.PTA Council
Clarifies
School Flyer

The Montgomery County Coun-
Gil of Parent Teacher Associations,
through it's president, James Q.
Reber, wishes to clear its action
in the use of an unsigned petition
flyer in which the proposed school
budget was reviewed as recon-
mended by the County Manager
and an Interpretation made of such
recommendations on the school
system.
The County Council of Parent
Teacher Associations wants it
clearly understood that it acted
on its own initiative and did not
purport to act for the Board of
Education in any way in circulat-
ing the material. The local Par
ent-Tsacher Associations were
specifically instructed that ma
terials were not to be distributed
through the schools.
This statement is made since
the Board of Education has been
questioned about its use of un-
signed material under the idea that
the material was released from
the Board of Education. The Board
did not authorize this release of
material.
The President of the school
board, H. Stanley Slime, has auth
orized the statement that the
Board of Education stands firmly
behind the budget it submitted to
the County Council.

the head of the firm and will pay it

wants to weed out this sort of
thing and keep it from happening
again and again. If you have any
evidence at any time that an at
tempt is being made to victimize
you, stop in at the Board of Trade
office at IA Fayette Street and give
us the facts, or call Poplar 2-4040.

People Denied Right To Pass Jud gment
On lS-Year-OId Vote Amendment

The people of Montana will not
have a chance to decide whether 49,
year-old Montanans should be per-
mitted to vote at the 1854 election.
Our under 21-year-old citizens will
have to wait until at least 1853 before
being permitted to vote for, as well as
fight for-their country.
This the House decreed Monday
when it turned down the constitu-
tional amendment proposed under
House Bill 81 by Durkee, Cerovski,
Sykes. The vote was Al for to 80
against. To put the measure on the
ballot minimum of So of the "a
votes in the House was necessary.
How do the young folks feel about
it? They're disappointed. They
thought, along with many older than
themselves, that theirs was a valid
case to present to the people for
final decision. Though disappointed
in their lack of initial success, they
found many among the legislators
who would lend friendly ear and
treat their case with the friendly
consideration it so richly merited.
The enthusiastic yet business-like
manner in which they Iobbied will
not soon be forgotten.
And-they're determined. Just ask
Tom Mongar, Jr., and Denny Gull
bertson of Missoula High School, or
Eric Lindstrom, Tim Reardon, Gret-
chen Huber, Tom DeYoung, Benny
Lamb or Mike Billings of Helena
High. What do they plan to do?
They've learned quick after only one
brief legislative lobbying experience.
They're going to form state organ
ization to promote the vote for 49,
year-olds, with local chapters in every
high school where they can arouse
interest. Then, they're going to be
right back in the third house" in
1855, pleading the case for first class
for those we demand to
fight our battles for us.

Axe Falls But Quick On
Equal Pay For Equal Work
Joint Memorial

Taking cognizance of widespread
and fragrant violations of Sec. Al
1907, Rev. Codes, guaranteeing equal
pay for equal work to women, Sens.
Rice and Holland introduced Senate
Joint Memorial 16, directing attention
of state administrative officers to the
need for more rigorous enforcement
of this law. SIM 16 made it success
fully past committee, but fell before
the full senate as a result Of Senator
Mahoney's outspoken opposition to it.
Another senate bill relating to the
same subject, SD 1913 by Moss and
Wallace, made it successfully up to
final passage Wednesday. This bill
would increase the penalty provisions
for violation of the equal pay for
equal work statute.

LOAN SHARK BILLS, GOOD
AND BAD, BEFORE BOTH
HOUSE and SENATE

Four bills pertaining to regulation
of small loan establishments are be-
fore the Legislature. Two of these
would place regulation of these bust
nesses under the Superintendent of
Banks. The other two, HB 314 and
HB SIG, by Marsenich, would tough
en- up the usury laws and regulations
relating to rates of interest. sstss s,s4s-s.
Senate Bill 115 by Alley, Tibbals
and Nutter, is the so-called Russell
Sage bill. 1t would permit small loan
agencies to loan up to $1,000. By a
roundabout manner of figuring in
terest, it would appear this bill would
permit an interest rate of about SO
per cent per year on loans repaid on
monthly installment basis. Bank loans,
repaid on a monthly basis cost the
borrower less than a third as much
in interest.
House Bill 331 by Tobin, Silver
Bow, would permit loans up to 500
by small loan agencies for maxi
mum period of six months. AS nearly
as we can figure the interest rate in
that bill, it's also about SO per cent
per annum.

Weller also noted that HB 103
had been very carefully drafted to
meet every major objection raised
over the initiative and that he could
see no reason for small business op-
posing the bill despite Sam Goza's
claims of representing practically all
of Montana small business in opposi-
ton to the measure.
Concluding, Weller told the COM
mittee that unless this legislative
body fulfills its duties than we can
expect the people to be confronted
with another initiative in the next
year"
James S. TIMBER, president of state
federation of labor, introduced the
labor and farmer spokesman for the
bills, and noted in so doing that eve
were told to come to the Legislature
to get our program enacted. We are
here" He also Observed that 'labor's
spokesman are all working people
not attorneys-just working stiffs.''

Legislative Committee Kills
Increased Pay Proposal For
Members of Assembly

No matter how far away from
reality the present $40 per day pay
for legislators is, it's going to con-
tinue that way the House decreed this
week in approving an adverse COM
mittee report on House Bill SO.
House Bill SO would have increased
future legislators pay to SIS per day
and allowed the same daily expense
account permitted other state en-
ployes. |i6h
The present salary schedule for
legislators was adopted in 1909, at
time when the dollar was worth one
hundred cents. Today it is worth al
most one-half that much. Result is
that many able small businessmen,
wage earners and small farmers can
not afford to seek legislative position.
I Reps. Cerovski, Sykes, Mahoney,
Hancock, Ringing and Macdonald led
the fight to save HB 36 from the adj
verse committee report. ~ E
Reps. Conner, Gebhardt and Om-
holt prevailed in their opposition to
the bill. -

PREVENTION, NOT PENSIONS
LONG RANGE AIM

Probably one of the more import
ant points brought out by labor
spokesman was put in words by Err
nest Salvas when he told the COM
mittee that Montana labor's long
range program is to eliminate the
causes of occupational diseases, rath-
er than get every man disabled by
such disease a pension. The most eff
fective way to eliminate such occu-
.pational hazards and ensure good
health to Montana workers is to
make it too expensive for industry
not to clean up these causes of 100
per cent preventable occupational di-
SeaSe.
Robert Weller, business represent
ative Montana District Council Lum-
Der & Sawmill Workers, told the COM
mittee the people of the state are
expecting the legislature to do some
thing about making occupational di-
seases compensate. Weller said that
many small businessmen, in oppos-
ing the Montana Industrial Health
Committee initiative petition last
year had told him they thought the
solving of this problem was ''prop-
er function of the legislature" and
offered to help labor in securing JUS
tice before the 1858 Legislature.

dangers of reserve financing"
In reality, the chambers program
would CD shove the cost of old age
and survivors insurance admitted
ly billion a year, onto the DAB de-
duction on every workers pay check,
thus relieving business of that cost
in other forms of taxes business
would still pay half but much less
than it does now; CD would deny
adequate pensions to higher-paid
workers who are now contributing
heavily to the social security pro-
gram, tending to put all beneficiaries
down onto the $25 week current
minimum ONIONS have been trying
to get this raised to $50 and would
undoubtedly increase the present So
cial security taxes.)
DIVERSION OF FUNDS?
The chambers "pay as you CO.
line was based on its ancient myth
that present social security funds are
now diverted to finance the govern
ment, myth that was exploded when
it was first raised years ago.
Actually, instead of stacking So
cial security funds in 81 bills in Fort
Knox, or instead of trotting down
the Street to Sixth and Seven-Eights
National Bank to store them at II
per cent interest for the bank to re-
invest at higher rates-the govern
ment invests social security funds
with itself, the safest such depository
in the world, issues itself certificates
of indebtedness and then uses that
cash instead of borrowing more from
private sources. The money is still
just as much in the social security
funds as though it were stuffed in
the administers mattress.
SUBJECT TO SLUMPS

ing benefits out of each years earn
