LETTERS
Fat Heads

A fat head is just what we think
| he is. People do their best thinking on
a small amount of food Millions do not
demand change in government until
| they are actually hungry and bare
| footed
| Franklin Roosevelt could not have
| been elected in the first or second year
of the breakdown of 1929. Millions saw
their income steadily vanishing and
remained disciples of Hoover even
through the election of 1882. Not until
starvation, squalor rags came to an
actual majority did the New Dealers
carry the election.
The Democrats have only one solid
plank yet in their 1856 platform. That
is 1--WE want the salaries, spells and
profits of holding office" That is the
only change in government that so
far the Democrats are offering. The
campaign is warming up already. The
Republicans are just as earnestly run
ming on the same platform. The Re-
publican money and press will win in
1856 unless leading Democrats soon
come forward with some measures that
the decent hardworking American citi-
zens want.
SEN Mansfield (D-Mont.), good at
hiding his own historic mistakes, tells
the voters this morning that we should
worry about Indo- China, Burma, Chang
Kai-shek, Malay, Japan; that he is on
the Foreign Relations Committee and
so knows all about it. This bores me-.
Mike was on the same committee of
the House. He voted for sending IS
billion in supplies to Chiang-who
black marketed it to the Communists
or let them capture it. Mike thought
he was doing right but that does not
get back any of the IS billion of our
taxes
1t would help the chances of the
Democratic Party for their leaders to
say 1--WE repent that Pres. Truman ever
sent a soldier to Korea. 1t was a blund-
err We promise not to repeat such
criminal folly" Let some leading Demo-
crat say 1--WE favor the immediate
building of the five valley authorities
planned by Roosevelt or I'VE favor
immediate total disarmament as fast
as Britain, Russia, China, will disarm.'
Stop just announcing eloquently We
are against sin, favor motherhood and
fidelity to the marriage vows"
The farm income is falling off. The
surplus food should be sold for gold
to Russia, China, to anyone who pays
in gold, tin, tea, rubber. The money
should reduce the joy of the bankers,
and insurance companies, lie, public
bonds.
Unless the Democrats do something
like that / do not threaten to vote Re-
publican. | threaten something worse
than that for the success of the Demo-
cratic Party. / am an unattached voter.
Such only elect Democrats. / threaten
with millions of us, not to vote unless
the Republicans compel a protest vote
by nominating someone like Nixon,
Mccarthy, Velde, Knowland, Lodge, etc.
Mr.. Eisenhower did boldly stand for
peace at Geneva. In spite of all the
evil work of his administration, this
made a hero of him. - LOWNDES

Montana's Wildlife

The daily press informs: The Mon
tana Fish and Game Dept says pheas-
ant hunters should not MISTAKENLY
SHOOT hawks and owls because they
are literally living mouSetraps'. In
discriminate destruction of these birds
does not improve pheasant hunting,
Director A. A. O'Claire said. Obviously
the department is of the belief that
hunters cannot distinguish between
hawks, owls, and chinese pheasants.
We have no desire to take issue in
the protection of many hawks and
owls other than wondering why they
should not be protected against FED
ERAL CARBON PEDDLERS. The Fed
eral Fish and Wildlife Service MAIN
tains a poison mixing plant at Poca-
tello, Idaho, and from this plant tons
of poison go to the fields and forests
of the many states. Federal Wildlife
Refuge, Moose, Montana, has within
its boundaries, so we are told, what
is known as SLAUGHTER GULCH.

serve to be called an American.
Here at home, there are few men
IN public life today who have as great
a personal following among men and
women of all groups and all sections
of the state as have Sen. Murray,
Sen. Mansfield, Congressman Lee
Metcalf; their presence in Congress
has helped to broaden and strengthen
the base of support for progressive
government in these critical years.
They have met with ridicule and
abuse because of their belief and
confidence in Montana. They have
been called Communist, derided and
verbally stoned because they ex-
pressed faith in the common man
and championed the cause of the
weak and unfortunate. They have
been misrepresented. Their words
have been twisted and their records
distorted from one end of the state
to the other, until one is forced to
wonder if fairness and justice takes
a holiday during an election cam
paign.

EFFECT ON EDUCATION
EVEN MORE INSIDIOUS

What the Mccarthy hearings have
done to the teaching professions and
to college professors in particular,
IS more insidious. 1t has cowed them
and put muzzle on their mouths and
placed a censor on their thoughts. In
theory we have academic freedom
in the U. S. Actually there can be
no freedom of expression in So
ciety where name-caling, smear, ru-
mors and innuendoes are the order
of the day.
AS Mary Condor so fittingly ex-
pressed it before large gathering
IN Spokane, "Many teachers have left
the profession because of the vicious
lnnuendoes of Mccarthy and his Re
publican followers who have tarred
and feathered everyone in education
by calling them Communists"

McCarthyism Discredited
Rv TED R. SCHOENBORN, Helena

IL a.
had no issues the people believed in.
They had issues they emphasized, but
thew could not sell them to the voters.
Since they could not persuade the
American people to vote for them
they decided to intimidate people
into doing it. They decided to use
the legitimate fear of Communism
to disintegrate the Democratic pro-
grams and the liberal vote of the
American way of life which in the
large majority was Democratic.
1t was combination of fear of
something real exploited politically
to produce an unreal fear and out
of this tumble was born, as always
in times of emotion and hysteria,
"McCarthyism."
The formula is simple-Take a
crack at our fears and phobias from
infected dish pans to Reds.
We Americans have invented more
bogies than any other nation on
earth. We don't believe in ghosts, we
don't need to; we have conjured our
own. We have invented allergy, sinus,
the flying saucer, and the fellow
traveller. Our lives are one long
thrilling shudder down the back. And
we love it. However, after the Army
Mccarthy TV circus when a large
majority of the American people saw
for the first time what demagogue
Mccarthy was, perhaps more i'm
portant the bully and phoney that
he really was, they revolted. Events
had reached such a state of excuses
that they became unbelievable and
unacceptable. When this fact was
brought home to Mr.. Politician
through the returns from the Gallup
Poll, they right-about-faced until to-
day, less than 2 years later, the tide
has turned back to civil liberties, and
Mccarthy has boone the forgotten
man. In that short time we find Sena-
tor Jenner and arch conservative Ex-
Senator Cain of Washington, public
ly criticizing the misuse of Attorney
General Brownell's list of subversive
organizations.
A welcome change in climate is
noticeable at home. Only year ago
the cloud of McCarthyism still hung
above the land and the excessive
abuse of an inflexible security pro-
gram caused some people to fear for
democracy's future. There are now
some fresh and heartening signs that
the old American trait of fair play is
getting stronger than ever. Today
nobody disputes that the navy made
a stupid mistake in denying a COM
mission to Eugene Landy, conserva-
tive young patriot, because his moth
er once had been Communist. But
the nice thing was the almost unanl-
nous outrage voiced by the scores
Of newspapers covering the case
From the political spokesman of the
New Deal NEW YORK POST to the
flag-waving N. Y. MIRROR, they
cried out against injustice, as did

SMEAR" ARTISTS
The word Communist" when APP
piled TO such loyal Americans as Muir
ray, Mansfield, Metcalf, who have
nothing in common with that form
of government, is unfair, un-Ameri-
can and cannot be justified. Decent
men will not use the word against
those with whom they disagree. How
ever, the small minority such as Me

jurer, the Overcashes, who work from
the fringe of the Republican Party,

the Republican party was not inter
ested solely in electing candidates,
then in fairness they would publicly
repudiate this type of campaign as
sistance.
There are those who sincerely be-
lieve our form of government is in
danger. Of course it is in danger
it has been in danger ever since the
day it was born. Anything worth hav-
ing is always in danger, but we have
successfully defended it many times
in the past. We can successfully de-
fend it now. The only chance for an
overthrow of our government will be,
if we have a continuation of Nc.
Carthyism and men in high political
office such as vice presidential AN
didate running up and down the land
charging the whole Democratic party
as being a party to "20 years of
treason" Such irresponsible state
ments made by men in high office
confuse the public thinking because
as good, honest Americans they find
it hard to believe that men in high
office could stoop to such methods
to win elections. While Mr.. Nixon
was repeating these wild statements
a taxi driver expressed it to me IN
these words, eff we can't believe a

was worth it, many Americans forgot
Nixons sins and voted him into the

Saucer Is GETTING
Plenty Of Work

Dick O'Connell. manager of
Chuck (Kid) Saucer, is having
no trouble at all getting his
heavyweight in shape for his 10
round bout with Hurricane Jack
son Tuesday night at Turner's
Arena.
In fact, the Washington Negro
knockout artist has been acting
like a race horse. O'Connell told
him to run around the Bowie
track each morning to strengthen
his legs,
"And Saucer loves this"
O'Connell says. Il told him to
go around the track once. That's
a mile. He's been going around
1t six times"
Saucer also has stepped up his
gym work. He went through a
lengthy drill last night at Dud-
ley's GYM, 4l9 Ninth street NV
and plans to box at least the
equivalent of 10 rounds there
daily.
Jackson will move in with a
fancy reputation and Saucer
realizes an upset victory for him
will open a few important doors.
The Hurricane isn't exactly
loafing. He stopped Boo Thomas
in five rounds in tune-up fight
in Holyoke, Mass, Tuesday
night, and has been working
out daily at Stillman's Gym in
New York.
Gene Smith, the we'll known
Washington featherweight, will
take on Braxton Reed of New
York in another 10-round bout.
Other matches will be added.
