Most Of Cases Discovered In

HOMEWORK Continues

The Montana tuberculosis associ-
alton has, within the past year, TAX
en- a long forward step toward the
eradication of tuberculosis. Since
the purchase in 1916 of the mobile
X-ray unit for mass X-rays, the
finding of the dangerous unknown
cases of tuberculosis is progressing
most satisfactorily, states Mrs. R.
J.. Rosselot, Laurel chairman of the
annual tuberculosis seal sale.
In 1916 the tuberculin test was
given in SO counties, with a total
Of 24LO11 tests, 800 X-rays were
taken, and 1873 active cases of tuber-
culosis were found. The majority
of these cases we're hospitalized.
New cases reported during the year
totalled 800, with the ever-present
possibility of scores of other cases
not reported.
Even with this gratifying pro-
gress, tuberculosis remain a major
public health problem. 1t is a com
municable disease, one which can
be prevented, yet it still costs the
lives of 144 persons a day in the
United States and kills more young
people between Is and 35 than any
other disease.
The efforts of the Montana
tuberculosis association will as time
goes on be directed toward the uiti-
mate eradication of the disease, not
merely it's control. The state as

The amazing popularity of
"White Christmas" as a yuletide
song reached its peak last year
when a poll conducted to establish
the favorite carol of servicemen
revealed that % per cent of the
votes went to this early war song
written especially for the occasion
by Irving Berlin, graduate of Tin
Pan Alley.
The birth of the song was entire
ly by accident despite rumors to
the contrary which attribute its
conception to the war. Actually, it
was composed in 1910. A Hollywood
studio had an idea for a motion pic
ture to be called Holiday Inn,"
co-starring Fred Astaire and Bing
Crosby. The theme of the picture
was based on the holidays of the
year and a song was needed to
represent each holiday. Irving Ber-
lin was contracted for the compost
tions. The picture, released in 1912,
was synonymous with our second
wartime Christmas, and in that
year the song sold one million
copies in four months. Although
nothing is done on the part of the
publishers to exploit the song, it
automatically rings the register
each year as the holiday season
approaches. Berlin calls it his ia
vorite song, with the exception of
his "God Bless America" written
during World War I. cts difficult
to predict a songs FUTURE" says
Berlin, "but judging from its past,
I would say "White Christmas" has
a very good chance of becoming a
permanent song along with other
Christmas carols"

why Republicans should vote that
way, every reason why their leader
should lead them in that direction.
But the partisanship of Joe
Martins Republicans has not been
based on any such fundamental
difference of opinion On the
record, it has been purely political
and reckless of any other considera-
ton.
Mcmahon Bill Stripped.
Last Saturday a bright-eyed re-
porter for washington newspaper,
covering the proceedings of the
House, wrote the following;
"A triumphant bloc of House Re
publicans yesterday continued to
strip the civilian control provisions
from the Mcmahon atomic energy
bill, and prepared for an attempt
today to defeat the bill entirely"
Triumphant over whom or over
what? 1t could only be triumphant
over the Democratic administratio ton,
which favored the Mcmahon bill and
which had succeeded in the Senate,
with the aid of Republican Senate
leaders, in keeping party politics
out of its discussion. In contrast
to the House. the Senate passed the
Mcmahon bill by unanimous vote.
The bill was written by a special
Senate committee, which had spent
many months listening to witnesses
and studying every foreseeable con-
tingency, foreign or domestic, that
might arise in connection with
atomic power. The House amend
ments originated largely in the
Military Affairs Committee, whose
chairman, Andrew j. May, at least
had a good many other things on
his mind during the brief time the
bill was being worked over.
Aided by Democrats.
The attempt to defeat the bill
entirely was not successful. A mo-
ton by Representative Dewey
Short, Republican. of Missouri, one
of Martins active lieutenants, to
reconunit it-meaning to send it
back to Mays committee to die
was DedIcH Dy vote Ql lS0 10 14o.
But in this vote 1913 Republicans
followed the negative leadership of
the minority leader. Fortunately
43 Republicans deserted him and
only 18 antiadministration Demo-
Gratis came to his assistance
But it can be seen that Minority
Leader Martin was in there trying,
doing his best to prevent the enact
ment Of good bill for the control
of atomic energy Which is the
key to the whole Republican
strategy under his leadership. 1t
can be summed up in a phrase,
GOOD bills shall not pass" Clearly
1t is his opinion that passage of
any good bill will somehow benefit
the Democratic administration and
that it is his duty therefore to
render this session of Congress as
nearly futile as possible. Discon-
tented voters usually vote against
the party in office, according to
this way of thinking, so the smart
thing to do is to arouse discontent.
