The Copitol Week

Helena-U.P)-The statehouse has
had its first taste of July political
fever along with the advent of
Spring.
State Auditor John ]. Holmes
tossed his hat into the ring an
nouncing he would file for the
democratic congressional nomina-
ton from the second district to
succeed Rep. Wesley A. D'Ewart,
R., Wilsall
Holmes announced his intentions
shortly after R. E. Skeen of Bill
lings filed for United States sena-
tor on the Republican ticket with
a slogan of mo promises to make
no promises to break"
Holmes, completing his fourth
term as auditor and commissioner
of insurance, was discussed as a
congressional candidate early in
l945 after the death of Congress
man James F. O'Conner of Living
ston. He said party leaders had re-
newed requests that he run this
year. D'Ewart was named to re-
place O'Conner at special cleo
ton last June.
Capital circles knew little about
Skeen except that he was a mem

However, the experts still belle

wasn't much doubt that he would
Skeen asked that there be placed

promises to make-no promises to
break. That's all folks" The slo-
gan just meets baiOt limitations
for such statements.
Atty. Gen. R. V. Bottomly, at
tempting to clear a cloudy" vet
Grams problem, has held that the
term "honorably discharged en-
braced all ex-servicemen who were
relieved, released, trans
ferred or retired from active duty
under reputable circumstances.
The term excluded persons who
were dishonorably. discharged, and
persons who received bad conduct
or undesirable discharges, he said.
The opinion was handed down for
Cascade County Attorney H. r.
Eickmeyer to clarity the county's
obligation to pay $3.50 for funeral
expenses toward burial of veterans.
Unfortunately the general pub
lic-and many persons in military
service-do not understand the com
plexity of the discharge systems
of the various branches of the ar
med forces" Bottomly said.
The possibility the legislature
intended to extend burial benefits
only to those veterans who received
honorable discharges is repugnant
to me.
Il cannot envision their desiring
to omit the Vulnerable veterans
who received certificates of service,
certificates of satisfactory service,
discharged under honorable condi-
tons or those many thousand who
were relieved, released, transfer
red or retired from active duty.
The legislative intention, as
view it, was to extend burial bene-
fits to all veterans who served their
country worthily and left service
under reputable circumstances. To
say otherwise would be to create
an absurdity and to foster an in
justice"

Conspiracy Denied.
Mr.. Hardy told Judge Broaddus
in his opening statement that it is
impossible for the so-called Hanger
companies ITO engage among them
selves in the conspiracy charged in
the indictment" being a single
business unit"
Mr.. Hardy contended the Hanger
companies constitute single, econ

the Washington firm is "a manufac-
turer of parts, which it supplies to
the other Hanger branches"

Artificial Limb Firm
Letters Identified as
Antitrust Trial Opens

The artificial limb case, based on
alleged violation of the Sherman
Antitrust Act, was in recess in Dis
trict Court today, with sessions to
be resumed tomorrow or Monday.
Federal Judge Bower Broaddus of
Oklahoma, presiding at the trial,
yesterday excused Defense Counsel
Russell Hardy to permit him to fly
to st. Paul, Mimi, to argue case
in the Circuit Court of Appeals.
Judge Broaddus instructed Mr..
Hardy to advise him when he re-
turns to the city and, If possible, a
court session will be held tomorrow.
The trial started yesterday and the
eight defendants have waived a
jury trial.
At yesterday afternoons session,
the Government attempted to prove
through Henry c. Feller, secretary
treasurer of j. E. Hanger, Inc, 221
G street NV, that letters taken
from the firms files and put in
evidence are genuine. The company
is one of the defendants on trial.
Signatures Identified.
Mr.. Feller identified signatures of
officials of numerous artificial limb
firms throughout the country. These
letters later will be read into the
court record. the prosecution said.
Daniel B. Britt, special assistant
to the Attorney General and Special
Attorney Maurice Godin, the prose-
cutors, say the letters are part of
the evidence of the conspiracy into
which the manufacturers entered to
charge high prices for artificial
limbs, not only to individuals, but
to the Veterans Administration,
State agencies and others.
The Governments first witness
yesterday was a wearer of two arti-
fetal legs, Patrick J. Norton of the
United Limb & Brace Co., Boston.

to grant an unfair and illegal dis
elimination in price and otherwise,
to the disadvantage of members of

limbs"
The indictment was dismissed
against ]. E. Hanger, Inc, of Bos-
ton, yesterday. The Government
explained this is in reality a branch
of the District firm, which is doing
business in Massachusetts under a
