Rebates Of $4,000
From D. T.. Ordered
To Two Banks Here

The United States Court of
Appeals yesterday ruled that
two Washington banks are en-
titled to rebates totaling $110.-
900, plus interest from the Dis
trict government for tax over
charges.
The ruling upheld lower court
judgments, which awarded the
American Security and Trust
Co. $70,028, covering rebates for
the years 1916 and 1947, and the
Washington Loan and Trust Co.
$4,000. covering 1947 and 1949.
Charge Excess Interest.
The banks had been taxed, un-
der the gross earnings tax law
applying to banks, at the rate of
6 per cent, without deduction of
interest paid on savings deposits.
The banks asserted the interest
rate should have been only 4 per
cent, after deduction of interest
paid on savings deposits.
BY the time the case reached
the Appellate Court, the District
government had ceased to dis
pute the 4 per cent figure be-
cause of former adverse rulings
against it But the city con-
tended the banks paid the tax
voluntarily, without a protest"
in the legal sense of the word,
even though letters of protest ac-
companied the payments. Under
the law. if such tax is paid
voluntarily. the payer has no
later recourse to courts of law.
Court Cites Duress.
But the Appellate Court held
that, in effect, the tax was paid
under duresS. The court pointed
out that, it the banks had not
paid. they would have risked
penalties of l per cent a month
and summary distraint of their
property.
The court said it agreed with
the District Court, which held
that ito say that a man who pays
money must be held to have
acted freely unless he did it un-
der pressure of immediate and
urgent necessity suggests high
standard of pluck and manhood,
but in transactions with the
government it is not a fair and
reasonable test. When a demand

Industry and commerce in Mon
tana employed 1000 more wage earn
ers in July than in June and 900
more than in July, 1862, says the
August summary of labor market
conditions issued by the Unemploy-
ment Compensation Commission. Es-
Inmates announced in the report in
dictate 10000 in July, employment,
exclusive of farm workers, as COM
pared with 16O,100 in June and 161,-
100 in July year ago.
The gain from a year ago was
achieved, it is pointed out, in the
face of loss of about 5000 con-
struction jobs on Hungry Horseand
Canyon Ferry dams in the year per-
iod. Initiation of construction en-
ployment had prevailed during the
four-year period of construction of
those dams. Their completion re-
leases small army of men skilled in
various phases of the construction
industry.
Compensating factors in the Mon
tana hiring market are the Tiber dam
near Chester, now employing about
500, building of an aluminium plant
at Columbia Falls, with 400 now at
work, establishment of a new saw
mill at Superior, and increased en-
ployment in nearly all major indust-
ries aside from construction.

UP 6.6 PER CENT

consumers will buy about 6.8 per cent
more oil products than they did a
year ago, government experts be-
lieve. But Petroleum Administra-
ton for Defense man, w. G. Done
ly, refused to guess beyond March.
Supplies are so ample, Donley told
the American Institute of Corpora
ton here, August 10, that refineries
will only have to increase their runs
about 4.3 per cent. Oil exports, he
said, would be off sharply-about
10 per cent.
Specifically, he thought gasoline
purchases would be up per cent;
distillates, 13 per cent; kerosene, 10
per cent.
Bruce H. McCully, assistant gener-
al manager of Consumers Co-opera-
tive Association, told AIC delegates
that oil wells drilled off-shore cost
about five times what it costs to drill
a well on land.

JULY EMPLOYMENT UP ALMOST A THOUSAND
over SAME MONTH In 1852
Even &c. Unemployment Is Also Greater Than Year Ago

and utilities 600, governmental en-
ployment was up 600, finance, in
surance and real estate 800, manu-
featuring 200, while construction
registered loss of 1000 and mining
of 200, the last due principally to
curtailment of coal mining employ
ment.
Increase of 900 in employment,
from a year ago, is accompanied by
increase of more than 1000 in unem-
ployment, as reflected in number of
jobseekers at offices of the employ
ment service in the state, according
to the report. This sums up to about
1000 more persons in the working
force, a normal annual growth IN a
healthy and expanding economy.
JOBLESS INCREASE LOO IN
PAST YEAR
There were 3,249 of these job
seekers available at the end of July,
contrasted with 2,191 year ago.
This pool of reserve labor has shrunk
from the 1000 level reached in
when seasonal unemploy-
ment was at its height. Labor de-
mands in August and September will
be principally dependent upon this
supply, which appears reasonably
adequate to meet expected require
ments.
Concerning the advance of 1000
in employment from June, the report
classifies it as mostly seasonal in

expansion of trade and service pay
rolls which are curtailed during win
ter and spring months. The increase
was greater this July than in either
of the two preceding years, probably
due to slowness of seasonal indust-
ries in getting started in earlier
months.
The next major change in the labor
market in Montana, the report says,
will result from return of several
thousand employed workers to the
school room next month. This is nor
mally compensated in part by return
of industrial workers from farm
work and self-employment, and in
part by absorption of workers from
the jobseeker list.
Seasonal curtailment in employ
men will begin as cooler weather
in October through Janu
airy. Industries principally affected
are construction lumber and log
ging, railroad and forest mainten-
ance, and agricultural activities.

Mansfield said little progress was
made the first session on public
works projects in Montana. He criti

SLIPPING FARM PRICES SHOULD
ALARM LABOR
Attorney General Arnold H, Olsen
told delegates they had cause for
alarm over dropping farm prices, be-
cause farm income is the great job
maker for labor" The seriousness
of the falling farm price situation to
labor is further heightened, he said,
by legislative action last winter in
drastically weakening and curtailing
unemployment compensation benefit
provisions. s -...
Because of these amendments, he
pointed out, many Montana workers,
such. as in logging, lumber and con-
struction, will be ineligible for COM
pensation this winter.
Discussing the controversial school
oil lease law passed by the last legis-
lature which is presently in the courts
following his having ruled it uncon-
stitutional, Olsen told the delegates
"You have been told there is cause
for alarm over the lack of money in
the school districts for the coming
year. There is no need to fear.
Because of the five million dollars
in oil bonus money distributed to the
school districts this year, the reserve
funds of the districts, which will be |
available in the coming year and sue
seeding years to improve the schools
and lower taxes, total nearly Is mil
ion dollars. This is two million
dollars higher than they have ever
)een before. This two million is part /
IF the five million in oil bonus mon
~ which was distributed this year
md is being held at the local level
or future USE"
Olsen also told the convention:
&c, neither is there any cause
for alarm because no oil lands have Il
been leased this year. We do not
plan to give away for the small
sum we might realize this year the
immense amount of wealth which
will accrue to the schools for SO II
to 100 years to come. The grant
of the common schools dedicates
them forever to the support of the
schools. Not one word in that
grant allows them to be used for
the encouragement of any indus
try"
All sessions of the convention, ex-
ept the Wednesday night banquet,
ere held in the Kalispell Eagles
all. The banquet was held in the
emple Tea Room.

Taking cognizance of the great
liberal record of Senator James E.
Murray over the last 20 years, Morse
told AFL delegates and guests: "The
people of Montana have right to be
proud of the great liberal voting rec
ord of Senator Jim Murray. Murray
he says, and he backs up his words
with his vote.
Noting the liberal record achieved
by Cong. Lee Metcalf in his first
term, Morse said the First District |
Congressman "has stood shoulder to
shoulder with US in trying to save
Hells Canyon, and in fighting for
the people on many other issues be-
fore the SD Congress.
LIBERALS, THE 'VETO" PARTY
Recalling that the last great piece
of social legislation-the Wage-Hour
Act-was placed on the statutes
more than Is years ago, Morse said
that in the years since the liberals of
the congress have become the "veto"
party. Most times since 1888, thru
1852, the liberals had enough votes
to sustain vetoes by two great liber-
al presidents, Roosevelt and Truman.
The same situation does not prevail
today with Eisenhower in the Presi-
dency. Important as the Wage-Hour
Act is for the protection of low-wage
workers, it is in grave danger, he
warned. Great forces are out to
wreck it =.
Senator Morse was introduced to
he delegates at the Wednesday night

lent, James s. TIMBER. The Morse +.

Six More Cuban Rebels
