Bridges Plans to Push
Separate Reserves Bill

tiveness was discussed by the
Republican Policy Committee
yesterday, after which Chairman
Bridges declared this session of
Congress should not think of
adjourning without passing a re-
serve bill.
Mr.. Wilson was accompanied
to the Capitol by Assistant De-
Tense Secretary Burgess. Admiral
Radford, chairman of the Joint
Chiefs of Staff, and other de-
fense officials. Senator Russell
told reporters Mr.. Wilson is
very anxious to have a reserve
bill passed because he deems it
vital to the defense Setup.
The administration favored
tying it to the draft bill be-
cause that measure has already
passed the House. and could go
directly to conference without
running the risk of another anti
segregation amendment, which
caused the original reserve bill
to be sidetracked.

Other highlights of Mr.. O'Con-

/. The manufacturers of the
Salk vaccine undoubtedly lost
money in producing the serum
used in the trial tests last sum-
imer and in the inoculations OF
first and second graders since

3. There Is a possibility that
at least so million children
through the age of 10 can receive
at least two shots of the vaccine

BY J. A. O'LEARY

Chairman Bridges of the Sen
ate Republican Policy Commit
tee said today he will ask ths
Senate Armed Services Cotnmit
tee to proceed with a separate
military reserve bill, following
yesterdays decision not tt
attach it to the draft bill.
Chairman Russell of Armed
Services announced following q
conference with Defense Secre-
tary Wilson that it had beer
decided there would not be time
to tie the two bills together be-
fore the draft law expires on
June 80.
The Georgia Democrat has
been insistent that adequate
public hearings be held on the
reserve program, and he pointed
out that if that were done now
it might endanger extension of
the draft.
Sees Defense Gamble
"It would be gambling with
the one indispensable prop of
our defense system" said Senator
Russell.
At the same time. Senator
Russell said he assured the De-
fense Secretary that if a sub
stantial" number of members of
his committee want to go ahead
with a separate reserve bill he
will be glad to appoint a sub
committee to hold the hearings.
Senator Bridges said he is con-
f1dent a substantial number will
join him in requesting separate
action. and the request probably
will be made when the commit
tee meets tomorrow.
Senator Saltonstall, Republi-
can, of Massachusetts,, who at
tended the Russell con-
ference yesterday. also said it is
entirely possible that sub
stantial number of committee
members may wish to proceed
with a separate bill.

Urgent Request
From Sidney
Office

Again, for the Christmas sea-
son of 1855, the Sidney Post Of
flee personnel, urge early mail
ing of presents and greeting cards
to insure delivery before Christ
mas. Your attention is especially
called to the fact that heavier
mailings are expected this year
than ever before and altho many
terminals are being set up at the
larger distributing centers to ex-
pedite your mail and altho the
Post Office Department is using
every known method to eliminate
bottlenecks or delays, yet, if they
do not have the cooperation of
its patrons throughout the United
States to mail early, nothing they
can do will prevent the clogging
of the mail somewhere along the
line. Mail early and mark your
packages do Not Open Until
Christmas"
1t was indeed gratifying to your
local Post Office personnel that
last year the response TO our re-
quest for early mailing was heed
ed by SO many. 1t is urgent that
the response be as good or better
than last year. Your office here
will increase its force consider
ably and will work late and hard
to do its part in making this
Christmas a joyful one to every
one of its many patrons.
Send your Christmas Greetings
by First Class mail for only Sc.
1t means:
/. Preferred handling.

TV Development
Discussed At
Chamber Meeting

The proposed stock sale for the
TV station at Williston to also
serve this area was reviewed at a
Jr.-Sr. Chamber of Commerce
meeting this week. The report
was made by Bob Hall and sever
al other Senior and Junior
Chamber members who attended
a Williston meeting last week at
which time the proposed TV plan
was presented.
It was generally agreed that
the local Chamber of Commerce
shouldn't be expected to raise
funds and that that responsibility
should rest with those most inter-
ested in the promotion. Accord
ing to Chamber Secretary-Mana-
ger Dan Price, the Sidney Cham
Der Board had previously in
structed him to secure full par
ticulars on the proposal SO as to
know all possible facts and prob
lens on TV development.
While there has been lots of
interest throughout the area for
TV, there are a number who are
not in full accord with the idea
of substituting some firm located
in another state. At Williston, a
group protested Chamber action
on the TV proposal and accord
ing to reports, further action and
the stock sale will be in the hands
of interested individuals or the
Missouri Valley TV Company.
According to Williston sources,
the proposed TV set-up would be
Bismarck with the transmitter at
a satellite station to KFYR-TV at
Williston. The signal would reach
a 60-mile radius and a $350,000
stock sale will be necessary.
Stock shares of $50 and 500
have been proposed. The corpor-
alton is to be named Missouri
Valley Television Company with
the Board of Directors to be Sc
lected from various communities
to be served. DR.. Gordon Beagle
has been designated as a temper
airy representative of this area
by people interested in the pro-
posal.

RichIand County
Gets Big Slice
MDU IS Taxes

1855 personal property taxes
totalling 1926, 683.13 to be paid
to 10 Montana counties by Mon
tana-Dakota Utilities Co. are the
highest in the COmpany'S history
according to B. W. Durant, Glen
dive division manager. The in
crease over 1854 personal prop
erty taxes in the same counties is
S71,354.26 or 1870.
Durant stated that Richland
county will receive a ,433.74 as
its share of the 1855 tax pay
ments. This represents an increase
Of S5,O89.68 over 1854 personal
property taxes.
According to Durant the in
crease is due in part to the con-
tinUing program of expansion of
Company facilities to meet the
growth of Montana communities
served by the Company. Durant
said the checks for the first one
half of INDUS 1855 Montana
taxes were mailed to county
treasurers on Nov. 25.
