New Dye Boon
TO Housewives

Perhaps the best tribute that
,an be paid to Americas free en-
lerprise system is the way manu-
'acturers often pass on to the
public the benefits of new dis
,overies and improvements with
,ut increased cost.
One example has just been an
lounced. It consists of a greatly
improved home dye that success
'ully dyes every fabric made,
including the modern fibers like
'Celanese," nylon, rayon and
mixtures. And the prices for this
lew all-fabric dye have not been
increased a pennyl They're still
100 or 15e, depending upon the
size of the package.
The improved dye is the result
If years of laboratory research
oy the Tintex company, worlds
argest maker of home dyes. Com
oany officials say their biggest
research problem was not in de-
yeloping the dye for all fabrics,
out in making it available to
consumers without raising prices,
1espite the added cost of manu-
'acture.
To the woman in the home, the
lew all-fabric dye comes as an
lndisguised blessing. No longer
does she have to know in advance
the kind of material an article is
made of or whether it is capable
Of being dyed at home. Nor does
she have to pay anything extra
for the improvement. All she
needs do is select the dye colors
from an assortment of more than
so, and begin dyeing as she has
in the past.
The streamlined dye arrives
100, at time when home-dyeing
is on a tremendous upsurge as a
result of clothing and material
shortages, and the need for ex-
tending the life of existing ward
robes and home decorations. Mil
lions of women are discovering
that they can, with the aid of the
dye-pot, not only add months Of
life to hard-to-replace articles
but also give them new color
beauty and smartness.

touring Montana in the interest of
any political party, or any candidate
for office, yet he was speaking under
the auspices of the Ecton for Senator

radio time he was using. Wonder who
is a liar?
He also attacked the leadership of

lem will be solved by calling names.
Nothing is gained by labelling the man
who disagrees with you "commun-
list" nor by blaming the British for all
the ills of the world. No tariff can be
levied by this country without its
having an effect on the world situa-
tion-possibly serious effect. Per-
haps the first things every man and
woman should do is to appraise his
own weaknesses and prejudices and
then admit to himself or herself that
other people, in all lands, are similar
ly made, have similar hopes and de-
sires and yes, fears. But this does not
mean that other people have the
same ideas about what form of govern
ment is best. Why expect a people to
step overnight from the rule of a
tribal chieftain into an enlightened
democracy. 1t can't be done.

THE OLD SO AND
SO SAYS:

The Christian Science Monitor
stands as high in the estimation of
people generally as any newspaper
published in the English language and
the truth of statements appearing In
it is seldom questioned. Roscoe Drum
mond is the manager of its Washing
ton, d. G. office and is known the
country over for his frankness, his
fearlessness in reporting facts and
getting at the truth. Writing to his
paper from Helena, on the 18th, he
said that all the republican leaders in
the state with whom he had talked
freely admitted there was no truth
in the charge that Left Erickson was
communist. Republican leadership of
the state stands convicted by their
own words of utterly despicable con-
duct. 1t is we'll known that this parti-
cular brand of dirt was dished out by
few republicans, mostly by certain
members of the so-called republican
clique which opposed Erickson in the
primaries. To the credit of many
members of the party it should be
said they have openly denounced such
tactics.
Maybe it is true and maybe it is
not, but the story has drifted up from
Billings that democrat there was ac-
costed by a republican friend who be-
gan to kid him because the demo-
cratic party does not sport ornate
headquarters, a big office force and
other signs of having plenty Of money
to spend. The democrat just grinned.
"Well," he said, just keep Robert
son, the Wyoming senator who is the
darling of the big corporations and
the Power trust talking. We shan't
need a headquarter if he'll keep on
telling the people of this section of
than it is" "He didn't say that, his
republican friend replied. "Oh, know
he didn't use those particular words
but he is big cattle man and he COM
planned bitterly because few head
of Mexican cattle were again being
admitted into the country for feeding.
What else could he have meant? He
wasn't honest enough to go on and
tell the people that Mexican cattle
have been shipped into Wyoming and
Montana by the thousands for sum-
mer feeding for years and no one
complained. A lot of these big cattle
men who sit around the lobby Of the
Northern hotel and cuss the admins

out of Mexican cattle themselves and
now they are beefing and bellyaching

quarters. All we ask is you keep Rob-

Mr. Melton called attention to the
services rendered by organized labor
over many years to teachers and the
cause of free education and urged his
listeners to not hesitate in bringing as
many teachers as possible into closer
association with the labor movement
to demonstrate appreciation and to eff
fectively continue the never ending
fight for free thought and action.
In complmenting the pioneering
union teachers of the newly formed
Montana Federation of Teachers for
their courage and foresight, he
urged them to not hesitate in con-
demning t e company unionism

by some school administrators.

new organization affixed their sigma
lures on the charter and the other

At the dinner meeting held at the
Montana Hotel at $50 in the evening
James D. Graham, in presenting the
charter to Miss MCGUIRE, gave assur-
ance of the unqualified support of or

organization.
Mr.. Graham told of the long fight by
labor unions against black listing
which, in some respects apparently
exists for school teachers, He COM
plimented the pioneering efforts of
the teachers unions of Montana to
protect the interests of all teachers

The Story Of Three Farmers Who Smoked Cigars

farmers do. They figured out that if they dubbed
together, they could buy these 10 cent cigars at
three for quarter.
That meant that the cigars cost 1-3 cents EACH
On the transaction they saved five cents
Now question came up. Should these farmers
be taxed the five cents they saved because they
were able to buy 1Oc cigars at three for quarter.
There were people who went marching up and
down the land carrying the banner Of Private
terprise" and shouting that the farmers should be
taxed the five cents they saved because they
able to buy 10 cent cigars at three for quarter.
The farmers scratched their heads and wondered.
They were not mad at anybody They were not
against free enterprise. They showed some enter
prise in being able to buy 10 cent cigars at three for
a quarter. They had made saving.
All they had done was to club together so they
could buy and sell at better advantage
What these farmers had learned was that coop

The way this story starts is that once upon time
there were two men who wanted to go into business.
They wanted to set up cigar store.
They had some money, but not enough So they
borrowed what they needed. Then they opened their
cigar store and began selling cigars.
They sold cigars at 10 cents apiece. Business
was good They sold lot Of cigars and made lot
of money. In fact, they sold so many 10 cent cigars
that they made millions Of dollars.
At the end of the year they figured up their
profits. They set aside some for a reserve. They
paid interest on the money they borrowed. Or may
be it was dividends on the stock they issued.
Then they kept all the profit after paying taxes.
They were good businessmen
Now it happened that there were three farmers
who lived near this cigar store. They liked to smoke
cigars They liked the particular 10 cent brand that
the cigar store sold.
But these three farmers knew that there was
big profit in that brand of 10 cent cigars And they
did not have any too much money to spend cigars
So they got together to talk things over, the way

Hoop Skirts For l946
By DOROTHY ROE (P Fashion Editor

American women are going fem mine with bang after the severe silhouette of the war years. Real hoop skirts are in the fashion line up for spring, 1946, along with padded hips, sloping shoulders, ac- centuated bustlings and corsets worn in bathing suits.
 After every war there is a change in the fashionable silhou- cite. The changes in store as the aftermath of World War II are predicted by leading American designers as follows:
 Omar Kiam Women are re- laxing mentally after the tense war years It will be a dressy year . Clothes will be designed to sit and look pretty in.
