Book ReUieW--
THE PROPHET by Kahlil Gilbran,
published by Alfred A. Knopf,
New York for $3.50

My old friend The Prophet wa:
reprinted for the sixty-second time
in 1860. May introduce him to yor
and give the highest of references
Any time you spend with him will be
rewarding and you may trust hin
with your very SOUL
Stand with him on the shore OF
Orphalese for a way to leave his frag-
ments of spirit which have scattered
in the streets and the children of his
longing that walk naked among the
hills.
Listen to the insights as he adj
dresses his friends upon the best of
his knowing about the words which
have impressed themselves upon US.
Upon no other sea shore can you find
so much wisdom mulled by compass
sion-except perhaps in Ecclesiates.
The little treatises on Love, Mar
riage, Children, Giving, Eating and
Drinking, Work, Joy and Sorrow,
Houses, Clothes, Buying and Selling,
Crime and Punishment, Laws, Free
dom, Reason and Passion, Pain, Self
knowledge, Teaching, Friendship,
Talking, Time, Good and Evil, Pray
err, Pleasure, Beauty, Religion and
Death will catch you up short.
You will marvel at how much you
really know about life and will again
be appreciative of English in written
form.
Kahlil GiIbran {Iss3-1es14 was
born in Lebanon and was considered
the genius of his age by millions of
Arabs. In the United States where he
lived the last 20 years of his life,
he gained respect for his mystic
paintings and for his work in poetry
and philosophy.
His mastery of prose, the form
of writing used by every day people,
newspapers and God, would give indi-
cation Of his mystic philosophy but
THE PROPHET stands as work in
itself. s3 aaa itt44I
May you also become a friend of
THE PROPHET in that you may be
prevented from going to the wailing
wall and bloody your fists while cry
ing out, vanity, vanity! All is van
ity".

and outlined how, ever Since the
law was passed in 1887, employer
groups have been trying (and succeed,
ing to considerable degree) in weak
ening the jobless insurance compen-
sation program. This started out
when the 1911 legislature put cell
ing of $4,000 ON amount of an en-
ployee's earnings subject to insur-
ance premium. Six years later, a
GOP-controlled legislature instituted
the experience rating method of
determining the rate of premium an
employer should pay. With good times
continuing, the slash in premium per-
centages per dollar of wages paid did
not have an immediate effect on the
fund. In 1858 further weakening
changes were made-by another COP
controlled legislature. The fund be-
gan to stagnate, and, when the recess
sions of recent years substantially
increased the number of jobless, the
downslide began.

DON'T FORGET THAT CHEAP
POWER FACTOR

Montanans generally greeted the
ALLEGATION of block of power by
Bonneville to Webb & Knapp foi
operation of a proposed multi-millior
steel plant in Anaconda with de.
light. The plant, during construction
would give the Smelter City building
industry healthy shot in the arm
Afterwards, there would be a sub.
stantial increase in jobs, and more
money going through the cash regis
tiers of Anaconda merchants.
Two major factors entered into
the decision of W&K to consider To-
eating in Montana: 1. A 40-million
ton backlog of Anaconda Company
Stag containing considerable recover
able iron ore; 2. The ALLEGATION of
10000 kilowatts of low cost power
by BPA to make the proposed opera
ton financially feasible.S Montana
Powers proposed price to W&K was
much too high for a profitable opera
ton.
A similar basic industry might be
persuaded to come to the Helena
area IT more friendly federal adj
ministration would free Canyon Ferry
from the chains MPCo. now has
forged around that 10000 kilowatts
thanks to the largess of Eisen-
hower-Nixon & Co., a few years ago.
That 10000 XIV is sufficient to build
at least a couple of hundred new
well-paying jobs in the Helena area
something few businessmen would
consider other than desirable.
Same thing goes once giant Para
disc Dam is built in Sanders county
and pours forth more than a million
kilowatts of low cost power. Few
places in Montana are more chronic
ally depressed than the Lake-Sanders
area where the huge multiple-purpose
project would provide greatest direct
benefits. (For more details, see page
six).

Depository Board operations be-
cause if by unlucky chance he be-
comes Governor he would serve as
member of that body.
When this limit is exceeded the
Treasurer is required to register war
rants at four per cent interest. An
unhealthy condition of paying interest
upon debts is then in effect.
At the time the limit was raised to
ten million the state had on deposit
as surplus 100000 in lit state
chartered banks. This lowered the
surplus at that time to $17,000,000.
The surplus continues 30 grow as
funds are reverted from the various
departments. At the end of each fis-
cal year any funds not expended are
turned into surplus. The surplus in
the banks does not bear interest.
Of concern to Mr.. Nutter would
be the distribution of the funds to
the various banks. Which banks get
how much and why? When Fred
Hienecke left Helena for Glasgow
it is rumored that he. took three mill
lion with him to Glasgow. Other banks
lose the surplus donations. Does Mr..
Nutter care to explain his position
on these matters.
OF course he tells of how he
would have each department stay
within its budget but how would
he limit deficit spending?
Only this Wednesday State For
ester Gareth Moon was required to
go into deficit financing. The explos-

Nutter's expounding upon finan-
cial matters may be a good tactic
for him to avoid speaking about the
issues of the coming election however
he needs some instruction in fiscal
procedure to prevent him from con-
tinuing the foolish spectacle he has
presented thus far.
y For example, would he close the

Another amendment by Sen

more small contributions to
political parties by offering a
tax concession of either a $l0O

fixing more realistic ceilings
and to require more complete

that the cost of campaigning

ment provides that all ma
tional committees working for
one party ticket would be
limited to 10 cents per vote
cast in any Of the last three
elections. In 1856 this would
have been $50 million.
AS it came from committee
the bill already raises the CELL
ing on what a national political
committee may spend in one
year from SO million to a for
mula based on 20 cents per
vote cast in recent elections.
On the basis Of 1856, this
would be Sl2.5 million for one
