GOVERNOR FORD AT HELM
Our governor has spoken. The white
hope of the electorate has entered the
arena and is stripped for the fray.
May he be neither groggy nor dazed
when the sponge goes up. He has an
opportunity for service he should not
fail to grasp and the words of his mes
sage indicate he will not be found
mendations few will find fault and
his distractions are dedicated to high
purpose and honest statecraft. With
an assembly disciplined in the ideals
of democratic government Montana
should be headed for a new order and
a better era.
The message notes that wise counsel
should be taken for the future of high
way construction and maintenance.
The curtailment of federal aid and
government planning for defense high
ways make this imperative. The gov
ernor could have appropriately called
to the attention of the legislature the
indubiatble fact that producer roads
have been sadly neglected in the dis
tribution of federal and gas tax funds.
Food production is not only Montana's
greatest industry but the nations first
lime of defense and farm to market
roads are calling for their share Of
highway revenues. When it becomes
the privilege of the governor to re-
constitute the highway commission he
should place upon it's membership an
unhesitating friend of rural road de-
velopment. It will be long-delayed
justice.
The message makes structures upon
the fish and game administration and
recommends the statutes be rewritten.
1t is regrettable a similar recommen-
dation was not made in regard to the
Montana grass conservation act, the
administration of which has been
major racket under Mr.. Ford's predec-
essor Under the pretense of con
servation'' small stockmen have been
barred from ranges to which they
have an indisputable priority and have
been offered a bride of small acreage
to induce them to sign contract
pledging themselves never to seek GER
tain sections desired by big stockmen.
In the same contract directors were
asked to subscribe to falsehoOd,
namely: "This is all the range we
need at the present time" This is
but one item in a volume of duplicity
and misfeasance the grass commits
sion must face upon a day of reckon
ing. Within the past few years, and
at the same time small operators were
being dispossessed right and left,
Minneapolis corporation with Mon
tana wise built up vast range north
of Zurich in Blaine county. This en-
terprise many people think should be
investigated by a legislative commit
tee to allay suspicion which is vocif-
erous and general. The thing that
evokes criticism is the fact that the
manager for the Minneapolis corpora
ton is a member of and acting sec
rotary for the Montana Grass Conser-
walton Commission.

A. C. M. SELLS AMERICA AND

Much red batting by the A. G. M. Co.
est people in this state to wonder what
is behind the companys attempt to be-
smirch all honest law-abiding and
God-fearing citizens. The labor move
ment of this nation has too many in
telligent members to ever fall for COM

big business men you will find chisel-
ers who are would-be dictators and
if given a chance they would out

poration's officials using every dis
honest means in their power-bribery,
control the legislature in Montana.
Free drinks to legislators are just as
much a violation of the corrupt prac-
tice act as vote-buying, and both I'M
dermine real democracy and both I'M
dermine and undersell American insti-
tutions They control the press of
the state and keep facts away from
the citizens of this state and then turn
around and lie about the desires of
the rank and file of Montana citizens.
Not content with exploiting the
workers, they keap further insults
upon the leaders of labor by question
ing their patriotism. The workers of
this state have never been slackers in
time of need, and the workers will
never sell America short as the big
