Mansfield Votes Against
"TideIand's" Grab; D'Ewart
Again Doesn't Vote

On the legislation proposing the
making of gift of continental shelf
oil lands to three states and their
major oil company assignees, the
House roll call showed Rep. Mansfield
voting against the bill. Rep. D.
Ewart, failed to vote on the measure.
Last August, it will be recalled, Rep.
D'Ewart also avoided putting himself
on record on this controversial issue,
by failing to vote when the roll call
was taken.
Continued federal control of these
off-shore oil lands, as pointed out by
Justice r. V. Bottomly, recently,
amounts to every school district in the
nation having its own oil well to help
meet its financial problems.
Value of the oil and gas reserves
of the continental shelf are placed
by reliable authorities at being con-
siderabIy in excess of $50 billion.

Wheeling Contracts

Probably the center of the great
est amount of criticism were the
wheeling" contracts entered into by
the Dept. of Interior and the Mon
tana Power Company in January 1851
without public hearings and without
word of protest by a single MEM
Der of the Montana congressional
delegation.
Judge Left Erickson, in pointing up
the disservice done by the Depart
ment to Montana people in negotiat-
ing these contracts, cited Canyon
Ferry dam as an example: g. That
structure was never of much import
ance from an irrigation standpoint.
It's present value is for the genera
ton of electricity. That value to the
people of the State of Montana has
been greatly reduced by the sur
render of the Bureau (of Reclama-
ton, Interior) to the Montana Power
Company"
Continuing, Erickson pointed out
how Montana Power had fought the
construction of Canyon Ferry from
the outset, but, since the signing of
the contracts, is all for the project.
Noting that F. w. Bird, MPCo. presi-
dent, in the company's current an
nual report now states "Our relations
with government agencies are salts
factory, and the threat of govern
ment competition is not serious at
this time . Erickson observed
that C. +. A casual reading of the
contract between the Bur-
eau -. and the Montana Power Com
pany will quickly show you why Mr..
Bird is so well content with the re-
lations his company now enjoys with

FLATHEAD LABOR SEVERELY CHASTlSES CITY
COUNCIL OF KALISPELL FOR OPPOSING INITIATIVE

WHO wrote the resolution opposing
initiative petitions for improvements
in the Workmen's Compensation Act
and by what parliamentary procedure
dit it get on the agenda of the City
Council "by mutual consent" and
without prior notice?
WHY does the Kalispell City
Council lend its prestige to the Me-
Carthyism tactics of opponents of
state legislation without ascertain
ing the wishes of the ordinary tax
payer and citizen?
WHY should ANY City Council aid
ANY group in preventing ANY leg
islation from getting on ballot to be
decided by the voters?
DOES THE KALISPELL CITY
COUNCIL, like the montana Eco
nomic Council" fear the voters of
Kalispell and Montana to the extent
of not wanting the voters to decide
whether the Montana Workmen's
Compensation Act should be amend
ed as proposed by the workmen af-
fected by it?
Why all the campaign to brighten
the voters out of their right to vote?
Is Montana to be governed by fear
and mass propaganda = or by the
voters?
We appeal to the Public for an
end to the McCarthyism and fear
smear campaign of the Montana
Economic Council" and ask that
the public insist upon open public
forums at which both sponsors
and the Workmen's Compensation
amendments may be heard!
