Prison Made Goods

SD 1885, the prison made goods bill which received
overwhelming approval in the senate only to be killed
in the house, is in point in attempting
to determine which is the correct" way of voting
Certain sections of this which provided
that penal institutions provide products for other
state institutions in the interests of good business and
economical operation of state def
initey good In theory too, the sections making it
datory that all political subdivisions of the pur
chase whatever prison-made goods that may be avail
able correct
However, it is particularly this applicability of
the proposed law to political sub divisions" Counties
schools etc. where theory and reality hit head
Theoretically viewing SD 156 questions Immediately
arise Why not put that latent power pool of about
1000 to work producing Shoes brooms printing,
dry goods etc.? Why shouldn't political subdivisions
avail themselves of their needs through prison labor
at lot lower cost to the taxpayer than having pay
several profit margins in buying such products through
local distributors?
Realistically operating under a philosophy
of private economy" The circulation of an ever ex-
banding amount of prison made goods would

Other Important Bills

Noticably lacking from roll call tabuation are
certain important and controversial measures which
appeared before the legislature. These include such
proposals school reorganization, lib 1874 unempoy
ment comp with merit rating HB 1884, and the senate
vote SD 92, state identification authority
Taking these in order By the time HB 1874 left the
house for the senate many amendments and changes
had been written into it, that, with the exception of
the provision concerning a governors commission,
and the lack of adequate plan of financing it was
almost impossible for the layman to determine wheh-
Ell the bill good bad. AS this columnst
could determine this bill with all amendments incor-
porated, became literally 'tossup' whether or
not members should vote AYE may" in the best

The "Loan Shark" Bill

SB 81, better known the loan shark" bill, estab
fishes a principle of regulation over the small loan
business, a regulation which hitherto has been non
exstant except under the general laws usury The
latter laws although good not widely known par
tcuarly among the poorer people who frequently
avail themselves of small loan services Also the
usury laws to be operative, must be invoked by the
person wronged. On the other hand SD would place
these under the regulation of the superin-
tendent of banks and thereby provide modicum of
protection to the borrower
This bill very possibly is not stringent enough
complish all that is desired however with it on
the statute books and principle of regulation estab
lshed subsequent legislatures amend it to remove
any defects that may develop.
1t is the basis of establishing a sound principle
that the editors indicated affirmative votes
in both houses as being correct" votes.

The Bulwinkle Bill Again :!

Last summer the end of the 10Th congress The
Voice published considerable relating to the Bull
Wrinkle Bill and what it's passage do to the ship
pers of the nation, particularly those the 81 dis
crimnated states of which Montana is one Time and
again it pointed out that should such proposal
approved by the congress the president shippers
would be denied all recourse through the OBJ
tain relief from unjust discriminatory freight rates
Fortunately the bill died in committee after hav
ing been approved by the house
However, to be anticipated the American
Association of Railroads, have had their congressional
supporters introduce similar bill the SOtb congress-
and according to Sen Russell Georgia, due to the new
complexion of the the only hope of stopping
the measure rests in a presidential veto. Montana
shippers should be their toes and Immediately con-
tact their congressional delegation expressing aout
opposition to such a measure

law the understafed railroadb bankers cub-the inter

respective legislators.
Certainly, for example, the house
votes on either lib 81, HB IS, lib
SO or HUM 8, or the senate votes
on SB "a, SB los, SB 159 or HUM
8, give fairly conclusively proof on
how the various legislators eval-
uate human VS.. property values.
But, on certain other proposals,
the issues were not so we'll de-
