person was entitled to receive Sill
COSTS benefits if he had silicosis to
such a degree that it resulted in his
total disability so as to prevent him
from engaging in gainful occupa-
ton, and the term 'gainful occupa-
ton was not construed to mean oc-
casional or intermittent light en-
ployment where ability to do manual
labor was not essential Substitute
House Bill 204 of the 1866 legislative
session amended the definition of
the term 'gainful occupation to mean
any person having an income from
any other source exceeding $3.50 per
month.
1.-THE question arises as to
whether the legislature intended
by the 1855 amendment to deny
Silicosis benefits to a person al
though totally disabled from Sill
COSTS if such person has independ-
emit income in excess of $50 per
month, or whether the legislature
those having income from another
occupation, in excess of $50 per
month
"Mr Rotering told the attorney
general that in the opinion of the
officials of Silver Bow county, the
legislature intended to exclude sill
COSTS welfare benefits only for those
persons having income from another
occupation, in excess of $3.50 per
month. MineMill and all-labor hope
for an early and favorable opinion
on this very important matter from
the attorney general.
"The controversy over this
amendment points up the need for
decent occupational disease legis-
lation in this state" Lee empha-
sized.
Gin February of this year." he
"there were 625 silicosis
cases reported in this state. Of this
total, 448 resided in Silver Bow
county. 1t is estimated that silicosis
payments total 100000 every two
years. This means that the cost of
the welfare benefits to silicotics,
cost which should be borne by the
companies where the victims con-
tracted this dread disease, is instead
borne by the taxpayers gift to
the corporations of nearly a million
dollars every two years.
CLEARLY, something has to be done
politically to place the cost of in
1ustrial diseases where it belongs
into the employers whose industries
ire responsible" Lee said in conclud- |
ng his radio address.

NOTHING TO BE GAINED
BY PARTISAN GROUP

cat this time, | do not see how
the proposed bipartisan committee
can serve any real purpose, other
than educational land even its value
in that field might be open to ques-
ton.
"Conceding that such a committee
is appointed, and does come up with
a report, who is going to accept it?
What real value will it have, other
than Institutional. 1t still will not be
law.
"Only the legislature, in regular
or special session, or the courts can
finally resolve this oil controversy.
"The question is, Can we in Mon
tana act with civilized intelligence on
a matter of such grave concern to US
ALP In answer to my own question,

question, and that is by leg
islative acceptance of the terms
laid down by the majority mem
bers of our State Land Board.
To continue court contests may well
last for years, and even then, the
outcome would be in doubt. 1t would
be much more economical and intelli-
gent to have special session of our
state legislature enact legislation de-
sired, and declared necessary, by our
State Land Boards ajority member
ship. At this point, | should like to
stress that this proposed legislation,
should it prove defective, can be
changed at the next regular legisla-
tive session, to be held in 1857. [
repeat, the legislation to be enacted
eft the insistence of the majority mem
bers of the State Land Board could
be changed by the following legisla-
ture which will have been elected at
the next General Election.
NOT A NEW PROPOSITION
"A legislative session limited to
the enactment of certain and specific
laws is not new proposition-lim
ed by a 'Gentlemen's Agreement
that is" he continued, zone such
session was recently held in Utah,
where too the Legislature was called
to rectify legislative error.
while it is true that come of the
members of the present Legislature
Id L - Il 49,
they had previously cast in enacting
the presently disputed oil legisla-
ton, I am confident that our Mon
tana legislators are of sufficiently
statesman-like stature to accept,
without too much haggling, legisla-
ton necessary to enable orderly pro-
cedure of the leasing of our states
oil lands. If they know and under
stand the situation, / am sure they
will react to the states best inter-
ests.
SEVERAL NECESSARY STEPS
Before this proposed special SEES
sion is called, steps should first be
taken to ascertain just what legisla-
ton would be acceptable to the
majority members of the State Land |
Board, Arnold HI. Olsen, Sam w.
and Mary M. Condor. The
of Governor Hugo Aron-
son to accept these conditions must
be obtained" the Yellowstone Demo
cratic leader continued. "Then these
should be carefully ex-
planned to the leaders and membership
of both parties and houses of the
legislative assembly. If and when this
has been done and agreement reached,
then and only then should Governor
Aronson issue his Special Session call,
and it should be clearly stated and
not only by the members
of the legislature, but by the people
Of the state as well, that this session
s called for Limited Purpose only,
and that that purpose has been agreed
upon by a 'Gentleman's Agreement.

Uniform State
Assessments Plan
Receives Backing

A subcommittee of the Legis-
lative Council has called for uni
form property assessments through
out Maryland to bring into balance
state aid for public schools.
1t also recommended that the
State reduce slightly the percent
age of income tax it now returns
to political subdivisions in order
to give the State more money for
its own fiscal operations.
The recommendations were con-
tanned in a report to the council
by the subcommittee on state and
local fiscal relationships headed by
Sen. William S James (D-Har-
ford
Noting that aid to schools is
based on property assessments
which vary from 25 to 90 percent
of full cash value in political sub
divisions, the subcommittee said:
so long as this situation exists,
our state educational program will
work inequities by favoring those
Jurisdictions which undervalue
their property for tax purposes
against those which assume their
full responsibilities by making fair
and reasonable assessments.
although the dollar volume of
state aid so affected is not large,
the principle of equality is highly
important and it is being flouted
at the present time"
State aid to Baltimore City and
the counties totaled $4,000, 1863 last
year. with S28,4O9O54 going to the
counties in sharply varying
amounts
The subcommittee said the orig
inal purpose of state school aid
laws was to provide Z balance be-
tween populous areas where the
taxable wealth is large against
the moral right of each student TO
receive equal educational advan-
ltagcS in areas where the popula-
ton and taxable wealth are small"
Unless assessments are uniform
throughout the state, the program
will operate unfairly it said
The subcommittee recommended
that this uniformity be achieved
through strong administrative ac-
ton" OF the State Tax Commission.
This can be done in the form of
expanded supervision of local as
SCISSORS by skilled supervisory per-
sonnet" of the state commission,
the report said.
