LABOR INSTITUTE, TO Be
HELD I'M GREAT FALLS

January 8 through II will be a
period of heavy educational activity
in Great Falls among farmer and
labor groups.
On January and Farmers I'm
ion Grain Terminal Association will
hold it's sixth annual winter school
for upwards of 800 managers and di-
rectors, at the Montana Farmers I'm
ION state Office building, 100 SiNti
Avenue S.W., Great Falls.
Then on Sunday, January 10 MFU
education leaders from throughout
the state will hold a one-day LEAD
ers' Problem Workshop, at the Flu
building.
Starting Monday, January II, the
annual state officers school for
county Farmers Union officers will
be held through the 18th. Among
topics to be discussed by the school
will be: propaganda analysis, legis-
lation for full parity and an adequate
federal farm program, development
of natural resources, taxation, state
political action, international rela-
tions, and specific duties of local and
county Flu officers.
AS finale to the Today educa-
tional period, the third Great Falls

airy 16 and II. The institute is spon-

the entire country in 1950-51 was
only 1884, compared to $349 for
Montana.
Montana also exceeded the nation
in current expenditure per pupil lex
Guiding capital outlay, $276 COM
pared to 1924. Among the IL west
ern states, current expenditure per
pupil averaged 1858 to 1950-51.
Sparse population and transport
ing students over long distances
help to make the cost of education
relatively high in Montana the ar
ticle states. Public school expendi-
lures per capita of population dur
ing 1950-51 were $57 in Montana,
$43 in the United States as a whole,
and $50 in the eleven western
states.
Despite relatively high school costs
in the state, there is still need for
improved school facilities, and teach
ers' salaries are still below average
in 1950-51 Montana teachers salaries
ranged from about $1,000 to $4,-
900, with an average of $1,000. This
was slightly below the national av-
erage and about II per cent under
the average in the eleven western
states. The Montana average has now
risen to an estimated $4,000, still
low compared to numerous other oc-
equations. MONTANA BUSINESS at

still be abrogated by Interior, con-
trary to the will of Congress"
The changes are dated December
11-day after Senator William Lang
er Urn. d. completed four days
of hearings on Interiors power poll
cy-but were released a week later.
The revised policy says, "Power
available but not needed until later
time by preference customers will
be reserved for them as a class by
selling it under shortterm interim
contracts. Power should not be sold
until it is closely apparent that it is
in excess of the needs of preference
customers"
The policy also says federal pow
er customers won't have to sign new
contracts by January 1. Their con-
tracts will remain in effect "unless
it is mutually agreed to change them"
The new policy groups with pref
erence customers "those non-prefer-
ence customers that serve communi-
ties which by long use have become
dependent on such (federaD power"
Whether Interior intends to establish
a new class of "preferred non-pref-
erence" customers beyond the Fed
eral Power Act is not clear.

CENSORED R.E.A. PHONE
FILM NOW AVAILABLE

WASHINGTON, D. C.-(CNS)-
A revised version of ''The Telephone
and the Farmer" will be out soon.
The Rural Identification Admins
tration movie has been on the shelf
since July when Anchor c.. Mel
son, REA chief, put it there because,
he said, it initiated private phone
companies.
The films beginning and end out
lined steps in getting modern farm
telephone. Farmers were urged to
check first with the existing company
in their community. The new script
narrated by Bryson Rash, Washing
ton radio and TV news commentator
spells out the case for private
phone companies in great detail
Ten scenes have been clipped
from the original movie. Among these
are farm wife's remark, "We've
begged for telephone" Also cut
is the stated fact there are fewer
farm phones now than a generation
ago.
In the original film, farmer ask
ed, Gust what do you have to do
to get telephone out here in the
country" Another said, "In towns
and cities people wouldn't put up with
such situation. Why should the
farmer?" Both have been dropped
from the revised film.
