Report Of Legislative Coordinating Committee

Appointment by Chairman William
Pilgeram of a 5-man committee : to
call on Gov. John w. Bonner and
register strong protest against the
setting up of Montana un-American
activities committee, as proposed in
the state senate, highlighted the
fourth meeting of the co-ordinating
committee Monday evening, at the
Helena Labor Temple.
In expressing opposition to such a
committee the feeling was general
that establishment of same would
bring about an abridgment of con-
stitutional rights, for purely political
gislator-members stated that the
Legion membership at large had not
been polled prior to the state de-
partment having asked establishment
of such committee. They further
pointed out that rank-and-file legion
Opinion of those present was that
the purpose of the committee was
little concerned with exposing "sub-
versives" but rather was aimed at
intimidating all liberal thought in
Montana. Members of the senate's
Investigating" committee are Aron-
son Or, Glacier) Gosman Or, Bea-
verhead), Simon I'd, Jefferson).
Although the senate vote was
34-15 with six Democrats joining the
majority in voting for
such a committee, and one Republi-
can (Mahoney, Garfield) opposing its
formation, the vote in the house was
almost as decisive in opposition. The
six senate Democrats who voted for
the committee were: Bovey (Cas-
cade); Buck CARTER; Lehrkind
(Gallatin); Lynch (Chouteau); ST.
mon (Jefferson) and Tibbals min
eraD. Cremer (Sweetgrass), an in
also voted for the motion.
The house vote was 52-33. (Com-
plete roll calls will be provided later

claimed that the machines would OPP

from them. Admitting that the

CORPORATE PROFITS

Of 280,533 corporations in the
u. S., 3409 of them, or about 1 per
cent, had incomes which totalled
more than twice as much as the re-
naming 80 per cent. They had
combined incomes of more than $40
billion as compared to So billion for
their less fortunate brothers.
There are only 773 corporations
earning above SIS million, yet this
small group of monopolies showed
incomes of SIS billion or more than
half of the $28 billion income of
all corporations.
Of this group 388 cartels ac-
counted for more than $12 billion,
or 43 per cent of the total for all
corporations.

creases cause higher prices?

! 1913 by Mahoney (R, Garfield). This
measure, should it be approved
would require public utilities to file
an annual statement of the value of
all property for rate-making pur-
poses, and prescribing the method
of assessing such properties for tax
alton. ;" 1t has been long known
that certain utilities keep two sets
of books-one for rate making pur-
poses which show considerably
higher valuations, and the other, a
lower set of valuations, for tax pay
ing purposes. This measure de-
serves active support from the peo-
pie of Montana.
Also approved was House Joint
Memorial 8, which requests the con-
gress and the President to see that
publicly constructed power plants be
used for the benefit of the public and
that cooperative distribution sys-
TENS be allowed priority in obtaining
power therefrom.
Reports are that about so per cent
of power produced at Fort Peck
Quilt with 5000 million tax dollars)
goes through private channels before
being sold to the public, at mark
up of 500 to 900 per cent.
! Another memorial approved is
Hum which is now in the senate.
This memorial, supporting the fed
eral proposal, is known as the Vet
erans' RFC. Under the proposal,
the RFC would be empowered to
make loans to small industry in the
aggregate of SIS billion. Proponents
emphasize that availability of such
loan funds could do much to bring
new small industry to Montana. This
measure is endorsed by both the ma
tional and state VFW organizations.
Anti Coop Legislation, Etc.
For several years now the Mime
apolis grain merchants, the private
power utilities and others have been
attempting to steamroller through
both the congress and various legis-
latures, double taxation legislation
against co-operatives, as a means of
destroying the Coop, movement. Two
years ago, the Tax Equality Assn.

Both tanker overcharges and ex-
horbitant oil profits are known to
the so-called ECA watchdog commit
tee, the Joint Congressional Commit
tee on Foreign Aid, but no mention
of either was made in its recent pub
lie report.
Hoffman has been trying since last
February to end overcharges on oil
exports financed by ECA, and he
obtained help from Sen. Joseph c..
O'Mahoney Cd, Wyo), who made a
radio talk on the subject last March.
The December letter was first
published in an oil trade journal.
The ECA itself had not released the
letter and its own officials decline
to discuss it, though they do not
deny its authenticity. The letter
pleads for competitive prices reflect
ing lower prices of production out
side the U. S.
The same profit margins are en-
ioyed by British-owned companies in
Iran and Iraq, for their oil, too, is
marketed on dollar basis and priced
fob. Gulf of Mexico. This is also
true of American, British and Dutch
in Latin America.
"The result" as one govern
ment official put it, SIS that mill |
lions of dollars presumably loaned
Europe for reconstruction are be-
ing funneled off into the pockets j
of the big oil monopolies."

for personnel and equipment of the

fraternity to secure revenues to rul

have legalized slot machines for the
sake of revenue, then, let's do this
thing right-let's make a state mo-
nopoly proposition of them, and get
all the "take" instead of cutting the
syndicate boys, the "musclemen" !,
and other hoodlums in on the racket
The fact remains, there are plenty
of legitimate tax sources available,
and, if the legislature but had the
courage, it would aggressively go
after seeing that revenue was forth
coming from those sources. We the
people gain nothing from the furth-
erance of gambling, lottery devices,
ETC., and, in the end result such
legalization will only constitute an
increasing draining away of econom-
ic purchasing power from legitimate
lines of trade to the benefit of the
Heasy money crowd, and the large
corporate interests, who, because of
such licensing, will be able to con-
tinue lodging their just proportion
of the tax burden.

companies a letter privately
urging them to lower their
prices on shipments from Ara
bia and other points outside
the United States.
At present the world oil market is
based on Gulf of Mexico prices, and
buyers of Arabian or Latin-Amer-
lean oil pay those prices, Irrespective
of production costs elsewhere.
Arab Oil Costs SAC
Texas crude now sells at about
S2.65 barrel in the Gulf ports.
Arab oil delivered at Persian Gulf
ports costs about "a cents a barrel,
including royalties to Arab poten-
tates. This was the figure given by
the Arabian American Oil Co. itself
in the negotiations which led Socony-
Vacuum and Standard of New Jersey
to associate themselves recently with
Teas Co. and Standard of California
in the ownership of Aramco.
This Arab oil is sold on virtual
ly the same price basis as Texas
crude and the margin between its
34-cent cost and the $2.65 Gulf
price indicates the profit possibili-
ties opened up by ECA financing
of Middle East oil exports to oil
starved western Europe.
Shipments Doubled
Shipments have more than dou-
bled and latest figures available for

100000 barrels a month passing

Of this amount some 100000 |

refined. Experts here estimate the
profit margin on refined is even /
wider than on crude, since wage
levels and other costs are much
lower in the Middle East. They be-
ieve that 81 barrel is a conserva-
i've estimate for excess profits over
The most ample margins. At that
,ate excess profits would be about
S25O,000.00O year.
Other Fantastic Profits
In addition, profits termed fan
astic" are being earned on tankers
,wned by subsidiaries of these same
companies. There are records here

hipments to Europe which were 29O

Accepts Call To
Wisconsin Church

Rev Loyal T. Riley, pastor since
December 8, 1945, of St. Timothy
English Lutheran congregation in
Menasha, Wisconsin, has accepted the
pastorate of Bayshore Evangelical
Lutheran church, Whtefish Bay, the
same state.
Rev. Riley, native of this county,
went to Menasha following service in
the navy for about three years where
he was a lieutenant commander in the
Chaplain corps. Prior to his naval
service he had been pastor at Evans
vile, Ind, and at other cities in Indi-
ana.
He and his family will leave Men
asha about November l. During Pas
tor Riley's tenure in the st. Timothy
church the congregation has grown
from 264 adult members to 554, with
an additional 25 or 30 to be received
into membership soon, to bring to a
total S18 baptized members, more
than double the original group. Also
during Rev. Riley's pastorship, a
building program has developed and
a building fund started which will
eventually see erection of church
and parish house. The congregation is
at present meeting in a theater.
Rev. Riley is son of E. J. Riley,
Red House, and the late Mrs. Riley.
