GIMP Consolidation Hearings
Merqer Would Make Montana An
Economic and Freight Desert

Hearings on the proposed
merger of the Northern Pacific,
Great Northern and Burlington
railroads have continued in
Montana over the past week.
A rather monotonous parade
of witnesses go through the
process of presenting their
opinions to the hearing officer
in making a record to be taken
before the Interstate Commerce
Commission, before a final de-
cision is made.
Weary attorneys, who have been
with the case almost three months as
it has travelled across the country,
continue their examination and cross
examination. The record will neces-
sarily be repititous, as democratic
grass roots expression vital to the
individual and the area involved piles
UP hundreds of thousands of words.
Merger will have everlasting rami.

and the saddest thing of all is to see
sincere people appear in behalf of
merger, because they have been ap-
preached by the railroads, taken their
story at face value and joined their
voices in favor of merger. ''These
are sincere people, one of the OPP
ponents of the merger told the

carriers have told them this will make

saw curtailment of the conservation,
use and development of Montana re-
sources and adverse effects ON the
growth of the area.
He suggested that if any of the
railroads involved in this merger
were aided by land grants, the land
grants should revert to the people
in the event of merger.
The effect on the payment of land
taxes, to which Montana economy is
geared, was cause for worry, not only
of Frank Murray, but State Senator
Arnold Rieder of jefferson county.
RIEDER SEES HUGE TAX LOSS
Reider, who is also livestock OPP
orator, said the loss to his county in
taxes alone would make it necessary
for them to seek an additional source
of taxes to support their schools, per-
haps federal sources.

The National Institutes of

The forecast is based on an
estimate that the Institutes
will be spending SO billion in
that year-about three times
the current expenditure for all
Government-supported medical
research.
James A. Shannon, Institutes
director, said, Moreover, such
increases in essential research
anpower-phySicians, scien-
lists and supportive workers
will not be forthcoming unless
private and governmental activ-
tiles aimed at charging the
total pool of scientific and pro-
fessional manpower are rapidly
expanded"

to Representative Fogarty,
Democrat of Rhode Island,
chairman of a House Appropri-
ations subcommittee, which

Synod Gusts
Faculty Man
For Views

NEWARK, N. j., Mar. IA
(AP).-A Presbyterian minister
on the faculty of Princeton
Theological Seminary has been
blocked from membership in
the Presbytery of New Bruins
wick because Of his failure to
indorse the doctrine of the
virgin birth.
The Rev. DR.. John H. Hick,
40, had previously been &C
cepted by the Presbytery. It
consists of ministers and elders
from Princeton and other con-
gregations within the New
Brunswick District of the
United Presbyterian Church in
the United States Of America.
But yesterday the permanent
judicial commission of the
Synod Of New Jersey, led by
DR.. Theodore A. Rath, presi-
dent Of Bloomfield College, re-
versed the Presbytery's action.
The 15-man commission
noted that while DR.. Hick did
not deny the virgin birth
neither had he affirmed his
belief in the doctrine.
DR.. Hick said the question at
issue was whether every Pres
byterian minister must affirm
a biological miracle in connec-
ton with the birth of Christ or
whether this is a secondary
matter about which it is pos
sible for some of us to be
uncertain"
He claimed the support of
most New Testament writer's in
not founding his belief in the
incarnation of Christ ION the
virgin birth tradition"
Il would therefore not ex-
.clude from the Presbyterian
ministry those who decline to
make the Christian doctrine
stand or fall on something
inessential," he said.
He anticipated that "the
broader view" would prevail,
once the question was decided
on his appeal to the General
Assembly.
The commission acted on a
complaint by 10 ministers and
ruling elders.
All ministers who are teach
ers with tenures at the semi
nary must be members of a
Presbytery of the United Pres
byterian Church in the U. S. A.

IA (AP).-The fleets in, says
Mrs. Theresa Scozzafava-right
IN her front yard. The sprightly
T-year-old grandmother has
filed suit to have the Federal
Government pay her a parking
fee of $4,000.
Mrs. Scozzafava, who lives
IN gray, wood-shingled house
in the nearby hamlet of Jones
Point, N. Y, claims the Gov
eminent owes her the money
for anchoring about 100 ships
Of its mothball fleet in the
Hudson River in front of her
property.
Her suit, filed in February,
1860, in Federal Court, is due
to come up soon. Mrs. ScoZza-
fava told about it and her
claims against the Govern
ment in an interview for the
New York Times.
Mrs. Scozzafava, the mother
of 10, contends she has under
water rights extending $50 feet
into the Hudson along 365 feet
of shoreline. She says she
gained these rights by becom-
ing the successor to grants
made by the State of New York
dating back to 1914.
In May, 1860, the Govern
ment challenged the suit by
arguing that the court had no
jurisdiction in the matter since
the Ships-known formally as
the Hudson River reserve fleet
were in a navigable river.
But a Federal judge turned
the challenge down, ruling that
the issue would have 70 be
settled in court.
Mrs. Scozzafava is Joined in
her suit by daughter. Mary
Springfield, and the daugh-
ter'S husband, Wesley, who also
owns property along the
Hudson.
