I am an 18-year-old boy
now starting my freshman
year at the University Of
Maryland. I've been playing
trumpet for about 512 years
and I'm always seeking new
ways to better myself. In
doing so I've turned to LIP
albums and the sounds OF
those who can do miracles
with three valves and about
2 feet of brass tubing.
Probably my favorite is Ray
Anthony. In reading, your
TEEN magazine I always see
ads about rock and roll fan
clubs, but never any dealing
with my particular interest.
Therefore, I am writing this
letter in the hope that I may
obtain information about
joining a Ray Anthony fan
club.

can't see how a person could

to be sentimental, not rock

Boy is a beautiful song and

HELENA-The state Monday said
its unemployment compensation fund
balance may drop below % million
dollars by June 80, 1860. This would
cause all Montana employer tax con-
tribution rates to go to 2.7 per cent.
Chairman Chadwick H. Smith of
t h e Unemployment Compensation
Commission said the trust fund re-
serves stood at $31,208,391 as of
April 80 after jobless payments of
$5,713,6 500 in the first four months
of 1859. Tax collections totaled ST.
1928 and interest on reserves
amounted to $455,787, resulting in
trust fund decline of over four
million dollars since the year started.
although reserve fund losses dur
ing the past winter are down from
last year, Smith said, "the continued
rate of fund depletion is still serious
problem as benefit costs far exceed
the tax contributions from employ
ers.'
The reserve fund had $35,27O,314
on Dec. 81, 1868, and 37,570,O04 on
April 80, 1858.
Payments in the first four months
of 1858 totaled $7,436,361.

GTA Spots isf Of 6 Feed Mills

sociation will put the first of six push
button feed mills on a 2O-acre site

The regional coop has bought the
site, and workmen will begin building
a warehouse right away. Mill con-
struction will start this fall, and coop
officials expect it to be operating
early in 1860.

economic slump TIMBER continued.
Montana was indeed fortunate to
have had the Compensation fund
from which to pour millions of dol
lars into its sick economy via the
benefits paid to unemployed workers.
The program served well its purpose"
TIMBER added.
Substitute House Bill 358, passed
by the 1859 Legislature, provided for
$500 increase per week in top bene-
fits and increased the duration from
% weeks to "a weeks. 1t also pro-
vided protection against a possible
rate increase to 2.7 per cent for all
employers by lowering the fund floor
from $2s,O00,O0O to $25,OoO,OOO.
Chairman Smith opposed this bill
vigorously and attempted to set the
program back many years by intro
duction of bills designed to reduce
benefits, thus placing an increased
burden on the general taxpayers of
Montana by. forcing unemployed
workers to seek assistance from the
Public Welfare Department. He, no
doubt, is largely responsible for the
Governors veto of Substitute House
Bill 358.

The opinion stated, "The bare as
sertion that the commissions findings
are unreasonable. unlawful and con-
fiscatory will not, without more, be
sufficient to invoke the courts juris-
diction for an Injunction.
The decision did not have too much
to do with utility law, but rather
was based on general equity law, and
the court said the company had not
made a proper showing to support
any injunction order.
The telephone company still has
the case pending in the district court
to determine the merits of the COM
mission denial of the 25 to So per

The commission denied the tele-

tensive hearings in 1857. At that

to bring in an expert witness to testi-
fly before the commission, and this

in the VOICE several years ago.
The subject should be of interest
to Montanans because for many
years Real Estate Commissioner
Albert Kruse has been carrying on
a quiet, but relentless battle to pro-
tect us from these racketeers.
Kruse has also been working on
nationwide scale with other real

his untiring efforts that Montana has
the distinction of being the first
state in the nation to pass a law which
provides for a penalty of from one
to five years in prison for advance
fee operators who are guilty of mis-
representation, or fail to disclose
pertinnt facts about their operations.
His successful efforts have re-
ceived recognition from other states
which are trying to get such laws
passed.
Mr.. Kruse is also Commissioners of
Agriculture, and it is with the De-
partment of Agriculture that Mon
tana people generally associate him,
however he spends many hours work
ing with real estate problems. In fact
he spends so many hours at the real
estate level and the problems are so
complex and time consuming he asked
the 1859 Legislature to pass a uni
form code and for an increase in the
fees paid by legitimate real estate
agents to provide the necessary per-

IIOn, but not Tor exactly the same
reasons the district judge put forth.
The decision said, an injunction
is to maintain the status quo until
the relative rights of the parties can
be determined by a trial on the
merits; that the telephone COM
pany was asking for change in the
"status quo" in asking the increase
be made effective; that the company
had made no contention it was denied

that the result and decision of the
