Every one knows these rates
cannot be repee' ID after the war
lis over. This is not war tax bill,
but a permanent one.
IL will be necessary 10 maintain
some such scale TO carry the huge
war debt which will be $l30.000, =
100000, at the end of the next
fiscal year and perhaps two or
three times that much by the time
the war is over
Most peculiar aspect OF the Situa-
tion is that the Go and other
labor groups do not think these
corporation taxes are high enough,
although their wages must come
from corporation income. They can
only get wage increases from in
creased corporate earnings.

WASHINGTON. July Is. - n
sounded a little like the Reichstag
when the House ways and means
committee unanimously decided on
the strongest of gag rules for con-
sideration of the tremendous new
tax bill.
1t meant that these terrific taxes
were, in effect levied by Is men,
that the representatives of the
people in the House must either
take their handlwork as a whole
or reject it. No changes could be
made. Only three days of useless
discussion was possible.
But even the rip-snorting ultra
new dealer Representative Knute
Hill of Washington voted for such
strenuous restriction on this
occasion for the first time in his
life

LESS FEEDER
CATTLE This
YEAR Than 1871

Montana had 10000 head of cattle
being fattened for market on Decem-
Der 1 compared with 10000 head on
feed last year, according to a report
issued by the U. S. Department of
Agriculture through the office of the
agricultural statistician. Most of
these cattle are being fattened on
beet pulp and other concentrates in
the sugar beet areas although a con-
siderable number as usual are being
fattened on hay in the Big Hole Basin
area of southwestern Montana.
Stocker and feeder cattle moved
into the Corn Belt States in record
volume during November, at the high
est level of prices in at least % years.
The total for the months of July
through November this year was well
above that for the corresponding pc
riod in 1871, but somewhat below the
totals for 1889 and 1910.
Reports from the western states in
dictate that cattle feeding will be on
reduced scale in all of these states
except in California, where some in
crease is reported, and in Arizona,
where there is little change. The
largest relative decreases are reported
for Idaho, Utah and Oregon. In Colo
RADIO most of the reduction In feeding
is in northern Colorado. Some in
crease in cattle feeding is expected
in Texas, where relatively large num-
bers of cattle are being fattened on
wheat pastures, with little change in
Oklahoma. Shipments of feeder cat
tie into the Lancaster, Pennsylvania,
feeding district this fall were larger
than year ago.
The movement of feeder cattle into
the corn belt and into western feeding
areas has been later than usual this
year. This delayed movement re-
suited from several conditions. The
generally good range conditions and
advancing prices tended to hold back
the movement of western grass cattle,
harvesting of the large corn crop and
of sugar beets was slowed up by labor
shortages, and the confused price sit
uation tended to make many feeders
hesitate about buying high priced
feeder cattle. But, as fat cattle prices
continued to advance, feeders appar-
emily became more confident Late in
the season a strong demand developed
for cattle needed to utilize the larger
supplies of hay and roughage and,
probably, for grain finishing later
Records for four leading markets
show that about the same percentages
of steers in weight groups over 500
pounds were bought during the July
to November period this year as last,
but that there was a larger percent
age of 700 to 500 pound steers and
a smaller percentage in the 500 to 700
pound group. The percentage of
feeder calves is also smaller this year.

INDUSTRIAL ACCID. BOARD
MAKES IMPORTANT RULING

Large employers in Montana must
ing workmen's compensation protec-
ton for the employees of sub-contrac-
tors engaged in carrying out the bust
ness of the principal employer, ac-
cording to ruling of the Industrial
Accident Board which is made in the
case of June Buckner a widow and
her young child against the Independ-
|ent Refining Company of Laurel and
its insurance carrier. The board, in
an opinion written by ]. Burke Glenn
since the enactment of the Workmen's
Compensation Law interprets section
2901 of the Revised Codes which deals
with the matter.
James Buckner. a truck driver, en-
ployed by a contractor, E. e. John,
was killed February 9th, 1941 while
delivering fuel oil sold by the hide
pendent Refining Company to the city
of Circle. He left surviving a wife
and child and claim for compensation
was made but payment was resisted
blythe company carrying the compen-
sation insurance for the refining COM
pany upon the ground that e. e. John
was an Independent contractor and be-
was not responsible for the payment
of compensation.
The Industrial Accident Board takes
a contrary view, in its decision, hold
ing that John was not an "independ-
ent" contractor but was a contractor
fitting exactly the pattern outlined by
the section of law in question.
The board in its conclusions has
the following to say regarding the
of the law; "a ruling up
holding the contention of the insur
ance carrier in this case would be a
cold blooded approval of a method de-
benefits of the Workmen's Compensa-
ton Act and would make it possible
for other employers, if they were so
inclined, to use the same method and
thus make it impossible for innocent
who are injured, to obtain
and impossible for the
widows and children of those killed
to obtain compensation. The work
mems compensation law, while weak
in many places, wisely anticipated
Just such a situation as is presented
N this case, and Section 2901 was
written to protect the innocent work
men of a contractor doing work for
/ principal employer. That section
provides that when an employer pro-
The people's voice. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1939-1969, 1942-12-25

cures any work to be done by con-
tractor, other than an Independent
contractor, and the work so procured
to be done is part or process in the
trade or business of such employer,
then such employer shall be liable to
pay all compensation under the law
to the same extent as if the work
were done direct for the principal
by the worker. The facts in this case
fit squarely the provisions of Section
2901, Revised Codes of Montana. The
employer, Independent Refining COM
pany procured work to be done for
it by a contractor and the work so
procured to be done was a part of
the trade and business of the indie
pendent Refining company, and an
employee of that contractor was killed
in the course of his employment and
the death arose out of his employ
ment If the insurance carrier in this
case is not liable to pay compensation
the employers of Montana can reduce
their workmen's compensation premi
ums to a minimum by sub-Ietting the
work in their businesses to any Tom,
Dick &c Harry, who in turn employ
workmen to carry out the business
necessary to be done without pro-
tecting them with workmen's com
pensation.
Section 2901 was designed to pro-
tect June Buckner and her child. If

Ford for the opportunity he gave me

dianapolis, Indiana, when he APP

National Conference on Legislation
One hundred and thirty-five dele
gates from 80 states and Alaska at
TENDED the ninth annual conference on
labor legislation at indianapolis, No
labor commissioners, representatives
of organized labor and governors rep
resentatives. The sessions were ex-
tremely interesting and we're espe-
cially of value to administrators of la
Dor laws. A determination to pre-
serve labor and social legislation was
evident, according to the program of
action adopted by the conference, and
the discussion following the reading
OF the program.
The primary purpose of the confer
ence was to consider labor standards
in relation to the fullest utilization
of manpower in war production; also
according to the program, "The rec
ommendatioHs which it makes are
with a view to accelerating and
strengthening the war effort"
The lack of a sound basic labor
program was a primary factor in
waste of manpower and production
losses, caused by high accident rates,
absenteeism, occupational disease and
labor turnover, according to the pro-
gram of the conference. 1t was EN-
phasized that "a high level of war
production can best be attained and
sustained by adhering to existing la
Dor standards and by extending them
to groups not now covered; provided,
that where an investigation by the
state labor department establishes
that an emergency need exists modi
fication of specific standards may be
made on a temporary basis for war
In this connection, sin
gleness of authority was stressed, to
avoid confusion caused by conflicting
and participation, by state
and federal labor departments.

showed that when put under water
for three hours, instead of 1920 meg
ohms the resistance of the wire had
dropped to less than SO megohms, that
it was poorly impregnated; that the
braid had insufficient mechanical
strength; the rubber insulation crack
ed when bent and that the impregna-
ton compound separated from the
braid
| 1t was stated by Tom G. Clark chief
of the justice department war fraud
unit that the company had manufac-
tured about $6,000,0OO worth of the
wire for the government and that now
the army had issued orders that the
communications material be used only
for maneuvers and not be delivered
to combat areas.
Another charge in the indictment
according to the attorney general was
that ''the defendants removed inspec
ton labels from tested and approved
wire and cable and place them ON
INFESTED material" and that through
and sold to the government large
quantities of wire and cable which
never were subject to test and which
were in fact inferior and detective"
In addition to the company the fol
lowing individuals were named as de-
PENDANTS in the Indictment: Thor S.
Johnson, general manager of all Ana
conda mills; Frank E. Hart, manager
of the Marion division of the Ana
conda; Don R. Carpenter, superintend
ent of the Marion tplant Chalmer
Bishop, chief company inspector at
Marion and the assistant chief COM
pany inspector there, Frank Kunkle.
The company is controlled by the
Anaconda Copper Mining Company ac-
cording to Standard Corporation Rec
ords, the ACM owning 6S61 per cent
of the Anaconda Wire and Cable Com
pany's outstanding capital stock.
Maximum penalties for defrauding
the government under the law are
for two years or $780,
900 fine or both; and for presenting
false claims, Imprisonment for 10
years or a $4,000 fine or both on each
count in the indictment if convicted.
There are eight counts in the indict-
ment returned against the company

der Section of Article XIX of our

| XIX contrary to the view of the ma
jority is self-executing; that to hold
as the majority has as to this latter
point is to destroy by piecemeal our
Constitution without even any justifi-
cation of public need, changed condi-
tions or to relieve injustice but in
stead to permit the legislature to au-
thorize by repeal of Section 11149 and
other sections, lotteries and every
other scheme such as the one here in
question which are basically lotteries
or gift enterprises"
Angstman Agrees
Associate Justice Angstman con-
Cured in the dissenting opinion of
Associate Justice Erickson and added
the following:
The majority opinion correctly
points out that the only noteworthy
difference between this case and the
Dussault case, 10 Mont AL, 101 Pac.
(2d) 1865, is that here it was stipu-

to purchase the gift came from the
rental of the store and office proper
ties, and not from the sale of admis-
sion tickets. This is a distinction
without a difference. If the rental
goes to purchase the gift then the
proceeds from the sale of admission
tickets must be used to discharge OBJ
legations that otherwise would be paid
from the rental proceeds. Since this
case is no different in fact or sub
stance from the Dussault case, it
should be ruled by that case and the
judgment here reversed.
The ultimate purpose and aim of
the plan here involved is exactly the
same as that in the Dussault case,
