Better housekeeping Proposed
For Legislature BY Interim Body

Monday the Legislative Council
turned from the revision of the laws
governing, the rest of Montana to
provide some suggestions for the Leg
islature on how it may improve gov
erning itself.
First the Legislature should be
more careful how it spends its own
money. A committee should be set
up to handle the capital expenditures
leaving only the miscellaneous items
to be paid for by the Sergeants-at-
Arms of the House and Senate. Pres
emily the controllers office antici-
pates the needs and gets the Board
of Examiners approved before the
session begins. The Sergeants-at-
Arms then authorizes additional ex-
penditures. Past sessions have brought
forth rumors of waste.
To become more efficient body
within itself the committee system
needs revamping. Following the lead
of Alaska which has only 20 COM
mittees. the Montana Legislative
committees would be cut from the
present ~ to 80. Congress has only
so committees.
An example of how this would be
accomplished would be the establish
ment of the resources committee.
Contained in this committee would
be the work done by the present Irri-
cation and Water Conservation Com
mittee, the Committee on Mines and
Mining, Oil Leasing, Public Lands,
Fish & Game. Not only would the
work be speeded up but could save
the need, or rebuilding the Capitol
to find the necessary space for all
the meetings.
This would give each member two
committee assignments instead of the
present five. In the House each COM
mittee would have IL members, and
in the Senate seven.
Turning from the Legislature the
Council has requested that the staff |
get letters from the county commits |
sioners and assessors and the Board |
of Equalization as to what each of |
them think their duties are and their
to one another.
No work has been done on the
school foundation program by the

Grass Conservation Districts
Administer 10 Million Acres

R. L. Shaw and Lee Shaw, Mosby,
met with the Grass Conservation Com
mission Monday to see what could be
done to relieve their range shortage.
The Shaws have been petitioning the
Mosby grass conservation board for
an additional one and one half sec
lions because of the water shortage
in the Musselshell River area. With
the additional acreage they would
be able to maintain their herd at the
present level and not be forced to sell
at loss.
The Grass Conservation Commits
sion is required by law to meet in
Helena once year. Other meetings
can be held in any of the 33 districts.
The commission advised the Shaws
and their attorneys to get a written
rejection of their proposal and then
come back to the commission.
The allotments and even the men,
bership of the local districts are
closely and jealousy guarded. The
districts control 100000 acres CO.
operatively upon which forage is OBJ
tanned for 100000 animal units.
The five-man boards prevent the
range wars which ragged between the
cattle and sheep men in earlier days.

Council, but it is understood that the
Governors Committee on Education
is drafting a revision to fit the re-
districting provisions which are eff
feetive when the local boards refuse
to reorganize. The way the founda-
ton program is operating now the
smaller the enrolment the more
money they get. The move by the
Governors Committee is to estab-
lish high schools with at least 200
enrolment.
The Council refuses to go into
competition in the research field with
the stockgrowers association. The
detail of fact behind the proposed
grazing fee law. When the stock
growers want to pay for someone to
come out and research with the coun-
Gil staff, okay. But until they are
paying researchers they will have to
accept the news stories as their facts.
The final form of the research on
this matter will be printed for the
Legislature.
The Council also refused to go
into the matter of the firing of Will
liam May as director of the State
Board of Pardons. In response to
Missoula newsman's letter however
they say they are interested and
concerned. May was fired from the
parole system head because of pres
sure from forty sheriffs.
Fortunately the Council held in
allegiance their propaganda drive for
the Regents amendment to the Con-
stitution because the Supreme Court
threw it out the window two days
ago after MICS June meeting con-

Kennedy. Johnson
Continued From Page One)

Finally Symington's study allowed
all the claims made by Kennedy of
| HRS potential strength in Montana,
New York and Pennsylvania. His peak
vote was still found to be 102 " short
of the victory margin needed.
What makes the projection of
these figures all so fascinating is
that it now looks as if Symington
might become very powerful figure
at the conventional he becomes
convinced that he cannot become the
nominee himself. He may have over
200 votes with which to bargain.
But Gov. David Lawrence of Penn
sylvania and Gov. Pat Brown of
California could become equally inn
portant. Between them they have
1852 votes. If they were to throw in
with Kennedy he might make it on
the first ballot. If they hold back for
more than two ballots, it's possible
that Kennedy will be finished.
Generally it's agreed he has to
make it first, fast, or not at all.
Since it seems unlikely that Law
renee and Brown would go for John
son, even if Kennedy agreed to be
his running-mate, that raises ques-
ton as to which way they would
jump. Symington, of course, is hope
full. NV own guess is that they will
turn to Stevenson. He still remains
the No. 1 Democratic favorite in
most of the polls of public opinion,
if not yet of delegate opinion.

Legislatures to liberalize the pro-
cesses used by the boards to main
tain the present dynasties.
R. L. Shaw told the commission,
cts all right for them to feather
their nests but something should be
done when they take the eggs and
everything"
Lewis G. Archambeault, Fort Peck,
was reelected chairman of the COM
mission for the ninth time. Other
members of the commission are Cleon
Graves, Roundup; William J. Cotter,
Malta; Leo Lund, Marsh, and Clyde
Sandon, Ekalaka. The commission is
located in Lewistown with Clyde
Sandon as vice president and Mons
L. Tiegen as secretary.
The commission gave some advice
to hunters and fishermen if they
would avoid the Texas style of "hunt-
ing clubs where they must pay the
landowner for entry on the land. Ask
permission to hunt and landowners
might even have information where
the game is. Unknown gunner sneak
ing around their property makes them
nervous. The old range wars will look
like picnics if very many more ranch
ers are fired upon by hunters.-FS

DRIVE HIT
A recent drive at Montana State
College to secure percentage contri-
buttons from personnel for college
drew sharp condemna-
ton from the AFL-CIO. The resolu-
ton said:
SIN adherence TO adequate and
just standard of fair labor prac-
tices for which the AFL-CIO ha.
long been known, be it therefore
resolved: That the Montana State
AFL-CIO opposes any attempt or
drive by any state institution or
office to solicit donations, gifts,
pledges or portions of salaries from
employees of the institution or of
flee in way which would provide

make the results of such solicita-
ton a condition of employment"

ute health hazard;
For increased financial support in

ce;
For state legislation making it a

'etween labor and management.

ram for:
A fair minimum wage law.

DEMOS WON'T NAME
CHAIRMAN NEXT WEEK

While the Republicans proceeded
to formulate their platform and name
a state chairman, the Democrats will
abstain from these until after the
national convention. When the date
is set only the Democrats running
for office will be allowed to draft
the Montana Democratic platform
which will be more or less in con-
formity with the national platform
at least that is the hope of the pres
emit Montana Chairman Hugh Lemire.
This means that Lewis and Clark's
representation at the later platform
convention, which will also elect the
new chairman, will be made up of
the candidates for Legislature: Tom
Judge, Joe Reber, George McGaffick
and the candidate for the Senate,
Harry Byrne.
That's supposed to be the way it's
going to go but you can never tell
when Democrats go into convention.
The 'liberals" remained in firm
control of the county with the re-
election of Louis Forsel as chairman;
Juliamae Wine, vice chairman; and
Gloria Smith, secretary.
Gladys Carpenter and Oscar Baar-
son were elected congressional COM
and woman. They are ac-
tivated only in the event of the death
