60-Yeur ITU Emblem
Presented {. ]. Upton
By Helena Printers

Charles J. Upton, member of Hell
ena Printers Local 95 since December
6, 1896, was awarded Cougar ITU
membership emblem at the unions
meeting Wednesday evening. Presen-
tation of the award was made by
local president Ben Melugin.
Charley, a member of the local for
over two-thirds of the 90 years the
states oldest union has been in exist
ence, served his apprenticeship here
in Helena prior to his initiation into
the union in 1896. His initiation fee,
incidentally, was paid to the late John
Baker, 70-year member of the ITU,
who passed away about year ago.
During his years in Local 95, Char
ley served in various posts of respon-
sibility, including membership on the
executive board at the turn of the
century, service on the scale commit
tee at various times, and a long
stretch of tim as Local 95 delegate to
Helena Trades & Labor Council.
A spry 81 years old, this printer
who has seen daily and weekly news
papers of varying shades of opinion
come and go many times since he
first apprenticed out in 1890, is still
working at the trade as proofreader

INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL
FACILITIES INADEQUATE

Tn Montana State Industrial
School at Miles City, which now has
about 165 boys, is type of training
school. It's security lies mainly in
supervision and is an open institution.
Three-fourths of the schools popu-
lation is of the type that can be han
died fairly well. The problem arises
with the remaining one-fourth. The
superintendent, Casper Wolhowe, in
forms me that an average of 80 boys
during the past seven years would
have been much better off in an
interstate institution. This would be
a medium security reformatory. The

| asked the heads Of some Montana
institutions to give me their views
plus certain figures and information
on the types of institutional cases
which might be best suited to inter
state institutions. This is definitely
not the final word on Montana's plans.
1t merely opens the door and starts
the ball rolling toward what we hope
will eventually result in a solution.
We believe this solution should re-
suit in better treatment and care for
these cases. Savings to the taxpayers
should also come. 1t is a solution we
must find or the states will fail to
meet their responsibilities in this i'm
portant field. l definitely prefer this
approach to abdication to the federal
government.

POINTS TO HIGHWAY
CONSTRUCTION LAG

eve believe also the Legislature
should give consideration to such
items as the present lag in highway
construction throughout Montana"
the LSW leader continued. "The
present mild winter has been highly
favorable for highway and other con-
struction, yet in the face of unem-
ployment increasing by leaps and
bounds, there has been little or no
such construction.
eve understand Montana allocated
less than one-third of it's share of
1857 interstate highway funds that
would have required very small
percentage of matching by state
funds. q
eff legislative action is required
to put these funds to work or to make
further construction possible at an

The power company brief relied
heavily on supreme court decisions
handed down early in 1857 on the
telephone company and gas company
cases. They said:
''Mr. Frank Woy's (MPCo. rate ex-
pert) method was upheld by the SUI
preme court and the commission in
the sgas case". "Mr. Woy's method"
determines rates by giving consider
able weight to what it would cost
the company to reproduce it's plant
at the time the application is made
for the increase. Their brief pointed
out reproduction cost new "may not
only be considered by the commission
(according to the supreme court de-
cision) in determining rates . but
it is an important factor if not the
dominating factor to be considered.
They said the commission may also
consider original cost, original cost

this item alone to be sufficient
cause for a special session"
He also pointed out that, although
such counties as Silver Bow and Flat
head have had their jobless situations
widely publicised, there are other
counties, such as Lake, which may
have even more serious unemploy-
ment problems because lumber and
related industries have been almost
totally shutdown since September"
Emergency appropriations to the
State and County Welfare Boards
for use in areas of acute unemploy-
ment, coupled with a concrete plan
for distribution of surplus commodi-
ties and other aid to needy, merit
legislative consideration; not only for
the present emergency but for future
similar emergencies.

ANDERSON returned from Trip IHdJ
included inspection of prisons in
other states, and the accumulation of
good sun tan.
Murray's resolution was presented
about week before Acting Governor
Paul Cannon started the wheels in
motion to assure the surplus food
program in the state, but was delayed
at the request of Aronson until a
full board was present. On Friday,
Feb. %, the full board met and ap-
proved Murray's resolution.
On Monday the board met with Ed
Delaney from the sub-area office of
the U. S. Department of Agriculture
in Salt Lake City, who told them he
was here to talk with the agencies
that will be responsible for distribu-
ton and accountability. Following his
short meeting with the board he
started on his job.
Delaney told Murray and Ander-
son Cannon, Acting Governor, was
in Butte attending a funeral and
Aronson in Washington, D. CO. it
would take from 3O-4O days to get the
food here. He said food professors
have to be notified of the amounts
that will be needed and the food has
to be packaged for distribution. De-
Laney thought it might be possible
to divert cars that are already on
their way now, into this area.
Attorney General Anderson said he
was interested in seeing that anyone
in need of food will get it, and Frank
Murray said the local welfare offices
must be included in any counting of
noses because they have more current
figures on those in need than the
State Department of Public Welfare
is apt to have.
A telegram from the congressional
delegation in Washington, D. c., to
Secretary of Agriculture Benson said
they were pleased that the State
of Montana has decided to partici-
pate" in the surplus food program and
that they would "deeply appreciate
the fastest possible action by officials
in your department in arranging for
prompt delivery of available food
stuffs to our state''
