ANA Won't Swallow Right
To-Work' Prescription for
Hospitals Closed Shop

DR.. Harold Arnold of Hawaii ap-
parently has been reading some of the
propaganda published by the Ameri-
can Medical Association about the
sinfulness of closed shops. The ANA
has been, and is, campaigning for So
called "right-to-work" laws which, of
course, forbid closed shops.
DR.. Arnold offered resolution at
the AMA's recent convention in New
York City urging organized medicine
to adopt its own "right-to-work" pol
icy. 1t said that "a great many Ameri-
can hospitals require applicants for
their staffs to belong to the ANA,
thus making the ANA an unwilling
party to the application of the closed
shop
DR.. Arnold's resolution was dis
patched to the trash basket so fast
that several of the doctors complained
of dizzy spells while they went about
their self-imposed business of worry
ing about closed shops for trade un-
ions.-COPE MEMO.

VFW Member Objects To

don't know if these parties knew
what they were talking about or not.
1 wondered on what ticket the VFW
was going to run Mr.. Mahan.
Appearing in the Carbon County
News published at Red Lodge Montana,
date Nov. 1, 1856, there is this statement
under title paid for by Hugo Aronson
For Governor Club: John Mahan, former
State Young Democrat Chairman; radio
(Olsen) has been making is purely an
attempt to get votes by misleading
statements and falseh Gods"
l believe the VFW will have quite
a job to elect person who makes that
kind of statements, to the u. S. Senate.
If I know the meaning of the English
language John Mahan says Olsen lied
in every statement he made and in
tended to.
l don't believe anyone really feels
that a person who has been before the
public as much as either Governor
Aronson or Arnold Olsen got to their
place they have reached by telling y
falsehood in every statement they make.

And now e. j. says he can't compre-

prising for from past acquaintance

er incoherent tone of his recent letter

E. J. and LOGIC were-well not eX-
actly bosom pals.
oh no, l didn't imply" or even infer
that the private utilities were bunch

course if L. J. draws the conclusion
from those facts that the aforesaid

scalawags, ets.-weu that's his privi-
lege. And the fact that he did draw
that conclusion would lead one to be-
lieve that even l.. j. is beginning to
develop a faint "glimmering" of LOGIC.
Otherwise why do we have such regu
latory commissions as the Interstate
Commerce Commission, Federal Trade
Commission, Public Service Commission,
Trust legislation and scores of
similar regulatory bodies.
AS a matter of fact I am not inter-
ested in stating whether or not there
is anything illegal, unethical or wrong
about private utilities collecting taxes.
My sole interest was, and is, in show
ing that the ultimate consumer is, in
the last LOGICAL analysis, the one who

Power-Private or Public

In the June 7th issue of The Peoples
Voice Mr.. Leverne Hamilton writes
that another argument put forth by
opponents of Public Power or Govern
ment operation is that our taxes go
to pay for these government dams. This
is distinctly fallacious. Construction
Immediate construction that isl S
taken care of by long term bonds which
are paid off from and by the revenues
from the sale of power.
[ challenge Mr.. Hamilton to cite one
single instance since the days of Frank
lin d. Roosevelt where Congress au-
thoriZed the sale of long term bonds
or any other kind of bonds to pay for
that matter. Congress appropriates
money from the U. S. Treasury but new
er specifically authorizes the issue of
bonds to cover. Our federal budget for
this year is about 72 billion dollars
for all purposes including dams and
our taxes are expected to be slightly
in excess of that. The Secretary of the
Treasury has authority to issue bonds
or other obligations not to exceed 27S
billion dollars whenever he runs out
of money, regardless of whether it be
to pay for dams, postal services, mill
tary services or foreign aid giveaway.
Receipts from the sale of power are
deposited in the U. S. Treasury but are
never credited to the account of dam
or anything else.
If Mr. Hamilton thinks he or I own
an interest in government dams or
power plants in Montana or anywhere
else. I challenge him to make me an
1ffer for my $3.50 proportionate con-
.ribution to the cost of FIT. Peck. Any
,ffer of less than $1.00 will not be con-
;idered and postage stamps Will be

Bankrupt and Do Not
Know 1t

In the Wall Street Journal of June 26,
all government bonds were quoted art
below par billions of dollars of them
below 81 cents on the dollar. Two years
ago all were at 100 cents or better.
The present quotations are deceptive.
When these bonds were bought by the
public, on the eager sales talk or
Dropa ganda of the bankers at 100, the
buying power of the dollar was, we
will say, 100 cents. Now Sen. Byrd says
it is down to As cents. So that while the
price Of the bonds is SS cents, the value
of the bonds is 48/100 of SS cents or
about 43 cents, for what the bankers
got the people to pay 100 cents.
Several times when the bankers were
putting on their drives for people to buy
U. S. bonds, this paper has published
warnings that they were not so good
inVestn ents as common stocks, in go
ing corporations which have no pre-
ferred stocks Even after a total finan-
cial crash, stockholders still own the
properties. Open Reputation by enact
ment or the same thing by depreciation
of the currency does not destroy the
property After abandonment of the
old issue and use of new kind of cur
rency,- the properties start paying oiVl-
dends again, regardless of the terrible
and pathetic sufferings incident to re-
pudiation by either method.
Sen Mansfield in a talk recently ad-
vocated a cut of SO billion in the budg-
ct. Only a cut of $40 billion now and
a budget of less than $50 billion for
10 successive years will save the present
financial structure of the u. S.
Our State Treasury has $40 million
in II. S. bonds How much are they
worth? Why were they bought?
Mines are shutting down. Fewer
houses are being built. Farm product
prices are falling. General Motors is

Rural electric leaders have grimly

run-of-the-river dams on the middle
stretch of the Snake River, they saw
no relief for the impending power
shortage. Instead, they have testified,
utility plants would only produce
half as much power, and at over
double the cost of power from a high
federal dam. At stake also, they have

which could be developed into eco

many other benefits which the pri-
vate utility's plans either ignore or

at Hells Canyon was the first major
victory rural electric leaders have
scored in six years of determined
fighting for the federal project be-

Kefauver declared, "They (IPCo.)
