More Support For MSU
Against Legion Charges

Hon. j. Hugo Aronson, Chairman
Montana State Board of Education
Helena, Montana
Dear Governor AronSon:
We have read with interest of charges
made by the Montana Department of
the American Legion deploring the re-
cent presence of certain persons on the
campus of our alma mater, Montana
State University We note that the
State Board of Education took these
charges under advisement.
The three men in question, DR.. Harold
Urey, Dr. Edward u. Condor and Alan
Barth, are nationally known and hon
ored for their eminence in their re-
spective fields. They have also been
known personally, for a number of
years. by some of the 800 or more MEM
bers of the Washington chapter of the
MSU Alumni Association.
We believe the University was lucky
to get such good speakers. Certainly
State Board of Education should en-
courage utilization of articulate and
the University should continue and the
opinionated speakers who stimulate the
thinking of students, faculty and other
citizens of the state.
We're proud of our University. We
believe You are too.
Stick up for it, and for the good job
the citizens of Montana. Sincerely yours.

POOLE, Vice President; MRS. ROSE
MARIE BROWNING, Secretary; MISS
JOAN HARRINGTON, Treasurer.

Maximum Hypocrisy

An oft REPEATED slogan In early Amer
lea was, Trust in God, but keep your
powder dry. This had salty meaning
in the days of the powder horn and the
muzzle loading flint-lock rifle, the
match lock and the old bell-muzzled
blunder- buss. But in my untutored
mind [ felt always that in that handy.
catchy slogan the second clause seemed
to cancel out the first. That peculiar
emphasis on the necessity for dry
powder reflected "a fundamental dis
TRUST of the celestrial powers.
Slow time moves on. The powder
norm and the muzzle-loaders now sleep
in our museums but the first clause
of that half forgotten slogan is still
stamped on our standard coins and has
a permanent home as "a national motto
1t is sung in our songs and forms
window dressing in our political
speeches Though our ammunition now
is waterproof, that second clause re-
phrased is still strong with us.
The philosophy of that old slogan
haunts our foreign policy. They pub
llcly mouth the phrase, I'm God we
trust, and with the same breath warn
our people THAT our natioal security
and our national existence depends on
our having the greatest stockpile of
hydrogen bombs and intercontinental
missiles on earth, and on our ability to
land them at any point on the face of
this planet.
Consistency is jewel such men have
not yet discovered and the lack of it
constitutes the maximum hypocrisy.
Whoever subscribes to this double
barreled contradiction has little trust
in either God or man.. H. RIDDEN

Questions Why MSU Short
On Maintenance Funds
The Peoples Voice,

lne Peoples Voice,
| am enclosing recent copy of the
"Kaimin" containing an article that
each student pay a special assessment
you may find of some interest.
The debatable question of making
of one dollar to offset the cost of
grounds maintenance is not the real
meat in this article. That can be found
in the fourth paragraph.
(Student body president Roger Baty
said, according to KAIMIN, Feb. 26:
''he had been informed that the Uni
VerSity maintenance department has no
funds for grounds maintenance for the
remainder of this fiscal year, ending
June 30."-EDITOR).
Why, after eight months of the fiscal
year, have the funds for grounds main
tenance been consumed especially at
the end of a winter so mild that snow
removal expense has been practically
On-eXiStent?
Were insufficientfunds budgeted for
this cost? Hasn't the University been
in existence long enough to establish
reasonably firm figures for grounds
maintenance? Did the Legislature cut
the appropriation requested in the
budget for this purpose?
Is the Maintenance Department under
the new administrator operating so in
efficiently that funds appropriated for
a years operation are used in eight
HloHunSI Are 1undS Dudgeted for
grounds maintenance being arbitrarily
used for other purposes?
|, of course, realize that my questions
deal with one of the smaller problems
on the State University Campus. How
ever they are a good representative
example of the overall existing condi-
tions at the University. There are many
unoccupied rooms in the residence hall
on the State University campus while
most of the natiOntS schools re crowd
ed with students.-NAME WITHHELD,

What's Behind Re-opening
OF Hellman Case?

| EQltOr
| Peoples Voice
In April 1856, my husband, John
Hellman, was arrested under the mem
bership section of the Smith Act AS
the Supreme Court had agreed to hear
appeals in cases that challenged the
constitutionality of this statute which
Furnishes for mere membership, Judge
Murray postponed the Hellman case
until the Supreme Court ruled 1t still
has not ruled on this question: though
II handed down other far reaching de-
cisionS.
In the past nine months over so
Smith Act defendants have had their
cases completely dismissed An addi-
tional number have had previous con-
V1ctionS reversed. No one has been
ordered ito prison under the Smith Act
for over three years.
Why then does the Administration
wish to reopen my husbands case?
Perhaps they feel that his case being
front page headline news in the Mon
tana papers will take the peoples
minds away from their very serious
economic problems. Or perhaps they
feel it cam help their dwindling chances
in the Montana elections this year
Why would they ask for dismissal of
cases in other parts of the country,
and here in Montana push to bring
John to trial?
JOnH, a native OF montana, has never
been respectable in the eyes, of the
Company. He wanted the company
TO assume its responsibility to the suf-
ferers of Silicosis. While with the Pro-
gressive Party in 195152 he promoted
Montana's first silicosis initiative Rec
oginzing the Company control of poll
tics in Silver Bow County, he wanted
every citizen to vote. So he became a
Notary Public and registered over 700
voters in Butte in 1856. He would have
registered hundreds more if Governor
Aronson had not revoked his notary
commission. A week after this occurred |
he was arrested. To tread on the feet
of the controlling corporations is to be |
most "un-American".
1t would be foolish for me to say that |
I'm not concerned about my husbands |
future, or about my own and our chill |
drens future. But actually the plight |
of the Hellman family is a small matter |
when 1t comes to preserving and re- |
gaining the democratic freedoms of all |
not just those with unortho-
dox political ideas-for freedom is in
divisible. Sincerely-MILLY HELLMAN, |
Butte.

How can a farm afford
the special services it needs?

Farming like any other industry -.
needs the efficiencies and economies of
specialized departments.
The farm business needs a sales de-
partment and purchasing department
s. someone to counsel on insurance
and credit . and many more depart
ments to work out important problems.
If it weren't for cooperatives, most
farmers couldn't afford these special
lied services. Purchasing cooperatives
supply materials and products of high
est quality at lowest possible cost. Mar
keting cooperatives help improve the
quality of produce and sell it at the
most favorable prices. Mutual insur-
ance companies provide protection at
lowest cost. Credit associations lend
money for farm operations.
These cooperatives make farming
more business-like and more profitable.

The request is expected to be

ct. Largest single item in the
proposal will be a 1912 million

The first budget hearing Is
scheduled for 10 am. Friday
in the county courthouse in
Upper Marlboro. The second
and final hearing win be at the
same hour March 81 in the

County officials say most Of
the increased budget can be
traced to requests for higher
salaries. They say the budget
does not provide for improved
services but merely funds to
spread present services through
out the continually growing
population. now estimated at
$4,000.
