Leading the fight in opposition the
final night, as we'll as during prev
ious days were Senators Anderson

proponents of HB388 in the floor
debate were Nutter (Richland), Cos

To attempt to even partially cover
all the floor debate in the senate on
HB 388 would fill one issue of the

Two Dangerous Power Co.
Bills Now Up To Gov. Bonner

in cities for practically a generation.
So far as REA co-ops are con-
cerned, HB42 is a really dangerous
measure, even in its weakened form.
With this bill on the books private
utilities will be encouraged to carry
on vigorous campaigns for contracts
in REA areas which could lead many
small towns to switching to private
power contracts thus leaving REA CO.
ops without adequate consumer loads
to amortize existing government
loans.
Because present laws are adequate
for agreements between power utili-
ties and cities and towns and have
necessary safeguards for the people
in such municipalities, and because
present laws do not prevent con-
tracts being extended for longer than
three years, in the best interests of
the public, neither HB39 or HB42
should become law.

KELLY, Lake: g. Pm a small
businessman. The bulk of my bust
ness is with farmers. I'm happy our
farmers have hog marketing coop
and a creamery. These have tended
to build up our community $. Before
the co-ops these shysters came in and
beat down farm prices. The farm
ers were at their mercy, Now, the
farmers are building new homes, buy
ing refrigerators, washing machines
All these things are making it
more attractive for young men to
stay on the farm Every dollar
the farmer makes through his coop

spends with us little businessmen :. E.

farmers we are striking at the found

Governor vetoes MBI86

AS we go to press we learn that
Governor Bonner has vetoed HB1S6,
measure sponsored by Montana
Power Co. Had HB186 become law
the possibility would have been very
great that the private utilities of the
state would be relieved of conform
ing with Federal Power Commission
accounting procedures. Thus freed,
there would be no possible way the
people could ever determine how
much of any utility's capitalization
used in rate-making was based on
"water". Good work, Governor.

House bills 80 and 42-the two sur
viving bills of series of four (HB4O
and Al having been killed in the sem
ate)-which were vigorously lobbied
for by representatives of Montana
Power Company, have passed the
senate and are now upon the Gov
ernor's desk for final decision.
Though both are a far cry from
the monstrosities they were when
first introduced in the house, neither
are good legislation, and in the pub
lie interest should be tossed into the
ashcan via gubernatorial vetos.
Because these companion measures
make it possible to ratify present
contracts for street lighting system
maintenance for periods up to Is
years, it also makes it possible for
utility companies to freeze electric
rates at present high levels to city
consumers since neither measure
makes any provision for renegotia-
ton of contracts for lower and bet
ter terms. HB39 will retard the US

Monday evening.
Following house hearings and the
5O-35 vote of approval of HB 388
(see Feb. % Voice for roll CALI in
that house, a second public hearing
was held by the senate. Then, though
slated for senate discussion late last
Friday, or on Saturday, because of
the wide interest in the measure, the
senate delayed action until Sunday
afternoon when it was discussed for
the better part of four hours.

EQUALITY"
Sunday afternoons action first
conferred on a series of amendments
by Sen. Ettein which he explained
were to bring about equality" by
taxing all non-profit organizations
such as rental properties owned by
fraternal orders, Montana Club in
Helena, etc-in like manner. In of
fering his amendments, Ettein ex-
planned ''the bill as it now stands is
a 'booby trap" After considerable
debate during which Sen. Gosman
labelled Ettein's amendments as
"unsound" and Sen. Nutter objected
that the amendments completely re-
write the bill'', Ettein's amendments
were approved 1924.
Immediately thereafter, Sen. Nut
ter, realizing that the bill as amend
ed would bring down the wrath of
every fraternal and veterans group
(among others) on the senate, moved
that the bill be sent back to Sen.
Gosman's taxation committee for re-
vamping. His motion was held in
allegiance by another by Sen. John
son (Dawson) that HB 388 be indef-
initely postponed" (killed).. After
protracted and heated debate John
sons motion failed by 27-25 tally.
Nutter's move was then approved and
the bill went back to committee. A
little later another move was made
and the bill was pulled back on to the
floor from the committee. Another
motion to kill it by Anderson (Pon-
dera) failed by 1922 margin, and,

Testing organizations. and sometimes
even medical men, are long on science,

Because. according to the report, half

a year without single trace of leakage.
This was the one pen, the owner found,
that not only did not leak, but also
wrote the best.
Ball pens had become, with him as
with many others, sort of inky pain
in the neck.
They always leaked, always wrote
poorly, and were so stiff in writing that
they did not permit one to write at ones

Still, what could one expect for a
