New Whether the Amer
lean people ever get chance to live
in a land of atomic plenty may be de-
cided by a group of big businessmen,
who have a personal stake in holding
up industrial uses of atomic energy.
Despite it's significance for the U.
SIS future, the press generally played
down the recent appointment by David
e. Lilienthal of special board of bust
nessmen as consultants to the federal
Atomic Energy Commission, which he
heads. The appointments, Dr. Will
liam Higinbotham of the Federation of
Atomic Scientists told Federated Press
are all "free enterprise" minded men
and should put to rest any big bust
ness fears about Lilienthals social
ideas, raised during the fight over his
senate confirmation to the commission
post. The men picked by Lilienthal
to speed up peacetime applications of
atomic energy are
Pres. James w Parker and Col.
Walker Cisler of the Detroit Edison
Co., which holds a utility monopoly in
Detroit and 46 neighboring cities and
made $10,631 ,040 profits in 1916.

tana Flu members that the
Farmers Union, since Septem-
Der IS, has been calling for a
special session of congress to
deal with "the prairie fire of initiation
at home and the development of our
foreign aid program
However," he said, there is tend
ency to consider overall price controls
as something only police state would
do, while at the same time looking at
the control of farm prices only as
quite democratic.'
eff this were to occur, the farmers
might we'll find themselves in the
position of passenger riding on the
top of a runaway elevator that's
about to hit the roof"
Patton pointed out that the Board
of Directors of the National Farmers
Union recently called upon congress
and the government to take all the
steps necessary to halt spiraling do
nestle prices and organize foreign
relief program through the UN.
Must Stabilize Our Economy
"The failure to stabilize our domest-
ic economy inevitably will throw all
present calculations of help to other
countries, and of expanded production
here, out of kilter," he said.
'The two are indivisahle and in
reality are one and the same program
The citizens voluntary food commit
tee and other voluntary attempts to
meet these problems are not enough. y
Talking about the past may not
seem important in these troubled
times, but in the case of the Farmers
Union we have something to remem-
Der. The past is the father of the
present, and the memory of the causes
of initiation and the stand the Farmers
Union took against wild speculation
will not fail.
Farmers will recall, now and in
1913 and in 1850, that there is one
of farmers with a con-
sistent record. The Farmers Union is
the only farm organization that does
not have the blood of initiation on it's
hands.

IF HE OBEYS
LAW

A letter received this week
by State Auditor John Holmes
from Governor Ford, in effect
threatens the State Auditor and
his bondsmen with reprisals if
the auditor obeys a certain state
law pertaining to refunds on
sales of gasoline to farmers and
other users, for purposes other
than for use on public high
ways, or streets in the state.
Under the state law, it is the duty of
the state auditor to draw a warrant
for any such claim of refund which
reaches him, approved by a majority
of the members of the State Board of
Equalization and Mr.. Holmes states
that he intends to follow the letter of
the law despite any directions of the
Governor.

funds, which formerly required that

Park County Labor
Sets Up Welfare
Fund

Recently the Park County Trades
and Labor Council conducted quite an
extensive campaign among labor union
memberships and others to set up a
welfare fund for educational and po-
litical purposes. The initial drive, ac-
cording to William J. Priest was fairly
successful, and aroused laborites down
Livingston way are looking forward
to doing considerable political action

referring to their protestations of in

Terming the admitted red-baiting of
Actor Adolph Menjou as ''Miscast Men
iou at Donnybrook Fair" Celler said
1.-THE offensive spectacle that the COM
mittee members are making of them
selves make all true Americans blush
with shame. They are dragging con-
gress into a quagmire of Gestapo-like
snoopings and sneerings. The beliefs
and opinions of men of the cinema or
otherwise are nobody's business but
their own. See the Bill of Rights
Celler said congress rather than
Hollywood is on trial. Mote the klieg
lights" he said "the grinding cam
eras, the publicity thirsty Chairman
Thomas, his bull-dozing tactics, the
caucus room becoming an arena for
venting pet peeves by the miscast
Menjou, regulations dynamited by
hearsay and with no right of reply.

gress bellies such injustice and tom

only farm organization that did not
declare war in September 1912 on the

sterilization before congress.

that the voters in 1913 will remember
Taft, Wherry and some of the south
ern reactionary democrats who fol
lowed the National Association of
Manufacturers propaganda line"
Patton said the Farmers Union can
be rightfully proud of its leadership.
1--WE were the first to sound an alert
that. some of congress and congress
sional committees were planning to
launch an attack on co-Operatives.
Our state and national organizations
have maintained a constant watch
and some states like North Dakota
already have begun a real fight to
defend our cooperative institutions.
1--WE have fought at every turn to
preserve the family-type farm in
America. The Flu is the only farm
organization which has made a pro-
posal for a long time agricultural pro-
gram-the Family Farming Act. In
my opinion, if the congress and the
war food administration had provided
the funds, the technical know-how and
the encourag cement to the family farm
ers and the under-employed farmers
of this country we would have in
creased our food production 20 to 80
per cent instead of 80 per cent.
Proud of Part in Promoting MVA
eThe Flu has consistently fought on
the whole broad front for an economy
of abundance rather than a return to
the prewar system of scarcity. We
are proud of our record in promoting
the MVA and the concept of develop
ment of regional planning, and our
fight with eastern capital represent
ing the selfish interests of handful
of exploiters of the west.
Patton paid particular attention to
the idea of valley authority regional
developments. He said the Flu must
go beyond the proposals to develop
and integrate power, irrigation, navi-
cation and soil conservation.
