DAVID LAWRENCE

President Kennedy's latest
message to Congress on the
economic situation Is in some
respects the most important
he has yet delivered. For 1t
affords an insight into the
kind of policies he intends to
sponsor In the field Of busi-
ness.
The first part Of the mes
sage is mostly theory. Who
knows, for instance, what the
national growth might have
been In the last few years If
the economy had realized its
possible" expansion? Who
can say just why there has
been - failure to use our full
capacity? MIR. Kennedy says,
for instance, that corporate
profits could have been IS
billion higher" than they were
in 1860. But he doesn't tell
how this could have been
done in the face Of declining
business due to the after
effects Of the steel strike.
In general terms, the Pres
ident proposes now Ito ex-
pand the Nations investments
in physical and human re-
sources, and In science and
technology"
This is a worthy ideal. but
the question Of just how to
do it isn't covered in the
message. There is one point.
however, which may afford
q clue. The President, for
instance, says pointedly that
''long-term interest rates
should decline" and that "a
further decline in short-term
interest rates, under present
conditions, would lead to q
further outflow Of funds
abroad"
This means in its simplest
form. that Mr.. Kennedy
recognizes how much the in
ternational economy has be-
come interviewer with the
national economy and that
artificially to depress interest
rates within the United
States might be good politics
in one sense but can wreck

Re MPCo.'s Letter" To Congress
Contends Buffalo Rapids
Memorial Meaningless"

CHARLO-House Joint Me-
mortal IL which was approved
by a 1925 vote in the Senate
two weeks ago is meaning
less, according to Mrs. Fran
ces Logan, secretary of the
Committee For Paradise Dam.
Mrs. Logan referred to an amend
ment drafted by Sen. Croft ORA
valli) which she said nullifies the
original intent of Hum IL to put the
Montana Legislative Assembly on
record favoring the construction of
two low-head dams by Montana Pow
er Company. The Croft amendment,
she said, provides "that the memorial
would be of no force and effect I'M
less the proposed plan furnished full,
comprehensive development in con-
formity with the forthcoming 309
report of the Corps of Engineers.
This proviso, she said, 'was omitted
in certain newspaper accounts" of the
passage of Hum IL last week.
"Since single-purpose company
proposals cannot by any stretch of
the imagination be considered
comprehensive the Clegislative)
request that the Buffalo Rapids
Dam be licensed is meaningless"

Paul Rice Named
Senate President
Pro Tempore

Teton Senator Paul Rice, one OF
the truly fine 'grand old men, of
the upper chamber, has been elected
by his Senate colleagues to serve as
Senate President pro tempore ad
interim.
Now serving his fifth term in the
Senate, the Teton Democrat becomes
next in line for the governorship after
Lieutenant Governor Tim Babcock.
Third in line for the states chief
executive position is the speaker of
the House, currently Rep. Cylde
Hawks (R-Big Horn.
Rice succeeds Treasure Senator
Dave Manning as Senate President
pro tenn. If tradition holds in the BIZ
ennium ahead, on at least one occa-
sion, Gov. Don Nutter and Lieut..
Gov. Babcock will find it convenient
to be out of the state at the same
time, thereby making it possible for
the interim head of the Senate to
briefly fill the Governors chair, sign
important state documents. etc.
Cigar-smoking Senator Rice, who
served his freshman session in 1916,
is a native of Independence, Mo-
the home of another famous Presi-
dent-one Harry Truman by name.
Rice is wheat farmer in the Bynum
area north of Choteau.

sum total of House and Senate &C.
tions up to Sunday afternoon had re-
suited in a bill which would provide
such program as nearly as proposed
appropriations allow. This bill kept
intact the 11-year-old plan of dis
tributing state money to schools on
the need principle.
''In reversing his earlier proposals,
and in defending House majority ac-
ton on HB 373, to distribute 1914
million on per-pupil basis regardless
of need or the principles of our equal
ization program, the Governor posed
as the friend of the small school. Per-
haps he did not know that this bill
would have cost the small rural
schools about $500 per school while
replacing it with from $40 to $50,
loss in state aid to these schools of
from $3.50 to $3.50 per school.

ernor, | am proud to state that Z

CITY TO STUDY PUBLICLY
OWNED GAS SYSTEM

can interesting sidelight as to who
should furnish essential services was
provided at a meeting of the Kalispeil
City Council on Monday. Councilman
Horsman said there had been talk of
bringing natural gas into the Kali
spell area but nothing had come of it.
He asked his fellow councilmen their
opinion on the question of the city
going into the natural gas business.
Did anyone cry Socialism,? Appar-
emily not, for Councilman Fisher
moved to study the possibility. Is
there anything inherently different
about gas and electricity which makes
supply of one by public body $50
cialistic" while the other is given
serious consideration by the City of
Kalispell?"

STATE FUNDS PROTECTED
To protect state funds on the Uni
versity system level, Croft said, an
amendment had been put in their
appropriation bill requiring every
unit to return $1,066 per student if
the projected enrolment is not as
high as was estimated. At the same
time they will be allowed a deficit
of $1,066 for each student if the
enrollments exceed the anticipated
amount. The experiment stations and
the Extension Service were severely
cut, he said, and personnel will have
to go, because economy means that
we are curtailing some of the serv-
ices necessary.
The Ravalli county Senator said
there would be no state building pro-
gram any place.
He said they had tried to maintain
adequate services at all institutions.
Boards and commissions are go
ing to have to be cut in the future,
Croft said, because there are "too
many Kings and not enough work
ers". The problem in accomplishing
this lies in the many special inter-
ests who fight it, he said.

BY 1880, WILL NEED A BIS
MILLION AT INCREASE

"By $780," Mrs. Logan continued.
'the U. S. will need 315 million acre
feet of storage in addition to that
existing in 1854. The Pacific North
west will require an additional 10
million acre-feet. This, it may be
noted, is 10 million more than the
Engineers said was needed for flood
control storage. 1t shows how neces-
sary it is to treat all aspects of water
use together, rather than one at a
time. Single purpose use must not
be permitted to prevent full regula-
ton for all essential purposes.
sit should also be pointed out
that Paradise would furnish 4 mil
lion of the additional 10 million
required in the Pacific Northwest;
Knowles would furnish 3 million;
Buffalo Rapids 2 and would
furnish none. The Paradise
Knowles site is one of only three
remaining large storage sites in
the region. Can the nation afford
to throw it away?

Mr.. Robert Miller, Editor
Independent Record

Mr.. Robert Miller, Editor
Independent Record
A story in your March edition
headed "TTU Monopoly on State
Printing Broken by Bill'' is very mis-
leading to the general public. 1t ap-
pears, as seems to be the custom in
your paper, to make another labor
union something ugly. Labor is get
ting accustomed to this since it is
in keeping with the times for the
press and public to be on an emo
tional hinge of hate labor.
The international Typographical
Union, however, is not just another
labor union. 1t is universally recog-
nized as the oldest and most demo-
cratic trade union in America. 1t is
100 years old. To list few of its
policies it has two-party election
system, it's international officers are
elected by all printers who belong
casting secret ballots in practically
every city in this nation, it holds an
nual conventions, it's dues cannot be
raised unless approved by the mem
bership who cast secret ballots in a
nationwide referendum, local union
cannot take a strike vote other than
by secret ballot in open meeting.
All these things have been stand
ard ITU procedure for at least 40
years prior to Taft-Hartley, Land
rum Griffin or the 37th legislative
Assembly.
The article in question says "the
International Typographical Unions
statutory monopoly on handling Mon
tana's governmental printing needs
was ended so far as the Legislature
is concerned"
NO MONOPOLY" SINCE 1912
1t could be construed as statutory
monopoly but that is the only monop-
oily that exists. When this act was
enacted in 1897 the only printing
craft union in existence was the ITU.
In 1908 and 1904 it broke up into
five printing craft unions. Each union
had its own label. In 1911 these five
unions combined into an organiza-
tion called the Allied Printing Trades
Association and issued one label for
all crafts known as the Allied label.
No single craft label can be issued
in an Allied area. Since approximate
Iy 1912 Helena, Great Falls, Missoula,
Butte and Billings have had the AL
lied label and not the Typographical
label.

FULL REGULATION NEEDED
TO SATISFY WATER NEEDS

"After two years of study, includ-
ing Investigations by authorities in
all fields of water use, the committee
shows that our rivers must be fully
regulated to supply enough clean
water all year round to satisfy the
country's many rapidly growing de-
mands. The experts agree this de-
mand will double by 1880 and triple
by 1000.
"The obvious way to secure year
round flow" the committee points
out, is by storage in reservoirs. 1t
emphasizes the Importance of saving
our good reservoir sites and prevent
ing their being taken over for single
purpose use. This is particularly true
of the larger sites because cost of
storage is less in a few large reser-
voirs than in many small ones.
"The report tabulates the need for
storage in the country as a whole
and in each of the % major drainage

SENATE CUTS STRAIGHT
EIGHT" DOWN TO SIZE

Pointing out the ruling hand of
Yellowstone county's Tstraight eight
Republicans in the House he showed
where, while 26 counties would lose
money under the Republican bills
Billings was slated to gain over $780,
600. and said "The Republican
Straight eight" were shooting from
the hip. The Democrat Senate
amendment to 373 cut Billings down
to only $4,000 increase.
While Yellowstone was slated
for a $4,000 increase under lib
1913 as it passed the House, smaller
counties such as Sanders and Deer
Lodge, would receive substantial
cuts. The loss to Sanders under the
House-approved bill would have
been $1O,555. For Deer Lodge the
loss would have been over So, 200.
Silver Bow, not noted for send
ing Republicans to the Legislature,
would have contributed to the big
increase for Yellowstone by taking
a cut of more than $4,000.
(For House roll call on lib 373,
see below.)
McKeon said the Governor was not
telling the people of Montana the
truth when he said legislators, school
people and the Montana Taxpayers
Association had agreed on the Re-
publican program. "The Montana
Association, yes, but not

plant was the first printing firm
in Helena to have the Allied label
as is signified by the number one
after it. This printing firm has done
thousands of dollars of printing
for the state and using the Allied
label on it.
Around 1884 the Lithographer's
label began to appear on state print
ing, This is the offset method that
the legislature refers to when it
used that for an excuse for amend
ing the act in question and the legis-
lature felt they were being denied
its services. This label appears on
each senator and representative
letterhead used during this legisla-
ture. 1t also appears on the official
Montana highway map as well as
several other pieces of printed matter
paid for by the state. This Lithogra-
piers label is not recognized by the
AFL-CIO since this union is not affil-
lated. Neither is it associated with
the Allied printing trade crafts.
There is no jurisdictional dispute
in the instant case. To my knowledge
there has never been a court case in
Montana stopping recognition of the
label on printing paid
Tor by the state.

Keen (D-Deer LODGE and Croft ID

McKeon spoke on elementary and
secondary school financing bills that
have kept the legislature in Helena
eight days after the official Goth day.
McKeon pointed out that the Senate
did not receive the school financing
bills HB 373 and 374 until the Goth
day.
He said HB 373 would mean less
money to 26 Of the Sc counties. U.s.
ing graphs he pointed out what the
Republican plan would do to few
of the counties in reducing their share
of the state money.
He said the Republican plan of
per pupil distribution did not recog-
nize the equalization factor that
has been the need and reason for
state aid. He accused Republicans
of rewriting the law in an appro-
priation bill.

ANDERSON SHOULD GET THE
FACTS BEFORE TALKING

The article quoted Majority Floor
| Leader Jerome Anderson (R-Yellow-
stone) as saying restricting the state
to one type of printing is like an
ostrich putting it's head in the sand"
If Representative Anderson had put
his head in the sand and dug he would
have seen these three labels appear
ing on printing for the state.
Mr.. Anderson is also quoted as say
ing ''the change was made to let the
state explore different methods of
printing" Does he mean to imply
that the state is thinking of setting
up state department of printing?
The constitution forbids this.
In any event had Mr.. Anderson
Explored the State Controllers
office he would have found that
for years the state has been Eek
ploring" other methods of printing.
For some reason or other the legis-
lature seems to think that only the
photographers could do offset print
ing. For years Mckee Printing Co.
of Butte has been doing offset print
ing for several state departments
and furnishing the Allied label and
not the Lithographer's label. A firm
in Kalispell can furnish the state
with offset printing and furnish the
Typographical label. Offset printing
can also be purchased in Great Falls,
Helena, Missoula, Billings with either
the Allied or Typographical labels
from the smaller cities.
ACTS ORIGINAL INTENT-KEEP
MONTANA BUSINESS HERE
The label act which the legislature
amended was just as much for the
benefit of the employers as any union.
Upon several occasions the employers
nave co-operated with the unions in
keeping the statute on the books. The
original intent of the act was not to
insure a monopoly but to assure Mon
jana- printing for Montana business.
The amendment to this act now
opens the door to all sorts of out-of-
tate speciality organizations to OBJ
ain Montana money without paying
me cent of Montana taxes. We solid
Y agree with Rep. Ray M. Loman (R-
.ake) when he said ''this will open
he way for wildcat unions and
pecialty organizations with union
abels for a price,
We fail to see where this legis-
lation fits into the program of a

time late Thursday or early
yesterday.
Rabbi Emanuel Rose called it
the work of pranksters who

Gov. Mark o. Hatfield, noti-

Such action is to be con-
demned whether it originated
with an unknowing prankster
or an Eichmann-like mind"
Rabbi Rose said he doubted
whether the vandalism was in
spirited directly by the trial of
Adolph Eichmann, the Nazi, on
charges that he was responsible

during the Hitler regime in
Germany.
He said that might have been
a contributing factor but that
the activities of such groups
as the John Birch Society and

strumental in creating an at
mosphere that makes for SUCH
action.
