Wilmington.
Presented by Colonel J. Paul
Heinel, former commanding officer
OF the State Guard Regiment, Col
onel Nicholson told of experien-
ces in the European countries. par
ticularly those now controlled by
Russia.
Tells OF Underground
"The only thing these people re-
spect is force" Colonel Nicholson
declared. "The present dominated
peoples, which have a strong un-
dergrOund, will support us and helm
us II they are convinced that we
mean 1t, if we make the determin-
ed exhibition of force"
The speaker warned that the
show Of force" must be made
soon, before the young people of
these dominated countries have
been assimilated into the political
organization of Russia, and taken
into its military organization. "It is
becoming increasingly necessary
that everyone in. this nation know
something about the military
fighting business" the speaker
said, and he added that universal
military training was the only
answer in the situation in which
the country now finds itself.
In reply to the Often-heard state
ment that nations which adOpt com
pulsOTy military service always
eventually go down in defeat, Col
Onel Nicholson pointed to Switz-
erland which he said, had the
most complete compulsory military
service in Europe. He said all cit
liens of that nation keep their com
plete uniforms, small firearms and
adequate ammunition at home or
ready for immediate mobilization.
Backs State Guard
Speaking of the state guard or
ganizatiOn, Colonel Nicholson sug-
gested that it would be well to de-
mand maintenance of such an or
ganizatiOn now in view of the in
ternatiOnal situation.
He warned that Russia was
encircling the United
States. stain said he was going
to do it, and he is doing it," he de-
clared.

The success of the Labor Day Gel
ebration in Great Falls has in no
small measure been due to the kind
of Trade Union feeling which admits
solidarity and encourages all local
unions regardless of their affiliation,
or the lack of it, to join hands in this
great display of labor strength.

ATM MUSICIANS WILL
FURNISH FREE MUSIC AT
LABOR CELEBRATION

Great Falls-This year again, loo
al 365 of the American Federation of
Musicians will furnish the orchestra
for the Labor Day night show, as part
of their nationwide free public mus
ic program.
The free public music program has
in the past been made possible thru
pro-rata appropriations to some 700
local Musicians Unions, out of the re-
cording and transcription funds held
in trust for them by their Interna-
tional Executive Board, and in whose
defense of, President James c. Pc
trillo has been outstanding.
Last year the ATM spent over one
million dollars giving over ten thous-
and free performances.
This years ALLEGATION will end the
federation administered program.
Use of royalties on recordings by the
federation for this public service
were forbidden under terms of the
Taft-Hartley Act, on December 81,
1947.
At the suggestion of the Musicians
Union a music performance trust
fund was established and trustee
from the recording industry has been
appointed administrator.
What industry will do towards free
public music performance is not def
initely known.

Driving Hazards
Cincinnati Enquirer


 Autumn and winter always bring additional haz- ards for the motorist Accident rates figured on the number of cars on the road, usually increase during these months Already seasonal dangers are beginning to appear If you've done much driving recently you've noted the large number of leaves which have car peted parts of the highway They're skiddy, those leaves
 Other inducements to skiddng will appear as autumn moves toward winter. Therell be mornings when patches of ice will sections of the roads And with additional rains, therel be mud patches, particularly in areas where trucks moving dirt. These must be watched carefully if you're to avoid accidents They're slick glass!
 All three of these hazards complicated by the fact that they are not uniform. They crop out un- expectedly-often when you're breeding along over safe smooth thoroughfare at good rate of speed. When sleet or snow is falling, fellow watches his step during every driving mile But the dangers men, toned here can't be too far ahead-they must be met in an instant
 It behooves us then, to exercise extreme care dur ing the coming weeks We should cut our driving speeds particularly on cold wet mornings. The road ahead should be studied carefuly-and the motorlst should be ready at all times to cope with situations which can't be seen until they're upon him-or, better insure our own saefty but the safety of others on the nations highways. It is way to help reduce our alarmngly high accident rate

THESE DAYS
GEORGE F. SOKOLSKY THE TAX DOLLAR

No matter how it is sliced, all the government has to work with is the tax dollar If it collects S44, ,000 100000 from the American people, or any other amount, that is all that it has to spend. If it jspends more than that, it has to borrow the money or increase the taxes of the current taxpayers When it borrows, it increases the taxes of present and future tax payers.
 The constitution forbids confis- cation of privately-owned property without just compensation, but that is no assurance any longer, for the Constitution also permits the government to collect an in come tax. One provision cancels out the other. For instance, the present income tax law permits the government to collect an in come tax as high as 82 percent. If that is not confiscation, nothing is. Yet, it is altogether legal.
 When a man collects $1,000,000 as salary or even $50O,O00 he is just a show-off His actual earnings are what is left after the Federal and State taxes are paid and that is
