likes Quickie Farm Pucifier' Only
A Sedutive, Says Leroy Anderson

GREAT FALS-Montana's econom.
ic destiny is closely hitched to action
which the present session of Congress
may take on national farm pro-
gram, declared State Sen. Leroy An
derson, Democratic candidate for
Congress, here Wednesday during a
conference with state farm repre-
sentatives. Calling the proposed Ell
senhower farm program a "quickie
farm pacifier," the Conrad man indi-
Gated "no hastily cooked-up political
year plan can hope to cope with the
highly complex long range problems
Of American agriculture"
'The Republican farm program is
little more than a move to bolster
the political fortunes of those COP
congressman who have betrayed
their rural constituents" he said.
''This farm pacifier' package deal
is only sedative, like pill, which
will wear off as quickly as the
election is held" Anderson de-
clared.

''In view of the financial crisis fac
ing family-type agriculture, segments
of which are now bankrupt, we are
astounded that President Eisenhower
absolutely refuses to bulge from his
boom and bust theory of flexible
farm support prices" the board of
directors of the Montana Farmers
Union, meeting Monday in Great
Falls, stated in response to President
Eisenhower's farm message to Con-
gress.
owe feel the sliding scale now en-
dured for two years is largely re-
sponsible for the worsening financial
condition of the family farmer.
"The Presidents promise to step
up the present pork purchase program
is discouraging. Hog prices to pro-
ducers have been declining while the
processed pork has been taken off
the hands of the packers at govern
ment expense. Stepping up the pur-
chase program will only further sub
sidlze an already profitable industry.

corn would threaten breakdown Of
supports on feed grains which eventu-
ally would also demoralize wheat sup
ports.

to protect the family farm operator

average crop years with still falling
prices, or years when production is
continuously cut by weather or crop
disease. Then can come the time when
that vast segment of the nations
economy, the American farmer, no
longer can as in the past several
years buy the machinery, the tools,
the production Of mills, mines, fac
tories and refineries. Then can fol-
low financial chaos once more, along
with reduction of food which Ameri-
cas- mounting millions must have or
starve.
"These are the long range reasons
why it is so vitality important that we
look into the future, and make good
plans for long-range workable farm
program. That is why we can not ac-
cept the Eisenhower presentation of
a 'quicllie farm pacifier'."

H. N. Wheat, chairman of the Mon
tana Insurance Advisory Council, this
week stated that ''unless the Montana
Insurance Commissioner makes use
of the statutory authority reposed in
him to suspend the licenses of com
panies which have been forced into
bankruptcy, we can expect congress
sional investigation and possibly fed
eral legislation"
Wheat said the states heretofore
exclusive regulation of insurance com
panies is threatened from the federal
level at this time. He said that unless
the forty-eight State Insurance Com
missioners act within the spheres of
their authority it is inevitable the
federal Congress will take action.
Wheat's statement was as chair
man of the Montana Insurance Ad-
visory Council, composed of eight
statewide insurance organizations,
which met with Clyde Gummow, Dep
uty Montana Insurance Commission
er Monday. The Council had scheduled
a meeting with Insurance Commits
sioner Holmes to inquire why he had
not taken action to revoke or sus-
pend the Montana licenses of three
out-of-state insurance companies
which have been placed in receiver
ship in their home states.
"The insurance business is similar
to the banking business and the prac-
tice of medicine and law" Wheat |
said. ''The public has right to know
the meaning and purpose of the intri-
cate financial and underwriting trans
actions of insurance companies doing |
business in Montana. When companies
licensed in Montana are forced into
receivership, we in Montana are en-
titled to know the facts and we
expect the Montana Insurance Com
missioner to uncover those facts for
The Montana public"
Three insurance companies licensed
n Montana, Louisville Fire & Marine
Insurance Company, Central Stand
ard Insurance Company, and Inland
Empire Insurance Company, have re-
Gently been involved in receivership
Central Standards an /:
lual statement for 1854 showed an I
loss of more than $780, t

According to information revealed $
t Mondays meeting, none of the c
hree companies listed had previously
ad their books examined by the State c
insurance Commissioners office, nor S
ave their Montana licenses been re- /
oked, even though all three are in e
olved in receivership proceedings. \
In reply to this, Insurance Com L
Missioner John J. Holmes states that
e suspended Inland's license to do I
usiness in Montana, September 10,
955 (see adjoining article). Insur- n
nc men contest this, contending that p

discussion and for the purposes Of
this discussion, this model here, Ga
small model of factory which Oh
sen displayed) represents the entire
plant of the gas division of The Mon
tana Power Company. The entire
plant pipes underground all of the
investment in the gas division of The
Montana Power Company.
"Now, rates are made determining
first the amount of the investment of
the public utility and the rate of re-
turn on that investment. We are told
that the Railroad and Public Service
Commission fixed the rate of return
for The Montana Power Company on
its natural gas division at six per
cent. We didn't argue much about
that rate of return. We have brought
into discussion the amount of the
contended investment. The Montana
Power Company in the year 1862,
through its officials, told the State
Board of Equalization, the taxing
board of the State of Montana, that
the entire plant and investment in
the gas division of The Montana Pow
er Company was worth $16,000,000
for tax purposes. Now they told us
that this particular plant and equip
ment was dedicated, half of it to
the service of the general public and
half of it to the Anaconda Copper
Mining Company.
POWER COMPANY HAS THREE
SETS OF VALUATION
''In the year 1852 they advised
their stockholders that the entire
plant of the gas division was worth
$30,000,000 and the same officials
in the same year advised the Board
of Equalization that the plant was
worth $16,OoO,OOO for tax pur-
poses, and the stockholders that
the plant was worth $30,000,000 in
the stockholders report. They ad-
vised the Railroad and Public-Serv-
ice Commission that the one-half
of the plant dedicated to the gen.
eral public users was worth $780,

White Russian Artist
TO Settle in Rockville

Temporarily she can be reached

become an American citizen. She
has already taken out her first

turn to Europe to exhibit land

This ambition grew out of the
fact that she could never find any
scenes of American life in her
search through all of the Amer

viewed.
Mrs. Golenko, who looks like a

her striking red hair and air of

In this issue I would like to ex-
tend to my readers a little closing
thought. What impresses me very
much at Easter time is the legend
of the dogwood tree, which grows
so beautiful in our state. l would
like to pass this thought on to
you.
AT the time of the Crucifixion,
the dogwood had the size of the
oak and other forest trees. So
firm and strong was the tree
that it was chosen as the timber
for the cross.
To be used thus for such a cruel
purpose greatly distressed the
tree, and Jesus, nailed upon it,
sensed this and in His gentle pity
for all sorrow and suffering said
to it: Because of your regret and
pity for my suffering, never
again shall the dogwood tree grow
large enough to be used as a cross.
"Henceforth it shall be slender
and bent and twisted and its bios
SONS shall be in the form of a
cross-two long and two short
petals. In the center of the outer
edge of each petal there will be
nail prints, brown with rust, and
stained with red, and the center of
the flower will be a crown of
thorns."
Easter is a many splendored
season, so 1, as your reporter,
wish to say, that on behalf of this
very wonderful community and
the splendid folk for which I
write, very joyous Easter.
