Representative Price. Demo-

He said in an interview q bill
now being considered would fail
to develop sufficient trained
manpower or make what he
called needed improvements In

Mr.. Price is a member Of q
House Armed Services subcom-
mittee now considering a bill
which, among other features,
would permit 5000 youths un-
der 1874 to volunteer each year
for six months instead Of two
years basic training. They
would have to agree to 91z sub

"The prevalent practice" Mr..
Hoover said, sis to handle such
an offender like any other GRIM
inal and to punish him according
to the gravity of his crime,
rather than to give him psychi-

Lack of Realism.
Nothing could be less realistic
than this idea. embodied in many
laws and implemented by many
judges, that the sex offender
should be treated like any other
criminal.
Police records all over the
country show that punishment
alone almost never reforms such
an offender. Hardly a day passes
that serious crime is not COM
mitted somewhere by q degen-
crate who, in the past. has been
convicted over and over again
for similar crimes"
Mr.. Hoover said that in the

largely from social and family
upheavals which occurred dur

Mr.. Hoover said inadequate

tribute.
He said courts and probation

Saying that often there are
no facilities for treating a sex
offender and the judge must
either release him or put him
in Jail. Mr.. Hoover added:

State Chamber of Commerce
President L. P. Strope, Malta,
said the book lis the first COM
prehensive industrial survey and
directory of manufacturers in
Montana in ten years"
The book is split into two Sec
tions. The first portion of the
book includes an industrial sur
vey of the state. 1T serves to il
lustrate the great potential of
Montana for industrial develop
ment," Bill Browning of the State
Chamber said.
The second section is a direct
DRY of producing Montana Manu-
facturers.
The book was compiled and
published as public service by
the Montana Chamber of Com
merce. 1t took the chamber staff
ID months to compile the infor-
nation, Browning said.
He added that the book was a
project outlined by the State
Chambers Industrial commit
tee headed by R. c. Setterstrom,
Butte. Browning said the COM
mittee has recognized for years
the need for such a book"
Montana's population, accord
ing to statistics compiled by the
State Board of Health and utility
firms in Montana, is listed in the
book as approximately $4,000
persons.
The industrial survey section
of the book points out that agri-
culture sis perhaps the most i'm
portanat segment of Montana's
economy" 1t says that 81 per
cent of Montana's labor force
was engaged in agriculture dur
ing 1854.
The survey of Montana'S in
dustrial resources illustrate that
the state ranks first in the ma
ton in zinc production, has the
second largest coal resources in
the nation, and says forest re-
sources "have only been tapped"
Crude oil production is listed
in the book as averaging 10000
barrels per day with indications
that the potential output by
1860 may be as great as 100000
barrels per day"
Illustrating the states power
resources, the industrial survey
section Of the 56-page book says
The Glacier reporter. [volume] (Browning, Mont.) 1953-current, 1955-08-05

there is adequate power avail
able for any industrial or COM
mercial expansion desired"
Montana's recreational facili-
ties are also included in the first
section of the book. 1t points out
that SO per cent or $500 square
miles of Montana is public land.
Montana has over 1900 lakes
and more than $4,000 miles of
fishable streams" The recrea-
tional portion of the industrial
survey section also says that
hunters in Montana last year re-
gistered approximately 70 per
cent success.
The Montana Manufacturers
Directory classifies all the states
producing manufacturers by pro-
duct. 1t lists 1904 manufacture
ers in Montana.
Food professors top the list OF
Montana manufacturers in the
directory with 472 food process
