Elliott Goes to Hire Instructors for State Colleges
Chancellor Edward C. Elliott left for Chicago to recruit instructors to fill 12 vacancies created by resignations in Montana state institutions. Salaries offered elsewhere often exceed Montana pay, with many teachers earning 2000 annually receiving offers of 2500 to 3000. Overwork and limited vacations also force resignations. Elliott aims to hire from the middle western field to restore staffing.

Walsh Responds To Editor Over Northern Enlistment Claim
Senator T J Walsh rebuts a northern Montana editor's charge that southern chairmanships and wartime policy favor the south. He argues seniority governs committee heads, defends southern representation, and notes enlistment patterns amid war, addressing cotton and wool price questions and northern patriotism. He cites committee names and ends with local notices about Jack Porter and real estate purchases.
