nessmen and all others interested.
Farm organizations, service clubs,
women's organizations and other
groups having an interest in agricul-
tural production and its attendant
problems are invited to participate in
the Montana observance of Plant For

Most observances will perhaps be
county, community or club gather
ings," McKenna believes, where
groups can meet and discuss farm
problems. Right now the difficulties
that threaten to hamper our drive for

vide opportunities for serious discus
sion and action on such pertinent
jobs as securing farm labor, co-opera-
tive use of farm machinery, collection
of scrap iron and repair of farm ma
chinery. The week is intended to

for loans or for outright sale to the
Reconstruction Finance Corporation
would be optional with the dealer,
while the Reconstruction Finance Cor
poration would be obliged to comply
with a dealers request for loan or
the purchase of his frozen stocks.
Reconstruction Finance Corporation
salas and loans would be made on
the basis of the dealers prime cost
plus a reasonable handling charge for
warehousing and servicing.
The senator cited the January LIST
automobiles and trucks in the hands
of automobile and truck dealers. He
said that the government rationing
authority had up to the present date
provided for release of only small
quantity of automobiles, and that the
new passenger car rationing plan has
been postponed to March End, with
no plan as yet having been announced
for the rationing of trucks.
The senator said: Except for re-
lease of a few automobiles since jan
upary 1st and the possibility that the
government itself will require less
than 10000 cars from present stocks,
this will leave upwards of 100000 new
automobiles and trucks, which may be
frozen in automobile and truck deal
ers' hands for a period of many
months. During this period of ration
ing of cars, the dealers will have to
pay warehouse rent, insurance and
other costs of maintaining their auto
mobile inventories in first-class con-
dition. 1t is unfair to ask these deal
ers to bear the sole burden of all
this investment and expense.
ut is quite evident" said the SEN
ator, "that our government will be
compelled to ration many articles and
commodities during the war period.
1t is therefore only right and just that
the government make substantial pro-
visions for alleviating the burden of
carrying these frozen stocks by the
dealers. This bill which our commit
tee is recommending" to the congress
is the result of many conferences with
automobile dealers and government
rationing authorities, as well as of
Independent studies made by mem
bers of the committee. 1t does not,
however, exclusively apply to auto
mobile dealers, but is made broad
enough to provide for the relief of all
dealers in any article or commodity
rationed under the authority of the
United States"

War Production Board, and urged
Nelson to give them hearing on the
projects.
| Johnson and Christensen did not
get very far in talking to Nelson's
subordinates, to whom Nelson re-
ferred them. One of the subordinates,
F. M. Moffat, Jr. is a director of
chemical division Of Nelson's organi-
cation. He is the key man in passing
on this project. Moffat's industrial
experience has been associated with
the friends of Ethyl Corporation and
Norris has not hesitated to suggest
to Nelson that one with Moffat's
training should not be a judge in the
present controversy. When Johnson
and Christensen reported their failure
at WPB, Norris demanded a hearing
for Johnson and Christensen. "We
appreciated that when we undertook
in direct opposition to some of the
most powerful financial influences in
the United States" Norris told Mel
son. He then added that by adding
1920 of alcohol to gasoline, they would
make tetra ethyl lead unnecessary"
81 understand that chemical is con-
trolled by General Motors and the
Standard Oil Company" Norris added.
II understand the corporation con-
trolling this has made $14,000,000
profit during the last year with but
very little investment" He added
that corporations which wanted to use
ethyl gas" were compelled to submit
to unreasonable and l think, unlaw-
full conditions" Norris asserted that
Nelson and his subordinates had not
heard the last of this controversy and
that he would not be satisfied at all
with Moffat's decision.
Norris was just as enthusiastic
about having the plants owned and
operated by co-operatives as he was
about petting power alcohol into pro-
duction. He wants the experiment
given fair trial and he says coop
erative management and the elimina-
ton of the profit motive are the best
safeguards to insure fair trial

WPA EFFICIENCY CUTS
FEEDING COST IN half

DETROIT OPP = The hot-lunch
provision for needy Detroit school
children, hitherto a farce with only
765 fed at 13c per meal, is being rev.
olutionized with the help of the WPA
and the Surplus Marketing Admins
tration of the federal government.
The board of education voted I'M
animously February "a to abandon its
costly little efforts and to offer hot
lunch to all needy children in the
schools. The cost will be only &c per
meal instead of the II to lac at pres
ent prevailing.
The Michigan social welfare depart
ment says there are 1900 children
among families on the welfare rolls.
Detroit has been far behind other
Michigan communities in getting aid
for feeding children who need the
meals.
The CLIO women's auxiliaries have
been pressing for the new plan, aided
by the Detroit CLIO council.

the introduction of Senate Bill No.
2444 and House Resolution 6371.
Hearings on both these measures
were held by committees of both
houses, beginning June Is, 1889 and
Commissioner Horace F.. Casey ap-
peared in opposition on behalf of the
Board and the milling and grain grow
ing interests of the state. This also
failed and a petition was filed with
Western Rail Lines in July, 1889, in
hope that the privilege sought for
might be obtained by voluntary action
of the carriers involved. This petit
ton was likewise opposed by the
board and denied on October rs, 1889.
The efforts outlined here all having
been defeated, they filed suit in the
district court of the United States Of

granted permission by the court to
intervene and was represented by
it's counsel and Commissioner Horace
F. Casey. This case was decided in
favor of the defendants and was ap
pealed by the plaintiffs to the U. S.
supreme court. Oral arguments were
heard on November IS, 1941, and the
decision referred to herein handed
down on January 5, 1941. Justice
in rendering the opinion
of the court said in part "If we were
to grant the relief sought by the ap-
pellants, we would be restoring evils
which the exclusive rate-break adjust
ment was destined to remove-evils
which for all we know would be far
more serious than those complained
of by the appellants"

Anaconda Copper

gunman" for the ACM company Is
the secretary Of this publishing COM

The Independent Publishing Com
pany of Helena, publishers of the Hell
ena Independent shows a paid In cap
ital of $4,000 and existing debts of
$279, 637.46.
The Montana Record Publishing
company, publishers of the Montana

$38,945 and existing debts of $751;

T. B. Weir, corporation attorney of
Helena, who also is chief functionary
of a company which is supposed to be
a news" company and is listed in
the statements of ownership published
by some of the publishing companies.
This news" company is not incor-
porated and exists probably in the
person of Weir who in turn looks
after the ACM company's interests in
its propaganda sheets.
The Post Publishing Company of
Butte, publishers of the Butte Post
shows paid in capital of $124,500
and existing debts of $96,704.71. ].
H. Dickey Jr., Anaconda Copper Min
ing Company factotum, is named as
president and general manager of this
publishing company.
The Muscular Publishing Com
pany, publishers of the Muscular,
has paid in capital Of $4,000. 1t
has existing debts of $71,843.31 &C.
cording to the report. ]. H. Dickey
Jr., agent of the ACM company is
vice president of the Missoula pub
fishing concern.
The remedy for a situation such
as exists in Montana in connection
with it's daily press, lies, of course,
with the people Of the state. They
should know and remember, that
when a company such as the ACM
company finds it profitable to expend
hundreds of thousands of dollars each
year in order to control editorial ex-
pressions and policies, it has def
mite aim in view At least part
of this aim is to suppress news and
information to which the people of
the state are entitled and to use it's
columns for the dissemination of out
and out propaganda. Moreover, these
papers are used for the careful build
ing up of the company's stooges as
desirable material for the legislative
assemblies. These stooges, whom we
see in every session, makes admira-
BILE watchdogs for the companys in
terests and the taxes the company
has been able to evade and saddle on
the public's shoulders for the past
many years, by getting these lick
spittles elected and thereby control
ling legislation, will probably keep
the company's losses in running its
offset by savings in legis-
lation for many years to come.

DIGEST OF
ATTY. GENERALS
OPINIONS

The following are questions submit
ted for rulings to Attorney General
Bonner and his official opinions rem
dered on them:
Question: You ask whether ~ a
low-pressure license is required where
low pressure cast iron sectional steel
boilers carrying not to exceed fifteen
pounds steam pressure are used in
public buildings, and (2) safety de-
vices may be used on steam boilers
to take the place of licensed en-
gineer.
Held: % Low-pressure license is
required for low pressure boilers in
public building irrespective of fact
that steam pressure may be below
fifteen pounds, and (2) Safety devices
may not be used to take place of IL
censed engineers
Question: The Board of County
Commissioners have made a special
per capita tax under this act My
understanding is that the monies de-
rived from this levy would be placed
directly into the Poor Fund and be
expendable under expenditures au-
thorized by the 1941-1942 budget
However, due to the peculiar wording
of this act, it occurs to me that there
is possibility that l am in error as
to my understanding of the DISPOSE
ton that should be made of the mon
les collected and that it is possible
these monies should be set aside for
the 1942-43 budget.
You will note that if this is a
1941-42 Special Poor Fund Tax, that
the peculiar situation is created of
collecting a 1941-42 Special Poor Tax
and 1942-49 Personal Property Tax on
the same assessment and levy.
Inasmuch as this question will, no
doubt, come up in numerous cases,
we would appreciate your opinion as
to when the proceeds of such tax are
to be taken up in the budget account
ing
Held: % The proceeds from the
per capita poor tax levied under Sec
tion 1864, Revised Codes of Mon
tana, 1885, as amended by Chapter
165, Laws of 1941, when and as col
lected must be deposited to the credit
of the poor fund.
(2) In making up the county budg-
ct, the estimated proceeds from a per-
capita poor tax to be levied in De-
cember may be taken into considera-
ton and included therein.
(3) Unless included in the budget
estimate, proceeds from the per capt.
ia poor tax may not be expended dur
ing the current fiscal year, but must
be carried as a balance at the end
of the fiscal year.
