An open forum discussion on the
location of the proposed Commu-
nity building was held yesterday
bv members of The Exchange CLUB
at their regular weekly luncheon.
A. c. Nichols, city manager out
lined some of the contemplated
plans of the city government with
reference to the location Of the new
building.
paramount is the wish of city
government to do what the MAORI
tv of the citizens want and that
which will be for their best serv-
ice." We believe the Marine Hos
pital site containing IS acres now
owned by the city, offers the best
location for the type building pro-
posed because first; it offers am
pie space for construction.
Next there would be ample park
ing space at all times, and with
present mode of transportation this
is important" Nichols said. 'The
character of building now being
considered would incorporate rec
reational facilities along with the
major plan for an auditorium seat
ing $500 to 1900 people, he con-
tinued.
This location offers excellent
advantage as to geographical To-
cation and central access" the
manager said.
1.-THE Marine Hospital site lends
itself to proper landscaping and
setting for a building of this type
too" he said. "Suitable and ample
street development would be effect
ed in the Marine Hospital area. -
Nichols concluded.
Club members taking part in the
discussions were J. B. Edwards,
who said he thinks the Marine Hos
pital site is the best place for the
community building.
He also asked if it were the city
plans to develop lighted athletic
field on the site.
DR.. Paul Black asked what 9th
er specific sites are availa BILE, to
which a reply was made by R.
Stewart who observed that several
merchants have spoken favorably
for downtown locatio This in
order to make available certain

MONTANA LIGHTS
EXEMPT, MAY FLICKER

Five areas in the nation, including
the Pacific northwest most of Texas
and Montana, have been declared ex-
empt from the provisions of Utilities
Order U-9, which prohibits use of cleo
tricity for seven specified types of
lighting, announced Oscar A. Baarson,
Helena WPB district manager.
All of the area exemptions are for
five months, until June 80, 1916. Be
fore that time, it was announced, the
anticipated fuel use of utilities in the
exempt areas would be rechecked to
determine whether any savings in
scarce fuels can be made in the last
half of 1915 by turning out the I'M
necessary lighting. The exempted
areas were established under provi-
sions of the order which authorizes
WPB to exempt areas where it is de-
termined that the brownout will not
reduce the consumption of coal or
other scarce fuels in accordance with
the purpose of the order.

ELIMINATION OF

PLAN OF c.E.D.

Charging the Committee for ECO

transmission belt for the National AS
ISOLATION of Manufacturers, THE La
Dor ANALYST, published in New
York by Labor Institute of America,
declared in its January 31st issue that
the National Association of Manufac-
turers, the National Industrial Con-
ference Board and the Committee for
Economic Development may be re-
garded as one big family so far as
their direction is concerned.
This charge is supported by an
extensive Recommendation revealing
links between CED officials and the
NAM and NICB, as we'll as with sub
versive organizations.
The article states that it fayors
more cooperation, rather than less,
between unions and the CED, but it
declares that the NAM demand for
the elimination of corporation taxes
is the core of the CED's program, and
from this the unions must emphatic
ally disassociate themselves.

WHOM DO POLL-TAxERS
"REPRESENT"

The official figures of votes cast
in the 1914 elections are now avail
able. They yield interesting studies
in representation" by poll tax repre-
sentatives and senators. Here are
some preliminary statistics.
Seventy-nine Representatives in
poll tax states were elected in cleo
tions in which the TOTAL NUMBER
OF VOTES CAST was 1928, $50, or an
average of 1926 votes per representa-
tive
In the entire country, the average
number of votes cast for representa-
tive was 103,914. Excluding the eight
poll tax states, the average vote was
122,116.
Four senators were elected in poll
tax states in 1914. The total vote
cast for them was S36,499, or an aver
age of 209,125 per poll tax senator
A total of 80 senators was elected
throughout the country. The overall
average number of votes cast in each
senatorial election was 1,0S1,98
Twenty-eight senators were elected
from non-poll tax states. The aver
age number of votes cast in each of
their elections was 1,249,057.
NOTE: A poll-taxer's vote is equal
in effect in senate or house to the
vote of non-poll taxer, on matters
the whole nation.
