On this basis, an individual can be
branded disloyal, thrown out of his
| job, barred from all other jobs-all
without a fair hearing, with no right
to subpoena witnesses, no right to
cross-examine witnesses who may ap-
pear against him, no right even to be
confronted by witnesses.
Then there is the Thomas commit
tee which is smearing regulations of
men of Independent views, bringing
about situation where men are boy
cotted from earning a living not be-
cause of any act but because of their
opinions. l appeared before this COM
mittee to oppose proposed bills ban
ming the Communist party from the
ballot, bills by which congress found
as a fact that certain groups were dis
loyal and engaged in a conspiracy,
bills finding as a fact that men OF
certain views were agents of foreign
governments.
1t was startling to note how shock
ed these men were at views that l re-
institutions. So long as we have the
right freely to persuade and secretly
vote, we have a. method by which
changes can be made in our system,
however radical, without force. Deny
either of these and the theory on
which our government is founded is
destroyed. Yet these men would
drive out of political life those with
whose views they do not agree!
Before congress today is the clearly
unconstitutional Mundt bill, which
would penalize certain Americans, and
in fact, although not in words, destroy
their right to express their views as
freely as other citizens. Do l think
from the above instances of civil lib
critics violations, that the country is
going to the dogs, or that our civil
liberties generally are in danger and
that the fascists are making headway?
Not at all! Il do think, however, that
this is the time to fight.

When Do We Leave Germany?
That is a little easier to answer.
Hitler's war machine was built with
American capital and cartels. The
plan was that he would go east and
destroy Russian communism. Dillon,
Read & Co, New York bankers, now
running our government through For

that Hitler thought he could take on

to the Axis until caught four months
after we were at war with Germany.

Our occupation of Germany is costing
$50 million dollars the year. We will
leave Germany when, if the New York

fervent devotee to the cause of the
Russian revolution - until he was
caught "chiseling" by Soviet author

Davis No Longer On
LOYALTY Board

The resignation of Tom J. Davis
from the federal loyalty review board
to seek the Republican senatorial
nomination in Montana was an
nounced today by the Civil Service
Commission.
Hatch act requirements which pro-
hibit federal employees from running
for political office made it necessary
for Mr. Davis to withdraw from the
loyalty board.
The resignation of the Butte lawyer
reduces the number of loyalty board
members to %.

Perhaps the Marshall planners have
exceeded the appropriation for Greece
as much as for Turkey. George Polk,

ing letters from our friends in Greece,
Polk's body was washed up one morn
ing in Saloniki bay. His hands and

Reader Is Disturbed
Over Mikes Vote
On Mundt Bill

Dear Friend:-I say Friend because
your paper shows you are a true
Friend of the farmer laborer and
disturbed about an article by Randle
Clark upholding Mike Mansfield and
Stassen. He seems to be misin-
formed at the seriousness of the
Mundt-Nixon bill although he has
done swell job in the past Should
this bill pass he will have undone all
he had previously accomplished, as
this bill is to kill all organizations
and quiet all people who have fought
hard for all the good things we now
enjoy and will still enjoy The senate
and the President must show more
foresight than the lower house We
must never forget that one wrong
move at the right time can undo all
we can do in a long time. This bill
if enacted could lay the groundwork
for doing away with REA, reclama-
tion power development, also the
Co-ops which are the main stays of
democracy in the U.S.A.
We have one fascist law now known
as the Taft-Hartley labor law to con-
troll labor. Do we want one now to
control all people and organizations
that speak up for Democracy? That's
what the Mundt-Nixon bill will do.
Yours,

following resolutions which were
adopted by the convention:
l. We thank the city of Great Falls
and the various hotels and facilities
who by their interest and assistance
have made our convention in the city
both pleasant and productive.
2. We again congratulate the Off
GERS and employees of the regional
co-operatives who by their sincere in
terests and skill, have assured us an
other successful year.
g. If your regional co-operatives are
to continue to serve you effectively
and especially if they are to improve
their services, adequate capital and
financing is more essential today than
ever before and will be even more i'm
portant in the immediate future. We
therefore urge every Montana farmer
to endorse his faith in our regional
co-operatives and his desire to insure
their permanent stability by purchas-
ing the capital securities of the reg
ionals upon a basis which will give
them a fair and reasonable opportun
| ity to supply the funds necessary for
that purpose.
A. We urge that no material change
be made in the operation and func
tioning of Farm Credit Administra
ton; that there be no lessening of the
credits and benefits now granted
farmers and farm co-operatives under
the Farm Credit Act and other federal
farm acts; and we believe that farm
ers should be given the opportunity
to acquire ownership of the Bank for
Co-Operatives.
s. We earnestly believe that the
provisions of the federal revenue code
which exempt farmer co-Operatives,
which meet the requirements of the
statute, from the payment of income
taxes and which have been approved
by every congress since 1916, should
not be changed. We therefore urge
our representative in congress to
make every effort TO prevent any
in these provisions and we
further recommend to all members of
farm cO-Operatives in Montana that
they actively interest themselves to
prevent the repeal of modification of
these provisions.
6. We recommend that the two joint |
chairmen of this convention be au-
-hOrized to effectuate the purpose of |
The above stated resolutions. |
