SIGNS OF the Times!

Back in the good old days" Of
1885 when dollar was a dollar anc
more likely than not a guy didn't
have buck, men Of all political com
plexions were most conscious of the
public good. In that good old day
before the federal government had
gotten into the rural identification
picture, Republicans were as DESTROYS
as Democrats that electricity be made
available to the greatest number of
people at the lowest possible cost.
In fact, Republicans took the lead
in pushing such important legisla-
ton. For example, Madison county
Republican Senator J. B. Garrison in
troduced Senate Bill ISL of the 1885
session which was given heavy vote
of approval in both the house and
senate. Senate Bill ISL established
the STATE ELECTRIFICATION AU-
THORITY.
Although none of the senate men,
bers of that day remain in the leg
islature, several who were in the
house then, are in the 1858 Legisla-
ture. Interestingly enough, every last
one of them who voted FOR SB 1O4
and repeal of the Identification Au-
thority Act, 18 years earlier voted
FOR establishing the authority. The
roll call on SD Isl of the 1885 Leg
islature, according to House Journ-
al, pages $3.50, for that session,
showed voting FOR SB ISL: Busch,
Lott, O'Connor, Padbury, Scofield
and Worden.
Sen. Balgord, although absent from
the vote on SB 104, originally voted
in favor of setting up the authority.
Sen. Manning, who supported SB Isl,
was the lone remaining member of
the 1885 session, who continued in
support of the authority in the 1853
Legislature. Sen. Moss did not vote
on SB ISL or SD 104.
Among other members Of the 1885
house who voted to establish the cleo
rification authority and who continue
prominent in Montana life, were: Ex-
U. S. Senator Zales Ecton, E. C.
Toomey, Helena attorney; Albert
Kruse, incoming Commissioner of Ag-
riculture, Don Chapman, president of
Montana Farmers Union, and William
Leavitt, then Republican member of
the house from Custer county, and
now-for many years lobbyist for
Power.

AS Expected, Governor Puts
His Okeh on SB 104

Governor Aronson put his sig
nature of approval on Senate Bill
104 yesterday This came as no
surprise to those who followed his
record as a state legislator. In
1947 he voted for Senate Bill 90,
Gov. Sam Ford, would have seri-
ously handicapped further extern
sion of electricity to rural people
via REA. In 1851 he voted for
House Bills 80 and 42-both of
which would have jeopardized the
future of Montana's rural electric
co-ops had they not been vetoed by
Gov. John Bonner.

Farmers Fully Own Sc Per
Cent of peas

WASHINGTON, D. C.-(CNS)-
1852 saw AZ more production cred
it associations pay off the last of
their government-owned stock and
become fully farmer-owned. This
brought the total to $50, or 500 of
all 499 peas. The other PIG local
credit co-ops are swiftly approach
ing full farmer ownership. Govern
ment capital in PCAs-once 500 mil
lion in the early 30's-is down to
$7A million. A few peas are still
formed each year.

There were some other accomplish
ments of minor nature, but, by and
large the 33d Legislature will be re-
membered for what it did not do
rather than what it did.
Most outstanding characteristic of
the session was the setting up of in
term committees to study this, to
study that-a philosophy of "never
doing today, that which you can
put off until tomorrow, as it were.
At latest count, there were seven or
eight such committees set up. Legis-
lators will be running all over the
terrain investigating stream pollu-
ton, the need for occupational di-
sease legislation, state contracts, I'M
American activities, etc. Interim COM
mitee to end all interim committees
in the future will be the Montana Leg
islative Council which will have about
$4,000 to spend in the biennium for

the limits of Texas sovereignty sea
ward from the coast line thus became
null and void.
Those leading the fight to kill SIR
2-and thus approve the giving away
of Montana's estimated $145 million
stake in the oil resources of the
continental shelf were: Sen. Taylor,
who moved to "indefinitely postpone"
action on the resolution, and Sens.
Weydemeyer, Bremen and Worden.
Proponents speaking for the reso-
luton included Sens. James, Ma
honey, Ettien and Grandey.
After Taylor's motion had prevailed

ed to save SIR by seeking to have it
segregated from other bills discussed
on General File. Those voting "aye"
