Radio Belgrade told Yugo-

used by Mr.. Khrushchev would
indicate that the tension be-
tween YugoSlavia and the So
Wet bloc is reaching a new
pitch. 1t can be expected that
Marshal Tito will hit back.
Striking directly at Marshal
Tito, Mr.. KhruShchev said:
II do not want to offend
anyone, but I cannot help ask
ing the question which is wor-
ryir1g all honest Communists
everywhere:
Free Loans, Easy SOps
why are the imperialist
bosses, who are anxious to wipe
the Socialist (Communist)
states of the face of the earth
and put down the Communist
movement, at the same time
financing one of the Socialist
countries, giving her easy loans
and free sops?
mo one will ever believe
that there are two kinds of
socialism communism in the
world-one which world reac-
ton furiously hates and the
other which is agreeable to
imperialistS and to which they
are, giving their help and sup

THE burden of the past

said. And they turned out to

of sale and other devices"
Work of the Public Service Com
mission in public utility cases has
greatly increased, the letter said.
1t noted that requests for higher rates
were filed by all of the states three
large utilities last year and numerous
cases were processed for small utili-
ties and the water departments of
cities and towns. An even heavier
schedule of rate cases is expected
| this year.
"These major rate cases are highly
complex, and they require lengthy
investigation and study. Millions of
dollars are involved in their outcome
and improper decisions would result
in either the ratepayers paying the
burden of excess rates or the utility
being deprived of the necessary funds
for growth and expansion.
"At present. the Commission has
but two. trained staff members to
assist it in these cases, and the major
portion of their time must be devoted
to other work involving railroads and
motor carriers. We feel the Commits
sion needs a larger staff and the
means with which to secure expert
assistance or testimony if these cases
are to receive the scrutiny and i'm
portance they deserve. Other states
of our region have recognized and
corrected this problem"
Tho 1aftoys nOtaJ tbat ,oooc+ Of +ba
laws regarding supervision of rail
roads were enacted many years ago
and ''most of them should now be
re-examined."
appropriate legislation is needed
to redefine the extent of regulation
over railroads under today's circum-
Stances" the commissioners declared.
The Commission conducted 80 pub
lie hearings throughout the state last
year. 1t collected $323,417 in motor
carrier fees.
The Public Service Commission
secretary, c. ]. Hanson and your
Reporter agree that air foam
cushions should be provided for Com |
personnel and reporters who |
sit throughout hours upon hours of
hearings. However, your VOICE re-

New Legislation, More Money

Reports to Governor Says

The Montana Railroad and Pub.
lie Service Commission marked half
century of regulatory work Monday
when it submitted it's 50th annual
report on the agency's supervision of
railroads, commercial truckers and
public utilities to Gov. Aronson.
Serious problems" caused by out
moded laws and an undermanned
staff were outlined in a special letter
signed by Commissioners Paul T.
Smith. Austin B. Middleton and Dry
J. Armstrong.
New legislation is needed, they
said, to cope with current problems
in all three phases of the agency's
work. They requested greater power
to prosecute trucking violators, the
means to hire experts for utility rate
cases. and a redefinition of railroad
regulation.
"Many motor carriers who use
Montana's highways for personal
gain now avoid regulation and the
payment of fees because of the pres
ent inadequacy of the Motor Carriers
Act" the commissioners said. eff
this situation is to be corrected, the
Board must be empowered tor prose-

law by means of pseudo leases, bills

annual expenditure for school trans
portation for the public schools of
Montana; the other two-thirds are
derived from county and district
funds.
In discussing the return of the
buses to the highways at the begin
ming of another school year, Miss
Miller said, "On September 2, 1858,
approximately 10000 Montana school
children will board some 826 public
financed buses driven by a crew of
the finest bus drivers in the nation.
Montana school bus drivers hold the
amazing safety record of completing
ten years of death-free driving. Dur
ing 1958-59 our bright yellow school
buses will again average more than
$4,000 miles each day for an annual
average exceeding 100000 miles"
