Worlds Population Will

UNITED NATIONS, N. y
(CNS)-It took 100000 years to
achieve human population of 21a
billion. In the next 80 years, how
ever, another 2 billion people will
be added.
Without counting any of the
Soviet Union, Asia had more than
half (55% the worlds people in
1850. Europe, including all the
Soviet Union, had about one-fourth
(23%). The New World had about
one-eighth $3.50, split evenly be-
tween Latin and North America.
Africa has about one-twelfth (8%).
Australia, New Zealand, and the
Pacific islands have only $50 of
the worlds people, but their rate
of increase is swiftest of all-12%
in 195O-55. Other increases for the
5-year period are South America

Bulletin Deals With

BOZEMAN-A new bulletin pub
lished by the Extension Service of
Montana State College gives informa-

and how to use it for best results.
Entitled, "Weed Control Equip
ment'', the publications author is
Eugene Heikes, Extension Service
weed specialist. Copies of the bulletin
are available from county agents or
by writing the Extension Service,
Montana State College.
Since clean seed is the most i'm
portant step in weed prevention, the
publication deals first with seed
cleaning equipment and it's adjust
ment. Then follows information on
cultivation equipment, ground spray
ing equipment, hand attachments for
ground sprayers, and lastly, airplane

per month for teachers who qualify
for full retirement under the system
The previous minimum was $50. The
necessity for this increase was dis
covered when it was found that 329
retired Montana teachers were re-
ceiving monthly benefits at or near
the $50 minimum. Of that number
200 have teaching service of over 30
years. 81 have taught 25 to 30 years
and So with service of 20 to 25 years.
Retirement benefits for these veter-
an Montana teachers had never been
adjusted to the present high cost of
living.
A bill that would have created a
commission to study school district
reorganization in the state passed
the House and Senate but was vetoed
by the Governor. 1t is generally
agreed that one. of the most perplex-
ing school problems is a system of
district organization that would pro-
vide the most efficient and manage
able administrative units for our
schools. Various broad recommended
tions during the past several years
have pointed out the need for reor-
ganization, but no agency has ever
been created that was charged with
the responsibility of working out the
details of the system.
Higher education received an ap
preparation in excess of $26 million
for the operation of the various uni
versity units for the coming bien-
mum. In addition the Board of Edu
cation was empowered to act as
board of regents for the university
system. The question of having
board of regents will be settled by
the general election in 1860 when a
constitutional amendment concern
ing the establishment of an eight
member board of regents will ap-
pear on the ballot.
Generally education received
fair consideration by the assembly
and the net result should be i'm
proved financial and administrative
operations for our schools. How
ever, a true test of strong support
for public education was never
seen during the session. Commit
tee and floor amendments were
used to remove the possibility of
a recorded vote that would test the
true feelings of many of the assem-
blymen. For this reason, voting
records reveal little of the indi-
vidual members stand on vital edu-
cation issues.

Under Present Truck Tax Rates
Gus Tax Of More Than 3.5 Cents
Cannot Be Justified --MicheIs

Attempting to handle the difficult
corporation license tax law that has
brought in less every time the rates
were raised, Holtz said the Ways and
Means Committee, of which he is
a member, tried to close some of the
loopholes by eliminating the federal
income tax as a deduction on state
tax. and eliminating the salaries paid
to out of state people and deducted
on Montana returns.
Holtz said stockmen were sue
cessful in their fight against rails
ing fees on state grazing land
which are "ridiculously low.

Gunderson reviewed grain trade
bills in which GTA had an interest,
including SB 1873 which required that
grain with toxic poisoning in it be
dyed. He said if this grain gets into
an elevator the government will con-
demn it and with Food and Drug
getting tougher growers are going
to have to do more to keep contami-
mated grain out.
He mentioned the bill that was
killed that would have provided that
no warehouse receipts would be given
for grain stored on the ground be-
cause "there are no house-b broken
sparrows" and if the grain is con-
demned "who is going to be the
loser, he asked. He said when this
bill was killed Senator Mahoney in

necessary for elevators to carry in

AUTO PAYS FIVES TIMES
AS MUCH As BIG TRUCKS

Speaking about the one-cent gaso-
line tax, Michels said, owe did not
get the equity that is necessary to
Montana's highway program {.
and the automobile is already paying
approximately five times the rate
carrier trucks are in most instances.
We could not justify the one-cent
increase without establishing the
principle of equity. You can not
justify more than three and one-half
cents gas tax in Montana under pres
ent truck tax rates.
Rep. Holtz pointed out the consti-
tutional responsibility of the legisla-
tue to provide sufficient funds to
meet state expenses and said the
people who criticize the tax increases
never indicate what expenses they
would eliminate.

Cannon Sets Sights
Continued From Page One

Cannon, who served as Speaker
Pro Tenn of the 1941 Legislative AS
sembly. was first elected Lieutenant
Governor in 1948. At the end of his
first term he sought the First Dis
trict Congressional nomination to
fill the vacancy created by Rep. Mike
Mansfield running for the u. S. Sen
ate. Cannon lost the nomination to
the then Associate Justice Lee Met
calf, by 55 votes. In 1856 he again
sought and was elected to the post
he now holds.
AS legislator and as the chief Of
ficer of the State Senate, Cannon
has made an impressive record in be-
half of the people of Montana, prov
ing himself a reliable friend of both
farmer and worker when the need
arose. 1t will be recalled that in 1851
it was his tie-breaking may" vote
that stopped legislative approval of
a bill to harass farmer-owned CO.
operatives (HB 1887. In that same
session, Cannon also killed a bill
aimed at hamstringing rural electric
co-ops, when he broke another tie
with may" vote. In the late session
Cannon's faye" vote made it possible
to place on the Governors desk the
most substantial improvements in
workmen's compensation ever ap-
proved by the legislative assembly.
This bill, Sub. HB 333, was vetoed
by Republican Governor Aronson.
In reviewing work of the 1859
session, Cannon expressed the opin-
ion that Democrats by and large
'have done a good job :"

R/W MUCH CHEAPER

Germs right-of-way. For the north
or upper route this would average
$75 an acre for forty acres a mile

TO WHITEWASH A
"BUNGLED MONSTROSITY"

If Burns will listen closely to his
tape recording it will become ap-
parent that the approximately ten
million dollars that has already been
spent on the valley route, including
the $185,00O paid for the old West
ward Ho! motel, is money down the
drain. Sending good money after bad
is to be reserved for little piddling
accounts like a Governors mansion.
But to plunge thirty-four millions
to white-wash bungled ten million
is rather a monstrosity.

The MISC dean said things are
changing and will continue to change
at very rapid rate in agriculture,
with farm people decreasing in actual
numbers and even more in per cent
compared with the total population,
and becoming more and more mi
nority part of the population.
Part of the challenge of our chang
ing agriculture is the changing pat
tern of demand. To the farmer, he
said, "this means what we are able
to sell is affected by the number
of people and what they are able to
buy. He illustrated this by saying
the American "people lin totaD con-
sumo about the same amount of
wheat today as they did in 1910 i.
diet habits have shifted human
stomachs are limited we have to
make a choice, and these are shifts
we can not ignore.
At the same time consumption
of wheat is going down, the con-
sumption of other products are GO
ing up. Among the things on the
upgrade he mentioned cattle, hogs,
dairy products.
Among the "real problems" that
face agriculture, Huffman mentioned
tremendous productivity which has
gone up Enthusiastically" when farm
er can produce as much in one year
now as he did in two in 1910; larger
farms brought about by technology
cal developments and the replacement
of people with machines; and the
capital requirements which are &c
times more per man than in other
industry.
He said in spite of these problems,

clining industry.

of the qualified electors of a county
high school district petition for

commissioners shall within so days
put the question before the people
for vote.
If the voters approve, then on the
first Saturday of each April members
of the board will be elected, with the
ones elected at the first balloting
serving for staggered terms of from
one to three years. Such boards would
be constituted: four from the ele-

Elected School
Boards Measure

Legislation permitting the election
of trustees for county high schools
became law Tuesday when Gov. Aron-
son put his stamp of approval on HB
ITO by McGarvey, Barrett and Held
ing.
Introduction of HB ITO came about
as a result of the long-drawn out
fight over the administration of Mis-
soula County High School, fight
which saw the National Education
Association involved in an investiga-
ton of the school following alleged
discrimination toward a number of
faculty members by the school super
intendent backed up by the appointed
school board. MEAS investigation
bore out the charges of discrimina-
ton.
One of the teachers fired was
Robert Watt, a faculty member of
many years standing. Immediately
thereafter he ran for county super
intendent, winning both the primary
and general elections by substantial
margins. Missoula county's strong
support for Watt in effect was an
equally strong Reputation of the
earlier actions on faculty problems by
the county high school board and

Another challenge that may be

''is to improve public relations be-
cause there are many misleading
myths" about agriculture today,
among them, that agriculture is re-
sponsible for the high price of food
today.

to the fact that unemployment fig
ures are exactly equal to the num-
Der of people that have left the farms.
Even without research, he said,
productivity is going to increase,

what we have it isn't some
thing to be ashamed of &. s. it means
a lot to the entire nation and
should be applied to the world wide
