fore needs a conservative world or
der. The Russians seem to me to
be ultra-realists.
On the other hand, il Is equally
true that much Of our peace pro-
posal talk is following obsolete
thought guided by past history in
stead Of coming history. We think
mainly of putting the screws upon
Germany and Japan so they never
can rise again, but they can easily
be put down to minor military pow
ers, and kept there as long as the
world is alert.
The major military forces ex-
listing after this war will be d.
vided between the United States
and Russia, and the mutual re-
lations between these two alone
are apt TO have more 10 do with
the future peace Of the world
than whatever we do to Germa-
ny and japan.
But this is not the only invisible
electricity in the air at Dumbarton
Oaks. South Dakota's Senator Bush
field was right in his contention In
the senate that the American Sc
curity plan would give the President
the power TO declare war.
While the administration does not
wish TO admit this now. fearing the
point may become involved in the
campaign, it does not intend TO
change that recommendation.
BY unanimous vote of the Big
Four nations on the proposed execu-
tive council Omitted States, Britain,
Russia and China), military action
could be taken.
Thus the President, who naturally
would dominate the American coun-
cilor, could send troops anywhere in
the world without consent Of con-
gress.
The true administration position
on this is hardly along the line SEN
ator Connally offered to Bushfield.
1t truly feels speed is essential to
throttle military aggression.

WASHINGTON. - The censorious

OF efforts TO be charming TO tho

In the matter Of seating for pic

so the Russian delegates would be
on the right hand Of the Americans.
For many generations past, the Brit
ish always have sat there or at the

tables.
Protocol practitioners OF our
state department sank into \

identified the British as occupy
Ing the position Of the Russians.

might help relations a lot more. or

run.

for one instance, appears to have

The attitude seems due rather
to a prevailing diplomatic i'm

bargaining position. ! wish all
the people with whom do bust
ness would consider me sensl
tive.
Behind II also is the unannounced
conviction high in Washington and
London that there will be war with
Russia within IS years unless a mu-
tually acceptable postwar peace un-
derstanding is reached now.
The British are especially afraid
Of Russia. They see her not only
sitting at their usual place at this
conference but in the Balkans as
well. and indeed likely to sit there
over all Europe.
For instance, there were four
French underground movements. all

was the Russian. In the temporary
DeGaulle cabinet, these elements
are acquiring posts Of power.
The Balkan Policy.
The Balkan nations, formerly
guided by British financial and po-

and the same problem in Italy has
reached the point of a clash, despite
our efforts to postpone meeting the
issue as long as possible.
This is an unavoidable. apparen,
and dominant matter Of the peace
and to try to hold the public head
in the sand will not solve the situa-
ton. The truth is, Russia is estsb-

the world, and any concrete agree
ment for postwar sterilization
means sterilization protecting her
new position as well as our own.

HOW TO INCREASE FOOD PRODUCTION
IMMEDIATELY

AS we had frequently predicted, the irrigated areas of the
west have proved themselves in this war. They have provided
an assured and steady production of many vital crops teec
for livestock, beets for the nations sugar bowls, millions of tons
of vegetables.
Authorities in Washington are cognizant of this record. They
are now talking about construction of more irrigation projects
to produce more vital war crops. The proposal has the support
of reclamation-m minded men. At the same time, it would be
possible almost Immediately to increase the production from
existing irrigation projects in Montana by 30 or 40 percent.
This is true of other states.
The Montana Reclamation association gave notice of this at
its recent Bozeman meeting. Our local director of the associ-
alton, Otto M. Christinson, says the situation obtains on the
Milk river project, as it does elsewhere.
Only from so to 70 percent of the land now under the ditch
on this and other projects is being utilized. Some land cannot
be watered by existing lateral bitches. Many acres, in low
swales or on humpy hilocks, cannot be reached by water. Far
mers on the land are not able to remedy the situation. They have
neither the finances nor the big dirt moving equipment to build
bitches and level the land.
The association received reliable information that equipment
is available in surplus quantities on the east coast for this
kind of work. The problem would be to bring it here and then
work out a plan of financing and operation under some federal
or state agency, such as the soil conservation service. 1t
might even take some additional legislation from congress. A
method would have to be worked out for the farmer to shoulder
the cost on a longterm basis. This will be for actual cost, not
including machinery depreciation or rental.
Another avenue for improvement work of this kind is
through a state law allowing formation of soil conservation
districts. Through the Glasgow irrigation district and Chamber
of Commerce, steps toward such organization already have
started.
But we bespeak to Washington this means of getting pro-
duction quickly. 1t could be done this year, to get land into
crop by 1945 at the very latest. The job should be left in the
hands of one agency we've had too many fingers in too many
farm pies in the past. And it should be started at once. In
creasing productivity of irrigation projects would be a quick
and less expensive means for the government to reach its goal.
And it would benefit the areas where these projects are located.

WHAT AIRLINES TELL SMALL TOWNS

We have been preaching the gospel of potential values tt
small towns of coming arlnes expansion and development anc
we are glad to see that stand backed by an advertisement Of
the Northwest Airlines. Incidentally, it is this same line thai
is now proposing routes in northern Montana.
In an advertisement in a newspaper trades magazine, adj
dressed to small town publishers, Northwest points out how
speedy air service may make many small towns suburbs OF
cities 200 or 300 miles distant.
Does this seem fanciful?" it asks. Actually that kind of
committing is perfectly feasible today. And this is just one of
the possible, and probable, developments which aviation holds
forth to rural America. Isn't it time to be thinking about these
matters? We are not day dreaming when we contemplate
the changes that lie ahead, and prepare ourselves to meet them.
Let editors and mayors, and civicminded persons in the smaller
cities and towns give heed a moment $50"
Then we have a fashback to the day of early railroad de-
velopment and the revolutionary changes it brought to many
isolated sections of the hinterland, when almost overnight,
barren spots on the prairies became thriving settlements"
There are many Montanans still living who can remember that
era.
Tomorrow it continues, air transport will work another
big cities will lose some of their dominance who knows? But
in any event, the smaller towns will surely be ascendant in the
air-age From a commercial standpoint, the picture may be
less dramatic, and yet the possibilities are arresting
Northwest Arines, with an eye to the future, has already
made application for many extensions and branches of its
present routes. Just as rapidly as these applications are ap-
proved, and plans made available, we shall inaugurate service
on these additional lines, bringing numerous smaller cities
throughout the northern United States within overnight fyine
distance OF any other point in the nation!"
There is the picture as presented by a major airline. 1t
relates directly to northern Montana. These expanded opera
tons are not far off. But the airlnes must have the active
cooperation of leaders in these smaller towns. Now is the time
to lay plans.
