Mellow watched a man smoke

A frightful thing to do, but all right
for columnists. And then I did
something else: I became envious.
For here was a man for whom with
only a pipe the world was some
thing easy and quiet to live in. For
minutes he gazed serenely only pas
sively interested in the rush of traf-
fic by him. He lifted his glasses
and rubbed his naked eyes. Once a
smile broke over his face-outward
sign of a pleasant inward thot.
His was only a meagre conscious
ness Of what went on round about.
The air and the scene were free.

long practice at the affair. A man
mild and mellow was he-as mild
and mellow as the clouds Of smoke
that curled through his whitening
mustache. :. I'm going right home
and dust mine off. I've talked my
self into smoking one. :.

March Real estate viii take
the lead in a decided business re-
covery early this year. according
to Joseph W. Catherine. president
of the National Association of
Real Estate Boards, speaking in
West Palm Beach to realtors and
winter visitors from all portions
of the nation.
Money is backing up in the
United States for investment in
real estate, Catherine said.

more than five percent the coun-

catch some of the enthusiasm you
have here in Florida.
Two most important undeEtak-

ganization president said. are the
establishment of a management
institute and of an appraisal in

those two operations with rela-

Herbert u. Nelson, executive
vice president of the national
board, gave three reasons why he
believes real estate is in better
/ position to advance than at any
time for many years. Real estate
I debt has been decreased generally
until Il amounts to only 25 per
cent of its value, he said Under
the new mortgage system provid-
ed by the Federal Housing act.

Taxes on real estate. he said. have
been reduced on an average Of
20 percent in the last 10 years.
while eleven states have enacted
tax limitation laws and twenty
one others now have similar
codes under consideration.
with these factors in favor Of
real estate development. there is
nothing that can hold US back cx-

of abuse which were poured upon it and its
members. But if peace is to be achieved,
there must be evidence of a sincere desire
for it on both sides.
Chairman Lewis put this question of sin
cerity to a test by his offer to resign. But
the response to this offer from the other side
has been far from heartening.
The forthcoming convention of the CLIO,
however, so far from being an obstacle in
the path of unity, is likely to be a most effec-
tive step in that direction.
For once it is c~onclusively established that
the CIO is a firmly grounded movement with
the organized power as well as the right to
protect the interests of its affiliated unions,
the AFL leaders will have to forget their
foolish hopes of dividing and destroying the
new movement.
And once they are ready to recognize
established facts, and to deal sincerely and
on a basis of equality with the Clio, they can
be sure that neither the CIO nor its leaders
will place any obstacle in the way of that
genuine labor unity which has always been
their aim-The Clio NewS.

Why Should We Vote For
Referendum 40?

The trade union movement of Montana,
through its individual unions, city central
councils, and the State Federation of Labor,
have gone on record for the passage of Ref
erendum 40. This is a proposition passed
at the last session of the Legislature, re-
ferring to the people whether or not the
sale of liquor at retail shall continue as at
present, or whether it shall be handled ex-
clusively by the State Liquor Stores.
1t was brought out at the convention of
the Montana Federation of Labor held at
Missoula in June, that the retail sale of
liquor provides employment for at least 5000
people in Montana and that the system as
now set up provides a payroll of $7,500,000
annually, but it is not only a matter of nov
many people are employed, nor the extent
of the total payroll. Other things that have
been set up under the present system would
be seriously affected if changes were made
at the present time.
From the time the present system of
operation was set up until September LIST,
of this year, the general fund of the state
of Montana has received over 2 million dol
lars in liquor profits, while beer license and
taxes have provided another two and a quar-
ter million. The public welfare fund has
been enriched to the extent Of 1852, 900, water
conservation 70 million; the teachers fund
has been provided with $84, 1000, and the pub
lie school general fund $780, 900. Not all Of
this revenue, Of course, would be eliminated,
even if No. 40 wasn't passed, but neverthe-
less, the public schools general fund was pro-
vided with 1852, 900, the public welfare fund
with 100000 and the general fund with
$500, 900, which came directly from the sale
Of liquor at retail as it is now constituted,
and as referendum 40 is designed to continue.
The experiences of the operations of the
18th amendment caused quite a complete
somersault in the conception of morality for
merly smugly enjoyed by numerous moral
lists. Even the prim and prudish now must
acknowledge that prohibition, especially as
it was run before its repeal, was not a solu-
ton of the liquor problems. We saw gang
ster outfits, Capone's, murderers and fragrant
violations of the law. No one wants those
conditions to return. The passage of Ref
erendum 40 is a guarantee against such a
condition.
