MISC Enrolment Eor
Spring Quarter 300

BOZEMAN-There are 3,1OO stu
dents enrolled at Montana State Col
lege for the spring quarter, or a 1912
per cent increase over the same
quarter in 1857, preliminary report
by Registrar Martha Hawksworth re-
veals.
'"This means that the increase for
the entire year haseheld steady" says
Miss Hawksworth. And the MISC req
istrar expects approximately 80 more
students to register this quarter.
Of the 3,1OO students enrolled at
the institution, Sc are new registrants.
Forty-three of the sc are former stu
dents returning to the campus while
there are 43 new students.
Of the five divisions at Montana
State, engineering continues to have
the largest enrolment. The report
shows that there are 1892 students
in engineering, 740 in the division of
science, 426 in household and applied
arts, 381 in the division of education
and 361 in the division of agriculture.
AS usual, Iile IIcSHHdH CLASS is Cne
largest. The report shows that there
are $50 freshmen, 838 sophomores,
579 juniors, and 524 seniors. There
are 172 graduate students at MISC,
bringing the total to 3,10O.
There are CTS veterans enrolled
for the spring quarter. This contrasts
to Immediately after the war when
ex-servicemen made up a large per-
centage of the student body.

Nd. Republicans Nominate
Power Company Official In
Move To Defeat LANCER

WASHINGTON, d. c (NRECA)
North Dakota power companies
have unsuccessfully fought to push
Sen. William LANCER out of public
office for over quarter of GEN.
tury. Evidently tired of the feat, this
year they have selected one of their
own fraternity to oppose the 18-year
Senate veteran, considered one of the
best friends the rural electrification
program has in Congress.
The North Dakota Republican State
Central Committee last week by
passed LANCER and endorsed Clyde
Duffy, member of the board of di-
rectors of the Otter Tail Power Co.,
for the United States Senate. LANCER
will oppose Duffy in the state pri-
maries in June.
LANCER faced a similar situation in
1852 when the Republican State Cen
trail Committee endorsed Fred Aan-
dahl, presently Assistant Secretary of
Interior, for the Senate. LANCER
trounced Aandahl in the primary.
The population of North Dakota
in the 1850 census was 619,636. Ap-
proximately 500 of North Dakotans
are engaged in agriculture.
Duffy, in addition to being di-
rector of Otter Tail Power Co., is a
successful lawyer and banker He is
68 years old, three years younger than
LANCER. According to Moody's Public
Utilities Manual, none of the principal
holders of Common stock in Otter
Tail resides in North Dakota.

Landowners
Plan Statewide
Organization

The Lower Yellowstone Protective
Association has scheduled a state
wide meeting to be held at the Labor
Temple, April IL, 1858, located at
"a South 29th Street, Billings. This
meeting is being called for the pur-
pose of discussing interstate highway
routing, and to take preliminary steps
toward statewide organization, ac-
cording to ]. o. Wold, Jr., Laurel,
association president.
The Lower Yellowstone Valley As
sociation, representing group of
landowners, was organized to protest
routing tn Interstate Highway
through irrigated bottomland in the
Yellowstone Valley. The group wants
the road to cross ess-productive lands
north of the valley rim. The choice
farm lands are valuable part of the
heritage of future generations. Also
there is a tremendous saving to the
states taxpayers from less expensive
right-ofways, and far less mainte-
nance costs in following years, which
is the sole obligation of the state,
without the benefit of federal aid
United States congressman, repre-
sentatives, Governor Aronson, farm
association leaders, the press, and the
general public have been invited Rep.
Leroy Anderson has affirmed that
he will attend. 1t is expected that
many of the others will also be in

citation, noted that Agriculture Secre-
tary Ezra Benson's order, effective
two days earlier, will save the gov
ernment 19c per 100 pounds on the
% of U. S. milk output it buys.
'In contrast, the nations dairy
farmers will lose on their entire pro-
duction about $21O Million" he said.
Benson cut supports on manufac-
tured milk products from 1925 to
$500 per 100 pounds, April 1. Winn
said he expected dairy farmers to
expand their output in an effort to
make up for their lost income.
"There's no evidence that lower
farm prices have been translated into
greater sales," he said. "Per capita
sales of all dairy products, in milk
equivalent, were at record low in
1857"

Under Benson
& a. m. To Midnight
Jobs Help Farmer and
Wife Stay On Land

Senator James E. Murray has cited
to the Senate one of the Department
of Agriculture's GLOWING examples
of an achievement of it's Rural Devel-
opment Program for family farmers
as cause for firing Secretary of Agri-
culture Benson "by sundown".
Reading from a USDA publication,
Extension Service Review, Murray
quoted this example of how the pro-
gram for family farmers works. The
magazine said:
Farm people in the county (Choc-
tow county, Oklahoma) were quoick
to take advantage of the opportuni-
ties provided through the Rural De-
velopment Program. Floyd Berry and
wife are good examples. Berry oper-
ates a 280-acre farm and has small
grade A dairy and commercial beef
herd. To supplement farm income Mrs.
Berry drew on her experience as a
housewife to get a job cooking in a
local cafe. She works from am. to
2 pm. daily. Her husband is working
at filling station from pm. until
midnight.
BERRY handles the farm chores in
the morning and his wife takes over
:"
Senator Murray then commented:
''This, then, is the formula for sue
cessful farming under Benson. Get |
your wife a full-time job in town.
Get yourself full-time job in town.
eff you are lucky, the husbands
in-town wages will pay the losses re-
sulting from farming under Benson
and you will still have your wife's
pay as fry-cook to buy some grocer
les and clothing.
''This glowing example of the oper-
atoms and achievements of one of Mr..
Benson's programs simply reinforces
ny own conviction that he should be
fired before sundown-a conviction
have had for the last 1896 days,
which goes back to the day after his

supports will mean additional finan
cial hardships for the producers ant
the economy as whole.
Consumers will not benefit by
the farm price cuts enforced in
Washington. Experience in recent
years is that while farmer-received
prices have been declining, consum-
er prices have been climbing higher
and higher.
"The tragedy of the situation, ~
Kenfield said, "is that there is no Ad-
ministration effort to decrease gov
ernment aids to the steel makers, the
railroads, the bankers, the private
power companies, the big commercial
publishers, and many other big busi-
ness elements with whom the farmer
must deal.
Rather than relieving farmers
from enforced stagnation', as the
President says, his policies are driv-
ing them to it. In a recent Eisenhower
year, more than 100000 farm peo-
pie drifted to the cities in one of the
greatest mass migrations in our ma
tion's history. Meanwhile unemploy-
ment in the cities scared to more
than 100000 plus several millions
more unemployed part-time, which
is the largest number of us. jobless
since the early 1940's.
GAS to the controls of which the
President complained in his veto
message, it must be said that bank
ruptcy resulting from low income is
Itself a pretty rigid control. Most
farmers I know are willing to accept
of production and market
ng if they have assurance of full
parity prices on what they do produce.
It is ironic that President Eisenhower
md his Secretary of Agriculture
stiffened up the controls
when they removed several years ago
much of the democratic authority of |

what has not been done anC
what should be done.
Mansfield, who is majority whip in
the Senate, said this recession, like
others in history is farm led and farm
bred and steps must be taken to keer
it from developing into a depression
He said he was for 900 of parity
and he did not know if it was going
to be possible to override the Presi.
dents veto of the farm price freeze
bill. At the time of the Easter recess
he said they were two votes short of
being able to override. He thought
perhaps by the time the senators had
been home for a few days some of
them might change their minds. eff
it is possible, he said, "we will over
ride the veto'.
Mansfield pointed out Legislation
supported by the Democrats to allevi-
ate the recession included the high:
way building program, forest roads,
access roads, the Lewis & Clark high
way, loans for housing on a reason
able basis, the Community Facilities
bill, and extension of unemployment
compensation. He said this was all
"meritorious legislation.
He said the President didn't know
where to go on the serious problems
facing the nation, and that Eisen-
hower's "chins up and eyes front"
slogan didn't mean anything because
1--WE are not in the Army.
Mansfield declared the American
people wanted jobs not charity.
In the field of foreign policy he
said we have suffered many humiliat-
ing defeats. He said NATO is steadily
disintegrating and we are spending
our sustenance on something that has
outlived its usefulness.
About national defense he sug-
gested the number of generals and
admirals in Washington be cut in
half, as well as the undersecretaries,
and he would not give more control |
to the Secretary of Defense, mo
matter whether he were Democrat
or Republican" Mansfield stressed

lowing the resignation of John E.
Henry.
Smith was not a member of the
Commission during 1853 and 1854
when the controversial utility rate
cases were decided, granting increases
to the Mountain States Telephone &
Telegraph Company, the Montana
Power Company and the Montana
Dakota Utilities Company.
A lifelong Montanan, Smith was
born on his family's ranch in the
Boulder Valley in 1904, the son of
Con Smith and the former Sarah
Maquire. His father, a prominent
Montana pioneer, arrived in Virginia
City in 1868.
During his years on the Commits
sion, Smith has been active in opposi-
tion to freight rate increases. He has
appeared several times before the
Interstate Commerce Commission in
Washington, D. c., in protest to higher
rates. He also represented the Mon
tana Commission at the 1866 hearing
in Phoenix, Ariz., which resulted in
rate reductions averaging 25 per cent
on interstate rail movements into
Montana.
81 will continue to work diligently
for more equitable freight rates for
Montana" he stated.
AS Commission chairman. Smith
was instrumental in establishing the
split-hearing procedure in the major
rate cases heard recently. Spokesman
for groups opposing the proposed in
creases praised this move, saying it
enabled them better opportunity to
present their case.
"Utility rate cases affect the pock-
etbooks of practically all Montanans,"
Smith said, "and every effort must
De made to fully protect the interests

Utilities are entitled to receive what.
he courts have held to be fair re-
urn upon their investment and it is
he Commissions duty to allow that

,e permitted to charge one cent more
han the law allows. These rate cases
must be given the fullest possible
crutiny so the Commission can fix
ates which will be fair to the custo-
ners and fair to the utility"
In 1857, Smith initiated a move
lined at reducing the price of gaso-
me in Montana. He appeared before
legislative committee with a re-
uest for funds to finance an investi-
alton of gas prices by the Commits
ion. This proposals was studied by
ne Legislature but no action was
AIKEN before the close of the 1857
ession. 81 will continue my efforts to
btain fair gasoline prices for the
eople of Montana" Smith said.
