SkIING'5 ULTRA
 OVER WEEKEND

Afforded the best skiing so far this season, local hickory riders took the hills in quantity over the weekend. Sunday skiers along the Douglas Island trail were estimated at TO persons, young, old and inter- mediate.
 More than a dozen Of the hard fer, including the father Of local skiing Don Moller, made their way to the top of the trail where they ,ghisked about on the upper ridges kicking up the six inches of spark ling light powder snow that made for perfect skiing. Shutter bugs also were out and managed to put sev- eral acres of the local landscape onto several yards of film before the light faded later in the day. Moller, now Sitka resident, took advantage of his Juneau visit to re-acauaint himself with his old mountain haunts and the superior Channel slopes. making one of a party of four that stayed over Sat- urday night at the Upper Cabin.
 Down on the Second Meadow there was powder snow in delir- ,ous abundance also, plus an abun- dance of skiers running the cours- es or fitting at random across the inviting expanses.
 Informal practice time runs, stag ed on the Slalom slope late in the afternoon put the spotlight on Leon Alexander, Buddy Hunter, Jim Rude and Tom Hughes as per- formers who will bear watching during the coming racing season. For the gals, Bonnie Randall was an outstanding performer.
 There were no accidents to mar thes exceptional weekend, even though the trail down to the high way was lightning fast.

Case Bill Passage Is
Criticized By
Bishop

Bishop Bernard J. She'll, auxiliary
Catholic bishop of Chicago, made a
startling speech last week before the
new veterans organization which held
its first convention in Des Moines,
Iowa.
The bishop sharply criticized con-
gress for hastily passing "ill-con-
ceived" anti-labor laws, particularly
the Case bill, and at the same time
neglecting such important reforms as
the Full Employment bill and the 65-
cent Minimum Wage law.
1.-THE time is ripe for making labor
a partner in the management of bust
ness" the bishop declared. IF this is
communistic, let me quote you state
ment of those wel-known communists,
the hierarchy of the Catholic church
in America.
America has nothing to fear from
communism if we have here a social
order that regards man as the begin
ming and the end of life in human
society. People who are well fed, we'll
clothed and well housed are not in
terested in communism"
For few minutes, the bishop
turned his attention to the American
Medical association and scored it for
its opposition to a National Health
Insurance program"

Here's More On The
Benefits of Social
Security Law
BY STEWART THOMAS, Helena

@. How can old-age and survivors in
surance assist elderly workers during
this reconversion period?
A. BY providing monthly benefits
to insured workers IS years and over
who are no longer working in employ
ment covered by the Social Security
act.
@. How does this program work?
A. If you are 65 years of age or old
err insured under old-age and survivors
insurance. and are not now working,
you may be eligible to receive from
the government a monthly check. This
will be based on the wages you have
earned in covered employment since
1887. Your wife may receive an addi-
tional check each month equal to one
half of the amount of your monthly
benefit, when she reaches 65.
Here Are Some Possibilities
If you believe you may soon be out
of work, you will be interested to
know of these possibilities:
Even though you do not plan to re-
tire permanently at this time, you may
draw your old-age and survivors in
surance retirement benefits until you
do go back to work. Drawing benefits
does not in any way prevent you from
returning to work.
If you do go back to work on a job
covered by social security, your bene-
fits land your wifes benefits) will not
be payable for any month in which
you earn more than $14.99.
If you earn more than this amount
in any month, you simply inform the
Social Security Board. Your payment
will be resumed when you notify the
Social Security Board that you have
stopped work again.
Before you can collect monthly ben
efits, you must first file a claim for
them at your local Social Security
Board field office.
Visit the Social Security Board field
office when you reach age 65 even
though you do not intend to quit work

"The American people are confront
ed with the problem of who shall con
troll the government, by what means
and to what ends"
That self-evident fact serves as the
opening sentence of Monograph rs OF
the Temporary National Economic
committee. Entitled Economic Power
and Political Prescriptions, the mon
ograph, one of the most revealing
official documents ever published, was
released March 5, 1871, by Committee
Chairman Sen. Joseph G. O'Mahoney.
Generally suppressed by the press
at the time of its release, Monograph
26 contains 222 pages of still very
vital information. 1t is one of the most
thoroughly documented studies ever
published on the activities of lobby
lists and pressure groups. 1t is
crammed with facts revealing how spe.
cial interests fight progress and use
sacred names and pious slogans to
secure profits and privilege.
Named and described in Monograph
busy day and night in Washington,

DC, fighting labor, knitting OPA, and
attempting to increase profits at the
expense of consumers.
Bankers Overlook Nothing
Monograph 26 makes it abundantly
clear that the largest and most power
full group striving for profits and pow
er is Big Business. 1t discusses at
length the widespread lobbying and
propaganda activities of groups like
the National Association of Manufac-
turers (NAM), the United States
chamber of commerce, the American
Bar association, and the American
Bankers association.
The report discloses that the bank
ers are constantly carrying on ma
tion-wide propaganda campaign
through newspapers, magazines, books,
pamphlets, schools and the radio.
Nothing is overlooked by the bank
ers, says the monograph, ito sell
themselves and their ideas to the pub

Monograph 26, "has never been static.
