Zone consoling thing about
the whole discussion of Fed

we now have an aroused Cath

Ten years earlier, he said,
it would have been impossible
to find any Sizeable number
Of lay people interested and
capable enough to discuss the

ON THE OTHER HAND,
it was unfortunate, Msgr. Ry-

hierarchy was the spokes-

lies, in the present instance,
instead of a layman.

Letters To Editor
CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE)

unemployment funds, 1t is the
people, such as the farmers in
this area and outlying N. D., who
get &eir income from a farm,
come into Sidney in the winter
time, go to work in the Sugar
Factory and then go home to sit
back in their easy chair and draw
unemployment. If they had stay
ed at home, where they belong,
in the first place, there would
have been places to put the sea-
Sonal workers to work. Another
example is the miners who went
on strike for higher wages and
then drew unemployment while
waiting for the dispute to end.
There wouldn't be such a drain
on unemployment funds if these
people weren't allowed to draw
instead.
1 resent the fact that we've
been called free-loaders and that
we sit back and enjoy rock
ing chair money. This is no means
the case. We do not draw unem-
ployment because we want to but
because it is a means of survival
for our own children. We would
much rather be bringing in an
income like anyone else but if
there is no work what are we
suppose to do? Our type of work
requires skilled men in their pro-
fesSion just like any other.
We do not consider u unem-
ployment rocking chair" money,
due to the fact that every penny
has to be pinched so tight it
squeaks, in order to include rent,
gas, lights, and groceries to feed
a medium sized family. Anyone
who thinks we enjoy living this
way should just try It sometime!
Our employer is going to have
to pay in our unemployment for
us regardless of how many months
we work. What is to be done with
these funds if we aren't allowed
to draw on them? They must be
going to go somewhere and it
would be nice to know where.
Instead of saving the state of
Montana any money they will be
losing it, because us so-called sea-
sonal workers will o lose in
terest in this fair state.
1 would appreciate it very much
if you would print this letter, as
there are two sides to this issue
and l believe it's only fair that
our side gets heard too.
Thank you very much,
Sincerely, Mrs. Fay CoWell

lieveS the stamping requirement is an
onerous physical burden, an unneces-
Sary expense and could be abandoned
without harm. Some Of the statistics
are quite impressive. In one year, fiscal
81, the District sold more than A mil
lion excise stamps. To each of these
stamps liquor dealers had to affix by
hand their serial numbers Yet in
period covering some 16 years the police
thus far have been able to cite only 81
cases in which the availability of such
Identification stamps provided clue or
evidence in crime investigation.
But this stamping of serial numbers
is nothing new. 1t may be hardship,
but it is already part of the retail
liquor business. The requirement has
been on the books since the beverage
control act was enacted in 1884. If the
Commissioners retain 1t while the city
tests the new reporting method of tax
collection, they will be in a better posi-
tion to abandon the requirement after
experience and close observation by the
enforcement agencies have shown that
it is really unnecessary. If the require
ment is abandoned now, and experience
shows its abandonment to have been
unwiSe, it would be difficult to rein
Stitute it.
