Small Farmers Not
Entrepreneurs

Ellery Foster, of the Bureau of
Agricultural Economics, writing in
the bureaus monthly publication,
Land Policy Review" raises a ques-
tion about which we are bound to
hear quite bit in the future 1t is
whether the government, in develop
ing its social security programs, should
classify the small farmer (tenant and
owner-operator) as an entrepreneur or
as worker.
Foster contends that the small
farmer belongs in the same class as
the worker (city worker or farm-la-
borer) for the following reasons:
He depends chiefly on his own la
Dor power for his livelihood; he can
not look forward to the farm for Sc
curity after he retires from active
farm work; he needs social security
program to take care of him in his
old age; his income is impaired when
he is disabled physically; he has the
same problem Of seasonal unemploy-
ment as has the farm-laborer; he has
a common interest with the farm-la-
borer in nonfarm work opportunities
to bolster his farm income, while his
health, nutrition, and housing prob
lens are similar.
IF we go ahead" says Foster, land
develop a social security program for
farm labor, and exclude the tenant
and small owner as being entrepre-
neurs, we will be leaving untitled a
keenly felt want of farm operators.
1t is quite possible that if we do
not develop a rural social security
program after the war which will ex
tend security to the small farmer, he
will gradually disappear from the
American economic scene.

The cause of government loans and
government projects in Montana was
to do the functions of banks, which
the bankers had been forced to quit
because of their ignorance, their
greed, their corruption. They had
been tried in the balances of evolu-
ton and found of short weight.
Banks function largely on govern
ment aid. Most real estate loans in
the name of banks filed for record
in this stae are guaranteed by some
federal agency. If the railroads stop
running trains, the federal govern
ment must and win run them. So,
when the bankers quit banking, the
Roosevelt administration started
banking.
I never find fault with what l see
in the Standard. It is like the de-
scription the stranger gave of our
changing weather "If you do not like
the weather in Butte, stick around an
hour or so and you will get the kind
you like" Twenty years ago, before
the deal was made to send Wheeler
to the senate and get him out of state
politics and cleverly wean him from
his local progressive support without
any open betrayal on his part, Wheel
er was running for governor. The
Standard said "Wheeler's platform
was written by Lenin and imported
from Moscow" and Wheeler has said
to 5000 people below the Butte Hotel
balcony: when you see my (Wheel-
er's) name on the front page of the
Montana Standard or the Butte Daily
Post, you may say have sold out"

REPORT OF WORK
in SUPREME
COURT FOR WEEK
EARINGS:

HEARINGS:
February 18th: Allendale Irrigation
Company VS.. State Water Conserva-
tion Board and Flint Greek Water
Users Assn. This is an appeal from
the District Court of Granite County,
Philipsburg.
Controversy presented: In this case
both parties claimed certain waters
flowing in Flint Creek on July s, 1889.
The State Water Board had developed
certain new water and brought 1t
over the divide into the Flint Creek
watershed. The Allendale Company
had certain rights in the natural flow
of Flint Creek. The State Water
Board claims that the law gives 1t
the right to sell the developed water
and reclaim and repossess it after it
has been used Since the Allendale
Company takes its water out far down
the stream, it became a question of
fact whether the water claimed by
each of the parties was the return
flow of the previously used developed
water or whether 1t was natural flow
of Flint Creek to which the Allen
dale Company was entitled. The dis
trict court held that the water was
return flow from the newly developed
water and therefore belonged to the
State Water Board. The Supreme
Court took the case under advisement.
DECISIONS
February 21st: State ex rel. Bar
nardCurtiss Co. VS.. District Court of
Granite County, Philipsburg. Unani-
nous opinion by Judge Albert Ander-
son.
Heidi The Barnard-Curtiss Com
pany Is q defendant in suit now
pending in the district court. The
plaintiff in that case seeks to collect
for certain work which he had done
for the defendant company. The Bar
nard-Curtiss Company filed on Q
answer and then some months later
asked permission to amend its answer
and set up a new defense. This de-
fense was that the company had
dealings with this plaintiff as a part
ner of another who had successfully
sued In the United States Federal
Court for the same work and that
that judgment had been paid. The dis
trict court refused to allow this
upon the grounds, among
others, that the Barnard-Curtiss Com
pany had waited too long a time in
this defense before the court
and that the defense was not good
defense in law. The Barnard-Curtiss
Company then asked the supreme
court for a writ of supervisory con-
-rol. The supreme court took the posi-
lion that since the proposed defense
was payment, that defense could not
have been made until the judgment
n the federal suit was rendered and
paid. Hence the delay was excusable.
Further, if the defense of payment
alleged in the proposed amendment
could be proven, it would be good
lefense. A writ of Supervisory Con-
.rol was directed to be issued, COM
the District Court to allow
he amendments.

Mr.. Dan MILESTONE
Cut Bank, Montana
Dear Friend Dan:
| noticed your attack on the presen
primary plan In our election system
certainly agree with you that many
candidates so elected do not repre-
sent the rank and file of the voters
but cannot help but believe that this
system is still better than the old con-
vention system where an inside clique
or gang not only ran the city, but
county and state machines and no
man would have a chance to be elected
or even nominated without the full ap-
proval of the inside boys. | person
ally know this was true both in Fer
gus and Cascade counties and take 1t
for granted that 1t was the same in
all other counties.
/ do think we could greatly improve
our primaries lot by combination
of both systems. First, allow the
voters to vote for precinct committee
men in the primary election which
would give a representative vote of
the people as to whom they expected
would attend the conventions. The
second ruling should be that no one
could serve as a committeeman or
who was already
elected or whose name would appear
on any ballot. This would eliminate
the political ring from dominating
both parties.
After the precinct committeeman
were elected, first we would have
city convention representing all the
precincts in that city and they in con-
vention assembled, would select one
person for each elective office In the
city. Then, shortly after that date,
have a county convention which
would in turn select candidates for
each county office for the various
political parties. They in convention
assembled could select number of
delegates from their own group ac-
cording to population, to attend
state convention and they In conven-
ton assembled would elect one candi-
date in each party who would best
represent and qualify for the office
selected and this state convention in
assembled would select
The delegates to each national con-
vention, the number depending on
population.
In this way we would combine the
present system with the old conven-
ton system, which, to my mind, are
both unable to select good timber and
of the general public.
Then, when election time came, all
voters would be allowed the privilege
to vote for any candidate on the
ballot, either Republican, Democrat,
or any other political party. This
would give us fair representation
where the rank and file of the vot-
srs would have some choice in the

selection of qualified candidates.
l simply mention this as the
groundwork from which | think could
be worked out new primary law
that would be adequate and fair to
all the voters and would be represen-
tative of all the people. 1t is crime
to have from five to seven candi-
dates appear on the ballot for one
office when only one can receive the
as often the poorest rep

gestion is merely made for the gen.

The Nazi Line
If you don't know the nazi line in
this country, here it is:
Look out for Russia. We will
have to fight the Communists before
we are through, so it's best not to
supply them with too much war ma
terial"
I'VE shouldn't have gotten into this
war in the first place, but now that
we are in it we have to win" This
line creates sentiment for a negoti-
ated peace at the first opportunity.
"The English are just waiting for
others to do the fighting for them, as
always Why be suckers for them?"
"The British never will invade the
continent until there are American
suicide squads to do the dying"
Lets keep our soldiers and our
ships at home to protect our own
Shores" That's a mighty good way
to lose the war
"This war is going to end up in a
war between the white and yellow
races" The purpose of this is to
create the feeling that the Japs and
not the nazis are our mortal enemies,
which will help the idea of negoti-
ated peace.
England is more of liability in
this war than she is an asset. They
can't win battle. We have to pro-
tect their possessions for them"

Labor Rationing' Next7

There is much talk in defense cir
cles that we soon will go In for labor
rationing" as result of a contem-
plated shortage of workers, particu-
larly skilled and semi-skilled.
Talk in that direction now revolves
about whether the labor rationing"
setup shall be one-man affair or by
a board. 1t is likely to be by board.
Labor rationing," it is explained,
will be vastly different from compul-
sorry labor. Purpose is to see that
the best use is made of available labor
for winning the war. Essential war
industries will have labor priority"
over non-essential industries.
