W. Chase, grand marshal of the grand lodge of the Odd Fellows, at two meetings yesterday outlined the 1940 program of the organization--one of the largest and oldest in the United States. 1 Brotherhood and character building will be alms of the year's activities of the 120-year-old lodge. Mr, Chase, a special deputy grand sire of the lodge, came to the Mining city as a representative of George 3. Starrett, Columbia, grand sire of the sovereign grand lodge.

Odd Fellows from many parts of Montana, including state lodge officers, were in Butte to hear Mr. Chase outline the lodge head's program. He spoke at a meeting at 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon in Fidelity hall, and again at 8 o'clock in the same hall. The sovereign grand lodge marshal, who Is also grand secretary of the Wyoming I. O.

O. and lives at Casper, said that Mr. Starrett's program contains an organized plan lo educate lodge members to fully understand the lodge and to promote co-operation and coordination between lodges and members. Mr. Chase is a veteran in Odd Fellowship.

He has been active in the lodge for 28 years and is now a full-time worker in the fraternal organization which he says has 1,500,000 members in 11,855 lodges throughout the i world. Creed Unchanged, Speaking with intense interest In his subject, Ihe Wyoming man said that the creed of the Odd Fellow has been, since 1819, to "elevate man's character, broaden his views towards fellow men, and to promote tolerance." "Much of the important work done by Ihe fraternity has not received a great deal of publicity and little-known," Mr. Chase said. 'For Instance, it is not generally cnown that relief work and charity Is an important part of the lodge's work. The Odd Fellows built the first old folks' home ever erected and now spends about $6,000,000 annually for relief work and charity.

Lodge officials are much interested in a plan inaugurated last year to establish a moral cducationl program in the schools, Mr. Chase said.

"The plan, carried out in a number of states, is for Odd Fellows to advocate legislation to provide a one-hour class in moral education, for pupils In public he said. "Under the plan, pupils may spend one hour each week In churches of their own selection, receiving credit for the hour in school." Mr. Chase said that fraternal organizations have lost heavily In membership during the recent depression. "But this decline Is not wholly the fault of the hard times," he said. "Part of the cause Is that Uie lodges do not keep up with the times, and 'officials do not work hard enough in such times." The Wyoming man lives in a city of 18,000 population, of wttich 1,453 persons are members of Odd' Fellow branches.

"I guess Casper has more Odd Fellows in proportion to its total populalio'n than any other town in the world" Mr. Chase smiled. "This is mostly due to the efforts of lodge officers."

When heavy snow starts to fly this winter, Mr, Healy said, snow plows will be placed on 24-hour call, and streets be sanded as soon as possible. All roads to the mines will be kept open and will be kept sanded thoroughly, he said. (Continued From Page 1.) Next year the huge structure Is to oe "polished," control shafts and valves completed and power plant installed. Already a lake 24 miles long, seven miles across st its widest point and containing some 50 billion gallons of water has formed behind the dam, which was closed June 24,1937. Some time in the future, possibly by 1M4 or 1945, the lake will be 130 miles long, have a maximum clear width of 16 miles, a shore line of 1,600 miles, and store 19,412,000 acre feet of water.

Virtual completion of the dam this fall marks the end of the boom days on the northeastern Montana prairie. 10,000 Employed. Wlien construction work, was at its peak In 1936, more than 10,000 men were employed. About 3,700 men were working this year, but next year, Major Kittrcll estimates, 500 workers will be able to do the job. One untoward accident marked building of the dam.

On September 22, 138, a section of the upstream face of the structure, 2,000 feet long and between 200 and 300 feet wide, slid into the reservoir carrying eight men to death. Engineers said the earth movement "was merely a local condition." "No basic engineering defects were found after the slide," Major Kittrell said. "The board of consulting engineers which examined the dam after the slide Recommend- ed'a few minor structural changes, which have been made. "If we weren't'sure the dam was solid in way, ready to stand forever, we wouldn't be finishing the job." When dredges finish the task of pumping hydraulic fill Into the dam, the $114,000,000 structure will contain about 1,250,000,000 cubic yards of dirt and gravel--five times as much as in the Gatton dam in Panama, the world's largest earth fill dam.

The Port, Peck dam will store flood waters to be released to maintain this channel during low water periods. It will hold In check, during flood seasons, practically the entire runoff of Uie Missouri river drainage basin, this decreasing the danger of floods in the South and preventing bank erosion. Through a gravity system, it would be possible lo irrigate approximately 80,000 acres of farm land below the dam. Formal approval for construction was given October 14, 1933, scon after the launching ot the federal public works program, and preliminary work was started soon afterward. Before the main job of building got under way the town of Fort Peck was built, a 12-mile railroad line constructed arid a 233-mile power line built from Great Falls to the dam site.

The order provided that many Ider men and those of any age ho tmvp four or more children' iay return to their homes. It followed an unofficial report hat the French had sunk a Gerlan submarine, apparently in the Forth Sea although location as not specified. The report was ven some support by a sem'i-offi- al announcement that French Jssels and seaplanes had carried ufc "several direct attacks and appears one of these at least has een successful."
