provision in compensation act would
again lead to criticism and tend to
weaken such proposed legislation.
Placing it under the department of
labor would draw less opposition to
the compensation act and would bet
ter be administered under the depart
ment of labor as labor law.
A bill to the legislature to
amend Montanas Workman's COM
pensation law should be one-pack-
age proposal. A one package proposal,
we feel, will make it easier for leg
islators to consider rather than sew
eral amendments pertaining to the
same act. Also, lobbying will be much
more feasible because it would be
easier to call supporters to testify
in behalf of such bill rather than
call them to Helena several times
when each part of the act is con-
sidered il, individual bills were intro
duced. We feel several bills to amend
the compensation act would seriously
tend to weaken the overall improve
ment of the compensation act, which
is needed.
We urge that the definition of
an occupational disease or infection
should remain as written in the MIHC
petition. That definition
was adequate and very clear. To
specify the diseases that would be
covered, or scheduled coverage as it
IS called, would soon prove discrimina-
tory to the working people as some
would be covered and others with
equally serious occupational disease

II NATIONAL FORESTS
EARN S4,576,8I0 in PAST
FISCAL YEAR

MISSOULA-The total earnings of
II national forests in the Northern
Forest Service region were $4,576,81O
in the fiscal year ending June 80,
1862, Regional Forester P. d. Han
son has revealed. That makes the
past II months the highest income
year to date for the forests in nor
thern Idaho, northeast Washington,
Montana and northwest South Da-
kota. The amount is $850,474 more
than in fiscal year 1851 and the lar
gest gain was the step up of $748,-
814 in timber sales, Mr.. Hansen said.
Timber selling brought in a total of
$3,926,218.15 net. Grazing fees for
cattle and sheep amounted to $751;
956.70 net. Land use rentals paid
$50, $500 net, while water power
rights sold for $22,079. Twenty-Five
per cent of the years income is re-
turned to the states and then appor-
toned to counties having national
forest land for the benefit of schools,
local roads and trails.

The Interim Committee Proposes
that annual money rentals shall be
applied and credited upon the royalty
accruing to the state during the year
for which said annual money rental
shall be paid to the state.
Annual oil land rentals are'75 cents
per acre, with minimum lease of

The three amendments:

Thus, the legislation proposed
by the committee would make it
mandatory that such rentals and

alton and production. Under the

would be lost to the permanent school

ed on all of the leases covering this
100000 acres.
But, 100000 acres is less than 10
per cent of the total mineral acreage
of school lands. Altogether there
are 100000 acres of such school
lands. Of these, an estimated g.
100000 acres lie within the bounds
of the Williston Basin.
1t is impossible to estimate the
maximum loss the permanent school
fund would suffer should the Inter
i'm Committee bill become law since
there is no way of telling how much
of that acreage may be underlain
with oil deposits. If, by some mir
acle, the entire 5,550,OO0 mineral
acres still Unbiased has sub surface
oil pools which are brought into pro-
duction, the minimum annual loss to
the school funds in rentals alone (and
not including signing bonuses) would

At the present time the state is
receiving no royalties in excess of
u per cent since all present wells
on school lands are low producers.
However, it is the opinion of those
acquainted. with the geology of the
Williston Basin that when develop
ment of that field gets into full
swing, the state may have countless
scores of wells producing 5000 bar
rels or more per month. (Already
wells have been brought in in the
basin which have been checked at one
to three thousand barrels per day.
A couple of examples will suffice
in showing how badly the permanent
school fund would fare if the COM
bill becomes law.

They invited the boy to share their

Traditional
Candle I'm
The Window
By Kathleen E. Sullivan

A candle in the window at
Christmas is one of our most
significant traditions. God became
man TO lead His people through
the darkness Of life with the tight
of Faith. The candle symbolizes
Christ; its wick, the soul; wax,
faith; the flame, divinity.
The Christian tradition of a
candle burning in the window TO
welcome the wayfarer dates back
to medieval times, but the candle S
association with festivals observed
at this time of year is much older.
In The Roman world, candles were
used for the Feast of Saturn, not
only as a means of illumination but
as gifts exchanged i'm token of
cheerfulness and good will. The
Jews burned candles to mark the
Feast OF Dedication and, therefore,
it is not improbable that at the
time of Christ's birth, candles call
times of Christ's birth, candles
were burning throughout PaIes-
tine. In the Greek Church, Christ
mas is called The Feast of Lights. +"
One of the more popular sources
of the candle-in-the-window tradi-
ton is told in Clement Moore
THE Noel Candle" This is the
story of a French mother and her
two children. Their father, who was
at war, is believed dead and they
have lost their home and most of
their possessions. However, they
thank God that they are still with
one another and therefore, at
Christmas, they place candle in

Then, to their amazement, they

ing safely on the beach, holding

When he fell, it was learned, he
promised the Christ Child to be-
come a priest if he could be re-
turned safely to his mother. He
told how he had been carried
through the water into beauti-
full chapel where he saw the Christ
Child surrounded by the Holy In
