Both measures are generally in
line with proposals developed by the
Montana Citizens Committee on Edu-
Old Age Pensions
Another measure that undoubted-
ly will be the subject of considerable
debate, would set up an Old Age
Assistance Commission, create an old
age assistance fund, earmarIing of
revenues for the fund, etc. This
measure by Mernin, Mccarthy and
Tierney, Silver Bow; Helding, Mis-
soula; Dusak, Cascade; Smith, Deer
Lodge, and Burns, Flathead, all Dem
ocrats, would provide an old age
pension maximum of 500 per month
for single person, or $3.50 for
married couple. In connection with
this proposal, it should be noted that
this bill does not provide for the
above amounts, over and above other
sources of income. Rather, under
it's terms Social Security and/or
other pensions would be considered
as part of the total, with the state
making up whatever the difference
might be.

school problems.
Farm Legislation
While no bill has yet been noticed,
there is a good chance, according
to the grapevine, that measure
similar to SD 80 of the 1947 session
may be presented again. Rural
readers will recall that that measure
which was vetoed by Governor Ford,
definitely endangered the Rural
Identification systems of the state.
Also noticed was a $4,000 appro-
priation measure by Reps. Esp (R,
Sweet Grass and Scofield (R, Pow

nary research lab at Montana expert
ment station, Bozeman. In propos-
ing this legislation, the sponsors
pointed out that the lab had done
exceptionally fine" work since it
was established in 1915 but that it
was hampered by insufficient equip
ment.

CITY COUNCIL

The Nome City Council held it's regular meeting on Monday eve ming with a good attendance.
 A letter from pr. F. Langsam was read asking the city to furn- iSh $200.00 per month toward the upkeep of the quarters of the Ter ritorial Health Nurse, Lois Mor- gan'S quarters in the hospital. The Council disapproved the request as they felt the city was not able at this time to pay the amount due to the fact that the Territorial Health Department had placed a burden on the city of other ex- penses.
 A communication from Col. D. Jamison of Marks Air Force Base was read refusing the city's re- quest for the removal of the barb ed wire on the foot bridge to the Sand Spit.
 Councilman Joe Hunt of the law and ordinance committee re- ported the sales tax ordinance was being shaped up.
 A petition was submitted by a citizens committee as a result of the special meeting held on July 26th with the following requests:
 Division of the Fire and Police department; city attorney on full time pay; publication of the finan- cial statement of the city.

WASHINGTON, (P)-President Truman today signed the new armed services unification bill. He said that this will permit the United States to progress toward "a balanced and effective national defense"

 The legislation, which strength ems secretary of defense Johnson's control over the entire military setup, drew one criticism from MT. Truman.

Supreme Court
Rules States
Can Now Ban
Shops
Decision Handed Down
Monday Seen Uphold
ing A cts Outlawing
Other Securities" OF
Unions.
By Associated Pres,

WASHINGTON - The Sunramo
court ruled on Monday of this
week that states can outlaw the
closed shop. Organized labor attOr-
neys interpreted the decision as nm
holding state bans on other tvDes
OF union security" also.
The court upheld enactments nv
three states which ban discrimiDa-
uon in employment against anv
worker because he is not a mem
Der OF a union. Thirteen other
states have adopted somewhat sim
lIar restrictions, some bv consti-
tutlOnal amendment and Others nv
act of the legislature.
Arguments in the case were de-
voted primarily to the closed sbOn
practice, under which a man can
not be hired unless he belongs to
a union.
Attorneys for the AFL and CIO
SAID, however, they believe the
state enactments which were nm
held also prohibit the so-called nm
ion shop and maintenance of mem
bership."
Directly at issue were an act
passed by the North Carolina Leg
lslature in 1947 and amendments
to the constitutions of Nebraska
and Arizona adopted in 1916.
The North Carolina act makes il
legal any agreement under which
union membership "is made a con-
dition of employment or continua-
ton of employment"
Other Securities OutIaWed
Union attorneys said this phrase
in addition to the closed
shop, these forms of union secur-
ity:
l. The union shop, under which
new workers are to join the union
within a fixed time. The federal
Iaft-Hartley Act permits the union
shop where a majority of workers
vote for it.
2. Alatntenanee of membership
under which workers decide at the
start of new contract Deriod
whether they wish to belong TO the
union. II they elect to do so, they
must continue as members through
out the life of the contract
The anti-clOsed shop section OF
the Taft-Hartley law was not di-
rectly involved. The courts opin-
-On, however, is expected to be
widely quoted in the impending de-
bates in Congress on repeal of that
