The Peoples Voice,
Helena, Montana
Dear Editor:
l was just noticing the subscription
renewal date of my copy of The
Peoples Voice. According to it, it is
time for me to send in the money to
renew it for another year. Inclosed
please find my check.
l have enjoyed reading the paper
very much the past year, and l feel
that you have done your readers a
real service in calling our attention
to the affairs of State.
Your handling of the news of our
last Legislature has been especially
good. I realize how hard it is to give
your readers first hand information
in regard to that body, for a person
never knows how anything is going
to turn out till the Governor has acted
on all the bills after the legislators
have gone home. That is the time
when a weak, shiftless Governor shows
his true connections. 1 think that the
people of this State have seen one
of the most disgusting examples of
statesmanship exhibited in 1859 that
was ever forced upon a decent, hard
working people.
We people in Montana have much
to thank lot of hard working mem
bers, of the House of Representatives
for. They accomplished almost the
impossible at times, and the fact that
many good bills fell by the wayside
is no fault of their own. The action
of the Senate on many matters leaves
much to be explained, but 1 think that
everybody has pretty good idea of
what happened there.
There is one thing I think that we
all feel Seeing what was accomplished
by the members of the House this
session, we now know that the State
of Montana is marching towards the
day when she will be rid of corporate
control of the State Legislature, in
God We Trust. l will be willing to bet

Committees irresponsible Letter Sidetracked
Examiners Have Spring Fever

The Board of Examiners got the
fever Monday, Spring fever, that is.
Engineer for the board, Martin
Kelly. was in with Lee Kendrick to
see about the spring planting work
that is to be done around the Gov
ernor's mansion and the Laboratory
building. Kendrick is from the
Maierle- Morrison engineering firm,
and l guess with all the backlash from
the legislature the firm forgot that
they had been instructed last Jan. 6
to go ahead with the detailed draw
ings of the landscape work.
Not having the plans ready now
will be hardship. Shrubs that should
be planted by May 1st, can't because
of the legally-required advertising
time for bids.
The $4,000 that the rough esti-
mate called for for landscaping
around the Governors mansion was
pared to $27,438 by the legislature,
by eliminating some sidewalks, etc.
(This is the same 36th session that
turned the proposed Unemployment

on the lots that the Examiners had
reserved for the Board of Health
office building.) The fancy grid or

Farmers Union building and included
speakers from Montana State Col
lege and regional managers from the
many departments of the grain busi-
ness handled by the Grain Terminal
Association.
Displays of products handled by
GTA included signs which pointed to
the growth of the cooperative such
as: "For every one bushel marketed
in 1888 GTA markets 81 bushels
today" and "For every local elevator
served in 1888 and 1899 GTA serves
3K today.

were in charge of the annual school.

It'll look nice from the parking lot
anyhow.
The fever has done got Attorney
General Forrest Anderson so bad
he is in California, so Gov. J. Hugo
Aronson and Secretary of State
Frank Murray lazied off until Ander-
son gets back, that letter the Senate
Finance and Claims Committee sent
concerning Architects J. J. Link and
Norman Hamill.
This irresponsible missive, which
pontificates that Link and Hamill
should never again receive state work
under any conditions whatsoever,
would be best lost in the shuttle
That the fine senators should leave
such a misconception lying around
in official files only detracts from
the good name of their committee.
Their labors were supposedly rough,
but that the work left them added,
one must surmise from the letter.
Why can't they leave the poison pen
work to us freelancers?
The letter is pure (?) politics be-
cause it mentions only two Democrats
and left out Republican Cohagen who
designed the Goverrsor's mansion. All
architects are professional men and
to believe that their political opin-
ions have any bearing on their work
is to invade the mad little world of
my pen and l don't like IT'S.

Sen. Thiessen Commended

Tho Peoples Voice: =
Find check for $500 to extend my
subscription, couldn't get along with
out the paper.
1 fully agree with Senator Thiessen
that Chairman Burns of the Highway
Commission should make public apoI-
ogy to the people of Richland county.
AS long as we have a democracy we
will send to the legislature from this
county whom the people elect. We
might have done little better but
we certainly didn't go wrong when
we sent Mr.. Thiessen. I think he is
to be comm ended for the work he has
done in the legislature. Respectfully

any bill, or proceedings of the legis-

pearance, that the same would appear
as legislative bills or proceedings
without plainly printing and stating
thereon that the same was printed

the same and that said printing and
circulation was not at State expense"
This special investigation during
the 35th session of 1857 stemmed
from the unauthorized printing and
circulation of HB 224 which was
killed in committee and never author
lied to be printed.
Influential lobbyists representing
a major Montana corporations had
5000 copies of 224 (so-called ''grad-
uated land tax" BILLY printed and
circulated in the counties where the
four sponsors of the bill reside. The
intent was to defeat these representa-
tives in their bid for reelection.
"SHB 72 would have conformed
with our state election laws" Abel
said, 'in that our present laws re-
quire all political candidates and
those printing and circulating politi-
cal material to carry a credit line to
identify themselves.
"SHB 72 would have protected the
legislators who introduce House and

hectic short session, before they have
had time to thoroughly study the bill

Capital Budget Sought To
Hasten Nufion's S Progress
By BARROW LYONS, Special to THE PEOPLES VOICI


WASHINGTON, D. C.-In an effort to of the
barriers against mobzng the full productive capacity of the
nation and thus ending unemployment Senator Wayne Morse
(DOre has just introduced bill calling for the establish
ment of capital budget This will become important part
of the legislative of the liberal in the Senate

election will leave at home the mem

TO UNLOCK PRODUCTIVE
ENERGY

Senators Morse and Humphrey are
convinced that adoption of such q
budget this year would unlock eco
nomic activity needed to bring about
full employment. Private industry OBJ
viously is unable to bring this about,
and the result is widespread suffering
on the part of millions of families
suffering which congressional liberals
believe is unnecessary.
Opposition to the capital budget
arises partly from inertia-unwilling-
ness to alter customary ways of con-
Quoting government business. But it
also has deep, theological roots in the
theoretical aversion of bankers and
money managers of anything which
smacks of socialism-anything which
would place in the hands of the
elected representatives of the people
greater responsibility for manage
ment of the economy.
It is too soon to predict whether
Senator Morse's bill has any chance
of passage in the present Congress.
1t may require more years of unem-
ployment on the part of millions, con-
more public discussion to
drive the point home with the public
present media of mass edu-
cation, before action can be obtained.
1t may also require more years for
the public fully to realize that our
way of doing business is being com
pared daily by the rest of the world
with the rapid economic progress of
socialist countries.

development of new irrigation prof
ects.
SUCCESSFUL IN SWEDEN
For many years the Swedish gov
ernment has used this form of capital
budgeting. 1t indicates what must be
collected in taxes to achieve true
financial balance. Self-liquidating
projects in the active debt class are
kept out of the budget entirely, un-
less they show losses.
Projects in the passive debt class
are amortized over the life of the
projects, charging each year only a
proportionate part of the cost-not
the entire outlay on the project for
the year as we do in making up for
budget. A budget of the Swedish type
is "balanced" when taxes are enough
to cover all regular operating ex-
penses, all interest, and amortization
of the passive debt.
Although such budget almost in
evitably goes out of balance during
serious depression, it also shows a sur
plus in prosperous years. 1t helps to
tell the nation just where it stands
financially. This the Swedish people
have discovered to their great advan-
tage. And during period, of say
eight or ten years, it always balances.
Such procedure would exempt from
the national gross debt expenditures
for such projects as the Saint Law
renee Seaway Development Corpora
tion, the proposed self financing plan
for IVA, appropriations for REA,
projects, and loans made
for productive purposes with pro-
visions for amortization and interest
payments.

Stupidity in right field. Ill-Will

On our side, we had Truth at

third base, Liberty in center field,
Justice in right field, Freedom
