responsible leaders of labor, farm,
business, industrial, professional
and SportSmen'S groups to Join
with me in charting Montana'S fu-
ture.
II suggest that these groups now
prepare, in laymen's language,
proposals they believe demand
legislative action. Such work done
now will prevent the clock being
stopped at the end of THE session.
Constructive suggestions to
improve state government and its
numerous boards, bureaus and
commissions, of course, are need
ed. But these boards and COM
missions should not be subjected
to malicious criticisms and
haraSSmentS not based on fact and
experience.
We have great military installa-
tons in Montana and industries
vital to the defense of the free
world. We live in a day when the
threat of nuclear war is ever-pre-
sent.
Certainly for our present and
future security and the future
Of the children of our state the
first demand of today on us is that
we stand together" Nutter de-
clared.
"When the 1861 Legislature
meets, the antagonisms and quar-
rels Of fhe past must not be per-
mitted to intrude and prevent or
slow constructive action.
"The coming legislative session
IS of the most serious concern to
all MOntananS. We candidates for
federal, state and county offices
devoted several months each to
campaigning before the June 7
primary, and we nominees have
campaigned five months since
the primary.
"Yet in the brief so DAYS the
Legislature meets it must act on
many problems affecting the daily
and future lives of the states cit
liens.
Constructive action can only
come through harmony of pur-
pose, honest debate and elimina-
ton Of needless, petty bickering,'
Nutter said.

taxes, against increasing the tax
load.
