LARGER FARMS,
FEWER FARMERS

The prices received at the auction sale
Of cattle at the stock yards last Monday
should cause some contemplation and
comparisons. Prices at this sale for good
stock ranged from $14.00 to $1,000. That
simply means that a 1,400-pound steer
brought $4,000. Two hundred dollars
for a steer, just think of it.. No wonder
the people are paying fancy prices in the
butcher shops and no wonder the stock
men and sheepmen are lOlling in wealth.
Of course, for many years the rancher and
farmer got little or nothing for their pro
duce, worked like slaves from morning
till night. There is a trend throughout
the entire nation for the elimination Of the
small farmer and the concentration Of
land into big outfits. Not all of the large
farms are owned by an individual, espe-
cially an individual who is actually work
ing them. For instance, when the govern
ment was paying farmers for letting land
lie idle, the Metropolitan Life Insurance
Company in one year received the largest
amount and the Metropolitan Life lnslr-
ance Company certainly is not a farmer.
Two or three days ago an announcement
by Leo w. Massman, farm ems super
visor in the first Montana district, showed
that increases we're noted in the size Of
farms for 1915 compared with other years.
A number of counties were mentioned, in
Guiding Powell, Granite, Lake, Mineral,
Sanders and Lincoln. This condition in
dicates that many small farmers are Civ
ing up their farms and either going into
the labor market or leaving the state OF
Montana. 1t indicates further that land
is gradually grayitating into the hands Of
big individual owners or corporations or
companies. 1t isn't a healthy condition.
1t isn't uncommon in Montana for an in
diyidual or a company to own or control
30 to 80 to 100 thousand acres and in some
cases much more.

THE MONTANA LABOR NEWS
AND WAGES

The wage situation in the United States
is not to the liking of labor. While the
War Labor Board holds fast to its con-
trolls, there is a trend which tends to
lower wages throughout the United
States. This trend arrives naturally out
of the war situation. Due to many cut
backs, many of the workers are being
taken out Of wal work with high wages,
and sent back to private industry at lower
wages. This gives the worker less money
in his pay envelope. At the same time
there is a growing unemployment list,
the workers of which may collect Social
Security benefits if they are lucky enough
to pass the technical requirements set up
by the states. These Social Security
benefits are in no wise enough money to
make up for lost wages.
This means a downward trend in pur-
chasing power which is satisfactory to
most employers but will cheat them out
Of the sale of goods when the goods go
on the market because the workers will
not have the money to buy the goods.
Here is the making of a depression, we
hope a minor depression, but a depression,
which always means initiation. If bust
ness maintains prices on goods at a high
level, the depression may grow quite
serious.
Certainly every worker should collect
his unemployment benefits when he is out
of work, and he should try not to use up
his savings accumulated during the war
period, to meet living expenses. Labor
will resist and should resist wage CUTS

N O

Why is it that the District of Columbia,
that is, the city of Washington, has one
physician for every $50 of the population?
why is it that the State of New York has
one physician for every 461 of the popu-
lation, and Massachusetts has one physi-
clan to every 528 Of the population? Why
is it that Mississippi has one physician
for every 1896 Of the population, Ala
bama one physician for every 1850 OF the
population? These are curious facts.
We believe that the District Of Column
bia has this tremendous O%yer-balance Of
physicians because the District Of Column
bia is a city where the average income is
low but constant and regular. Govern
ment workers may not get as good pay as
factory workers on the whole, but they
get sure pay and this enables them to sup
port this overload Of physicians, that Is,
an overload compared with other states.
If is a truism that medical care depends
upon income. Poor people cannot pay for
doctors and they die more easily and
regularly than rich people. This is the
gist Of the struggle now going on in this
country for medical care. Physicians are
opposing the Wagner-Murray-Dingel
Bill and labor is supporting it.

VOTE ON RESOLUTION
POSTPONED

The Maryland Senate vote on the
Resolution seeking a Constitutional
Convention to limit the Federal tax
ng power in peacetime, has been
postponed. The postponement was al
the request of those opposed to the
dissolution to permit public hearing
at which, it is announced, Congress
man Wright Patman of Texas, will
urge our General Assembly to defeat
lie Resolution The Senate was to
vote ON the Resolution on Wedne5-
day, February %, but that was post
poned until after March 6, when at
10 A. M, the hearing was to- be held
in the State House.
The opposition stems from BELIEF
IN some quarters that the Resolution
before the General Assembly would
place a ceiling on Federal income, ir-
hertiance and gift taxes without re-
gard to the actual revenue needs OF
the nation or the effect of such a
ceiling on other tax sources.
These fears are denied by those
who want some limit placed on the
power of Congress to tax in peace
time.
Senator Joseph M. George, discuss
ing the Resolution, said. According
to Article of the Federal Constitu-
ton, all this Resolution does in eff
feet is ask Congress to convoke a
Constitutional Convention. When 80
Estates have made this request, then
Congress must call the Convention
and the Convention will. in its best
judgment, formulate an amendment
that it thinks will meet the necessi-
ties of government financing and give
the citizen protection from confisca-
tory taxation.
Although II states have passed
resolutions asking for 259o limit
on income, inheritance and gift tax
ees, that figure is not binding ON the
Convention. 1t may raise or lower
that amount, and it may make CELL
ing for more or fewer categories, :"
the Senator continued. 1.-THE Conven-
ton cannot be expected for several
years after the war and, in the light
of conditions existing at that time,
it will exercise its best judgment.
And then. when the amendment is
formulated, it must be ratified by y
of the states before it becomes law"
The Senator said he was surprised
at the vigor of the opposition to
what is, in effect, preliminary move
to place the matter of peacetime tax
limitation formally before the states
for their ratification or rejection.

Lock Your Car

Lock your car" warns the Key
stone Automobile Club, in bulletin
declaring that the increase in auto
mobile thefts is, in some degree at
least, attributable to the ease with
which thieves can get away with mo-
tor vehicles.
In a high percentage of thefts re-
ported to police along the Eastern
Seaboard, it developed that motorists
not only failed to lock car doors, but
actually invited theft by leaving keys
in the ignition.
Some thefts are the work of youth
full joy-riders, who seize the opportu-
nifty of an unlocked car borrowing"
the vehicle for ride, but others are
the operation of professional thieves
who do an interstate business in stol-
en- automobiles. From members of a
thieving ring recently cornered by
police, the methods and extent of the
ring were revealed. The plan has
been to steal cars in one state, take
them into another where motor and
serial numbers were changed and
bodies reprinted. Next step was to
buy $25 or $50 jalopies and obtain
title certificates. After junking the
jalopies, the certificates would be al
tered to correspond with descriptions
of the stolen cars. Finally, the stolen
cars would be sold in Southern and
Western black markets.
And so, Mr.. Car Owner, it's up to
you to protect your property by
NEVER leaving keys in the ignition
and ALWAYS locking the doors
when your car is parked.
