People From All Groups Worked
Together
THERE is yet another angle to
the significance of this Congressional
victory. Though the scare term
creeping socialism" was raised time
and again by its opponents; though
it was misrepresented as a waste of
taxpayers dollars; the people of Mon
tana, particularly of the "hi-line'
region, knew what they wanted
and needed if they were to secure
the benefits of inexpensive power pro-
duced at public dams, instead of the
power company getting subsidized
to the full extent of such energy
being produced and dumped" at a
ridiculously low figure. And, knowing
their needs, rural people, members
of labor, business and professional
men, state officials, worked together
to bring their case before the ma
tional Congress.
Such cooperation is not too COM
mon in America, but, certainly, when
it is employed, it can pay off hand
somely for ALL the people.
