BUTTE LABOR COUNCILS
WANT UNIVERSITY FUNDS
RELEASED BY EXAMINERS

Two Butte labor groups went on
record Tuesday night as favoring
the release of 100000 of the $5,-
100000 University of Montana build
ing fund so that construction can be-
gin as soon as possible. The money
the groups suggested be freed is an
undisputed portion. The ALLEGATION
of the remaining fund is being dis
puted. Five of the six branches of
the university are involved in the
dispute.
The groups acting to release the
funds here were the Butte Building
Trades council and the Silver Bow
Trades and Labor Council.
The Building Trades council passed
the following resolution:
at is requested that the undis-
puted 100000 of the University
of Montana bond fund be released
at once. This would provide work
for the unemployed construction
labor and would make it possible for
the buildings to be far enough
along so that they could be worked
on through the winter months. This !
would aid in relieving unemployment |
in the critical winter months. In
addition, our children need the new
facilities that could be built by the
81, 100000. We therefore request |
that you release this undisputed
portion of the bond money at once"
The Building Trades council also
decided to ask the individual unions
in the council to write the Montana
board of examiners urging it to
release the undisputed funds.
The Trades and Labor council
said:
owe respectfully request that the
board of examiners release the I'M
disputed 100000 of the Greater
of Montana bond fund at
once. This provides needed en-
Dloyment for workers and helps
give much-needed buildings to our
schools. If work is delayed much
onger the buildings will not be far
enough along so that we can work
IN them in the winter time. We
therefore hope you will see fit to
'elease this money at once"
The statements will be sent to the
tate board of examiners Montana

In the course of panel discussion
concerning various phases of the de-
velopment of hydro-electric power in
the Northwest, held at the student
union building at Montana UNIVERSE
ty in Missoula, Sunday afternoon,
April 2, little that was new to stu
dents of the question was developed
but the argument waxed warm as
carried on between Associate Justice
Lee Metcalf of the Montana Supreme
court, former Judge Left Erickson,
proponents of eva and public power
and Harry Mccain, Montana Power
Co. division superintendent, and Ger
aid Skibbins, secretary of the Montana
Chamber of Commerce, representing
the private power monopoly.
Similar presentations of matters
of public concern should be encour-
aged and the University is to be com
mended for making it's facilities avail
able to the end that information on
all subjects of public interest can be
discussed openly with all flavors of
viewpoint given equal freedom of ex-
pression-a situation which too often
fails of realization due to the con-
trolled type of press with which the
republic is currently cursed. Personal
ly | believe that the old fashioned
debate system would afford auditors
more real information because it
could avoid personalities more and
hn IL,
discussion. Nevertheless the panel dis
cussion method is very desirable in
world where free discussion of pub
lie matters is too often restricted
only to the side of the argument
which happens to possess ample purse
or controls the means of dissemina-
ton of information, or both.
The discussion Sunday developed
that Skibbins, secretary of the Mon
tana Chamber of Commerce, possesses
some viewpoints which | find diff !
cult to square with what had always |
considered to be the primary pur-
pose of any chamber of commerce,
viz, the development of the area
served by such a business organiza-
ton
Mr.. Skibbins endorsed the theory
that Montana needs no irrigation.
In fact he is against it. That the
secretary of an organization known
as the Montana Chamber of Com
merce should adopt a viewpoint
that further development of irri-
CATION in Montana is not desirable
seems strange.

Lodge Proposes Program
OF Subversion in Russia
By The Assoeioted Press

NEW YORK, Mar. 13.-Repre-
sentative Lodge, Republican, of
Connecticut proposes that "a front
of internal aggression" be formed
within the U. S. S. r.
He called yesterday for a "war
OF subversion" against Russia in
an effort to end the cold war and
international stalemate.
He said only a "clandestine eff
fort"-costing three or four hun
dred million dollars-"can pos
sibly break the deadlock and pre-
cipitate reliable agreements with
the Kremlin in many critical areas
of the world"
Mr.. Lodge made the proposal in
a speech at rally closing a two
day celebration of the Hungarian
revolution in 1948, held under
auspices of the American Hun
garian Federation.
Mr.. Lodge was asked how he
would put such a campaign into
action. His reply was, '"That
would be up to the c. I. A."
The United States Central In
telligence Agency. according to
the Congressional Directory, has
the duty of co-ordinating intelli-
gence activities of the Govern
ment in the interests of national

Socialist Opposition Seen.
Should liberals and Social
Christians join, the coalition
could command the parliamentary
majority necessary to vote the
King back to his throne. But
some observers thought the So
cial Christians, if the Liberals op-
posed the Kings return. might
call for Parliament's dissolution
and hope to win complete control
of both houses in the subsequent
election.
Any further steps in the King s
favor were expected to run into
fierce opposition from the So
cialists, who waged the bitterest
prereferendum fight against Leo
pold. Already there were reports
that strikes were likely to develop
soon in such Socialist strongholds

in Western Pennsylvania, the
names were of persons in that
area.
Asked about document en-
titled. Building the Labor Youth
League, Mr.. Cvetic said that
Community Party organizers dis
tributed literature on college and
high school campuses. The idea,
he said. was to find young people
who show sympathy with the
Communist Party line.
The work of bringing them
closer to the party, he went on,
would then be carried on at
dances. bowling leagues and
church club meetings. Then. he
said, the young people would be
invited to an open meeting of the
Labor Youth League to get a
atered-down2 version of the
party line. The indoctrination.
he explained. would be gradual, to
keep them from being scared OF.
Fund Drive Exposed.
One of the documents was a
financial statement on results of
a Nation wide campaign to raise
$50 1000 to organize the Labor Youth
League. This showed that $34, 500
had been raised by last December
S, of which $4,000 came from
New York. No quota or amount
raised was listed for Washington,
but it was reported that the
Washington chapter sent $15.95 to
the national Office. It was ex-
planned that chapters kept part
of the amount they raised for their
own organizing.
Found in the car was a piece
of campaign literature for elec-
ton of delegates to the Second
Congress of the World Federation
of Democratic Youth in Budapest.
That gave Mr.. Cvetic a chance to
tell how the Communist Party
selects delegates months before
the actual election and doesn' t
bother to count ballots.
Girl Selected by Party.
In the case of the congress,
Mr.. Cvetic said, the party selected
Ann Perpich, whom Mr.. Cvetic
identified as administrative sec

Fec Opens Hearings
On ; Radio Stations;
Speech Curb Charged
BY the Associated Press

LOS ANGELES, Mar. 13.-The
Federal Communications Com
mission opens a hearing today on
applications for license renewals
of three large radio stations con-
trolled by George A. Richards of
Los Angeles.
The stations are KMPC here,
WJR at Detroit and VICAR at
Cleveland. FEC attorneys say all
three currently are operating un-
der temporary licenses. Regular
licenses must be renewed every
three years.
The proceedings followed the
dismissal in February, 1948, of
three members of the KMPC news
staff who belonged to the Radio
News Writers Club of Hollywood.
News "Slanting" Is Charged.
The club, made up of radio
writer's and newscasters, COM
planned that KMPC newscasts
were "slanted" to reflect Mr..
Richards personal views. Shortly
afterward, the American Jewish
Congress asked for revocation of
Mr.. Richards broadcasting Ii
cenSe.
Subsequent FEC investigation
also covered the Detroit and
Cleveland stations because Mr..
Richards owned a majority of
their stock. -.,
.KMPC recently issued a state
ment saying the hearing will test
whether an individual "has the
right to express privately opinions
contrary to those in control of
a Government agency. adding that
the very fundamentals Of free
speech are at stake"
Personal Opinions Denied.
The statement describes the
proceedings as "the first real test
OF governmental control over pri-
vate broadcasting." It contends
that Federal laws under which
the FEC operates indicated very
definitely that the commission
has no jurisdiction over the pro-
gram content of broadcasting."
And it adds that although Mr..
Richards admitted expressing
himself on politics and against
certain persons whom he classif1es
as communistic, his personal
opinion have never been expressed
over his radio stations" i.
The statement said further that
Mr.. Richards 'is not and never
has been anti-Semitic."
