TEN HOSPITALS
UNDER SCRUTINY
ON TAX STATUS
Group Health Study Is
Started by Seal

Corporation Counsel Elwood Seal
undertook today a study of the
status of ten local hospitals as tax
exempt institutions in the light
of their alleged refusal to furnish
facilities for physicians affiliated
with Group Health Association,
Inc.
Commissioner Melvin C. Hazen
ordered the investigation yeSter-
day after he and Tax Assessor
Fred Allen received written de-
mand that the hospitals be stricken
from the tax-free list.
NOT PURELY CHARITY"
D. N. Shoemaker, Of $500 East
ern Ave. N. E., who signed the
letter, asked for an opinion by
Seal on Garfield, Sibley, Provi-
dence, Georgetown, Emergency,
Casualty, Columbia, Episcopal, Ho-
meopathic and George Washing
ton Hospitals.
He charged the hospitals he
enumerated are not institutions
of purely public charity, since
they discriminate unreasonably
against persons organized to OBJ
tain adequate medical care"
Furthermore, Shoemaker argued,
these hospitals are not conducted
without charge, profit or income
since they do make charges to pa
tients and receive income if not
profit.

lature. This field Of the law, COM
bined with world war service and
wide general practice on behalf of
farmers and working men living in
the central part of the state, pro
vided an exceptional foundation, at
torneys point out, for the heavy
work which fell to him in the Su-
preme Court during the last few
years.
During this period the Montana
bench was called upon to pass upon
many new and unprecedented ques-
tons of law, involving widespread
changes, and, for the first time
reaching far beyond the "old school,
Of legal decisions. In writing an
unusual number Of opinions and on
a wide variety of questions, many
new to courts throughout the coun-
try, Judge Anderson's work was
watched with keen interest, not only
in Montana but residents of other
states as well. Special recognition
was accorded Judge Anderson in
that many Of these opinions were
published in the American Law Re-
ports, which include only the out
standing opinions of the Supreme
Court of the United States, the U. S.
Court of Appeals and the supreme
courts of the 48 states.

Paul Smith fav0rS
Department OF Labor

Your paper Of May IL, 1898, was
handed TO me by one of the labor
representatives in the state who re-
quested me to write to you for the
purpose of making correction, if you
so desire, Of an error which occurred
in your paper pertaining to me.
On page 4 under title of Lewis
and Clark County, Senator Paul w.
Smith" you have me as voting
against House Bill 18 which per-
tanned to creating a separate depart
ment of labor and industrial rela-
tons in Montana. If you will look
on Page 222 of the Senate Journal
of the 18th Session under the Sena-
tors, you will see that l always sup
ported House Bill No. Is. l realize
that it is only an error and have no
intention whatsoever of criticizing,
but this labor representative told me
to tell you that in 1885 in the House
of Representatives when a similar
bill was on the floor of the House
that l not only supported the bill but
spoke on behalf of the bill. He also
told me to tell you that in the last
session of the Legislature that twice
from the floor of the Senate l sup
ported this measure.
| have always been in favor of a
separate department of industrial
relations and have always supported
the measure very strongly for the
reason that l believe that a separate
department of this kind with author
ity to act on labor matters will do a
great deal in solving the many in
tricate problems of labor and capt.
tai in Montana. I have always been
a firm believer in organized labor
and have been in favor of collective
bargaining and have always contend
ed that if there was a separate de-
partment of labor in Montana and
the labor unions would present their
problems to department of labor
that a better and a more effective
legislative program based upon
sound principles, could be formu-
lated instead of having separate and
individual bills which are sponsored
by employees in different businesses
and which do not help labor as a
whole. PAUL w. SMITH.

5P0RTSMEN May AID
IN KEEPING TROUT
OUT OF THE bitches

HELENA. - Sportsmen of Mon
tana may aid the State Game and
Fish Commission in its efforts to
preserve hundreds of thousands of
trout from death in irrigation
bitches and fields, State Game War
den James A. Weaver announced
today. Under a special license is
sued by the department, sportsmen
may contribute to a state fund that
eventually will place screens over
the intakes of all irrigation and
reclamation projects in the state.
While the regular 1888 hunting
and fishing license went on sale over
the state last week, the state COM
mission also announced the plan of
putting out special "Sportsman's
license" to cost S. each. The regu-
lar hunting and fishing licenses cost
81 and the big game license costs 81.
The SIS license includes both and pro-
vides So for a fund to build screens.
Due to the efforts of Senator B.
K. Wheeler an appropriation of
$4,000 for fish screens has been in
cluded in the regular appropriation
bill of Congress this year, John w.
Schofield, Superintendent of Hatch
cries, has announced. To this $4,000
will be added funds from the special
licenses. Eventually, Warden Wea-
yer believes, screens will be placed
on all bitches leading from trout
streams, construction to start on
those streams where the trout loss
is the heaviest.
Governor Roy E. Ayers purchased
No. l of the special Sportsman's Ii
censes and clubs throughout the
state will be asked to make a special
effort to sell the licenses.

Welfare Board 10
Sponsor Only Worth
While WpA PrOjeds

NATURALIZATION of the State
Welfare Board in outlining a policy
to guide sponsorship Of WPA prof
ects assures the greatest returns
from relief labor and relief funds
spent for this purpose, Governor
Roy E. Ayers announced today.
At its regular meeting last week
the board decided as a policy that
only such projects as have a perma-
nent value to the state of Montana
will be sponsored by the board with
Welfare Department funds. The an
nouncement by the governor was in
reply to letters and kilograms seek
ing information as to the boards
policy in sponsoring WPA projects.
Included in the institutions that
will be benefited by state sponsor
ship of WPA projects are the state
hospital at Warm Springs, the Tu-
berculosis Hospital at Galen, the
various schools for children, and
some of the units of the Greater
University of Montana system.
The supreme court recently held
the board has discretionary power
in the matter and applications for
local projects began to pour into the
board at a rate that would soon ex-
haust all funds if they were granted.
The new policy of the board insures
general benefit to the state from
Welfare funds spent as WPA spon-
sorship, instead of a few localities
receiving favored projects and the
great remainder of the states com
munities being frozen out.

PUT WPA SIGNS ON
GROCERY STORES

NCOntlnued from Page p
signs on their gates. Wouldn't it
have been just as much sense and
just as reasonable to put signs on
the gates SO the public could see
who got the money for these old
sheep and cattle as it is now for
them to put up WPA signs on every
job where the labor men work? And
as for the business man, how would
they like to have a sign in their
window showing the tourist and the
public that the groceries they sell
are being bought by these WPA
workers. Here you see again, where
dictatorship starts from. The bust
ness men say that dictatorship comes
from the President. 1t doesn't, it
starts from the business men and
the lawyers who tell the labor peo-
pie who r getting the WPA check
what he must buy, they say he is
not to buy a glass of beer or a pint
OF Whiskey Or should he buy a home
out OF his skimp earnings. No, you
business men will not cooperate with
the laboring people. Then you think
he ought to come in and spend his
check with you but still when the
labor man comes to you for a little
favor where it benefits you later on
no, you cannot comply with him.
Why, because you seem to think that
if you do it is going to help this
man out of the roots.
