One of the most vital portions Of

sists of 8 separate budgets: for
labor resources; building items
containing lumber, cement and
bricks; goods and service balance
with foreign countries; foreign ex-
change; home production; con-
sumption; investment; and finally
public works and utilities. The
results of these 8 separate bud
gets are combined in a general
budget giving a survey of the
whole economic picture. Accord
ing to the latter, an import sur
plus of 900 million Kr in goods
and services is anticipated. Goods
imports for 1947 are set at
2,45O, 100000 Kr. against 1885,

expected to reach 2 billion kroner

the remainder going for consump-

Aid to Europe Fund

100000 Children

STOCKHOLM, May 81. In
fourteen different countries more
than 100000 children receive one
hot meal a day under the auspices
of the Swedish Aid to Europe
Fund. How this organization func-
tions, and what other help is given
to war-ravaged countries, recent
ly was shown at an exhibition
here, aimed at stimulating further
the interest in SWeden's internal
tional relief work. An interesting
detail was demonstration of the
help to self help which is practiced
in Vienna.
A Swedish firm has constructed
machine which produces con-
crete blocks from the rubble Of
bom bed-out houses. The brick and
stone remains are crushed and
mixed with cement, and with this
material 1000 new homes will now
be built. At the exhibition, visitors
also had chance to taste the So
called "Swede Stup," of which so
far PIP million portions have been
served all over Europe. A special
branch of the Post Office was set
up at the exhibition, making it
possible for visitors to mail their
contributions on the spot.

Dairymen TO Enlist
In Fund-Raising
Drive

Tens of thousands of Montana dairy
men in all parts of the state will again
enlist next month in the nationwide
SALES not Surplus" campaign to build
fund for expanding the sale and con-
sumption of dairy foods.
For several years Montana dairymen
in ever-increasing numbers have
backed and supported the advertising,
merchandising and research program
of the financed and farmer-con-
trolled American Dairy Association of
Montana an organization that has done
much to stabilize the dairy industry.
Recognizing the need of aggressive
business action to avert the dangers
of milk surpluses that might bring
price collapse, Montana dairymen have
adopted the national plan of contribut-
ing on a voluntary basis of one cent
per pound of butterfat delivered at
dairy plants in the month of June,
Montana is one of SO states from
coast to coast, representing 80 percent
of the nations milk supply, that are

A similar resolution on the National
Political Action Committee was ap.
proved.
By resolution, each Montana Clio
local was requested to affiliate with
the State Legislative Co-ordinating
Conference which functioned through
out the legislature as a central infor-
nation source on what was going on
in Helena More than 400 organiza-
tions were provided with legislative
information during the session, and
more recently, at meeting held in
Great Falls, many affiliated organiza-
tions through their representatives
voted that the conference should be-
come permanent year-around body.
AS a source of reliable information
on economic and political news, The
Peoples Voice-Montana' only state
wide Independent newspaper - was
highly recommended. The delegates
likewise requested that all Montana
CLIO members subscribe for this coop
eratively owned weekly, published in
Helena.
One resolution which failed concur
renee by the delegates, would have
combined the offices of president and
secretary of the MSIUC. However
delegates did vote that in future it
would be left up to the executive board
as to when the president should be on
a salary basis.

term in the senate expires next year,
has taken major decision in planning
his fight for reelection.
He expects little or no opposition in
the Democratic primary, unless former
Senator Burton Wheeler surprises ev-
eryone and attempts comeback.
But the Republicans, who elected
Zales Ecton to the senate from Mon
tana last year, are laying for Murray's
seat. He is sure to have strong COP
opposition, the most likely candidate
so far appearing to be the Republican
governor, Sam Ford.
The Great Power Issue In
Montana
The issue of public power is a great
one in Montana, with strong private
utility interests ready and able to fight
any about advocate of such public
projects.
Nevertheless, Murray has decided
to make the public power issue the
major one in the election battle.
He will try to slug it out against the
corporate interests without lodging
in the hope the people will vote on
his side.
Thus, in carrying on the campaign
for MVA, he is laying the groundwork
for his own election campaign. Left
Erickson, who defeated Wheeler in
the last primary, but who will not run
against Murray, is heading the MVA
in the state.
Meanwhile, the bill itself has been
to a hostile senate committee
which is expected to oppose any pub
ic power bill
By agreeing not to fight against ref
srence of the bill to that committee, |
however, Murray has obtained assur-
lnces from the COP senate leadership
hat the measure will be given hear
ngs, probably in mid-June.
In those hearings, Murray and his |
expect to start making a
ase which will be carried to the peo-
lie of the Missouri valley and through |
he Montana election campaigns next |
ear. They hope it will bear fruit in
later ongress.-CHICAGO SUN.

NAM Caught Buck
CONTINUED from Page One)


sumption has decreased 10 to Is per
cent. re
Food costs are so outrageously high
that big business and its spokesman
like the NAM are trying to blame the
entire inflationary increase in living
costs on the farmers. But examina-
ton of the facts shows definitely that
it has been the food trusts, not the
farmers, who have been gouging the
consuming public.
Anti-Government Charge Debunked
For example, the NAM blames the
governments price-support program
for raising food prices to astronomical
levels. Under this program the gov
eminent is committed in 1947 and 194S
to support the prices of major agri-
parity (parity is the relationship be-
tween the prices received by the farm
er and the prices he has to pay for the
goods, machinery and other things he
has to buy.)
The farmer needs this support. AT
ter World War | farmers lost their
farms by the tens of thousands in the
depression of 1920-1921. They did not
recover from their terrific losses for
two decades With another depres-
sion shaping up, farmers need this as
surance of support if they are to meet
the unprecedented food needs of the
u. S. and the hungry people of the
rest of the world.
Furthermore, the price-support prog
ram has so far been applied to only
one major food-potatoes. The gov
eminent doesn't support the price of
wheat, for instance, until it falls be-
low $1S2 a bushel But spectators
drove it up to SO in March and the re-
cent price has been in the .neighbor-
hood of $3.50 Similarly, the support
price of hogs is $14.94 per hundred
pounds but the recent price has been
around $25.
Food Trust Stuffs On Profits
Speculation and profiteering by the
food trusts-and not the governments
program-are thus re-
sponsible for food prices that are out
Of reach of the average workers fam
lily. Dairy farmers are being squeezed
by high feed prices, and at the same
Tine they are being gypped by the big
larry corporations which fix the prices
hey receive for milk. Wholesale
prices of dairy products went up about
Is per cent in the past year. But the
'etail prices paid by city families in
creased about 81 per cent
This gouging by the dairy trust
shows up in it's profit figures Sixteen
larry products corporations according
o the National City Bank of New
York increased their profits after tax
IS by 6S per cent in 1916 compared
With 1945 Profits rose from 500 mil
ion to $655 million.
But farmers as whole receive
'nly SO per cent of the consumers re-
all food dollar. The remaining so
Ter cent is grabbed by the dairy, meat
md other food trusts. They, and not
he farmers, are responsible for the
Irop in the consumption of vital foods.
t is important that workers not be
nisled by the NAM ballyhoo about
Just as farmers must learn
hat the inflationary prices they pay
or fertilizer, machinery, clothing, etc.,
re due, not to labor costs, but to the
drive of big business.
