POLSON-Mike Kuchera's latest
decision to run as an Independent for
the Governorship last weekend was
branded as a move to "disenfranchise
the citizens of Montana who made
their choice in both political parties
in the June primaries, by the 41st
biennial convention of Montana Lum-
Der & Sawmill Workers.
In a letter ordered by the conven-
ton to be written to the former Re-
publican who ran as Democrat in
the primary, LSW council secretary
Robert Weller also asserted that:
a.. the 100000 campaign fund
for your candidacy can only come
from two possible sources:
1. "From Republicans seeking to
divide and conquer the Democratic
majority in November;
2. "From professional gamblers
and saloon keepers who have their
own selfish interest at heart and
neither yours nor the State of Mon
tana."
In closing, Weller wrote, the LBW
urges ''that you give serious recon-
sideration to your announced stand
and not become party to such an
unhoIy collision of selfish interests"

"Of course, the August session

TIGHT MONEY POLICY
DRAWS CONDEMNATION

In blistering attack upon the
"tight-money" policies of the Eisen-
hover Administration, the convention
went far beyond any comparable poll
teal document in directly endorsing
programs ito release the full poten-
tial of our American economy for
employment, production and growth"
The Administrations policy of high
interest rates will be rejected, and a
new Democratic President viii fun
shackle American enterprise and free
American labor, industrial leadership
and capital" to create abundance, the
convention pledged.
The Eisenhower programs have
failed to keep prices down and have
"given us two recessions and
added billions in unnecessary higher
interest charges, the convention said.
eve Democrats believe that our
economy can and must grow at an
average rate of per cent annually,
almost twice as fast as our average
annual rate since 1868. We pledge
ourselves to policies that will achieve
this goal without initiation"
Through the Taft-Hartley and
Landrum- Griffin Acts, the conven-
ton declared, the theoretical right of
workers to bargain collectively has
been denied by what the statement
bluntly labeled an Administration
"anti-labor policy"

"While both the House and Senate
have passed meaningful bills, under
which the federal government would
shoulder a share of the responsibility
for the education upon which democ-
racy rests, the House Rules Commit
tee has prevented any compromise
satisfactory to both bodies.
''The Senate bill includes a means
test, which would help route aid
for construction or teachers salaries
to states where it is needed most.
"The House bill, providing con-
struction aid only, spreads less money
over a longer period-thus running
less risk of a veto. The latter also
includes two incentive provisions !:
Federal funds must be matched by
local or state funds, and the federal
allotment would be reduced if a
states own spending rate dropped.
SOCIAL SECURITY
pending in the Senate is a House
passed bill making significant changes
in the Social Security Act, including
removal of the requirement that
permanently disabled persons must be
SO years old before they or their de-
pendents may receive disability pay

a plan to provide federal-state assist

Famous Golf Pro In Phoenix Open

At 8 a. m. Friday, the SUN
photographer caught Charles L..
Clifford seriously at work in the
practice area at the Phoenix
Country Club.
This quiet professional lives at
1121 West Vernon, Los Angeles,
with his wife Rose and son
Charles Jr.
Cooler than the morning air
and more precise than the layout
was this veteran golfer as he
measured every move.
Clifford who is the only Negro
in this fancy group of 149 profess
Sionals, last played in San Diego
and will go to Tucson next.
He began playing in Philadel-
phia. This is his fifth time in
Phoenix, beginning in 1852.
Our pioneer in Pro Golf was
the guest of Sgt and Mrs. Homer
R. Cross, 1926 South 10Th Street.
Clifford has 3 sponsors: Kroy-
den Golf Co. which is his chief
sponsor, US Rubber and Ballan-
tines Beer. Each has sponsored
him for 2 years.

breakdown or insanity. Interper-
sonal relations problems may
arise at school, work, club, office
or factory.
The approach of this Counsel
ing Service is not advice-giving
or persuasion. 1t is rather to sit
down for As minutes at time
with an individual and try to
understand what the problem IS
and how it may be overcome.
Sometimes this may be done at
one time; sometimes several in
terviews are required.
If it is found that the coun-
selee needs the help of further
professional resources, referrals
will be recommended. For exam
pie, if they need a psychiatrist,
they will be referred to one.
The staff of this Counseling
Service are not psychiatrists nor
psychoanalysts, nor do they pro-
pose to treat people medically.
They are pastors who have spe-
cialized in psychology and coun-
selling in College and Seminary,
and have had the experience of
individually aiding hundreds of
people in their problems.
A fee for these services will be
charged. Ordinarily it will be
$500 for the As minute interview.
However if this works hard
ship, the amount may be reduced
or set aside altogether. This de-
tail may be discussed freely be-
fore or during the first inter-
view. The minister, who gives of
his time, does not receive this
money. 1t is used for the Incl
dental expenses of maintaining
such a program. The Phoenix

the show Mrs. Nash, with a group
of dancers trained by her, gave
an inspiring tribute to the Unit
ed Nations. Her final selection
was a jazz number, which was
combination of serious and mod
ern jazz. This was an exciting
and stimulating performance.
Mrs. Nash is specialist in
modern jazz. This is not to be
confused, she says, with the bal
let. She has studied ballet in her
basic training, but she has no
desire to be ballet dancer. Her
true feeling is expressed in the
field of modern jazz, and in this
field, it is the opinion of this
reporter, that she has a rare, un-
usual talent.
In addition to her many ap-
pearances throughout the coun-
try as dancer on TV and in
night clubs, Mrs. Nash has also
been teaching modern jazz for a
period of twelve years. She. has
@been teaching in Phoenix for the
past two years. Her students have
appeared on various programs in
the valley. Their artistry is an
excellent testimony to her ability
as a teacher. She is not only a
superb artist herself, but she
also has the knack of showing
others. She has been known to
work marvels with pupils who
have never danced before.
Mrs. Nash studied dancing in
the Department of Dance at Juil-
lard School of Music, where she
won scholarship because Of her
outstanding talent. In her posses
sion are treasured letters from
the Director of the Department of
Dance at Juilliard, Miss Martha
Hill, who has never lost her in
terest in this pupil with so much
promise.
Dancing is only one of Mrs.
Nash's talents. At present she is
studying at the Kachina School
of Art, where she is taking COM
mercial art in all it's phases. 1t
is her plan to specialize in ad-
vertising art. Already she is do
ing some of this kind of work
for the SUN, and expects to do
more as she progresses along
these lines.
Vera Nash is constantly prac-
ticing both in the field of dance
and art. She has gained all she
has through constant effort and
application. She plans to continue
working hard to reach the high
goals she has set for herself.
