specifies in order to determine the
election of presidential electors, yet
the troublesome question as to the
propriety of candidates for office
counting ballots still remains.
The action names as defendants
the state canvassing board which is
composed of John Holmes, state audi
tor; Thomas E. Carey, state treas
urer; R. V. Bottomly, attorney general
and Sam Mitchell, secretary of state,
ex-officio chairman of the state can
vassing board. Of these four, three
have already filed as candidates for
state office and the law appears to
frown on candidates counting ballots
for and against themselves. But the
action filed, implies that they are not
to be deprived of that in connection
with absent voters ballots received
after election and up to the first Mon
day in December.
The supreme court has accepted
original jurisdiction in the case and
will hold a hearing on next Monday,
April "a, at 10 o'clock in the forenoon.
1t is expected that the court will rule
promptly in the case.
Attorneys for the plaintiffs are
Wellington d. Rankin, Edmond G.
Toomey, Lester Lobe and Howard

|INTERNAT'L RULE
GOVERNS BEET
LABOR HOUSING

WASHINGTON, d. Cat the re
quest of the beet growers of Montana
Sen. James E. Murray has urged the
War Food Administration to make re
visions in the contracts under which
beet workers are brought into this
country and make available to the
farmers of Montana.
Clarence Popham, president of the
stern Montana Beet Growers Asso
X ton, recommended a flat $500 per
y guarantee for all beet workers
rrJr the entire term under their con-
tract. Senator Murray presented this
recommendation to the War Food
Administration and the War Manpow-
er Commission. Conferences between
the two agencies were held and it
was developed that the overall agree
ment between the government of the
United States and the government of
Mexico would have to be amended to
change present regulations and that
consent would have to be obtained
from the government of Mexico.
These discussions are now continuing
according to the following letter from
Marvin Jones, war food administrator.
Dear Senator Murray:
"The Montana Beet Growers appar
emily object to the provisions of the
contract with respect to lodging the
workers during their stay in this coun-
try and subsisting them on days on
which they are unemployed. These
provisions are required by the Inter-
national Agreement which contains
the following:
The Mexican workers will be fur
nished without cost to them with
hygienic lodgings, adequate to the
physical conditions of the region of
type used by a common laborer
of the region and the medical and
sanitary services enjoyed also with
out cost to them will be identical
with those furnished to the other
agricultural workers in the regions
they may lend their services.
For such time as they are unem-
ployed under period equal to 1870
of the period exclusive of Sundays)
for which the workers have been
contracted they shall receive sub
sistence allowance at the rate of

Treatment OF
MLN0RITIES In
SOVIET RUSSIA

Judging by the results, Russia's
handling of minorities and nationali-
ties is another wonderful idea, an
other flash into the future. 1t seems
to me that it is in the same as the
old American idea that men are Gre
ated equal and have inalienable
rights. Louis Adamic.
How are nationalities and minori-
ties handled in the Soviet Union?
What constitutional guarantees pro-
tect their rights to equality and to
their own culture?
Is it true that there is no discrimi-
nation in the Soviet Union?
How has this been brought about?
The answers to these and other
questions must be of vital interest to
every minority group. They are an
swered in little booklet called 1.-THE
Family of Nations: The Soviet Union"
published by the National Council of
Friendship. Richly
illustrated with a two-page map of
the Soviet Union in color, this book
let tells how the Soviet Union has
changed from a country known as "a
prison house of nations" in the days
of the Tzars to a place where 60 ma
tionalities and 100 small groups, diff
ferent one from another in race and
culture, live united in complete equal
ity.

BOX SCORE"
OF VOTES
PRESENTED
Character of Representation
May Be Determined by
Study of Votes Cast by
Members of Last Legislative
Session.

The Voice is reprinting in this issue
the record of votes by the members
of the house of representatives ON six
measures of vital importance and with
provisions affecting the economic in
terests of the general public of the
state, the workers in the field, factory,
mercantile establishment and mine.
The measures on which the votes
by the members were compiled are ex-
planned below:
Bills in the House
H. B. No. 4: This measure called
for referendum vote by the people
of the state on the creation of a De-
partment of Labor This department
is at the present time a division of
the Department of Agriculture. When
the bill was reported to the house by
the committee on labor, Oliver of
Carter moved that the bill be tabled.
The vote recorded is on divers mo-
ton, which killed the bill. The M
vote is a vote in the interests of all
workers
H. B. No. At: This measure pro-
posed to reduce the classification for
taxation of moneys and credits, mon
eyed capital and shares of banks from
30 per cent to 7 per cent. This was
the only tax relief measure proposed
by the assembly. The influence by
the bankers carried the measure
through both houses, but the bill was
vetoed by the governor The an"
vote is against special privilege and
for the good of the state.
H. B. No. 143 This was bill pro-
posing to increase assistance to the
aged and to eliminate some of the
unjust provisions of the existing law.
The bill was buried" in committee.
The vote recorded was on motion
by Parker of Cascade to "blast" the
bill out of committee The "A" vote
is vote for humanitarian considera-
ton of the needy.
S. B. No 100: This measure pro-
posed to broaden the right of appro-

judgment of what is right and wrong. That
is their privilege. If their votes on the
measures can be justified by them to their
constituents and their people understand all
of the implications of the measures, what
difference does it make to these champions
of privilege? Certainly with the records they
have made in the legislature they cannot
hope to go before all Of the people of the
state and ask their support for election to any
office of direct interest to them They may
be able to continue to delude the people of
their communities, but unless the majority of
the people of the state undergo a decided
change in their outlook upon things, these
reactionaries are scheduled to remain small
time politicians at the best. They are de-
cidedly behind the times. So far behind,
indeed, that they will probably never "catch
up" We hope that study of the box score"
will be of value to the people of the state.
The votes, as recorded will be found in the
journals of the 18th assembly of the House
and Senate.

be issued thereupon, by the
governor, to persons elected
presidential electors.
In the complaint, the plaintiffs state
they are acting as individual electors
as we'll as representatives of the two
major parties. They state the diff
Guilty to be that the presidential cleo
tors must meet this year on December

that county boards of canvassers must
convene on the last day of December
