Paradise Dam
Needed to Fight
Unemployment

Construction of the huge multiple
purpose Paradise Dam in Western
Montana should be given top priority
in the Congress as a means of not
only relieving the present great un-
employment but to bring about
more stable prosperous economy in
that end of the state, the convention
of Montana State AFL-CIO stated
last weekend.
Recalling that the 1857 conven-
tion had put the full weight of Mon
tana labor behind the project. the
convention found that in the year
since "the previous majority of pub
lie sentiment in favor of such a prof.
ect is continuing to mount to over
whelming proportions :"
Pointing out that "the unemplov-
ment situation in the labor force in
the State of Montana continues to
be a source of deep concern :" to
all Montanans who depend upon
maximum employment to maintain a
normal economy the convention
said 'the acknowledgements of the
resources in the state point to
the need of a federal project of the
of the proposed Paradise
Dam to place the state on a basis
comparable to other states and areas
where such development is enjoyed"
Copies Of this resolution were
ordered sent to the Montana Con-
gressional delegation.

"right-towork'' proposal to establish
the compulsory open shop shall not
become law in Montana.
That labor is not alone in this
fight to preserve the right of a major
ity to collectively bargain was amply
apparent from the many statements
of friendship and support voiced by
leaders of farm organizations, the
clergy, two elected state officials,
the states entire congressional dele
cation, among others.
In addition to the above, there
were talks on so-called "right-to-
works and its depressing effects on
the entire economy of each state

Uniform Five-Duy
Week Sought For
State Employees

Three resolutions pertaining tt
state employee working conditions
submitted by Montana State, County
& Municipal Employees Council No
9, were given approval at the AFL-
CIO convention in Livingston last
week. -
One of these seeks a uniform five
day week for all public employees.
Discussion brought out that, while
many public employees did receive
five-day week last legislative ses-
sion, there are a number who were
not included and still work six or
more days per week.
A second resolution urges permis-
sive legislation for payroll deduction
of dues to unions "whose member
ship consist exclusively of public en-
ployees". Such dues deductions, the
convention was informed, are no diff
ferent than other deductions au-
thorized by employees for "char-
ity, Embarrassing and other purposes" "
and would be convenience to both
the employee and his union.
The third SC&ME resolution asks
that state employees salaries be paid
every two weeks instead of once a
month as is presently the case. This,
the convention resolved, would ac-
crue to "the welfare and convenience
of the public employees and the busi-
nesses patronized by them would be
better served -

He pointed out that ''it would be
extremely difficult, if not impossible,
for an individual worker to negotiate
his personal wages and working con-
ditions in our present economic sys-
tenn with its heavy concentration of
economic power in large business
organizations.

through depressed wages but then
comes a long procession of innocent
victims who are hurt by the working

"On October A, 1857, mans age-old
dream of going to the stars" came
many steps nearer reality when the
Soviet Union placed its first satellite
in orbit.

SOME OF THE PROBLEMS
TO BE SOLVED
The AFT head then listed a mum
Der of the standout items which have
put American education in the 'dol-

A nationwide severe shortage
of classrooms. In Montana alone we

Fifty per cent of our teachers
in 1857 were on temporary certifi-
Gates, with one year or less Of col
lege training.
Many thousands of our children
are going to school only half days
because of classroom and teacher
shortages.
Twenty-four per cent of our high
schools do not offer physics; 27 per
cent do not offer chemistry.
Teacher pay schedules have
Jagged behind (whereas Russian
teachers are among the highest paid
people in that country.)

LATIN AMERICA AND THE U. S. PRESS

For many reasons which is pOinteSS to analyZe in
detail, what could be called the general public in the
United States is not adequately informed about the twenty
Latin American Republics, and even less about what they
represent to the rest of the world, in particular to the
United States of America.
Since in this country the authorities reflect the feel
lngS OF the people who are the source of public power
this fact, this lack of adequate information regarding Latin
America determines, directly or indirectly, the official at
titude OF the Federal Government, and down the scales in
which Public Power is divided, to the municipalities.

tion, of course, with regards to certain serious crises i'm
those regions of the world, the people in general would
show more interest for the above mentioned twenty cOun-
tries, located in the same Hemisphere as the United States,
and that interest, logically, would reflect in the Inter
American policies of this great nation.
Frequently, total blame is put, without any reserves.
on the Executive, in particular the Department of State,
for the errors and deficiencies of the Inter American
policies of the Washington Government. However, very
little, almost nothing, is said of the lack of an adequate
national atmosphere capable of determining a change in
those policies. The right to interfere that, according to
the Constitution of the Republic, the U. S. Congress has
regarding foreign policy, is much greater than the, one
enjoyed by any legislature in the Latin American coun.
tries. And If Congress SO desired, the attitude of the De-
partment of State would have been different. In general
terms, 1t can be said that the cOnductsO f the Department
Of State responds to the will of the majority in Congress-.
Nevertheless, for Congress to adopt also a different attitude,
u Is necessary that public opinion demands it.
1t is, therefore, of extraordinary Importance. not to
say an imperative need, that the press, radio and teleyisiOn.
N their news reports and comments, make an effort to
give more Importance to Latin America, stressing her
significance and the much those countries represent for
