Dear Editor:
I am enclosing check for renewal
of my subscription to The Peoples
| Voice.
Your paper is doing a pretty good
| job, excepting, that at times it seems
that your criticisms are leaning to
one side too much.
And like the old saying; "the bad
lives on forever, and the good is
buried with the grave" or words to
that effect.
Some would even tell you to go to
the "Hot Spot" with your paper, but
that's stupid.
The great fault with the struggling
masses has always been that they
dulled their own sharpest instruments.
| may, perhaps, overlooked your
comments in the Voice" on the ac-
lions of the appropriations committee
in Washington, D. G. when the appor-
tioning of federal monies for the
states was the business of the COM
mittee. Montana, it appears, was only
represented by one of its spokesman,
and Sen. B. K Wheeler was that man.
And it seems that Senator Wheeler,
with all the negligence attributed to
him, done most remarkable job in
presenting Montana's needs to that
committee, as invariably, by his argu-
ments he was able to raise the COM
mittee's figure in favor of Montana
If you have overlooked this matter
it would be quite appropriate to make
discovery of this little item, and which
may be of interest to us ill-informed
Montanans, and then give the devil
his just dues.
AS a railroader I have not forgotten
the little" help B. K Wheeler was
to us in recovering about $250,000,000
in wage reductions to help the NEEDY"
ones to weather the depression
brought on by financial fenaggling.
And perhaps, others may be thankful
for his Intervention in the past-time
Hanging Bees" that were becoming
so popular during our "Hysteria No.
l." Oh, yes, there are other things
too but like the good things, they
are buried.
No, am not an idol worshipper, Just
the opposite, lot of our idolatry is
due for a rude awakening it seems.
Further, l am not angry at you at
all, just exercising one of the -Four
Freedoms" that my ears are DINING
with from the daily chatter of the
''raddio,' and reading of the Gree
Press" am just trying my hand at it
to see how it works.
Sincerely yours,
JOHN F. MAS.

/ don't think B. K Wheeler or Sam
Ford are very smart but they have
been getting elected because the peo-
pie that vote for them are dumber
han B. K. and Sam is to their own
but as the old sayings go
ong runs the fox but he gets caught
1t last but if the people don't wake
Up right now and put all those fas-
lists, naziists and notsies out of Of
ice we will be in worse shape than
We are now and God knows we are in
| hell of shape right now. I think
We should use the recall on some of
