Are you interested in seeing Montana's vast and
still almost untouched oil resources develop?
If you are, then you have reason to be disturbed
with the fast-ncreasing imports of foreign oil in the
United States.
Concern the problem expressed recently
by Senators James Murray and Mike Mansfield, and
Rep Lee Metcalf in joint statement issued in Wash
ngton-and with good
The Independent Petroleum Association of America
is the source for the following statement:
Imports of foreign oil into the u. S. averaged
10000 barrels DAILY during April, May and June
an increase of 100000 barrels DAILY Is per
cent higher than the period of 1854"
We just getting good start in oil discovery
and production in Montana, but still have to be
proud of daily average production of around 900
barrels of crude. #s#
Yet our total Montana production of 1000 barrels
daily only little than one-fourth of the $780,,
600 barrel DAILY INCREASE in foreign oil imports,
when compared with just year ago.

Half Of Fiji Families Will

MADISON, Wis (CNS) Two
years ago, no one in the FIJI Islands
had ever heard of credit union. Now
there are 1900 members. And by
1860, half of the islands $4,000
people will be members, predicted
John Naisara, staffman for the Fijis
central credit union committee.
Niasara tells of one member who
paid off a, 10-year-old debt of $25
with a credit union loan. In the 10
years, he'd paid the private money
lender $500, interest, and he still
owed the debt .sc ~

FOREIGN Oil IMPORTS CONCERN M0NTANANS

Total crude oil imports from foreign lands now
average 1880 barrels day. almost Is times the
total Montana production.
Few thoughtful people can object to some importing
of foreign oil. But most fair-minded people
why Montana and other oil states object to the present
unregulated flood of foreign oil on the American mar
ket.
Most major oil states-Montana hasn't had to yet,
but could come-ration themselves the amount of
oil each individual producer and field bring to the
surface on any one month The reason: Like wheat,
there is a surplus of OIL so the oil states and oil men
ration themselves a of holding prices on
fair level and keeping the industry sound.
If American producers ration themselves, isn't it
only fair that foreign producers unloading in the
United States market in competition should also be
rationed? eeE
WHY should oil be given special and unrestricted
privileges in the American market and at the
of our own people, states and communities?-GLEN

YOUR SOCIAL
SECURITY
WHY is YOUR CONTRIBUTION
TO SOCIAL SECURITY HIGHER
NOW THAT 1T WAS 20 YEARS


The tax rate was purposely made
low in the early years to avoid accum-
ulating large financial reserves be-
fore they were needed. Now, how
ever, more people are becoming elig-
ible for retirement payments every
year, and benefits have been in
creased. The idea is to keep the sys-
tenn self-supporting, so it pays it's
way at all times. From 1937-1950,
the Social Security tax was only 10
on employee earnings up to $4,000
a year; then as beneficiaries and
benefits increased, it was raised to
liz %, and in 1851 the earnings base
was raised to $4,000. The present
rate-2% on $4,200-is due to be
rasied too, to keep pace with in
creased costs of the program. Four
further step-ups are scheduled, SO
that by 1875 the rate will be 40
each for employer and employee. Elk
perts figure that 40 on $4,000 will
cover all expenses now anticipated
for that time. Of course, it there's
strong demand for increased benefits
by then (and that's not unlikely
Congress will have to raise either the
tax rate, or the amount of earnings
taxed to provide funds.

Nation Going Too Far On Road To Miiturism

It's high time for Congress and the American peo-
pie to wake up to the INFLAMMATION of this country
and stop it before it's too late Congressman Molohan
DIV. Va) declared recently in extraordinary talk
the House. He reinforced his warning by present
ing two long lists of top military officers One list
shows some of those holding influential govern
ment positions The other names some who have
switched from Uncle Sans payroll to key posts in
Big Business.
LABOR, which has always opposed militarism, is
glad to tell its readers about the danger signals pointed
out by Molohan. In part he said:
sTraditionay, a nation have looked with
alarm and suspicion upon any least hint of rising mill
tary power in midst. The concept of civilian
premacy in government is deeply ingraned in the
very fibers of our national being"
Now, however, there is growing trend on the
part of the military to dominate the national

garded of civilian authority.
