| Admitting that China suffered
from an inflated currency, DR.. Kung
said that I'VE feel that the fact
of our having been able to control
imitation to the extent we have,
should be more appreciated He
predicted that 1t would end after
the war when consumer goods be-
come more plentiful.
Communism Serious"
DR.. Kung described Communism
in China as a serious problem, but
said that his government was deter
mined to settle it within the frame
work of democratic processes"
Regarding charges that China is
not a true democracy, DR.. Kung
answered: .- :
May remind you that the foun-
dations for a democratic state have
been deeply laid down in China, and
process of evolution to achieve a
greater democracy is proceeding
rapidly. The Chinese government
has promised its people that one
year after the cessation of hostili-
ties there will be held a national
convention to adopt the permanent
constitution. That promise the
Chinese government shall keep"
Turing to the future, DR.. Kung
said:
China solemnly promises that she
will cooperate to the fullest with
her Allies in establishing peace. She
agrees to assume her full share of
responsibility in the council of ma
tions and to identify herself with
plans for security that will insure
peace on earth, good will toward
men,
I'VE know that as the tide of bat
tie has turned in favor of the United

Chinese government has formulated
plans for our country's rehabilita-

the interests of the welfare of all
our people I shall briefly enumerate
to you some of the things we are
doing:
I'VE are altering our laws to make
possible the utilization of assistance
from every source in the develop
ment of our rural, industrial and
political economy.
I'VE are planning to expand our
national public health service to
attend better the health of our peo-
pie and to give them Nation-wi

I'VE are broadening the scope of

In commenting on h e state
ments made by Left Erickson,
Democrat candidate for Cover
nor at Scoby said:
The Erickson statements are
astonishing in their gross depar-
ture from facts, and must b e
based on either total mis.infor-

ton. The Erickson statement
that the average profit from the
Liquor Control Board should be
over million dollars a year, yet
there has been no profit turned
over to h State of Montana
made prior to October Is, l945, )
Is answered by official records
which show that t he average
amount turned over to the State
annually is in excess of Two and
a Quarter MILAN Dollars. The
actual sum turned over to the
State for the three fiscal years
from July /, 194l to June 80, 1914

Maintenance Of

Montana's highway mainten-
ance, under wartime pressure.
has been of the quality to attract
nationwide attention, letters re-.
ceived recently by the state high.
way department from federal
authorities and out-of-state trav-
elers indicate.
A tribute both to the highway
maintenance program in wartime
and to the maintenance carried
on by tn. department on army
airport facilities in the state is
this comment in a letter from the
zone transportation officer. Ninth
Army Service Command, Fort
Douglas. Utah, which praised the
department for cooperation
which tends to bind closer the
relationship of army and civil
authorities. During t he war
period. only those road projects
which are certified by war agen-
cies as essential to the war pro-
gram can be turned over to con-
tractors.
Best comment on winter main
tenance. which has bean particu-
larly difficult in northern states
during wartime. was that of q
person travelling from Florida to
Seattle in midwinter by car:
montana is by far doing a bet
ter job of snow removed than any
other state through which W e
have passed. Snow was removed
both from highways and from a
number of army airports in the
state.
Of the overall maintenance.
Steve G. Tate. chairman of the
