Where does the money come
from that supports the royal
family? How much money has
the Queen to spend?
Her majesty'S finances can be
divided roughly into three parts:
Civil list allowances-voted by
Parliament at the beginning of
each reign-from which the Sec
ond part. "privy purse" or per-
sonal allowances, are taken, and
for the third part, the private
fortune of the royal family, the
amount of which is not made
public, as it is traditional that
royal wills and financial state
ments are not published.
In former times sovereigns of
England paid their bills and their
government officials by strange
means. Elizabeth I filled empty
Golfers of her treasury by claim
ing the lions share of loot her
adventurers brought back from
pirating on the Spanish Main.
Henry III had proflted by :'royal
wards" and picked husbands for
young heiresses. charging from
Els to $4,000 ($42 to $14,000D for
rich young countess.
Then there were taxes: "Fu-
mage" a royal tax on fireplaces.
and "prisage, a couple of casks
off each wine ship. But the finan-
cial mainstay of the monarch
for centuries were Grown
lands" Out of revenues from
these-to which Henry VIII
added handsomely by taking es-
tates from his friends and from
the church-royal bills were met
and salary lists, including those
of government officials, were
paid.
Stote Profited
Queen Victoria's grandfather.
George III, and her uncles
George w and William w,
turned a greater part of their
crown lands over to the state
in exchange for an annual al
lowance sufficient to keep the
royal establishments and meet
royal requirements.
The state had the best of the
bargain. The value of the prop
erty relinquished has increased
beyond any possible expectations
of officials of that time, and the
civil list grant-computed when
money had higher value-re-
quireS careful budgeting to
cover expenditures required and
expected from the sovereign.
In the last reign George VI
paid out of his personal allow
ance - the privy purse - house,
bold eXnences to the amount of
10000 pounds (S84,0OO per year
tN"t should have come from
other civil allowance funds. AS
most of his reign was during
wartime. and he had little en-
tertaining expenses. he returned
from his privy purse to the civil
allowances large sums, among
them one for 100000 pounds
($280, ,000D. The Queen also has
told Parliament that she will
take 1900 pounds ($47 5000 per
year less privy purse allowance.

it would probably be more accurate to
say now that the Legislature has shut

general government General Ike, Cen
eral Motors and General apprehension
in the months ahead. At this time a few
comments on the activities of the 33rd
Assembly might be in order.
While it is still early for the crdi-
nary citizen to estimate with any great
degree of accuracy how much good has
been done the public, or how thorough
ly the public has been done" by the
recent session, one necessarily wonders
what the Montana housewife will do
with all the extra leisure time she has
gained by not having to squeeze the
color into oleomargarine. Will it cause
her to start stepping out" become a
gadabout and result in breaking up
of homes? Will not such legislation
destroy individual initiati by caus-
ing the housewife to expect similar
other services to be performed for
her instead of doing them for her
self in the good old rugged individu
alistic" way?
Then also one wonders what the in
jured workmen and the unemployed
will do with that extra money 1.-TWO
or three dollars per week. that they
were granted by the legislature. In the
critical financial situation which the
nation finds itself will not the plac-
ing of these munificient sums in cir
bring about another wave of
'inflation"? 1t might even be possible
that the unemployed and injured work
men might, with this magnificent in
crease of income, indicate a desire 10
invest and speculate in New York or
Florida real estate which would bring
about an exodus from Montana which
would almost depopulate the state.
Such questions, as Hamlet says, Must
give us pause"
Speaking seriously however, the com
plexion and activities of the legisla- |
tive assembly does not seem to have
much change in the last
score of years. There have been a num- |

LABoR's MISTAKES VIEWED

LABOR'S MISTAKES VIEWED
Fourth, labor.s approach to legis-
lation could stand improvement. One
error labor makes is to ask for more
than it can secure in view of the
legislatures makeup. This plays into
the hands of the industry for its lob
byists can term labor as radical. "
A wiser method would be to survey
the field, ask for what seems more
logical and make a sound gain. This
slower method would be better than
asking for all inclusive gains and
getting finally only few crumbs.
Another error which labor makes
often is to act either from expediency
or a narrow interest rather than to
realize and stay with basic principles.
To illustrate this, the failure of GER
tain labor groups to oppose two cop
per-rivited bills, SB 104 and HB 179
were mentioned.
The basic principle in SD 104 which
repealed a 1885 law was the right of
the people to go into the power bust
ness if they wished instead of en-
trenching that right for a private
monopoly. The basic right in HB 179
was the little landowners right to
his own property. HB ITO gives emf
nent domain to the power monopoly
and thus jeopardizes the small mans
right to his own land.
make no deals Stay with prin-
ciple." labor was advised.
LEGISLATURE ADOPTS NEW
TECHNIQUE
The adoption of a new "pass the
buck" technique by the 33rd session
was noted by the panel. When con-
fronted by a controversial and diff
cult problem, the legislature setup an
interim committee to study the prob
lem and report back in two years.
This device underlines the legisla-
lures failure in leadership. Problems
remain unsolved and the people are
not served.
The interim committee charged
with determining whether or not sill
COSTS is an industrial disease in Mon
tana, is an example. The same legis-
lature increased welfare funds pay
ments to silicotics by ten dollars per
month. Organized labor's clear posi-
ton on silicosis is that it is an in
dustrial disease chargeable to the in
dustry in which it is contracted. Yet
the Montana legislature, in a posi-
ton, unjustifiable morally, puts this
industrial cost of giant industry
on the backs of the taxpayers.

DR.. Beal urged those present to

HEALTH PROBLEMS DISCUSSED
Various aspects of health problems
were discussed in the afternoon ses-
sion. Hayes Beall of the Co-opera-
tive Health Federation of America alb
ly explained health problems and med
zeal costs which workers face. He eX-
planned in detail the st. Louis Com
munity Health Plan. Mr.. Beall stated
that medical science has available
wonderful cures and techniques. The
block is economic-the high price
of medical service. Therefore the
problem of how the people can be
served by these available services
must be faced.
The consumer has a right to say
how he will secure the services. La
Dor takes the position that it has the
right and duty to establish its own
health programs for the benefit of
its people. Clinics, set up on a CO.
operative basis and stated by many
doctors, give the patient the advant-
age of the services of many experts.
This is at a reasonable cost. Other
wise the worker would not be able to
have such services.
