Gentleman freely admitted it.
Dudley was summoned to the

"I can't say anything but thanks. -
That's all he was able to get

Maybe Bill should have little
chat with the three-man faculty

Dick Todd isn't exactly sure OF
what was the most important fac

LABOR SUPPLY SHOULD BE ADEQUATE FOR PEAK
DEMAND SAYS ENPL OYMENT CHIEF

Confidence that current and an
ticipated labor supplies in Montana
will meet the peak demands of in
dustrial and agricultural hiring dur
ing August and September is reflect
ed in field reports from employment
service officials, according to NJ. Joe
Miller, chairman of the unemploy-
ment compensation commission. At
the close of July there were 3,70O
Jobseekers listed in the employment
offices; within 800 of the number
available year ago.
Supply has kept fair pace" Mr..
Miller says in the August review of
labor market conditions, with the
continuing heavy demand from in
dustry, commerce and the farms. The
labor reserve to which these registra-
lions for work are an index decreas-
ed only 500 from June to July. The
only long-standing shortage in the
state is for the metal mines and some
of this demand will be met as con-
struction and other outdoor activi-
ties curtail this fall"
"Less pressure is felt from CON
struction operators" Mr.. Miller con-
tinues, with fewer new construc-
ton projects being begun. CONNER
cial buildings and residences now in
progress are being carried to com
pletion, but the uncertainty of OBJ
tanning materials, firmer restrictions
on credit, and current or anticipated
notifications of market demand have
contributed to hesitency in the
launching of new projects"

mechanics and operators are prevail
ent, and will continue to develop

Election of Federation

lengthy on the international situation
ELECTION OF OFFICERS
The new Executive Board shows
only four new faces. They are the
newly elected President James TIMBER
and Board Members Stanley E. Thur
ston, Carl Rydeberg and James E,
johnson. The holdover members are
newly elected Vice President Al Root,
and Board Members E. H. Heller
bran. Reva Walterskirchen, June
Burke, Walter Davidson, and Frank
J. Birmingham.
The opinion of the majority of
the delegates seemed to be a wait
and see attitude as to just what
the new executive board will do
in behalf of the labor movement
in the state.
One delegate, after observing the
number of holdover board members,
voiced the opinion that the future
policy of the MIL will be the same
conservative attitude with little in
itiative in behalf of labor in Montana.
1t might well be pointed out that
several delegates were enthusiastic
and hopeful that several new unions
would appear on the Federation's
rolls very soon. How
ever, another pessimist voiced the
opinion that this was not so. He point
ed out the fact that the Federation
had nothing new to offer the unions
and why should they join now just
because a few new faces appear on
the executive board. He went on to
say that the only way to get new un-
ons was through hard work, along
with proper education which is 60
ng to take years to do because the |
Unions which do not now belong can't |
see anything worthwhile in the Fed

Another resolution instructs the
MIL to work against the nation
wide move to place a 25 per cent
ceiling on income tax in the u. S.
A copy of the resolution was sent to
Rep. Wright Patman, (D-Texas) who
had led the fight against this move,
as well as the states national rep
resentatives in congress.
The MIL again reiterated their OPP
position toward a Federal Sales Tax,
general or excise. Said opposition was
made known to Montana's congress
sional delegation.
The convention went on record
as being in accord with the es-
Enlistment of a Labor's League for
Political Education in Montana. The
LLPE is to be set up to comply with
AFL rules.
A resolution regarding the setting
up of 500 per month payment to
Mrs. James D. Graham was con-
CURED in. The payments are for the
balance of the year 1851 beginning
with July and ending in December.
A resolution regarding support of
academic freedom, teacher tenure,
democratic and reasonable working
conditions, and adequate financing of

The resolution further urged the MIL
to immediately begin the develop

The Montana Federation of La
Dor also supports the Montana La
Dor Institute held annually in Mis-
souIa. They supported it to the
tune of $426.21 in 1850 and prob
ably the same amount this year.
YETI very little attention was given
to its teachings and principles on
the convention floor. The principles
it set forth this year concerning
the education of the rank-and-file
in the problems facing organized
labor were practically ignored and
would have been ignored entirely
except for those few who can see
its merits. However, when any
thing changing the complexion of
the present makeup of the Fedora
ton is introduced the cry is i'm
mediateIy heard, where will we get
the money? Isn't it about time they
protect their present investment in
the Labor Institute and educate the
affiliated unions to support and at
tend this worthy body?

oring a joint action with the Mon
tana Farmers Union when il in

NO LEGISLATIVE COMMITTEE
NAMED
Much talk by AFL and Federation
officials has been given to how labor
was treated in the recent legisla-
ture. Yet noticeably lacking was the
appointment of legislative commit
tee during the convention. Again
much time was devoted at the Labor
Institute to unemployment compensa-
ton, silicosis and other industrial
diseases, economic controls a d
other legislative problems but very
little time, in some cases none, was
given to these problems. Some con-
Germ must have been felt about leg
islation, else why the Democratic
convention?
An attempt to establish the office
of MFL secretary treasurer was par

study. Evidently the executive pres
ident hasn't enough to do with rou-
tine business but he must continue

ports for the Federation as we'll
Isn't that placing a tremendous re-
sponsibility in the hands of one man?
Along with this move to facilitate
handling the records and finances of
the Federation, the convention de-
feated a resolution which would re-
quire quarterly financial audits and
reports. The resolution stated in
part, at is only right and proper
that an affiliated union of the Mon
tana State Federation of Labor
should know when, where and why
all monies of the Montana State Fed
Grafton of Labor is being spent or
used -. , This is further pointed up
by many unexplained expenditures in
The annual financial report.
The practice of referring several
actions to the executive
BOARD for further study was question
ed by several delegates. The two most
prominent questions concerning this
practice were: is this a move to save
he resolution or is this just another
means of letting those in favor of
he resolution down easy by never
fearing how the executive board act

IMPORTANT ACTION IGNORED

1t might be said from reading the
above that the Federation did a lot.
However, it must be pointed out that
the bulk of the positive actions APP
proved could have been handled Just
as effectively through local unions
or central labor bodies. The only in
fluence the Federation has lent is
influence by numbers, not proven
action, as yet.
For instance several resolutions
concerning the changing of the cleo
ton setup were either ignored or put
in the hands of the executive COM
mittee. There must be something
wrong with the election provisions
of the federation if number of un-
ions, four in all, felt it important
enough to enter resolutions chang
ing it's present regulations.
