This Should Cause An Argument -.
More Facts On Coop Taxes

In a recent article by Leonard Ken
field, Editor of the Farmers Union
News at Great Falls. he headlined it,
1.-The Facts: Co-ops Pay Plenty In
ures in support of that statement There
can be no denying that statement in
principle of course because everybody
pays plenty in taxes. Whether all CO.
ops pay their fair share of taxes is
questionable however, particularly REA
co-ops.
IT has been said that figures don't
lie. However, partial statement of facts
and figures can sometimes be more
misleading than an outright mfs-state-
ment. would like to quote few more
facts for Mr.. Kenfields information,
and my authority is the Sixteenth BIZ
ennial Report of the Montana State
Board of Equalization for the period
ending June 80, 1854. The taxable value
of REA transmission lines and practi-
cally all other property is fixed at
7eo of its assessed value. Taxable value
for similar property, owned by indlYld-
uals or public utility corporations IS
400, or nearly times as much. For
every 1918 in property taxes paid by
public utilities for the support of our
schools, county and state governments,
REA co-ops pay only $1.0O but Mr..
Kenfield calls it plenty For every S1.OO
in taxes paid by REA, farm and home
owners nave 10 pay S4,5U.
That is not all. All concerns and pub
lie utilities generating and selling cleo
trical energy in the state must pay a
tax of 20 on their gross receipts. Due
TO one of the biggest loopholes in our
tax structure, although they are cor
porations, REA'S are exempt from TINS
and most other taxes, including the
500 corporation taxes and the excess
profits tax Even the lowliest slum
dweller at only 200 taxable value, pays
3 times as much taxes on his household
goods as the REA on the assessed Valu-
alton. Mr. Kenfield recommends thfst
records of the County Treasuref's OF |
flee be checked for confirmation of
figures. / also urgently recommend 1t.

NEW MOVIE OPENS, SHOWS
CHANCE FOR
RESPONSIBLE OWNERSHIP

WAUKEGAN, Ill.-(CNS) The
Cooperative Leagues new film,
where People Count" had it's pre-
miere here, March 3, in the hometown
of many of its stars and bit players.
The movie emphasizes the oppor-
tunities for respectable ownership
that co-ops offer people in all walks
of life-farmers, small businessmen,
workers, and homemakers. It shows
the broad sweep of economic CO.
operation in oil, credit, milk and food
distribution, farm supplies, electricity,
insurance, housing, and other fields.
Narrated by Jerry Voorhis, the Co
operative Leagues executive direc-
tor, the firm stars Clyde Peterson, a
school bus owner; Bill Evans, farm
er; and their families. Before the
film, Voorhis said, 'tThis is a record
of positive accomplishment. 1t doesn't
pretend to answer all the silly things
that are said about co-ops by special
pleaders with private axes to grind"
The all-color 16mm talkie is 27
long, making it readily adapt
able for widespread television use.
1t was produced for the League by
Altschul Productions.

10 the Editor OF the PEOPLE'S VOItE,
Helena, Mont.
Gentlemen, I congratulate you for
your wonderful editorials in informing
/ the public and explaining many of the
bills in the State Legislature and bills
| in Congress, and the opportunity for the
public to express their opinion in your
Readers Forum.
| / wish to express my views on the
| condition of approximately two and a
half million senior citizens who were
too old in 1887 when the Social Security
was enacted to be benefited by that So
called Social Security.
Take my personal experience for in
stance, which no doubt is similar to
tens of thousands of other senior citi-
zens who have done their part in build
ing up this great country. Well in 1897
as | was a water user l succeeded in
getting a few weeks work on the pump
ing plant as a carpenter. had moved
to Kalispell. [ tried in every way to
secure employment but I was too old
although / was physically able and
competent for most any kind of job
either inside or out. / finally applied
to the WPA. They asked me my age.
[ answered 68. They said they could
not give me employment, that my only
chance was old age assistance. A friend
that became acquainted with who was
a member of the State Legislature at
the time, informed me that he believed
he could secure for me employment
with the CCC boys at Columbia Falls
if I was familiar with the woods, which
certainly was, as I was matured in
the woods in Wisconsin and worked
in the woods in Idaho, Washington and
Montana But / did not get the job
although / was purfectly competent.
| had purchased home in Kalispell
and only owed S1,100 which l lost as
could not make the payments without
employment five room house with
full basement, which [ suppose IS
worth between five and six thousand
dollars at the present time.
We had great hopes in Eisenhower's |
1852 speeches as he promised Social
Security that would be fair to every
body, but as everybody knows that
Cong Dan Reeds Wonderful Achieve
ment ignored these senior citizens en- |
tirely 1t certainly was an achievement |
for Reed as he domineered the other "a
members of the Ways and Means Com |
mittee and pulled the gag rule on the
lower house, and pulled boner on the /
Senate by giving them the bill just as |
they were ready to adjourn.
In my opinion Reeds Wonderful Ac-
is the most brazen piece
of dictatorship that the English speak
ing people have experienced since DIV
err Cromwell dissolved parliament and
executed King Charles the First, then
acted as dictator of Great Britain and
Ireland from 1649 to 1860. We hope that
the Democrat controlled Saith Congress
will rectify some of the errors and
give the senior citizens decent federal
as they have been paying in
directly pensions for school teachers,
-ailroad employees, coal miners, en-
oloyes of government, judges and many
others for years.
God bless America with justice for
Ill and discrimination for none. Sim

suffer further sharp loss in in

long period of time other seq
ments of the economy will eventu-
ally suffer just as much"
interviewed after his speech,
Sparkman made these comments:
On schools: 'The Republican school
program is shell, an empty promise.
The cost of the so-called program
would be borne by states and coun-
ties"
On housing: "The Capehart investi-
cation of the FILA scandals covered
only 800 cases. / would like to see
the picture on the whole 5000 prof.
ects of that type"
On the Dixon-Yates contract: cit
violated all principles of free enter
prise-there was no competitive bid
ding and no risk taken for the profit
and We'll fight it as long as there
is a chance to lick it. 1t was command
ed by the President of Acc and IVA,

be independent, and the terms were

doubt you do to, but it just isn't the

chest pains early this week and
his physicians sent him to the
hospital here. On Wednesday he
was operated on by George
Washington surgeons.
Several months ago a section
of artery was removed from the
body Of a boy 16, who died of
natural causes. His parents
consented to the post-mortem
removal.
1t was stored at Bethesda
Naval Hospital. The storage
aorta was used to replace the
section cut from the young
North Carolinian. Surgeons used
hypothermia. an icing-down
technique that permits the
|clamping-off of blood flow, which
otherwise could be fatal. The
lowered body temperature lets
organs go without aortic blood
longer than at normal tempera-
lures.
:. The surgeons said the North
Carolina patients age was also
an important factor in the sue
cess of the operation.
