Ii the two leaders of the Montana
Power Company are worth $4,000
per year, surely the three men who
operate the State of Montana are
worth more than $4,000 per year.
The taxpayers of this state pay
the salaries of the Montana Power
officials as well as the officials of
the state government, as the Mon

that they owe the City of Missoula
and the school district there, several
million dollars, through decision of
our supreme court rendered in 1908
which affirmed the fact that "Wat-
er Rights wherever located are tax
able by the district where the water
is consumed" Montana Power Com
pany owns the water system in Mis-
soula.
Mr.. Corette has stated that his
company is very anxious to cooper

The TUBERCULOSIS CONTROL PROGRAM

| tuberculosis is dependent for the most
part upon two methods, X-ray ex,
animation of the chest, and skin test
ing. The former being a procedure
used for adults and children IL to
Ia years and older; skin testing as a
case finding method is generally re-
stricted to the age group under
twelve. The adoption of the X-ray
for screening large numbers of people
economically and rapidly has been
made possible by the use of the
Interchangeable or Mobile X-ray
Unit. This method utilizes roll film

Inauguration in 1916, all of Mon

TAFT-KARTLEY and BRANNAM Plan
WILL TOP SCHEDULE AT LABOR inst.

Collective bargaining and farm
price supports will be two top sub
jects at the Montana Labor Insti-
tute to be held on the campus of the
University of Montana, Missoula,
August 3-5 this year, according to
the institute planning committee that
met in the Garden City, April 20.
Three additional topics planned
for the seventh annual labor insti-
tute are workmen's compensation,
co-operatives and taxation. Six maj
or sessions will comprise the sched-
ule of the institute with the first
five devoted to these subjects and
the sixth for standardization of dis
cussions. Efforts are being made to
secure nationally known people to
lead the discussions for each topic
with Montana workers and farmers
taking part in supplementary panels.
Active rank and file participation
will be encouraged throughout the
Institute. A picnic and possibly a
banquet will be included in the pro-
gram of activities.

MONTANA POWER PROXY Statement PROVES VERY
INTERESTING READING MATERIAL

In four-page sheet calling the
annual meeting of the Montana
Power Company stockholders it is
noted that the clique now in control
are securing proXys of stockholders
who cannot attend the meeting.
This is the usual procedure, but
what is unusual in the proceeding is
the fact that the expense in securing
these proxys is being charged to the
company-instead of being charged
to the clique that is DESTROYS of Sc
curing these proxys, in order to keep
themselves in control of the COM
pany's affairs.
This four-page sheet also informs
us that Mr.. Bird, the president of
the company, received for his serv-
ices the past year, $42,625.00 and
that Mr.. Roy Glover, director and
general counsel, received for the
same period the sum of $28,975.00.
The Governor of the State of
Montana receives less than $780,
600 per year; our secretary of
state and our attorney general
less than $6,000.00 per year, but
whenever a move is made to in
crease the salaries of these under
paid state officials, the lobby main
tanned by the Montana Power Com
pany and the Anaconda Copper
Mining Company is always oppos-
ed. They call it waste of tax
payers money.

CORPORATION CASH
DIVIDENDS UP FOR 1850

Cash dividend payments made by
corporations issuing public reports
amounted to $483,200, in April
1850, or 3 u per cent more than the
$467, 100000 paid out in April of
last year, the Office of Business
Economics, u. S. Department of Com
merce, announced recently.
Publicly reported cash dividend
payments in the three months ended
April aggregated $1,514,8 100000, or
8 per cent more than in the same
three months of 1919.
Among the eight broad industrial
groups for which data was presented,
finance registered substantial in
crease in the period ended April 1949
compared to the same three months
this year. Moderate increases over
this period were recorded for most
of the other major groups. Only rail
road corporations showed decline,
which was minor.

tuberculosis OOuLIOl OlVlSlOH
Montana State Board of Health
AS in any communicable disease,
the first consideration in the con-
troll of tuberculosis is to prevent
spread of infection.
To provide means for the spread
of any communicable disease (1) an
infected individual or reservoir of in
lection, (2) a means of transmit
ting the infection, 90 and suscept-
able individual are necessary. ELM
ination of any one of these factors
would result in the elimination of the
disease, but this being impossible at
the present time, an attempt is made
to eliminate in part, all three factors.
The sources of infection can be
partially eliminated by the isolation
and adequate care and treatment of
those persons with active disease and
tubercle bacilli present in their spu-
tum. The means of transmission is
effected by destroying the tubercle
bacillus the moment it leaves the
infected individual. This is prompted
by teaching proper hygenic measures
to patients and those caring for
patients, and ensuring adequate pro-
vision of hospitals caring for tuber-
culosis patients. The susceptible in
dividual can be influenced by two
measures, one general, the other
specific. General measures decreas-
ing susceptibility to tuberculous in
lection are higher standards of living
including adequate housing and nu-
triton. Active immunization with
BGG vaccine produces a specific
means of decreasing the number of
susceptables to tuberculosis, but con-
siderable difference of opinion still
exists regarding its universal use
and it's actual effectiveness.
The primary problem and general
objective being outlined, the activi-
ties and services essential for a tu-
berculosis program may be enumer-
ated and discussed in brief. The fol-
lowing may be considered as the most
components of the Mon
tana tuberculosis program:

THE RED SCARE

If we as Union men fail to under
stand that much of this "red" scare
business is just a cover-up for politi-
cal failures, or in many cases the
mouthings of insanely ambitious
men, such as Joe Mccarthy of Wis
consin, we will find that our own
friends are being driven out of posi-
tons of leadership and we can expect
the moose of anti-labor legislation to
be drawn still tighter.
Peppers defeat clearly points up
to all labor the danger we face in the
1850 congressional elections. We can
expect the "red" label to be used
even more generously than before.
We have to be smart enough, amid
all the confusion generated, to stick
by men who will stick by us on the
program labor supports.-LITHOG-

The National Association of Manu-

explains, have joined in program of
Business Industry Education. Days
Labor exposed this program when it
was first revealed about a year ago.
Since then, it is now disclosed, Bile
Days have been held ''in score of
Wisconsin communities"
In each of them, a program care
fully planned by the NAM and Cot
C. was followed by local businessmen.
The program has these steps:
The schools are closed, either all
day, or at least half day.
The businessmen take the teachers
on personally conducted" through
local industrial plants.
Banquets For Teachers
Then comes a banquet in the ev-
ening, at which the teachers are fed
and entertained by the local chamber
of commerce or some other organi-
cation of business or industry.
''At each of these banquets there
was a speaker-usually a prominent
local banker or industrialist.
AN analysis of the addresses Civ
en- at half dozen of these BILE days
in Wisconsin communities reveals the
following dominating themes:
81. High taxes are killing private
enterprise and initiative.
20. The Truman health program
is the same as socialism or commu- /
nism.

teachers to carry his message back to
their schools, and told them this:
"You can inspire the youth of to-

The choice will, in large measure, be
determined by the kind of thinking
you stimulate" Could anything be
palmer than that? Plant our propa-
ganda in children's minds, reaction
airy big-business spokesman tell the
teachers, and the children will grow
up thinking what we want them to
think.
When George E. Watson, Wiscon-

was asked about these BILE Days,
he said they were perfectly proper.
But when asked whether we would
approve closing the schools for a
Labor Union Day, he said, II will have
to think it over"
No One Safe From SANDER
Why are these attacks significant?
Because they show that not even
prominent and obviously respectable
church members and ministers are
safe from SANDER as pinks and Reds,
if they dare to challenge the reac-
tionary interests represented by such
as Flynn and High.
AS an eminent Presbyterian mini
ster recently wrote Labor: "The heat,

cuted by smear campaign. Pressure
