PUBLICAN president candidate Wendell Wkie in
the 1910 fall campaign More recently he served
on the committee named by President Truman to
make a thorough investigation of the problems of
Palestine Upon returning from Palestine Crum
published his book Behind the Silken Curtain, one
of the most authoritative books thus far written

Of interest, particularly to Voice readers, was
the novel way seminar speakers attempted to affiX
the red" label on this publication One of the Cali
fornia un-American committee hot shots informed
the audience that there Communists" publica-
ton in their state, but, he g. couldn't remember
its name' Later on question from the audience
on same was answered by seminar chairman, Col
Charles r. Dawley by his pointing out that The
Voice had been declared such by the house I'M
American committee. He then informed the audi
ence that The Voice was published by the Educa-
tional Cooperative Publishing Co.
THE COLONEL DIDN'T TELL ALL
Significantly, he didn't mention that his paper
house, for many years had been the principal
of paper supplies for this Educational Coop
erative Publishing Co.-and that he the sales
man who got the commission credits for such sales.
Although the editor of The Voice asked for the priv
ilege of telling those present that The Voice is
absolutely Independent publication subservient to
neither corporation, communist politician, Colonel
Dawley ruled him out of order.

following conclusion of hear
ings in Helena, apparently is
more sweeping than the find
ings in Octboer, 1947, of Glen
r. Law, presiding examiner for
the commission at the sessions
here.
Roy H. Glover of Butte, one of
the power company's counsel in the
field hearings and subsequent oral
arguments in Washington before the
examiner and the full commission,
tonight said he has not been informed
officially of the commissions opinion
and order and would have no COM
ment until he reads the decision.
Terms of Act
Under terms of the federal power
act, the company may comply with
the order or ask for a rehearing by
the commission within 80 days. If
the rehearing should be asked and
denied, the company would have the
right to ask review by the circuit
court of appeals either in the ninth
district in San Francisco or in the
court of appeals in Washington, DC.
Any decision of the appellate court
would be subject to review by the
supreme court in Washington.
A summary of the power commits
sion's opinion as received here states
the commission held generally in line
with the examiners report that the
seven plants on the Missouri river,
four near Great Falls and three in
the Helena area, are maintained and
operated in a potrion of the ''naviga-
BILE waters of the United States" but
overruled the examiners conclusion
that the company's Hotter project
was being operated under a valid
permit granted by the secretaries of
agriculture and interior and expiring
December 81, 1868. I
Two projects on the Madison river,
the Madison power plant and Hebgen
reservoir, also were held to require
licenses. The examiner held this |

friday and Saturday.
The committee although vot-
ing heavily against the sales
tax, did recommend to the leg
islature: the upping of income
and corporation license taxes
with 95 per cent of the proceeds to
go for education; a severance tax,
and slot machine license taxes.

proved accounting methods, estab-
fishing depreciation schedule ac-
cording to terms of the federal
power act and giving the federal
government an option to purchase
the privately-owned project at the
end of so years. Whether the So
year period would run from the TAX
ing Of license or from construction
of a dam was not discussed in the
public hearings here and apparently
has not come up in briefs submitted
by either side prior to the decision.

cause issued by the commission in
1913. The company has made sep
arate application for federal IL
cense for its Madison power project
after withdrawing joint application
for Hebgen and Madison. The power
commission never has recognized this
, withdrawal.
The commission opinion held the
Missouri river actually was used in
interstate commerce from points
above the Great falls rather than
merely having been susceptible to
such use, thus supporting commits
sion counsel contention it legally was
navigable throughout its length.
The power company argued in hear
ings here that the historic head of
navigation was at Fort Benton, we'll
downstream from any of it's dams,
and that under the congressionally-
approved Pick-Sloan plan, the actual
head of navigation so far as current
conditions are concerned is at Sioux
City.
The order says, "Since each of the
nine developments occupies without
authority a 'navigable water or pub
lie lands or both, and since all affect
the navigable capacity of 'naviga-
Bile water the commission has au-
thority under the act to require they
be operated and maintained only if
licensed" A 'navigable water of
the United States" is a legal term
covering streams over which con-
gress maintains jurisdiction and does
not necessarily imply navigability in
fact.
Order Resisted
The power company resisted the !
order to take out licenses
on all except the Madison plant on
the grounds either there was no fed
eral jurisdiction or that, in the case
of plants and reservoirs located on |
public lands, proper permits now are
held.

Washington, as we'll as to friends in
New York, Philadelphia and Balti-
more. The mansion was thrown
open and pavilions were erected on
the lawns.
The Ladies Aid entertained more
than once at the Capitol, for old
records tell how tea cups and
saucers bearing the likeness of
George and Martha Washington
were made especially for a later
party at the Capitol and were sold
by prominent women of that day.
Still another event recalled in the
society's documents was valen-
tine tea" held from 4 to II at the
Willard Hotel in 1892.
Although it's benefits have made
social history, the purpose of the
Ladies Aid has always been to meet
the needs of the hospital.
One of its earliest acts was to
borrow $4,000 to erect the first
building of the present hospital
and the records point out with pride
that payments on this financial obli-
CATION were always met promptly.
Now the society has its old prob
lem of raising funds for d new
purpose This time, it is the can
cer-prevention clinic. which opened
in December, 1916, in the Warwick
Clinic at Garfield.
Financed by the Ladies Aid, the
cancer-prevention clinic has met
such a popular response that 1t now
has a long waiting list for appoint
ments.
To make expansion possible, the
society is sponsoring the fashion
show which is to be put on by the
Washington Fashion Group. His
tory undoubtedly will be repeated,
for number of distinguished
guests already have made plans to
attend.
Mrs. Frederick F. B. Siddons is
now president of the Ladies Aid
and Mrs. Andrew Parker is chair
man of the benefit.

list of benefits held by the society to
meet it's obligations one behalf OF
the hospital.
One of it's most unusual feteS,
however. was its f1rst-a tea party
held in the rotunda of the Capitol.
Like the forthcoming fashion
show-which is to raise funds for
the cancer-prevention clinic at Gar
f1eld-the Capitol tea met an urgent
hospital need.
The history of the Ladies Aid
and its first benefit, goes back to
1882. shortly after the death OF
President Garfield. The group of
prominent men who formed an as
ISOLATION to found the Garfield Me-
moral Hospital invited outstanding
women from the various States to
organize an auxiliary. Mrs. Grover
Cleveland was one of the members
and Mrs. William Window wife OF
the Senator from Minnesota, was
the first president.
AS their initial project, the ladies
undertook to equip a small building
accommodating five beds, which was
the only structure on the newly &C
Quired hospital grounds.
To raise funds, they decided to
hold a tea in the rotunda Of the
Capitol and the consent of both
houses of Congress was obtained.
The affair took place on May 6,
1882, and proved to be gala &C.
casion. The dome was lighted, the
rotunda was filled with flags and
flowers and the Marine Band played
for dancing. Nearly $4,000 was
raised from the fete.
Two years later the society en-
barked on long period of brilliant
entertaining under the leadership
of Mrs. John A. Logan, wife of the
Civil War general, who was to serve
as president for 80 years.
Benefits were put on twice year.
Old records tell Of grand ball held
at the Chinese Legation, through
the courtesy of the Chinese Min
ister. Popular actors and actresses

them Sol Smith Russell, Nat Good
