A local humorist walked into one
of my favorite downtown pubs few
weeks ago and placed black box
on the bar. On the top of the box
was a toggle switch. The lever was
flipped and the box began to rumble
and shake. A hand came out of the
top of the box and flipped the switch
off, disappearing back into the box

Engineer Ed Miller has started an
entirely new division in the Highway
Department called the Data Process

four engineers from the bridge de-

and the office engineers. This "brain
trust" which has been training with
IBM for three months. backed by the
'bevy of babes in the back room" of
brown pentagon's basement, will tend
the $50. (What the "babes" are for
is unclear. IBM's manual says $3.50"

the robots starting button.) The $50
is three-unit device which replaces
two other units in the Highways IBM

One of the units provides the direct

WHAT DO YOU THINK?
By GRETCHEN G. BILLINGS

can only be cured, he says, if the
working people 'take less".
He would build fortress Mon
tana" within which we would ignore
the progress of the nation, apparent
ly. He insists part of our salvation
rests in buying Montana made prod
ucts-produced with labor that "must
take the responsibility for keeping
costs low enough to sell the prod
ucts''. He ignores the fact we are
never going to be self-sufficient
within our own domain and must buy
products of other states to survive.
But then we might buy Volks-
wagon, like he did, and spend the
money we save on other things.
These things must be done so in
vestors in industry can be promised
at least the same rate of return they
can get elsewhere, Mr.. Sowerwine
believes.
Even if we attract industries re-
quiring higher skill than others, if
you want to live in Montana you must
take less, says Mf. S.
He pointed out that Montana has
not kept up with the national or re-
gional averages in progress
average per capita income has been
decreasing since 1953-but we had
managed to show some increase until
about 1858. Now while the rest of
The people's voice., 1959-11-27

the country is showing advancement
Montana pulls big fat zero.
This philosophy scares me to death.
Progress for industry and capital, but
for human beings depreciation,
retrenchment.
This certainly isn't what I envision
for Montana! If we need to do some
thing land obviously we do) to at
tract industry why don't we do some
thing with our God-given natural re-
sources that will bring a better stand
ard of living to our people?
Within our boundaries we have one
of natures finest gifts-natural dam
sites-with the worlds greatest po-
tential- -water-ready to be tanned
and harnessed for the everlasting
benefit of mankind.
The trouble with some people is
that they want to put harnesses in
the wrong places.
If we want to give industry fl
nancial inducement to come to Mon
tana. which is noble and necessary
goal. we have the means to do it
without reverting to the methods of
King Ptolemy.
While opining the decline of our
mineral resources, Sowerwine made
no mention of the resource that is
our only hope of economic salvation
the resource that every hour
flows to the sea and is lost to us.
The only harnessing he can offer
is around the shoulders of the wage
earners.
This is planning? Maybe, but for
whom?
The people's voice., 1959-11-27

the frightful trio is the familiar card
punch machine which stands four
feet high by two feet deep and five
feet long.
Two functions will be performed
by the $50. AS a bookkeeper it will
figure a 1,500-man payroll in eight
hours. The gross pay with the deduc-
tions of taxes and retirements will
show up on punched cards which
must be tabulated elsewhere.
The other function is to calculate
designs for bridges and roads. Accord
ing to Miller the economies gained in
road design costs will pay the ma
chimes rental. "The $50 will go
through the line and grade of one
mile of road section design in eight
minutes. 1t will also be used to bal
ance the cut and fill design and cal
culate the alignments to save on the
actual construction costs.
To get some idea of electronic
speed the $50 can add one plus one
plus one etc. to 100000 in one min
ute. Fast, but how stupid can you
get.
1t can also get solution to a set
of six simultaneous linear equations
with six unknowns.
And the $50 can get a correlation
on set of 100 observations on four
variables-whatever they are.
This may sound impressive but a
skilled lobbyist at the legislature can
keep track of, over seven hundred
bills with the variable solons to deal
with and tell you the chances of any
one of the bills and it's location and
keep it up for sixty days, or more,
without cracking without the
air conditioning delicate little $50
must have to perform it's duties.
The Highway Department could
get lobbyist to do this work for
them and he would be lot cheaper
than the four thousand dollars per
month rental which will be paid IBM.
A lobbyist in the pentagon might be
all right with the "brain trust" but
could we trust him with the "back-
'oom babes"?-F. S.
