P~ick-eord Plan viii Cripple Future

AS the governor OF the state whose
water development is placed in jeop-

OF Montana should be fighting TO pre-
vent that plan from being carried out.
Instead Sam Ford has made many
trips al the expense OF the taxpayer
to support the plan that will serious

Are Lamey's Other Union Endorsements
Also Spurious?

In the closing days Of the Primary campaign a fourpage newspaper titled
The Lamey Record will be distributed IN the organized labor cities of the state. Prn-
cHal contents Of the publication will be IL phohstatc reproductions Of PERSONAL
LETTERS from several union men ON OFFICIAL STATIONERY Of their organizations
While it is true that none of these letters pmport to carry union endorsement Of the
Lamey candidacy, the balance Of the contents Of the sheet is clevery designed to 70
indicate such blanket endorsement
This clever political manuever came to light when Transfers Union 100, Of
Billings, discovered that the LameyforCovernor Club was distributing in Butte and
other places, a reprint of a letter Of personal endorsement from n Q. its officers.
Immediately upon discovery, that union, through its business agent, N. R. Holmes,
dichmed any prior knowledge of the letter, or that the union had issued such an
endorsement. Besides having begun a vigorous attempt to advise all people in the
Billings area accordingly Business Agent Holmes has also sent the following telegram
