MONT. POPULATION BACK
TO PRE-WAR LEVEL

Helena-UP)-Barclay Craighead,
chairman of the state unemploy-
ment compensation commission, be-
lieves that if present trends con-
tinue Montana's population in SIX
months will have climbed back to
the 1910 census figure of around
$4,000
Craighead based his conclusion
on estimates computed from board
records showing that from 3'OO01
to 1000 war industry workers and
some $4,000 veterans have returned
to the state with around 10000
veterans still to be released. He
included a gain of 10000 births over
deaths in the last two years.
The state now has about H.
600 unemployed, $500 of whom are
drawing compensation from the
state fund. He said that of the T.
500 approximately 5000 were vete-
rams and 1900 civilians.

Senators Protect Themselves

Unpatrioc people who think the United States dc
understand economics should be ashamed of themselves
Last month the senate showed that does understand
mics and that knows how to maintain the delicate balance
between individual income and the cost of living.
The senate comprehends the disastrous effect of
OPA restrictions food knows that food prices and all
other prices up, more income is necessary.
&c. acting with the vision for which has become famous
the senate voted to Increase its SO cent before
voted to remove the ceiling prices on food.
After protecting itself against inationary prices
ate then proceeded to vote for initiation.
This the senate that shuddered the nfatonary
proposal to increase unemployment compensation It the
senate that cut the fuemployment bill to pieces 1t is
the senate which opposed minimum IS cents hour
and thinks that public health bill is communistic
The believes be undemocra to repeal
the poll and permit millions of dsfranchsed citizens
ballots The voters might throw them out of office and
deprive them of the SO the senators
just voted themselves
the bill the
all members will be $4,000 per year.
They get 900 although house. while demanding
cut in federal payro reached into the federal treasury by
legislative trick and took extra $4,000 year it's
bers.
The senate also approved pension system members
of although has liberalization the
sions for other citizens.
1t is not communstc infationary to pay handsome
pension to dcredted booted of
office by his disilusioned constituents
But communistic and infationary legislation
protecting low income citizens from unemployment sickness
and discrimination
That's the way the senate figures it.
So passed the amendment by Senator Taft of Ohio to
take the lid off prices just previously to take the lid
off the cost of homes.
By the time election rolls around in November you will be
paying inationary prices food clothing housing if
the senate bill becomes law.
But the senator's pay will have per cent And
you'll be paying that too-Internationa Teamster.

Remember the old saw, "Stcks and stones can break
my bones, but never hur me?" Well, there
names and words and phrases flying around
the Montana elections than in twO-day senatorial
debate. And of them be very damaging.
The trick is old. The most important and effective
business of politicians is to invent and
slogans apply them to the opposition, after making
them odious to the public We Americans are suckers
for the branded word, which is skilfully planted for
the gullibe without knowing what the words really
We like them or hate them without understand
ing their background. Every campaign finds deluge
of words, slogans and phrases, intended either
to build UP candidates prestige or tear down the
opponents
You can remember many of them all through
history-'Tippecanoe and Tyler too" "a Full Dinner
paip' make The World Safe For Democracy" ga
Chicken Every Pot, America First and many
others And after all is said and DONE what do they
mean? Do they solve any problems? Most of them
meaningless and ephemeral a cloud
For example when someone says, "The oPA is out
to wreck private enterprise and initiative" eve
want the good old days back again" We should ask
what is the OPA? What is free enterprise? What
is private enterprise? What exactly the old
days? What is initiative?
Namecaling is probably the most popular and
the time dastardy practice resorted by poll
tcians candidate the political horizon picks
the subject he believes to be the most dstasteful
to the public and pins it his opponent If the Rus
slams acting up and causing bit of trouble with
world affairs this politician tags his opponent a
Communist.
During and following the SpanishAmerican War
the most controversial subject imperialism" so
politicians were labelled "imperiaists" "non-im-
peralists'. In the Civil War it abolition" or
secession" and states rights"
Early in the Roosevelt administration the cry was
President Roosevelt trying to pack the
Supreme court. No, said his supporters That had
been done years ago by the republicans-what the
President proposed to 'unpack" the court
Today we throughout the state billboards BAN
ners and placards emblazoned with slogan "Ameri-
canism vs. Foregnism". Are that
candidates, all of whom know to be patriotic
loyal Americans, is true believer in Democracy and
citizens influenced by foreign ideooges
interested in the disruption of American form
of government? That is the conclusion must draw
from the Technology of the banners and biboards.
We have only check the record and background of
these candidates-that is the only way deter
mine their Royalties To believe that slogan would
stretch the imagination to the breaking point. Our
candidates republicans and democrats alike all

Ter Communist. It's very effective way saving
face, because there isn't an opponent can say at
the time, and when he does get around to answering
the charge, it's too late to be effective
The word propaganda" itself has come to mean the
distribution of sanderous misleading information
full in itself Yet it's original meaning was any writ
ten material or the spoken word designed to promote
public relations.
Another word, pronounced with smear infection
which has come to give people bad taste in their
mouths is "bureaucrat". Webster defines the word as
any employee in government by departments
Are we to call our postmaster bureaucrat? Are
to call our mayor, governor secretary
a bureaucrat? Certainly but not with an entwining
insdious, pump-prming connotation. 1t has become
twisted and distorted in the liberal,
and progressive" and radical. Can we solve our
problems by dismissng all government depart
ments? Nothing could be ridiculous nothing
could be more misleading. The of the labelled
word in political campaigns only tends confuse to
arouse conflicts in peoples minds Watch for it, 1t
has been used, and will be used time and time again.
Therefore as Americans, interested in the well
fare of nation, must remember this In political
campaign, must turn deaf such words
phrases, designed only to confuse dsunite they
have any basis the proof is in the background the
experience, the record of the candidate place
check is in the record of the individual platform
of the party seeking the nomination Don't be misled
by name-calling and booby-trap words
Only by understanding the true meanings of the
words and slogans politicians throw at
defeat the forces of disunity and confusion Perhaps
need intensive course in semantics. Every poll

ested parties wish to keep their program before the
public eye in a favorable light. Words, phrases and
slogans turned into smear" words and phrases will not

the principles and the platform of the elect
to office that will either build keep her
stagnant and undeveloped Let's understand the words
let's look the record let's quit hating words put
for our consumption, let's take everything we hear
with grain of salt and remember that matter how
thin they slice it, it's still baloney.

4 Christmas Thought
Oh. Christmas is coming again. you
say,
And you long for the things it
is bringing;
But the cOStlieSt Gift may not
gladden. the day
Nor help in the merry bells
ringing.
Some getting is losing, you under
stand,
Some boarding is far from sav.
ing;
What you hold in your hand may
slip from your hand
There is something better than
having;
We are richer for what we give
And only by giving we live.
