Taxpayers and businesses in
all brackets will have to dig
deeper to meet the spiraling bud.
get of which the states schools
will receive the largest apOrtion
nearly rs per cent of the adj
ditional SIG million.
The Democratic controlled
House and Senate passed on
more legislation than any other
assembly since 1888 in its four
day overtime session.
In their record tax year the
legislators tackled additional tax
es on practically every item pres
emily being taxed, and added a
considerable list of new taxable
items. Everything from cigar
cites to highways will cost more.
The tax on liquor was boosted
to 20 per cent. of which 3 per
cent of the gross sales will be
apportioned among the cities and
| percent among the counties.
Based on the 1856 state liquor
sales records, the Town of
Browning should receive approx.
mately S7.573.57 as its per cent
apportion, and Glacier County
should receive approximately
S4,905.22 as its share Of the l
per cent return. These figures.
however. are expected TO run
somewhat more when the fina!
1857 tabulation is completed.
One of the few tax reductions
will go into effect January Is.
1858 when l cent will be cut from
the 7.cent state gasoline tax.
Legislation was completed to
permit the state to enter into
the federal multi.million dollar
l3.year highway program under
which the state would furnish
SO dollars TO the federal govern

A program of undcrdevelop.

unemployment and underem.
ployment.
The bill l am introducing, with
The welcome support of so many
other members of the Senate,

Senator Douglas also said
This bill proposes no easy hand.
out. II holds out the prospect
of work. of new jobs. of increased
production. of expanding bust.
ness and commerce. of more
healthy community life. and
above all. a fuller utilization and
development of the nations most
precious resources. its human re.
sources"
Senator Douglas went on to
say Il would also emphasize that
such a program of government
assistance to deal with unemploy.
ment and underemployment is
not inflationary. This is because
1t calls out idle resources and
brings extra production. Thus
it does not enable persons to
bid up the prices of labor and
existing resources"
He also pointed out in his state.
ment that the needs of the low
rural areas arc no less urgent
than those of the distressed in.
dustrial areas. Many rural com.
munities in the United States
have average per capita income
of as little as one.fourth that of
the average for the country"
THE problem of underem.
ployment in rural areas has been
the subject of intensive study by
government departments and By
the Joint Economic Committee. "
He said Il believe that the
adoption Of this measure by Con.
gross and It's wise and careful
administration will bring q new
day Of hope and opportunity to
many areas and to literally mil.
lions Of our people who want
nothing more than . chance to
work and to live In sclf.rcspect

Hearings To Aid Economically
DEPRESSED Areas Of Nation

Information of interest to the
Blackfeet appeared in this weeks
news release from the office of
Representative Leroy Anderson,
wherein HI. reported that hear.
ings have started in the Senate
on the depressed areas. or on
the Area Redevelopment Bill.
This bill was known last year
as the depressed Areas Bill"
and according to information re.
ceived from the office of Senator
Murray of Montana, passed the
Senate. but the House did not
have time to act upon It.
The Montana delegation last
year had this bill amended so as
to provide for a loan and grant
program to Indians interested in
setting up their own industries,
and also to industries interested
in locating in Indian country"
Senator Murray said.
lie also said he intends to
testify In support of this lcgisla-
ton. Congressman Anderson. q
member of the House Banking
and Currency Committee. has in.
tr0duced companion legislation.
Senator Paul II. Douglas I'd. .Ill.)
in a statement made in the U. S.
Senate January % relative to the
introduction of this bill which
would establish an effective
program to alleviate conditions
Of substantial and persistent un.
employment and undcremploy.
ment in certain economically de.
pressed areas, had this to say
about the bill:
Chronic unemployment and
underempl0yment of the type
weighing upon so many Ameri.
can cities. communities and rural
sections tends to stifle the eco
nomic life of entire areas. This
undcrmines the education, health.
community institutions and liv.
ing standards of many persons.
II loses for the nation q wealth
Of added goods and services II
might otherwise enjoy. In short.
II seriously affects every branch
Of our society.
The responsibility Of the Fed.
cral government to aid these
areas Is commonly acknowledged
and Is no longer a matter OF
partisan controversy.
