lived whatever need there may
have been for them long ago. So
In 1855, model legislation known
as the Uniform Gifts to Minors
| Act" was prepared by the New
York Stock Exchange and spon-
sored by the Association of Stock
Exchange Firms. Up until now,
legislation eliminating the red
tape which previously accompan-
led giving securities to minors has
been passed by SO statess Alaska
and the District of Columbia
areas with a population of about
ITO, GOO, 900.
The new laws provide for an
outright gift Of stock to a minor
simply by registering it in the
name of an adult as custodian
for the child. The Importance of
this has been explained by Presi-
dent Keith Funston of the New
York Stock Exchange In these
words: For one thing, shareown-
ership gives our youngsters a
practical course in economics. Too
many schools are failing to teach
the basic facts about our economy
and u free enterprise system
Second, a share of stock in one
of the country's leading corpora
tons not only gives young people
a tangible stake in the nations
business but also establishes a nest
egg which may have significant
growth potential"

GOVERNMENT FALLS
IN CANADA

In an unprotected political up
set, the Conservative Party il
Canada has come into power after
% years on the outside. Prime
Minister Louis st. Laurent, of the
Liberal Party, is thereby unseateo
and his Liberal Government re-
moved from office.
The new Prime Minister is John
Diefenbaker, of the Conservative
Party, which does not hold a ma
iority of the 265 seats in the
House of Commons. Therefore,
Diefenbaker's government will
have to have the support of either
the Socialists Cooperative Com
monwealth Federation, which
holds "a seats, or the support of
at least FL members from the
Credit Party and Independents,
which are expected to number
about as many as the Socialists
CCF Party in the House of Com
mons.
The Conservatives campaigned
in Canada on the theme it was
time for a change" which won
for President Eisenhower in the
United States in 1852. A change in
Canada is expected to have no far
reaching effects on relations be-
tween this country and that, which
have been on the highest level
for many years.
However, the election is signifi-
cant in that it seems to mark the
continuance of a conservative
trend among the Western ma
tions-a trend away from Social
and Left-wing policies in
many of the democracies.

1856 Tax Total
Lower Than 1855

During the last ten years, prop
erty taxes in Montana have in
creased los percent, hitting a new
high Of over $74,000,0 900 for 1856
81. This, according to the Mon
tana Taxpayers Association, is
over 80 percent of all state and
local taxes for Montana. Other
states in the West have less re-
lance upon the property tax and
depend on other sources Of reve-
nue. to finance public services,
the main one being the sales tax.
A big bite out Of the Montana
property tax dollar Is for educa-
ton. For 1856, ass percent Of the
$74,00O,Q 900 tax bill was slated for
the public schools-if the univer-
sity millage levy Is included, the
total for education Is boosted to
53.5 percent. Twenty-seven per-

designated for counties, 6 percent
for state purposes. 1875 percent
for cities and towns and 3 percent
for miscellaneous purposes.

For Americans July Is an epec
tally historic month. Our indepen
dence is celebrated on the. Fourth
of course, and the Battle Of Cettya
burg was fought during the frs
three days of July, in 1883.
July is named for Julius Caesar
a change from its former name o.
Quintilis, changed on the order o.
Mark Antony, and was the month
in which Caesar was born
In Anglo-Saxon history the
month was called Litha sc Oefter-
ra, which meant mild. The origin
of this word is rooted in the fact
that the meadows were in bloom
and the hills green in this month
i'm the middle of the summer.
AS July, 1857, arrives, Ameri-
cans, and the people of most for
eign nations, find themselves with
much for which to be thankful.
The world is not at war and SER
ious ~depreSsions exist in few of the
major countries of the world.
Moreover, the prospect for peace
is perhaps as good as it has ever
been since the end of World War
III and the outlook for economic
progress is almost unlimited.
This is quite a contrast to some
Julys, such as that Of 1917, when
Russia was crumbling before the
armies of the Kaiser and the out
look for the Western world SEEM
ed dim. 1t is also a contrast from
July of 1910, the month after Hit
Ter had defeated France, and July
of 1941, when Hitler's armies
seemed on the verge of crushing
Russia for a second time-a Rus
STA we then considered an ally.
It is also a contrast from July,
1912, when the United States was
under the military blows
Of Japan and still on the defensive
In World War II.
Likewise, July, of 1850, was a
grim one, as the Communists were
moving forward relentlessly in
Korea, and u. S. troops were just
their desperate attempts
o save South Korea.
In this July, then, the world
has much to be thankful for.

portunity to voice opinions con-
corning public expenditures. From
June path, when school trustees
adopt preliminary budgets, to Au-
gust 18th, when all levies for city,
county and school budgets are
fixed, there are chances for the
citizen to be heard.
AS you spend-so you tax. II
Montana's high property tax bur-
den is to be controlled, spending
must be reduced the report con-
cluded.
Total taxes levied in Richland
county for 1855 were $l,S04.021.
OF this amount school taxes were
s553,495, county taxes $330,62
city taxes $175,167, state taxes
$50, 802, and miscellaneous taxes
S184,9 32. This amounts to an over
all 8 percent decrease under 1855.

FOR C

If, even a few years ago, you
had wanted to give a share of cor
poration stock to a minor, you
were faced with weighty legal
problems in virtually every state.
In many states, it was necessary
for a court to appoint the minors
own parent as a legal guardian to
sell securities given to a child. Or
else it was necessary for a par
ent to establish a trust in behalf
of the minor-a cumbersome and
sometimes costly legal procedure.
Barriers such as these, many
believed, we're wrong and had out

these lines,
WITH RESPECT TO the role that Congress can

WITH RESPECT TO the role that Congress can play,
the matter is equally serious and important. Because these
Islands can move only in the path laid out by Congress, and
in the tempo ordered by the Interior Department, through
its representative here, the Governor, we do not have the
final word as to all matters pertaining to self-government.
WHEN AN OFFICIAL of the caliber and know-how Of
George A. Abbott speaks encouragingly Of the greater role
that we can play in our affairs we naturally entertain great
hopes for much more to come in the future. Mr.. Abbott, be-
cause of his background and understanding of the local prob
lens and his position to assess Congressional sentiment, is
fully qualified to speak on sef-goverDment. He knew, too,
whereof he spoke because of what he gathered while on duty
here with a Congressional Committee.
But U HOPES must be tempered with the under
standing that progress may be slow, though sure, and that
there is much to be done on our part before we achieve our
ultimate goal hoped.
ANY REMINDER OF the need for greater s~elf-govern-
ment and the role that we can play in achieving it makes
GOOD listening. But more, it makes for provocative thought
which in turn can be productive of sound action. We shall
work even harder, and urge our friends here and on the main
land, including Mr.. Abbott, to stand with us.

THOUGHTS ON SELF-GOVERNMENT

THOUGHTS ON SELF-GOVERNMENT
ANY DISCUSSION of greater seL-government for the
Virgin Islands, especially by contnentals, awakens anew in
us the flaming desire to capitalize upon our opportunities,
and give greater thought to our responsibilities.
THERE Is NO question whatever that there ought to
be a greater degree of self-government for these Islands
There is no question whatever that it may be the intent of
Congress to offer every opportunity towards the fullest a-
complishment Of that end, and there may be no doubt that
there are many in the United States, in and out of the Gov
eminent, who feel kindly towards the idea.
TWO THOUGHTS NUS be expressed with respect
to any mention of sef-government for these Islands. First, the
necessity of our people to give a continuing devotion to great
er self-govenment to the degree where no question could
possibly be raised. Second, there is the need for Congress
and the President, through the Department of Interior, to
lend the type of assistance which would give greater impetus
to the local efforts in this direction.
FORMER ADMINISTRATOR Harry E. Taylor eu-
IDENTIFY enjoyed telling Congressional Committees and other
groups, including the newspapers, that the people of these
Islands were not yet ready for sef-government. One such
testimony before a committee could be most damaging if not
properly refuted. While, in all honesty, there was indications
of lack of maturity in certain phases of our conduct, the.
truth is that sef-government in these Islands was no less
effective than in any other territory under the same circum-
stances. - !
SELFCOVERNMENT can come only through trial and
error, and any tendency to point only to the errors as evid-
ence of lack of maturity or sophisticaton is to deal a deadly
blow to all effort in that direction, particularly when the blow
comes from those in responsible places. More work needs to
be done, and our leaders, men and women, given the respon-
sibhty of conducting our public affairs owe a special duty to
see that nothing is done to defeat our forward progress along
