Agriculture is Montana's number one source

This year it is anticipated that Montana farm
ers will take another seven per cent cut in

Highway Financing
THE WEIGHT MILE PROPOSAL

Sub. HB s6-by Committee on Highways
and Transportation proposed that weight
mile method of computing truck taxes be set
up in Montana to put highway financing on a
more equitable basis Commonly known as
the Oregon law, Sub. lib &c. had it been
enacted, would not only have forced long
haul truck operators to have paid their fair
share of highway costs, but would also have
greatly reduced the gross inequities now ex-
perienced under Gross Vehicle Weight tax
schedules by occasional haulers trucks operat-
ing primarily within incorporated towns, lum-
Der haulers etc. Under truck taxing schedules
of Sub. HB SO, it is estimated that approx
mately four million dollars in additional high
way revenue would have been available for
approximately five and one-half
million dollars in federal funds.

PREVAILING WAGES" ON
PUBLIC CONSTRUCTION

HB 2O-by Durkee*-as approved by the
House, called for wages paid on all construc-
ton jobs of the various divisions of state
government to be t'set by collective bargain
ing'' or, in counties where collective bargain
ing is nonresident, such wage scales to be
"the standard prevailing rate of wages" in
the county for the same type of work.
When HB 20 reached the Senate that body
promptly deleted all mention of collective
bargaining, and the proposal was passed
without dissenting vote. Although ''watered-
down., the new law affords more wage pro-
lection to construction workers on public
contracts than was formerly the case. Bill
signed into law by Governor.

in county being paid on all public construc-
