Lyle Standish

Lyle Standish, after two terms in
the house is now contrasting Sen. Paul
Rice for seat in the upper house.
Compared with Sen. Rice, who has
scored 1907 for the people in the
past four sessions, Rep. Standish' S
record does not look too imposing
Here it is:
In 1947 he opposed SB65, other
wise his record is identical with that
OF Rep. Atkinson noted above.
In 1949 he did a little better
two out of ID, having voted with his
on HB34 and HB165.
Otherwise, he's dead ringer for Rep.

165, was absent on HB106 and HUM

too we'll to the ideals furthered by
his famous namesake. In 1947, he
went down the 00% road with Rep.
Atkinson. In the 1949 session he did
just wee bit better-hitting 80 by
virtue of having voted right on HB
165-the cigarette sales tax. On two
others-HB281 and HJM8-he was
absent. On the eleven other import
ant measures roll called he voted
00fo with Rep. Brener.

purely company" measure stem

Senator Moss, the dean of the
legislature having first been elected
to that body from Flathead county
in the early 20's, is somewhat of
conservative bend. In 1916 Senator
Moss hit only 25@o for the people,
and in 1915, 00%. Then, in 1947, he
hit 1870, and in 1949, he came up
with a 500 box score.
The 1916 session found him vot-
ing for SB74 (see Atkinson record
for description) HJM1, the anti
MVA memorial to the Congress, and
opposing suspension of rules to con-
slider HB168, which, had it been en-
acted instead of SB74, would have
given the people the right to nomi-
nate candidates of their choice in a
primary election to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of Congressman
Jim O'Connor.

for SB94, the teacher tenure meas
ure of 1947 session. His record fol
lows:
1947 SESSION:
Supported: SB65, "riot Liability
act" (See Atkinson record).
Supported: SB92, anti-REA bill,
vetoed by Gov. Ford.
Supported: SB94, teacher tenure
act, by Moss of Flathead.
Opposed: SB1O5, providing $3.50
per week increase in payments to
disabled workers. Bill squeaked
through senate 27-26.
Supported: SB127, establishing
special police districts, and making it
possible to have deputized strike
breakers in readiness whenever a
labor dispute might come up.
Supported: SB156, prison made
was too all-inclusive, making manda-
tory that all state subdivisions
towns, schools, ETC., purchase what
ever supplies prison could furnish.
Bill was definitely discriminatory to-
ward Montana small business, labor,
farmer and all other segments of

by Burke, Yellowstone, designed to
ensure teachers of minimum salaries,
that decent standard of living might
be maintained by educational profess
sion.
Opposed: HJM3, memorial to con-
gress concerning income tax exemp-
tions. (See Atkinson record).
194s SESSION:
Supported: Sub SB15, bill designed
to reduce authority of State Land
Commissioner to that of Figure
head". Had bill become law, the state
land boards power over state lands
would have been materially reduced,
thus providing a grave threat to state
school revenue derived from graz
ing and agricultural leases of state
owned lands.
Opposed: SB34, bill by Anderson
(Teton) and James liberty to set
up uniform statewide tax assessment
and property evaluation procedures.
Tax experts considered this the foun-
1ation step in bringing about general
overhauling of states patchwork"
tax structure.
Opposed: SB36, another teacher
tenure measure by Moss, designed
to give teachers job security, and
school boards protection against ICON
tract jumping" by teachers. A very
good piece of legislation.
Supported setting up of tempo
rary un-American Activities Com
nittee.

Valley to reform Grass Conserva-

The "Montana Democrat" in APP
pealing to local workers in it's last
issue, pointed up that Buck, among
other Demos was needed in Helena.
That makes about as much sense as
saying that Montana needs either Hor-
ace Casey or John Kennedy in the
State House. Buck does have one
saving grace-he represents one more
Democratic senator should same be
needed to assure a more iberalized
party control of the upper chamber.
Otherwise, his voting record indi-
