Fertilization of shade trees:
Fertilizing of shade trees is done
in late fall or early spring, so
now is the time to get prepared.
Small trees should be fortified
yearly while larger trees need
fertilizing only every 2 or 3
years.
A complete fertilizer high in
nitrogen is best, such as 1864.
The rate of application is gene
rally based on the diameter of
the trunk measured at a point
4 feet above the ground. The
rate of application for trees 6
inches or more in diameter is
2 to 4 pounds of fertilizer for
each inch of trunk diameter.
Trees 6 inches or less in d.
ameter are fortified at the
rate OF l to z pounds to each
inch.
The method of fertilizing
large trees is to make holes
under the tree, beginning about
Q feet from the trunk of the
tree and extending out beyond
the spread of the branches 2 or
3 feet. Make the holes with a
crowbar, about 18 to "a inches
apart and IS to 10 inches deep.
The fertilizer is put in the holes
which are then filled with loose
fertile soil.

Russia Pushes
12-MiIe Limit

GENEVA, Mar. % (AP).-
Russia formally proposed today
that the s4-nation law of the
sea conference establish a max.
imum l2-mile limit for terri
torial waters and coastal fish,
ing rights as universal prin-
ciple OF law.
The proposal by Russia's
Grigori I. Tunkin on the fourth
day of the maritime meeting
would grant every state the
right TO push its sea borders
out to IL miles.
Countries preferring a small
er territorial limit still would
be entitled to exclusive fishing
rights in the waters between
4 the territorial sea and the l2-
mile limit.
Mr.. Tunkin introduced the
same proposal at the 1858 sea
law conference, which failed to
reach agreement on the terri
torial sea and coastal fishing
fights.
Mexico's Alfonso Garcia Ro-
bleS introduced a similar pro-
posal for a maximum l2-mile
limit which would. however,
grant coastal states exclusive
fishing rights up to IS miles
offshore.
Mr.. Robles said the 12-mile
limit is based on what may be
called the customary rule of
international law" He said
this is the "only existing rule
on the subject. since. as is
known. the breadth of the ter
ritorial sea has never been fixed
in a contractual international
instrument"
The United States and Brit
ain are urging a six-mile limit
for territorial waters, with ex-
elusive fishing rights extending
out six more miles. Both ma
tions now recognize only the
traditional three-mile limit for
both territorial and fishing
rights.

Rackets Committee hearings.
Senator Kennedy is a men,
Der of the committee and his
brother. Robert F. Kennedy, is
its former chief counsel.
Battle Line, campaign organ
of the Republican National
Committee, named the two Of
f1cials as Mayor Walter Jeorse
Of East Chicago. Ind, and JUS
tice of the Peace Jack Slaboski
Of Lake County, Ind.
There was no immediate
comment from either Kennedy.
Battle Line pointed to testi-
mony in Rackets Committee
hearings In June. 1859, that
"Mr. Walter Jerose (sic), the
Mayor of East Chicago" had
accepted gifts worth more than
ls2,500 from the Lakeside Spe-
cialty Co., which allegedly held
monopoly control over East
Chicago pinball machines.
Battle Line said this was q
misSpelling Of Mr.. Jeorse's
name. 1t previously had raised
a question as to why the COM
mittee did not quiz Mr.. Slabo-
ski. who had been named as a
silent partner in a pinball op-
Grafton, and why Mr.. Slaboski
showed up in a group picture
with Senator Kennedy later.
Battle Line said Mr.. Jeorse
has been identified as another
who posed for the group picture
with Senator Kennedy at a
Democratic banquet in Lake
County.
Pierre Salinger. press secre-
tary to Senator Kennedy, said
last week the Senator had never
met Mr.. Slaboski, and that
candidates have little control
over who poses with them in
group pictures.
Noting. this. Battle Line said /:
Since Mayor Jeorse was
host at the Kennedy dinner
the Senator's office in this in
stance will find it difficult to
use the lame excuse it issued
about Slaboski-that the SEN
ator never met the man who
posed with him for a picture. !"

they don't want to pay any benefits
They have stated many times they
want the fund "sound" to protect the
"steady worker, who, after all, will
have no need of the fund. The extent
of the restrictions they would put on
benefits is unlimited They would
pay none.
Benefits should be extended even
further across the economy than they
are if a man can not find job
he should receive benefits.
Therefore. the VOICE can not
agree, with CITIZEN and Republican
basic philosophy. We are in a de-
preston and must pay benefits. There
are not enough jobs so naturally the
fund is being used. If the philosophy
of unemployment compensation is
right, use of the fund is right.
The VOICE still contends that if
employers had not robbed the fund
over the past 13 years there would
be money to cover this or any emerg-
ency. If the economy does not pick
up, and it doesn't look as if it will
very soon, the fund will really be
depleted and what should be in the
fund to cover this situation is in the
pockets of employers.
Below is an extension Of the chart
published in the CITIZEN. Their fig
ures are light-faced type.
Please note that the figures in
black face type are our extension of
their presentation. The black face
type shows that in 1862 employers
paid over million dollars in con-
tributions on 1886 million payroll,
then go down to 1855 and see where,
with comparable taxable payroll,
they paid little over ~ million
dollars.
But even better figure on what
employers have done to the fund is
to look at the taxable payroll in 1947,
which was $193,565, 442 and the total
contribution was $685.
397 Then look at the taxable payroll
IN 1857 which was S317,523,534 and
see that the employer contribution
vas $3,718,938.

there has been decline in range
use due to deterioration of the fed

"The rapid growth of our popula-

steps to conserve our natural re-
sources. Proper management of hun

land is important not only for live

also for watershed protection. Con-

The latest issue of the Chamber
of Commerce publication, MONTANA
CITIZEN, produced figures purport
ing to show that it is not legislation
dating back to the 1858 Republican
Legislature that is responsible for de-
pletion of the Unemployment Com
pensation fund.
The contention of the VOICE is
that the question concerning unem-
ployment compensation is basic
the fund is a reservoir, to be filled
in time of employment and to be
used in times of depression and eco
nomic weakness. We have to expect
when the economy is weak the fund
will be drained. Therefore it is the
responsibility of employers to see
the fund is kept strong to meet those
needs.
There is little disagreement that
the economy is weak that unem-
ployment is high :. that people are
finding it necessary to draw benefits.
If the fund is getting too low it
is because somebody goofed-and it
is our contention this happened in
1947 and 1853 when employer drives
weakened the fund so it is not able
to meet the demands of the Republi-
can recession.
We believe anyone willing and able
to work who can not find job should
receive benefits if the law is to serve
any useful purpose. If jobs are avail
able no NC administration should
pay benefits to anyone who will not
work.
Employers have saved As million
dollars in the last 13 years, and the
fund has lost million more in inter
est that would have accrued on the
as million.
1t began with the 1947 experience
rating put into effect by Republi-
can legislature. What the 1853 Re-
publican legislature did would have
been more clearly shown had the
CITIZEN carried it's figures a little
further.

to prevent starvation in Shoshone
county. the main residence of $500

Tuesday, October IL Daugherty and
100 heads of families met with the
Shoshone County Commissioners and
demanded that the Commissioners de-
clare an emergency situation In the
area and take up their responsibility
of food. fuel and drugs and other
items necessary to the lives and health
of the people involved. The Union
has had the full burden of relief these
past five months and neither the
county or the state has given one cent
of relief or surplus food to the nearly
$4,000 people affected. In addition,
federal school lunches have been
stopped in one school district affect
ing 1900 children.

Agriculture and the Dept. of Health
& Welfare in Washington have avail
able food for the asking by the state
authorities to relieve the crisis in the

king, State Supt., had told them that
the state had no additional funds to
appropriate for lunches and expressed
the belief that the County Commits
sioners had the responsibility to con-
tribute the $78 a day necessary to
reinstate the lunches for the 1900
children affected.
Occur d'Alene Mine-Mill Union also
announced Tuesday that dozens of
string families have stated by next
week. The winter, in this part of
Idaho, is extremely severe and par
ents are apprehensive about their
children going to school in inadequate
clothes and overshoes and without
decent food. The Union also an
nounced that if no action is taken that
they plan to picket the State Capitol
in Boise at the beginning of the week.
Contributions of cash, food and
clothing are urgently needed. These
may be sent to Idaho Citizens Relief
Committee, Box 594, Boise.
Montanans well remember that in
the winter of 1888, with thou
sands of miners and Indian citi-
zens unemployed because of no
fault, of their own, Gov. Aronson
stubbornly refused to authorize dis
tribution of federal surplus foods
in Montana. 1t wasn't until Aron-
son left the state in late February
1858 and Lieut.. Governor Paul
Cannon was in the chair that a re-
quest was sent 20 USDA asking
for the commodities. In the two
and one half years since that
prompt action by Cannon to help
alleviate suffering, more than
$75O,OOO worth of surplus foods
have been distributed in Montana
to some $4,000 needy Montanans.
