Fraser Speaks Out
Against Gambling

Mr.. Douglas f. Kennedy, Editor
| True Magazine
| 81 West 44th Street
| New York, New York
| Dear Sir:
In replying to your letter of October
| in which you requested my views on
legalized gambling, / would like to
state the following:
Far be it from me to take the spirit
of adventure out of our American life
but in the field of gambling, it seems
to me that too many people fail to
tell the difference between being a
good sport and the rear end of a horse.
While we may think that we are not
our brothers keeper, and so say, the
! truth of the matter is that when our
brother loses his paycheck in gambling,
we end up buying our brothers chill
dren beans and shoes. Isn't gambling
somewhat like garbage in that we
keep garbage in the alley, although
we all know we have it. So do we know
that there is gambling going on from
time to time. That as an official, it
seems to me that it is my obligation
to do that which can to keep it out
of sight and out of temptation, that
is out of reach of those who cannot
afford this sort of past time. How too,
can parents teach their children the
right ways of living if there is
gambling establishment in the corner
of the town.
have heard it said that gambling is
great asset to the taxpayers of
Nevada. This 1 fail to see, as ON a re-
cent "trip across that state, I noticed
that Nevada now has a.. sales tax.
would. like TO point out that as of now
Montana, Xix ewise a western sparse1y
settled state, still does not have a
sales atax.. OF course, 1 would be the
last to say that our gambling, or lack
of gambling rather, has had anything
to do with this, but make the point.
oppose gambling more from an eco
nomic point of view than from a moral
one, really, for I'm not sure that it
actually is d moral problem. do know
that we cannot build cities, states, or
empires on gambling. AS for the ques-
ton as to whether not it would
relieve taxation, my own opinion is
that gambling would increase the tax
burden on the American people, and
/ am sure it would increase the tax
burden in Montana were we to 1egalize
gambling in this state.
1 can appreciate beautiful woman,
a good steak, or a fast horse as much
as anyone, but you must now put me
down on the list of Mayors opposing
legalized gambling in any form.
Sincerely yours,
WILLARD e. FRASER,
Mayor of Billings.

Kennedy Predicts
Cut In Work Week

Heretofore cool ITO the idea of 6
shorter work week, President Ken
nedy indicated change in attitude
on his conservation tour of the west.
In his address at huge reservoir
project in California, Kennedy de-
clared:
"The country is changing. We had
a 58-hour week, 48-hour week.. a
4O-hour week. AS machines take more
and more of the jobs of men, we are
going to find the work week re-
duced."
This will, he added, create more
leisure time, with people wondering
what they should do" All the more
reason, he added, why natural re-
sources should be conserved and de-
veloped for the peoples enjoyment
in their leisure time.

ADMINISTRATION FLUBBED
ON TWO OCCASIONS

President Kennedy, Vice President
Johnson, and the clever little group
known as the Irish Malta" are not
without blame for the congressional
crisis. They had two chances in the
last year to demonstrate executive
leadership. Both were neglected.
First, there was the opening pro-
vided when the Congress was organ
lied, the opportunity to curb the
power of the diehard obstructionists
by limiting the filibuster. The liberal
Democrats and liberal Republicans,
too, begged the Administration to
stand up and fight. The President, in
what was considered "smart politics.
chose to sit that one out.
The other chance came in the bat
tie over control of the communica-
tions satellite. If the filibuster was
to be a weapon for the conservatives,
then the liberals wanted to use it,
too. They felt no private telegraph
company should be handed as gift

Young Americans
For Freedom

J Matches are usually kept out of tn,
hands of very small children who are
totally irresponsible because of mart
ural ignorance due to maturity. Yet
we give theNmuch more dangerous tools
of democratic freedom to people who
are so politically and Socia1ogica1ly i'm
mature that they must eventually ig-
mite the fire that shall burn our mod
ern Rome. Why is little unders tan ding
and no practical consideration given
| to the psychological age of people en-
| trusted with the incendiary tools of
modern educational media? And the
| power to vote, most dangerous tool
| in the hands of the psychologicaI1y
| immature and socially irresponsible,
| is freely granted entirely upon the
| basis of chronological age.
The plain truth is so. much stranger
than fiction that we just accept the
| fiction and reject the truth. The sugar
| pill of fiction is pleasant and easy to
| take, while the truth is the bitterest of
m edicines Of course the little matter
of cure depends wholly upon the bitter
| medicine which we refuse to take. Our
total social organization is out-moded
and rendered nugatory and useless to
serve the needs of the people. BY
every test of adequacy it fails dismally
to promote progress toward brighter,
happier future for humankind. But
what do we know, or care, about ade-
quacy? We use only the criterion of
nizes sin. Mother Nature recognizes
and uses only the test of adequacy. In
Nature, the wages of inadequacy is
always death!
Unfortunately, this. yardstick of
good and evil has been enticing and
appealing for very long time. Anci-
emit thinkers realized the human in
adequacy to make the Judgment of
good and evil. The little story tells
how the first man and woman were
driven from a Paradise on earth be-
cause they decided to Feat the fruit
from the forbidden tree of knowledge
of good and eviP'. Perhaps a veritable
Paradise ON this earth is possible If
would stop eating this forbidden |
fruit. These little stories came down |
through the ages with little enough |
useful truth left in them. Even a little, |
homely yarn about every day neigh |
borhood affairs often varies so much |
in the telling that it is beyond recog- |
milton by its author after having passed |
through the hands of only a few neigh
borS. What, then, can be expected of a /
story so ancient that it has been trans |
lated from several different languages |
through centuries of time? -.
At any rate, the shortcut to Heaven,
which America is supposed to be build
ing is in trouble. Double-talk and dis
sention is the order of the day. Our
modern tower of Babel shows no prom

PRICE OF PEACE
GOES UP AND UP

1t is, of course, apparent that the
Coalition is not easily appeased; re-
tanning the filibuster was not it's
final asking price. That was the
opening price and it gets higher and
higher. al
What does the coalition really
want?
First, it wants government con-
tracts, bigger and better expendi-
lures in the home states or for ia
vored contractors. Not even Barry
Goldwater, that apostle of less gov
eminent spending, has been known
to oppose contracts for Arizona or
the Southwest which, incidentally, is
among the big fbeneficiaries.
Second, it wants a guarantee that
there will be no strong civil rights
legislation.
Third, it remains firm in opposi-
ton to medicare, federal aid to edu-
cation and genuine. tax reform, for
example, decreasing the oil depletion
allowance. ~
The Administration has given
ground on almost every point, so
much so that there is no New From
tier. But the sit-down strike goes on.
AS matters now stand Congress has
approved only 81 of the Presidents
405 legislative requests, or nine per
cent of the work the administration
had marked out for 1868.
Since this is, in theory, Demo-
cratic-ruled Congress, it is going
to be little difficult for the Presi-
dent to go to the people next year
and ask for more Democrats, with
out spelling out how he intends to
cope with the problems presented
by a Congress that stays on strike
for the better part of a year.

The Do-Nothing Congress

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The SSH
Congress has now been in session
101a months and there is no thought
of getting the members "out of the
benches" before Christmas. At the
pace being pursued it will be diff
cult, if not impossible, to get action
on civil rights this year and there
probably will be no significant tax
legislation, either.
If it were James r. Hoffa call
ing nationwide truckers strike
the situation would be described
as national emergency and there
would be outraged protests against
the threat to our national security.
If any union leader pursued the
tactics now being pursued by the
powerful conservative coalition
which rules the Congress he would
be denounced for hampering the
prosecution of the cold war, and
he would be accused of aiding the
cause of Communism.
But since those involved are emil
nent lawmakers Harry f. Byrd
of Virginia, Sen. James B. Eastland
of Mississippi, and Sen. Richard Rus
sell of Georgia, to name a few-the
present congressional impasse is
looked upon merely as an amusing
exercise in domestic power politics.
1t has many aspects, but basically
the present sit-down strike is an at
tempt to demonstrate to the White
House "who is BOSS.

The liberals, though, got no White
House encouragement. Instead the
Administration deliberately encour-

buster. When the bill was passed,
over opposition from men like Ke-

legislative triumph.
In the course, though, of helping

put out that spark of fire, that
desire to get out front and help

the earmark of the liberal law

pleted. Work must be found for the
idle hands, which are on the upswing
at the Prison-from a population of
643 to now 703.
Presently it is cheaper TO buy
shoes than to have them made in the
prison because of the lack of ex-
perienced shoe men. This should be
warning to the shoemakers in the
state to stick to their lasts because
if they don't they may be working
for the state for extremely small pay.
The Girls Vocational School is get
ting potatoes and apples from the
Prison.
This all sounds cozy and sweet but
conflict manifested itself when Bah
cock openly contradicted Miss Hoover
of the Girls Vocational School when
she gave the opinion that in order
to be more effective custodial prac-
tice should be expanded to before
and after actual custody. Miss Hoover
contends that Observation-Disclosures is
poor second to the natural social
environment of a child and every
effort should be made to keep the
child in the environment no matter
how poor it may seem because of the
deteriorating effects upon persons
who are institutionalized.
Babcock told her that he thought
that the institutions should not con-
Germ themselves with these problems
the problems within the insti-
buttons are their proper concern.
Miss Hoover offered no rebuttal.
A ladylike composure came over her
but her eyes became of more cal
culating study.
The chairman became busy lauding
the efforts of the boards director,
Ed Nelson, and how much the GEN.
tralization of efforts were going to
pay off.
After the meeting pressed further
on the subject and asked him if this
Capitalization meant that the state
was going to assume a greater share
of the responsibility of institutional
management.
No, quite the contrary was to be
the boards policy. Communities were
to take up a greater share of the
load than they do now, according to
Caraway.
That's the way life goes on in
Helena. The more we see things in
togetherness the further apart we
become.
