Opposes Senate Bill
On Election Officials

Republican State Chairman ID
Eldred Rinehart this week issued
a statement in opposition to the
bill IS. 429) introduced in the
State Legislature by State Senator
George Snyder of Washington
County, which would remove the
right of the minority to name
minority election officials. The
bill, after being introduced, was
referred to the Committee on Elec-
tions.
Republican Chairman Rinehart
said that the passage of such a
measure would be a dangerous
move, in that it would put i'll jeo-
pardy the two-party system in the
State of Maryland. The minority's
right of being represented at the
polls has long been recognized
throughout the land" Mr. Rine-
hart said, and to remove this
right would be the withdrawal of
protection to the individual voter
The Maryland Republican State
Chairman continued:
1T would be an utterly unfair
action to place in the hands of
the majority the right to appoint
not only their own, but also the
minority's registrars and other
election officials This would be a
step toward fixing elections. The
sponsors of such RuSsian-like
Legislation are short-sighted; the
majority of today may be the
minority of tomorrow Could it be
that the sponsors of this legisla-
ton are trying to fix it so they can
never lose?
Il feel sure the rank and file
of Democrats as well as Republ:-
cans will not 90 along with any
such scheme; | am sure they will
recognize no. only the injustice
but the un-American character of
this kind of legislation. | urge all
Marylanders who believe in the
two-party system and who believe
in honesty and integrity to oppose
this measure

who co-sponsored Senator Con
Ider's liquor bill

Forest Towers Are
Opened For Season

Forest fire observation towers in
this county are now in operation
as a precaution against outbreak
of fires in woodland areas, accord
ing to r. Thomas Thayer, district
forester.
Wet weather thus far has re-
duced the danger, but Mr.. Thaycr
emphasized that the months of
March, April and May are the
three months, except when the
ground is covered by snow, open
air burning is prohibited except
between p m. and midnight.
Last year there we're SO forest
or woods fires in the four counties
and they burned a total of 665
acres The spring months were
more serious than the fall period
between September Is and Decem-
Der Is when the same burning con-
trolls were in effect Fifty of the
1860 fires occurred in the spring
months burning ST acres The SO
fall fires burned only 88 acres.
Garrett county had % fires last
year but they burned only 1863
acres. Frederick county had % and
burned over 261 acres. Allegany
had 10 fires and burned over 239
acres. Washington had IL fires and

Figures in Mr.. Thayer'S office
show that the best fire suppression
record over the past seven years

burned slightly over 95 acres.

in the hands of employers who have so much
to gain because SO few can either explain or
understand the formulas.
However, above and beyond the morass cor
porate attorneys have made of the NC law,
there are certain basic tenets around which
laws either good or bad.
Without going into the witches brew that
comprises specifics of the formulas in the NC
law, the following is an attempt to bring the
broad picture of the unemployment compensa-
ton struggle in Montana to VOICE readers
1t the state law can not serve the working
man in Montana it should be repealed and the
problem put into the hands of the federal gov
eminent so it will be possible for the unem-
ployed to receive benefits on the basis of the
original intent of the law.
If the state law can not serve the working
man, perhaps in the hands of the federal gov
eminent he will be served on the same basis
as the recent chairman who was able to in
crease his salary 800 month while stalking
the state trying to cut the benefits to the I'M
employed working man.

By GRETCHEN BILLINGS

If in truth we are Christian nation and we
do not let people starve the Montana State Leg
islature has to make up it's collective mind
whether it is going to establish realistic un-
employment compensation program or increase
the appropriation of the Welfare Department
to take care of people suffering from economic
depression.
Employers have brought to the legislature
bill to curtail unemployment benefits by about
~ million dollars They created political is
sue in the 1860 campaign on the basis of having
their premiums increased from as low as O5 %
to 2.7%o because of benefits paid during this
depression period.
At the same time unemployment compensa-
ton commission figures show that Montana en-
ployers paid an average of less than % (.92%6)
on gross wages of all covered 1860 employment.
There are 1926 people (about 1870
of the covered work force) in Montana
claiming benefits. 1t is irrelevant that they
are unskilled or sem-skilled. They are peo-
pie ready and willing to work, and there
jobs for them.

crease the salary of the chairman of the
UCC board 500 a month, which comes
out of federal funds, while cutting the heart
out of benefits and eligibility in the state
program.
" The drive to "save'' on their prem
iums has made employers greedy and
pitted them against the people the law is
supposed to serve
The aims and goals of unemployment com
pensation worthy and sound. They are hui
manitarian and based on sound insurance prin
ciples. The condition of the unemployment fune
today is not because the unemployed have
abused it, but because employers have pocketee
money that should be in the fund now to take
care of the people employers can no longer
provide with jobs.
v The fund is depleted today because
of calculated selfish employer drives over
20 years that have depleted the fund in
stead of building it according to sound in
surance principles, and now they are un-
willing to accept the consequences of their
greed.
v In 20 years employers have pocketed
over S50,000,000 that could have been a
bulwark to the economic stress in Montana
today. They could have saved themselves
the immoral and brutal battle against the
unfortunate unemployed families in this
state that is going in Helena now.
v In 1941 they put a maximum of
$4,000 on gross wages that would be taxed
under unemployment compensation.
v In 1947 they enacted the experience
rating" which allowed employers to pay as
little as .1%o if their employment record
was good. Increases in premiums were by
056 brackets.
v In 1947 they set 1870 average

factors to establish experience" which had
no relationship to unemployment, or the
condition of the fund merely an aver-
age rate" of all employer contributions.
v In 1858 they amended the minimum
contribution an employer could pay under
the experience" rating down to 059o, and
increases were reduced to .023o brackets.
v In 1868 they lowered the average
rate" from 1870 to- 12%.
v The 1858 amendments reduced the
income to the fund by one-third.
v In 1868 an amendment provided that
regardless of experience" Chow many peo-
pie were laid Off no company's premiums
could go up more than two steps. With a
payroll of 10000 the Anaconda Company
could lay off 5000 with no greater increase
in premium rate than the small businessman
who had two employees and laid off one.
v The fund and small businessmen
have paid pretty homage to the Ana
conda Company which has been cutting
thousands of men off it's payrolls, for their
