Congressman Holifield of California,

dissented from the report as wholly

Mike Mansfield called these rec.
concentrations ga great disappoint-
ment." He told the Senate that eff
there is one category of citizens
which We should not treat solely on
a dollar-and-cents basis, it is the
veteran, those who have given of
their time, health and lives in the
service of the United States" He
also pointed out that the existing
number of VA hospital beds is short
of the total authorized by Congress.
Recently we've been told that
radioactive fallout is potential
danger to millions of Americans.

suppose one could argue Jhat the
need for veterans hospital and medi-
cal facilities has reached it's peak.
But this ignores the fact that even
though our veterans population may
decrease its medical needs will in
crease as these men and women get
older
The proposal that needy veterans,
treated for non-service-connected
be required to sign notes
poses what Mr.. Holifield calls "awk-
ward and difficult problems of as
sessing costs and enforcing collec-
lions in future years." 1t also would
create inequities among those who
nave received such care in the past
and those who receive it in the future.

The legislature is the people of
the state reduced in numbers for
convenience, democracy in action
showing forth its weaka esses, also it's
strength.
Section 1. Art. A, Constitution of
the State of Montana provides: "The
powers of this state are divided into
three distinct departments; the leg
islative, executive and judicial, and
no person or collection of persons
charged with the exercise of pow
ers properly belonging to one of
these departments shall exercise any
powers properly belonging to either
of the Others"
Section 5, Art. r, "The supreme
executive power of the state shall be
vested in the Governor, who shall see
that the laws are faithfully executed"
This column has repeatedly called
to the attention of legislators the
constitutional violation; broad pow
ers delegated to the State Fish and
Game Commission. The commission
is an appointive body of the execu-
tive and for them to make laws as
they now do would be consolidation
of the executive and legislative. Leg
islators made many statements but
did nothing to repeal the broad pow
ers; they enlarged the powers.
Thomas Jefferson said: at is not
by the consolidation or concentration
of powers, but by their distribution,
that good government is affected
The present Governor and his Com
mission have denied citizens rights
provided by statutes; right to inspect
public writings.

to date to back up any recommends
ton that we should reduce disability
allowances. In fact quite the con-
trary-they should be increased.
Now for the proposal that Armed
Services dependents would have ac-
cess to federal hospital and medical
facilities only until the federal gov
eminent develops a medical-hospital
insurance program.
One of the reasons that trained
men and women don't make a
career of military service is that
fringe benefits" are constantly
dwindling. We need more incen-
tive, not less, to make military
career attractive to the men and
women we have trained.
At least such an insurance program
should have demonstrated that it is
to meet the need before
these people are turned away from
service hospitals.
Many of these recommendations
are ''repeaters", including the same
criticisms made in the 1949 report
of the first Hoover Commission. That
report met strong opposition in Con-
gress. This one will, too.

The State Personnel Commission
denied these rights to subcommittee
of the House with results when the
appropriations were made the COM
mission received no funds; therefore
the commission is nonresident.
What action did they take against
the Governor and his Fish and Game
Commission? NONE. The whole pro-
cedure of the 34th Assembly on fish
and game can be taken as a VOTE
OF CONFIDENCE to the Governor
and Commission; commission some
times referred to as his Charley Nc
Carthy.
Federal Bureaus and Services, their
hatchetmen, had a field day. With
control of the states wildlife now
in the hands of Governor and Com
mission, the federals will no doubt
reach their objective.
Yes, the 34th adjourned sine die
(without naming a new meeting
time). Had they have delegated pow
ers to the many other commissions
of state as they did the Fish and
Game there would be no necessity
for further legislative sessions. The
Swedish immigrant boy would have
had all in the sack.

THE NEW IDEAS THAT
COMPLICATE TAXATION

The industrial revolution, aided by
an earlier expanding commerce, ush-
cred in a new age; one that greatly
increased the chances for progress. 1t
provided more abundantly the mate
rial necessities of life, made education
available to more people, improved
health conditions and promoted poll
teal democracy. 1t also gave us city
life, better transportation and thus
encouraged the civilizing influence of
association. Together, these social and
economic improvements, it seemed,
had paved the way to life wherein
men could meet all their needs and
satisfy their highest aspirations
Whether or not these changes could
have been made without damage to
the old concepts of what is good,
worthwhile and necessary for the
Brotherhood is not here the question.
Neither is it our purpose to say that
the body of beliefs dominating pre-
industrial life was good, bad or in
different.
The important fact for this discus
sion is that some of the old teachings
and beliefs did suffer severely, some
times by being entirely uprooted at
other times through the process OF
being given new interpretations and
new definitions.
1t is this fact which explains how
we became so split-up into factions,
groups and causes, sometimes uniting
but more often contending, plotting
and scheming against each other.
Because these factions have no
common philosophy of life, but differ,
often vastly, on what is for the COM
mon good, what democracy means,
and what is most notwithstanding
differing sets of values-it becomes

HOOVER COMMISSION SEEKS MAJOR

disqualification and medical services
would be confined to those with serv-
ice-connected ailments and the needy
non-service-connected cases. Even
the needy would be required to sign
notes obligating them to. pay for
their care when they can afford it.
Disability allowances would be re-
duced.
Armed Services - Hospital and
clinical facilities would be reduced
by making one service in each area
responsible for taking care of all
military personnel in that area, re-
gardless of their branch of service.
Dependents would have access to
these facilities only until the federal
government develops a contributory
system of medical and hospital in
surance which also would cover civil
ian employees.

very difficult to agree on tax pro-
gram.
But what are the concepts and be-
liefs that SO divide US?
For that answer we return to the
great material benefits wrought by
the industrial revolution-the( bene-
fits that were SO alluring and satisfy
ing that nothing must be allowed to
Interfere. The mounting protests
against violations of the old codes of
conduct, against usury, avarice, over
emphasis on material things, advan-
tages taken of those less equipped
for the strife for material things and
against the plight of the poor had to
be answered Men can not long re-
main balanced living life opposed
to his philosophy of life. Something
science.
This could be done by setting up
entirely new concepts or by giving
the old one new definitions and new
interpretations.
In addition to this way out-since
man HluSC nave some THEORY Oh IedCu-
ing to guide and defend his actions
new and compelling economic and bio
logic laws could be set up.
Both plans were employed by the
powerful financial, industrial and en-
ploying groups.
Enough of capable and even we'll
intentioned help was at hand to soothe
the conscience and make clear the
way for the trend to make material
things the chief object of life. Already
a doctrine of individual responsibility
was in existence. That doctrine became
the individualism which places major
emphasis on the individuals rights;
the idea that society, the government,
the whole must refrain from imposing
restraints on the individuals ambi-
lions, initiative and activities.
The developing individualism be-
came belief that the egocentricity of
both the child and the adult was moth
ing to fear, that given fairly free
rein, it would work out all right to the
best interests of all. Laissez Fairre,

to the benefit of ALL Franklin in self
interest, invented bi-focals, but some
one else, also in self-interest, invented
ways of selling dangerous adulterated
foods and drugs.
Others refuse to accept the idea
that competition and strife and the
survival of the fittest'' is the law of
life mong human beings Psycholo-
gists, biologists, sociologists and theol-
ogists are at work providing evidence,
abundant evidence, that in order to
attain perfection, the human person
must cooperate with others both to
secure the material needs and to sat-
isfy his hunger for human association
Finally, the most convincing, funda-
mental and unyielding argument
against individualism is the idea that
the primary scope of social life
government, politics-is the perfec-
ton and the development of the hui
man person. This teaching does not
permit major emphasis on the rights
of the individual as such-nor on the
collective whole as such. He is more
than an individual cell in the body
politician island by himself To pro-
mote the common good, the perfection
of the human person, the individual
as a physical unit must submit to the
restrictions and dictates necessary to
make it possible for every human per-
son to have equal chances to become
perfect, condition that is not possible
under extreme individualism.
So here we have the new idea and
concepts that crept into the life of
Americans and the opposition to them.
Together, they explain our conflicts,
the contending forces and why we
have SO much difficulty in deciding
not only what the government should
do-what taxes should be used for
but also how the taxes shall be raised.

job in summarizing this evidence.

leave things alone, became a quite re-
spectacle policy. This belief in indi-
vidualism and Laissez-Faire were in
fluential forces in changing the old
concepts of life and in dividing the
people.
Belief in individualism and Laissez-
Fare did not and probably could not
alone have SO radically changed peo-
pies outlook on life. Another influ-
ence came to its aid.
Just about the time that the large
industrialists and employers of Eng
land were confronted with the worst
protests against child labor, poverty
and unhealthy labor conditions, the
great scholar and economist, Thomas
Robert Nautilus, came to their defense
with his essay on Population In this
essay he tried to prove that poverty
and distress are unavoidable. Human
life consisted of constant struggle, he
argued-a struggle in which the weak
er persisted and the more desirable
survived. That, he argued, is so be-
cause more individuals of every species
are born than can be supported. SO
the fittest always survive. This doc
trine did not at once become popular;
it seemed harsh and brutal; not before
some twenty years later, after the ap-
pearance of Darwin's Origin of Species
with the pat phrases like "the struggle
for existence, survival of the fit
test" biologic law These catchy
words helped to sell competition as
a law of life and dignified it with be-
ing called sound biologic law From
this point about 1859-the new law
of life became popular with, probably,
the majority.
Now if all the people had whole
heartedly accepted Laissez Faire,
competition as the law of life, and the
individualism which became so ex-
IRENE, America would not have be-
come SO split up into contending fac
lions. But all people did not accept
the new doctrines.
