At the early morning hearing be-
fore he committee, Leonard
Schulz, Dillon attorney, presenting
the case for the REAs, said SB 1914
did not favor either the co-opera-
tive or the private utility, but it
did tell the private utility to keep
'its hot little hands off our custo-
mers''
Schulz noted that a State Supreme
Court decision has said the Montana
| Legislature has used more restrictive
language in its law than any other
state, therefore it is up to the legis-
lature to change it if REAs are to
be protected.
1914 would change the law to say
that if service is presently available
in rural area either by private or
cooperative the other one can not
go into that area. And it would also
provide that if d cooperative is pres
emily serving a rural area and that
area is subsequently annexed to the
city the cooperative still has the
right to serve the areas it has been
serving.
The Dillon attorney said the REA
in his area had been kept cup to it's
neck in litigation by the Montana
Power Company.
SD 1914 was opposed by guess who!
R. D. Corette, lobbyist for Montana
Power Company; Cal Robinson of the
Pacific Power & Light; and George
Taylor, speaking for Montana-Da Dakota
Utilities.
The pitch that so deeply touched
the hearts of the ajority of the Sen
ate committee and prompted them to
vote against the REAs was the lament
about Competition "tax Unequal
ity", "loan availability to REAs'', by
the private utility spokesman.
Also appearing against the bill was
former Congressman Yves D'Ewart,
lobbyist for the Farm Bureau, who
said his organization believes the fed
orally financed REAs and RTAs

Which One Came to Helena?
Mule Driver
Mentality Wins

Nobody taught Bill Beam
(R-Yellowstone) to ride the
mule he used to get to school
if he fell off he had to get
back on and try again without
anyone shown him how, yo'
awl heah. If this bit of bucolic
reminiscing from the Mississippi
pi bayous didn't roll them in
the aisles, it about summed up the
attitude of House members who OPP
posed HB 100 which would have set
up a statewide driver training pro-
gram in the Montana high schools.
Milo Jensen (R-Lake) had saved
100 from an adverse committee re-
port last week in a tie vote that was
broken by acting speaker Fred Brood
er (R-Flathead), but he lost it Tues
day, after two attempts to keep it

SB 1914, commonly referred to as
the Territorial Integrity Bill, was sup

operatives in an attempt to protect
their historic service areas against a
restrictive state law which permits
pirating of customers by the private
utilities.
Joe McElwain (R-Powell), and
Washington, d. c. lobbyist for Mon
tana Power Company, took a whack
at it on the floor of the Senate
Wednesday afternoon and made it
look as if the rural electrics in Mon
tana are guilty of aggravated assault
on the powerful, wealthy, intrenched,
private utility.
The McElwain attack on the rural
electrics went far afield of the bill
the Senate was being asked to
consider. His statements indicated
the patron-owned cc-ops exist only
through the Iargess and sufferance
of the Montana Power Company,
at best, and MPCo. isn't about to
allow them any less restrictive
state laws.
Whether the law being sought by
the co-ops is fair or not did not enter
into the Powell county Senator's tt
rade. He lit into the rural electric
with both feet, condemning
the program from start to finish. He
damned them with faint praise by
saying they had done marvellous
Job, then slapped them NIGHTLY by
saying they wanted to take over the
private utilities or at least that
IS what Clyde Ellis general manager
Of the National Rural Electric Asso-
has as his goal, McElwain
stated.
The real purpose of the bill was
lost in the Power Company propa-
ganda spiel against the whole REA
program.

Revomp of Financial District
Law Hurdles IFS First Obstacle

Interstate financing problems, he was
reluctant to seeing the door opened
to 'raiding the surplus of Interstate
funds" in District 8, comprising the
Missoula area. That district, he said,
is the only district that does have
substantial funds at hand for the In
terstate, and that situation has arisen
because in seven years only four jobs
had been let to contract in the dis
trict. He suggested that it would not
be in the best interests of his 600
union operators or Missoula as
whole to permit passage of 194-that
the result would be short-changing
District 8 in order to bail out other
districts.
The union leader was frankly con-
cerned that, should HB 1914 pass and
political considerations entered into
the picture, the Missoula district with
only fraction of the population of
the financially hard-put districts en-
comprising Great Falls, Helena and
Billings, would fare badly in the
awarding of Interstate contracts.
spokesman attempted to al
leviate his fears ON this by pointing
out that once section of highway
was programmed it had to be finished

Representatives of unions, speak
ing not alone for their members, but
the unorganized, too, appealed to leg
islative committees to restore the
original intent of the Unemployment
Compensation Law, so that Montana
workers, jobless through no fault of
their own, might again be eligible for
weekly benefits, might avoid the in
dignity attendant with having to seek
welfare in order to survive the winter
months of a seasonal economy.
Both employers and labor are
concerned over the gradually weak

In spite of fears expressed
that should HB 1914 be enacted,
some financial districts could
be shortchanged on Interstate
Highway construction, the bill
was given a do-pass by the
House Highway Committee
Wednesday evening, following
a brief public hearing.
Highway spokesman, Attorney Don
MACPHERSON and Engineers Lewis
Chittim and Art Quinnell,. contended
that the districting law seriously han
dicaps the programming and con-
struction of long stretches of the
superhighway, thus resulting in the
program being carried on a patch
here, patch-there basis. Under ques-
tioning, they admitted that some dis
tricts, such as the one in which Hell
ena is located, are 'sbroke" due to the
extremely expensive construction of
the controversial Wolf Creek Canyon
route Eliminating the Interstate from
the limitations of the Financial Dis
trict Law, they contended, would
make possible the shifting of funds
from one area to another, so that
more orderly program could be car
ried on in the 10 years remaining to
complete the system by the state
agency, or "the federals will take
over" and complete it for the state.
Highway spokesman, employing the
all-too-common "vital to national de-
Tense" theme in bolstering their case
SO that 1--WE can attract tourists from
Canada, etc., in the opinion of this
reporter, greatly weakened their case
by an excess of "flag-waving"
Spokesman against lib 1914 were
Joe Crosswhite, Kahspell, of Operat-
ing Engineers 371, and Robert Har-
ris, Kalispell, executive secretary of |
Montana State Council of Carpenters,
who concurred with Crosswhite's COM
ments.

ported this week. Reason CIV

would not permit a bill to be ac-
cepted and chance to be considered
by the legislative body. He said it
was ga disgrace and shame, and
he did not think there was a prece-
dent for this high handed action in
the past century.
He suggested the congeniality of
the past days, the friendly hand
shaking and pleasantries had all the
time been a dagger at the throats of
the minority.
He accused the majority of want
ing to make the property tax so
unbearable the people would sue
cumb to sales tax in desperation.
Rep. Watt felt Haughey had taken
unfair advantage because he had
made his pitch against the bill before
he made the motion to table which
denied Aasheim a chance to say any
thing.
Rept. Twedt said there had been 400
bills introduced and many would be
killed but no one had felt it necessary
to be granted the right to introduce
any of them that it was not
his understanding that bills were in
troduced only on the premise they
would have to have the approval of
the majority.
In all the sound and fury the con-
tents of the bill had no bearing be-
cause at the point of introduction
no members of the House had any
way of knowing what it provided.
While the parliamentary move
by Haughey was Gin the book" it
was an arbitrary show of force by
the majority which if allowed to
stand could be dangerous prece-
dent.

ana 1Ortn between the TWO
parties.
So unfriendIy and antagonistic was
the reaction to the fast and unprece-
denied parliamentary maneuver that
Rep. Haugihey took the first oppor-
tunity to ''save face" the following
morning. Rep. Wayrynen, minority
floor leader, condemned the action in
a statement before the House, and
Haughey made motion to revive
the bill so it could go through the
routine legislative processes.
There are those who believe
Haughey arbitrarily took the lead
ership away from the Majority
Floor Leader and the Speaker.
They may have been as surprised
and shocked as was everyone else.
Members of the majority party
were heard to express their dis
approval of the move after the
House adjourned for the day, but

allowed the bill to be tabled leaves
little doubt they voted with him.

Before making his motion to table
HB 401 Haughey made a little pitch
against it, saying that nobody wanted
any increase in taxes, that President
Kennedy was encouraging a tax de-
crease and he 'didn't think the House
wanted to discuss this type of legis-
lation"
A motion to table can not be de-
bated, therefore Aasheim was cut off
from chance to say anything after
the motion had been put.
Rising to a point OF personal privi-
lege following the vote the three
Democrats who were listed as spon-
sors of the bill had a chance to ex-
press their opinions on the action.
