ABOUT THE SALES TAX

We have heard comments of many kinds since Governor
Ford has proposed a state sales tax "as the only means of reiev-
ing Montanas primary and secondary schools of their financial
difficulties"
For years we have heard arguments pro and con concerning
the sales tax. But there is a good deal more to the question than
the question of the sales tax alone.
We in Montana have been proud of our schools. But, in
recent years, many of our best teachers have been attracted
to n~eighboring states by higher salaries and better equipment
and plant than most Montana schools can offer. That does not
mean that we still do not have many fine teachers in the state.
Our problem is no different from many other common
wealths. Certain powerful groups are proposing as a panacea for
the nations school problems the payment of federal funds to
our schools and school districts. If this happens. we can be sure
that we will, in large measure, lose local control of our schools.
The hand that holds the purse strings is the hand that dominates.
1t is not stretching things to predict that such a policy would
see our school people hired and fired in Washington.
The alternative is clear. If we want to maintain our hold on
schools, we here at home must take the steps and, if neces-
make the sacrifices to insure their Improvement. Local
means local financing. And that is one aspect of the

G. LIS WANT

Having read some gloomy criiques of our World War II
veterans that intimated few of them will be taking advantage
of the &c. l. Bill" educational provisions, it has been a pleasant
surprise the last few weeks to note that just the opposite is
the case in our experience.
we have talked with any number of young veterans, and some
who are not so young, who plan to resume college work, or take
it up for the first time. And their statements, boiled down. would
sound something like this: I'D be foolish if 1 didn't take the
to get an education"
1t is an ill wind that blows nobody good. The war was a
bad thing, but at least, as a result of it, many young men will
gam the advantages that additional training should bring them.
We know some who might have found it difficult. if not limos
sible. to get that training otherwise.
And these veterans are serious about it. War and the serv-
ices have brought them to quick maturity; they should get more
out of college than the average freshman of pre-war wears Moro
power to the logic that has made them conclude that extra train
ing Is advantageous in the battle of life, just as it is in war.

One year of compulsory military
training would help more of our
young men break away from the re-
pressions of nom rule.
Indications are that there is more
excessive mothering among the well
to-do classes. Fathers are away from
home so much of the time, and so
preoccupied~ with business affairs,
that they tend 10 neglect their sons
and wives, whereupon the wives be-
gin to spoil the sons. In addition, the
well-to-do woman may have nothing
TO do TO amuse herself, so her son
suffers from her too good intentions.
DR.. William A. Nelson, while
president Of Smith College, created a
furore when he said: Il used to think
mother love was one of the most won
derful things in the world, but now
/ believe that In nine cases out of
ten it is self-love." Mental specialists
will agree with him.
And DR.. Clarence o. Cheney, of
the Hudson RiverS State Hospital,
gives this advice:
Some mothers, particularly those
unhappily married, bestow their
whole affection on their boy. They
shield him from hard knocks, and
have him remain their baby.
Our advice TO parents is: Help
and guide your boy to grow away
from you. If increasing signs of in
dependence sadden you, keep in mind
the thought that ii is only by their
independence that your children can
be successful. Do not sacrifice them
by selfindulgence."
