GREATEST FOREST FIRE
DISASTER IN HISTORY
; The Governors of Montana and
| Idaho and the Regional Forester
'of the Forest Service, Department
jof Agriculture, for that region have
! joined in a statement calling at
Itention to the heavy damage done
i by forest fires in Montana and
Idaho and urging the public to
aid in averting the “potential dis
aster” which faces the northern
Rocky Mountain area.
Fifty ranches burned in the
region in two weeks, 200 persons
were made homeless, towns were
! in danger and some were swept
by fire, and weather conditions
continued critical.
Governor John E. Erickson of
Montana has joined with Gover
nor C. Ben Ross of Idaho and Re
gional Forester Evan W. Kelley, in
charge of the National Forests of
northern Idaho and Montana, in
issuing a statement regarding the
urgency of the present fire sit
uation in that region say in part,
that:
“Potential disaster stalks thru
fields and forests of the northern
Rocky Mountain region today.
“National, State and private ag
encies are fighting the ‘red de
mon;’ these men have been under
jheavj and increasing pressure for
| more than six solid weeks. Every
new fire not only adds to their
| burden, but increases the risks
which all communities, all ranch
es and owners of ranch property
inevitably must face.
“Under these conditions, to ig
nore any fire—be it in grain-field
or pasture, backyard, beside the
road, or in forests—is to invite
disaster. Every fire — no matter
how small—is a potential catas
trophe; each one the start of a
possible holocaust, which may be
avoided only as every man, wo
man, and child realizes the dan
ger and takes prompt and im
mediate action.”
OMIT DIVIDEND
NEW YORK, Sept., 24, (^—Di
rectors of the Anaconda Copper
Co., omitted their quarterly divid
end of 37 and one-half cents on
each share “because of the lack in
demand of metals from the com
pany and the extremely low prices
prevailing.” The company has
been operating about 40 percent
normal
Now is the time to look over old
packs and have new bottoms put
on for winter.

BILL JONES j
NEEDS MODE INCOME j
- i
I
Winter is approaching and the ‘
children’s school expense will be!
higher this year than last. Bill
looks forward to less income in
the regular way. Many industries
have shifted to the “zigzag” plan
for their employees in an effort
to help everyone thru the winter.
This means that each employee
will have about half as much in
come. Prices of clothing and food
have come down some, but not in
keeping with the “zigzag” income.
There will be just as much coal to 1
buy and rent to pay. Bill must |
have more money than he can i
expect from his usual sources, j
He has some money in the sav- ■
ings bank drawing 3 per cent in
terest. While it is true that money [
was put there for a “rainy day”
it isn’t bringing him any income
worth mentioning; and $20 or $40
or even $100 of that wouldn’t go
very far on a “rainy day.” He:
needs more money coming in.
Bill Jones is the average Amer
ican. He knows that many a man
in exactly his financial condition
has invested part of his money j
and has made enough return toj!
give him the added income he
needed. But Bill knows there is i
some speculation with every in
vestment, no matter what it is or
how good it sounds.
He doesn’t know whether he j
should take any chances on either'
his savings account or his present j
income. Of course his savings ac- 1
count is not absolutely safe; he!
realizes more money has been lost |
by depositors thru bank failures
during the last 10 years than
thru any single line of investment
other than the stock market crash
in 1929. Being a true American
and realizing that “nothing risked,
nothing gained,” he likes to take
a chance. Bill is a cautious fel
low and wants to speculate, but
he doesn’t want to lose his money.
So he tosses aside all the “wild
eyed” promises and impractical
guarantees that flood the mails
and seeks out a chance to specu- \
late with the safety of a flowing
oil well to fall back on if the
well he bets on turns out to be
dry. If the new well comes in
big, Bill should make a profit j
[of 10 times his investment. If
[he doesn’t he still has his money
where it should pay him dividends,
over a period of years, twenty r
times larger than the savings (
bank interest. And he has the j
speculative chance of making a j
| real fortune if the new well comes ;
'in good. He wants to speculate j
with his “fingers crossed,’ as it j
were, and that is exactly what [
he does when he accepts our spe- j
cial Pool offer, and shares in one j
: gusher while we drill for another.
Write us for full information,
but better still—mail us $20, $100, j
or even $200, and share in our i
next dividend. If you are like
Bill Jones, we might help you.
