A Plague On Both
Your Houses!
Dear Editor:

| Dear Editor:
Gretchen raised some good questions
about charity in her column. The only
| trouble is we dare not answer them
honestly The Republicans might get
us.
In their Resolution No. z, they bla-
family announce what we may expect
from having opinions that differ from
colorless orthodoxy. 1t is to be hoped
that saner men not so burdened with
dull axes will undo some of the rank
injustice done to John Hellman di-
rectly and to the cause of free thought
and expression Indirectly. The Demo-
Gratis discreetly keep tongue in cheek
while the Republicans deplore the SAN
ity of our higher courts in defending
civil liberty.
One would think from the party plat
forms, that foreign policy and civil
liberties were so perfect that they
need no thought or action. This shame
full and revealing silence proves the
efficacy of McCarthyism and the real
purpose of anti-communism. This cow
ardly and hypocritical silence does give
consent to the anti-social crimes com
mitted against the world by American
ignorance.
Mr.. Luckey and Mr.. Maury very we'll
stated the situation as regards China
and Formosa. There is no hope for
America from "the best minds in gov
ernment with much more information
available to them. This is fascist
ideology and lacks common sense be-
sides. We, the little people, must be
informed to make inde-
pendent decisions and then we must
act to enforce these decisions upon
our elected representatives in govern
ment. That is Democracy.
Since the Republicans deny this kind
of democracy, and the Democrats only
defeat it by their silence, the people
may have to build a party that will
give voice and action to their demands.
Of course there would be a bipartisan
attack upon such a party. Anti-com-
nunism is the foremost weapon for
his contingency. People shall have to
become informed as to socialism and
communism and its real and imagined
oerils. The greatest of all crimes is
ignorance.
The education programs of both old
PARTIES are carefully orthodox and
'ffer us no hope in learning what we
Ill need most to know. Anti-communism
las instilled fear and installed bigots
n our schools.-HOBART McKEAN,

Editorial Criticized

To the Editor,
Great Falls Tribune
Great Falls, Montana
Dear Sir:
Although it reaches me a day late
have for many years subscribed to the
Tribune and recommended it to others
because 1T is Independently owned and
Independent in policy. Now 1 am
shocked to find it editorially support
ing power monopolies in their practice
of forcing taxpayers and ratepayers
to pay not only for the monopolies' nom
political advertising but also for their
political advertising. Why should not
the owners, not the consumers and
taxpayers, pay at least for advertising
designed to influence voters and legis-
lators politically in favor of the own
erS?
The ruling of the Commissioner of
Internal Revenue that management
must charge political advertising to
the stockholders and not to consumers
and taxpayers does not limit freedom
to advertise or to publish; it does not
prevent the right of business to pre-
sent its own case; it imposes no ''pen-
atty: 1T merely says who justly should
pay the bill for the political advertis-
ing. 1t takes a stand for freedom and
justice for all. 1t specifically relieves
the taxpayer of a peculiarly repugnant
and taxpayers will continue
to pay for the power monopolies' non
political advertising which is covered
by the approved rates.
True, as a result of the ruling, the
owners of the power companies will |
probably indulge in less newspaper
advertising for political purposes be- |
cause it will be their own money not |
somebody else's. Indeed they have been |
double reimbursement; ocne |
through tax deductions and again |
through inclusion in the rate allowed. |
In the light of the ruling affording
'elief taxwise, the people may not |
ong allow utility commissions to be
lsed to make consumers pay for their
wn advertising. Indeed, the consumers
nay eventually rebel against being
orced to pay the companies lobbyists =

Montana Political Atlas In Prinf

MISSOULA - A state house re-
porter's respect for political facts
| lies behind publication by Montana
State University Press this week
of what is probably the most import
ant book of the year on the states
politics, can Atlas of Montana Poll
tics Since 1861. The author. DR..
Ellis Waldron, serves as dean of the
MSU Graduate School these days,
but his knowledge of politics at the
operating level traces to his days
as state house correspondent for one
Of the major press services (UP) in
Ohio.
The new book is the first and only
complete record of every election at
state and national level held in Mon
tana since the beginning of territorial
days. Starting with the election held
in October, 1864, the volume traces
The ups and downs of political tides
right through the primaries of 1853.
In 428 fact-filled pages, the fact
seeker will find listing of every
one of the more than 5000 candidates
who have sought office, records of
action on every constitutional amend
ment and referendum, and maps
showing the development of the
counties and the changing political
complexion of the state.
Compiling the atlas was a major
research project and the book has
taken more than two years in devel-
opment. Not the least troublesome
part of the problem was caused by
the fact that prior to 1904, Montana
1idn't print its final and official vot-
ng tabulations. AS result, Waldron
had to search through tons of manu-
script in the sub-basement of the
Capitol. Some of the documents had
,een in storage for more than SO
vears. A good share of the material
n the book is now seeing print for
he first time.
From the standpoint of anyone in
crested in politics, the unusual index
S likely to prove a highly attractive
eature. Containing the names of
nore than 5000 candidates, the index

Washington G & T Coop
Seeks Dam Permit

WASHINGTON, D. C.-(RED-
Lewis-Clark Generation and Trans
mission Co-operatives of Walla Walla,
Washington, last month asked the
Federal Power Commission for a per-
NIT to build hydro-electric dam on
the Yaak River, in Lincoln county,
Montana.
The GIT coop, spokesman for II
rural electric systems in the North
west, is proposing a dam $50 feet
high and 1,500 feet long. 1t would
generate $4,000 XIV. The project
would be located near Libby, Mont,
80 miles upstream from where the
Yaak joins the Kootenai River.
A spokesman for the Clearwater
Power Company, a Lewis Clark mem
Der, said last month that although
complete details have not been
worked out, the power from the dam
would be generated to all members.
Glenn w. Eaton, Clearwater man
ager, said power from the dam would
be co-ordinated with that of the
Bonneville power pool. J

office, on what ticket, and whether
or not he won in the primaries or
general election. Accompanying each
election report are maps showing the
changing nature of Montana's county
structure and how each party Jared
within the individual counties. AS
some indication of the quantity of
research that went into it, there are
159 such maps in the volume.
From an historical standpoint, the
dust jacket presents a chapter of the
states history that Montanans of
this day have never seen before. The
illustrations are a montage of photos
made from election documents dating
for the most part from the late 186Os.
Included is polling information from
Last Chance Gulch, Hellgate and Vir-
ginia City. There is also the imposing
signature of Thomas Francis Meagher:

Somewhat Academic
By EDMUND FREEMAN. Nilsson


Mr.. Russell Smith, one of Mis-
soula's very respected lawyers. has
been talking to western Montanans
this last week about their ignorance
of the personnel and the decisions
of the Montana Supreme Court. He
told the Kiwanis Club of Missoula,
according to the newspaper, "that a
survey made by a committee of the
Montana Bar Association, revealed
that the average voter has little in
terest in the selection of judges and
knows almost nothing about their
qualifications, despite the fact that
the decisions of the Court may very
seriously affect his life. This seems
to me to be obviously true. | do not
see, from the newspaper account,
that Mr.. Smith pointed out what |
would suppose was an obvious cause
of this Indifference and ignorance
the fact that the newspapers do little
to nothing to inform us about the
judges and their decisions.
Several days later Mr.. Smith talked
to the Rotary Club in Poison, where,
according to the newspaper, che said
that the lawyers of Montana this year
will try to arouse public interest in
the election of Supreme Court JUS
tices and the State Bar Association
has recommended new plan for the
selection of the Supreme Court of
the state. First, he said, it is planned
to create a nonpartisan judiciary |
commission. When a vacancy occurs |
on the Supreme Court, this commits
sion would submit to the governor a |
list of not fewer than three qualified |
men. The governor then would ap-
point one of these men to fill the
vacancy. and at the next general
election his name would be submitted
20 the voters as to continuation in
office"
l see that this is a complicated
situation, and l do not mean to dis
,arage the principle of appointment
instead of election of some officials.
I imagine I would think it a fine
hing if Mr.. Smith were to propose
hat teachers appoint the principals
nd presidents of our schools and
I see that it is awkward :
or Justices to argue their personal s
1erits, and even more awkward per- {
APPS for lawyer to have argued Wig !
rously in a campaign and then have
D present his case before Justice r
hose election he had opposed. !
Still, we do hear and read, over the O
alton, a great deal of criticism of n
ldges and commentary on legal |
and | do not see why we
annot have that kind of reflection
nd criticism in our Montana news
apers-both by the editors and their
readers.
If the State Bar Association would D
axe vigorous and sustained effort Ii
which I think would be successful S
to get responsible newspaper O
,rvice in Montana that gave readers a
formation and opinion and oppor- D
nifty for written self-expression, ii
len l think the peoples interest and E
oility to elect good justices N
ell as good county commissioners b
Id city commissioners and state leg O,
