Legion Expresses
Opposition to
Parts of Report

The Montana American Le-
gion recently released it's Off
cial stand on the Hoover Com
mission report, which the Le-
gion agrees with in it's major
portions but sharply critisizeS
in certain recommendations
concerning veterans.
The American Legion accord
ing to State Adjutant Herb
KILLER, is opposed to portions of
four of the Is Hoover recon-
mendationS because their eff
feet will not be to cut the
costs of government as regards
veterans affairs, but to the
contrary will create more bur
eaus and bring about unneceS-
Sary additional costs with no
more benefit to the veteran.
1.-The Legion does favor a
number of recommendations in
the Hoover report concerning
veterans affairs" Kibler states.
"The Legion opposes report
No. 2 dealing with personnel
management because of chang
es in civil service regulations
which would eliminate the vet
Grams favorable status in feder-
al employment preference.
Report No. 2 of the Hoover
commission would eliminate the
veterans rights through abol-
ishment of the present rating
system with it's 5 and 10 extra
points for veterans and diSabl-
ed veterans, respectively.
The Legion opposes two of
the six recommendations con-
corning veterans in report No.
9. This report would create a
veterans insurance corporation.
This would require increasing of
present premium rates on CT in
Surance to cover the costs of
the extra hazards of war and
administrative costs now cover
ed by government appropria-
ton.
1.-The Legion is opposed to
report No. IA which recommends
the transferring of hospital
construction to the department
of interior even while at the
same time condemning the de-
partment of interior for it's OPP
erations. The Legion feels that
the construction of VA hoSpi-
tails is so closely integrated
with the care of veterans that
this should remain in the ag-
ency responsible for the adj
ministration of veterans. bene-
fits.
1.-The Legion is opposed tore
port No. is which provides for
combination of certain federal
hospital medical and public
health functions under a unit
ed medical administration.
ITO separate the care of vet
Grams, from one agency would
be. an expensive operation be-
cause medical examinations
conducted by the VA are used
for compensation and pension
purposes, insurance purposes,
education, housing and other
veterans benefits"

RippHng
of the Rivers

A few years ago, when we
were fighting the naziS and
when the New Deal was in
power, there was a cow story
which went the rounds to ex-
plain the difference between
the various economic systems
of the world.
Now the COW story has been
revived and modernized and
here is the new version:
Capitalism: If you have two
COWS, you sell one and buy a
bull.
Socialism: If you have two
cows, you give one of them to
your neighbor.
Communism: If you have two
cows, you give them to the gov
eminent and the government
gives you milk.
FaSciSm: If you have two
cows, you keep the cows and
give the milk to the govern
ment.
New deal: If you have two
cows, you shoot one, milk the
other, then pour the milk down
the drain.
Fair deal If you have two
cows, let them Starve SO you
can buy your milk in cans,
thus making business better
Livingston Enterprise.
Results of a recent poll of 500
country newspaper editors rep
resenting every state in the
Union, conduced by "The Amer
lean Press" magazine, show that
1876 fear the United States is
headed for socialism.
If that poll can be taken as a
fair cross-section of the popula-
ton, 1t is amazing to us how
socialistic measures can get
through Congress while such a
great percentage fear It.
Number one concern OF those
polled was government financ-
es. A total of 1870 demanded a
balanced budget reduction In
government costs or cuts in fed
eral payrolls.
Among other important things
for Congress to do, in the opin-
ion of those polled, was enact
ment of reforms proposed by
the Hoover Commission.
Many organizations and
groups have Signified that they
favor Hoover Commission re-
forms to cut the cost of govern
ment, but manv of them with
the reservation: Except for the
portion which affects u.s."

We wish good luck to the
Hardin high school Bulldogs in

won't be short on is sportsman

Speech Specialist
Talks at
Health Meeting

Mrs. Thora Baker, speech
correctionist at the Billings
cerebral palsy center, discussed
Causes of Speech Disorders
and the Role of the Parents,
Teachers and Community in
Their Correction" at the Hardin
Health Council meeting here
last Monday night.
Mrs. Baker said there are ap-
proXimately four million indi-
VidualS with functional speech
disorders in the United States
and only about 1000 trained
therapists to work with these,
while 10000 such are needed.
There are four principal types
of speech disorders, she said,
which include organic - some
thing that happened to inter
rupt the proper development of
the speech mechanism; pSych-
ological-Where some other diff
fieulty enters in; poor models
for the child to initiate in the
home or among associates, and
language difficulty.
About 5 to 10 per cent of
speech difficulties are due to
defective hearing, Mrs. Baker
said. Of these, 2 to 3 per cent
are severe enough for special
attention. Seyenty-two per cent
are defects in articulation.
Some examples of this are lea
wing out the final consonants.
These difficulties should be had
well In hand by the time the
child goes to school.
One out of every 100 persons
shutters, the speaker said. There
are many theories on the cause,
but advertisements that guar
antee a cure are misleading. No
one has ever cured suffering,
she said, but the condition can
be improved. The sufferer
should not be ridiculed or label
ed because he shutters.
A normal child should learn
to talk meaningfully from 18
months to three years. If he
hasn't done SO by the time he
is 80 months old, something
should be done about it. Chill
dren are sometimes slow to
talk because of illness or lack
of stimulation. Parents need to
talk to children to provide
speech patterns for them to i'm
itate.
One more serious type of dis
order is due to cleft palate, the
specialist said. This can be cor
rected by operations, but spe-
cialistS fully qualified to do this
work are few.
Speech is often affected by
birth injury or malformation of
some part which interrupts the
natural speech pathways. These
can often be helped by working
on specific muscles as is done
at the cerebral palsy center in
Billings.
Mrs. Baker said Big Horn
county is one of Is counties in
the state which can send pa
tents to the clinic.
The role of the teachers,
parents and community is to
see the child as a whole and
respond to his personality, ra-
ther than the difficulty, it was
pointed out. Do all possible to
give the child self esteem and
qualification in in accomplish
ment. Help him to develop en-
tkusiasm and social contacts
With these considerations he
will respond.
Mrs. Iva Goe, council secre-
tary, read a bulletin from the
state board of health relative
to inspection of hospitals. Mrs.
Sam Cunningham accepted the
responsibility for the American
Legion Auxiliary to provide a
chairman for the cancer con-
troll drive. .
President August Heitzman
was III charge of the meeting,
and Betty Christensen, public
health nurse, introduced the
sneaker.
