Scobey, Cannon challenged Aron-
son ''to state in a fortnight manner
his attitude towards enactment of a
general sales tax. Pointing out that
the Administration, through party
spokesmen and some administrative
heads has time and again sent up
"trial balloons sampling public senti-
ment" on the issue, the Lieut.. Cover
nor said an answer by the Governor
to his challenge is imperative that
the "people can decide the ISSUE. In
this connection, he stated that "we of
the Democratic party are opposed to
enactment of a general sales tax and
our candidates for the various legisla-
tive posts will most assuredly submit
their candidates. upon that basis ="
Enlarging on why the Democratic
party opposes sales tax, Cannon
said we "feel the general sales tax
is an indiscriminate levy against
poor and rich alike and does not
fairly distribute the tax load among
all groups of taxpayers on a basis
of ability to pay. The burden of
general sales tax would be absorbed
to a great extent by the lower in
come groups.
Everyone but the Big Business
party" Cannon empha-
sized, sis aware the people in the low
income groups cannot carry heavier
tax load under present circum-
Prefacing his contention the Re-
publicans favor shifting even more
of the tax burden to low income
groups, the Butte lawmaker said the
sales tax is a perennial proposal" of
that party. "They do not suggest any
set formula or percentage of tax on
retail sales. The Republican advocates
of the sales tax desire only to have
the law on the books in any
form, after which the states budget
ary problems can be easily solved by
simply boosting the rate of tax as
spending increases"

Army Engineers Release Partial
Report On Paradise Alternative

The u. S. Corps of Army Engineers
this week released a progress report
on studies the corps is currently max
ing of the proposed Knowles hydro
electric project as an alternative to
the much debated Paradise Dam site.
The report was issued by Col. Allen
F. Clark, North Pacific Division engin-
eer for the corps.
The alternative project is near
Knowles, Montana, on the Flathead
River about 2.7 miles above it's con-
fluence with the Clark Fork River
and 6.7 miles above the Paradise site.
The proposed Knowles project would
store 3,080,000 acre-feet of usable
water compared with 4,080,00O for
Paradise.
Stating that the Knowles project
has been found "entirely feasible,
Col. Clark says the corps engineer

will be included in the current review
of the report on Columbia River and
Tributaries, published as House Docu-

H5,000 Taxpayers
Had Average Income
Of SASS In 1857

The average state income taxpayer
had an income of $4,735 in 1857,
]. F. Reid, chairman of State Board
of Equalization, told THE VOICE
this week.
Of total of POI 900 returns filed,
more than IT'S, 5,000-or 871A per cent
accounted for a total income tax
collection of $5,939,620 after re-
funds. Average tax payment for the
175,00O was $33.93 per taxpayer.
For the 25,558 'non-returns" the
average income per return filed was
$1,495. This group includes part
time workers such as teen-agers,
transient labor, etc. There were 1,168
transients who earned some income
reported to the board in 1857. Also
inclded were retired people whose
total incomes were below the mini
mum tax level, and those whose in
comes were of such nature not to
be subject to state income tax.

Rail Union
Leaders Hit
'R-W' Drive

Two railroad brotherhood leaders
this week appealed to all railroad la
Dor to join the fight the rest of Mon
tana labor is making to expose and
block open shop legislation currently
being sought via the initiative route
by some business groups.
The two rail union spokesmen are
]. S. Turrell, chairman, and E. F.
English, vice chairman of the Joint
Legislative Board of Railway Organi-
cations in Montana.
Pointing out that some railroaders
are inclined to believe the union-bust-
ing petition being circulated by the
Equal Opportunity League would not
affect them. because they come under
the Federal Railway Labor Act, Tur-
rell and English say that "no belief
could be so wrong.
"If this campaign is finally sue
cessful in weakening or destroying
collective bargaining in Montana,
and in outlawing the present con-
tracts between the employers and
employees, its results will reach
into every corner of the state and
touch the economic welfare of ev-
cry resident.
"It will lower wages and buying
power, which will affect all markets,
including transportation, the rail
leaders wrote local rail union lodge
officials.
'In addition, it will lower tax
sources which are the main support
of highway and school programs.
each of these results will have its
effect upon your family and your way
of life :"

than his Montana neighbor, he also
has substantially less purchasing pow
er. The following table, compiled from
nationwide statistics developed by
u. S. Dept. of Commerce and other
government agencies, indicates how
much greater purchasing power the
average Montana citizen has to use
for food, housing, new automobiles,
ETC., as compared with the average
person in either of the Dakotas.
The people's voice., 1958-04-04

A major power consideration is the
reduction in the installed cost per
kilowatt of prime power from about
5000 per XIV for Paradise to $3.50
per XIV for the Knowles project.
In terms of comprehensive plan
ming the Paradise Dam remains the
more attractive plan, Norwood points
out. However, Knowles would be a
much better approach than the various
Buffalo Rapids proposals. Also the
Knowles and Nine Mile Prairie as a
combination plus run of the river
dams may make up more economical
package. More study is needed.
Those wishing to express their
views on the Knowles project are in
vited to submit written statements to

will need many more than the re-

of their petition. News releases from
"RTW" headquarters in Billings give
1900 signatures as the total they
are aiming for.
The people's voice., 1958-04-04

At meetings this past week labor
met with William Holloman, AFL-CIO
public relations director for the
Northwest area, who outlined cam
paigns being carried on in other
states. Washington, Idaho and Cali

titions. Washington is fighting a sec
ond concerted initiative campaign.
Two years ago Washington labor de-
feated the measure. From the expert
ence gained during that battle labor
will be better prepared for the pres
ent one. Two years ago poorly or
ganized and uninspired "right-to-
work" petition in Montana didn't
even get off the ground.
However, the Montana campaign
this year, like those in other states
is highly organized and financed and
has nationwide implications, because
of the powerful financial forces try
ing to break the back of labor through
"right-to-work" laws.
The state advisory board to the
OHlIGu SOuIlCll IlISG
action will be an advertisement set
ting out the facts on "right-to-work"
legislation for newspapers the week of
April 10.
After completing their organiza-
5ional process the advisory board will
face financing the "fight-to-the-
leath'' campaign against "right-to-
work.. The campaign will include
speakers, publicity, and ad-
to the local areas where
committees will be set-up to receive
he ball when it is delivered from the
tate level.
The petitioners for the anti-labor

would be 51,554 acres at full pool
elevation of 2,700, as compared with
66,132 acres under the much larger
Paradise project.
Presumably the Knowles proposal
will have the effect Of reviving the
Nine Mile Prairie project on the
Blackfoot River in the Upper Clark
Fork Basin to provide regulation for
run-of-the-river projects along the
Clark Fork. Sportsmen oppose Nine

EVALUATION
The Knowles project by going up
stream loses nine feet of head, but
this may be recovered by run-of-the-
river projects at or above Thompson
