The Republican majority was in
dignant, of course, at what they con-
/ sldered the indicate references.
Democrats just didn't use the right
terms. They should take their cue
from the Republican Governor-the
word, boys, is ''lousey".
An astounding lack of political
philosophy is one of the glazing facts
of the current state legislature, but
there is little reason to believe that
the people sitting at the seat of gov
eminent in Helena today are so very
far removed from the thinking of the
people they represent.
/ would be the last to say that the
people are getting anything from the
executive or legislative branch of
government that they didn't vote for.
If the actions of the elected repre-
sentatives do not coincide with the
peoples thinking | can only be re-
minded of the warning made by Plato
2400 years ago:
''The punishment of wise men
who refuse to take part in the
affairs of government is to live
under the government of unwise
men,.
The 37th legislature reflects a
courage and compassion comparable
to that of the people they represent.
While we tamper with the dyna-
mite of having everything that is
sharing, tagged 'socialistic'' we find
a form of police state pushing in on
us from the shadows.
Under the myth of "free enter
prise'' we are growing callouses on
our hearts and forging chains on our
minds.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?
By GRETCHEN G. BILLINGS

Republicans don't really hate PEG
pie, l am told, they just like money
more. ID
During the election they led the
small businessman down the road
of scorn and hate directed at the un-
employed by telling them it was the
faults of the mo goods who were
drawing this money that their rate
was at 2.7%o.
Then last week when they had a
chance to protect the small business
man they told the legislature these
small merchants did not want pro-
lection against the 2.7%.
Continuing their pressure on the
fund Republicans managed to squeeze
a few more dollars out of the stom-
achs of kids whose dads can't find
job, anyplace. While men are lined
up at employment offices, the legis-
lature last week, with but two ex-
ceptions, haggled over premiums of
business.
There were few words, and damn
few, about the violence being done
to human beings.
If small business in Montana is not
going to complain about continuing
their 2.79o under a Republican bill,
their whining during the political
campaign last year must be tagged
as nothing but an imposition of more
misery on the already miserable in
our state today. 1t is all a stroke in
behalf of inhumanity, after all.
Kermit Daniels, Democratic minor
ity floor leader, was wont to call Re-
publicans hypocrits, stupid and crack
pots over some of the fantasia that
was being passed off as representa-
i've government Monday.

Upper Income Groups

Climate Stimulating

A better business climate via
lower taxes has become the OBJ
session and passion of Montana
people through the osmosis of
propaganda over the past two
years.
The whirlwind is being reaped
today in Helena in an unreasoning
and inhuman approach to the re-
probabilities of government.
Because the people in November
fell prey to the propaganda of
their enemies they are now suf-
fering the humiliation of being
governed by men of vain intellect
and empty hearts.

This week the legislature gave
the livestock people tax cut on
the ground it would promote the
feeding of cattle. Earlier in the
week the legislature voted against
bill that would have fed more
kids. ~
Just previous to the stockmen's
tax relief the peoples representa-
tives voted to put the squeeze on
Montana's most depressed area, Butte.
Democratic Rep. Healy of Butte
pleaded with the legislature not to
kick them while they were down, in
the face of 400 people having been
laid off that very week, adding to
the thousands already depressed in
Butte.
But Mr.. Healy could have saved
his breath. This legislature is no place
to bring your. troubles. With all the
sensitiyities of sharks, if they see
your blood-you're dead!
HB 27,,Sthe unemployment COM
pensation bill, was debated at length
in the House last week and with only
a couple of notable exceptions the
peoples representatives made no ref
erence to the plight of pople who are
ready and willing to work but can
find no jobs. There was no reference
to their families, their kids. At no
point in this meeting of the peoples
representatives has the question been
asked, "If there are no jobs how are
the jobless going to eat?''

The corporate lobby is able to con-
