These problems are of major import
ance to the individuals, areas and in
terests involved. But, it is character
istic of growing economy that indi-
viduals, areas and interests do suffer
adverse affects of the progress which
is deemed to be desirable and neces-
sary to the community, the state
andIor the nation.
l find it difficult to visualize how
growth and development can take
place without someone getting hurt
unless we are talking about COM
pletely appropriated area. And even
then, some individuals or groups may
have an interest in the proposed de-
velopment site. There are many people
who consider the recent popular song,
''The Railroad Goes Through the
Middle of the House,, to be their
personal theme song for good reason.
Second, there is the failure to
distinguish between public expendi-
lures for government services of
consumption nature such as
monies spent on the development of
resources to increase their produc-
tivity and expand their ability to
support the growth of private en-
terprises.
The failure to distinguish between
the two types of public expenditures
caused President Roosevelt to suggest
in the mid-thirties that the Executive
should submit and the
Congress should consider two sepa-
rate budgets-an operational budget
and an investment budget. The sug-
gestion was criticized long and loud
as subterfuge and an attempt to fool
the people. Nothing came of it. In
enough, President Eisen-
hover came forth with the same sug-
gestion when he faced the problem
of national budget for the first
time. The same charges were hurled
and the matter was dropped.

istic, however, of industrial growth
in new areas. Much Of new industrial
development is dispersed over the
rural areas. The industrial workers
live in rural areas and small towns.
This is evidenced by recent report
from the Bureau of the Census stat
ing that, while farm population was
nearly two million under the total
one year ago, rural population Chose
living on farms or in towns under
$500 in population) had increased
from 57,985,OOO to 60,677OOO in one
year.
If Montana is to share in this
rural, non-farm growth in popula-
ton it is essential that non-agri-
cultural job opportunities be ex-
banded. Rural slums can be just as
bad, or worse, than city slums. We
can learn much from the South on
this point. That region of our ma
ton has witnessed much industrial
growth scattered throughout its
agricultural areas.

action was necessary to provide the
facilities to bring water to the place
where it was used. This resulted in the
organization of ditch companies and
water users associations.
Another characteristic of water
use in a pioneer economy was the
emphasis on keeping to minimum
the degree of governmental regu-
lation and of maintaining simple
administrative machinery. This was
possible in situation where single
purpose water use for irrigation
Z was dominant and where unregu-
lated stream flow was sufficient to
fill most demands for water.
q The pattern of water use in Mon
tana until comparatively recently,
then, has not been too complicated.
The supply of water for irrigation
has been adequate in most cases and
no other consumptive use has re-
ceived serious attention.

SHOULD THINK IN TERMS OF
INVESTMENT IN FUTURE

The dual budget would do only
what individuals and business firms
do regularly when, informally or
formally, they separate their opera
tional and investment expenditures.
1t would appear appropriate that gov
eminent, local, state and national,
should think in terms of investment
expenditures for the. future. This
would be an honest approach to the
taxpayers rather than 'fooling them.
Third, there is disagreement re-
garding the role of government in re-
source development and resultant
conflict between public and private
interests. 1t is my view that, when
private enterprise can and will de-
velop a resource project, there is no
place for government activity. 1t
seems to me that this is basic to our
free enterprise system.
There is, however, one important
stipulation. The privately developed
project should involve full develop
ment of the site. In some cases, the
private project proposed as a SUBJ
stitute for a public project is not
an equivalent development. | sug-
gest that we have passed the time
when as nation, we can afford
to use our resources partially and
wastefully.
On the other hand, when private
cannot or will not develop
a project of Importance to the growth
and welfare of the nation, govern
ment has a definite responsibility. 1
have placed myself on record in nu-
merous speeches and professional
papers as believing that the federal
government has a responsibility in the
field of natural resource development
akin to its responsibility for national
defense. History indicates that many
nations of the past disappeared be-
cause the resource base was not
developed and maintained.
In most cases, it appears to have been
the water resource which deterior-
ated.
Fourth, there is the philosophy that
and and water resources can be used
md managed as the owner sees fit
md that what we do with resources
We control is of no concern to others.
This is not true, of course, because
society does place certain. restrictions
md limitations on the property rights
which it establishes and guarantees.
The federal Constitution provides that
can be taken for public pur-
POSES, with compensation.

ARE WE WILLING TO GIVE
UP STATUS QUO"?
Just how sincere are we Montanans
when we say we are interested in in
dustrial growth? What are we ready
and willing to do to develop our re-
sources and provide the basis for eco
nomic development in the broadcast
sense? To what extent are we willing
to give up the "status quo'' in par
ticlar areas and assume certain costs,
both private and public, in order to
achieve broader benefits. These are
the pains of economic growth.
The continuing search by industries
of all sizes and types for possible sites
with adequate water supplies suggests
that Montana's water resources will
become increasingly attractive. 1t
seems probable that we can expect
some industrial growth even if we
make no effort to advertise our re-
sources and let industrialists know
they are welcome in Montana.
The most important single resource
in the whole picture of economic
growth in Montana is our water re-
source. I am doubtful, however, if
we can expect much economic growth
if we take a negative attitude re-
garding some of the major water re-
source projects in our State. The
competition for new industry is keen
among all the states and it takes more
than sunshine and good fishing to at
tract an industry although sunshine
and good fishing may be included in
their calculations. Basically, there
must be competitive advantages which
can be translated into dollar and cent
Our advantages would
appear to be in large, undeveloped
water power resources and adequate
water supplies for both consumptive
and non-consumptive uses in the in
dustrial processes.
How open-minded are we regard
ing the problems of economic
growth? Recently, a Chamber of
my staff for assistance on several
occasions regarding industrial de-
velopment in that community, is
sued a public statement opposing
a water resource project in an
other part of the State. This, of
course, they had a perfect right to
do but l am reasonably certain that
they did not know enough about
the project in question to take any
sort of position regarding it.
At the same time, gentleman de-
cribed by the press as "a leading
citizen of Montana" told us that the

NEED TO BE REALISTIC

I feel somewhat the same way but
l think we need to be realistic. The
growing pressures on recreational re-
sources in the populous areas of the
nation and easy and fast transporta-
ton suggest to me that increasing
numbers of people will be coming to
Montana to spend their vacation time.
Many of them might just as we'll be
citizens of Montana if we can provide
economic opportunities for them.
l have participated in number of
national conferences on water prob
lens during the past few years. The
most consistent report from all sec
tions of the nation relates to the
search by industry for adequate water
resources to- supply the new plants
which will inevitably accompany the
projected growth in population. Many
of the old industrial areas have
reached the limit of the available
water supply. New plants are being
located in areas formerly devoted
entirely to agriculture.
There are other Montana citizens
who are not enthusiastic about indus
trial growth because, to them, it is
synonymous with crowded popula-
tions, smoke and dirt, and slum condi-
tions. These things are not character

NEW DEMANDS FOR WATER

Montana is developing more rapidly
now in other phases of her economy
in addition to agriculture than at any
time in the past. New demands for
water are appearing and the existing
uses are expanding with respect to
the volume of water required. Some
of these uses are competitive and
some are complimentary to agricul-
tural uses and to each other. The
water problems in Montana are los
ing the simplicity of the pioneer stu
alton and becoming increasingly COM
pick. Much of present and future pol
icy with respect to water involves
multiple use of water achieved
through multiple-purpose projects.
Some of the non-agricultural uses
of water such as hydro-electric power
generation and recreation have ex-
listed for many years as important
phases of irrigation projects. In most
cases, however, they were Incidental
or accidental and not the result of
planning for the best use of the avail
able water resources.

per capita requirements.
Nationwide, the increase in per
capita water requirements is result
of using more water in our homes
and of the tremendous quantities of
water necessary for the expansion of
our industrial economy. While it is
estimated that the nations population
will increase by about one-third by
1875, it is estimated that the total
water requirements of the nation will
double in the same period.
There exists in Montana a long
standing interest in expanding the in
dustrial development of the state.
Not everyone, however, is enthusiastic
about this possibility. Some individ-
uals and groups would like to see Mon
tana continue at its present stage of
economic development. They like our
wide open spaces and they don't want
numbers of people to crowd
our highways, fishing streams, hunt
ing areas and picnic spots.
