The Readers Forum

Now then if we have little enlight-
eminent on the subject, we might go
on from here and discuss the merits
or dement's of the two systems but
let's not call names or throw stones.
There have been plumbers and mis-
takes made by both sides, but it is a
proven fact in the world today, that
the nonprofit countries are forging
ahead faster than the profit system
countries. why? Will someone please
answer this question?
I am trying to draw out some good
honest discussion on this subject by
other readers. Who will; be first?-

The very name Peoples Voice, seems
to say that Readers Forum should be

to the common people to speak their

lis one thing to quote important people

to quote the nobodies regardless of how
foolish or imprudent they appear to be.
There is no salvation for democracy or

State Parks Budget
Did Get SIS Increase
Dear Friends:

Dear FRIENDS:
I would like to point out that F S.
made an error in reference to the State
Parks budget for the coming biennium
(P.V. 421). He refers to the reduced
budget they must operate under. Ac-
tually the State Parks Agency is one
of the few departments in state gov
eminent that will receive an increase
in general fund appropria lions. The
36th Legislature granted Mr.. Roberts
department s122,700 for the 1959-61 BIZ
ennium from the general fund The
9th Legislature appropriated s156,445
of general fund money for the 1961-6S
biennium. 1t Is true that this amount
is less than the requested budget by
Mr.. Roberts.
Even this increase is inadequate and
is pitifully small for the tremendous
job that faces the State Parks Depart
ment in creating a park system that
is anywhere near adequate for our
ever increasing needs in outdoor recre-
ational areas.
Churchill's phrase of ''too little and
too late" is an apt description of our
actions of failing to provide for park
system years ago when there were
many choice spots available and land
prices were far more reasonable than
today. Sincerely-FRANCES BARDA-

BY BRITT ENGLUND, Adm. A

WASHINGTON, D. c. Senator
Mansfield has again spoken out in
the Senate in opposition to the trend
toward railroad merger and CONSOLE
dation in the nation. These matters
are of vital concern to Montanans
because of the pending merger OF
the Great Northern, Northern Pacific
and two other railroads as we'll as the
| Milwaukee Roads application to dis
continue it's passenger train service
through Montana.
81 wish to register my vehement
objective to this trend" Mansfield
said. "It has not resulted in improved
service to the public. 1t has ignored
the human element of displaced rail-
road workers and their families and
the thousands of businesses which de-
pend on them"
The Majority Leader continued by
pointing out that SO far as he could
see, cit has not provided any real
solution to the basic financial plight
of the railroad companies themselves.
1t is time for the railroads to think
in larger terms rather than in terms
of shrinking still further their serv-
ices to the public, as the Great North
ern and the Northern Pacific are at
tempting to do at the present time
between the Twin Cities and the
west coast, 1t is my hope that the
government will help them in this
process. 1t is time to call a halt to
the merger and consolidation process
and to take careful look at where
it will eventually lead,' Mansfield
concluded.
Earlier, Senator Metcalf said Con-
gress Should take good hard look"
at pending railroad merger proposals.
He said it els already obvious that |

West opened the nine Of

East was pretty sure tn a t
West hadn't led a singleton
since that would locate six
clubs in the South hand, and
South's bidding had not been
extreme enough to indicate so
wild q distribution.
Now South had to resist the
temptation to take a trump fl
neSse. If he lost to the queen
Of spades back would come a
club to the ace, and then West
would ruff q club. Instead,
South led out the ace and king
Of spades and followed with
q third spade to Vests queen.
West promptly led the four

king and South had to guess
whether to play high or low
from the dummy. Was West
leading from the ace or the
queen?
Common Problem
This Is one Of the most COM
mon problems in expert bridge.
It takes q good defender to
lead from an ace through h
dummy's king. but experts do
it every day Of the week. The
trouble is that they also lead
away from queens in this po-
sition. You have to guess which
they're doing.
The important clue in this
hand was that West had not
opened q heart. His actual
opening lead Of q doubleton
in q suit bid and raised by the
opponents could not have
looked very enticing to him.
The chances were that he had
led clubs chiefly because he
didn't enjoy leading from ell
ther Of the red suits.
What holding in hearts
would give West an undesir-
able opening lead2 He would
have been happy to lead away
from the queen Of hearts, but
not from the ace.
In short, Vests failure to

Motivation Research
A motivation research firm

determine what factors most
influence the purchase of a
house. Those interviewed
were asked to rank five
factors according to impor-
tance. The factors we're: Style
Of house; type of construc-
ton and materials; size of
rooms; arran gem ent of
rooms; and low price. Ac-
cording to the company, IA
per cent rated construction
and materials first. Next
came size Of rooms, arrange
ments Of rooms, and low
price.
Thinking about making a
patio or terrace? For a con-
crete floor that's a little dif-

only gives a striking finish
that blends with the sur
