by Purdy ct al, is in the hopper,
the purpose of which appears to be to
legalize modified form of the dis
credited old brokerage system"
which resulted in so much corrup-

reports are that several other bills
including one to give bar operators
a wholesale discount on purchases at
state liquor stores will be introduced.
Another bill repeatedly would outlaw
retail sales of beer by grocery stores.
Grocers may retaliate to this latter
measure by urging enactment of
legislation outlawing the entire sa-

once again being made only through
state-owned stores.

ANACONDA - The legislative
committee of the Montana Federation
of Teachers has announced that it
will seek meeting with Governor
J. Hugo Aronson to secure an inter
probation of his position on school
finance as it affects the School Foun-
dation Program. In his message to
the legislature, Governor Aronson
advised that school costs should be
borne by the local counties and dis
tricts. This would alter the principle
of state aid which was established
by the 1949 legislature when it adopt
ed the Foundation Program for school
operation.
The MET committee, in reiterating
its policy of supporting the School
Foundation Program, also pointed out
that this program was set up to
equalize educational opportunities
Montana. 1t was explained
hat ability to support education
varies over the state because of the
great variations in property valua-
ion which exists among the dis
riots and counties.
1t was felt that the Governors
tand, if it implies the suggestions
hat the School Foundation Program
hould be abandoned, and that schools
hould depend upon local support, is
4 contradiction to the trend through
ut the United States, whereby the
tates have recognized the necessity
or increased state assistance in an
fort to equaIize educational costs

MISS TAXES LESS
GENEROUS Than
LADY Named Lieu

TUPELO, Miss (CNS) THE Tu-
pelo Journal heard that "public pow
er pays no taxes" so it's staff set
about to find out.
Tupelo owns its electric distribu-
tion system and buys power from
Tennessee Valley Authority. For
comparison, the Journal selected Nc
Comb, Miss, because it's nearer Tu-
pelo's size Q1,50O people, than any
other city in the state. McComb is
served by Mississippi Power & Light
Company, a Dixon subsidiary.
The Journal found that Tupelo's
utilities paid $41,181 to the city
treasurer "in lieu of taxes" last year.
MP&L paid McComb $10,884 in
taxes.
Said the Journal, when differ
ence of 100000 for the city treasury
is involved, we might ask anyone
the usual power company
about lack of taxation
IN the IVA area, DO you prefer Miss

Tupelo's utilities, the Journal dis
covered, pay twice as much in taxes

weekend put their organization on
record in solid support of the pro-
posal that trucks operating in Mon

action favoring weight-mile was taken
at the semi-annual convention of
Montana District Council, Lumber &
Sawmill Workers-AFL, in Hamilton
last weekend.
Convention delegates also ex-
pressed their continued opposition
to any increase in the gasoline tax
unless taxes on trucks are raised
to a more equitable level with those
paid by car owners.
Other convention resolutions in

f8-YEAR Old VOTE
LEGISLATION AGAIN
BEFORE the HOUSE

Legislation proposing that the vot-
ing age be lowered to Is years has
again been introduced in the legisla-
ture. House Bill So by Durkee, Cum
ming and Ringling, proposes that
the state Constitution be amended
lowering the voting age minimum
from 81 to 18.
The Veterans of Foreign Wars for
a number of years have urged low
ering the voting age. President Eisen-
hover is also on record for the 1S-
year old vote. And, of course, among
teen-agers, the sentiment is very
strong for extending the franchise.
Teen-agers argue that:
1. Eighteen-year-olds are held fully
responsible in the eyes of the law
for any criminal acts that may be
perpetrated by youngsters of that
age.
2. The state Constitutional pro-
vision of a minimum voting age of
21 is outmoded because young people
today have far better educations at
18 years old than did their grand
fathers at 21-back in 1889. Sixty
five years ago few people of FL had
completed eight years of school,
while today, almost all young people
of 18 are either through high school,
or are in their senior year.
3. The three-year inactive period
between graduation and the 21-year
minimum age results in many losing
interest in government. At 18 they |
have just completed various courses
to the functioning of rep
resentative government, and are eager
to assume their full responsibilities of
a. Teen-agers today work for
living, drive cars and trucks, actively
engage in almost every kind of indi-
vidual and community activity, and
otherwise fulfill the various obliga-
ions of citizenship, except, they are
without the franchise and the right
@ help determine who shall govern.
5. If young men and women of IL
q 21 are considered the "cream Of
he CROP when it comes to defending
,ur country, then, they should be on
IN equal footing, franchise-wise, to
he rest Of the population which be-
ause of infirmities or other consid-
rations just don't measure up to the

ism under fire by three 18-year-olds

Farm Bureau Official Hits
Political Price Fixing

BOZeman - Roger flemlnR,
executive secretary of the Amer.

against political price fixing in
agriculture in a Monday speech
before Bozeman civic club men,

Fleming is in Bozeman to ad-
dress the 36th annual convention
of the Montana Farm Bureau
which opened Monday.

If the agriculturists succumb

ing, as contrasted with the limit.
ed use of price supports to en-
courage orderly marketing, the
interests of viewpoints of farm
ers eventually will be subordin-
ated by political managers to
the interests and viewpoints of
the numerically superior con-
sumers, Fleming said.
He spoke out in favor putting
agriculture back in keeping
with four points which he said
have been the foundation of the
United States economic success
as a nation" He said this has
been based on private owner
ship, private management, oper-
alton for a profit, and a COM
petitive economy.
The Farm Bureau official, top
executive officer in the organi-
cation which he said represents
SO per cent of the organized
American farmers, did not offer
specific remedies for solving ag-
riculture'S problems.
He stressed that Farm Bureau
position is removal of govern.
ment controls and a return to
private ownership and manage
ment for a profit.
Fleming will make a major ad-
dress to Montana FB members
at a Tuesday night banquet.
More than 300 FB members
from the % counties are repre-
sented at the convention.
At the opening session Mon
day, Charles Butler of Chicago,
head of the AFBF land and
water use committee, discussed
commodities structures.
After his talk, state commodity
committees, including livestock,
field crops, dairy and land and
water use met. State Farm Bu-

PHENOTHIAZINE, used to control in
ternal prasites in sheep, has been avail
able commercially since 1889. During
the first year the drug was marketed
only about 900 pounds were Sold Today
the nations stockmen purchase nearly
5 million pounds annually.
While phenothiazine is net cure fer
stomach worms, hookworms, intestinal
wireworms and other internal parasites,
it has been found to give satisfactory
protection. The Agricultural Research
Service, USDA, has been conducting
tests with phenothiazine since 1912 and
makes these recommendations for its
use:
A flock that is infested with internal
parasites should first be given Their
apeutic dose, one ounce for sheep, one
half ounce for lambs. 1t may be given
in feed, by capsule or in drench This
should rid them of worms. However,
an additional dose may be needed in Sc
we're cases.
