Two Important Measures
For Voters To Consider

Hundreds of prominent citizens Of
Montana who realize the seriousness Of
the situation which confronts the state
have enlisted in the work OF get
ting the facts regarding referendum
measures SO and "a to the people, ac-
cording to John Dexter, manager Of
the state campaign Of information for
these measures.
Following his visit to nearly every
county in the state, he reports very
favorable attitude toward the measures
on the part Of those who know the con-
diions. Comparatively few people rea-
lie that the special levy voted in 1920
for the support Of educational institu-
tons expires this year, and that ref
erendum "a will renew that support, he
explains.
At the same time, few know Of the
conditions Of over-crowding that exist
at such institutions as the state prison,
state hospital, state tuberculosis SAM
tarium, state orphans home, state in
dustrial school and other institutions
in Montana
Referendum 80 is for a S3,000,0 900
bond issue for buildings and equipment
to remedy the over-crowding at state
institutions, and referendum "a is for
a special levy for the support Of edu-
cational institutions to replace the levy
which expires, the manager explains.
The cost will be comparatively little,
even if the legislature should appropri-
ate the full amounts authorized by the
measures, he states. To the average
taxpayer 1t would be little more than
the cost Of tank of gasoline
He reports that, in every county
visited, prominent citizens have vol
unteered their services in getting the
information about the measures 10 the
people. These citizens, he says, realize
that the measures will assure the con-
tinued operation of the states educa-
tional institutions and the remedying
of unsatisfactory conditions at other IN

Politically
Speaking
(By United Press)

The curtain has been raised on the
second act-the pre-convention activ-
ity-of Montana's big political drama,
the senatorial campaign.
Like most second acts, the present
activity, scattered and more or less
local in scope but statewide in aspect,
leads to the more important acts to
follow.
Reorganization of party machinery
has speeded up throughout the state,
with more than score OF county CEN
trail committee meetings already held,
and as many more scheduled for the
immediate future.
Meanwhile, the second act! Speaking
at Great Falls, H. w. Evans, imperial
wizard of the Ku Klux Khan and pres
emily vanguard in the campaign
against the reelection of Montana
veteran democratic leader, Senator 7.
j. Walsh, played the latter's stand on
the world court.
Il am not opposed to Walsh be-
cause he is a democrat Evans said
"but solely because he favors the
world court
ut would not take more than min
ute to make up my mind whom to
vote for were ! casting my ballot in
this state"
But an interested democratic editor
asked. What kind OF a state would
this state be if everyone were just
like me-or for that matter, Evans?''
And he predicted campaign which
would become historic.
Neither Senator Walsh nor Justice
Galen seem to be taking a very active
interest in the campaign at this time
although in the councils of both parties
there have been several surveys of the
others possibilities and estimates as
to strength.
Since the brief statement made after
his nomination, Justice Galen has sale
nothing for publication, maintaining
silence after his conference with Sen
ator Frederick Steiwer, Oregon, vice
chairman of the republican congress
sional campaign committee.
Walsh, who has retired for shori
rest to his summer home in the Gla-
cier Park region, has made no public
utterance since his radio address a
Billings on the London naval treaty.
Worthy Of mention, although hi:
campaign is expected to cut little from
the interest and concentration of forces
in the Galen- Walsh race, is John Nc.
Kay.
Mckay, one time non-partisan league
senator from Sanders county, has ac-
cepted the socialistic nomination foi

Montana From The Air
(By United Press


BUTTE-(UP.)-Under provisions
OF the McNary- Watres bill, operation
OF the air mail system in Montana last
week by National Parks Anyways en-
tered new era with a new and ap-
proved system of payment.
Instead of receiving a poundage rate
for mail carried, National Parks Air
ways hereafter will be paid on the ba-
sis of mileage and certain determining
factors, peculiar to the route between
Salt Lake City and Great Falls.
THE new bill becomes operative at
a time when the fate of commercial
aviation was almost in the balance"
said Alfred Frank, National Parks
president
THE old system of pay for carrying
the mails was manifestly inequitable,
but it must be born in mind that these
rates originated during the early days
of commercial aviation and the over
enthusiasm of some of the bidders for
airmail contracts was responsible for
the wide variance in rates." he said.
THE new system really applies the
railway mail system to the airmail,
the post office department contracting
for definite amount of space in our
planes and paying on mileage basis To
this base pay is added uniform num-
Der of cents for various conditions en-
countered on the route, which make
operations more costly"
