WHY THAT FLAT LOOK
Not long ago a reader asked
a question we hear frequent
ly: Why do many Of his
stereo pictures seem to lack
the three-dimensional quail
ity that stereo is supposed to
impart. =
Our answer ran something
like this: Some scenes do
not readily lend themselves
to stereo photography. For
example, a fiat expanse Of
water or an urbroken area
Of lawn makes bad stereo
subjects because Of an in
sufiiciency of obviously diff
ferent planes.
Always. before making Q
stereo shot, check to see that
this condition doesn't exist.
You can cure it yourself by
introducing a figure or other
object in the foreground of
your composition. Sometimes
a change Of camera position
will do the trick. Try always
to include trees, shrubs.
houses, etc., to insure a num-
Der Of planes in the scene.

Contributing Writer

A few weeks ago we de-
scribed some Of the new
equipment for stills and
motion pictures. Today we
feature two items Of inter-
est for those who go in for
slide projection. Both Bell
& Howell and Kodak have
recently introduced slide pro-
jectors that would grace any
photographers home.
From Bell & Howell comes
q machine. the Focus Tronic
Explorer, that can focus as
well as change slides by re-
mote control.
With a press of the re-
mote control button the lens
moves IN or out as needed for
sharp focusing with no
"coaSting" between the re-
lease Of the control and the
desire d sharpness on the
screen. This, as all who have
jumped up to focus and re-
focus as slides were changed,
is a feature long needed by
aflcionados Of the photo slide.

Also contained in this same
focusing unit is a beam of
light that the projectionist
can use to point out details
on the screen. He can also
change his slides in forward
or reverse sequence with the
remote control.
Film Editing Guide
The machine has a new
film editing guide to make it
easy for you to put in or take
out slides. When the lid
above the slide changing
mechanism is raised, an
automatic safety lock pre-
vents tripping by timer or

Slides can then be slipped
quickly in and out Of the

lid the safety lock is released

tinue by timer or remote.

Budget requests, being prepared

Most recent cost estimate is $2.2
million. Benefits are calculated to ex-
coed costs in the ratio of 1.9 to l.
After preliminary studies, the Bureau
said the Unit showed sufficient
promise of feasibility and economic
justification to warrant more de-
tailed study and future construction
if the findings are affirmed" The Blu
reau has estimated that necessary
studies and planning would take about
100000 and two years to complete.

From Phillips County News

Conrad Twedt, vice president OF
the First Security Bank of Glasgow
and member of the 5-man panel OF
tax experts recently appearing in
Malta, has made an extensive study of
the problems confronting local school
boards. He is especially disturbed
about the trend of unionizing the
teaching staff to a point where local
school board members and admins
traitors are almost powerless to do
what they want to do to correct bad
situations.
In his talk, Twedt blamed part of
the trouble on the Montana Education
Association, which, he says, through
their secretary and his effective lobby,
has so increased the demands for
more money to the point where the
state, unable to meet the increased
cost, has had to pass the responsibility
back to local school boards. They in
turn, have been forced to levy tax
on all property to make up the de-
ficiency. Twedt says that mo other
group (MEA) has contributed as
much to the present high level of
property tax as has the secretary and
his group"
In his prepared talk, Twedt said:

how it is possible for the Montana

Miners, Families,
Need Your Help

Just across the Montana line III
the Couer d'Alene mining regior
are approximately $500 workers
and their families who are badly in
need of assistance.
They're the miners who have been
ON strike against the Bunker Hill
and American Smelling and Rein
ing companies since May in pro-
longed effort to secure decent
contract. The bosses are insisting
on a settlement considerably SUBJ
standard to the industry-wide pat
term established some months ago
by Mine-MilI and other unions with
Anaconda, Kennecott, Phelps
Dodge and other ma or non-ferrous
operations.
The north Idaho miners struggle
against the two companies is SINH
lar to the many months-long fight
of Montana miners and smeltermen
to obtain a decent settlement with
Anaconda Company. As in Mon
tana, the absentee-controlled COM
panies are holding out for wages
inferior to those in the balance of
the industry, and for union-busting
contract provisions.
Implications of the sub-standard
settlement demanded by the Occur
d'Alene mine operators have many
other unions in Idaho worried. Min
ing is basic Idaho industry, and
if miners are compelled to settle
for less than workers in other states
in the same industry, sub-standard
settlements may become pattern
that all Idaho labor may face in
the future.
Contributions of money and pro-
duce for suffering families are be-
ing solicited by the Idaho Citizens
Relief Committee, Box 594, Boise,
Idaho. Members of the committee
include attorneys, editors, business
men, and leaders of both political
parties.
