Such interesting letters
come to my desk that oc-
casionally I like to share
them with all Of my readers.
Here is one which is thought
provoking.
This letter is the result Of
q column I wrote about how
much q husband should help
at home with the housework
and child care. AS you will
see the following letter brings
UP an entirely different angle.
Dear Mrs. Lbwman:
II read with great interest
this evening your article
about how much husbands
should help at home. How
ever, you did not say a word
about how much husbands
should help when both hus-
band and wife are retired.
Isn't she entitled to some
leisure, too? I worked in
business for around IS years.
MY husband doesn't want
to do one single thing to
help in our small apartment.
He thinks it is a big deal if
he carries the trash out. He
spends practically all Of his
time lying on the couch or
looking at television Il have
no choice Of the programs
viewed.) He doesn't like to
have friends in or to go out
to see them.
what retirement pleasure
is there for the wife If she
still has to prepare three
meals a day and do all Of the
housework, even the dish
washing? I thought that
marriage should be on a So
so basis. Am I nuts or is he?
Must Be Boring
Anyway, my warning to
wives would be this. If he
doesn't help when the two Of
you are working, he will never
do 1t when you retire"
Well, all I can say is that
this husband must be boring
as well as exasperating. He
certainly sounds dull! Per-
haps he is in the first shock
which retirement gives many
men. However. if he doesn't
pry himself loose from the
couch and the television set
and develop some active in
terests, I am afraid he never
will recover.
I certainly agree with this
writer. If a man does not
help with the housework
when he and his wife are both
holding down outside jobs,
he probably will not do SO
happily when retirement ar
rives. He already has demon

equity by the users and with
the proposed tax, weight times dis
lance, just like trucks use in figur-
ing their tariffs
C. G. Stranahan, newly elected rep
resentative from Chouteau county,
gave a review of the history of high
way financing, and former state SEN
ator Earl Moritz, Lewistown, who
stated he didn't want to get into any
controversy filled in few spots not
covered by Stranahan.
George Schotte, Butte, reviewed
the work of interim-study groups on
highway financing that started back
in 1947 which were responsible for
much progress in highway construc-
ton in Montana, including the sue
cessful drive to pass the constitu-
tional amendment resulting in gas
tax money being ear-marked for
highways.
Schotte also told the story of
the report that finally cost $780,
600 that recommended a weight
distance tax as the only equitable
means of financing highways, by
a study group appointed by the
Republican Governor.
He said a recent study has been
made to promote highway construc-
ton by getting certain changes made
to expedite right of way purchases.
One recommendation will be that
assessed valuation be one of the fac
tors taken into consideration in pay
ments and another that revolving
fund be set up to buy options on
alternate routes.

The concluding session at the tax
conference in Bozeman at Montana
State College was moderated by Rob-
ert E. Miller, Editor of the Independ-
ent Record, Helena. Participants
were Francis Bardanouve, state rep
resentative from Blaine county !;
Ralph Miracle. Helena, secretary of
the Montana Stock Growers Associa-
ton; Lloyd Markell, Helena, research
director, Montana Education Asso-
citation, and Wesley Stearns, incoming
representative from Sanders county.
Markell presented charts showing
where the money is derived from
state lands that were put in trust
for the support of the school system,
pointing out that there are still A.
100000 acres under lease, the money
from which goes into the schools.
According to Markets. figures the
schools are getting only per cent
of the $5O,O0O,O00 school budget
from the 100000 acres of state
land under lease, the largest portion
of these areas being in grazing leases.
The income from grazing leases
amounts to less than 1 per cent of
the total per cent.
He said, eff you believe your
property taxes are too high, give
rather careful scrutiny to the state
lands to see whether the children
and the schools are getting income
consistent with preservation and
conservation of that resource"
Markell stated that in 1859 we
were leasing lands that were provid-
ing less than the taxes per acre on
private lands which meant those OPP
orators fortunate enough to have
state lands had a considerable adj |
vantage over those who did not and |
we were permitting them to operate
by paying less than the equivalent |
of taxes.

MISC Conference Told
Regents Proposal Needs Further Study

The price of education appropriate
to the times can not be had cheap.
Russell Barthell, Helena, executive
secretary to the State Board of Edu-
cation, told the Tax Symposium in
Bozeman Monday afternoon, and he
said Montana was uniquely stu
ated'' with its geographically placed
units, three private colleges and will
ingness to participate in the WITCHE
program will make it possible to dis
tribute students among them.
Barthell praised the single board
that has been used as the admins
trative unit for education in Mon
tana and suggested that the plan to
change to two boards be delayed until
further study could be made of the
situation and the success of efforts
to coordinate the 6 units could be
determined.
Barthell said costs of education
would continue to rise and we must
determine the responsibilities of gov
eminent to higher. education in the
light of our aims, goals, purposes
and aspirations.

School Reorganization and
Financing Aired AT Conference

The great proDfem anu TIRE great
need in Montana public schools
was presented from many posi-
lions at the tax conference at the
State College, and Tuesday paths to
change in line with present day abili-
ties to do things were put before the
group attending.
Russ B. Hart, Billings, businessman
and active in promoting better edu-
cation for many years, was general
chairman of the morning session on
Tuesday. of a panel that discussed
school district reorganization and the
school foundation program.
C. R. Anderson, Helena, superin-
tendent of School District Reorgani-
cation. passed out copies of bill
that will be presented to the 1861
Legislature providing for what the
committee hopes will be an orderly
and voluntary" reorganization pro-
gram.
Anderson said of the LOO school
districts in Montana over 200 do not
operate schools. The proposed legis-
lation will set up criteria for a
school district which Montana does
not have; it will lead to larger school
districts which in turn can provide
better teachers, more adequate facili-
ties, broader tax base, an increased
educational program and make it pos
sible to equalize for more efficient
use of teachers.
1t is the duty of the state to
set the educational pattern, Ander-
son said. and you can not have good
pattern of education unless it is
statewide.
The problem of handling bonded in
debtedness is still question, and he
pointed out it could be handled in
two ways, either remain a debt on
the district or turned over to the new
district.
EXPECT REAL PROGRESS BY '62
By 1862 Anderson expects that
each county will have formed some
plan and Is counties will have COM
pleted the job.

plan won't cost more money and |

FOUR WAYS TO PROVIDE
BUILDING

Fred Barrett called for long-range
planning and warned against plans
that might isolate the legislature
from control of capital expenditures.
He listed the four ways of providing
buildings for state institutions as by
mill levy, revenue bonds, federal aid
and direct appropriation of the legis-
lature. He said a study shows that
all methods have been used and the
choice has come from expediency
rather than any planning. 'sThe strug-
gle for appropriations for an insti-
tuition to just keep running is only
exceeded by the struggle for funds
for capital expenditures he said.
