recognized that another exodus of
population, with its attendant deteri-
Grafton of business and employment
conditions could happen now. In
many respects, conditions today ap-
pear to be similar to those prevail
ing just prior to Pearl Harbor when
the Montana wartime population
and business decline commenced. The
re-armament program and the Euro
pean Aid program have upped the de-
mand and wages for workers in the
highly industrialized states. The
increased tempo of recruitments by
the armed forces must eventually be
felt. The ratio of migration into
Montana is flattening out. 1t there

state of Montana and all of it's peo-
pie that offsets to this trend be
established in the form of new indus
try, new projects, new agriculture
and new reclamation as rapidly as
possible so that the Treasure State

employment and employer gains and
go on to further employment stabil-
ization and Its attendant prosperity.

Court

Cleveland OPP label
ing of a person as Communist is
libel per Sc - of itself - Common
Pleas Judge Frank j. Merrick ruled
here in the first decision of its kind
in Ohio.
The decision means that an indi-
vidual enormously publicized as a
Communist is entitled to damages, if
he sues, without being required to
show he has been damaged. Here
tofore damage had to be proved, with
courts regarding the libel as per
quod = by implication or inference
only.
The decision was issued in con-
nection with $4,000 libel suit filed
by Herman D. Burrell, filling station
operator, agains John P. Moran, pub
Usher of pamphlet, Information For
and Burt w. and Frank
B. Harmon, of the Lakeside Printing
Co., which printed the pamphlet.
Merrick commented that in 1889
it was deemed libelous per Sc to write
of a man as an anarchist, in 1915 as
a, socialist and in 1926 as a red.
''It is the opinion of this court
that it is libelous per Sc in our pres
ent era to enormously write of man
as a Communist or of Communist
sympathy" the opinion concluded.

now pending against Newspaper

BY ARTHUR GARFIELD

In upsetting all the "dopesters'
the American people have shown
that the progressive program OF
Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal is
very much a part of their hope and
their aspirations.
The victory over reaction must
not, however, be taken for granted.
There must be vigilance on our own
part to insure the carrying out of
campaign promises. The ballot box
results have now to be transformed
into legislation and administrative
actions on behalf of the people, and
against the anti-union, anti-peace
forces in America who supported
Dewey.
The increasing signs of a pending
recession, or depression, make more
urgent that price relief, housing leg
islation and fair tax program be-
come effective without delay. The
layoffs now spreading in our indus
try and in others are a clear indica-
ton of the rapidity with which ex-
orbitant prices have dried up the
postwar reservoir of purchasing
power.
