In the thalidomide scandal, politi-
clans blamed drug firms and drug
firms blamed government. Patient
turned on doctor and doctor accused
patient of demanding too much free

obscured the facts: that nucIear genetic

Editor, The Peoples Voice:
The following is condensed from The

1--WE men are under great illusion
in thinking that we know how to make,
or are capable of making, world peace.
We have liked making war throughout
history and it is still our greatest
fascination Now that war has become
pushbutton and any child could push
the button marked .'genocide" with one
hand tied behind his back and blind
folded, war should not fascinate us as
greatly as it does.
but war now kills our lady friends
right along with our babies and chill
dren and few wives and mothers are
beginning to object. To me, even chill
dren should have a right to vote on
war and peace issues since their lives

WARS come from power politics and
the men in power since 1910, when Sir
Norman Angel wrote The Great I1lu-
sion, have not shown the slightest in
terest to stop playing power politics
while in office and in a position where
they might do something effective to
put an end to the great illusion that
anyone will or can prosper from world
domination.

Sunday Closing
The Five r. Bill

Traditionally, Sunday has long been
regarded aus % family day in Montana,
and not as a day to engage in general
labor, and it is for this historic reason
that THE MONTANA FAMILY SOCI-
ETY. is having introduced into tho
Legislature measure designed to pro-
ribit the employment of hired labor
in retail stores on any Sunday.
There has been an unhealthy tenden-
cy of some few firms lately to remain
open on Sunday, which by reason of
the unflexible laws of the market place.
will inevitably force all stores to re-
main open if it is not curbed. Obvious
~, it is not in the best interest of the
Montana Family, or the general citi-
zen-especially labor-to have this sit
uation continued. If this movement is
rot curtailed, it will work to the detri
ment of our whole Society. Not only
will the larger population centers suf-
fer, but it will work toward the further
depletion of our smaller towns. If the
people of the smaller communities
who have contributed so much to our
economic growth make % practice of
Sunday driving to the large shopping
centers-it will inevitably force the
closing of the small town stores that
are generally individually owned.
Therefore, this measure Gas the Su-
preme Court has rcognized) must be
regarded simply as a TARIFF" in the
historic American sense, designed sole
~ to encourage and protect Montana's
overall economic growth. The several
exemptions contained in the measure
provide adequately for the necessities
CT modern American life, for this is a
measure aimd at giving all Montanars

climate. In other words, this is the Bill

funds simply are not available.
these and similar improvements
are first step toward the accom-

WASHINGTON-(NFU)-
Through the facilities of the
Farmers Home Administration,
the u. S. Department of Agri-
culture has made a substantial
contribution during the last
two years to ease the pent-up
need for adequate, low-cost
farm credit.
In year-end report, the FILA said
that an estimated 1854 million in
loans were made during 1920
per cent more than in 1861 and 120
per cent more than in 1860.
More than 214,OO0 farm and
other rural families used FILA
credit in 1862, IL per cent in
crease over a year earlier and "a
per cent above 1860.
The increase in. the loans is the
result of legislation enacted in 1861
which authorized a greater volume of
loan funds to be expended and broad
cned the scope of FHA''s activities.

A truly adequate person. we have learned sees
himself as worthy individual, as one who is liked,

In much the same sense, the adequate person
