come taxes to the full extent of their
profits-just as other businesses do.
Money a business refunds to pa
irons is not profits, whether a coop
or any other enterprise makes the
refund. Mason is still hoping to pen
alize non-profit businesses by taxing
them as if they made profit"
Mason indicated he is in sharp
disagreement with Daniel A. Reed
Urn. W, House ways and means
committee chairman, on the matter
of taxing coop refunds. Mason is a
committee member. His estimate that
"a billion dollars in taxes is at stake"
is, Voorhis said, ridiculous"

gresham Hugh D. Scott, Jr. (R-
PENN called IAN old fud'' last Sep

The social security tax rate for
persons whose work counts toward
old-age and survivors insurance is
scheduled to increase on the first
of January, Stewart J. Thomas, man
ager of the Helena social security of
flee, reminded employers, employees
and self-employed people.
This scheduled increase in tax con-
tribution is in accordance with the
1850 amendments to the social Sc
curity law, and was enacted by Con-
gress in anticipation of future obi
cations of the program.
Employees in jobs covered by the
law will have 2 per cent instead of
the present Y per cent deducted
from their pay beginning with Janu-
airy first, up to earnings of 49,
500 year; their employer will con-
tribute an equal amount.
The new rates will apply to all tax
able wages paid after December 81,
1853, regardless of when earned.
The social security tax for the self
employed is scheduled to increase
from the present 2 a per cent to 8

Experience has now convinced the
majority of the commission that this
advantage of timely delivery is more
than outweighed by the disadvantages
resulting, according to statement by
Castles and Mcclure.
They point out three principal rea-
sons for their stand:
l. Misuse of funds and embezzle-
ment is made possible and has oc-
CURED when check-writing authority
is lodged with that of taking claims
for benefits;
2. Operation is less expensive and
more accurate, and fewer personnel
are required in the centralized meth
cd with its equipment of office ma
chimes, as against the hand prepara-
ton in local office; and
3. Checks received by the claim
ant at home and in presence of his
family are less likely to lead to dis
sipation and consequent defeat of
the primary purpose of unemploy-
ment benefits than when delivered
downtown in proximity to dissipa-
ton opportunities.
Opposing the return to central of
flee payment of claims Commission
Root maintains that the delayed de-
livery of benefits by mail tends to
defeat the purpose of the insurance,
which is to provide a substitute for
wages during time of insured I'M
employment, and that in past years
when the central office handled the
checks there were huge backlogs of
unpaid claims while delays under the
present local office system of pay
ment have been infrequent.
Assurance was given by Chairman
Castles that with improved office ma
chine equipment there would be no
such bottlenecks in payment of claims
in the future.

senators tried unsuccessfully to get

"dossiers" can be mighty weapon

They did not apprehend the murder

U.CC. BOARD SPLITS 81 ON CHANGE In PAYING
WEEKLY COMPENSATION CHECKS TO UNEMPL DYED

Writing of unemployment benefit
checks at local offices of the en-
ployment service is to be discontinued
about January 1, according to ma
jority action taken by the Unemploy-
ment Compensation Commission at it's
November meeting. This reverses a
procedure in operation since October,
1852.
Checks in payment of approved
claims will again be prepared in the
central office of the commission, its
officials announce, and mailed di-
rectly to the claimant. This change
will be effected as quickly as possible
but may require some weeks. Me-
chanical office equipment will be
used to expedite the process.
Action in the matter was spurred
by embezzlement of about $500 of
unemployment funds by Edward J.
Lee, formerly employed by the COM
mission as manager of the Columbia
Falls office, who recently received a
prison sentence of four years, sus-
pended. Lees act was made possible
by existence in his office of the claim
records and the check-writing author
ity.
Chairman Wesley Castles and Com
missioner Paul R. Mcclure of Great
Falls voted to discontinue the cur
rent method of check writing, while
Commissioner Albert F. Root of Kali
ispell opposed the change.
The principal reason for writing
checks at the local office instead of
at the central office, is that it pro-
vides more prompt delivery of bene-
fits to the claimant. From two to five
days is required for delivery by mail
to and from the central office, while
the local office payment is delivered
at the time the claimant files a COM
pensable claim.

MORE AUTHORITY FOR
GENERAL ASSEMBLY

DR.. w. P. Clark, dean emeritus of
University Of Montana graduate
school, acting in the role of a con-
sultant on the panel, elaborated on
the effects of the use of the veto
in the Security Council and how, as
result, the UN General Assembly
may be expected to gradually take
unto itself more authority than was
originally contemplated under the UN
Charter Citing as an example of
the General Assembly's attempting
to secure greater results than have
been Forthcoming under the veto
stymied Security Council, DR.. Clark
called attention to the recent CUNT
ed for Peace" resolution of the GA.
This resolution makes it possible for
the assembly to be Immediately call
ed into session if trouble breaks out
anyplace in the world, and steps can
be fastened to restore peaceful re-
lations. This resolution is a first step
in the assembly being something more
than an agency confined to exert
ing moral pressure.
DR.. Clark also briefly outlined the
educational purposes of the Ameri-
can Association for United Nations,
and advised his audience that he, as
Montana director for the association,
would be glad to furnish more infor-
nation on AAUN to all interested
Montanans.

The White House November 2 urg-
ed SBA to make loans to farm ma

far this year are 1910 below 1852,
while dealers expenses have remain

to firms producing for defense, mill

The Dread Disease.
Cancer Sunday was observed in
Catholic and Protestant Churches
in sections all over the State on Sun
day.
Because faith has a large part to
play in the battle against malign-
ancy-faith of the medical profess
sion, faith of the cancer patients and
faith of the patients family-Arch-
bishop Francis P. Keough asked
Catholics to observe a portion of
the day in prayer for guidance of
scientists, doctors, others working
for the control of cancer, and can
Ger patients.
The Reverend DR.. Paul c. War
rem, Secretary of the Council of
Churches and Christian Education,
in requesting Protestant members
to observe the day said: 'The Church
of Christ, which is always bringing
its spiritual resources to the war
against disease, is especially sym
pathetic to every effort being made
to meet the challenge of cancer"
The Reverend L. Boyd Hamm,
pastor Of st. Johns Lutheran Church
and president of the Washington
County Ministerial Association, en-
dorsed the observance locally. In
noting the need for a spiritual APP
proach as well as a medical approach
to malignancy, he commented: "It
is human to back away from some
thing unpleasant. Yet for those
families facing cameron any other
disease-inner strength must be had
to stand against it. We cannot hope
to accomplish that alone"
