The people's voice. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1939-1969, 1945-02-16

would nave to be made by 81
Representatives instead of 10 az
the rules now provide.
While judging by the general char
acter of the entire Yellowstone dele
cation, too many of the common PEG
pie of that county failed to vote il
the last election or it could not have
been of the ultra-reactionary type
which it now is, it appears possible
that some of these people must have
walked up and are pouring it on the
individual representatives or they are
afraid that the record of their reac
tionary attitudes will reach their peo
pie and they are becoming disturbed
No other reason appears plausible
inasmuch as the motion was too
STRONG" for even many of the ordi'
nary reactionaries to stomach and ii
was opposed by that staunch defender
of privilege, the majority floor leader
Bricker, and was defeated.
In this connection, we invite the
people of Yellowstone and all other
counties to note how their representa-
tives are voting on important issues.
HOW THEY VOTED

weekly amounts paid the unemployed
