Mr.. Sam G. Ford
Office of the Governor
Helena, Montana
Dear Sam:
This letter is written with more
sorrow than anger. Remember, the
story in 1.-THE Book of Old" of the
father weeping for "the prodigal SON.!
Well do I recall with pleasure, the
days in Helena, when first you were
| in the District Attorneys office as
assistant and Carl Tegnell was stenog-
rapher there and the writer would
drop in there, from day to day. adj
mired you then for your integrity,
your moral attitude, and clean living.
1 yet think your morals and your atti-
tude toward your family is above re-
proach.
In 1910 you were elected by and for
the people of Montana to be the gov
ernor of, and administer the laws of
the sovereign state of Montana, for all
the people. The majority of us
thought, here is staunch son of the
southland, Kentuckian, where a man
kneels to no one other than God and
always faces the enemy.
You, for the first two years, done
a very good job, then what? Some
thing seemed to be drawing you away
from the people. Then in 1914, evil
IDENTIFY you were again elected by the
votes of those same people. But what
for?-Was it to serve for the greatest
good to the greatest number, or was
it to be at the beck and call of the
alien corporations, operating and OBJ
structing in this state, while incorpor-
ated elsewhere, and most of those
alien corporations seem to have the
same inclinations that Hitler had-to
either rule or ruin.
Even before the last election, and
since you have seemed so busy pull
ing their chestnuts out of the fire"
that you have had little time, to de-
vote to state work and to prepare for
the post war period. And may l say
here and now that any thinking per-
son knows that the complete control

JAP'S SURRENDER
ENDS BLOODY
FASCIST MARCH
BY FEDERATED PRESS

| The guns are silenced at last in a
world at peace for the first time in
more than decade.
Fascism has met it's bloody end in
the tiny islands of Japan, from which
just Ia years ago Japanese war lords
sent troops plundering into Manchuria
as the first experimental move in fas-
cism's plan for world conquest.
In the era between those two fate
full dates fascism encircled the globe
and swept humanity into the most
terrible war in history. The cost of
the war in lives and suffering and
destruction is perhaps too great for
the human mind to grasp, but one
simple point has now been pounded
home with all the force of an atomic
bomb.
Fascism anywhere in the world is
a menace to all the world. 1t can
only be wiped out through the joint
action of all peace-loving nations, unit
ed in bedrock friendship.
This simple point sounds like a
pldJ1luuC lOudyJ DuI II was q 6iOc1t
joke just few years back to the
bored diplomats in the League of Ma
lions who listened indifferently to the
cries for help from the victims of ag-
gression.
Japan invaded China-with the help
of American businessmen who eagerly
sold her scrap iron and supplies. In
Germany the nazis came into power
with the boast - Tomorrow the
World! on their Hps-but the leaders
of other nations heard only their cum
ming promise to fight the real enemy,
bolshevism. Ethiopia fell to Musso-
lini's booted blackshirts and then the
axis was ready for it's first important
rehearsal of World War II-Spain.
And here strange phrase was
coined. Premature anti-fascists. They
were the exiles from Germany and
Italy who came to fight fascism in a
foreign land, they were the American
boys in the Abraham Lincoln brigade,
they were the aviators and technicians
and tank experts from the Soviet I'm
ion, they were most of all the brave
Spanish people who starved and bled
and fought their way through war

NOTICE TO ALL UNIONS OF The NV. IN
REGARD TO 'cAMH.P AQUA HOSPITAL"

Sanders Counties was not chosen to
favor this part of the state but be.
cause it was the most desirable hot
well found which was available for
this purpose, and most easily aces
sible to the Northwestern states.
The board bought the Hansen well
and 1876 acres of land surrounding 1t
for $4,000. Its all paid for and clear
title to the site has been obtained,
and the entire Northwest is being
asked to get behind this project in a
united effort to raise money to de-
velop this site along the same lines
as that of Warm Springs, Georgia.
We plan to make it available to any
one at cost that will be within reach
of every purse. This project Is strict
ly a non-profit organization.
Different local unions throughout
the Northwest have already adopted
resolutions to donate one days pay to
the Camp Aqua fund. A great deal
of money has been turned over the
Northwestern council and to the chair
man of the union committee here.
There is also great need for public
ity of this project, as it is one of the
most needed project of race, color, or
creed, will be saved upon acquiring
such an establishment.
The project has been sponsored by
the Montana State Federation of Won
ems Clubs, the State Grange, the State
Business and Professional Women's
Clubs and the Montana State Chiro-
practic association.
The Montana District Council of
Lumber and SawmilI Workers adopt
ed resolution No. l supporting the
Camp Aqua project over year ago
and the Northwestern Council adopt
ed resolution No. 81 at the Mfssoula
convention October 1914.
Plans have already been drawn up
for the sanitarium, and approved, and
the construction of roads to the we'll
has been begun. The pool and land
scaping will be started in the near
future
We hope to make this Camp Aqua
hospital a great deal larger than
Warm Springs, Georgia, so no one
will have to wait for this treatment
il 1t is needed at once. Any further
information you might like to have |
will be gladly furnished by Frank R.

For the Crippled Children
OF the Northwestern States
Who Suffer From Infantile
Paralysis.

The treatment of massage and ma
nipulation in the easy medium OF
natural warm water for victims Of In
fantile paralysis to regain the use OF
their muscles is universally recog-
nized. President Roosevelt was suf
ferer from this dreadful disease and
he was greatly benefited by this treat
ment. Through him, Warm Springs,
Georgia has been greatly publicized,
with the result that an unfortunate
condition has developed, namely, in
adequate Accommodations for those who
apply. Recent reports indicate several
thousand applicants waiting for admit
lance and consequently, although
much money has been sent from our
northern states, not one of Montana's
$500 or more crippled children have
been able to gain admittance. The
same is true, no doubt, of all the rest
of this group. Then too the expense
and distance involved make it major
problem, while if adequate facilities
were made available close to home,
how easy and beneficial it would be,
for both children and families com
bined
Knowing that Montana has several
hot wells and springs equally as good
or better than the one at Warm
Springs, the Lake County Federation
of Women's Clubs started movement
several years ago to obtain facilities
whereby our own crippled children
could have the same opportunity for
recovery as those who are privileged
to go to Warm Springs. lis purpose
is to provide place for treatment of
children where the benefits
of exercise in natural warm water can
be provided.
In 1885 a bill was introduced and
passed by both houses of our legisla-
ture appropriating $4,000 for this
project, but the bill was vetoed. In
1910 Camp Aqua was incorporated I'M
der the Montana state laws and a
board of five directors elected to
the business of the corpora
ton.
Different sites had been under con-
5ideration by the Lake County Wom-
ems Clubs, but no money had been
spent on any particular site until May
l941, when the Hansen or Bartlett
we'll near Hot Springs, Montana be-
came available This, as far as we
know, is the best well in the entire
northwest, having an average capac-
ty of more than 100000 gallons of
water per day with a temperature of
over 120 degrees F., and it contains
all the chemical elements and medic
inal qualities usually found in water
used for health purposes. 1t is water
that can be used for irrigation. The
location of the hot well is ideal. Sur
mountains and evergreen
trees make the place beautiful and
The climate is more mild and pleasant
than most of the state. The site,
which is on the border of Lake and

SECOND LABOR
INSTITUTE HELD
IN MISS0ULA

The second Montan Labor Institute
sponsored by the Montana Federation
of Labor, District 81 Of the United
Mine Workers of America, the CLIO
the Farmers Union, the State univer.
sity, and the Workers Education Blu
reau of America, was held In Missoula
on August 2, 3, and a, with a fairly
large attendance of representatives
from each of the groups.
| Panel discussions comprised the
greater part of the program of the
institute, covering various subjects OF
direct interest to all of the participant
ing groups. At times during the SEES
sion, panel discussions were carried
on in two separate rooms. On such
occasions, one panel would be dis
cussing specific problems of labor
while another would be concerned
with more general problems.
OF special interest and somewhat
dubious value to the institute pro-
gram from the viewpoint of many of
those in attendance was participation
in the first days program by r. II.

Anaconda Copper Mining Company
and George Martin, secretary of the
Silver Bow County Employers Asso-
citation and state manager of Associ-
ated Industries in Montana.
A. dinner on the evening of the first
day of the Institute was one of the
pleasant social features of the pro-
gram, the second being a picnic on
Friday evening. Miss Lucia Merrilees
was in charge of the dinner at which
John d. Connors, director of the
Workers Education Bureau of Amer
lea was the featured speaker. Mr..
Connors discussed conditions as he
found them in Great Britain on his
recent visit there. Ernest Atkinson
of the university faculty was toast
master and Mrs. Mildred Stoltz, di-
rector of education of the Montana
Farmers Union led group singing at
the dinner. The picnic arrangements
were made by Joseph Kramer of the
University faculty and managed by
him with the assistance of Baxter
Hathaway, Charles Bloom and Stanley
Teel.

WHEELER HAS RECORD
OF ABSEhTEEISM

In a tabulation of votes in the
United States senate on nine import
ant measures during the period from
June II to July %, made by the Inter-
national Labor Defense, Senator
Wheeler failed to cast a vote on six
of the measures, voted wrong on two
and is credited with right" vote on
the passage of the United Nations
Charter, where his yes" vote should
have been followed by but.
Failure to vote indicates absentee
ism from the senate at crucial time.
1t is assumed that the senator was
"yacationing' and probably building
new political fences when he should
certainly have been present attending
to his duties as representative Of
the state.

REPUBLICANS
GATHER AT A
festive BOARD

Attended by such sterling demo
ton Rankin, a dinner meeting of
master minds of the Republican,
Democratic coalition, headed by the
senior senator from Montana, Bur-
ton K. Wheeler, was held in the
Montana Club in Helena on Wednes-
day of this week. Among other re-
publicrats attending in addition to
three already named, were Barclay
Craghead and Burke Clements.
Gatherings of this nature and with
that kind of attendance are rarely
held for only social reasons. 1t
seems fairly reasonable to assume
that some political discussions may
have taken place, and the fact that
the state chairman of the Democrat
ic party, Lester LobIe of Helena
had not been invited to attend must
Indicate that the senator who is up
for reelection next year and is ex-
pected to make the race under the
Democratic party banner, actually
feels more at home and with and
anticipates more support from the
reactionary Republican element in
the state than from the political or
ganization under whose aegis he
will seek reelection.
The Republican candidate for
election to the United States senate
next year, will probably find himself
directly back of the proverbial eight
ball as far as support from the lead
ership of the party as represented
by Governor Ford, Rankin and Re-
pubicrats like Craighead and Glenn
ents are concerned.
