Why Is The Press So Silent On
Missile Lag Probe Findings?

In recent months the daily and OF the weekly
Montana have rallied wildly about work stoppages
hndering national defense work at Fl missile sites.
Now the Presdentiall Missile Sites Labor Com
mission has made initial report investigation why
the lag at such military installations According infoma-
ton gathered by the from the Pentagon other
the following facts have been ascertained:
Lost time due to work soppages only minute frac
ton of total time worked back April when the anti
labor McCeen committee of the u Senate first sensational
lied the affair." and by of headlines attempted
to make labor the for the missile Work
at the Sites in April considerably less than the
national for industry of twoenth of cent in
first half of 1861 For August work stoppages accounted for
only tenthousandth of cent of time workedor
2O6 man-days of total of LIS million days worked.
Among major for the lag technical troubles
with rockets, design changes bad weather. failures
accidents and miscellaneous foulups other than work stop
pages.
In view of the findings of Presidential commission
would only fair that those which hurredy
condemned labor should make amends by revealing in
equally large headlines and by of editorial comment the
facts of the matter. Will they? doubt t.-HLB

With the Attorney General being
an appointee under the short ballot
system there is little reason left as
to why the court should not also be
appointed. We'd not like to have our
"strong man" in the GOVERNOR
seat feel insecure by not having
strings on the five "black robes.
A cabinet system would be created
under the short ballot in which the
functions of state would be divided
under 13 heads.
The Department of Natural Re-
sources heads the list with the divi-
sions of Soil Conservation, Grass Con-
servation, Fish and Game, Forest,
Water Conservation, State Parks and
Tourism, and State Lands. A Public
Safety cabinet member would head
the state police section which would
take care of the Fish and Game viola
tions, and livestock because the latter
doesn't belong in the Agriculture
section.
But the only one of the categories
of state functions that the Council
feels it can work on until next month
is the Administration. The divisions
of property control, purchases, man.
agement, budget, personnel, audits,
and central control.
Sweet violets.
'The Council this month was ter
ribly uneasy, though they did not
disturb anybody else, for the want
of foresight of peoples is infinite and
that of governments is just as great"
to paraphrase Anatole France. 1t
would be pleasant to hear no more
of the Council the same as we hear
no more of Crombile.

By EDMUND FREEMAN. Missor

The first week in September be-
longed to the lawyers in Missoula
Many eminent men in the profession
gathered to dedicate the handsome
new Law School building on the cam
pus of the State University. Good
architecture is still not abundant on
the campus but the builders of this
building have served us we'll. "The
habitations of justice should speak

The Law School sustains one of
the proudest traditions in the Uni
versity. It's graduates have achieved

Among those / remember who have
graduated during the thirty years
that G. w. Leaphart was Dean of the
School are: Governors Bonner and
Nutter; Senator Lee Metcalf and
Congressman Arnold Olsen; Federal
Judges Murray, Jameson, and Boldt;
James Browning, Clerk of the Su-

judge on the Ninth Circuit Court
of Appeals; Russell Niles, dean of the
Law School of New York University;
Carl Mcfarland, assistant Attorney
General of the United States and
president of Montana State Univer-
sity; William Jameson, president of
the American Bar Association; Will

The panel theme for the first morn

discussion turned around the state |

FRANKLY SPEAKING
By FRANK SMALL

Anatole France wrote Penguin ISL
and to demonstrate humorous origins
of customs and law. May / quote a
paragraph to help US keep our per-
spective on the Legislative Council
topic of this column.
"The new ministry, belonging to
all the groups in the majority, repre-
sented the most diverse and contrary
opinions, but they were all moderate
, and convinced conservatives. The
Minister of Foreign Affairs was re-
tanned from the former cabinet. He
was dark little man called Crombile,
who worked fourteen hours a day
with the conviction that he dealt with
tremendous questions. He refused to
see even his own diplomatic agents,
and was terribly uneasy, though he
did not disturb anybody else, for
the want of foresight of peoples is
infinite and that of governments is
just as great.
Monday the Legislative Council
continued to work on the problem
of strengthening the Governor. The
charts channeled the 800 divisions
of the states moneys into seven funds
and broke them down again into Con-
troller's accounts, of 300 in number.
This process was used by Rep. Henry
Hubbard (R-Lewis & Clark to dis
play to Gov. Don Nutter the pockets
of surplus which the Republicans
are so DESTROYS of picking.
Senator Dave James (D-Liberty)
came up with the short ballot which
allows the electorate two choices to
vote for (1) the combined Governor
and his shadow, functionless
Secretary of State or (2) Nyet. If |
you don't care for the power ballot
you are privileged to dismantle the
voting machine.
While you are busy tearing the
levers out by the roots the Governor
will be busy pulling the roots out of
anyone who voted ''Nyet''.
Don't be shaken by the convictions
of the Council that they are dealing
with tremendous questions because
as it was pointed out by Senator Rex
Hibbs (R-Y ellowstone) it would take
25 constitutional amendments and
500 bills to give our Nutterfly the
power he Graves.
Yes, he (Nutter) came to the
meeting and said that he wanted
the power to hire and fire anyone
he chooses at any time. He COM
planned about appointees who made
up their minds as to what was the
right thing to do and stuck by it.
1t left him powerless. 4

uneasy when accepting the reports

PUBLIC OWNERSHIP
PAYS DIVIDENDS

Washington came down from $6.74
TO $4.52 and rank improved from
End to 1st. About so per cent of
Washington is served by consumer
owned systems, Nebraska is 1907
and Tennessee, 1880. These are the
three bellweather states.
Oregon, on the other hand, had less
improvement, coming down from
1864 to $3.50 and slipping from
first place to third. 1t had 1862
consumer ownership. increasing since
the Tillamook PUD acquisition to
1920.
The national average price came
down from 1891 to $7.44.
The ranking of some states has
changed radically, thus Nevada i'm
proved from 44th to 18th place, while
New Hampshire slipped from 24th to
18th. Montana slipped from 10th to
27th-see ad chart, page 2.-EDI-
TORI
Comparisons among the states are
difficult to make because of the many
factors involved, including the whole
sale price of power and the extent
of consumer ownership. The present
study, however, is broadly indicative.
This study has been confined to
residential rates, similar studies would
show the lower rates for commercial,
industrial and public uses of electric
ity.
Electric rates in the Pacific
Northwest clearly demonstrate the
advantages of consumer ownership,
public and cooperative, of electric
systems.

of their subcommittee The accept
ing motion was so complicated that
the members themselves were not
quite sure that they were really com
hitting themselves to continue the
short ballot study. Sen. Bob Durkee
(D-Hill) and Rep. John D. Melcher
| (D-Rosebud) voted vocally against
the short ballot as proposed to the
Council. There was possibly one other
vocal vote against the subcommittee
but I was unable to catch it.
Sen. Durkee was concerned not so
much as to whether the Public Service
Commission was elected or appointed,
but pondered the quasi-judicial role
which it has assumed over the years.
Because of lack of funds the RR COM
it's own data as to the facts of utility
increases. By becoming only an arbi-
traitor between the utility and it's
customers it loses the intent of it's
function and interferes in matters
which could be handled in the courts.
Durkee said, "The commission is sup
posed to be peoples voice. don't
mean the newspaper"
Melcher built his opposition to the
appointment system of the short bal
lot upon the established custom in
Montana of electing judges. APP
pointees could not be relied upon to
give any better decisions than the
nrasant elected con, mi ssion ers The
subcommittee had conceded to Melch-
er that the commission should have |
staggered appointments of fixed |
terms. An appointee would merely |
be a fall guyTpatsy for the passing
within of the Governor. Make a
wrong" decision and it would cost
him his job.
The post of Auditor got lost be-
tween paragraphs of the report to
the Council. John Holmes, who has
held the position for longer than most
can remember, is in bad grace with
the council. They claim the Auditor
doesn't audit. In fact they believe
the audit function is so important
that it should not be entrusted to
any administration. The Legislature
IS supposed to set up committee
similar to the council to care for this
feature of wondering where the mon
ey went when you brush your teeth
