His slogan, which will appear on
the ballot, is GA plain man for the
plain people" His statement of policy
is: 81 believe every public utility is
entitled to earn a fair return on it's
investment in Montana, but it is the
duty of this commission to protect
the consumers and see what no utility
earns more than the courts have held
to be fair return. Every person ap-
pearing before this commission,
whether representing large cor
poration or himself as an individual,
is entitled to fair, courteous treat
ment and just decision. AS chairman,
[ have tried to see that this is done
to the best of my ability"
Last July he appeared before the
Interstate Commerce Commission to
protest increased freight rates which
would affect Montana. AS chairman
of the Board, he now is leading a
fight to retain Montana's jurisdic-
ton over freight rates and to oppose
freight rate increases ordered by the
Interstate Commerce Commission.

not have to stand long and contem-

gazed sadly on gullies, displacement

Many of them could not reach their
farms over regular roads.
There were those who had land in
crops that were not affected by the
flood, perhaps not even touched.
There were those who had some land
just within the backwater of the
flood. Land that was unaffected by
the current could still be productive.
Even as the farmer looked at land

In the Chinook area some farm
ers went back to land that could
never absorb the quantities of silt
that had been deposited. 1t would
take equipment larger than farmers
own to scrape the land before a
pillow could be put to it. In some
areas the water has not receded
enough for farmers to know how
much silt has been deposited. Water
is still too high to determine dam
age to the alfalfa crop.
Farmers from Chinook to Nashua
moved back to their farms to face
damage to their homes and livelihood
from the worst possible to varying
degrees of less damage. Few escaped
actual disaster
The maze from which the farmers
must work themselves is not encour-
aging. A farmer is a small business
man. He borrows to invest in his |

operations, and like the rest of us he

While the discovery of mammoth bones on this con-
