The enormity Of the task con-

team is disclosed with the re-
lease OF the Senators 1856 ros-

For instance, the Senator's are

those pitchers only one. Dick

Only Five winners In Lot
Otherwise the Senators have
only five pitchers who won. re-

that such pitchers as Ted Aber-

The Senators brass feels that

"This measure is an effort to meet
the current emergency situation in
agriculture and also to adapt farm
credit to current needs" Senator
Murray explained.
"Modern farming requires larger
loans than heretofore. The old $1,000
and $4,000 limitations in the Farm
ers Home Administration law, for
example, are out of keeping with
present capital needs of a family
farmer.
likewise, we have long needed to
put farm loans on a system of vari-
able repaym ents. Farm income varies
tremendously from year to year, de-
pending on weather, plant and ami
NAL diseases, and prices. In bad in
come years, farmers should auto
matically be relieved of part or, if
necessary, all of their debt install
ment. In good income years, they can
pay extra amounts on the principal
of their loans"
The BINS have also Joined in a
measure to give farm borrowers from
the Farmers Home Administration d
one-year moratorium on principal
payments. This will provide immedi-
ate emergency relief until the more
basic, long-term credit reforms can
be enacted and put into effect.

the further reductions in major crol
prices scheduled for this year.
"The only hope of saving thousand
of farmers from being forced out Of
agriculture by the continued low
prices is to ease the credit situation.
The omnibus bill sponsored by the
three Montana Democrats has five
major provisions:
/. Provides financing and re-
financing credit for farmers and
farm-related small businesses in
rural areas suffering as a result of
the continuing farm depression.
2. Lowers maximum interest and
increases the maximum size of
loans under government farm cred
it programs.
3. Directs the Secretary of Agri-
culture to reactivate voluntary
debt adjustment service.
a. Authorizes use of a complete
rather than partial variable re-
payment plan" which adjusts re-
payments by borrowers to their
ability to pay from year to year.
5. Authorizes a "crash" program
to eliminate rural poverty in the
nations 500 most poverty-stricken
counties.
Senators Hubert Humphrey of
Robert S. Kerr of Okla
noma and John Sparkman of Ala
oama co-sponsored the Senate bill.
The measure provides that loans
may be made either by the Depart
ment of Agriculture or by banks.
The bank loans, when approved by
ocal credit committee, would be in
sured by the government.

Condor Disappointed e.
Aronson, Arnold,
Severely Criticized
For Leasing Delay

Refusal of Governor J. Hugo Aron-
son and Secretary of Statez Steve
Arnold to approve motion by School
Superintendent Mary M. Condor to
conduct a sale of school oil leases at
Wednesdays State Land Board meet
ing has brought forth a strong criti-
cism by Miss Condor.
81 am disappointed in the Cover
nor's and Secretary of States failure
to concur in my motion that we hold
an oil lease sale as soon as possible"
said Miss Condor. "There are 80 ap-
plications on file and [ have been
assured that once a sale is announced
there will be many more.
"The refusal of the other two
members of the board to authorize
an oil lease sale at this time when
the weather is most advantageous to
the industry is most curious" she
contended. perhaps they feel the
political climate should not be cleared
up. I hope the people will recognize
who is creating a stalemate in oil
leasing now It's certainly not the
OCdGG upeT1uC6HueHC- CHe AL
torney General - nor has it ever
been"
Under Miss Condon's motion for a
sale, other applicants would have two
weeks in which to place applications
for state leases. Then, adding in three
weeks for advertising the sale, the
actual sale, under her proposal, would
have been held sometime in July. A
July sale, because of the favorable
weather would have permitted sue
cessful bidders to get drilling opera
tions underway before winter sets
in, thus enhancing the chances of the
state receiving royalty payments on
new production from six months to
a year earlier than if a lease sale
is held sometime this fall.
Land Board records indicate that
every oil lease sale held since leas-
ing was resumed over year ago has
been on motion of either Attorney
Genreal Olsen or Miss Condor, with
seconds to each motion by one or the
other of these two Land Board mem
bers, or the late Sam w. Mitchell.

The Saturday meeting dealt with
the report that will be presented to

will be made in about two months.
The Governors Committee COM

tact with the 10 Or Is per cent of
Montana's youth who continue on to
college. She has had no experience
with the problems and needs of the
remaining IS per cent of Montana
youth who do not attend college.
Questioning whether Miss Miller's
campaign is being aided via tax dol
lars, Naugle continued: ''The tire
mendous financial backing Miss Mil
Ter IS receiving, plus the pleasant ar
rangements made for her at Mon
tana State University whereby she
was able to visit many Montana COM
munities under the guise of recruiting
talent for attendance at an already

that someone is interested in seeing
a person with little knowledge of

ment is too cozy to be viewed by
veteran Montana school men and
women with anything but suspicion.

NaugIe Proposes He and Harriet
Miller OUR Superintendent Race

''It is appalling that the people of
Montana should have a candidate for
State Superintendent Of Public In
struction thrust upon them with as
little experience Or background in
public school work as Harriet Miller
of Montana State University" G. E..
Naugle, Big Fork school administra-
tor, asserted this week.
Naugle is also a candidate for the
Republican nomination for the post
now held by Mary M. Condor.
"Miss Miller has done an excellent
job as associate dean of students at
Montana State University" Naugle
pointed out. "She should continue in
this position. Miss Miller does not
even possess teaching certificate
and her experience in the public
school classroom is limited to a few
short shifts as substitute teacher
in the Helena school system. To sug
gest her for the head of Montana's
public school system is a slap at every
qualified teacher and administrator
in the state.

Their income rose from II million
dollars in 1915 to over 81 million in
1855. Costs went up, of course, but
net income also more than doubled.
In 1915 the net income was $780,
000 Ten years later it was $780,
600.
"The stockholders profits in
creased, too. In 1916 a share of Mon
tana Power stock earned $1.14. In
1866 that same share earned 1902.
DOESN'T INCLUDE 1853
RATE INCREASE
"None of the above figures" he
emphasized, "include the amount the
company is getting from the 1858
rate increase. That money is i'm
pounded by court order and is not
included in the company's revenue
figures. If the company is allowed to
keep that money, of course, these
profit figures will be even higher.
$50, in 1868, we had a utility that
was enjoying the highest earnings in
history coming to the Public Service
Commission to plead that its rates
and its earnings are too low; and the
way they got it leads US into Won
derland where everything is upside
down, and two and two no longer
make four"
In spite of Montana Powers rec
ord profits, however, "a candidate
for Governor is telling you over
the radio that should not be
fighting the increased rates at all,
Olsen noted in referring to Mon
day night broadcast by his major
Democratic opponent.
HOW THEY DO 1T
Suggesting his listeners might like
to know just how utility rates, which
are regulated by your state govern
ment, can get so out of line," Olsen
said cit is an interesting story.
"Utility rates are set by the Mon
tana Public Service Commission,
which you may know better as the
Railroad Commission" he pointed
put. "Our law says that natural gas
supplier, or a telephone company
should be paid a fair return for the
they use to serve you. The
more property they use to give you
service, the higher your rate must |
De in return for the service.

"The answer is that |, as Gov
ernor, can do much more to- bring
down rates and keep them down,
than | can as Attorney General"
Olsen said in pointing out that Gin
the present rate suits | am not
merely the attorney for the state
and the people; in addition, am
the plaintiff, one of the parties in
the action. No matter what office
l may hold when this suit is heard
in the Supreme Court, | will be
present. Nothing could keep me
away.
Reviewing his long fight to have
rate increases granted gas and tele-
phone utilities by the Public Service
Commission nullified, and the utili-
ties unsuccessful attempts to keep
him out of rate increase controver-
sizes, Olsen told his television audi
ence that eve finally have the Mon
tana Power Company where they
must tell the Supreme Court and the
people why they should be allowed
to increase their rates thirty to fifty
per cent on top of their highest prof
its in history"
In this connection, he pointed out
that in the 80 years between 1915
and 1866 Montana Powers (gas di-
vision) revenues more than doubled.

MONTANA OIL INDUSTRY
HAS COMPARATIVELY
FEW DRY HOLES

Although the oil industry con-
siders itself lucky if one oil or gas
producing well is brought in in
every six to nine holes drilled, the
same ratio does not apply in Mon
tana oil fields.
During the four-month period,
December 1855 through March
1856, the industry hit the astound-
ingly high percentage Of better
than SIS per cent productive wells
of all holes drilled.
There were a total of $50 wells
