Jews May Leave Poland
Without Interference.
Envoy Says

ROME (JTA)-Jews in Poland
who wish to leave the country to
resettle in Israel can leave Poland
without the slightest interference,
Polish Ambassador to Italy Adam
Ostrowski told a press conference
here this week.
Mr.. Ostrowski declared that
according to an agreement be-
tween Poland and Israel, signed
in September, 1949, the Jews in
Poland can leave that country for
resettlement in Israel without
any obstacles" He pointed out
that Jews in Poland who leave
the country to take up perman-
ent residence in the Jewish state
will lose their Polish citizenship.

Emigration Of Israel
Bound Jews Seen
AS Leading To
Assimilation

hOINOO4N, \J L AZ - Liz SOAAA
plete disappearance of Polish
Jewry as a result of the expect
ed renewed mass emigration OF
Polish Jews to Israel and dis
indignation and assimilation of
the remainder" of the commune
ty was predicted this week in
dispatch to the London Times
from Warsaw.
Comparing the attitude of the
Polish Government with that of
other East European regimes, the
Times says that government cir
cles in Warsaw have felt for some
time that a policy of preventing
Jews from leaving the country
would be politically unwise.
Most of the Polish Jews" the
report says, suffered terribly in
German concentration camps or
while hiding out from the Ges-
tapo. Their nerves are shattered,
they have the most demonstra-
tive sense of grievance and with
their pronounced middle-clasS
background they continue to
serve as an additional source of
dissatisfaction and ferment," the
dispatch adds.
The report notes that govern
ment circles further argued that
by refusing to yield to assimi-
lation themselves, these Jews
"of Orthodox and strongly nat
ionalistic tendencies" - were ex-
ercising a strong and detrimental
influence on Jews who were anx-
ious to be assimilated. Their
speedy departure, it was contend
ed, would hasten the assimila-
ton of thousands of Polish Jews,
chiefly Communists, who decid-
ed to remain in Poland and who
will ultimately disappear in the
melting pot of the Socialist Pol
ish society"
The report estimated that there
are now some 10000 Jews occu-
plying posts in the administration
who have changed their names
and who are serving relations
with Jews and with their own
Jewish past" The article adds:
"The rest, once this Jewish residue
of opposition to Communism de-
parts, will sooner or later have
no alternative but to merge with
the rest of the population" The
dispatch concludes by noting
that although Yiddish is still
used by Jewish workers and
farmers, and may continue to be
spoken by those few remaining
here, Poland will no longer be
the center of Orthodox Jewish
culture and learning"

Montana farmer-stockman., 1949-07-15

1t has often been said that what
Montana needs is more industry. Of
course, there are several handicaps.
One of them is a comparatively small
population for the area involved.
Another is the matter of transporta-
ton costs. 1t would seem as if a lot
more manufactured products could
be made out of native material and
out of material that needs to be
shipped in that has a low transpor-
tation cost. Aluminium, for one, is
light and there is need for more
prefabricated buildings on nearly
every farm and ranch.
They could be used to increase
poultry, sheep, cattle, hogs, and a
variety of pets, as well as all kinds
of fur-bearing animals. They could
be used for garages, airplane hang
ars, and for storage which is much
needed and for all kinds of farm i'm
plements. They would add a more
cheerful appearance to many places
which now look run down by having
old unsightly buildings which are
falling apart and are of little use
for anything.
During the past 10 good years
many farm homes have been mod
ernized. A great improvement can
be noticed in most communities. 1t
always seems as if, when one party
makes their place look spick and
span, it has an influence on the
neighborhood.
Building costs have been high
Montana farmer-stockman., 1949-07-15

little use, even for salvage. 1t looks
as if the most economical way to get
rid of them would be to light a
match.
It has often been said one reason
Montana needs more industries is to
keep more of our promising young
folks in Montana in place of going
away to other states to seek more
and better opportunities. Recently,
during commencement exercises, one
heard many fine commencement adj
dresses where the speakers described
the vast resources and opportunities
there are in our Treasure state.
There is not any doubt about
them being here, all right, but it
seems there is a lack of action. There
is a lack of organization and it is
time steps were taken to get the
ball rolling.
The Montana State college at
Bozeman has one excellent engineer
ing department. There is going to be
a surplus of engineers. The Montana
Farmer-Stockman has printed and
shown many sketches of handy farm
ideas. Some of them should have
a good commercial value, not only
for local use, but could be shipped
to other states, as well; that is, if
they were manufactured in mass
production and distributed economi-
cally. 1t is difficult for beginners or
individuals to get going on a big
scale. What is needed now are cor
porations with a lot of small stock
holders who are willing to invest
in the development of youth and
in the future of Montana.-R. w.
McConnen, Yellowstone county.

POINT RACKET ARTISTS

YOUR ARTICLE in the June 18th
issue of Northumberland Stockman
on the point Racket Artist" was
very timely. l had no soone finished
reading it when one of them came
to my home. A light colored jeep
was driven by a larger man but a
tough looking boy dressed in farm
clothes was doing the selling. His
overalls and plaid shirt were brand
new and he certainly was no farm
boy.
He started a long-winded ha-
rangue about a $500 prize he was
trying to win and vaguely mentioned
the schools at Bozeman as sponsors
of the contest. He asked if I had
received a card from "Dr. Fraser"
about this contest and of course I
had not and l know of no one by that
name. By this time l was beginning
to get an idea what it was all about
and I asked, "Is it magazines?" He
loudly exclaimed, "Oh no, it isn't
magazines"
He then said he was a local boy
from Billings and handed me a badly
worn paper, the front page of which
gave his name as Donald Redman
and his description. / turned it over
and there on the back were listed
dozens of magazines. I handed it
back to him and told him 1 wasn't
interested. He said he wasn't trying
to sell me any magazines, he just
wanted my renewals. I told him
again I wasn't interested. He then
said in an aggrieved tone, "Then
you don't want to help a local boy?"
I said "No" and he left.
The jeep didn't drive in the yard
so I had no opportunity to get the
license plate numbers. This all hap
pened today and I am writing while
it is fresh in my mind. I do not
believe any Montana schools are
sponsoring any such contest.
1t seems like they think just be-
we live in the country we will
swallow any sort of bunk. Thanks
to magazines like yours we are well
informed even though we live ir
the country.-Mrs. Fred Jacobsen
Yellowstone County.

ties of these positions.
If they appear to be high in
relation to the present salaries,
that is because the present salaries
are ridiculously low. AS recent
ly pointed out, the Is top execu-
tives of a single private corpora
ton in this country are paid more
than the aggregate salary now
paid to all the $50 or so Federal
officers to whom this bill applies.
Il have also pointed out that
these officers have been passed
over time and again when the
Congress made adjustments in the
compensation of other officers and
employees. Senators and Repre-
sentatives have increased their
own compensation by more than
100 per cent since 1924. while the
salary for many of these execu-
tive Offices has not been increased
at all. Over the same period the
salaries of most Federal judges
have also been doubled and the
others have been increased by
more than two-thirds.
Substantial increases have been
made recently in the compensation

dent and the Speaker of the House

today If pickets try to interrupt
operations at some non-union
mines.
Fourteen coal operators in the
Clearfleld area today decided to
reopen their non-union mines to-
morrow. They said their miners
voted to go back to work. The
operators represent 80 mines,
some of them small.
The non-union workings closed
down last week as bands of pickets
roved the bituminous fields after
Mr.. Lewis miners walked out.
State police reinforcements are
patrolling the area.
There have been reports of
violence from pickets in several
States, including West Virginia
where 10000 miners are idle.
Last week pickets closed several
small non-union mines near
Charleston. w. Va. The pickets
said they'd be back today.
There was little activity in most
coal mining regions during the
week end. This walkout is moth
ing unusual for the older miners
they've quit work voluntarily 81
times in the last 80 years.
This year the diggers have been
idle twice before for a week or
longer. In March they quit the
pits for two weeks and in June
for another week. And, since
their contract ran out last June
80. most of them have been work

Mr.. Lewis orders.
Now they're on what the UNIV

Mr.. Lewis Is set to resume con-
tract talks with Northern and
Western operators Thursday at
White Sulphur Springs, w. Va.
His big problem is trying to get
the miners pension plan back into
operation and to stabilize it.
The operators finance the pen
sion plan and other welfare bene-
fits by paying 20-cents-a-ton roy
atty payments. Some Southern
operators quit paying-contending
they didn't have to do so because
the contract has expired.
Shortly afterwards trustees of
the fund cut off payments. It
