COOP TAX CASE GOES
TO SUPREME COURT

WASHINGTON, d. C.-(CNS)-
The Supreme Court will soon be
asked to rule on whether a farmer
must pay income tax on non-cash
refunds the year he gets them or the
year they're redeemed in cash.
The court will be asked to search
the record in the case of Moe VS..
Earle, decided in San Francisco, Oc-
tober %. Moe, an Oregon farmer,
earned coop refunds in 1912 In
stead of cash, he and other members
took Certificates of contribution to
revolving capital funds" The coop
redeemed these in cash during 1949
and 1861.
Moe didn't pay a tax on the re-
funds. He says they were taxable
in 1912 and the U. S. can't collect
the tax now. Earle, the internal reve-
nue. collector, disagreed. He says the
refunds were taxable in 1949 and
1851 when Moe got the cash.
Both a district court and the u. s.
court upheld the collector.
The government took exactly the
opposite position in a similar case
in Florida, and another circuit court
upheld this view, also. In this case,
involving B. A. Carpenter, the gov
eminent held that similar coop re-
fund certificates were taxable the
year issued.

can be committed for the violation
of any city ordinance. He did not de-
fend the Juvenile law, but he said his
clients had acted within it as it stood.
At the close of the hearing the
Chief Justice told Anderson, "You
have done a splendid job with what
was thrown in your lap" and Ander-
son replied eff attorneys could make
their own cases they would be much
better"
In reporting this case our intent is
not, as some would have you be-
lieve, to aid and albeit juvenile delin-
quency. A greater principle was at
stake when it reached the court. 1t
is to be hoped some steps may be
taken to correct the law so this sort
of thing does not happen again.
Corrective measures in the juve-
nile delinquency field must be taken
before the juvenile reaches a dis
trict judge.
Judge Fall has done some very
good work with juveniles in Helena.
When our own id was before him
he was most fair.
But the 1857 legislature should
give careful scrutiny to this law that
makes it possible for educ process"
to be denied.

his parents was not at issue.
When the attorneys for the boys
mother tried to find out why he had
been committed to the industrial
school there were no records avail
able; when they read the commit
ment papers they contained nothing
that had any relationship to what
occurred; and Skedd contended,
there was no sworn testimony to in
dictate the reason the boy was COM
mitted.
Ralph ]. Anderson, attorney for
District Judge Fall, and Juvenile
Officer Robert Kirkland, admitted
the contentious of Skedd were true,
but said they were acting within the
framework of the juvenile law.
Anderson said he does not believe
the juvenile law is constitutional
that he would not have voted for it
if he had been a legislator-but as
the law stands Fall and Kirkland had
done nothing wrong.
Justice Horace Davis said it looked
as if the records in the case "were in
someone's vest pocket, to which An
derson said the law requires all rec
ords in juvenile cases be kept secret.
The chief justice, Adair, then asked,
GLOW do you appeal from a secret
record?"
Attorney Anderson said he con-
tended there did not have to be any
written complaint in a juvenile case.
To which Justice Bottomly said,
"Those are the kind of records they
had in Germany and now have in
Russia. We don't have that type of
court"
Anderson said, according to the
law as it stands, a juvenile can be
sent to Miles City for forgetting to
put a penny in a parking meter-he

1867 LEGISLATIVE PAY

Contrary to some reports given
wide circulation over the state, mem
bers of the 1857 Legislative Assembly
will not receive a $40 per day ex-
pense account.
Chapter %, Section 1 of the 1855
session laws amended the salary
schedule of legislators by raising the
daily pay of legislators from $40 to
$40 day. In the same section, mile
age for one round trip each session
to the seat of government was in
creased to seven cents. Under Sec
ton 2 of Chapter %, the daily pay of
the Speaker of the House and Presi-
dent of the Senate (Lieutenant Gov
ernor) was increased from $40 to $25.
Nowhere in Chapter %, or in any
other law passed by the 1855 Legisla-
ture, was a daily expense account
set up for legislators.
Accordingly, instead Of legislators
elected this November receiving a
maximum of $50 day for their
labors, they will receive only $40.
Holdover members of the Senate will
receive only SO a day since by con-
provision salaries of in
cumbent state officials cannot be
changed during the current term of
office.

three Democrats wrote Postmaster
General Summerfield recently citing
instances of poor mail service in
Montana.

Committee wrote that merely by

same thing would hold true in the

A Republican official on Capitol
Hill called to express similar senti-
ments.
The Post Office Department set
up a conference between regional
director and the publisher of daily
newspaper who told Montanans that
his daily frequently was delivered in

WHAT DO YOU THINK?
By GRETCHEN G. BILLINGS

| hear there is rumbling on street
corners about the raids on slot ma
chimes the Attorney General has been
carrying on. The rumblers say some
thing like-if people want to gamble
that is there business. They don't
give you time to mention slot ma
chimes are against the law and the
duty of the Attorney General is to
see the law is enforced.
When Montana people want gam
bling they will have to make it legal.
Attempts to do that have not sue
ceeded. 1t appears the majority don't
want it in the state, so it is up to
law enforcement agencies to see I'M
lawful gambling devices are not
used. But those who do most of the
criticizing are professional gripers
and would condemn Olsen if he did
and condemn him if he didn't.
We all know that, of course, but
it leads me to little story about
how Olsen found out about one par
nice slash of machines.
Some time back he received a let
ter in which he found list of slot
machine serial numbers. The letter
was directed to the Fed
eral Justice Department, but the
envelope was addressed to Attorney
Arnold Olsen.
The federal government requires
a report from all owners of gambling
devices. Owners must account TO"
every machine, and if they don't have
It anymore they must state where
It is.
Whatever quirk of fate caused the
owner of these machines to make

support from the "grass roots. The
top leaders of labor have shown the
way, but, unless state and local labor
councils give their aid and co-opera
ton, no matter what program may be
recommended by the AFL~CIO, they
will come to naught.
Leary said that under the merged
organization, there are now % re-
gional districts, of which % are in
the United States and the other is m
Canada. Each RECON has an AFL or
Clio man as a director, and one or
the other as assistant director. Each
region also has one or more organic
ers on its staff. Involved in the new
organization, he noted, are about $50
international unions.
Saying he was "pretty sick" over
the way Senators Murray and Mans
field let the people of the United
States and of Montana down in vot-
ing for the Harris-Fulbright gas bill,
Leary emphasized the Importance of
state and local councils carrying on
voter registration campaigns, poilti-
cal educational work, and getting out
the labor vote on election day. He
also urged Montana people to write
strong letters of protest to Murray
and Mansfield over their votes for
the gas bill.

Federation President TIMBER, in in
Producing Director Smith, expressed
enthusiasm over the re-establishment

emphasized that during the past 20
years altogether too much time and
