Recalls MacArthur's Words
On Imperative Need
To Abolish War

Editor, The Peoples Voice:
On the subject of peace and dis
armament, I would like 20 quote from
q speech on July 5, 1861 (Which was
very little quoted). to joint session
of the Congress of the Republic of the
Philippines, by General of the Army
Douglas Macarthur as follows:
Y on Will say at once that the aboli-
ton of war has been the dream of man
for centuries, every proposition to that
end has been promptly discarded as
impossible and fantastic. But that was
before the science of the past decade
made mass destruction a reality The
argument then was along spiritual and
moral lines, and lost. But now the ire
mendous evolution of nuclear and other
potentials of destruction has suddenly
taken the problem away from its pri-
mary consideration as q moral and
spiritual question and brought IL
abreast of scientific realism. 1t is no
longer an ethical question to be pom
dered solely by learned philosophers
and eccleSiaStics, but a hardcore one
for the decision of the masses whose
survival is the issue .
Many will tell you with mockery
and ridicule that the abolition of war
can only be q dream-that 1t is but the
vague imagination of n visionary. But
we must go on or we will go under.
And the great criticism that can be
made is that the world lacks a nlan
that will enable us to go on.
I'VE are I'm new era We must
have sufficient imagination and ceur-
age to translate the universal wish
for peace-which is rapidly becem-
ing a universal necessity-inte aetu-

The Other Side of
The Welfare Story

Editor, The Peoples Voice
Enclosed is a copy of a letter which
1 sent to the local paper in protest
about the County Commissions and the
State Welfare people boaSting so much
over putting all the lazy people to
work They were pouring it on in
Sundays TRIBUNE, week ago.
The TRIBUNE did not have room
for all of it. If you think the whole
message would be healthful for the
State office and have room in your
paper, 1 would be glad.-MRS. MARCIA

back-Slapping in one direction and
insults dished out in another direction
to the unemployed of this town.
How about the other side of the

why the welfare rolls are lowest in
history, according to Helena.
Your readers should take these stor-
les into consideration. This woman has

southwest side of town. just get
a little bit of work now and then. The
Welfare helped me for awhile, but last
week they said / would have to get
along by myself"
Said a woman with six children under
ten years of age whose husband has
been on the work crew for the county:
Il wouldn't ask them for a coal order.
1t is big fight every time l go down
there for a food order"
Said a father whose child needed
shoes, My little girl has been out OF
school for week because the worker
said she would have to get the order
approved and HASN'T got the OK yet"
One mother with two babies said
We got cut off today-no food order.
Ny old man wouldn't work on that
Bean Gang for $3.50 an hour"
A man who was willing to work was
saying, They had three guys working
outside last week when it was Is be-
low. Clothes not too good either"
The paper had many statements
about the marvel of putting men to
work who had never worked before.
How can the office people be so sure
Of this when the family assistance
clients are locked out of the welfare
offices from May until September? In
some counties no applications are taken
until December. In fact. when there is
work in summer, the people are work
ing. or they would not be alive to show
up for winter relief.
Here is one last example about saw
ng money. A man in Great Falls has

Americas oldest labor union,

The Washington local of the

Face Quiz on
Outside Jobs

The District Commissioners
plan to take up reports this
week on the outside job activi-
ties of top city government
employees.
These officials include C. T.
Nottingham, chief of the divi-
sion of licenses and permits.
Mr.. Nottingham's connections

Mr. Nottingham is a vice

The Commissioners expect to
take up the matter on Tuesday
when Commissioner John B.
Duncan is due back from a
vacation.
The Commissioners called for
the outside job reports in order
to screen out any conflict of
interest situations. If any cases
are found, the employees will be
asked to drop the outside posi-
tionS.
Mr.. Nottingham has said
that he was given top level
clearance on taking an outside
job in 1850. The then president
of the board of commissioners,
John Russell Young, approved
the acceptance of the outside
job, Mr.. Nottingham said.

Nina II HDuplicated Columbus Voyage

SAN SALVADOR. Bahamas R - Nina II. copy of Columbus smallest ship or his new world voyage. lay peacefully at anchor off this little island yesterday after her nine-man crew sailed her here from Palos, Spain.
 The crew duplicated Columbus voyage of 1892 right down to the simple foodZand primitive navi= gational equipment = and his first new world landfall, San Salvador.
 Headed by Capt. Carlos Etayo, Al, of Pamplona, Spain, the crew attended mass in Our Holy Saviour Church celebrated by Father Antonio Sagaseta, 46, priest and crew member.
 The crew members, in addition to Etayo and Father Antonio, are Nicholas Bedoya,Z Z69, retired naval officer: Jose Valenciz, 39. fisherman; Robert Marx, 28, skin diver: Michel Vialars. 29, a veter- marian; and seamen Antonio Aguirre. 42. Manuel Darnaude, B, and Jose Ferrer, 38, the ships cook.
 They were close-mouthed about details of their 76 days at sea at the request. of Marx. who hopes to sell exclusive stories and movie rights about the voyage. They ap- peared happy and fit. Every man was bearded.
 All wore the long stockings and baggy sleeved shirts of 18th Gen. tury Spain. Some carried swords.
 Information which some crew members spilled before Marx hush ed them included report that while the ships food supply was adequate, serious shortage of fresh water developed during the last three weeks of the trip, forcing the crew to drink sea water mixed with wine.

 Ferret can tap Soviet mieroWave telephone links and pinpoint mis- sile launch sites by their radio guidance signals.

Report Shows Venus Has No Magnetic Field

PHILADELPHIA tF = Mariner 2's historic fly-by Venus indicates the cloud=shrouded planet may have longer days and nights than her sister planet, Earth.
 Scientists said "Wednesday first reaortS from Mariner indicate Venus has lit. or no magnetic field.
 Observations were based on the only data analysed so far from the tape-recorded reports made when Mariner passed within 2l,6oo miles of Venus on Dec.. II.
 The lack of magnetic field, they said, could be because of slow rotation. Earth turns on it's axis every 24 hours, providing the 24- hour day. Venus. however. about the same size as earth, may take considerably longer.
