Advertising of State
Grazing Lands

HB 425 by Bardanouve (D-Blaine)
proposed that all leases, when about
to expire, be advertised in the of
ficial paper of the county so that all
persons interested would know of
their availability, thus tending to
end the "closed corporation" complex
of state grazing land leasing and to
bring much higher rentals for the
schools as a result of competitive
bidding. The present leaseholder
would continue to have the right to
meet the highest bid and thus retain
his lease.
HB 425, although given a substan-
tial vote of approval in the House,
didn't even so much as come in for
watering down. in that private do
main of the stockmen, the Senate
Public Lands Committee under Chair
man Webster Keller. 1t was killed
on voice vote adoption of commit
tee adverse report without so much
as murmur of opposition from the
Senate floor.
The House roll call follows:

Rural residents are admitted to
hospitals more often than urban resi-
dents, the Health Information Foun-
dation says. But city dwellers, once
admitted to hospitals, generally re-
quire a longer stay.

this year as ranchers had made their
payments on their 1859 leases. So,
if we try to increase rentals in 1861,
they will tell us those rentals can't
go into effect in that year but will
have to wait until 1862
The people's voice., 1959-03-20
CONSERVATION ALLOWANCE
RACKET REMOVED

The only other change in the bill
as it is now written is in removing
the so-called conservation allowance
which the renters of state lands have
been receiving. This has been largely
racket which has robbed Montana
of hundreds of thousands of dollars
over the past few years. This allow
ance was for improving lands but in
most cases it went into the pockets
of the people who were leasing them
The argument you hear about these
lands is they have no water on them
in many cases, therefore they should
lease for less. If we have been allow
ing ranchers thousands of dollars for
conservation practices on these lands
they should by now have had reser-
voirs on all these lands. Besides. the
U. S. Department of Agriculture
makes payments for building reser-
voirs.
The reason that they allowed us
only raise for one year is that they
are hoping that two years from
now guys like me won't be back
here.
Another item you should bear in
mind they will do the same thing
1.-TWO years hence) they have done
this year. You know this bill will
have no effect on rentals charged for
this year. They remain at the ridicu-
lous figure of 28 cents. They told
us this law couldn't go into effect

The House called for a conference
committee. The President of the Sen
ate appointed two of the three men
on this committee who had served on
the Senate Public Lands Committee
which had chopped up my original
bill. Sen. Beley, the third member on
this committee, offered the conferees
a compromise. House members agreed
to the compromise, but the cattle

FAIR CONFERENCE
COMMITTEE REFUSED

We asked for a new conference
committee. These same two men (Kel-
Ter and Scofield) refused to even
allow us the courtesy of a fair con-
ference committee. They killed our
request on the floor of the Senate
after Sen. Ringing cracked his whip
The leadership of the House went
to the Senate and demanded a con-
ference committee. We had to crawl
on our bellies, and finally they gave
us (second) conference committee
on their own terms.
This morning Saturday we ap-
peared before the Senate conferees
on bended knees-a conference COM
mittee with two Republicans and one
Democrat on it. | wonder if in the
history Of this legislature there has
ever been a time (before) that the
minority party had a majority on a
conference committee.
We took the few crumbs that
they handed to us.
For the year 196O-61 they agreed
to give us figure that will give us
about So cents (per AUM). After
that it will be down to around 40
cents or less depending on the price
of cattle.

Remember Mother on Her
Day"
The day which Is now OBJ
served all over the world, was
started on a May Sunday In
1908 when Miss Anna M.

phia spinster. sent 500 white
carnations 10 her church 10
honor her mothers memory.
Grieving extravagantly
over the death OF her mother
three years before. Miss Jar
Wis was determined TO estab-
fish a national holiday hon.
oring the Nations mothers
particularly her own,
However, 1t was the con-
fiict Of Miss Jarvis senti-
mentality with her other
qualities Of being militant
and sharp-tongued which was
TO lead her TO a pauper's
grave after spending her
small inheritance on a fruit
less fight TO stop the CONNER
cialization Of her ideal.
In the 81 years since
Mothers Day was first OBJ
served by a few churches, it
has grown into a holiday
which the National Retail
Merchants Association calls
a powerful sales-producing
event ranking second only to
Christmas"
To Anna Jarvis, however,
the Nations m erchants
turned Mothers Day into a
bonanza, a far cry from the
religious and idealistic
bounds which she had set
for it.
Perhaps it was the ex-
ample of her own mother
that gave Miss Jarvis the
germ for her idea. The fam
lily was living in West Vir-
ginia at the end of the Civil
War. Distressed at the way
the conflict had split fam
lilies, Mrs. Jarvis organized a
Mothers Friendly Day" to
bring together the families
of both Union and Confeder-
ate veterans in an effort to
heal the scars.
The beginnings OF the
modern Mothers Day fol-
lowed Mrs. Jarvis death in
1905. On the second ami
versary of her death, her
daughter held memorial serv-
ices in the family home.
From that time on she was
of on a single-minded cru

Thousands Of stores have
urged Us for the past few
weeks 10 purchase a gift for
mother" Every conceivable
item has been suggested,
from vacuum cleaners 10 han
kiea, and we have been told
that, BY presenting this or
that Gift. we win express TO
mother our love for her.
In my opinion. the real
meaning Of Mothers Day has
been lost in recent years by
the placing Of the whole idea
on q commercial basis. The
"give a gift" plea has been
over-emphasIzed and over
advertised, cheapening the
day upon which we may show
q public expression Of our
love and reverence for the
mothers OF our country" This
phrase is included in the
proclamation issued by Pres
ident Wilson on May 8. 1914.
which set aside the second
Sunday in May as the day
for the commemoration Of
mothers.
Have you ever stopped to
think that the gift Of consid-
Grafton would mean more to
mother than all the material
gifts in the world? We talk
about consideration for others
being the basis of manners
and good behavior, but all
too often we let our hair down
with those close to us and
don't make the effort to show
thought for them. Particu-
larly is this true in the rela-
tionship with mother. We
take for granted her unselflsh
love and untiring efforts in
our behalf. Since our ear
lest recollection, she has
healed our bumps and tried
to make our way an easy one,
so we accept it as our lust
due.
And what do we give in
return? Love and affection,
yes but how do we ex-
press it? BY a gift and effu-
sive sentiment once a year,
or by daily gifts of the So
called little" things that
mean so much.
The helping hand to light
en- the everyday household
chores, the steps saved by
running the seemingly unim-
portant errands, can tighten
mothers heart as we'll as her
work. She will also be CRATE
full for a cheerful acceptance
of her efforts to steer you in
the right direction, rather
than a defensive attitude.
Observance of small cour-
tesies. the THANK you's,"
'Please's." when dealing with
mother should be just as i'm
portant, if not more so, than
when associating with others.
All too often, this is not the
case.
If you are married and
living away from home.
Mothers Day may remind
you to write that letter to
mother that you have been
meaning to write for 10 these
many weeks. While mother is
happy TO receive this letter,
don't you think a scrubbed
note written at least once a
week all through the year
would mean infinitely more?
Perhaps you have written
that note or are presenting a
material gift to mother to-
day, but don't stop there.
Show your consideration
throughout the year and this
special attention will really
mean something. Otherwise
1t becomes an empty gesture.
