On Friday evening the Montana

wise use of Montana's soil, water,

recreationaI resources and seeks to
provide a public forum for the study
and discussion of Montana's conser-
walton needs and problems. Through
wider participation in the Councils
activities, Mr.. Helburn said, con-
servation action by Montana people
will be stimulated.
He added that the activities of the
Council include the sponsorship of
the annual statewide Montana Con-
servation Week which is climaxed by
the annual meeting; sponsorship of
the Conservation Caravan, week
long tour of selected areas of Mon
tana to view land management prac-

Bad Weather Blamed

Seasonal upturn in number of en-
ployed wage earners in Montana from
February to March failed to match
the March records of recent years,
according to the unemployment COM
pensation commission. Estimated in
dustrial employment for March was
$4,000, only 700 higher than in
February and 5000 below the figure
of March, 1864. The February to
March gain was 1,700 in 1854, in
1853 it was 1900, and in 1852
gain of 1900 was reflected
Weather unsuitable to work on
outside projects is ascribed by the
commission as principal reason for
this years deficit in March employ
ment. Adverse weather prevailed
through most of the month, and over
nearly all of the state, according to
reports.
Usual resumption of work on many
construction projects failed to ma
terialize during the month, leaving
the March volume of unemployment
virtually level with that of January
and February New unemployment
was added when logging and lumber
ing activities were curtailed, due to
snow and road conditions, and when
some construction projects which had
been in progress throughout the win
ter were forced by adverse weather
to shut down for time.

The oil producers are supporting

imports be held to 1919 of domestic

President Eisenhower's cabinet
committee on energy supplies recon-
mended several weeks ago that the
big companies voluntarily limit their
imports to 1870 of domestic demand.
An interesting sidelight, reported
by Platt's Oilgram, an oil industry
publication, is that leaders of the
National Oil Jobbers Council have
suggested that their organization
shift its position on the question OF
regulating natural gas prices at the

The Oil Jobbers have advocated
unlimited oil imports and passage of
a law that would free gas producers

concerning

Weydemeyer, Fortine, concerning
the role of the Montana Conservation
Council in tying together the various
conservation interests, organizations,
and programs now active throughout
the state; on Friday afternoon there
will be a forum on recreational roads;
and on Saturday morning, April 30,
the public use of privately owned
lands will be discussed.
These open discussions will offer
opportunities for bringing out into
the open the many problems which
have plagued recreationists and pri-
yate land owners. Charles C. Bradley,
Montana State College, Bozeman,
will moderate the forum on recrea-
tional roads. Some of the questions
which will no doubt come up will in
clude: Should logging roads be used
by recreationists? Should roads be
constructed into wilderness areas?
On Saturday morning, April 80,
Judge w. w. LESLEY, 18th District
Court, Bozeman, will review the legal
aspects of the public use of privately
owned lands prior to the forum dis
cussion of the problem. The relation
ship between the land owner and
those who wish to use his lands for
recreational purposes will receive an
objective airing. More and more this
troublesome problem is becoming the
concern of sportsmen's organizations.
All too often it has become a matter
for the courts to decide. Both sports
men and land owners, as well as recre-
ationists, will find this discussion ex-
tremely interesting.
President A. G. Peterson, Eastern
Montana College of Education, Bill
lings, will address the luncheon group
on Friday on the subject of national
organizations comparable to the Mon
tana Conservation Council. The ma
tional organizations which integrate
conservation interests have been ac-
