Truffie Tips & Talk

Chrl stmas is the most Joyous
season of the year. 1t has many
times been said that if the Christ
mas spirit prevailed throughout the
entire year, this cid world of ours
would be a much better place in
which TO live Likewi Sc, if we
would resolve at this Christmas
to practice better driving habits,
perhaps the change for the better
would become daily habit.
The most trea sured gift we
could give our friends and families
would be the assurance that we will
be pre- sent to share in the fes-
tiVities of the holiday season with
those we love. Each of us must
resolve that a traffic mishap will
not create an empty place at the
table, or that gaily wrapped pack
ages under the tree will remain
unopened.
Traditionally, holidays are the
periods when traffic fatalities
reach peak. Some estimates set
the increased danger rating at IS
percent above compar able periods,
and the Christmas holidays are the
most hazardous to warrant the use
of every practical means to con-
centrate OH safe driving.
Chrl stmas is time of enjoy
ment, and properly used, the auto
mobile can enhance that Joy. So
for our own sake, and the sake of
our loved ones, let us make this a
safe Chri istmas. Let US also look
beyond Christmas, and play it safe
every day of the yer.

but he knows that it pays to have the
union on your side.
The United Textile Workers started
an organizing drive ait the u. S. Rub
Der plant here and Howell's wife,
Aulene, became an active union sup
porter. Suddenly Howell was fired
from his job at the local paint COM
pany. The UTW filed charges against
the firm. The regional board of the

held the charge, directed that Howell
be reinstated with full back pay.

Editor,

Helena, Montana
Dear Sir:
Frankly Speaking; Indeed he did
and on a subject with which he is
apparently very unfamiliar.
l doubt that the people in this
State are yet ready for an article,
such as Frank Small has written,
which was in very bad taste and so
entirely disconnected that have
failed to grasp the similarity in the
comparisons he has tried to make.
BY his own admission he has never
been to Hardin. Yet he can smell
the swannps west of town. Is he re-
ferring to the dry land bench where
little Stormy Timberman was found.
AS for our false fronts of Main
Street, these can be found in any
town be it Hardin, Helena or New
York City.
'The Mob walked in Hardin; This
is very true but they were walking
she was still alive. They are still
walking, trying to find the abductor
of Julie Ann who had been found
alive just five days before after a
disappearance of II hours. The mob
is not stalking a stranger to lynch
him; they are trying to prevent an
other tragedy.
Julie AIMS abductor may still be
at large. He may be in Hardin and
he may be in Helena. We are ON the
alert in Hardin. Are you exercising
the same precautions in Helena? We
don't want it to happen again. I am
sure if this happens there you will
also be a little fearful of strangers
as well as your own townsfolk. Of
course we hoped it would be a strang-
err rather than one of our own towns
folk; this is simply human nature.
l am sure if Mr.. Small discussed
this with our law enforcement Off
GERS he would find that we are no
where near being moral disaster
l think that because of our sad ex-
periences we may be just a little more
alert than most places.
Yes, Mr.. Small, you are the ''strang-
err as you have stated in your article.
You are the Stranger trying to stir
up trouble for law-abiding citizens
who are working long and hard to
avert another tragedy, if possible.
You are a real Stranger to the facts
of this case. You would have to be
a Stranger or Pm sure you would
not have criticized us as you did.
Untold hours are being expended
to protect the children of Hardin.

Metals Bank Has No
Position On So-Called
'Right-to-Work Proposal
Editor, The Peoples Voice

Editor, The Peoples Voice
Dear Mr.. Billings:
The Peoples Voice issue of October
4, 1863, contained a story relating to
the Montana Citizens Group and quoted
a letter from this organization dated
September 8, 1868. This letter stated,
among other things, that Mr.. John e.
O'Neill, Vice President of the Metals
Bank & Trust Company, was one of
the three named repositories for the
Committee for Constitutional Govern
ment. An asterick following Mr..
O'NeilPs name referred to a footnote
in The Peoples Voice stating that John
E. ONeill was the same John O'Neill
who is a member of the State Board
of Education and the bank of which
he is a Vice President is Anaconda
Company owned.
I wish to take this opportunity to
explain that the Metals Bank & Trust
Company in Butte is not directly or
Indirectly owned or controlled by The
Anaconda Company AS a matter of
fact The Anaconda Company does not
own any stock in either the Metals
Bank & Trust Company or in it's par
emit corporation, The First Bank Stock
Corporation.

Regents Edsfern--
From Page l


ern have been attempting to sell to
the past Legislatures and that is
that it wouldn't cost anything to
add liberal arts degree at Eastern.
The statement leaves no room to
question that additional degrees can
be added only by large financial
transfusions, to our University Sys-
tenn"
Bardanouve then quoted from Bah
cocks estate of the State" message
to the 1868 Legislature, "The goal
of the master plan study is that of
making certain that each tax dollar
spent for higher education contrib
utes fully to the objective of quality
and that waste and unnecessary du-
plication are avoided
To which he commented, zone can
only wonder what political pressures
have been exerted to make the adj
ministrat ion-c ontrolled Board of Re-
gents abandon this goal"
Veteran Capitol correspondent Luke
Wright in the Great Falls TRIBUNE
went step further and examined
Bardanouve's "final resting place of
mail order catalogs'. After studying
the Durham and other reports which
brought out the overlay of boards
and administrative posts, Wright
concluded that perhaps the solution
to a part of our ills could be single
president for all the units.
However the true basis is money.
S and & figures must be faced,
even by Regents. The building pro-
gram, already at least five years
behind schedule to meet the de-
mand now facing us, is going TO
cost in figures so respectable that
no politician will mention them
until you have been carefully
placed under ISOLATION.
Now pending before Congress is
a partial solution in the education
bill which calls for state matching
funds. Outright grants are really
what is required to get us back on
the track. The Legislature if it does
not meet in special session soon can
only offer to the voters bond issue
which would almost certainly be de-
feated at the polls. The need for
buildings and additions to the salary
budgets are all equitable in dollars
and they must come forth. This prob
EN- is SO acute that to neglect to call
4 special session will truely be re-
and accountable for at
he polls.-FS
