Intensified Research Needed
To Save STATES Coal Industry

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Ar
intense research program is
needed to resuscitate Mon
tana's coal industry, Rep. Ar
mold Olsen told the House this
week, following Secretary of
Interior Udall's recent signing
of a contract for construction
of a coal-to-gasoline pilot plant
in West Virginia.
Reminding his colleagues that
Montana has 1870 of the nations
total coal reserves, Congressman
Olsen said that deterioration of
the states mine output during the
past two decades is tragic. From
a wartime high of almost four
million tons, production declined
to less than four hundred thousand
tons in 1862, he pointed out.

Another Private Power Myth Exploded
AIIeqed Knowles Land
Grab, A False Alarm

MISSOULA-Only 400 acres
of public domain are involved
in what opponents of the
Knowles Dam project have
termed a Gland grab. This
fact emerged from a news con-
ference held in Missoula, last
Wednesday afternoon by Har-
old T. Nelson, regional director
of the Bureau of Reclamation.
Nelson flew to Missoula from
his home base in Boise, Idaho,
to clarity what he termed the
most colossal misunderstand-
ing he had ever seem"
Nelson reiterated that the applica-
ton for withdrawal published in the
Federal Register of August 8, which
led to great confusion and unrest
among ranchers in and around the
Knowles reservoir area in western
Montana, did not, and could not,
apply to private or Indian lands. He
added further that the implication
in the Register that 10000 acres
would ultimately be needed for the
project was erroneous.
The most recent Knowles Juror |
arose from a resolution passed by
the tribal councils of the Federated |
Salish and Kootentai Tribes in which /
they denounced what they considered
to be federal withdrawal of public
and private land within the reserva-
ton. This led to anxiety among MEM
bers of the Western Montana Stock
mems Association that their private
holdings were being Withdrawn.
Published reports of their indignation
were climaxed by the editorial i'm
plication from one of the daily news
in the area (the MISCELLANY
that federal civil servants had been
guiIdy of "sneaky' actions.

One hearing will be at Butte on

An earlier request this year by the

not go into the merits of the request.
ICC Examiner Paul Albus will be

standards of living, energy require
ments mount steadily" Congressman
Olsen said. "By every reasonable
criterion, all sources of power should
share in the upturn.
"Under the circumstances, those
families who have looked to better
times for coal as means of hveli-
hood have every reason to wonder
why the progress anticipated for the
Montana coal industry has failed to
develop"
Olsen said that the coal-to- gasoline
and other contracts signed by Secre-
tary Udall through the Office of Coal
Research offer "new hopes for ex-
banding present markets and discov-
ering new uses for coal, particularly |
in mining regions where the research |
work is to be undertaken"
Since the coal-to-gasoline project |
in West Virginia calls for testing var
ious grades of coal, Olsen suggested !,
that samples from Montana be in
cluded in the experimentation. He
also said that residents of mining
communities in his state are eagerly

now under consideration by the Of

on conversion of ignite to synthetic

Montana is fully aware of the
potentialities of the Office of Coal

cluded. "By the same token, OCR
and its related offices must not
lose sight of what Montana has
to offer: enormous reserves, var
ious grades of coal, mine manpow-
err, and research facilities and sci
entific personnel at Montana State

tions within the state"

Ter lifting of the strike-restrain-

Road Board,
Unions, Ink
Contracts

After fiddling around with
the unions involved since last
April the Highway Commission
this week put their "John Hen
ry" on contracts with the State
County and Municipal En-
ployees Union and the Mon
tana Crafts Council.
All the EARLIER hogwash about hav-
ing the same contract for both union
groups turned out to be only device
to pit one group against the other.
In the end the negotiating ability of
union representative has been estab-
lished with the Crafts Council get
ting union security type of con-
tract known as the "agency shop"
and the SCME union getting dues
check-off clause. Workers in either
union get the same pay, which is
governed by the newly+reorganized
table of organization.
In a funny little side play which
administrative boards often get fouled
up in the Commission attempted to
do little lawmaking. AS the Highway
Patrol Board they found they could
not ban mixers or bicycles from the
Interstate SO they tried it as the
Highway Commission, hoping that
some Bureau of Public Roads direc-
tive could be found to isolate the
controlled access roads from use by
persons who do not contribute TO the
gas taxes.

ANTI-SPECULATION MEASURE
Nelson then gave a brief chronol-
ogy of events. AS an anti-speculation
measure and in a fashion entirely
traditional with the Bureau based
on law passed in 1902, the Bureau
of Reclamation applied for with
drawal of any public unentered lands
within the project area. $50 that we
wouldn't have to buy them back later
at fantastic prices" Nelson com.
Since the Bureau did not know
which might be unentered lands, it
furnished the Bureau of Land Man
agement with descriptive boundary
lists of the project area, from within
which they wished to apply for with
drawal from further appropriation
any unentered public land. Further
descriptive lists were furnished by

ands which might b available for re-

$500 Name Ballots
Used by Church

The Greek Orthodox Church
of Northern Virginia is en-
ploying an unusual method Of
naming its new congregation,
one that enables every men,
ber to participate.
Each ballot having a sug-
gested name for the church

ber may buy a ballot for that
amount. But those who do
not wish to buy a ballot alone
may do so in company with
others who have the same
name in mind.
One procedure is for an in
dividual to contribute a sum
for a particular name. When
$500 has been reached by 9th
ers contributing for the name.
the ballot will be marked and
dropped into contention. In
this way every member, nc

By CASPAR NAMES

Religious News Editor OF Tne star
The announcement this week
that historic National PreSby-
terian Church at Connecticut
avenue and Eighteenth street
NV, has been sold and
eventually will be torn down
recalls famous Americans
who attended srevices there.
Best known to the present
generation is former Presi-
dent Dwight D. Eisenhower,
who joined the congregation
shortly after his Inauguration
and attended regularly during
his years in the White House.
Earlier chief executives Of
the Nation who worshiped in
the structure, then Covenant
Presbyterian Church, were
Benjamin Harrison and Gro
yer Cleveland. The former sat
in Pew 4S, directly in front
of Pew Al that Gen. Eisen-
hover occupied. Later Pew 4S
was occupied by the late Sec
retary of State Foster Dulles,
whose grandfather, John W.
Foster, also worshiped there
when Secretary of State under
President Harrison. Covenant
and First Churches merged
in 1880 to become National
Presbyterian Church.
Among the numerous public
figures who have worshiped
in the brown stone structure
were FBI Chief j. Edgar
Hoover, Supreme Court JUS
tice Clark and Senator STEM
mis-, Democrat of Mississippi.
Three years after the
church was erected its tower
collapsed. The Star, comment
ing on the occurrence, OBJ
served, 1T fell, not like a
strong structure Of stone, but
collapsed like a heap Of sand.
The report says the wonder is
not that it fell, but that it
stood at all" Fortunately, the
coming collapse had been
foreseen and no one was hurt.
When National Presbyter.
ian Church is razed and an
office building erected it will
be another step in changing
the physical side Of Wash
ington. Old timers will re
gret the passing Of a struc'
ture that gave charm and g
touch of the past to the area
But the new National Presby'
terian Church at 43OO Massa
chusettS avenue NV, should
compensate somewhat for the
loss.
