FLOUR PRICES GO UP,
BUT NOT BREAD PRICES

| In order to eliminate price lnequi'
ties between wheat and flour and al
low for higher wheat prices without
recourse to subsidy, the OPA has an
nounced specific dollars-and-cents
price ceilings for sales by millers and
blenders of flour from wheat, semo-
lima and farina.
| OPA stated that this increase in
flour prices should not necessitate an
increase in the present retail bread
prices because the higher flour costs,
| it is estimated, will be completely off
set by savings in the manufacture,
packaging and distribution costs of
bakers affected under program an
nounced simultaneously by the depart
ment of agriculture.
The order issued by the department
of agriculture discontinues the con-
signment selling of bread, places def
mite restrictions on the number of
varieties of bread any baker may
make or sell in a given week, stops
the sale of sliced bread for home con-
sumption, makes possible other econ
omies, and provides that all white
bread must be enriched to approved
nutritive standards.

Division of Grain Standards
And Marketing of the Dept.
OF Agriculture Compelled to
Exceed Appropriation TO
Meet Demands of Service.

A deficiency appropriation of $26,
600 is asked by the division of grain
standards and marketing of the state
department of agriculture, in order to
meet the demands for scale and grain
testing up to June 30 of the present
year, the appropriation made by the
last session of the legislature having
been found inadequate to that extent.
The appropriation made by the last
assembly was based on the cost of
operations of this division over a pc
riod of years and naturally could not
and did not take into account the de-
mands created by the unusually heavy
crops in 1941 and 1912. Prior to June
80, 1941, the division of grain stand
ards and marketing had been operated
solely on fees received from the serv-
ices rendered and had accumulated a
evolving fund surplus of $24,149.54
on June 80, 1871 aftee paying expenses
of operation up to that time over a
period of years. This revolving fund,
under the provisions of House Bill No.
10 passed by the 1871 assembly, re-
verified to the general fund the same
as all other fees from the operations
of the various state departments. The
provisions of that act required this
and that fixed appropriations of def
mite sums be allocated to the depart
ments for special services rendered.
The tremendous increase in the
work of the grain testing laboratories
in 1941 and 1912, is indicated by re-
ports from the Great Falls laboratory.
In that year July 1, 1910 to June 80,
1941 protein samples fom 3,041 car
loads were tested In the succeeding
year, when the department was COM
PEELED to operate on an appropriation
based on average years, protein con-
tents of 5,411 carloads were tested and
in the last six months of 1912, 3,445
carloads were tested, or 404 carloads
more than in the entire year 1940-41
The same conditions were faced by
the department in connection with
submitted for protein testing
In the year 1940-41, 30,259 samples
were submitted. In the year 1941-42

COMMENTS
ON THE
LEGISLATURE
CONTRIBUTED


Montana's self-named economy and
efficiency" legislature proved to be
running true to form when on Friday
of last week the house met for seven
minutes and the senate for II min
utes, and thereupon both adjourned
until the following Monday afternoon.
Oh, for the life of a legislator 1t is
true that nothing much transpired the
first week, but this humble observer
feels that the legislature, especially
during war time, should be on the
job and earn its pay.
The session started off with a type
writer squabble. Sen. W. E. Kelley,
majority leader in the senate, an
nounced that the state departments
had palmed off a lot of "pre-war
typewriters" on the legislature which
were incapable of writing legibly,
and that the carbon paper supplied
was of a very poor quality Pur-
chasing Agent Russell A. Shaw, whose
office assigned the typewriters to the
legislature, reported that they were
all in good first-class condition and
that the carbon paper was the same
grade as used the year around in all
state offices. That ended that contro-
versy for awhile.
Starting off on Monday afternoon
both houses had short sessions which
your correspondent attended. Notice

ton, the radio will be used to keep
the northwest informed of GTA activ-
ties.
The program is the contribution of

Dear Senator Murray:
Following our conversation of re-
cent date in Butte concerning the
Mining Loans Department of the R.
F. c., and putting in the form of a
lleter the criticisms that I then made,
this branch of governmental endeavor
in Montana should be abandoned and
all of its personnel released into ac-
tive military service, and probably its
office furniture and other supplies
sold It has been failing to function
| in any manner useful to the war eff
fort ever since it was inaugurated.
There have been several loans APP
proved for the dredging of placer gold
in times gone by; but, as is now
known, gold is not useful to the sue
cessful prosecution Of the war be-
cause of the immense stock of gold
in the vaults of the United States. 1t
has possibly gone through the form
of granting loans for the development
of chrome in eastern Montana. This
was doubtless administrative process
only. The field work, the appraisal
of market necessities, and other facts
necessary for a correct decision on
whether to proceed or not, was done
by the Bureau of Mines

posits in Montana and government aid

ganese ores, and the question of sub
sides were all done by the Bureau Of
Mines.
Last summer | had a conversation
with Mr. Art Descelles, one of the
occupants of chair and desk in the
office of this REC. branch of gov
eminent endeavor. Mr.. Descelles said
that of sixty-two applications for
small loans, he had recommended two,
and that those two could not legally
qualify, so that on his own statement,
the work of himself and his assist
ants in new production of needed
metals had produced exactly no re-
suits at all.
| myself have caused three applica
lions to be made to that department
for small loans for mining develop

as being highly probable to produce

CAPITOL
HICHLICHTS
CONTRIBUTED

Although the state legislature con
tinued to hold the attention of every
one in Helena this week, a great deal
of important news took place in varl'
ous state departments. The Capitol,
filled with visitors, legislators, lobby
lists, and regular employees, was busy
place and all indications were that it
would continue to be until the end of
the session.
Most spectacular news of the week
was the filing by certain Great Falls
furriers, through their attorney of
charges asking for the removal of DR..
]. S. Mcfarland, state game warden,
who was appointed by Governor Ford
in 1871 The charges alleged that Nc
Farland employed Hitlerian methods
in getting evidence concerning an al
legged beaver pelt racket, and that he
sold confiscated beaver pelts to Sc
attic firm without permitting local
furriers to bid on them. The petition
recited other instances of what they
claimed to be "malfeasance' in office,
and demanded that the State Fish and
Game Commission remove Mcfarland
That there has been a beaver pelt
without question, and it was due to
DR.. Mcfarland and the Fish and Game
Commission, Governor Ford, and for
mer Attorney General Bonner that the
racket was uncovered. In fact, Gov
ernor Ford touched on the matter in
his message to the legislature urging
that Montana's beaver laws be re-
modelled so that there might be ade-
ouate state control of beaver. 1t is
therefore generally agreed in Helena
that the purpose of this attack by the
furriers is to forestall any legislative
change in Montana's statutes relating
to beaver BY using this smoke
screen attack on Mcfarland, the fur
interests hope to stop any legislation
intended to improve the control of the
state over beaver.
Another important meeting of the
State Liquor Board was held this
week regarding applications for Ii
censes The board has found that it
lacks the necessary powers to deal
with applicants for liquor licenses,
and a change in the law will probably
be recommended. In Great Falls
great deal of trouble arose over the
taverns in the suburb of Black Eagle,
which was the scene of a serious

REP. MARCAhT0NI0
INTRODUCES new
P0LL-TAx BILL

Rep. Vito Marcantonio (ALP, N. "
president of the International Labor
Defense, on January 6 introduced in
congress the anti-poll tax bill of 1913.
1t was given the official designation
of H. r. z.
Cong. Marcantonio announced that
every parliamentary maneuver would
be used to force passage of the bill
in 1913, to prevent a senate filibuster
such as defeated a similar bill in 1912.
If the bill is passed this year, sem
ate filibuster would have to last all
through 1914 to be successful.

The petition alleges among other
charges that Mcfarland after adver-
Using LOO beaver skins and sundry
other skins for sale on June IL of last
year, only sold $50 confiscated beaver
skins "most of which were old skins
and of poor quality and which were
poorly handled" and that the remand
er of the skins were offered for sale
on October % with only two fur deal
ers present to bid due principally
to the fact that personal notice to the
fur dealers in Montana and elsewhere
was not given until October 20, 1912,
at $3.50 D. m when postal cards were
mailed out to the various dealers in
Montana advising them of the sale.
The charges are that while the full
market price of the skins offered,
totalling $4,000 was bid, the bids on
all except 202 of the beaver skins
were rejected and the balance of the
skins, some 459, were bid in for the
commission by the warden at prices
in excess of the market value at the
time.
Later, the petition charges that Nc
Farland split the lot of 459 skins into
two shipments, one containing 20 con-
traband skins and 439 which had been
trapped by deputy game wardens on
McFarland's instructions and both lots
shipped to the Seattle Fur Exchange
and that this organization sold them
at "priyate sale or treaty and not
by auction. The charges state that
the Seattle Fur Exchange sold the
pelts for $9,250, charging the Mon
tana Fish and Game Commission four
per cent for handling the sale, and
that the furs sold were actually worth
$S35.50 more than the total for which
they were sold by the Seattle firm.

VINO EXPLAINS
ITS Views ON
BUTTE deal

A letter to Senator Murray from the
war manpower commission, written IL
reply to a request from the senator FOL
an explanation of the furloughing O
miners for work in the Butte mines
while former Butte miners were mo-
furloughed, is published below, Sen
ator Murray having forwarded a copy
of the letter to The Voice:
Office of Emergency Management
War Manpower Commission
Washington, D. C.
Dec. 26, 1912
My dear Senator:
In accordance with your letter OF
December 10. 1912, I am very glad to
furnish you with the following infor-
nation with reference to the arrange
ments made for furloughing men from
the Army for employment by the Ana
conda Copper Company and other
mining companies.
In August 1912, because of the seri-
Gus decrease in the production of cop
per and certain other non-ferrous ores,
particularly in the western states, the
war production board, the war and
navy departments and the war man
power commission developed a pro-
gram under which each agency would
take certain action to provide and
maintain the necessary labor s.nnlv
for these mines.
One of the steps involved in this
program (Which, incidentally, was ap-
proved by representatives of both
management and labor in the indus
try) was the temporary furloughing
from the army of approximately 1000
miners. The war department agreed
to this unusual action because of the
grave situation it faced in securing
sufficient copper and other metals for
munitions and other essential war
production.
The procedures worked out between
the war department and the United
States Employment Service of the
war manpower commission for the
selection of the men to be furloughed
were as follows:
1. The army through its own CLASH
fication system, was to designate
those men it was willing to fur
Tough for this purpose. 1t was the
understanding of the United States
Employment Service that the army
would designate only men with pre-
vious handbook mining experience,
but apparently men with other types
of mining experience, such as btu
minous coal miners, were also in
cluded in the group which the army
made available for release.
2. The men thus selected by the
army were assembled at Camp Nc
Coy and at Camp Kearns At these
points the United States Employ
ment Service stationed interviewers
to direct the men to specific job
