until he broke down. Hum steadfastly maintained he was an American-born Chinaman and was, therefore, a citizen.

Papers taken from him at the time of his arrest, however, proved to be his downfall. Hum told how he was taken aboard the freighter on a pitch black night and concealed In the hold of the ship. Ventilation was poor and meals such as they were were furnished only at night. The compartment to which he had been assigned was not much, larger than an apple box and he was unable to He down to rest. For more than three weeks he did not see the light of day nor have any exercise, he told officers.

As the boat approached San Francisco he was warned that any noise on his part would result In his arrest and deportation to China. For hours he stood in one position, fearing that his presence aboard ship would be found out. Immigration officers boarded the ship, made a thorough search and cleared the boat's papers. Early one morning about two days after the steamer docked, Hum was taken on deck and given his final instructions. Then he slid down a rope to the water's edge and plunged Into the chilling waters of the bay.

For a time, he said, he thought he would die from exposure but managed to swim quietly to a designated pier. There he found a guide who took him to a hotel, where he was given dry clothing, food and papers that would show he was an American born Chinaman. He had learned to speak only a few words of English when he was sent away. The ocean voyage was taken In 1924. Since that time he has moved about from city to city, living with his countrymen and evading officers of the law even evading contacts with all except Chinese people.

Papers furnished him In San Francisco which he had been told would clear him In case of arrest proved to be hl3 downfall. The papers proved beyond a doubt he had been smuggled Into the country. Hum Is being held at the county Jail pending his deportation to his mother country. The Investigation of Hum's case was conducted under direction of Walter Bliss, chief immigration officer, with headquarters at Helena.

C. BBTANT Special Correspondent of The Tribune. WASHINGTON. June 6. The president's organization on unemployment relief calls attention to railroads that are promoting "subsistence gardens" for their employes or former employes.

It says the roads generally are encouraging this means of food production. Among roads mentioned are the Great Northern and the Milwaukee. It quotes from the Great Northern as follows: "Of course we are glad to co-operate In this work because we consider it Is beneficial to the employes and the people along our right of way, and also assists us In keeping the right of way clean. "In our part of the country there is not as much congestion as in the east and we have parcels of land at important terminals where the greatest number of men are out of work and on part time. There Is sufficient of such land to accommodate all that may wish to use It for garden purposes.

At our smaller stations land Is always available for station employes If they desire to use it and along our right of way there la sufficient land to accommodate maintenance of way department employes. From this you will see there Is no shortage of available ground for gardening purposes on our line. Last year on the lines of Williston, N. D. 255 garden permits were issued.

LAST DAY Special to The Tribune. BUTTE, June 6.

The story almost tragic In Its details of how a Chinese youth was smuggled Into this country in 1924, was told here when federal officers finally got a confession which revealed all facts In his case; of how he paid $1,000 to his smugglers, of having been hid day and night In a space little bigger than an apple box and of light rations handed to him under the cover of darkness. Such was the price paid by Hum Gung, 23, Chinese, for transportation and admission to the United States. Hum Gung was arrested a week ago in a raid and for seven days, of- FINAL RITES AREHELDFOR HELENA MAN Guy LaFolIette, Member of Independent Staff for Years, Is Buried Special to The Tribune.

T. La Follette family lived In Nebraska for several years, returning to Wisconsin, where Guy La Follette attended school and the university at Madison. He was first employed as parser on boats of the United Fruit company between New York and Colon. Later he Joined his father and brothers in newspaper publishing in South Dakota and Iowa and was employed successively on the Des Moines Register, Sioux City Tribune and papers In Oregon. In the latter state he spent some years on a homestead near Bend.

EARLY AS 18 Sheriff Anderson of Broadus Owns Copy of First Volume Compiled Special to The Tribune. BROADUS, June 6. Sheriff Claude Anderson has a copy of the tot brand book issued by the Montana and Dakota Stockmen's association, published to cover the years of 1835 and 1886.

At that time Col. Thomas J. Bryan of Miles City was president of the association and K. B. Harrison of Helena was secretary-treasurer.

Mr, Harrison was a son of Benjamin Harrison, president of the United States. On the executive committees of the various sections of these two terri tories the Dakota group Included the names of Theodore Roosevelt, former president of the United States, and Marquis De Mores, colorful French nobleman, who attempted to establish a great packing plant at Medora In what is now North Dakota. The brand of Theodore Roosevelt, a Maltese cross, Is listed In the book Some of the brands now In existence are in the volume. The Lazy SL of Oliver H. Wallop at Ashland was until recently a familiar sight on cattle In the western part of the county.

He died in Eng land not long ago. W. Craig McDowell, who still lives on his place near Brandenberg, had his 7C brand listed at that time. The Mlzpah, Livestock company, whose brand was LO, was la existence at that time and the home ranch between Beebe and Powderville is still known as the LO ranch. The Northern Cattle company, whose SH brand Is still In use In the county, Is now owned by Kenneth McLean.

The Murphy Cattle company, which grazed large herds on Powder, river bottoms, is among the members mentioned In the brand book. This con cern was eastern owned and finally lost everything through poor man agement. At one time It made a shipment of 410 cars of cattle to New York city. The company paid Its general manager $50,000 a year and the range bosses were paid $3,500 a year. That la hard to realize In times such as this.

Howes, Strsvell Miles was an old- time firm using the Circle Bar brand now used by Levi Howes. AL and CAL were brands of P. Howes on Otter creek and are now the property of Mr. and Mrs. Levi Howes.

JO, the brand of the Chariton Mon tana Cattle company, Is in use today by Terrett Bros, of Brandenberg. The book was the property of the late J. C. Anderson, father of Sher iff Anderson, whose brand was GRD but was not listed, as it had not been recorded at that time, although Mr. Anderson was a member of the association.

June 6. Sheep shearing has commenced In Valley county. A crew of 10 is working under Harry Sanborn of Yakima, at the Fred Collins ranch on Willow creek, where about 7,000 sheep in several bands will be sheared. The crew will shear 40,000 sheep in this county at the rate of from 1,200 to 1,500 a day. They will also work on the Bretzke, Etchepare, Cooper and other ranches.

They began work In Washington In March and came direct from there to Valley county. art and music, and several other things which are being ruthlessly and recklessly abandoned In districts where school finances have not been wisely administered. "It should be more generally recognized that this drastic reduction in the budget for 1932-33 has been In the minds of the board members for over a year. The stable policy of constructive economy indicated the wisdom of taking advantage of the "fat years" for the coming "lean years" which have now overwhelmed us." It Is savings of this kind, brought about by a careful study of all expenditures, that are to be fully commended. We therefore are reaching the certain conclusion by these discussions that in this great field of local taxation there may yet be gathered a great harvest of saving.

The laborers are too few. There must be Individual and organized effort. I may have paid plenty of attention to my own taxes. It is equally important that I become Interested In the taxes of my neighbor. When we unite in fairly directed community effort, we can then surely make each dollar do a dollar's worth of service.

The politicians in many places will levy taxes In an extravagant fashion when, or as long as, we let them do It. They will be obliged to forego this much-abused privilege whenever and wherever men and women, who actually foot the bills, unite and really try to control public expenditure Just as departments and costs are governed la a well directed private Republican and Democratic Groups Going to Chicago to Represent Montana By W. E. LOWELL Associated Press Staff Writer HELENA, June 6. VP) Toward the end of this week Montana's delegates to the republican national conven tion will be starting, by rail or auto, toward Chicago, where they will par ticipate, beginning June 14, in de liberations that will result In se lection of presidential and vice presidential candidates and the draft of a party platform.

Delegates to the democratic con' vention will be making the same pilgrimage two weeks later. Their convention begins June 27. In the republican convention Mon tana has 11 votes, and Is represented by that number of delegates and an equal number of alternates, selected at the state convention last month. Being a convention delegate from Montana is rather a labor of love While the state law providing for selection of delegates provides that they may be allowed $200 each for their expenses, no legislature ever has made an appropriation for that pur pose and each delegate faces the certainty of expending between $200 and $300 for the privilege of representing his party. The privilege also is restricted in other ways.

The republican delegates are bound by their state convention to support President Hoover as the party's standard bearer. They also were pledged to support a national referendum on prohibition and to "propose. Introduce, advocate and vote for" a plank providing for duties on copper, lumber and crude oil, and to try for federal assistance In stimulating the gold mining Industry. Experienced delegates are not lacking in the delegation. T.

A. Marlow of Helena has participated in six previous meetings. O. H. P.

Shelley of Red Lodge, In four; W. C. Husband, two; Dr. J. B.

MacKenzle of Havre and A. W. Miles of Livingston, one each, and Congressman Scott Leavitt, republican, and Secretary Joseph M. Dixon also are "old hands" on the convention floor. Only one woman graces the republican list, Grace D.

Catlin of Missoula, an alternate. Business Interests of the delegates are almost as varied as their number would permit. In addition to Congressman Leavitt, a forester, end Dixon, a lawyer and assistant secretary of the Interior, the republican list Includes a rancher, an abstractor, a banker, a physician, two newspaper men, a stockman, an Investment broker and three attorneys, one of whom also is an abstractor. One delegate is a veteran of the World war. With three transcontinental rail roads from which to choose, the delegates of both parties are going by varied routes, a few by automobile.

Most of them plan to reach Chicago Just before the convention, several planning visits to relatives in nearby cities before or after the meetings. Hotel accommodations already have been made for the delegates by the national committeeman, Joseph D. Scanlan, republican, who also Is state chairman. They will make headquarters at the Hotel Sherman. Railroads have made rates of fare and a third for the round trip and.

In anticipation of the probability that some Mon-tanans other than the delegates may make the trip, Mr. Scanlan suggests that they Join the Montana del egation and "make a family affair Kit.

As our tax system becomes more complex evidence accumulates that a study Is necessary of how we can arrange a plan of state and federal taxes so that encroachment upon one or the other may be put out of the general revenue scheme. Large concerns do business In several states. A competent board, made up of members representing the government and the states, could devise plans, greatly Improve the present situation and make our taxation statutes easier of execution. The saving would more than cover the cost. The largest and most wholesome results In tax reform and economy are brought about by study and by education extending over a period of years.

I am able to emphasize this statement by alluding to the work of the Montana Taxpayers association, which is an organization that has been studying our local tax problems for 11 years, it is supported by some of the larger taxpayers and, through adequate bulletins, tells the people where the Montana tax dollar goes. It fully covers the Increases and decreases in the state, county, municipal and school district expenditures setting forth not only the situation in each unit of government but the total for the whole state. It keeps tab on bonded obligations up or down also warrant Indebtedness of every kind. Probably this consistent supply of accurate, nonpartisan and freely available information ha3 been lareelv instrumental fnr in stance, in bringing It about so that the net indebtedness of the counties of Montana has been reduced from nearly 828,000,000 in 1923 to less than $16,000,000 In 1931 and i still tnintf down. Forty-six counties out of 56 counties oi tne state reduced their tax bill in 1931, as compared with 1930.

These results have, part, been broustht about because uim years ago the Montana Taxpayers association assumed the task of having amenaea ana revised the laws authorizes the issus of bond hff rmtn. ties, school districts and municipalities. This service was completely accomplished with the 1931 session of the legislature. Montana now has strict budget laws for aU forms of government, including state, county, cities and schools. The county budget law has been in since 1929, the school budget law became effective July 1931, and ex penditures nave Deen reduced about 10 percent.

The city budget law will EO into effect Julv 1 est th! Tnar rl should accomplish like results. curing xne last io years to a considerable extent through the efforts Of this association, the tninnvor. nf Montana have become tax conscious ana government expenditures have not increased to an alarming extent. Just a few days ago I observed in my home school district, a notable application of the budget system resulting in a 20 percent saving for the current year in dollars and cents $166,722.74. A complete study of expenditures was made and the' savings wlU become effective In every department.

For example: Administration purposes reduced from $45,000 to $38,000. Instruction purposes reduced from $443,000 to $360,000. Operating Items reduced from $86,000 to $76,000. Maintenance reduced from $25,000 to Capital outlay reduced from to $18,000. And so on down the line.

The concluding remarks of the superintendent so clearly outline wholesome procedure In economical administration of a local governmental unit that I would like to quote the closing words of his report as follows: "Several points should be noticed la connection with our program: It Is a program of retrenchment, rather than abandonment; or. If you wlU, a program of constructive economy rather than one ot destructive economy. instead of dropping, we are curtailing.
