Democratic Process

SB by Mackay ct al*-interim commit
tee constitutional amendment. Labeled a ''most
dangerous threat to the civil liberties of Mon
tanans", SB in language confusing to the
| non-legal mind would have given legislative
interim committees most far-reaching author
lty to pry into personal lives, private business
and all other facets of Montana life whether
or not such prying would be of any value in
preparing proposals for future legislative
consideration SB would have invalidated all
constitutional projections of the individual or
an organization insofar as legislative interim
committees are concerned would have opened
the doors to trial by press, and would have
made it possible for ambitious legislators US
ing Legislative immunity as shield to defame
the regulations of citizens on the sheerest
of gossip and hearsay. SB passed the Sem
ate 1914. In the House, Rep. McGarvey (FIat-
head) an attorney in private life, led the
fight to kill the bill, emphasizing the unlimited
arbitrary authority which "free-wheeling''
interim committees would possess under SB 7.
Because SB was constitutional amendment.
the $3.50 vote for passage fell short of the
necessary two-thirds (of 94) votes to place
it on the Governors desk. "Aye" votes were
for. passage of SB in both Senate and House.

HB 4S-by Juedeman ct ALTO appoint
Supreme Court Justices This was another
measure aimed at restricting the democratic
rights of Montana people. Called the missouri
Plan'' by its proponents the Moscow Plan
by opponents, HB 48 was a constitutional
amendment aimed at taking from the people
the right to vote for candidates running for
the State Supreme Court.
HB 48 would have placed with the Governor
the authority to appoint court justices. Mon
tana people have only recently had a taste of
how lily they can fare when control of the
court, even in part rests with the Governor.
In point are the two 1857 3-2 decisions af-
flrming the extraordinarily large natural gas
rate increase granted Montana Power Co. and
the large rate increase approved for Noun
tain States Tel & Tel, by the Public Service
Commission in 1853. On those two rate de-
clslons, it will be recalled, two Justices ap-
pointed by Gov. J. Hugo Aronson-Chief
Justice James Harrison and Associate Justice
Wesley Castles-joined one elected Justice.
A. H. Angstman, in finding the highly con-
rate increases as being reasonable
and warranted. (Justices Hugh Adair and
(. V. Bottomly, both elected, dissented from
The majority opinion.) "Aye'' votes on HB AZ

1857 Legislative Voting Record

On Thursday February Ia the bill was killed
by 4444 tie vote, with Speaker Mahoney
passing his vote. The next day, following con-
siderable protest from Democrats loyal to
their partys 1856 platform, a move was made
by Barrett to reconsider the previous days
adverse action on HB 221 On roll call
which every member of the House voting
(the only time on major issue during ses-
sion) HB 221 again lost, by margin of 48-
46 with 13 Democrats deserting their party
platform to join solid block of Republicans
in opposition aye" votes on each roll call
were for providing utility patrons greater
protection against unwarranted rate increases.
Other sponsors of HB 221 were: Helding
Karlberg, CLANCY, Holecek, Meagher.
HB 223-by Barnard-to force utilities to
provide service, within reasonable limits. Pur-
pose of HB 223 was to make it mandatory on
utilities to provide service to individuals or
communities providing the income from such
service would pay for cost of installation with
in five years. Under present Public Service
Commission rules, such service charges must
pay for cost of installation within one year.
Result is that where the one-year provso can
not be met, potential utility patrons must
either do without service pay total cost
of installation of service lines and then turn
over title to the utility without recompense
The one-year limitation keeps number of
Montana communities from receiving natural
gas service at this time A principal spokesman
against passage of HB 223 was Regan (Cas-
cade) who, in private life is an administra-
tive employee of Montana Power Co. in Great
Falls. "Aye" votes were to force utilities to
provide service, providing cost of necessary
could be amortized out over a
period of five years.

BEES MOURN KEEPER

Adams, Mass.-Throughout his
life, John Zepka had raised,
worked with and loved bees and
was known to have had " a way
with them" Zepkt died recently
and when the cortege reached the
grave, mourners found the funeral
tent swarming with bees-one the
tent ceiling and clinging to floral
sprays. They did not annoy the
mourners-most remained lmmo-
bile. This recalled the tradition,
ATelling the Bees" kept alive III
the poetry of John Greenleat
Whittier and Eugene Field. 1t held
that the bees must be told when a
member of a family dies-and the
hive draped with a shred of black
lest the bees leave their hive.

Dear Mr.. Editor" -.
I can't recall ever having writ
ten to newspaper, magazine,
radio or T.V. personality. Nor
can I recall ever having read
anything that carried the
strength, force, and insight OF the
article / read in the Reporter
magazine a few weeks ago i.
''The Iconoclast of Petal Mississip-
pi."
Many Southerners, I know,
share your feelings regarding
the race problem but few OF us
have ever come up with so
wholesome approach to the stu
alton as make them laugh at
themselves" Phase know my
hats off to you.
AS for myself, l lived in most
of the southern states by the
timed I'd finished high-school
and graduated from Mississippi
Southern College in Hattiesburg
in 1853 residence at that time
Gulfport. Since then have NOV
ed to California and have been
working in the Publications De-
partment of Northrop Aircraft
in Hawthorne, California for al
most 4 years.
Not until permanently leaving
the south did I fully appreciate
the southerner's attitude toward
outside interference and although
several times I've felt it neces-
sary to defend the southerner
I've none the less, as you SO apt
ly put it, felt that the south need
ed a good spanking.
Never have l been so proud
to display the word OF a south
erner and I've almost worn
out 2 copies of the Reporter loan
ing them to friends so felt
the least I could do is let you
know. You have strengthened
my faith in the South.
Wishing you the courage ana
success you so richly deserve.

Of communism In q political
campaign to put their Roman
Catholic faith in evidence as q
means Of helping the jury decide
how much they had been dam
aged.
Three judges said it was not.
The lawsuit grew out Of q

year in which one group of New
York politicians had been linked
with the Communist Party in
leaflets and handbills distributed
by its opponents.
Pertinent In Setting Damages
When the case got to court
the defendants Qrish) cheer
fully admitted they knew their
opponents were not Communists,
which was tantamount to q con-
fession Of libel. However, the
trial Judge had allowed the COM
plainants (also Irish) to intro
duce their church activities into
the record-not only as a means
Of showing that they had no
affiliation with the Communists,
but because their prominence
and activity in their church was
competent and pertinent" to
show the amount of damages
suffered.
1t was this latter point which
produced the legal friction on
appeal.
All judges agreed that EVIL
dence Of religious beliefs and
observances for such purposes is
irrelevant except in the "rarest
of cases." !.
The majority decided that this
was a rare case. but they were
careful to point out that their
ruling was purely nonsectarian
and would apply regardless Of
what church was involved. This
would be so. they said. since all
religious groups are known to
oppose communism.
