Rep. EDWARD WILLIAMSON

In reply to the statement made
by Senator A. w. williamson re-
lative to the House Bills 1124,
ll25 and 1884 which he chose
not to honor, can only say that
he acted to carry out his state

cording to him intends to kill
all Columbus County School
legislation that originates in the
House." Sunday Star-News. Sun

1. House Bill 1924 which pro.
vided for nomination of mem
bers of the Columbus County

and equal representation that
the County could have. 1t would
1ovide that people in the less
populated areas would have equal
voice on the Board as would the
member from a thickly populat.

representation should be based
on geographic areas as we'll as
population and would mean that
the two or thre heavy populated
areas would not completely con-

Problem:
Kitchen
Too Cold.
BY ROGER c. WHITMAN
Contributing Writer

Question: All Of the ranch
type homes in our develop
ment have the same problem.
Our kitchens are very cold.
Air is coming behind our
metal cabinets. We checked
but can't find any place air
would be coming IN. ANY sug-
sestion might help.
Answer: Apparently the
builders may not have in
sulated the walls behind the
kitchen cabinets. 1t would be
well to have this point
checked. A leak somewhere in
the wall, such as around a
poorly caulked window frame,
would be another possible
source Of cold air leaking in.
But since all the houses are
similarly affected, I doubt If
this would be the real case;
faulty, or non-existant in
sulation, would be much
more probable.

hearings, Cecil Mitchell testified
ominously that eat least half a

727 president, took the stand, he
made this comment about MitchelI's
testimony: "Well, those large indi-
viduals were members of the Los

one of those who was there was

Land Values, Mortgages Increase
U.S.. Ag Department Reports

WASHINGTON, D. C.-(NFU)-
Is there no limit to how high land
prices will go? This question is being
asked in the wake of the latest USDA
report on farm real estate develop
ments.
According to this report, farm land
went up another $50 in the 4-month
period ending last March /. Revised
value estimates were at record high
levels in all states except South
Dakota. But even in South Dakota,
along with North Dakota and six
Southern states, USDA figures that
land prices since March 1, 1853, have
gone up 1910 or more. In March 1859,
land values were estimated as being
four times higher than the 1888 low
and $3.50 above the 1947-49 average.
The value change since 1947-49
has been greatest in Florida (145%6)
and least in some New England states
and in some of the Plains states where
drouth was severe for several years.
Corn Belt land went up an average
of 1870.

Elevator Tragedy Brings Needed
Action By Board of Examiners

Wednesday the Board of Examiner
ordered Custodian Andrew Anderson
to lock with chain and paddock the
old elevator that mangled the lef1
arm of Helena boy.
The Attorney Generals office is
making full report on the tragic oc-
currance that brought an ambulance
screaming to the Capitol Monday.
Fortunately there were trained
people from the Livestock building
who were able to give immediate first
aid. us
The elevator is provided with an
operator only during legislative ses-
sions. The doorless cage is of very
ancient vintage and passengers are
always cautioned to "step back.
Three boys found the open elevator
on the ground floor and decided to
ride up. The plaster is knocked from
the shaft between the first and second
floors leaving scar for legislators
to remind them that passing a law
to allow district courts to award dam
ages against the State is not enough.
Montana should show leadership in
adopting the use of the best and safest
equipment.
More horror was envisioned now
that summer vacation is here, by the
Examiners. Young boys seem obsessed
to climb the outside of the building.
The recessed shadow lines in the sand
stone and granite capitol are con-
strued as ladders to the ledge running
around the second floor. Sometime,
one of these climbers is going to mis-
judge his human fly abilities. (You

farm income with respect to tota
| national income? In some areas. not
ably where wheat is a main crop, lane
values were strengthened during 1858
by unusually high harvest yields which
more than offset the minimum sup
port price and by temporarily strong
livestock prices along with abundant,
lower-price feed supplies.
However, in general, according to
USDA, land prices have been respond
ing since 1854 to widespread belief
(among many non-farmers, too) that
farmland is safe investment and to
pressures of farm operators for larg-
er operations to maintain farm in
come.
With the rise in land prices, there
also has been an increase in use of
mortgages to buy. In 1916, nearly
three-fifths of all sales were esti-
mated to be for cash. At present, cash
sales account for only a third of the
transfers.
Farm real estate mortgages during
the last six months of 1858 totalled
the largest for the last half of any
year since records were started in
1884. Federal land bank loans in
creased by 31%o; those of other lend
ers by about 1919.
