as a result of Tuesdays general
election which saw a candidate of
their party win the mayorship for
the first time in 40 years.

catcher was elected by 754-vote
margin. A former grocer and long
time Democrat, Clavedatcher is the
SON of one of the early Midland
Empire Demos, Mrs. Anna Clave-
catcher, elector for Harry Truman

Another local election of some
statewide interest occurred in Chi

1--WE committee 1OllOWlnR a Qay-lOng
meeting in Helena, last Friday.
The committee, representing min
ers and smeltermen from Butte, Ana
conda, Great Falls, East Helena, Deer
Lodge, Philipsburg and Melrose, met
to review actions of the last legisla-
ture and what accomplishments had
been made for their members. The
text of the committees prepared
statement, released after the meet
ing, follows.
''The recent Montana legislative
session achieved for the first time an
occupational disease law, significant
changes of benefit to small business
and the unemployed in the unem-
ployment compensation act, outstand-
ing increases for injured workmen's
compensation and an increase to sill
cotics receiving state welfare pay
ments. Although the Democrats were
in the majority in both the House and
the Senate. some Democrats saw fit
to ignore their party's labor platform
and Montana workers did not receive
as much consideration by the legis-
lators as they should have. In spite
of opposition by the Republican mi
nority and detection by some Demo-
Gratis, Montana's workers received
more consideration than in previous
sessions.
THAT THE PUBLIC MAY KNOW
However, possibility for needed inn
provement of laws effecting workers
was greatly reduced by some of the
Governors appointed administrators.
Montana citizens and taxpayers need
to know the facts and the resulting
effect on the people of Montana.
"The Governors appointees. Chad
wick Smith, chairman of the Unem-
ployment Compensation Commission,
and Robert Swanberg, chairman of
the Industrial Accident Board, tried
hard during the session to confuse
the issues and prevent necessary i'm
provement in unemployment and |
workmen's compensation law.

of preventing adequate benefits to

Land Commissioner Lou Bretzke
has been ordered to the area imme-

Col. Beverly E. Carmack has lined
up four building contractors to bid
on the impending sale of State land,
that they might sell or rent "du-

and construction workers who will
comprise sixty to sixty-five per cent
of the persons stationed at the base.
See Editorial, Page 2
Sale of two and a half sections of
land that the state now receives token
rental from, according to Bretzke,
will probably bring an estimated
100000.

of any Montana city for 100000.
