Ohio Farm Bureau
For Brannan Plan

There is a split in the ranks of
the Farm Bureau on the Brannan
issue according to a radio report by
Drew Pearson. The Ohio Far m
Bureau has gone on record for the
Brannan program, the first state
organization to openly oppose the
national organization.
Last month a resolution was in
troduced at the annual convention
of the Minnesota Farm Bureau ia
voring the Brannan plan. A poll in
both Minnesota and Iowa shows a
substantial majority of even Bureau
members favor the plan.
The Loveland candidacy, based on
the Brannan plan, will undoubtedly
gather in the vote of many Farm
Bureau members, as we'll as farm
ers who in the past have registered
as Republicans.
The stand of the Ohio Farm
Bureau is the first significant break
among farmers in that state away
from the Republicans and may well
bring about the defeat of Taft

OBJECTS TO GARDENERS
ALLEGATIONS ABOUT
SOVIET UNION
editor, Peoples Voice:

Editor, Peoples Voice:
l thoroughly agree with the letter
by Mr.. Smith of Great Falls, OBJ
jecting to some of Mr.. Gardner's al
legations regarding conditions in the
Soviet Union. Surely we get enough
Anti-Soviet nonsense in the kept
press of this state 1t is cruel and un-
usual punishment, | think, to have
to read the same stale ISLANDERS in
such an excellent, progressive paper
as the Voice.
After all, it is not impossible by
any means to get the truth about a
country such as Russia, which covers
a sixth of the earth's land surface,
and has a population of around 200,-
100000. Naturally, there is much lit
erature available on the subject, and
when l say literature" I don't re-
fer to such garbage as is written
by such people as Kravchenko, who
produced the 81 Chose Freedom"
nightmare frantic slander and colossal
lies. Even in Milltown, | should
think, in 1850, Kravchenko should
hardly fool anyone. There is library
in Missoula Pm sure, and doubtless
one at the University, too, and I
should think it would be possible to
get books at either of these which
have been written by sane people, not
pathological liars. have read many
books on the Soviet Union, which were
not at all written by Communists,
but consisted of just good, factual re-
ports. There are the well-known books
by Maurice Hindus, just for an ex-
ample, who was Russian, too, but
a sane one, there is a book by former
Ambassador Davies, and many more.
Mr.. Gardner owes it to himself to get
some reliable information on the
Soviet Union. Such material as he
has passed on via the Voice is an in
suit to the intelligence of Voice read
ers.-HAL BRIGGS, Butte. @o

RELEASE OF $4,000, 600
in UNIVERSITY FUNDS

Butte Carpenters Local No. 112
this past week joined with numerous
other trade union groups in asking
that the State Board of Examiners
release for construction purposes the
$4,000,000 of University building
funds which are not subject to con-
troversy, reports President John Kelly
of local 112.
In asking this funds release the
Butte Carpenters pointed out that
starting of this construction program
will not only provide many hundreds
of jobs and thereby take up much of
the slack in building trades unemploy-
ment throughout the state, but will
g. be to the best interest of our
children to have the advantages given
to them by the building of additional

RoChy lhouHCdlH Oll UNION repre-
sentatives Sunday launched a Wig
orous attack upon large scale i'm
portation of foreign crude oils, charg-
ing that American working men are
suffering from this policy.
Delegates from Oil Workers Inter-
national union locals throughout the
Rocky Mountain district, meeting at
the Hotel Rainbow, approved reso-
luton protesting importation of for
eign oil.
Imports now have reached a daily
volume far in excess of the current
domestic demand, the resolution
stated. This is resulting in curtail-
ment in the U. S. of an average of
100000 barrels daily, and a decline
in oil industry employment. Copies
of the resolutions will be sent to
congressman from the nine Rocky
mountain states.
The delegates, in concluding a two
day meeting here, also protested the
trend of some major companies of
infiltrating the coop movement to
avoid taxation.
Applaud Kerr Gas Veto
President Truman's action in We
toing the Kerr natural gas bill was
applauded by the union representa-
tives. A resolution thanking the
president for his action was enacted.
Sen. O'Mahoney (D-Wyo.) was also
praised for his stand on the meas
ure. The bill would have exempted
most gas producers from federal reg
ulation.
Arbitration procedures were the
object of another resolution, in which
the union asks establishment of a
uniform code of ethics and rules
of procedure, and federal financing
of arbitration services. The resolu-
tion also advocated expansion of |
panel lists so arbitration panel mem !
bers can be drawn from a smaller !
geographical area near the scene
of the dispute. Fees of arbitrators
should be geared to the resources
of local unions and management,
delegates added.
Approve Brannan Plan
In other actions, delegates reaf-
firmed union stand asking removal
Of Robert Denham as general coun-
sci for the national labor relations
board, approved the Brannan farm
support plan and pledged moral, fl
nancial and picket line support to un-
on groups involved in strikes at
Texas Co. refineries in Illinois, Texas,
Oklahoma and Wyoming.
Local delegates, in reports to the
group, were unanimous in protest
ng the i'll effects of the usage of
he Taft-Hartley act against local
lnions.
NJ. P. Paulson, Salt Lake City, a
Utah State legislator and district
conducted the meetings.

Ice Barrier Hampers
Antarctic Landing by
3-Nation Expedition

LONDON, Feb. s (NANA) The
following dispatch was received
here this week from Capt. John
Giaver, leader of the Norwegian
British Swedish expedition to
Queen Maud Land in the Ant
arctic, where the scientists aboard
the sealing ship Norsel plan to put
in two years exploring the interior
of this Norwegian dependency:
Flight 1t. Hugh M. H. Tudor
with ships Capt. Guttorm Jakob-
sen as passenger last Thursday
made reconnaissance flight
southwark from 81 degrees 80
minutes south. II degrees % min
utes west. Thirty-tWo sea miles
southwark from the expedition
ship Norsel's position scattered
ice was observed from an altitude
of $500 feet.
1--WE decided to proceed south
ward in the direction of Cape
Norvegia. Friday afternoon we
had reached a position approx
mately 10 degrees 40 minutes
south. 13 degrees west. We arrived
at Cape Norvegia Friday evening
and Squadron Leader G. B. Wal
ford of the RAF made a further
flight to the south and found that
Seal Bay was covered with un-
broken ice.
Saturday morning, Flight 1t
Tudor made fight to the north
east. He found scattered ice or
open water along the barrier and
thought he saw possibilities of a
landing. The Norsel thereafter
proceeded northeastWard through
the shore channel, charting the
coast and making a series of
soundings.
"The weather was sunny, with
no wind, but we found no landing
possibilities near Cape Norvegia.
The ice barrier is lower to the
northeast of the Cape but the sea
increases from 80 to between $50
and 200 fathoms in depth there.
"A further reconnaissance flight
by 1t. Tudor at 5000 feet revealed
that many square miles of ice were
on the point of breaking loose from
the barrier. To the northeast as
far as the horizon. the barrier con-
tinueS unbroken and very high.
We have therefore decided to pro-
ceed southwest toward the border
OF Coates Land. in hopes of find
ing conditions suitable for land
ing there"
