some rural areas, there are also one
room schools where the educational
atmosphere compares favorably with
larger schools and where the children
are being offered the basic essentials
of good education. AS always, good
teaching makes a good school.
~ wish all our citizens could have
the opportunity to see for themselves
the work our schools are doing, the
progress that has been made and the
needs that exists. Certainly there is
sound basis for reinsurance about
our educational system and for re-
newed determination to provide ade-
quate support for our growing
schools" the State Superintendent
said.
Miss Miller said that her schedule
calls for visits to schools in seven
more counties in January. Montana
has total of 1922 schools, includ-
ing 851 one-room and two-room
schools.

WASHINGTON, ID. C.-(COPE)
How to make fantastic profits out
of the pain and sufferings of sick
people is being demonstrated by a
Senate antitrust subcommittee in
vestigation of drug prices. The sub
committee, headed by Estes Kefauver
(D-Tenn.), produced figures show
ing that drugs marketed by the
Schering Co. of Bloomfield, N. j.,
were hiked as much as 1000 per
cent. The Upjohn Co. of Kalamazoo,
Mich, bought female sex hormones
for Ia cents a gram and sold them
to druggists for SIS a gram-a
10000 per cent increase.
The Justice Dept. told subcommit-
tee members that manufacturers re-
fuse to put a new drug on the mar
ket until they are certain that it will
return four times the cost of pro-
duction. And the State Dept. has COM
piled figures showing how drug man.
ufacturers are bleeding i'll u. S. citi-
zens while selling the same products
at Enthusiastically lower prices abroad.
For instance, dozen aspirin tab
lets sell for a penny apiece in Great
Britain, but for 2 cents apiece in
the U. S. In Argentina, popular
brand of SO tranquilizing pills sells
for 46 cents. The same brand costs
Americans from 1885 to $4.85. An
antibiotic costing only 81 for 25 cap
sules in France is being sold to suf-
ferers here for Sc. For Venezuelan,
100 BIZ vitamin tablets cost $2.63.
For an American, the price is $4.88.
These prices are lower overseas
even though the manufacturer pays
the added cost of shipping his prod
uct over there.

MONTANA FARMERS HELP POINT WAY
TO BETTER WORLD UNDERSTANDING

His father. who runs food shop,
was not at home, but we met his
mother, his 13-year-old sister and his
new sister-in-law, all looking very
lovely in colorful saris. We also met
his younger brother and his two older
brothers. His married brother is a
university graduate and works in a
large post office.
They seated all / of us, on chairs
and settee which they carried with
them when they fled from Pakistan.
The sweet bride served us tea from
beautiful hand painted tea service
which, surprisingly, had matching
cups enough to serve us all in one of
their many wedding gifts, her hus-
band explained.
Although they smiled and made us
feel at home, the mother, the bride,
and the sister left the conversation
entirely to the masculine members of
the family.
After taking many pictures, in
Guiding some Polaroid which we gave
to them, we returned to our hotel
with Vijay accompanying US part way.
What wonderful spirit of cooper
alton and friendship we found among
these people who have had many
hardships and heartaches in their
struggle to make a good life out of
the chaos that followed partition.

WATCH ON The POTOMAC
By ROBERT G. SPIvACK. Washington. D. C.

gent and personable Massachusetts,
Democrat, finds himself in political
difficulties as the year comes to an
end. Maybe it was the birth control
issue. or maybe it's that he looks
so young, but it has been apparent
for some time that his campaign has
been slowing down. He is still far
out front, however, among the Demo-
cratic possibilities and no one yet
seems close to overtaking him.
A recent Gallup Poll showed how
Kennedy might run against Rookie
Teller. Last July it was Kennedy,
500; Rockefeller, 37ao. September
it was Kennedy, $40; Rockefeller,
1870. In November it was Kennedy,
$50; Rockefeller, 453o. Apparently
the gap is narrowing.
None of this is too unusual for the
front-runner. 1t almost always hap
pens in the case where a candidate
gets off to fast start.
What is surprising, though, are re-
ports that something close to panic
seems TO be gripping some of Ken
nedy's friends. They are starting to
act as if their candidate is being
prosecuted" because of his religion.
1t is not hard to understand how
they feel, because there are many
signs that anti-Catholic bigotry has
not died down in this country as much
as some people have hoped
The most disturbing story | have
seen comes from Earl Mazo of THE
NEW YORK HERALD TRIBUNE,
who has excellent sources of informa-
tion inside the Kennedy camp. Mazo
reports that Kennedy cautioned
Democratic leaders that if he is de-
MED the presidential nomination be-
cause he is Roman Catholic. it could
damage the party"
That, of course, sounds pretty close
to being threat. / assume it is cor
rectly reported since | have heard
similar comments from others in the
Kennedy organization.
It's hard to know how much weight
to give the religious tissue. But it
should be noted that major opposition
to Kennedy is coming from powerful
Catholic Democratic leaders: Gov.
David Lawrence of Pennsylvania.
Gov. Mike Disable of Ohio and maybe
Gov. Pat Brown of California. who
apparently has ambitions of his own.
In a month or two Kennedy may
find he is out of the race, or he may
get his second wind and be in a
stronger position than ever. The first
thing he has to learn, though, is to
keep calm when the political weather
gets stormy.

State Supt. Completes First Part
Of Statewide Tour of Schools

HELENA-Superintendent of Pub
lie Instruction Harriet Miller has
completed the first part of state
wide tour of Montana schools. Miss
Miller said that since September she
has visited 226 schools, travelling
more than 10000 miles in IA Mon
tana counties. Included in the school
visits were 139 rural schools, as we'll
as the schools in 81 of the larger
communities and towns in the coun-
ties visited.
From my observations | think
Montanans can be justly proud of
their Schools" Miss Miller said.
"While there always will be room for
Improvement, and greater needs in
some areas than in others, in general
our schools are achieving their pur-
pose of providing good education for
each individual child.
81 have been especially pleased to
note the progress that many schools
are making in improving curriculum,
and the tremendous interest in i'm
proving school libraries. These are
sound indications that the school pro-
gram is headed in the right direction.
"Where progress is slow, the chief
problems are lack of teachers with
adequate training and lack of essen
tial teaching tools. While problems
like these are more pronounced in
tires, administered prices, antitrust
violations, and planted ads on TV
and radio programs.
Meanwhile, the Big Business Adj
and its press and politi-
cal cronies go about squawking that
wage increases are "inflationary"
But not a single peep comes from
them about the inflationary effect
of rigging prices as high as the traffic
will bear.

Student Loans

Student loans made possible by the
National Defense Education Act of
1858 are greatly in demand. Arthur
S. Flemming, Secretary of Health,
Education and Welfare, reports that
more than 10000 requests, averag-
ing $40O each, are anticipated by the
1872 colleges cooperating in the
loan program. The loans include a
forgiveness feature up to 500 for
borrowers who subsequently teach
full time for five years or more. Stu
dents apply directly to the institution
of their choice; the college then must
add 81 for every SO made available
by the federal government.-NE

We haven't yet been able to trace
down the typewriter we had shipped
over here. We've had our turn at the
typewriter provided for the group
so won't get another turn for some
time. We are kept busy from 6:45
am. until 11:00 pm, so find little
time to write about this wonderful
experience.
Overhead golden chip of moon
looks familiar. We think of night

A confused group of Americans

POSTSCRIPT TO THE
EISENHOWER TOUR

EISENHOWER TOUR
The reports coming bach to Wash
ington indicate that President Eisen-
hower's tour has been a great success,
not because he has negotiated any
settlements, but simply because
Asians have seen a different "face"
of America.
The Indian government is reported
particularly pleased by what the Pres
ident had to say and by the fact that
he appeared at moment when the
Red Chinese seem almost intent on
destroying the one great democracy
in Asia. Nehru and Eisenhower have
hit it off better than anyone expected.
The President is said to have an al
most reverent attitude towards the
Indian leader, as if he were modern
saint, or in the tradition of Gandhi.
And Nehru reciprocates these feel
ings.
It's pleasant to know that some
where in the world at this holiday
season there is some measure of good
cheer-and something to cheer about.
Relations between India and America
have never been better. Ironic isn't
it, what changes there have been in
foreign relations since the passing
of John Foster Dulles?
PRESIDENTIAL POLITICS
The one question that keeps pop
ping up here with increasing fire.
quency is what role Sen. Estes Ke-
fauver will play at the Los Angeles
Democratic convention. Here again
is nice piece of irony. Those very
politicians who committed everything
short of mayhem to keep the Ten
nessee senator off the ticket in 1852
and 1856 now can't do enough for
him these days.
That's true of Lyndon Johnson,
Hubert Humphrey and Stuart Sy-
mington. Sen. John Kennedy may be
a bit aloof, but the others are snug
Cling up to old Estes as if he were
a long lost brother.
1t is not that they think he is going
to run for President again, although
might happen between now
and next July. 1t is simply recognition
that Kefauver will probably know
more of the delegates to next years
convention than any of the men in
the race. A good word from him
might work miracles. And he might
also exercise an important veto power
simply by frowning at one of the
aspirants.
