LABOR CAMP
IS PROPOSED
FORCLASCOW
County Agent Urges Use of Old
CCC Facilities Here to
Aid in Harvest.
With Repairs, Quarters Could
Accommodate as Many
as 125 Workers.

Proposal that old CCC barracks
at the Valley county fairgrounds
be utilized to house farm labor for
the harvest was advanced this week
by James McGibney, county agent,
Mr.. McGibney said he had for
warded a suggested plan to the eX-
tension service, which now heads
the national organization to reach
a solution Of the farm labor prob
lem.
The camp. if repaired. could
comfortably accommodate 125 men,
Mr.. McGibney reported.
a survey made by him indicated
that it could be placed in good con-
dition by an expenditure of $265
in repair work. This figure would
be exclusive of the cost of beds,
bedding and cooking utensils and
dishes. .
Mr.. McGibney suggested that
both barracks buildings and living
space under the fairgrounds could
be utilized, as they were by enroll
ees of the civilian conservation
corps before it vas disbanded.
Necessary expenditures would be
for repairs to floors and a water
main leading to the camp and for
heaters. The camp otherwise has
complete cooking, laundry and bath
facilities.
Mr.. McGibney said such a camp
would be especially useful, for eX-
ample, in harvesting Valley coun-
tvs 665 acres of potatoes this fall.
Men could be divided into two or
three large crews that would
quickly cover the large acreages.
Several possible sources of labor
exist, he said.

Involves Rebuilding "AsphaItic

Strong possibility that 5000, 900

work on the Glasgow air base is
expressed in a June issue of the

similar program is also under con-

1t states that plans for the work
to be done this summer should be

War BRINGS
EMPHASIS ON
TEACHER JOB
Miss Ireland Lists the Subjects
that Emergency Shows
Are Most Needed.

The war has shown that Montana
schools this fall must concentrate
even more heavily on teaching his
tory, geography, reading and arith-
metic, it was declared here Thurs
day by Miss Elizabeth Ireland, state
superintendent of public instruction,
speaking at the annual meeting of
Valley county school trustees and
clerks.
Miss Ella Hammerness, acting
county superintendent of schools,
presided at the meeting. Stephen
Weber, county treasurer, discussed
school finances.
Never before has the public
school system SO demonstrated its
worth as it has in this crucible of
war" Miss Ireland said, referring to
the fact that of every 100 men in
the armed service, 60 require tech
nical training.
Mentioning the Japanese, she
commented, I'VE were deluded be-
cause We didn't study their history
more closely" She cited instances of
Jap treachery before Pearl Harbor.
In the far and near east, she said,
There are a billion people about
whom we know little. We must know
more about the history and the
peoples of the world when this war
is over"
Also important is the aim to
teach people to read and read right,
so they may quickly grasp facts.
I'VE are going to teach arithmetic
better than ever before" she added.
Less important, she believes, is
spelling.
Suggestions and helps in opera
tions of their offices were given trus-
tees and clerks by Miss Hammer
ness.
A new trend in school finances
was forecast by Mr.. Weber. In the
last few years, MIR. Weber said,
school districts have been receiving
more money than they have been
spending. This is because of excel
lent tax collections and because of
heavy sales of county-owned lands.
But We are o at the cross
roads and we may expect school
district income to drop during the
next few years." he said. "Delin-
quent taxes, in a large measure,
have been paid and sales of tax
deed land probably will not be so
heavy. Since Jan. l this year tax
deed land sales have amounted to
$50, 000."

nationally under the Craftsmanship
of Paul CT. Hoffman, president of
the Studebaker corporation. to as

productivity in the postwar period, 81
Mr.. Hooking explained.
One purpose of the committee is
to get all business men in retail,
wholesale. and service trades,
amusement and hotel business, etc,
to start now contributing their
ideas to the community C. E. d.
effort and as soon as possible to
start thinking about the vast job
of handling a $135. 900, OO0, 900 pro-
Misunderstanding demand-so that
goods will move-production will

Another purpose is to see that
agricultural, labor, and civic plan

plans of the community committee,
and that the postwar planning by
industry and distribution is CORE
lated with other kinds of civic and
public planning.
To have a satisfactory level of
employment in the postwar period.
Mr.. Hooking said, America must
provide in the neighborhood of
81, 000, 900 jobs, some II 900, 900 more
than in 1910, as soon as possible
after hostilities cease.
ITO achieve this employment
he continued. "the nation must pro-
vide and sell on a profitable basis
an annual output worth approx
mately l40 billion dollars or 40 per-
cent more than in 1910, when about
100 billion in goods and services
turned out.
I'VE know our first and para
mount task is winning this war.
But our second certainly is to see
that the war stays won-that we
don't permit III country to plunge
into the deep depression and wide
Unemployment out of which dictat-
orships and wars have bred in other
parts of the world" Mr. Hooking
said.
IT'S a grass roots job. We aren't
an overhead planning organiza-
ion. We aren't overhead about any
thing. We're engaged in growing
from the roots up and not from the
top down"
Mr.. Hooking said that the Com
nittee for Economic Development
