The House vote on the measure
was 1872 to 80, with LA Republicans
joining 248 Democrats in support of
the extension. Opposing the bill were

LINCOLN, Neb.- (CNS) With

On Education Aid
Plans 8

WASHINGTON, d. C.-Adminis-
tration sources say that President
Kennedy will soon go to the people
via radio and television to drum up
support for his program of federal
aid to education.
This program Il considered by the
President to be one of the most i'm
portant that he has asked the Con-
gress to enact. Strong opposition has
been developing to it from various
business and industrial sources, along
with split in his own party over his
standing firm against including fed
eral aid to parochial schools, and on
the race segregation question.
Using the technique of going di-
rectly to the people as was so effec-
lively employed by Franklin Roose-
welt, Kennedy hopes to put the Re-
ublican-Dixiecrat coalition right on
the hot spot with the electorate and
force them to reconsider their recalci-
trant attitude toward the growing
crisis in education.

Overhaul Of Cumbersome

"The amazing thing is not
that the legislative process
works as we'll as it does, but
that it works at ALL" Cascade
Rep. Russell Conklin contended
in speeches before two meet
ings in Billings Tuesday.
The former Great Falls mayor
spoke before breakfast meeting of
Billings businessmen and others spon-
sored by the Yellowstone Valley Elec-
trio Coop at the Northern Hotel, and
then later in the day before a large
turnout of consumer-members at the
co-op's annual meeting in the Shrine
Auditorium.
Conklin jibed the Yellowstone

legislative delegation, at least four
of whom were in attendance at the
breakfast meeting. He said the

Will America find out in time ?

Across the nation an alarm is be-
ing sounded over the increasing MEM
bership and spreading influence of
a relatively new organization called
the John Birch Society.
Last week the VOICE brought this
matter to the attention of Montana
people in front page story quoting
such sources as TIME magazine, the
CHICAGO DAILY NEWS and George
Sokolsky, the conservative columnist.
REPUBLICAN SENATOR
CONCERNED
This week we find that on March
8, United States Senator Young (R-
MD expressed his concern over the
John Birch Society in the Congress
sional Record at page 1914 where
he says of his state, ''In one city
alone, it has at least four cells.
Senator Young was joined by Mon
tana's Senator Mansfield in the dis
cussion of this organization. Mans
field said, 81 have been trying to get
some information as to what the John
Birch Society is, and | cannot seem
to get any help from various COM
mittees here or the agencies down.

Ironical to loyal Americans who
consider themselves "liberals", will
be the comments of the "middle-of-

the-road" Republican Senator Young
as quoted in the CIR:
g.. This organization is ultra
conservative in nature and has
among it's members some of the
most able and influential people
in each community. Strangely
enough, most of it's criticism is
leveled, not against liberal pub
lie officials, but against the more
middle-of- the-road, and even
conservative Republicans"
Back in 1948 when the VOICE was
first target of the ultraconserva-
tives we predicted that what is spring
ing up in the form of John Birch
Society philosophy was inevitable.
Piece by piece the ultraconservatives
have discredited individuals and or
CARNATIONS until they have pushed
into their own fort.
Republicans have used these
people for many long years now.
AS long as they were advantageous
to their own cause they ignored
the evil they represented. Now the
conservatives suddenly find their
house is haunted.

late at night and often had to eat on
the run; that legislators mail was
heavy and there was no secretary
and no typewriter to take care of it.
"For the most part, he said, 'leg-
islators are poorly trained, unin-
formed and not ready for the job.
URBAN AREAS SHORT ON
REPRESENTATION
Speaking before "a largely rural
group, the former Great Falls mayor
outlined the problems of the cities
and admitted it might be indiscreet
in view of his audience but cover
representation of rural areas is al
most a scandal.
AS an example Conklin said Je-
rome Anderson (R-Yellowstone)
received the most votes of any
member of the legislature Cover
10000 but Anderson's vote
counted for no more than did the
vote of Robert Raundal (D-Petro-
leum) who received just over 200
votes.
The former Great Falls mayor told
Yellowstone Valley Electric people
that because of an archaic constitu-
ton the legislature spent many hours
discussing legislation for cities and
then did absolutely nothing for them.
He emphasized the length of time
taken up by the legislature discuss
ing the Glitch" problems of Billings,
while little or no time was allowed
for constitutional amendments and
other vital issues.
Conklin, who advocated "home
rule'' for cities, said Billings should

State Board of Education

mo NOLGu VI L w
lie Instruction Harriet Miller at the
Board of Education, ex-officio Reg.
ents meeting Monday on the motion
to raise student fees $50 to $40 q
school year. Whether the fee will be
raised $40 a quarter or $12.50 q
quarter will not be determined until
the April 10 meeting when the an
nual budgets are fixed.
Miss Miller's vote was the only pro-
test made to the increase which will
bring Montana's charges higher than
any in the Western States. The in
crease which was inundated by the
Legislature is to pay for instruction
at the University units. Whether this
can be done under our Constitution
has not yet been tested in the courts.
Nonresident students will be
charged an additional five dollars
on top of the increase. They account
for as much as 27 per cent of the
student body at Butte's School of
Mine to "a per cent at Northern
Montana College at Havre.
STUDENT-TEACHE
RATIOS INCREASED
In order to keep within the drastic
ally slashed budget proposed by Gov.
Donald Nutter the student-teacher
ratios will be increased to 20-to-1
at Western Montana College in Dill
lon and Eastern Montana College in
Billings. The ratio will be 18-to-1 at
Northern Montana College and the
School of Mines will be 15-to-1. At
Montana State University in Missoula
and Montana State College in Boze-
man the professors must have 10
and one-half students each.
In order to pay salary increases
of to 10 per cent, staff reductions
will have to be made.
DR.. Short, president of WMCOE,
pointed out the plight of the univer-
sity units under the rubber amend
ments which give $1,000 for 20 stu
dents but take away $4,000 if you
don't get the full 20 making it better
to budget after the fall enrollments
rather than in the spring.
This prompted Gov. Nutter to push
with. "You don't feel that your pro-

The budgeting is further compli-

is supposed to compensate for them.
There is 25 per cent reduction in

cause no money was appropriated by
the legislature for this purpose. Trav-
ell expenses must now. come from de-
partmental funds.
The Governor then ordered the unit
presidents to send him the lists of the
present staff and the ones who will
be with us no longer.
BOARD APPROVES THOU SHALT
NOT WRITE" DICTUM
Gordon Doering, the controversial
Helena dentist appointed to the board
by Gov. Don Nutter, successfully
moved that the board go on record
as favoring the censorship currently
being practiced at MSU.
Doering also wanted the unit presi-
dents to present departmental ac-
counting break-downs. His whim was
not granted because not only does it
serve little purpose for budgeting on
the state level but uniform account
ing procedure is now under considera-
ton.
Doering then wanted to go into
curriculum because he had noted that
a teacher had received an ga" grade
in tap dancing and "B" in square
dancing when he had gone through
the teachers file. Doering is on the
Helena school board.
He was told by the executive Sec
of the University system, Rus
sell Barthell, that this was the type
of piece-meal action the Regents were
trying to avoid when they declared
halt to all new courses year ago. A
study being prepared by his office
for release within IL months will
show not only the trends in the last
four years but will also point out the
needs in the. future. Tap dancing and
square dancing are now included in
