| Demand FOR
LUMBER GREAT
SAYS WPB

MINNEAPOLIS. - The lumber in
dustry need have no fear of shrinking
markets either during the war or aft
erwards, said northwest WPB Off
Gals today, in response to numerous
inquiries from lumbermen
Consumption for civilian and mill
tary construction has decreased and
this has created the rather wide
spread impression that the general
overall demand for lumber is decreas-
ing. Quite the contrary is the case,
according to WPB officials, and the
industry need not worry about over
production now or after the war
Civilian consumption of lumber in
1913 was held to half of the amount
used in 1912, chiefly because of the
urgent necessity for conserving sup
plies for war use, and represents per-
mitted use, not potential demand.
When this dammed-up civilian de-
mand is released after the war, it will
absorb the drop in military consump-
ton and even absorb production so
per cent greater than we now have, if
such an increase in production were
possible, according to WPB officials
here
WPB says the overall demand to-
day for lumber is as great as can be
met by the industry and will undoubt-
eddy continue to be as great for the
duration. Increased military demand |
may be expected as new fighting
fronts are opened up and supply lines
are extended. During the current |
year, military and permitted civilian
used all the lumber the |
industry could produce and drew
heavily on mill stocks and retail and
wholesale yard stocks to meet their
leeds. Lumber is one of the most
,ritical materials today. The indus
ry should push production to the
INIT.

LEGISLATIVE SABOTAGE

receiving less than $1,000 a year.
More than half the states have teach
ers who are receiving less than 5000
a year. Such stipends do not bring
high caliber instructors to our public
schools. They have been responsible
for wholesale abandonment of the
teaching profession. During the
1942-43 school year, 10000 teachers
left our public schools. An additional
100000 are expected to leave during
the current year.
True enough, the causes of this
situation are local. But the conse-
quences are national. Inadequate
education in any part of the country
makes itself felt in national affairs,
is reflected in the laws under which
all of us must live. And it cannot
be remedied locally. For the situa-
ton embraces vicious circle made
quate education breeds poverty; and
poverty makes adequate education i'm
possible. If this is not a fit sphere
for federal aid, then we are no longer
a union but mere confederacy.
NOTE: The federal aid bill has now
been introduced in the house as H.
r. 2849.

BRITISH TRADE
UNION LEADER
URGES C0-0PS

NEW YORK.-"If the trade union.
in the United States would benefit bs
the experience of those in Great Bri
tain in supplying their own consumer
needs through co-operatives, they
would build a strong cooperative
movement faster" said H. N. Harri
son, president of the National Union
of General and Municipal Workers
London.
1.-THE fact that the Cooperative
Bank with a capital of e155, 100000
is one of the largest in England, that
the co-operatives are the largest re
tail traders, and that no government
would pass an important piece of leg
islation without considering the view
point of the cooperative movement,
indicates the ability of the common
people to do business for themselves, .
said William Bayliss. president of the
Nottingham and District Miners Fed
Grated Union, Nottingham, England
The views were presented at a
luncheon at the Eastern Cooperative
Wholesale, New York, honoring the
distinguished British labor leaders
visiting the United States as fraternal
delegates to the Annual Convention
of the American Federation of La
Dor. The staff of the Wholesale, as
well as leaders and friends of Amer
lean labor, greeted the guests after
tour of the newly purchased warehouse
and office building
Mr.. Harrison pointed out that
through growth and mutual assist
ance over the past 100 years, trade
unions have come to recognize coop
eratives as "a roof over the House
Of Labor" OF course, membership in
a cooperative is open to all, but the
has become particularly
identified with the aspirations of la
Dor because co-operatives hold down
the cost of things labor must buy and
because in large industrial areas
here is strong labor participation in
he affairs of the co-operatives. He
pointed out that the Cooperative con-
5ress, the Trade Union congress and
he Labor party are, however, COM
)letely separate and distinct organi-
,ations none of whose policies are
determined by the other organiza-
ions.
Mr. Harrison indicated the nearly |

members of consumer cooperative or
CARNATIONS in the United States, met
here after several preliminary execu-
tive conferences in Washington where
representatives of cooperative organ
izations throughout the world met to
discuss plans for cooperative recon
struction. The Cooperative League
of the USA is the member in the
International Cooperative Alliance, a
long established international organ
ization. 1t has been estimated that
one-fourth of the people of the world
are now associated with these coop
eratiye organizations.
In all the preliminary conferences
the representatives of co-operatives in
foreign countries emphasized that
philanthropy was not desired by for
eign cooperative members, that all
that was needed was a program of
rehabilitation based upon plans to in
spire and help co-operatives and their
members to help themselves. 1t was
o4OW IL COhSiooifOAJ dioO lAdt CO-Op-
eratiVe organizations in practically
all the occupied countries of Europe
were a dominant part of the economic
and social life and that they offered
the finest agencies to distribute credit
and goods and build democratic proc
esses within the countries. Govern
mental representative in those coun-
tries, as well as religious and farm
and labor leaders, agree that coop
erative organizations offer the great |
est assurance of the rebuilding of a |
sound, peace-inspiring society within
those countries.
Final plans for the great interna-
tional conference of cooperative lead |
ers to be held in January have been |
made. The conference was to have
been held in October but was post
poned until after the United Nations
conference had been organized. In
he cooperative conference, it is as
,ured that working organization of |
,o-operators will be developed to con-
,ribute the greatest possible assist
ance that could be given to the Leh-
nan organization.

GRAIN Market
.STRENGT HENED
BY REPORTS

Announcement of a flour subsidy
program to be administered by the
RFC was the dominant influence in
grain markets during the week ended
November 19 and all grains led by
wheat scored advances. Unfavorable
crop reports from the dry areas Of the
winter wheat belt also had strength
ening influence. Gains during the
week placed prices for high protein
wheat at parity levels. Demand for
all cash grain continued aggressive.
This was reflected in strong premi-
ums for spot grain over the Deem
Der delivery price and in addition
placed the December at premiums
over the May futures. Mills, feed
manufacturers, grinders maltsters,
etc, all were eager buyers of spot
supplies.
WHEAT: Gro preports from the dry
southern and western sections of the
winter wheat belt were unfavorable
but added moisture was beneficial to
wheat in much of the northern inte-
tut anu HOl luWtSltIu dTbdS. OOlu
weather retarded growth in some sec
tons with snow covering affording
protection in the northern Mississippi
valley, Upper Lake regions, and north
eastern district Fall grains are in
generally good condition where moist
ure was ample. In Indiana the best
wheat was reported to be about 6
inches high in some sections. 1t is
also high enough to Craze in the east
ern third of Kansas.
CASH WHEAT: Receipts of cash
wheat at Minneapolis were a little
anger for the week and totaled 2,788
;ars of all classes while Duluth I'M
oaded 1,513. Mill inquiry was supple
nented by good demand from feed |
mixers, grinders, and distillers, so
premiums remained very strong and |
worked some higher. This was espe |

MEDICAL CARE
PROVIDED FOR
DEFENDANTS

Wives and babies of 88S servicemer
were approved for maternity and in
FAINT care in Montana up to November
under the emergency program sci
up by the Montana State Board OF
Health in cooperation with the Chill
dren's Bureau of the u. S. Depart
ment of Labor, it was announced to-
day.
Montana apparently has fairly
complete coverage for those who are
eligible for benefits of this service, y
said Dr. Edythe Hershey, director of
the division of Maternal and Child
Health basing her observations on
the number of applications received.
Physicians as a whole are coop
Grating and participating in the pro-
gram and agreements have been made
with all hospitals in the state for care
of these patients" she said
The program was authorized in
Montana last May after a basic plan
was prepared by the state health de-
partment and approved by the Chill
dren's Bureau 1t permits the wife of
a seryiceman in any one of the four
lowest pay grades to select doctor
and receive complete maternity serv-
ice during the prenatal period, child
birth and six weeks thereafter, includ-
ing care of complications, operations,
examination and medical
care for the newborn baby
Funds are provided from an $751;
100000 congressional appropriation
which will be used to take care of the
estimated 10000 to $4,000 additional
cases in the nation each month be-
tween now and June 1914.
Full administrative weight in the
operation of the program is carried
by the separate states, however, and
Secretary of Labor Frances
Perkins praised the state health de-
oartments for devoted service, with
)ut any financial assistance from fed
sral funds to get this program work
ng"
Cases of nearly $4,000 servicemen's
wives and babies had been authorized
or care up to September 1, in Al
tates, the District of Columbia Alas
Ia and Hawaii, she said.

>that a new administrator will
be appointed.
The resignation of Fred
Ward of White Sulphur
Springs gave as a reason "the
acute shortage of liquor which
has developed in recent months
has complicated the work to
such an extent that | find |
cannot give it the attention it
requires" A. E. McFatridge
gave uncertain" health and
lack Of time as his reasons for
resigning.
The designations were submitted to
Governor Ford last Friday, the same
day that the governor had declared
that the state would not purchase
stock in the Snowman Distillery Com
pany of Kansas City and the Frazier
Distillery, proposal, probably orig
mating with the administrator and
more involved than the recent deal
with a group of Montana retailers.
Under this latest wild-eyed plan, the
state would have been the party re-
sponsible for approximately 100000
600, though the plan included partici-
patton by Washington and Oregon as
more or less silent partners" If,
everything had gone according to
plan" the optimists in the set-up de-
clared that the state would have
wound up the transaction with $4,000
barrels of laughing water, which when
bottled and delivered to the state
would cost it about $50 a case. Wash
ington and Oregon were then sup
posed to buy part of this whiskey,
Montana's share amounting to about
$1,5OO,OO0 if everything went accord
ing to plan"
The board at it's meeting last Fri
day announced that the ambitious
plan had been postponed indefinitely
for further consideration" but the
decision announced by the governor,
will probably preclude any further
No action by the governor on the
of the board members
has been announced. 1t is expected
hat if the governor accepts the res
gnations he will announce the names
If new appointees at the same time.

COLLECTOR
GIVES Warning
ABOUT RETURNS

Lewis Penwell, collector of internal
revenue for the district of Montana,
advises that a declaration of esti-
mated income and victory tax for the
year 1913 is required to the filed by
all farmers and livestock men subject
to the tax and must be filed on or
before December Is, 1913. Individ-
to make their estimates and file their
declarations on or before September
Is for the year 1913, but due to the
nature of the business engaged in by
farmers and livestock growers the
regulations permitted them additional
time until December Is.
A farmer is defined as one whose
estimated gross income from farming
for the taxable year is at least 500
of his total estimated gross income
from all sources for the taxable year.
Under the regulations farmer tax
payer who is single is required to
file an estimated income tax and vic
tory tax return for 1943 by December
Is, 1913, if he had gross income of
$500 or more for 1912, and anticipates
that he will have a gross income of at
least $500 for 1943. On the other
hand, married person is required to
submit an estimated return If his
gross income was $1,000 for 1912 and
it is anticipated that it will exceed
1924 for 1913, or if the combined gross
income of husband and wife will
amount to $1,000 or more for 1913.
The above outlines those who are
subject to return liability. 1t does
not necessarily mean that they will
be subject to tax, but if the condi-
lions as stated prevail, they are re-
luired to file returns.
