year. In other words, as the
Chamber of Commerce of the
United States says, Education
is an investment in people,"
1t appears to us that we
should IVORY more over the fact
that the amount spent for al
coholic beverages has increased
much more rapidly and now
takes more than three times as
much for our national income
as does our elementary and sec
ondary schools. Then, something
can be said about dollars for
slot machines, punchboards and
tobacco.
Montana is one of the three
leaders in the Nation in its per
child expenditure for schools. It
also leads in the pertcapita con-
sumption of some of the above
mentioned So-called luxurieS.
We are proud of the fact that
our people see fit to spend
more per child for education
than most other states. That is
a compliment to our people. We
are also proud of the fact that
we are one of the leading states
in the per capita income and
can thus afford to spend that
amount. According to DR.. Paul
Good of the C. of C. of the U.
S. in 1948 we will probably be
one of b ethree leading states
and may top the nation in per
capita income. It appears that
we shall exceed $1,000 for each
man, woman and child for 1913.
We are also proud of the fact
that Montana was second high
last year in the per capita re-
tail sales. Apparently, high re-
tail sales come when and where
we have a population trained to
earn a high income. Yes, the
C. G. of the U. S. is right when
it disqualification is an in
vestment in people,.

more in 1861, while the aver
age for the United States was
$134.
Let us point to a study by DR..
John K. Norton of Teachers
College of Columbia University.
CDR. Norton is chairman of the
20-member Educational Policies
Commission on which we find
such leaders as Pres. James B.
Conant of Harvard, Pres. DWIGHT
D. Eisenhower of Columbia, and
Chancellor George A. Selke of
Montana.) This study dealt with
the "~sparsity'' factor as it af-
fected the cost of education.
The "sparsity" factor refers to
the fact that we have only one
child Of grade and high school
age for every 100 acres of land.
This brings about small class
room units, high cost of trans
portation, high per pupil build
ing costs, etc. It showed that
Montana was spending $33 out
of every 500 for that one item

VA GUARDIANSHIP SERVICE
PROTECTS ESTATES OF VETS
World War I veterans and
their families are given pro
lection under the Veterans Adj
miniStration guardianship sery-
ice in the handling of any es-
tate derived from government
payments made on behalf of
the veteran.
VA guardianship service is
provided, without cost, to World
War / veterans, minor depend
ents and incompetent benefic-
iaries. 4 ~
Responsible for carrying out
the guardianship program are
chief attorneys in the VA re-
.gional office in each state. Act
ing in accord with federal and
state laws and VA regulations,
the VA ATTORNEYS supervise
guardians appointed by state
(probate or county courts, as
well as legal custodians recog-
nized by the VA. Each attorney
conducts the program in the re-
spective area under his juris-
diction.

QUESTION on THE WEEK

@. Should a VA claim ever
be filed by a veteran who has
been dishonorably discharged?
A It is. always the privilege
of the veteran to file a claim;
but to show entitlement, it must
be established to the satisfac-
ton of the Administrator of
Veterans Affairs that the vet
eran was insane at the time of
commission of the act for
which the dishonorable dis
charge was issued.

No spine Dream

Back there when President Roose-
welt was plugging for a national
income Of $50 billions business lead
ers scoffed. It was only 90 billions
then. But II is more than 200 bill
lions today. President Truman says
it should be 300 billion and that's
what he's working for. He says the
%,OO0-a-year family sis no pipe
dream" and this reporter thinks
the business leaders better believe
him. They scoffed at 5000 air
planes. They scoffed at 90 million
industrial workers. but both came
to pass.

Program Attacked
IN WASHINGTON

TN one of the most bitterly critical
bulletins this reporter has yet
read relative 10 President Tru-
mans fair deal program, the, coun-
Gil Of state chambers of commerce
boldly charges President Truman
has formally launched his cam
paign for the establishment Of q
welfare state in America"
The council Of state chambers OF
commerce is composed Of 80 state
chambers of commerce and the re-
lease came from their headquarters
at 1922 H. street, NV, here iii
Washington.
The release is signed by Alvin A.
Burger, research director, and pur-
ports to show that if the six major
domestic plans of President Tru-
man are enacted into law, not only
will we have a welfare state in
America, but that from is to "a
billion dollars will annually be
added to the tax bill Of the tax
payers.
The release lists these six issues:
federal housing, federal aid to edu-
cation, national health insurance,
liberalized social security, the
Brannan farm program and the
utilization of natural resources for
more public power. This latter pro-
gram the council referred to as
LIBERALIZATION Of electric power"
Insofar as this reporter can
determine, the researcher had
set up his own cost figures on
all these programs and dumped
them into an annual appropria-
ton, to get his totals up to 34I
billion annually added to the
tax bill. For instance the fed
eral housing legislation enacted
by this congress provides for
commitments in loans and APP
propriations up to Is billion,
GAS million dollars, but certain
! ly not in any one year. The COM
! mitment is for a 40-year pro-
gram.
The researcher says the 'begin-
ning'' price on federal aid to edu-
cation which totals 800 million dol
lars in the bill now before congress
'is expected to increase steadily
to two billion annually" Fact is
however, the bill doesn't say that.
The Presidents estimate on med
zeal insurance, fully underway, is
4 per cent payroll tax or about 5.8
billion. but Burgers estimate APP.
parently is II to las billions an.
nually. And SO on through the list.
