Montana toward state legislatures,
but we ask ourselves if it is the fault
of the elected or the people who elect,
and if we should pervert the time
honored and democratic basic prin-
ciples of checks and balances for an
immediate and expedient end.
And if we accept this method of
circumventing the Legislature as the
peoples check on bureaucratic state
government, where will it end? The
state highway department will be able
to thumb its nose at the legislature
in respect to this large slice of in
come, because as regards gas tax rev.
enue the legislature will no longer
have any check on the purse strings,
except the elimination of the license
itself.
But after the highway department,
what will be next?
If we accept this principle of fl

Dear Mr. Dye:
There is no greater threat to our
Democratic form of government than
an apathetic attitude on the part of
the voters. Enlightened voting is more
than a privilege, it is duty and re-
sponSibihty.
Believing in these principles, Lewis
and Clark County Democratic organi-
cations have made a determined effort
to register all eligible voters in this
county. The Democratic Women's Club
deserve real commentator for their
efforts in registering over 14OO people
in their drive. The work wasn't easy
1t meant manning voting registration
booths in front of grocery stores and
business houses for ten consecutive
weekends. 1t meant being away from
home and family, donating evenings
and Saturday afternoons and holidays
in good weather and bad
Democratic precinct committeeman
and women and deputy registrars con-
tacted over 1900 families whose names
appeared in the current city directory
but whose names were not on the list
of registered voters for the precinct
in which the family lives. Through
this effort, approximately 500 voters
were registered.
rate press releases, the Womens Demo-
cratic Club advised your paper of the
work that had been done and listed the
names of those responsible, civic
minded people who had volunteered
their time to get the registration job
accomplished. The chairmen of the
Registration Committee, Mrs. Arnold
Olsen for the Womens Democratic
Club, and Mrs. Harriet Meloy for the
countrywide drive, both felt that these
people deserved public recognition. 1t
was not through happenstance that no
recognition was given because two sep
arate releases were prepared and de-
livered to your newspaper. AS chalr-
man of the Democratic County Central
Committee, I feel the refusal of the
Independent-Reco to print these re-
leases was not only unfair politically,
but it was unjust in failing to recog-
nize "a civic service. If the Independent
Record has a Letters to the Editors
column, / would like to have this let
ter published in it. If not, think some

The Big Laugh

For the last few weeks, when I read
a paper. it's the high wage the worker
is getting. The worker today is not
better off, for everything he buys is
higher than the gain in wage he has
received. Furthermore, I can not see
where the Republican Party can take
credit for some things that have helped
the worker. Or, are they trying to pull
the wool over the public's eyes. The
truth is the Union and the men that
walked the picket line on an empty
stomach made the wages. But they can
not lower the prices of commodities
they really need. Wonder what Ike-Dick
will dream up neXt.-S. j. ERICKSON,

Further this constitutional amend
ment is an exhibition of complete
mistrust in the legislative branch of
government, and to all intents and
purposes will offset the check and
balance system by in effect eliminat-

the purse-strings so far as this big
slice of revenue is concerned.
There is an unfortunate attitude in

Governor Should
Explain His Record
On Labor Measures

James S. TIMBER, president Of the
Montana State AFL-CIO, this week
called on Governor Aronson to ex-
plain his labor record during his
legislative and administrative career.
Labor wants to know where the
Governor stands in regard to i'm
provements in Workmen's Compensa-
ton, Unemployment Compensation,
Occupational Disease Compensation,
Collective Bargaining, and so-called
Right Work laws" TIMBER said.
"The workers in Montana want
to know why you have constantly raj
lied to the support of the oil indus
try, yet refused time and again to
show any sympathy or understanding
for organized labor.
Montana labor looks to you now
to explain your vote against limiting
hours of labor to eight for under
ground miners; your vote against
silicosis and other occupa-
tional disease compensate under the
Workmen's Compensation Act; and
your refusal to take a stand on the
so-called 'Right-to-Work initiative
which is intended to wreck unions"
eve are entitled to an explana-
tion," TIMBER concluded.

School Oil Leases
schools Continued)

lib 350-by Fulton-to weaken control of State
Land Board school oil land leases, set maxi
annual rental 81 90 per acre, and set by
statute sliding scale of delay drilling penalties
Passed by both legislative houses and signed into
law by Governor Aronson.
Under old law, minimum annual rental IS
cents al acre; land board had discretionary power
cancel leases after first two if lessee had
started drilling, or, in lieu of cancellation,
NIT lessee continue holding lease by payment
of non-dring penalty, amount of which was fixed
by land board.
AS originally introduced lib $50 called for TAX
ing control away from land board over entire
ten-year primary period of any lease. Popular in
land boards authority administer such leases for
sponsors, Rep Juedeman, successfully moving to
lease House roll call taken bill originally in
troduced.
Extending the period from two to six years dur
ing which time land board is without authority to
compel development work a lease not only indi-
Gates the schools may lose considerable in financial
off school leases in the added four-year
period, but also makes school leases far at
tractive for speculative purposes.
The setting of flat $1.0O (maximum) rental
per year likewise holds within itself the likelihood
the schools may eventually lose huge school
leases which within proven oil areas and which
should bring considerably higher annual rentals

method of computing truck taxes be set in Mon
put highway financing more equitable
basis. Commonly known the "Oregon law, Sub.
lib So, had it been enacted, would not only have
forced onghaul truck operators to have paid their
fair share of highway costs, but would also have
greatly reduced the gross inequties now expert
enced under Gross Vehicle Weight tax schedules by
occasional haulers, trucks operating primarily with
in incorporated towns, lumber haulers, etc. Under
truck taxing schedules of Sub. lib SO. it is esti-
mated that approximately four million dollars In
additional highway revenue would have been avail
able for matching approximately five and one-haif
million dollars in federal funds.
Those voting for Sub. lib &c. voted for the trucks
paying their equitable share of highway costs.

HOT DOG

BANNED: This term for a
frankfurter was coined by T. A.
Dorgan in 1900 because OF the
resemblance of the frankfwter
to a dogs tail. However. the
name became so popular that it
created a Juror with dog lovers
and in 1913 New York's Coney
Island banned the name. How
ever, the law did little good and
hot dog is an accepted name
today.

There is no reason why this
should not work both ways, al
though most textbooks are
strangely silent on the subject
of declarer forcing a defender.
Mr.. Masters found it necessary
to use that line Of play in today's
deal.
Against the four-spade con-
tract Mr.. Champion led the king
of hearts. Miss Brash elected to
overtake with the ace and return
q club.
Mr.. Champion squirmed slightly
in his chair at this development.
Whenever his partner makes an
out-of the ordinary play he i'm
mediately suspects it Of being an
error. In fact any deviation from
THE line of play suggested by him
is an error-until proven other
wise.
This endearing trait is one OF
the most successful methods OF
throwing partner of his game
If you are interested in accom-
plishing that. Actually Miss
BraSh's club shift was a good
shot, as it eliminated Mr.. Mas
ters' only entry to the board OUT
side of the trump suit itself.
Mr.. Masters realized he would
have to play carefully If he now
found four trumps in one oppo-
nent's hand. He won the second
trick with the jack Of clubs and
led the ace and another spade.
? He got the bad news when
Miss Brash discarded a small
heart on the second trump lead.
Winning with dummy's Jack of
spades, he now abandoned trumps
and cashed the ace of clubs. He
was careful to discard a heart
rather thall'a diamond from the
closed hand. His prime objective
was to be able to reach dummy
after trumps were out. and it
would have been disastrous to
have dummy forced with heart
leads.
When the ace of clubs held,
the king was played and the last
heart discarded while Mr.. Cham
pion rlffed. This reduced Mr..
Champions trump holding to
one. the same number held by
dummy. He returned the queen
OF, diamonds. and Mr.. Masters
won with the ace and led a low
spade to dummy's king. The club
suit then furnished enough addi-
tional tricks for game.

Dulles has indicated that he
would have no objection if Israel
bought arms from France, Eng
land, or other Western nations.
But Israel has pointed out repeat
edly to Dulles that other countries
refuse to act until the United
States shares responsibility by
selling at least some modern arms
to Israel.
French and British diplomats
feel it is "hypocritical" for the
United States to evade a decision
by seeking to pass the problem off
on other powers. The same diplo-
mats watched with amusement
when a group of Republican Con-
gressmen praised the State De-

deciding not to object if France
sold arms.
Friends of Israel were given
whispered assurances that Israel
need not worry. With a furry of

that he wished to be cautious in

The United States believes the
United Nations has a peculiar re-

that responsibility, Mr.. Dulles
stated. He expressed hope that a
pending U. N. peace move would
add appreciably to assurances of
peace. He emphasized that basic
U. S. policy in the Middle East
