Producer Unit Urged
To Back Skilled Labor
Training Of Veterans

Coordination of vast skilled
labor training program with reha-
bilitation and educational programs
of the CT Bill of Rights was recon-
mended yesterday to the Producers
Council, national association of
leading material and equipment
manufacturers, by Thomas j.
Sweeney, special representative of
the Veterans Administration loan
guarantee service.
Speaking at the monthly luncheon
of. the Washington chapter of the
council at the Mayfiower Hotel, Mr.
Sweeney cited a lack of skilled la
Dor and asserted industries, manu-
facturers and producers are "anx-
ious to prepare a manpower stock
pile of trained artisans"
your program for apprenticeship
training will not only be directly
beneficial to the firms and manu-
facturers you represent" he de-
clared, but it will assist the veteran
in obtaining a livelihood through
stable employment. This would in
directly insure his obtaining loan
for the purposes provided in the
act, as amended"
Mr.. Sweeney outlined plan soon
to be put into effect by the Veter-
ans Administration that would
streamline procedures for returning
servicemen to obtain loans for
homes, farming or business pur-
poses.
Some forms have been elimi-
mated" Mr.. Sweeney said. Others,
previously lengthy and involving
considerable time in preparation,
have been revised and shortened"
The plan will eliminate the GER
tificate of eligibility, dispense with
the loan guarantee certificate and
reduce the application form to one
sheet, he said.
Altogether six steps are all that
will be involved in obtaining loan.
Mr.. Sweeney explained. Within "a

hours Of receipt Of the loan appli-
cation by the agency involved 1t
will either be approved or denied
and the applicant notified, he said.
Mr.. Sweeney said that as Of De-
cember /, 46.446 applications have
been filed and approved. OF these
42,016 have been approved for the
purchase of homes, 1880 for farm
ing purposes and $500 for business
purposes,

Forest Discussion
And The Service

We can't discuss the forest stu
alton month after month, without
expecting our readers to wonder
about certain phases of administra-
ton. For instance, do we have in
formed persons, both in private in
dustry and government, who APP
proach this problem with objective
minds? Are these people using their
knowledge to present facts to the
people in such way, that they are
understood? And if SO, why haven't
more people become aware of them,
and SO develop an active interest in
this country's forests?
Let's consider the Forest Service,
and ask some questions about them.
We know they are government
agency, and that their responsible
ties, as outlined by law, restrict
them to management Of the Nation
al forests, plus cooperative advice
to private owners and state agen-
cies. But is the public aware Of
this? Is it under the impression that
all forests are under their juris-
diction? We think this is the gen.
eral impression. Why hasn't the
forest service corrected this impress

FOREMAN GEO. RIPLEY
EXPRESSES GRATITUDE

Wish IN behalf of the Depart
ment of Fish and Game to extend
to the firms and persons who SO
generously furnished their time and
material for the construction Of a
cold storage plant at the site of
the State Fish Hatchery.
It is building that will take care
OF twice the present output Of the
Hatchery and is a credit to the de-
partments plant. 1t would be no.
tlceable in plant in a community
that had several times the popula-
ton of Libby.
Those that deserved especial cred
1t are the foremen who gave their
entire time and knowledge to the
construction, the men who SO will
ingly furnished the blue prints and
estimates Of the cost and went out
and bought these materials for the
giant. also those -l4hn resnqpdqtal
work, trucks and gravel. All in all
we have d Sportsman's club and
business mems association to be
proud OF. In fact, | as foreman Of
the Hatchery, cannot express my
thanks to one and all that have
been SO generous on this project.

MCCAIN TO HEAD MONTANA
UNIVERSITY

Other highlight of the capitol
week was the selection of 1t. Cmdr.
James A. Mccain, USNR, Wash
ington, D. c., as president of Mon
tana state university in Missoula,
succeeding DR.. E. O. Melby who
resigned, effective Sept. |, to be-
come dean at New York Univer-
sity,
The State Board of Education
had little trouble deciding on Mel
by's successor, but put the selec-
ton Of chancellor for the greater
Montana university system in the
hands of special communicative
same that chose the candidates for
the presidency.
Seven out-of-state men appeared
before the board during its two
day meeting, but it was decided to
talk to few more before a choice
was made. Mccain did not appear
at the meeting, but met with the
board in July when president
for the normal school in Billings
was named.
Mccain, 38, native of York S. c.,
will be the youngest university
head in the state For the past two
years he has been in charge Of the
Nays classification program. He
expects to assume his duties Oct.
! after his discharge from the Navy

Mail Order" Strike
Vote Under Woy

Beginning August IS, National
Labor Relations Board strike-vote
ballots, under the terms of the War
Labor Disputes (Smith-C onnally)
Act, began to appear in the vari-
Gus areas of the Montana Lumber
Industry
Representatives Of the Lumber
and SaWmill Workers Union state
that the request for a strike vote is
based upon long standing wage is
sues which have been before the
War Labor Boards West Coast
Lumber Commission for the past
three years without any satisfactory
solution being reached by the Com
mission. The principal complaint so
far as the Montana area is con-
cerned is that the WLB established
discriminatory wage differential
in this area which did not exist
prior to the existence of the WLB.
The ballots were to be mailed in
by the individuals concerned by
August 20, and will be counted by
the Seattle Regional office. the re-
suits being announced after Sep
TENDER 5.

COMMANDER PRAISES
STANLEY PERSON

Inc following letter was received
by Mrs. Agnes Person from thu
commanding officer of the u. S. S
| Stormes (DD-780) on which hel
husband, Stanley met his death.
Dear Mrs. Person.
On behalf of the officers anc
crew of the Stromes, l wish to ex.
tend to you our deepest sympathy
IN the loss of your husband | real
lie fully that the delay in receiv-
ing this letter has been a real hard
ship to you, and l regret very much
the necessity for that delay in cases
of personnel first listed as Miss
ing in action.
Stanley was assigned to the sec
ond division on board where he was
exceedingly we'll liked by all of
his associates-Most of them young
er men. He was always friendly and
cooperative and q thoroughly COM
petent leader in all that he did His
assigned battle station was in the
loading crew of the after twin five
inch gun mount
During an action against enemy
aircraft off Okinawa on Is May,
suicide hier flew his plane into the
ship and released bomb. The re-
sulting explosion killed and wound
ed the group of men in SANKEY'S
vicinity. SANKEY'S body was not re-
covered and it is certain that he was
instantly killed. His few personal
belongings have been sent to you,
and should arrive in due time.
We, all OF US, mourn the loss of
true shipmate and friend who gave
everything that he had without
question and in the best tradition
Of the naval service.
Sincerely yours,
w. N. Wylie,
Commander U. S. Navy,
