OCTOBER 9. ls47


During wartime many women
learned to render their own fat for
dressings. They use fat trimmings
from meat and chicken running
them through a grinder. Then 1t is
melted In a double boiler and
strained through a cloth. Keeping
the grease in cold place will pre-
vent 1t from getting rancid. That's
why it isn't good idea to keep fat
around the hot kitchen on the
stove or in an open can-as many
people do.

Green Urges Labor
To Back Cancer
Funds Appeal

Washington, DC. = An urgent ap-
peal to workers throughout the nation
to joint with other groups in the drive
to raise funds to combat cancer has
been issued by AFL President Will
liam Green.
In his message to the nations labor
ing groups Mr.. Green said:
"The workers of the nation suffer
from the dread disease of cancer
equally with all other classes of peo-
pie. The death rate among working
people from cancer is exceedingly
high. For that reason labor should
join with other groups in the fight
which is being made against cancer
and its deadly effects.
MANY expert medical representa-
tives report that at least 80 percent
of those suffering from cancer can be
saved by early diagnosis and treat
ment. All of this requires broad edu-
cation and money with which to do it.
1.-THE American Cancer Society
opens its campaign on April 1 for
collection of $12,00O,000 to be used in
the fight against cancer The Amer
lean Federation of Labor has been
asked to cooperate and give support
to this most worthy cause.
81 respectfully call upon labor every
where to respond and assist in every
possible way in this Embarrassing cam
paign in order to carry on "a success

BUDDY CARRIES THE BALL OR
WHO'S FINE HAND?

Maybe the American people should
take second look at the sponsors of
this bill. We all know Senator Over
toms long history as an arch-foe of
public power, but maybe we don't all
know that Senator Thomas introduced
Senate Bill 972 in this session which
would require the government to ped
die all power from federal installa-
tions to the public via public (pri-
vTte) utilities.
AS for Senators Malone and McCar-
thy-the betting is that one wouldn't
have to scratch very deeply to find
the sort of tie-up between them and
power interests that exists between
Montana Power and Montana's junior
senator
Mr.. Reno Sales, native of the
Gallatin valley and product of Mon
tana state college, is the longtime
chief geologist for the Anaconda Cop
per Mining Company.

| / read with interest your two views

me say that | think the bill was ill-ad-

vetoed it, but not for the reasons Civ

the observer" who made an analysis
Of the Ford speech to sign his name.
You may have forgotten, but during
the time Frank Cooney was governor,
LaRue Smith of Great Falls prepared
a bill which passed the legislature

Cooney would veto it so consequently
did not talk to him but found later
that he had vetoed it. | Immediately
went to Helena and his excuse was
that he had over 5000 kilograms sign
ed by people from all over the state
protesting against the bill and it was
evident to me That the loan shark
companies had taken the telephone
directory, sent these wires under var
ious peoples names and Cooney very
much regretted after an explanation
was made, that he ever vetoed the
bill
The bill changed the regular rate
from ten per cent to six per cent and
made it a penal offense to collect
over six per cent directly or indirect
Iy from any loan under the penalty of
90 days in Jail or 81 900 fine or both,

passed in preference to the one that

WHY SHOULD | VOTE?

100000 voters went to the polls. Four
years later in 1912 only ELEVEN
months after Pearl Harbor only 28,-
100000 voters went to the polls (you
soldiers remembered how you cussed
in letters back to the folks you did
not get BALLOT.
Only $40 of the voters used their
prerogatives and duty as GOOD CITI-
ZENS by casting their ballot. 10000
600 less votes cast in 1912, in 1916
an estimate of 5000, 900 more votes
cast than in 1912 but 100000 less
than in 1888. Do you have to lose
your shirt, home and business or get
on RELIEF before you will go to the
polls and vote? If you voted every
election, school,, city, county, state per-
haps you wouldn't need to lose your
job or your time. The vote at Prim-
aries is worse yet only 54 percent of
the voters voted.
You boosted of never voting in a
primary, that you and the Mrs. are
Good Citizens. Well you may kid
yourselves and your neighbors and
you are not kidding your kids, who
learn in school that a Good Citizen is
one who votes at every election. Don't
ever criticize your representatives in
Washington, state, county or your
own. ward unless you voted at the last
primary, school, stae and government
election. The records at the county
clerk and recorders office show
whether you voted or not and can
easily be checked A good citizen
must be registered voter and vote
Next time you kids want a buck to
go to a show, ask your Dad and
Mother, eff They Are Good Citizens?
You know whether they voted or not
You may get the buck

PRAISED I'm
MAN AGAINST
MYTH

Myths about labor, poverty, and
inferior" races are blasted in Man
Against Myth, just announced by
Book Find Club as it's April selection.
The author, Barrows Durham, is as
sistant professor of philosophy at
Temple University.
The very situation of labor makes
it a force for progress, says Profess
sor Durham in this typical passage
from his book:
The laborers are SO placed in our
society that their struggles for self
improvement are also struggles again
st the inequalities and the tyrannies,
small-an great, which harass and i'm
peril everybody else. Some sections
of society (notably the lower middle
class) have shown from time to time
6 susceptibility to fascism; but labor,
by reason of its very position, has to
be fascism's irreconcilabIe foe
Some sections of society can afford
Cor think they can afford) the gross
pleasures of anti-Semitism discrimi-
nation against Negroes, and the de-
Vi uuu6SlfSdDI0 aliens,
but the labor movement simply can
not survive if it tolerates such divi-
sive activities within it's ranks. Some
sections of society can indulge with
out too great hardship host of myths
and superstitiOns such as are discuss
ed in this volume. To the labor move
ment all such myths are fatal, and, as
soon as they are discovered, they are
destroyed. Thus, just as the capital
lists were the bearers of physical sci
ence in the days of their revolution
airy triumphs, so the labor movement
is the bearer of social science in our
own day"
Among other myths Professor Dun
ham debunks are these:
You can't change human nature;
there are superior and inferior races;
all problems are merely verbal; words
will never hurt me; there are two
sides to every question.

BY CAROLINE BRAMMER

On my first visit to the United
States Senate hit the jackpot. This
was the day, March 25th, 1947 when
Montana's junior senator caught that
lateral pass from Senator Mcclellan
all the way across the senate floor.
When | first caught sight of Sen
ator Ecton he was busily writing with
the earnest concentration of a hope
full valedictorian doing his home work
1t was just past lunch and few SEN
ators had taken their seats. Senator
Revercomb of West Virginia was read
ing aloud from a thick pile of type
script. Senator Mcclellan was on
watch Now and then Senator Ecton
conferred with Senator Mccarthy of
Wisconsin who flanks him on the
right and Senator Bricker of Ohio
who sits at his left.
An hour later Revercombs type
script was dwindling, Mcclellan was
leaning forward in his seat and Ecton
showed signs of ants in the pants
Pepper beat Ecton to the punch and
Hickenlooper to Connolly. The after
noon wore on and it began to look
as if Senator Ecton was going to get
left at the post.
But along toward $50 he got the
floor His first few sentences were
inaudible and the gallery is indebted
to Senator Pepper who requested "the
distinguished Senator from Montana
to speak louder" But for this timely |
suggestion | shouldn't have known
what Mr.. Ecton was up to.
This was it:
Senator Ecton in partnership with !
Senators OvertOn, Thomas, McCar
thy and Malone, was introducing a
bill to scuttle Mr.. Lilienthal as head /
of the Atomic Energy Commission
along with the rest of the commission
by making Secretary Marshall the
of atomic energy Mr..
Ecton suggested that "other nations"
only understand atomic bomb Ian
guage and respect us for NO OTHER
and therefore Secretary
should have easy access to
1ersuaders.
I think it might be argued that
Senator Ecton was unaware of the
implications of his words
because he was occupied with other
matters closer to home. After ALL
led just lunched with Mr.. Reno
Sales
And so it was that Montana's junior
senator was the chore boy for the
oower Lobbys last ditch fight to pro-
ect themselves and their vested in
erests from the American people. u

To- Conor Vote Probers
Adopt 1o Rules in
Strict IS Party Split
By J. A. OLeory

The Senate Rules Committee to-
day adopted by a strict party vote
of to S set of 10 rules to guide
It's investigators in passing on tht
legality of disputed ballots In the
contest over the election of Senator
o'Conor, Democrat, in Maryland
last year.
The subcommittee handling the
contest was still not ready, however
to give the full committee any total
indicating whether Senator O'Conol
will lose or gain ground when these
rules are applied to the 1924 dis
puted ballots in the five counties
where the recount is complete.
Senator Jenner, Republican, OF
Indiana, chairman of the subcom-
mittee, said the full committe was
asked to approve these 10 so-called
categories of disputed ballots to
guide the investigators as they
began work today on a recount in
the II remaining counties.
Indications are it will take from
six weeks to two months to canvass
these counties, and no figures are
likely to be given out changing the
November election results until the
counting is completed.
Senator O'Conor was declared the
winner last November over D. John
Markey, his Republican opponent,
by only 2,232 votes. Mr.. Markey
filed contest with the Senate and
a srecheck of the voting machines
in Baltimore City and Montgomery
County reduced Senator O'Conor's
margin by 426 votes. The recount
ing now going on is in the counties
using paper ballots.
Chairman Jenner said the 19
rules approved by the Republican
majority today follow a strict in
depreciation of Maryland law" He
said the contention of the Demo-
Gratis who voted against these def
nitiof1s was that the committee
should try to determine the intent
Of the voter.
To illustrate the nature of the
10 rules, one declares ballots marked
in ink illegal, because the law re.
quires indelible pencil. Other rules
will result in throwing out ballots
on which the 'ix" mark after can
didate's name is accompanied by
any other distinguishing mark.
