five deer, and very few signs of there
being many more" he said. "In fact,
for all intents and purposes, it is
dead canyon. For almost its entire
length, cliffs rise from five hundred
to twenty-five hundred feet, starting
generally right at the waters edge.
''Insofar as the Big Horn river is
concerned, there are very few fish,
and what fish there are in that river
are trash fish. We saw not one single
fish-eating bird in the entire canyon.
Buffalo, elk and deer do abound in
the draws leading to the canyon, but
these will be aided, rather than hurt
by the Yellowtail reservoir.
Except for one small strip, prob
ably less than four miles wide, the
cliffs are of limestone. That one strip
is a sedimentary conglomerate; so
any statements about gold in the
canyon, are even more false than the
claims of its being a great game re-
fuge," he concluded.

There must be a differential between
what AS&R pays its employees and
what other companies in the industry
pay theirs. There must be a differen-
tial not only this year, but every
year In short, the company says
the union must agree to a new for
mula of bargaining with AS&R by
which it will be compelled to accept
substandard wages and conditions
year after year :"
Exploding the claim about "poor
little AS&R, the union points out:
AS&R is not "little company"
1t is the second largest company in
the non-ferrous metals industry in
the country. 1t. has some $4,000 en-
ployes -. 1t sales volume is greater
than Anaconda, Kennecott or Phelps
Dodge 1t owns great non-ferrous
metals properties in Mexico, Peru,
Australia, Canada, Nicaragua and
Saudi Arabia. 1t is now developing
properties in South America and else
where, including the United States,
which Will make 1T one OF the biggest
copper producers, as well as one OF
the biggest smelling and refining
companies in the world
Copper is still the biggest money
maker for AS&R. 1t is the largest
copper smelling and refining corpora
ton in the United States. 1t controls
1870 of total United States smelling
and 26% of total refining
With the price of copper
at 1910 cents at the refinery, the
average price received for copper is
200 higher than last year and should
mean about $12 million more in prof
it's for the last nine months of this
year. That SIP million alone would
more than cover a 20-cent increase
for ALL AS&R workers in ALL oper
atoms.

EAST HELENA WORKERS Determined TO HANG TOUGH
FOR DECENT SETTLEMENT

AS&R is the largest lead smelter
and refiner in the United States. 1t
controls more than 509o of all smelter
and refinery capacity, and lead is
selling at 5 cents, higher than it has
ever been except during the acute
shortage in 1913 and the Korean War.
o AS&R controls $50 of all zinc
smelling and refining in the United
States, and is among the top five IN
the industry. It's position is pretty
healthy compared to the largest single
operator (Anaconda) which controls
only 245go. With zinc demand going
up all the time lit now stands only
29o below the all-time high, AS&R's
zinc profits, even without price in
crease, will go up. However, with the
price of zinc up a cent pound over
last year, the same rate of production
as in 1854 will bring AS&R about an
extra ST. million from zinc this year.
"These are the facts" the state
ment continues, "and AS&R's claims
cannot stand up against them.
''The AS&R workers will stay
an increase that benefits it's en-.
ployes to the same extent as other
workers in the industry. AS&R
workers will stay on strike until
they receive pattern settlement.
"AS&R workers must pay the same
taxes, must send their children to
the same schools, must go to the same
hospitals when they are sick, and are
burdened with the same high cost of
living as the rest of American work
ers. They cannot, nor will they, agree
to any doctrine of 'exceptionalism
applied to AS&R. The strike in AS&R
will be over when the company aban-
dons any idea of establishing a diff
ferent wage system in the non-ferrous
metals industry" the statement con-
cludes.

CHICAGO-(CNS) of
the Cooperative League took a dim
view of that hamburger fried in up
state New York, July 10, with atomic
power.
Lewis L. Strauss, atomic energy
commission chairman, flipped switch
in Schenectady suburb. Doing so
he turned 1880 kilowatts of Acc
power into the system of Niagara
Mohawk Power Corporation. A power
company customer in nearby Ballston
Spa cooked a hamburger on her cleo
trio range. And a small army of
photographers recorded the event for
posterity.
But coop leaders, meeting here
next day, by formal resolution, Gin
sisted" that Acc live up to the law"
and that it act to protect "the rights
Of rural electric co-ops."
Whenever Acc sells power from
one of its reactors, the 1854 atomic
energy act requires that non7profit
groups have first chance at it.
These include co-ops, cities, and
other pubic agencies.
The atomic power comes from an
Acc reactor at West Milton, N. Y.
This reactor is model of one in
stalled in the U. S. submarine Sea
Wolf. Even so, it makes enough power
to supply city of 10000 people.
Mohawk gets it at mills a
kilowatt hour.
Cities and co-ops wanted the pow
er. Illion, N. Y, and Holyoke, Mass,
both with municipal plants, and Della
ware County Rural Electric Cooper
alive at Delhi, N. Y, asked for the
power last January.
But they would need to build
transmission lines to West Milton

Miss Condon's remarks were oc-
casioned by a report by Sam Kahn,
director of the Teachers Placement
Division of Montana State Employ
ment Service, which showed that there
are presently 1913 rural teacher va
cancies, and only 20 applicants. In
all but four instances the salaries Of
fered ranged from $4,000 to $4,000
per year.
To fill rural school vacancies, it
will doubtless be necessary that a
large number of emergency teaching
certificates will have to be issued
this year. Present requirements for
emergency certification are, for first
applicants in Montana: two years of
elementary teacher preparation in an
accredited teacher training institu-
ton. for Montana experienced teach
ers, minimum of one year of college
teacher preparation from an accred-
tied level institution, plus attendance
for at least II credit hours at every
summer session until the standard
certificate is achieved
Pointing out that teachers must
have certificates to teach, Miss Con-
don stated that cit is against the law

GASOLINE RETAILER
NOT FREE, HOUSE
GROUP SAYS

WASHINGTON, d. C.-(CNS)
The fellow who leases a service
station from a major oil company
SIS not in fact independent" a
House small business subcommittee
agreed, July 13. He's controlled by
the major firm.
Major companies "foment" gaso-
line price wars by cutting prices
to station operators in one area,
while holding prices elsewhere, the
group, headed by Congressman
James Roosevelt (D-Calif.) found,
The big firms have often "coerced"
retail gasoline dealers into these
price wars so as to gobble up the
business of off-brand retailers.
Price wars don't benefit the con-
sumner, the congressman found. In
stead, they result ultim ately in
eliminating a substantial amount of
price competition among both
brand and off-brand Dealers
The committee had no remedies.
1t urged that the study continue,
that the Justice Department. check
for antitrust violations, and that
major firms consider giving longer
station leases so the operators will
have more independence.
Others in the group are Tom
Steed (D-Okla.) and Timothy P.

the power to the non-profit groups
and then charged the co-ops for this
service when it sold them the atomic
power.
They cited Aces failure to ne
gotiateo such a contract ito deliver
this power to co-ops and cities in ac-
cordance with the law" This, they
said, "violates the priority rights of
these non-profit groups. "The prece-
dent far outweighs the economic i'm
portance of the electric energy in

"There is no foundation in fact to
the assertion made in Great Falls
this week that Big Horn Canyon is,
or ever was hunting ground of any
Importance" Willard E. Fraser, Bill
lings, stated Thursday.
Fraser, who has just completed a
boat trip through the Canyon from
Lowell, Wyoming, to the site of the
proposed Yellowtail Dam, said that
there is absolutely no evidence that
the Indians, present or prehistoric,
ever used the Canyon for hunting
or living quarters. The caves are too
high up, and generally of too steeply
slanted floors, to have ever been
used as living quarters. Eraser
speaks authoritatively here, for he
spent several years with Carnegie
Institution as an archaelogist.)
Fraser said that one of the things
that would impress any travellers
through the steeply-walled canyon,
was the almost complete lack of
wild life. Even birds, except for
few eagles and hawks, are almost
non-existent. A few deer and elk
do occasionally come down the
canyon, but the lack of suitable
forage prevents any great number
of these animals.
In the entire trip, we saw only

gions urged that the bonding capacity
be raised to SO on the elementary
and SO on the high school district
evaluation. (Such legislation passed
the 1855 House unanimously, but fell
short of the required two-thirds vote
in the Senate)
The necessity for the program of
reclassification, re-valuation and re-
assessment of property was pointed
out by every region reporting.
Present federal aid programs
should be continued, it was unani-
mously concurred, ut opinions
ranged from emphatic opposition to
a feeling that if the state won't meet
its own needs, then the federal gov
eminent should.
HB 317 of 1855 Legislature, by Holtz,
McInnis and Holecek, proposed rails
ing certification requirements for
elementary teachers in Montana to
four years of college training by
1853. This would not have applied
to teachers now certified. Bill failed
of passage in House 46-44 by virtue
of almost solid Republican opposi-
ton plus opposition by five "coaf~
pany-cratsv from Silver Bow and one

Caledonia
Another example of the same
thing creative literary work
growing out of an outside trip
was furnished by Caledonia's two
third-grade rooms. They wrote and
produced a playlet about the Wes-
tern Reserves first settlers from
Connecticut, as an outgrowth of
their recent trip to the Historical
Museum. Their play was given to
the three upper grades.
Under the supervision Of their
two student teachers from the
"other" Western Reserve, Miss
Sandra Grayson and Mrs. Dorothy
McKabe, they had prepared scenes
showing the covered wagon jour-
ney Of the pioneers to the Ohio
country, their household chores
such as the making Of butter and
preparation of other foods, and the
mems tasks Of hunting and fish
ing. Previous use had been made
of the same information learned
through their trip, in the writing
of themes and holding of class dis
cussions.

Chambers
Last Thursday afternoon, the
three sixth-grade classes of
Chambers School assembled to
hear and watch an illustrated lee
ture "Three Thousand Years in
Thirty Minutes" 1t was delivered
by Mr.. Bruce Holderbaum, art
teacher in Shaw High School, now
also the art coordinator in the
elementary schools.
The children, pupils of Miss Eve
Hunter, Miss Mary Kappus, and
Mr.. George Dion, learned a lot
about the development of arches.
They saw the earliest arch Of the
ancient Egyptians, the post-and-
Intel type, which was nothing
more than a doorway with long
stone on the top Of it.
Then the inverted "V" of the
corbelled arch followed, formed by
successively approaching layers of
stone and topped by single stone
at the apex; this distributed the
pressure somewhat, but not Nen-
tirely. This was followed by the
round arch of the Roman temples,
topped by the magic keystone,
which was so cleverly invented
that the harder you press on it,
the tighter the arch becomes.
Finally the pointed Gothic arch
of the northern Cathedrals came
along, allowing great height to
admit lots of sun in wintry clim-
ates; it was accompanied by
beautiful stained glass windows,
which turned the sunlight into
warm colors for the churches. A
person wouldn't believe that such
practical things as weight, SUM-

Superior School children are prov.

graders are decorating the two
stairwell windows facing on Lam.
bert ave., with the western win.
dow showing a boy and girl light.
ing the eight candles of the Chan
nukah candelabrum, and the east
ern window showing the Three
Wise Men following the Christmas
Star.
Eight sixth graders drew the
design on paper first, to be trans
ferred in pencil to the whitened
glass. The fifth graders will block
in the solid areas. The resulting
effect will be a suitable contri-
button to the holiday spirit of the
Superior area.
The little ones have caught the
spirit, too. Mrs. Ruth Kregenow's
first grade children took in the
downtown Christmas decorations
last Thursday. They saw the SID
Christmas tree, gay Public Square
and returned via the Rapid Tran
sit-the first trip on the Rapid for
many Of them.
Meanwhile, the Railways are
blossoming with Christmas decora-
tions. The undergraduates have a
display of paper bells, which they
colored themselves. The first grade
children cut out and pasted up a
long train of cars filled with toys.
Their section of wall included
cashiers window, so up and over
the window went their train, like
real train climbing a hill.
ROzelle
At Rozelle, it is the bulletin
boards that catch the eye. These
were not all finished when SIX
SIZES viewed them last week. but
the different grades were hard
at work on their respective dis
plays.
Mrs. Eleanor Clark's fifth
graders have created a Winter
scene that is as colorful as
Christmas greeting card. At the
top Of the west stairs, it shows
boys and girls in brilliant warm
clothing coasting and skating and
perhaps throwing an occasional
SNOWFALL or two. 1t is interesting

ton like this. Most younger chill
dren draw profiles and bodies

sion that all such activity in East
Cleveland's schools is done at the
expense Of straight learning sub
iccts, SIX SIZES is happy to re-
that this is not the case. The
English themes written about
recent trip to the Cleveland Mus
cum of Natural History by Miss
