THREE STAGE PLAN FOR
GENERAL DISARMAMENT

The basic outline of the plan we
have produced calls for three stages
of movement toward general and
complete disarmament.
Stage one suggests 80 per cent
reduction across the board in major
ornaments over three-year period,
including establishment of an inter
national disarmament organization,
which would gradually undertake the
notification procedures. Then at the
end of the three-year period, there
would be an intermission, during
which a review would be undertaken
to verify compliance with the agree
ments.
During stage two, another 80
per cent reduction over a three-year
period would be carried out. Addi-
tional international institutions, and
an international peace force, would
be either developed or at least begun.
We would also require acceptance by
the United States of the jurisdiction
of an international court of justice.
Then, following another inter
mission for review, the third and
final stage would begin. We have set
no time limit on this third stage be-
cause here nations start to move
toward a situation where they would
have only sufficient forces to main
tain internal order, and conflicts be-

the same old machine methods" de-
veloping which are the baneful feature
of old party politics and at the next
convention meeting in Great Falls we
decided that that method was not the
solution and let the movement die a
natural death since within a few years
progressives and public-minded indi
viduals would have to be fighting
their own creation.
Since that time I have given sew
eral years of concentrated thought and
study to the problem and the solution
1 have to offer is the adoption of a
NON-PARTISAN PRIMARY.
This would give the voters the OPP
portunity to vote split ticket" just
as he does in the general election, thus
providing the opportunity to select
the candidates best qualified for the
office sought.
Being always an Independent voter
have found candidates on both tickets
that believed best qualified q must
admit here that have found very few
on the Republican ticket but there are,
of course, exceptions) and since there
were several more desirable on the
other ticket 1 could not vote for
few on the opposite ticket whom I
deemed better qualified than their
opponents.
We use the nonpartisan primary for
election of judges and there is no
reason why the primary should not be
simply an elimination of the least de-
sirable candidates, with the general
election really determining the choice
of the majority of the voters.
Some may say that this method
would destroy party responsibility but
this is an error which can be easily
demonstrated with further discussion
which I will be glad to undertake if
sufficient interest is expressed. Let's
hear more on this suggestion both

Wyoming COP Ducked
Issue Until In Power
The Peoples Voice

The Peoples Voice
During the last three elections, /
was a candidate for the State Legisla-
ture from Yellowstone County. During
all three campaigns our Republican
opponents vigorously denied that they
favored sales tax. They just as vigor-
ously denied favoring a "right-to-
work" law.
For several years I have been in
sisting that the Republican party in
Montana continues to increase our
property tax in order to force the
people to come to them on Bonded knee
and beg for a sales tax.
On November 2, James Haughey Or
Yel.), chairman of the House Judiciary
Committee, told the Hotel-Motel con-
vention in Billings that "exorbitant
and excessive" property taxes will
probably be raised even higher, that
the income tax field has largely been
appropriated by the federal govern
ment', and that 'the only untapped
source of revenue is the sales tax.
The Wyoming COP was silent about
ssright-to-work" law during it's
convention, but after 1T seized con-
troy of the Senate and House and
Governors mansion, it quickly
passed "right-to-wOrk" law.
If the Republicans are successful in
Montana next year, we will definitely
have a sales tax and "right-to-w work"
law in Montana. Sincerely yours -
at Law, Billings.

When the Arms Control and Dis
armaent Agency was set up almost
two years ago by the Congress, it was
directed toward the long-range OBJ
jective of general and complete dis
armament in peaceful world, start
ing perhaps with arms control. Now
this does not mean, as some people
think, that the emphasis should be
on peace at any price. Our aims must
always be consistent with the support
and maintenance of national secur-
ity.
AS for short-range detectives, we
would like to achieve as soon as we
can downturn in the spiraling arms

AS you reduce, there are two i'm
portant problems Specification and
the international institutions. Veri-
fication gives us tremendous diff
Guilty, because even before the 1917
Revolution, the Russians always had
great emphasis on secrecy. The Rus
sian people have been governed under
this method down through the genera
tions, and in their opinion, secrecy is
a tremendous asset. For instance. we
have even agreed that inspectors
could be flown with blacked-out win
dows by Soviet pilots to where we
think the suspicious event has taken
place, so that no other observations
could be made; yet the Russians some
how feel this would still be breach
of their secrecy.
Another Important roadbIock lies
in determining the nations who should
come under such agreements. There
could be some bilateral agreements
between the u. S. and u. S. S. r.
which would help start the down.
turn, but there are others which must
include the NATO and Warsaw Pact
countries. At some point, too, the
great potential military powers like
China and India must be included.
Question by FORUM Editor)-
In view of the roadblocks which
you have mentioned, how optimistic
are you that we can reach our
goals?
I am certainly optimistic. But
cannot see just how long it will take
to do it.
We must recognize that the end
result of general disarmament would
mean a tremendous revolution in
political relationships, the state of
the world, and in the state of inter-
national legal relationships. This is
something we want to accomplish in
a reasonably short time, and yet it
means a change in a situation which
has developed over perhaps $500
years.
However, the present direction
is an absolutely certain direction
for destruction within a finite Pc
riod of time. 1t is a collision course.
We must make clear why we want
TO achieve a downturn in the arms
race. why we believe it is practical,
and why it is in the interest of the
whole world.

Much Farm Land
Being Converted
For Recreation

On national basis, 9,816 soil con-
servation district co-operators have
entered the outdoor recreation field
and an additional 9,075 intend to
establish one or more recreation en-
terprises, the Sos reports. In all,
39,685 district co-operators have con-
sidered including recreation for
profit in their operations.
A total of 945 district co-operators
switched from other farming activi-
ties to recreation, involving 237, 691
acres of land. Another 1862 coop
orators intend to convert 511,780
acres. This is widespread throughout
the 1880 districts that include 81
per cent of the nations farms and
ranches.
Nationally, of the 39,685 who con-
sidered adding recreation to their
operation, 6,469 are in the northeast;
1856 in the southeast; 9,777 in the
Cornbelt; 11,34O in the Great Plains,
and 3,244 in the west.
Of the 9,816 who established one

nary source of income, 1877 are in the
ortheast; 1873 in the southeast; 325

race, because a continuation certain
ly threatens the peace of the world.
In fact, it is a menace to the very
survival of the world as we know it.
Aside from the obvious danger of
nuclear war, a continuation of the
arms race represents a serious drain
on our nations resources, in terms
of technical and scientific brain
power, dollars, and other things
needed for some of our newly-de-
veloped techniques.
One of these short-range goals that
is very ecesSary-and which has just
been achieved-is a limited nuclear
test ban. Communications between
the opposite sides should be improved,
too, toward the end of preventing a
possible accidental war by miscalcu-
lation or mistake. We are pleased that
the Soviet has accepted our proposal
for direct communications link be-
tween Moscow and Washington.
Question by FORUM Editor)-
Are our chances of achieving a
downturn today greater than two
years ago because we are stronger
militarily?
Part of our strength today, versus
two years ago, lies in the other side
recognizing more clearly some of the
dangers of nuclear exchange. In
order to obtain any agreements, it
is clear that we cannot negotiate I'M
less we are strong in the beginning.
However, this should not lead to
the thought that we should, there
fore, continue to build up still furth-
er, if we can get the agreements to
start a downturn. 1t is perfectly pos
sible to move in a balanced, safe |
guarded fashion toward reduced arms, |
with neither side reducing its ma
tional security.
Question by FORUM Editor)-
What do you see as some of the
obstacles or roadblocks which might
keep us from reaching these goals?
First, we must realize that this is
the most complex subject
ever approached in an attempt to for
nulate foreign policy. 1t engages in
economic, political, military, scien-
ific, technical, psychological, and So
iol aspects of our society. Tt is quite
that there is SUBJ
tantial body of opinion-on national,
tate, and local levels-which fails to
understand what we are proposing.
80 the first roadblock lies in this pos
ible lack of understanding.
