lobby. Pressure on legislators that
can be exerted by the Anaconda
Montana Power spokesman and
pleaders is relatively incense
quential compared with that mus
tered by the school interests
chiefly through the Montana Ed
ucation association.
Concededly the fiscal problem of
the schools is a monumental one
and state aid through some such
formula as the present foundation
program is necessary. But there
are extremists in-the school group
who seem to ignore the fact that
the legislature also has the re-
sponsibility of making financial
provision for other functions of
state government. 1t should. be
kept in mind, of course, that the
attitude of the extremists is not
the average attitude, and this
applies equally to others demand
ing ever bigger appropriations for
whatever activities they r in
terested in.
Allied to this disregard to the
whole wide range of the state
governments function is a ten
dency by all too many persons
not to be in the least concerned
about where the additional money
is coming from. To the credit of
large corporations, they + con-
cerned about where the extra
money is coming from, for in
creased government expenditures
mean higher taxes to be assessed
from them.
1t seems that, in one way or
another, just about every inter-
est in Montana is engaged in leg
islative lobbying. The farmers and
labor have powerful and per-
sistent Hobbies. The oil industry,
insurance companies, railroads,
truckers, bankers, small loan
companies have their lobbyists. So
do the lawyers, the physicians and
the engineering professions. Loud
ly demanding are the voices of
the sportsmen. And SO on.
Lobbying is an institution in
the American legislative process,
whether it be in the national con-
gress or the state lawmaking bod
les. Within proper limits, lobby
sists serve a useful purpose, for
they bring out the pros and con-
of legislative question, enabling
the lawmakers to sift the wheat
from the chaff and thus arrive
at more tenable decisions. Lob
bying is one of the ways in which
the people, either individually or
in advocacy of their group inter
ests, exercise their constitutional
right to petition their government.
How to keep lobbying within
proper bounds is a problem the
Montana legislature has consider
ed from time to time, but with
no real Gee Registration of
lobbyists, showing whom they
represent, has been proposed, but

holy horror against lobbying ane

slated into bills which, by infer.

restraint. These bills, directly

by, never got far beyond the in
dignation stage, but they die
give their sponsors opportunity
to view with alarm.
But times have changed. At this
session of the legislature lobby
ing has acquired a responsibility
and acceptance quite in contrast
with attitudes of the past. The
change has been gradual, but this
year 1t is pronounced. Lobbyists
at this session of the Democratic
controlled assembly include Lee
c. Graybill, Great Falls, Demo-
cratic national committeeman and
twice speaker of the house, and
Left Erickson of Helena, Demo-
cratic state chairman. Both are
lawyers. Graybill reputedly rep
resents certain banking interests
and Erickson has been hired by
the state council of teamsters to
oppose truck tax legislation which
this union believes would adj
versely affect the jobs of some
of its members.
/ see no substantial reason why
National Committeeman Graybill
and State Chairman Erickson
should not represent clients in
terests before the legislature.
However, one Democratic law
maker, Representative Charles
Cervoski of Fergus county, took
to radio and the news columns to
blast Erickson for lobbying while
he is his party's state chairman.
No reference was made to Gray
bill, but perhaps this was because
the national committeeman had
not yet appeared on the scene as
a lobbyist.
If hiring lobbyists because of
their political influence is uneth-
zeal (and l don't think it is) the
Democrats are not the sole cul-
prits, for there T lobbyists here
who have firm standing among
the Republicans. One of these is
George w. O'Connor of Carbon
county, a former speaker of the
house.
The Company" lobby is ade-
quately stated, competent and
r~esourceful. Its influence is some
thing to be reckoned with, al
though in a lesser degree than
formerly. The Company" lobby
