AcM TIMBER HOLDINGS
GREATER Than LARGEST
RANCH In MONTANA

The Anaconda Copper Mining Com
pany, although not generally consid-
cred a giant in the timber field, has
holdings in Montana that are half
again larger than the states largest
cattle ranch, the Flying-D of the Gal
latin area.
Anaconda owns more than a half
million acres of timber land Cor about
500 sections) within the state. A
considerable slice of this acreage was
obtained from the State Land Board
a number of years ago at S. per acre.
The Flying-D, while a giant in it's
field, consists of only $4,000 acres
of grazing and some crop land.
Anaconda each year manufactures
approximately SO million board feet
of lumber. Of this approximately 40
million board feet is used in its own
operations. The balance is retaiIed
throughout the state and elsewhere
through ACM's subsidiary, Interstate
Co.

SCHOOL FUNDS FROM
LAND RENTALS INCREASE

Income to Montana schools from
state lands totalled $2,313,4O2 the
first 10 and one-half months of 1851
and represented an increase of $751;
389 more than the department took
in in its best year, 1948, Land Com
missioner William Pilgeram has an
nounced.
Rentals on agricultural and graz
ing lands, oil and gas leases, inter
est on outstanding contracts, returns
from farm mortgages and interest on
bonds, account for the 1913 million
plus.

KFDW NOT TO BECOME
A.C.M. OUTLET

In response to the comment pub
lished in last weeks Voice that the
ACM is repeatedly seeking network
of several stations in Montana, in
Guiding KFDW, Helena, Robert Flem-
ing, manager of the Capitol City mu-
tuaI outlet has advised:
"The officers of the corporation
know of no plan to either switch to
CHS or to sell to ACM. An owner
of CHS station did contact us to
find out if we were interested in join
ing Columbia. Last spring an agent
for outside interests contacted the
board with the idea of buying into
the business. The deal was never con-
summated."

fund to perpetuate principal. Only
the interest is spent for the school
fund.
These laws do not apply to individ-
uals. There is no law in Montana
with reference to offset wells or to
the number required in drilling. The
oil and gas conservation board and
the railroad commission, he explain
ed do have rules, but they are to
regulate and conserve oil and gas
production with reference to oil and
gas companies and drilling contract
ors instead of individuals or owners
of mineral rights.
25O-FOOT LIMIT
There is limit of 250-foot area
he said, but it the oil company can
show it is to better advantage to drill
within this area, petition can be made
to change this ruling. Most details
concerning the drilling of offset wells
is contained in the lease.
He urged all contracts be taken
to an attorney and every clause be
studied before signing as there is
language used in the oil industry
which has entirely different mean
ing than in any other business.
1t is like any farmer or stockman
trying to sell his grain or COW in
foreign country where different
language is spoken, he explained. To
know what he is doing, the farmer
must have an Interpreter. Huppe

consulted on oil leases and individ-
uals should not try to be their own
lawyers.
NO PRODUCTION CONTROL LAW

questions from the floor, said there

hey are private property and not

Huppe stressed mineral rights are
ust like any other property. The
wner can sell and contract for the
ale of the property just as with

call of the Dawson County Farmers
Union, more than 500 landowners,
lawyers businessmen and leasehounds,
assembled in Glendive's Moose Hall
to take part in discussion on oil
land leasing, led by Charles Huppe,
first assistant to Attorney General
Arnold Olsen.
Though it was too late for many,
Other landowners considered the in
formation and advice gained at the
meeting invaluable. Of particular
Importance was the repeated eau
tioning by Attorney Huppe to:
"See your attorney and study
every clause of lease carefully be-
fore signing"
The following on the meeting, re-
printed from Great Falls Tribune will
be valuable reading for landowners
throughout eastern Montana.
Although Montana does not have
many laws pertaining to development
of oil and gas industry, Huppe said,
it was not wholly unprepared. Some
laws have been passed, especially
with reference to state lands and
their leases. These require termin-
alton of leases in 20 years, and per-
centages of royalty be put in trust

"SLAVE LABOR" AT PRISON
STILL GOING ON, SAYS

OLSEN, MITCHELL, ASK FOR
PARTICULARS, PROMISE
IMMEDIATE ACTION

Use of "s1ave labor" at the state
prison is still going on, reports E..
R. Britten, secretary of Great Falls
Building Trades Council, despite as
surances by state officials at the Mon
tana Federation of Labor convention
in August that the practice would not
be tolerated any longer.
Because such practices are continu-
ing, the trades council is insisting
that Gov. John Bonner, Secretary of
State Sam Mitchell and Attorney
General Arnold Olsen, Immediately
remedy the situation.
Following a call by the editor of
the Voice, Attorney General Arnold
Olsen and Secretary of State Sam
Mitchell issued joint statement.
1t is:
eve shall be very happy to learn
of any specific complaints of the
misuse of prison labor. The same
will be remedied Immediately upon
receiving such information
Gov. John w. Bonner at press

doubtedly will have a statement to
make following his return from

MIDLAND COOP GROUP
DISCUSSES STATE
LEGISLATION

Bringing the legislative record Of
members of the 1851 Legislature to
the voters of the Midland Empire will
be major goal of Midland Empire
Coop Activities in 1862, a meeting
of the group determined Tuesday.
The meeting was held in the new Bill
lings Labor Temple, and was attended
by upwards of so coop managers
and directors.
Coop Activities is voluntary ed
vocational association composed of
managers and directors of more than
80 co-operatives in the Yellowstone
area. This includes co-ops in Yellow
stone, Big Horn, Carbon, Saltwater,
Musselshell, Treasure and Golden
Valley counties.
Tentative plan arrived at calls
for wide circulation among rural
and urban residents of the voting
records on a number of important
measures before the 1851 session,
that the voters may more accurate
ly determine how well their legis-
lators are representing them in
Helena.
PLAN ADVERTISING PROGRAM
Another important activity of the
association scheduled for 1862 will
be the placing of a series of educa-
tional ads on co-ops in the daily and
weekly press of the region. Ads
will be run once month the first 10 |
months of 1852, and will attempt to
convey to the readers information
on what co-operatives are, their place |
in the community, what the savings
made from co-ops mean to other bust
nesses in the community, taxes paid
by the co-ops, etc. (NOTE: More
than $4,000 in coop purchase saw
ings found their way into the cash
registers of businessmen in that area
in 1950.)
Following lengthy discussion, de-
cision was also reached on incorpor-
ating the association and the matter
was referred to the board of direc-
tors to be taken care of.
President of Coop Activities is
Ray Goodwin of Joliet, and secretary
is E. R. Kinder, manager of Farmers
