REALISTIC LIBERALS MUST LOOK
AGHAST AT TRUMAN

The attitudes of ADA seem to me
evasive and unrealistic. The real adj
ministration policies are not what Mr..
Truman says, but they are how Mr..
Snyder and others of his administra-
ton act on domestic issues and how
General Marshall and his military and
Wall Street colleagues actually con-
duct our foreign relations. I can agree
with most of what Mr. Truman says;
ton does. So I think must any real
istic liberal.
Yet the ADA quite generally refuses
to face the facts; many old hands,
who must certainly see through the
glossy surface into the frightening
reality of events, talk as though they
were on leave from the Treasury or
the Department of State and possess
ed no minds of their own.
In contrast Henry Wallace has
spoken with increasing strength and
clarity straight out of his mind and
heart with cold and fearless logic.
His actions and his analyses have
been those of man with conscien-
tous concern for the American ira
dition of progressive action. Your
group is inclined to be critical of
him for appeasing communists. He
has clearly done no such thingI He
has merely refused to be confused
by DOGGY as old as American poll
tics. have come to believe that
this ADA criticism is being used to
conceal the frightened consent of
the ADA group to an aggressive and
dangerous foreign policy and to it's

Deputy Registrars

Reports have reached the
Voice that some boards of coun-
ty commissioners have been re-
fusing to appoint deputy regis
trars in the various precincts in
their counties. The appointment
of such registrars is MANDA-
TORY under Montana laws and
any such refusal by commission
ers is a direct violation of the
law.
In a word, don't LET recaIci-
trant commissioners kid you about
such appointing being a PEROG-
ALIVE of his board-it's a duty.
Should you be forced to take
legal action in the district court,
your attorney should apply for a
writ of mandamus.

RExF0RD TUGWELL TELLS WHY HE RESIGNED
FROM AMERICANS FOR DEMOCRATIC ACTION
From The Progressive Citizen

From The Progressive Citizen
Text of a letter from Rexford G.
Tugwell to Leon Henderson, chairman
of executive committee, Americans
for Democratic Action. Mr.. Tugwell
is now a co-chairman of the National
Wallace-for-President committee.
My dear Leon:
| have your letter of 19 January ask
ing me to be one of the ADA group to
meet in Philadelphia, 21-23 February,
for a demonstration of 'the strength
the cohesion, and the leadership of
American liberalism in this critical
year.
This is call which precipitates a
decision which has been growing in
my mind for some time. So far as
ADA is concerned l shall have to be
counted out. / have concluded prayer
fully that it does not move toward
strength and cohesion among liberals.
In fact I think it demonstrates pre-
cisely the opposite.
Joined the ADA quite innocentIy,
feeling that ! ought to belong to any
group of American liberals who were
bent on expressing the desire CT
many citizens for an end to domes-
tic exploitation and foreign aggres-
sion. | did not realize that the split
from the Progressive Citizens of
A
Henry WalIace's revolt from corn
paisance and supineness. now
believe that what prevents you and
others from following his magnifi-
cent leadership is a fear of the con-
sequences inherent in his clear and
fearless statement of the liberal d.
lemma.

the Reclamation fund, without con
gressional approval.
Under pressure, the authors agreed
to lengthen the period that power
revenues could have to pay off the
excess irrigation costs, and reduce the
interest charged to the power opera
lions. The Bureau of Reclamation
won a further compromise, permitting
it to continue to use one-fifth OF the
interest paid by power to offset the
excess irrigation costs.
Lobby Takes over
But when the measure came before
the house of representatives the
house put teeth in it to suit the
Power Lobby. 1t prohibited use of
any interest money to substitute irri-
CATION 1t threw out the extended
amortization period. And it forbids
the Bureau of Reclamation from start
ing any project without congressional
approval.
The situation is an intricate one,
but needs to be understood by all per-
sons interested in Missouri Valley
development.
Most large irrigation projects where
irrigators alone can pay the full cost
already have been built. There re-
main projects, however, where the
combined power and irrigation bene-
fits will make the project self-liquidat-
ing. In some instances, irrigation will
not pay for the cost of irrigation
works. But power revenues will be

RADIO Water Conservation Commission
and backed by the National Reclama-
ton Association, has ''bitten back
at it's sponsors.
Stone, through Congressman Rock
well of Colorado, originally proposed
the bill to prohibit the Bureau of
Reclamation from using interest on
the power investment in Reclamation
projects to retire excess irrigation
costs. AS they originally drafted it.,
it would have forced up power rates,
but would not have interfered with
Bureau of Reclamation's rights to
start self-liquidating projects, out of

A LESSON?

The story of the Rockwell bill
should be an excellent lesson to
western politicians who are flirting
with the power lobby.
The original Rockwell bill was
free ride for the power companies
as it's authors knew. But the
companies did not hesitate, after
getting free ride part way by
courtesy of Messrs. Stone and
Rockwell, to throw their hosts out
of the engine and take over the
operation themselves, going far
beyond the original destination
Stone and Rockwell are now pub
licly wringing their hands over
their own handiwork.

peace. Inc former vice pres
ldent, who is running for the
presidency as an Independent
in 1913, read the group parts
of a 30-page statement which
he filed, then answered ques-
tons, mostly hostile, for over
an hour. In opening he came
right to his main point:
81 know that the American people
want to respond to the desperate
European need for help with the same
selfless generosity they showed in
wartime. But | have reluctantly come
to the conclusion that the European
Recovery Plan (ERP) presented to
congress is the wrong way.
What the people of Europe need
today is a lendlease program for
peace. They are engaged in a fight
against hunger and chaos. What they
are getting is a blueprint for war"
In Accord With Original
Marshall Plan
Wallace said he distinguishes be-
tween the original Marshall plan,
which he termed fine words spoken
by Secretary Marshall last June" and
the ERP presented to congress -
which he termed "a new version of
the thoroughly discredited Truman
doctrine" Logical result of ERP, he
said, is seen today in Greece, where
conditions are worse than when Amer
lea started sending material and arms
to prop up the Greek monarchy
The committee members listened in
silence as Wallace declared that the
Taft-Hartley act and ERP go hand in
hand, since a labor-curbing law has
been found essential by important
sponsors of the program to prevent
strikes in essential industries.
"Under the alleged need to sub
ordinate our entire domestic well
fare to ERP," he said, workers and
their unions are asked to make
every conceivable sacrifice includ-
ing acceptance of Taft-Hartley. But
big business uses ERP and Taft
Hartley to weaken unions and to !
undermine their living standards
and working conditions"
Beyond this, said Wallace, "ERP
entails abridgement of our civil liber-
les and an even further INFLAMMATION

If ever there was a question
of a doubt in any Montana
voters mind whether Congress
man D'Ewart represents THE
PEOPLE of the eastern dis
trict, or whether he is lock,
stock and barrel in league with
the power trust, that doubt, by
Congressman's D'Ewart's sup
port of the Rockwell Reclama-
ton bill, should now be dis
PEELED. Favorable as was the
original bill to the power trust,
after the power lobby had fin
ished working it over, it was
so manifestly unfair to western
irrigation that even Congress
man Rockwell Or, Colo.) was
forced to vote against its ap-

to be Montana's next governor, be-
trayed the farmers of Montana, we

Lillian Underwood says. Noel doesn't know
It yet, he only came in after the man had
been taken away. then Noel can deal with
Mary's very natural filters, and you and !
can get in some much needed sleep"
WAS glad to follow Lillian's
suggestion, for | knew that Noel
was the best one to deal with Mary
in her present nervous fear for my
husband, and knew also that he
would resent any one save himself
caring for her. So l quickly and
briefly told the story Of the marau-

ing him down to the hideaway, and
Of the unexpected presence Of Mr..
"X.". my fathers F.B.I. aide, on the
scene.
"Mr. * lowering in our vicinity

ry over her uncle patiently lessened

means cloudy skies followed by
thunder storms"

her. "And now that you've heard
everything, suppose you let your
