"Hang Down Your Head, Tom Dooley :. :"
Bill 0rse|Io's Resignation

The resignation of William Orsello
the Helena district parole officer
becomes effective December 10, 1858
Orsello explains this action as "cul-
mination of events" and that his rea-
sons could not be tied to a single
point.
when Orsello fills out a job ap-
plication blank, it will report that
after his stint in the service he was
an undersheriff in Lewis and Clark
county in AT to 80. From 80 to '55
he was with the Helena cops, the last
two years as juvenile officer. 1855
saw the creation of Montana's present
parole system with. district offices
in Missoula, Helena and Billings.
Headquarters and an inside man are
at the Deer Lodge prison. Orsello
started with the system at that time
and on December 10, 1858 fms is

Competition Doesn't Exist
In Steel, Judge Says

NEW YORK CITY-(CNS)-
There is no real price competition
in the iron and steel industry" said
u. S. District Court Judge Edward
Weinfeld, as he barred merger of
the second and sixth largest steel
makers, November 20.
"The record establishes that u. S.
Steel initiates price changes and
that all other steel producers fol-
low its lead. With few exceptions,
the mill price for each steel prod
uct does not vary significantly from
company to company"
Officials of Bethlehem Steel Cor
poration had sought to acquire
Youngstown Sheet & Tube Com
Pany, thus creating a giant $2.7-
billion corporation with 20 u mil
lion tons of steel capacity.
The scheme runs afoul" of the
antitrust laws Gin so many direc-
tions" as to render them STERILE"
said Judge Weinfeld in an 89S-page
opinion. 1t would, he said, eliminate
substantial competition between the
two firms, both present and poten-
tial.

FOUNDATION PROGRAM
REVISION

Revision Of the Foundation Pro-
gram, in light Of material produced
by the Peabody Institute survey is
also suggested. These proposed re-
visions include: 1. equitable alloca-
ton of costs of education for all Mon
tana youth; 2. application of a COM
mon, statewide standard of taxation
of real property; 8. achievement of
efficiency and economy in school OPP
GRAFTON to the greatest extent possible
in keeping with the needs of the peo-
pie and their ability and willingness
to pay.
Another Foundation Program re-
vision recommended would knock
out of the program a 1857 amend
ment which permits high schools
not accredited by State Board of
Education to receive state equali-
cation aid.
Standardization of school forms,
legislation to bring about better CO.
ordination in the administration of
higher education, possible enabling
legislation to permit Montana to par
5icipate in the National Defense Edu-
cation Act of 1858, school district
reorganization and consolidation, are
till other recommendation by the

PROPOSED LAWS MEANING
TO HOME OWNER

Under this proposed legislation the
family that buys home in one of the
fringe areas would have reasonable
assurance that he would have a source
of safe water and that the sewage
from his property and that of all the
residents of the area would be dis
posed of properly. Thus his financial
investment would be protected as
well as the health of his family and
the community so far as illness from
improper sewage disposal is con-
cerned.

City >Outskirts Wafer and Sewage
Facilities Legislation Is Needed
By Division of Envronmental Sanitation


ton prepared for the 1857 Legislature
but not acted upon, is to prevent I'M
sanitary conditions due to improper
waste and sewage facilities in future
subdivisions in Montana.
The purpose of this proposed Leg
islation is not to prevent the con-
struction of septic tanks, but, rath-
err, to make it possible for the per-
son who purchases property in one
of these areas to know that if he
constructs a septic tank he will
have reasonable assurance that it
will serve satisfactorily. Further
more, if he constructs a well, that
it will not be contaminated by
drainage from his own or a neigh
boris septic tank or cesspool.
If subdivider provides approved
public water and sewage disposal ia
cilities, the approval of the subdivi-
sion by the State Board of Health
would be automatic.
If the soil conditions or the size
of the lot are not proper for the con-
struction of well or individual sew
age disposal system, the subdivider
would know this in advance. The leg
islation would prevent the future sub
division of the property until such
time as the owner presented plans
for public facilities for proper sized |
lots and soil conditions for septic tank
operation and had them approved by
he State Board of Health.

without protective legislation,
health and property in the Outskirts
or fringe" areas just outside the
city limits of many Montana towns
are endangered. This same situation
is occurring in many parts of the
nation and is being met successfully
only where proper legislation has
been enacted and where far-sighted
planning has occurred,
These residential and sometimes
industrial areas are springing up,
usually within few mile radius of
the city limits, and too often without
adequate provision for sewage dis
posal and/or a safe water supply.
Proper legislation is past due and will
again be submitted to the 1859 Legis-
lature for its consideration.

REQUIREMENTS FOR THE
SUBDIVIDER

The subdivider would be required,
under the proposed legislation, to
submit to the State Board of Health
a copy of the same map of the prop
erty that he is now required to pre-
sent to the County Commissioners
under existing legislation.
On this map he would show the
source and method of water supply
and sewage disposal for the subdivi-
sion. This map with the descriptive
material would be submitted to the
State Board of Health for review and
approval.
If the subdivider was providing ia
cilities from the public system, which
either already exists or is a new sys-
tenn, he would submit the same kind
of plans and specifications to the
State Board of Health for approval,
which are now required of any pub
lie water or sewage system in Mon
tana.
If a public water supply was not
planned the subdivider would indi-
cate the source or sources of water
for each lot in the subdivision. If a
series of individual wells is planned, !
sufficient distance would be required |
between the water supply and sewer
so as to prevent seepage from con-
Eliminating the water supply.
If public sewage disposal system
is not planned the subdivider would
be required to describe the type of
to be used. If septic tanks or
cesspools were to be used, this would
require data on the location of wells,
water mains, if any, the ground water
level, the contour of the land. size
If lots, soil porosity and the type of
iwelling or business construction in
ended in order to determine that the
proposed septic plan would function.
TO MONTANA CITIES
The proposed legislation has real
meaning to Montana cities. This is
because the problems of the "fringe'
reas soon become the problems of the
entral city. Health hazards in these
reas affect the entire community 5
