miums to 2.7 per cent which may be
forthcoming-strike or no strike.
Noting that Smith had laid blame
for 23-month drop of more than IL
million dollars (from $45 to $31.6
million) in the fund on revisions of
the UCC act made by the 1857 Legis-
lature, Root pointed out: "the changes
made in the UCC law by the 1857 ses-
sion were the result of com
promise between industry representa-
tives. This bill was signed into law
by Governor Aronson."
Continuing, Root stated that 1.-THE
1859 session of the Legislature passed
a bill that would have raised the min
imum amount of earnings required TO
draw benefits. 1t would have also low
cred the point at which all covered
employers would be required by law
to contribute at the maximum rate
of 2.7 per cent from $28 million to
$25 million. 1t would also have raised
the average contribution rate from
1.2 per cent to 1T per cent"
hese changes would nave pro
tected the trust fund balance and
would have substantially prolonged
the time at which all employers
would have been required to GO TO
the maximum 2.7 contribution rate.
"This BILL" he said, twas vetoed
by Gov. Aronson on Chairman Smiths
Therefore Chair
man Smith," and not the 1869 Legis-
lature, must bear full responsibility
for any depletion of the UCC trust
fund or the raising of contribution
rates and should not be trying to
place the blame in advance on the

ing Wednesday press release by
Smith in which he asserted that a
strike "could not only retard the for
ward march of high gains in industrial
employment in Montana since the first
of the year, but could also tend to
shorten the time when 2.7 per cent
tax rate would become mandatory
for all Montana employers covered
under the Unemployment Compensa-
ton Commission law" (PV empha-
sis).
At that time, Smith pointed out
that while strikers would not be elig-
ible for jobless comp, other employees
laid off because of the strike, would
result in doubling the pay-out from
the compensation fund from $65, 700
to $4,000 per week. He also said
a strike could cost the UCC fund
100000 or more in lost employer
premiums on payrolls.

SMITH SAYS ROOT is
INACCURATE

Smarting over having been publicly
taken to task by Root, Smith on Mon
day asserted Roots statement needs
amendment to include accuracy -"
Defending Aronson's veto of the
1859 compensation bill, Smith con-
tended that the measure (Sub. HB
358) "was certainly not intended as
a measure to protect the unemploy-
ment compensation funds". Instead,
he said, it would have raised benefit
costs $4,896,OOO a year in its original
form, and $1,429,O0O as finally
amended.

for increasing unemployment compen-
sation taxes" he said, "the fund bal

haps never before compiled in a utility
rate case in Montana.
Throughout the hearings the tele
phone company has had corps OF
specialists in constant attendance. AS
many as % telephone experts fol
lowed testimony and cross examina-
tion of their own experts, the COM
mission expert and the protestant's
expert with pencil, paper, slide rules,
financial guides, law books and COM
pany records.
DR.. Knappen brought two suibcases
and brief case to the hearings each
day, and DR.. Thatcher travelled the
lghtest, with two brief cases, no doubt
depending on commission records and
files for his references.
The telephone company, contending
the rate structure in Montana is such
that it is difficult for them to raise
capital in these times of initiation with
which to expand, still rejects the
PHILOSOPHERS of Thatcher and KNAPP
pen that rates should be based on the
cost of capital, and prefer rate based
on the value of their plant at the price
of reproducing it new. They insist
their risk as an industry is comparable
to industries other than other utilities
because people will give up their
before they will convert to
wood or oil lamps. The telephone
utility believes it is the sign of a
successful business to be debt free,
and presently has a financial struc-
5ure based on 23@o debt capital and
77%0 equity (stock) capital.

Fast Growth OF Child's Feet Hard
For Mothers Buying School Shoes

With school starting again
many parents are buying shoes
for their children and the chan
ces are that within an amaz-
ingly short time the shoes won't
fit anymore, according to cloth
ing specialist, Janet Reed, Uni
versity of Delaware.
She said about 80 percent of
our children have something
wrong with their feet by the
time they reach high school.
Most of the trouble can be at
tributed to poor fitting shoes.
''By the time our youngsters
reach ten years of age, half of
them are well on their way to-
ward foot problems!"
The major trouble is the fast
growth of a child's feet. For a
baby around eight months old,
you may need to buy him new
shoes every month. From Is
months to two years old, junior
will probably need a new pair
every two to three months.

In fact it is usually a mistake
to buy a youngster two pairs
OF shoes at once. A common
error is to have a good pair
which doesn't get much use and
then the youngster gets them
after they are already too small,
and wears them until they wear
out, whether they fit or not!
Children's feet are very pill
able and can be deformed by
poor fitting shoes without SER
ious discomfort to the youngs-
ter, so the only way to guard
against this is to be sure the
shoes fit when they are purch-
ased and to change them as af-
ten as necessary to keep up
with the child's growth.
Redness or marks on the feet
when shoes aand socks are TAX
en- off may indicate poor fitting
shoes. Any rough, hardened
skin may indicate trouble. If
