"ANTI-DIVERSION' AMENDMENT
One constitutional amendment will
be voted on by the electorate. This
IS the one popularity known as the
"anti-diversion" of highway funds
amendment. Outstanding highway de-
bentures will all be paid off in 1858.
Without provision being made in the
constitution for preventing diversion
of such special taxes and fees col
lected from highway users to finance
the road program, such revenues
would go into the state general fund
to be appropriated out by each legis-
lative session.
Highway boosters fear that unless
the anti-diversion amendment is put
on the books substantial amounts of
money will be diverted
to meet financing needs of other
branches of state government. They

Young Voters Want
A Governor Who
Will Inspire Them

Left Erickson, chairman Of the
Democratic State Central Committee,
at a Young Democratic meeting in
Helena Wednesday night labeled
Hugo Aronson as Montana's "do
nothing" governor.
In his talk Judge Erickson said,
"The best the governors apologists
say of him is that he has not done
anything and therefore has not hurt
anyone. 1t may be true that he has
hurt no one, but that, in my opinion,
is not sufficient to inspire Montana's
young voters to accept his leader

"The biggest business in Montana
is its state government. 1t is hard

A press service report, In connec-
ton with Senator James E. Murray
opening a field office in Lewistown,
which stated the Senator plans "no
active part" in this years campaign,
brought sharp retort this week from
the senator's executive secretary, Vic
Reinemer.
Reinemer, in taking exception to
the report, stated that he had "made
no such statement" in giving the re-
lease to the press services. To the
contrary, Reinemer told THE VOICE,
Senator Murray "most certainly will
campaign on behalf of the Democratic
nominees in Montana and elsewhere.
In opening the Lewistown field
office, the executive secretary said
that the purpose of the office is to
"follow through with various Mon
tana projects and problems the sena-
tor has been contacted about through
out the year,, during the next couple
of months.
Among work projects of the field
office, Reinemer mentioned checking
into the grain storage program (see
story elsewhere in this VOICE), fed
eral aid to schools, and Montana prof.
ects coming under the enlarged fed
eral highway program.
He said that the office will also
give its assistance to individuals who

"have cases against the federal gov
eminent"
Reinemer said the senator decided
to establish the field office because
cit is easier to help on local problems
with federal implications when you
are in Montana"
The senator's aide is being assisted
in the office by Joan Harrington of
Butte, one of Murray's secretaries.
The senator himself plans to return
to Montana toward the end of the
month to make several speeches in
behalf of the Democratic presidential,
congressional and state candidates.
Montana's junior senator, Mike
Mansfield, also plans to send one or
two of his assistants to Montana in
a similar capacity, Reinemer reports.
Reinemer, who was raised in the
Circle area, is a graduate of Montana
State University School of Journal
ism. Before joining Murray's staff
he was an editorial writer for the
Charlotte IN. C. daily News. 1t was
while with the News he gained nation
wide recognition when he was award
ed the top Haywood Broun award for
excellence in editorial writing. His
wife is the former Lois Grindy of
Lewistown and Roy. They have three
sons, Eric, Michael and Steve.

I reported the legislative history of
the Yellowtail Dam controversy. I
told how a payment of five million
dollars to the Grow Indians for dam
site and adjacent lands and right-of-
way was recommended by an impair

Hardin and Billings Chambers of
Commerce, the Governor and the At

But it was vetoed by the President.
Unfortunately, he took the advice Of
my opponent, who at first supported
the five million dollar payment but

this payment would be an unrealistic

For Mrs. C M F of Airing
ton who wanted Quiet,
pleased" The place you are
seeking is any village in Italy.
The smaller the village, the
less modern conveniences will
you find.
In the village where I
lived, a house of stone built
along the lines of a fort and
worth $4,000 here, cost only
500. Such a three-room house
rented for ninety cents a
month. Prices have increased
since then but recently my
mother sold her house for
5000. Using this as a gauge,
prices therefore have only
doubled since I was there.
There is only one automobile
in the whole village. There are
no airf1elds nearby and you will
seldom see a plane unless it
has lost it's course.
The view is superb and there
is a delicate fragrance that
comes from the mountains.
Even the simplest food tastes
delicious. Every kind of fruit
grows in profusion. Only about
20 families, out of about 500,
own radios. OF these less than
ten are in use.

will be of help.
