Loyal TO God

The story of the young men who
chose death rather than be dis
loyal to God by worshiping Nebuch-
adnezzar's golden image. reaches
one Of its high points in what the
young men said to the king God
will deliver us, they said; He is
able to deliver us and we believe
He will: but if motif there is no
God. or if He is not able to save
US. or if He does not choose to save
us. if He forsakes US altogether,
we will not be disloyal to Him
The story is a kind of parable
about all the loyal servants Of the
true God in great pagan Babylonia
during those exile years Many
Jews must have been tempted to
take over the religion Of their con-
querors. just as after the second
World War there was a rush to-
ward Christianity in Japan. Ger
tainly there in Babylon there were
many voices whispering or calling
aloud, Bow down. Conform. be
like everybody else when you are
in Babylon do as the Babylonians
do. Don't be peculiar, don't be
stubborn, leave your invisible God
and come worship the golden gods
to whom the nation prays, But the
young men made the right choice,
hard then, hard always They
would be loyal to the true God even
if his deliverance was delayed.

NO INCREASE TO
FARMERS I'm CCC
INTEREST RATE BOOST

No change in interest rates to farm
ers is involved in the recent u. S.
Department of Agricultur boost in
interest rates to private lending agen-
cies investing funds in Commodity
Credit Corporation commodity loans,
Leo S. Kolstad, State Agricultural
Sterilization and Conservation adj
ministrative officer, explained this
week.
The increase is being offered to
private lending agencies to encourage
them to retain their investment of
private funds in CCC loans.
The rate of interest payable to
lending agencies financing CCC price
support loans on 1855 crops and 1854
reseal purchase agreement loans is
being increased by one-fourth of 1
per cent per annum effective from
December 1. The increase is being
offered to bring the interest rate in
line with recent increases in rates on
short-term government and CONNER
cial borrowings.
The action will not result in any
additional costs to Montana farmers.
The rate of interest charged farmers
obtaining price-support loans on their
commodities will remain at the pres
ent rate of 81 per cent per annum,
Kolstad stated.
Additional action to reduce CCC
borrowings from the Treasury will
come in an announcement to be made
in a month or two of an offering of
Certificates of Interest in the amount
of 100000 or more. The terms
and conditions under which the GER
tificates will be issued will be avail
able through Federal Reserve Banks
or branches following public an
of the offer.

FTC Examiner Saws
Government CAM
Police Insurance Ads

WASHINGTON, ID. C.-(CNS)-
The federal government has no right
to police sickness insurance ads, ex-
cept where states fail to do the job.
That's the opinion rendered by
Federal Trade Commission examiner,
Frank Hier. He said ETC has no right
to suppress allegedly false advertis-
ing of Federal Life & Casualty Com
pany, Battle Creek, Mich, except in
four states and the District of Column
bia.
HER said Rhode Island and Missis-
sippi have no truth-in-advertisin
laws, and Montana and Missouri laws
do not adequately prohibit false,
misleading, or deceptive advertising"
ETC has similar false advertising
complaints against Al insurance
firms.
HER based his opinion on an inter
probation of the McCarran Act. This
law, he said, withdraws federal con-
trole and sanctions Estate control OF
every phase of the insurance business,
except where such states regulation
is either impossible or clearly ineffec-
tive -

CARPENTERS PLAN
REFERENDUM ON
REVISED CONSTITUTION

KALSPELL-The last days ses-
sion of the convention of the Mon
tana State Council of Carpenters,
Wednesday, Dec. z, adopted a COM
pletely revised constitution which will
be submitted to its constituent local
unions for ratification. Two resoiu-
lions calling for improvements in ap-
premiership training program and a
resolution urging the enactment OF
state labor relations law were
adopted.
The Council went on record as IA
voring higher premium rates for over
time work in order to provide more
employment by restricting hours of
work to a five-day, forty-hour work
week. Strong criticism of alleged en-
ployment of prison labor was voiced
and a resolution condemning that
practice adopted. Copies of this reso-
luton are to be circulated to all Build
ing Trades Councils throughout the
state.
A resolution favoring the construc-
ton of Libby, Hells Canyon, Glacier
View and Yellow Tail dams by pub
lie agencies gained unanimous ap-
proval of the convention.
Billings was selected as the site
of the next convention to be held in
December, 1856. Officers elected
were Robert E. Harris, Kalispell, pres
ident; Richard Tiddy, Butte, secre-
tary-treasurer; Paul O'Leary, Bill
ings, 1st vice president; Bernard
Merkle, Bozeman, End vice president;
Willard Delger, Great Falls, 3rd vice
president; Frank Morasko, Glendive,

PLAN II FOSTERS CHISELING OF DISABLED
BY CASUALTY INSURANCE COMPANIES

For many years labor has tried to
kill Plan II (the private insurance
plan) of the workmen's compensation
act. The Industrial Accident Boards
report for fiscal year ending June 80,
1854, proves the wisdom of this poll
cy. The disbursements for fatal acct
dents and medical have been re-
moved from the statistics because
there is little opportunity to chisel by
Plan III in these types of payments.
A compensate injury is one with
more than seven days disability. Plan
III is the state insurance plan. These
are the statistics:
Plan III paid out in benefits
$661,514 for 1 ,198 compensate in
jury cases.
Plan III paid out in benefits
$1,315,727 for 1918 compensate
injury cases.
Plan III (private insurance
plan) pay out rate per compen-
sable injury, $552.
