FIG, Like Other Boards, Uses
Open Meeting Law to Ban Press

The Fish and Game Commits
sion this week expressed de-
light with the bastard" open
CD meeting law passed by the
last session of the Legislature.
Then they, like Highway and
the State Board of Education,
proceeded to make liberal use
of their executive session"
powers assured by a law which
was originally intended to pro-
tect the public and press from
the abuses of executive ses-
sions".
Common courtesy had held Off
cial arrogance somewhat in check be-
fore enactment of the open session
law which got twisted into a mon
ster during its birth in the Legisla-
ture.)
The open session law as it now
stands allows the state to extract
taxes from you right before your
eyes but your eyes are not decent
enough to see how the "blood"
taken from you is dissipated.
The law says first that in cases
of national or state security the meet
ing can be closed. If national security
is entrusted to state agencies then
L
security best rests with the people
not those who have their feet in the
public trough. 4

eight years old, now has the distinc-
ton of being the credit union with
more members and more assets than
any other credit union in Montana,
the Dakotas, Wyoming or idaho. Dur
ing 1961-62, the president of the
Malmstrom Federal Credit Union
was Col. Robert V. Whitlow, who just
recently went with the Chicago Cub
Baseball Club as athletic director.
Newly elected president of the group,
Lit. Col. George V. Leffler, has ap-
pointed a four-man building COM
mittee to investigate site and build
ing plans to be supplemented by fall
of this year.
During 1862, the credit unions
educational program and personnel
policies have been topics of feature
articles in the Bridge Magazine, of
ficial publication of the Credit Union
National Association. Major Robert
E. Bruskotter of 2625-6th Avenue
North, and Treasurer, and David L.
Bryan of 2008-5th Street North
west, manager, have worked closely
for the past two years in guiding this
local credit union to it's present posi-
ton of national prominence.

More on Freight
Car Shortage

WASHINGTON, d. president
John Budd of the Great Northern
Railway Co. last week expressed his
thanks to Senators Mansfield and
Metcalf for their cosponsorship with
Washington Sen. Warren E. Magnu-
son and others of S 1868, which would
give the Interstate Commerce Com
mission authority to prescribe per
diem charges for use of railroad
freight cars. Eastern railroads would
be more likely to build more cars or
get cars back to western lines more
promptly if higher charges were
made for their use of another COM
pany's rolling stock. Budd said en-
actment of the bill is essential to
creation of adequate national fleet
of railroad cars. Budd's letters to the
two Senators said:
Notwithstanding our acquisi-
ton of new cars and our deter
mined effort to maintain our car
fleet in good order, we have at the
present time less boxcars on line
than at any time since 1922, ex-
cept for three-month period dur
ing World War II.
GAS of March Is, the total num-
Der of boxcars on our line for use
of our customers represented only
1913 per cent of the boxcars we
own. This results from the failure
of other railroads to purchase or
build and to keep in repair their
fair share of the national car fleet.
| think enactment of S 1868 is es-
sential to the creation of an ade-
quate national railroad car fleet"

banding program to prove that the
ducks in eastern Montana cross the
continental divide so the Pacific Fly
way which allows a greater bag limit

if they go to the Central Flyway.

WOULD FILENE APPROVE
TODAY'S Gu OPERATION?

What would the man who started
all of this say if he could view credit
unions operations today? Would he
approve of members borrowing fo1
vacations? How would he feel about
the rather limited field credit unions
as cooperative organizations, have
defined for themselves? A year be-
fore his death in 1887, Filene put his
thoughts on the future of credit
unions in words and today these
words ring like those of prophet.
He said:
'tAs to how the credit unions
shall employ the great financial
power which is coming to them,
| find myself most eager observ-
err. believe that they will use this
power in line with the development
of mass production and mass dis
tribution and that (they) will de-
velop thrift among their members
by the encouragement of processes
which would have seemed anything
but thrifty twenty-five years ago.
believe for instance, that they will
encourage wise spending; that they
will not develop competitive CO.
operatives after the manner of the
old-time European organizations
but will help to finance consump-
ton of all sorts of comforts and
even Iuxuries, such as automobiles,
radio sets, electric refrigerators
and household appliances, even
domestic and foreign travel, wher-
ever the production of these things
is carried on according to the most
scientific mass production prin-
ciples and therefore at the lowest
possible prices. They will encour-
age their members to borrow, be-
lieve, not merely to tide them
selves over emergencies but to

held just over 1919 of outstanding
consumer installment credit in the
United States. Consumer installment
credit means the kind of loan we
make to finance our cars or major
appliances. More and more of this
type credit, among all lenders, is
being extended for what has tradi-
tionally been cash outlay items. To-
day many consumers are borrowing
for vacations, schooling, purchase OF
minor appliances and even marriage,
clothing, etc. Fifteen years ago, credit
unions held less than go of this con-
sumner credit total.
Here in Great Falls, the 10 local
credit unions hold an even higher
percentage of the total consumer
credit than the 1920 national fig
ure. Out of a total of $3O,161,-
627.0O in consumer credit out
standing at year-end, 1862, credit
unions held $5,852, $4,000, or

The credit union idea was borrowed
from Germany where it began just
about 100 years ago and its expansion
in this country was financed by mil
honaire philanthropist Edward A. FL
lene of Boston, Massachusetts. Filene
first saw "credit union" in opera
ton in rural India while on a world
tour. There he found destitute resi-
dents Joined in cooperative credit
society to protect themselves from
usurious rates of the local money
lenders. AS a successful retailer he
knew the pitfalls plaguing the Amer
lean credit scene. He knew the dan
gers of dried money springs. He be-
lieved that when a million little men
needed fifty dollars and couldn't get
it the effect on the national economy
was more serious than when steel
company needed fifty million dollars
and couldn't get it. Here, in credit
unions, was the oil can for an eco
nomic machine which occasionally
ran dry from misuse.
And so the idea in this country
was born-just So years ago. Form
ing these associations was slow work
and it wasn't until Filene hired a.
man to go out and get state legisla-l
ton passed in the various states that
any appreciable progress was shown.
In the meantime, many commercial
banks awoke to the truth that the
average man is honest and will repay
his debts.
The depression of the 30's and the
land booms and busts of the 20's
taught the lesson that commercial
and business loans were, in the long
run, the most risky.

Between commercial banks and
credit unions locally there is a good
and friendly relationship. Very little
is heard about charges of subsidy,
unfair advantage, etc. When these
questions do come up, the credit union
officials are quick to point out that
the federal office which charters,
supervises and examines credit unions
operates solely on fees and charges
paid by the credit unions and requires
no tax monies for its operations. The
10 local credit unions, like almost
every type organization today, have
their own chapter and meet monthly.
Officials of the credit unions attend
these meetings to learn more about
credit union operations and about
technical aspects of their particular
jobs. Public relations, family finan-
cial counseling, cooperative use of
major equipment items and central
lied bookkeeping are topics of cur
rent discussion in the chapter.

FEDERAL ACT ENACTED
IN 1884

In 1884 President Franklin Roose-
welt signed the Federal Credit Union
act and, for the first time, credit
unions could be organized any place
under United States jurisdiction.
Just a year later, in 1885, the
first credit union in Great Falls
was organized when the teachers
in Great Falls public schools formed
their own credit union under the
provisions of the new law. Paul
Walker and Elmo Bofto, two vet
eran teachers, head this group to-
day as president and treasurer,
respectively.
Employees of the Paris Store and
the Home Oil Refining Company
(now Phillips) followed suit the next
year 1880.
The newest credit union in Great
Falls is the Super Save Employees
Credit Union. organized in 1859 with
the help of Merrill Plummer, treas
urer of the Great Falls Cooperative
Federal Credit Union, who served as
volunteer organizer of the group. 1t
wasn't until the postwar boom of
consumer credit nationally, however,
that credit unions really began to
grow and to multiply.
Although credit unions today ex-
coed commercial banking offices in
the United States by almost 5000, |
they still hold very small percentage
(under 800 of total personal savings |
in the country.
Just what credit unions do is
mystery to many who have never
heard of one or to those who have
never Cor cannot) join one. They
are pretty much organizations of en-
ployees, each one being formed with
in the employee group of one COM
pany at one location. They join to-
gether to encourage savings and to
make credit available to members at
reasonable cost. Interest on loans
can never exceed / 20 per month on
unpaid balances and dividends on
savings range from go to SO, with
Az % to 51z % becoming more and
more common among credit unions
today.

CREEP STUDIED
Standards Bureau Sets Open House Saturday

That equals the weight of a
freight train with 100 loaded
cars"
We went TO another building
where for two years men have
been staring at three concrete
cylinders placed on top of each
other in a frame. They were
studying creep.
II was explained that many
materials, like concrete, contin-
uously deform under constant
load. The lightweight concrete
cylinders have been subjected
to a sustained load of 1000
pounds per square inch in
spring-loaded frame.
This shortening-or creep--is
measured over a period Of years
by gauge points embedded In
concrete. II is necessary TO find
the amount Of creep in light
weight concrete used In places
where you desire the least
amount OF weight, such as tall
buildings. Another example was
In concrete ships used In World
War /. That seemed as good a
place as any TO have the light
est concrete you could find.
Speaking Of paper, we came
TO a test that finally seemed
easy TO understand. A man was

we do is take the test methods
