SUBURBIA, U.S.A. (UPD-
Teenage driving is one of the
problems of suburbia. Com
bined with middle-age absent
mindedness it can become a
menace.
This came home to our fam
lily a few weeks ago in rather
forceful manner.
Our boy Stephen had just
turned 16. He had had his eye
on the family automobile for
some time. / had had my eye
on a statistic l read someplace:
A high school student using a
car each school day is 20 times
more likely to make a falling
grade than an "a" grade.
But on this day-April FOOLS
Day, l believe it was-the head
of the family was out of town.
Now in this particular state
of suburbia, youth turned 16
can drive without license so
long as someone with a drivers
license is sitting in the front
seat with him.

Teenagge Driving, Middle-Aged
Forgetfulness Can Be Menace

So Stephen took off at the
wheel that April morning to
drive to the commuter station
at which he boards a train to
the next stop for the walk to
high school. His mother sat be-
side him. And his grandmother
sat next to her. And in the
back seat was his kid sister,
Linda.
Halfway to the station po-
lice car halted this encourage.
Seems the little yellow inset
plate signifying purchase of a
new state license was not in
place. And you know who for
got to put it there before he
left? The head of the family.
The officer was inquisitive.
He asked Steve for his drivers
license. The boy responded that
he had none. The man asked
the wife for her license. She
responded that it was in the
other purse.
The officer asked about the
new state registration. The
wife responded that it must be

H. S. District Court
Won't Override Ban
On Wufered Ham

WASHINGTON, d. C.-(CNS)-
u. S. District Court Judge Joseph
McGarraghy ruled here November Is
that the Agriculture Department
could put into effect regulation for
bidding the sale of watered ham. 4ey
The regulation was challenged in a
suit filed by Armour & Company,
claiming that Agriculture Secretary
Orville Freeman acted arbitrarily
and capriciously" in approving the
ham regulation.
The regulation forbids shipment
of federally inspected ham interstate
unless water injected in it for curing
is pumped out leaving the ham at its
green weight. If hams are shipped
interstate with wafer added they must
be labelled imitation. This is basic
ally the same regulation that was in
effect from 1862 until December 80,
1860, when Agriculture Secretary
Ezra Benson allowed the addition of
1919 water.
Though Judge McGarraghy ruled
the ban can become effective Novem-
Der IL, he denied USDA's notion for
a summary judgment against the suit.
Thus, the regulation is in force pend
ing settlement.

Letter to the Editor
Dear Editor:
1t is appar emit that there are certain
groups throughout the nation, and
especially in the State of Montana, who
find it convenient to accuse educational
leaders, including public school teach
ers, of teaching certain social and poll
teal PHILOSOPHERS, which are contrary
to the best interests of America
We feel that such accusations are
grossly unfounded and that free speech
is basic ito the American way of life
and it's present and future strength.
Such blanket statements tend to MAX e
creative teaching more difficult in that
suspicion may be aroused relative to
any stat made concerning basic
truths and facts in the welfare of our
great nation.
Inasmuch as such accusations and
innuendos can decrease the effective
ness of our schools in promoting strong
programs of instruction, we do hereby
urgently request that such groups ex-
anime more effectively such leaders,
teachers, and the subjects taught be-

After IA days of talking to people,
and three of those days listening to
all the presentations at the Farmer

| think about the intense concern
about an awesome evil that has per-
meated the state this headless
horseman of anti-ism which is clutch
ing at the vitals of practically every
community. In some places no one
has seen it come, or knows where it
is taking them /. this ghostly Icha-
bod, snatching books out of grade
school curriculum and nobody knows
what book or why.
What is this ism, people ask.
How do you explain it?
In some places it is like being
walked through Flu Man Chu serial
and never getting to the concluding
chapter to find out who is behind
the bamboo screen.
Or like sleeping with DR.. Jekyll.

NEW YORK-(PAI)-Job secur-

ing legislative responsibility only to
watch catastrophe reverses at the
hands of a tickle electorate. What
is the percentage of going to Helena
in 1868 and doing what is necessary
to put this state back on it's feet, by
recapturing our lost prestige morally
and financially in the fields of in
situations and education, they ask,
only to have the people stampeded
into reverses in 1864?
But these discouragements are
momentary. Those who believe, will
try to come to Helena because they
must. They can not accept the theory
that atrophy precedes progress.
You see, the scars of the atrophy
are beginning to show. The natives
are getting restless.
The condemnation of anti-ism is
growing. There is an increasing de-
sire for information. Analysis of the
problem invariably produces the con-
clusion that you can not fight
shadow. so accentuate the positive.
There are intelligent and courag-
eous people who are going to be
heard and listened to. In spite of
the odds against them in the public
communications field they are going
to engage the battle, and Montana
people will get the message.
The march forward is starting. We
may have to listen a little harder to
hear it above the din of anti-fsm, and
search little deeper in the black ink
of the communications media; it may
take a little while to get to Garcia,
but the torch is being carried and
when the people of this country catch
sight of it we're on our way back.

The area power suppliers point
up the fact that the Missouri Basin
has had below-average snow and

suit, the flow on the river has
been low and the hydroelectric
plants have been unable to pro-
duce electric power UP to their
expected capacities. Under the
