Mountain group. is their own sworn statement of actual legitimate cost and actual legitimate investment" in the Flathead project. known as the prc-liccnse cost, as submitted to the power commission. The gov ernment has the privilege of buy ing back the power development when the 5o-ycar lease is up and the higher the costs which it ap- proves as legitimate the more il will have 10 pay and the higher the rates on power and light con- sumers in the meantime.
 The Rocky Mountain people charged up so many. remarkable items that Chief Accountant Will liam V. King of the power commiS- sion decided 10 squeeze out $4l.0UO. He was oVerrulcd by former cXccu- tive secretary o. C. Merrill, who has since taken a job in which his large salary is paid by the power interests. The power company charged up about $14O,0OO and the opposition contends that the legiti- mate cost would not exceed S25,000.
 Among the hundreds of items charged up were donationssto an Indian powwow, churches, a state fair, Jews" Y. M. C. A., K. of C., Boy Scouts a handball club and q basket party. About $40,000 was charged for salaries of. important Montana Power officials and $39. .0OO for flood damages far from the power site. Money was also paid to men who attempted to induce the Indians to favor the Rocky Mountain bid and get another law yer. Consumers are also expected to stand "cntertainment" items.
 Sees a Bad Precedent
 Solicitor Charles A. Russell of the commission, who joined with King in protesting this strange bill, held in an opinion that if it were approved tax payers everywhere would be soaked for all kinds of expenses and donations and that the precedent would "open the door to fraud, deception and illegal transactions against the public in terest."
 He referred 10 many claims as ridiculous, propostorous and ille- gal" The Federal Water Power act says the pro-liccnse cost Of capi- talization shall be limited 10 tho actual cost of surveying the site and laying plans for development.
 1t is this phase which Schall wants investigated. The Wheeler faction regards the facts as powerful weapon against the power trust" and contends that it will be impossible for the govern ment to let it have the I'lathcad.

without reinsurance. He contends that
the state has paid insurance compan-
les huge sums in premiums and has
received little benefit from the REIN
surance carried. Had the reinsurance
system never been adopted. he con-
tends, the state fund would be ape
proximately $4O0, 900 richer as the re-
suit of a favorable loss experience
during the last ten years.
Although the reinsurance will be
obtained at a reduced rate If Olsncss's
plan works out and the courts do not
interfere. the tax districts may not
Immediately receive the benefit. The
state fund now charges the same rate
as private insurance companies and
adds the difference between income
and losses paid to its surplus. Olsncss
has fixed $1,000. 900 as the goal for
this surplus. which passed the million
mark more than a year ago. When It
reaches that figure, he told the legis-
lature last winter, he expects the in
tcrcst from the surplus to pay all
losses. and insurance on all public
buildings would be carried without the
payment of premiums.
His new plan. he says. will add from
$4,000 to $4,000 to the fund each
year.
