IN DIFFERENT CLASS

Pensions are in a different class.
They tend 10 give feeling Of
security, and may not stimulate
enterprise. unless made contingent
upon good performance.
PaCoima. Cal. asks
why not have experts fin
fair prices on all goods and
labor, and then reduce these
prices gradually each month?
This would end initiation. reduce
the public debt and help for
cign trade"
Answer Your ideals or aims are
all right. but not the means YOU
suggest l am sure nobody can be
expert enough 10 fix price rela-
tons wisely. and experts would
not agree.
The lowering Of all prices which
you propose would discourage
business and have a deflationarl
effect that at least half the people
would not welcome. Even the Of
feet on the public debt is doubtful
for declining prices may makt'thC
burden Of the taxpayer greater. as
he has 10 pay in money that ha'
increasing purchasing power. i an
quite sure that your propose
would hurt foreign trade, as d
would disturb the relations amonl
currenCies, and would probably
make II harder for foreigners tC
get dollars.

WISE VOTING

The voters of Lincoln county did
wise thing7in the recent election
when they gave Governor Sam
Ford such fine plurality in his
contest for reelection Governor
Ford has made good record as a
highgrade public official and that
should have been sufficient reason
for his reelection. But there are
other reasons why Lincoln county
people showed wisdom in dropping
in votes for him.
The Governor has pledged him.
self to an early completion-When
the war is ended-of the long want
ed and badly needed highways in
the county. The members of the
present State Highway Commission
are pladged to that same end If
new governor had won out, new
highway commission would UNI
doubtedly have been named as soon
as possible They might and they
might not have been favorable to
Lincoln county's highway needs.
1t was fortunate indeed, both
from the standpoint of good gov
eminent and the highway situation
here, that Governor Ford was
chosen to serve Montana for at least
another term.

THIS is NOT JUSTICE

Now that the election is over,
mere justice requires that Kimmel
and Short either be proven guilty
or not guilty Of non-perfornance Of
duty Ever since the frightful de
feat at Pearl Harbor. those Two men
have carried a load of public dis
grace and condemnation without a
chance to offer their side of the
case in rebuttal. It is now very
doubtful if any damage could be
done the war effort by letting the
facts be known Prior. to the cleo
ton there was strong suspicion
in many minds that the facts Of
this regrettable affair were being
kept under cover for fear of dam
age to political prospects. We boast
of American justice. 1t is not JUS
tice to keep these men under cloud
of guilt. They are urging that they
be placed before a court martial
That is their simple right.

DO NOT KNOW us

Judging from newspaper reports,
the nations of the world are very
much surprised that the United
States could carry on bitter pres
idential campaign in the midst Of
war and keep it so devoid Of vio-
lence and upheaval. That's further
evidence that the rest Of the world
knows little about the real America.
