Dismissal of Rogge
Stirs Cascade
County Flu.

1. We, as informed, patriotic citi-
ems consider it shameful thing for
the Department of Justice to shield
the enemies of the United States and
bow to political pressure with its re-
moval of William Powers Maloney as
prosecutor of the sedition trials.
2. We consider that the trials have
now been sabotaged anew by the re-
moval of the second prosecutor, John
Rogge.
g. The suppression of Mr. Rogge's
report on "Fascism in the United
States" is undermining our confidence
in the administration and the Justice
Department and is further shielding
certain well known pro-fascists in the
United States.
Therefore Be 1t Resolved: That the
following steps be taken Immediately
by the President and the Department
of Justice:
First: Reinstatement of Mr.. Rogge
as prosecutor of the sedition trials.
Second: Resumption of the trials
and bringing to justice of the defend
ants.
Third: Full publication of Mr..
Rogge's suppressed report, with all the
names and implications contained

American Power G. Light owns "a per
cent of the common stock of the COM
pany. Recent hearings before the Fed
trail Power Commission have brought
to light some interesting details con-
corning the establishment of this COM
pany-which controls, along with the
Anaconda Copper company, seven of
Montana's fourteen daily newspapers
These seven papers, naturally, are
among the most bitter opponents of an
MVA in the entire river valley.
A Phoney Outfit
The Federal Power Commission, in
vestigating alleged watering" of the
companys capital structure, ordered
Montana Power to squeeze some $780,
100000 worth of illegitimate assets
out of its books. This, by the way,
from total reported gross assets of

than one-third of Montana Powers

And they should laugh at it. We in
the Missouri Valley should laugh at it,,
too, despite the fact that the reaction
airy governors of the Missouri Valley
states have come out against an
MVA. Their action indicates merely
that they do not represent the true
wishes of the people of their states
for the Gallup Poll has shown that the
people of the Missouri Valley want an
MVA by a majority of three to one.
They will get it, too, in time. But in
the meantime, let's take look at some
of the real "superstates" that now ex-
list and operate in the Valley: the pri-
vate power companies.
Since the Montana Power company
is perhaps the most conspicuous ex-
ample of an organization that is "auto-
cratic and rides roughshod over the
rights of the people" the Leader will
begin with that one.
The Montana Power company is
fond of referring to itself as COM
many in which thousands" of Mon
tana people have an interest. Actually
the company is owned by American

Lumber Workers In
Helena Receive
Charter

Local Union No. 2S70 is the Charter
issued to Montana's newest Lumber
and Sawmill Workers Local Union at
Helena, Montana. The Charter was in
stalled by Allie Cole, Brotherhood of
Carpenters and Joiners' representa-
tive on Nov. 7, and officers of the new
local elected as follows: President,
Vernon Miller; Vice President, James
Wines Financial Secretary, Harry
Peck; Treasurer, Paul Colvin; Record
ing Secretary, Agnes Turner; Warden,
Anton Murgel; Conductor-Shop Stew
ard, Ebert Bush; Three Year Trustee,
Leonard Pohlmeier; Two Year Trus-
tee, Walter Buor; One Year Trustee,
Elmer Plettenberg; and Shop Com
mittee, Ebert Bush, James Wines and
Lucille Dunn.
One of the first official acts of the
meeting was to establish SIS initia-
ton fee, which it is understood will be
Increased in the near future. Members
of the Local 2870 at the present time
consist of the employees of the Foley
Mill and Cabinet Works, but it is
planned to take in employees of other
establishments in the near future, and
the wage scale and working agreement
at the Foley Co., have been sent to
the International Headquarters of the
Brotherhood of Carpenters and Join
ers at Indianapolis for approval in
order that the Carpenters Union
Label, which has been applied for,
may be issued to Local 2S70. The
Agreement has all the desirable fea-
lures common in the Lumber Industry
with some added improvements taken
from the working Agreement of Jour
neymans Local 1853, which previously
had an agreement covering Journey
men Carpenters in the Foley plant.
The Agreement of Local 2870 includes
all employees of the company, and
new employees have period of seven
days in which to work before becom-
ing members OF the Union. Full credit
for the organizing of Local 2870 and
the negotiating of the Agreement goes
to Brotherhood Representative Allie
Cole and to Jack Hackman, business
agent of Carpenters Local 1873 at Hell
ena, who furnished him valuable as
sistance.
Although Local 2S70 is one-hundred
twenty miles from its nearest Lumber
and Sawmill Workers Local Union,
the attitude of its members and the CO.
operation expected from Local 153 in
sures a successful Lumber and Saw
mill Workers Local in Montana's
capital city.

CLOS Murray Warns
Another Bust To
Come Soon

Atlantic City.-A charge that there
is not an honest economist in America
who doesn't predict bust to follow
our present boom" was made Nov. IS
before the opening session of the CLIO
convention by Pres. Philip Murray
Reporting on the national economy,
Murray said ut is purely a question
Of when the bust will occur" with esti-
mates ranging from the third quarter
of 1947 to the early part of 194S.
at is generally agreed that the bust
will occur mainly for two reasons: l.
the level of consumer income is not
sufficient to support the high demand
and high production; 2-prices are at
inflated levels. At present prices are
higher than at any other period in our
history and have reached this point
because of the greedy desire for ex-
orbitant profits by Big Business"
Murray showed that between April,
1915 and August 1916, workers week
ly wages in manufacturing industries
dropped $40 while BIS figures show
consumer prices have risen 1870 in the
same period.
Therefore, August 1916 earnings of
S44.61 will purchase only S344O worth
of merchandise in terms of April 1915
dollars. This indicates a drop of 1910
in the purchasing power income of
manufacturing workers.
THE total monthly payroll Of manu-
featuring industries has also declined"
he said, dropping 229o in the period,
but when corrected for the rise in
prices I'VE find that the drop in pay
rolls has been 81 per cent"
Not only workers weekly
wages in manufacturing industries
have declined, but the total national

ference to disavow any intention OF
not intend to respond to the demands
of the p NJ A. officials, whose revolt
he said, smacks of "disloyalty." How
ever, he said he did not plan to dis
eipline them.
The moving spirit back of Anderson,
the revolving farmers assert, was Rob
ert II. Shields, who until a week ago
was p. NJ A. administrator, but re
signed to accept $4,000 job as lob
byist for the Beet Sugar Association
When the state directors and com
mitteemen fired their blast, they
claimed Shields was virtually in the
employ of the beet sugar people His
immediate resignation was demanded
along with that of David Davidson, as
sistant 7. M. A. administrator in
charge Of field work, and C. B.
Hodges, Davidson's assistant.
Background of Controversy
Now for a little of the background
of the controversy, that the reader
may have clearer understanding of
what the shooting is about.
The p. NJ. A. is in charge of all the
various programs of the Department
of Agriculture, except research. 1t adj
ministers what remains of the Triple
A, which promotes crop production
and soil conservation; the Farm Sc
curity Administration, which helps
propertyless farmers to become farm
owners, and number of other pro-
grams.
Administration is highly decentra-
lized, starting with county units that
fan out to the individual farms, and
is in control of farmers themselves.
The grass roots" committee sys-
TEN. it is charged, has already been
cut to a skeleton" basis by sharp
reduction in funds and personnel.
The Anderson plan abolishes the
regional and county offices of what
was formerly the Triple A. In their
place, four major groupings will be
established, centralized at Washing
ton, and under these will be set up II
commodity" branches.
These branches, according to farm
ers, will convert programs designed
to assist farmers and the general pub
lie into programs to promote the in
terests of processors-an professors
are now big Business" with plenty
of money to hire influential lobbyists
and publicity men.
