Rep. Mike Mansfield expressed a desire to see Montana's population grow to 1,500,000. And he does not believe that such a population figure is beyond the realistic possibilities of state development. The western district congressman has been traveling over the state, and he told the educators he is convinced the state is on the threshold of real development.

But he stressed the view that if the state is to go ahead, it won't be the work of one man but the co-operation of many. He called upon the state's citizens to forget their differences and work together so this will be a Treasure state in fact as well as in name. There are a lot of Montanans, certainly, who will wholeheartedly agree with the views expressed by Mr. Mansfield, although there might be quite a divergence of views as to the possible rate of population growth. It is quite evident, as Mansfield points out, that industrial growth will be greatly influenced by power and water development.

In seeking the Democratic nomi only do we stand as a sponsoring nation to the independence of the islands but they occupy an important strategic position in the whole plan of Pacific defenses against Communist aggression. There is general agreement, at least in official circles of this country, that we should give assistance to the Philippines in meeting the grave economic situation with which the islands are faced, but in the field of political relations there is greater disagreement. Some months ago a large mission headed at the Highland cemetery were listed by Aaron N. Baker, secretary for the Hill county public cemetery district. Beautification of lots is progressing rapidly.

Several caretakers worked during the summer planting grass and flowers throughout the area. The county has taken charge of the work, endeavoring to landscape the cemetery. Financial standing of the Highland park is excellent Baker said. There will be no mill levy this year for its support.

That mission has now made its report to President Truman and a copy of it has been forwarded to the ambassador at Manila, presumably for transmission to President Quirino. While the details of the report have not been made public, it is known to be in some respects highly critical of the present regime. We can hardly expect any government to be above criticism in all respects, but when we are rendering extensive assistance to any government it seems no more than common sense and practical business that we should demand such conditions of governmental operation as will give at least reasonable assurance that the assistance will contribute to the desired objectives.

Sheriff Moves Fence From Section Line DICKINSON, Oct. 29 (flV-Many political officeholders are known to be "repairing their fences" this fall but Stark County Sheriff Joe W.

Those Election Issues There now remains only a week until voters render 'their decision in an important national election.

In the congressional contests this year world affairs have figured more prominently in the campaign debates than in most previous American elections. Today world affairs are perhaps touching the lives of all of us more closely than ever before, but we cannot ignore the real domestic issues that are at stake in this year's elections. Our military strength will be of little avail if we do not preserve a strong ana stable economy in our own country. Neither major political party has any monopoly on the candidate qualifications that are needed for strong and efficient government, but there remains at least a cross-section difference in the general attitudes of the two major parties. The Democratic angle of that difference is ably set forth in the following editorial comment published in a recent issue of the Charleston (W.

Va.) Gazette: For the past 17 years we have had national administrations which have believed that the power and authority of the people, operating through their government, can and should be used to "promote the common welfare." Under Presidents Roosevelt and Truman the powers of government have been used in the interest of farmers, workers, businessmen and consumers. Our natural resources have been developed and conserved through programs of reclamation, reforestation, soil conservation and the public development of hydroelectric power. Our human resources have been protected by increased governmental activity in the fields of education, health and housing by the adoption of the social security system. Farmers have been assured of reasonable prices, and workers have won the right of collective bargaining. All of these measures have helped us to achieve the greatest and most widely distributed prosperity and the most stable democratically ruled economy that the world has ever known.

Some have watched this progress with misgivings and alarm. We have been warned of the danger of bankruptcy and against trends to socialism, communism, statism and bureaucratic domination. Yet our schools, our churches, our individual freedoms have never been more secure than they are now. One of the things that is at stake in this election is whether we shall continue to go forward along this well -charted road of progress or whether we shall become afraid and turn back. Other Editors Say Know Your Candidates (Montana Petroleum Industries Newt) Wicked Emperor Caligula once made his favorite horse a consul of Rome.

Some years back a cow was inadvertently elected to the city council of a western metropolis. These are but two outstanding examples of high public office being conferred upon candidates who were obviously unfit for their responsibilities. With election time approaching again, much emphasis is being placed upon the necessity of every citizen casting his or her ballot. But a ballot cast in blind ignorance of the merits of the candidates is a useless vote and perhaps even a dangerous vote. It is important to vote on election day.

It is equally important to vote wisely. How often many of the names on the ballot have no more meaning to the average voter than the list on the pages of a telephone directory. How seldom does the average voter know even a few fundamental facts about the principles of the candidates for whom he casts his ballot. Votes cast in this ignorance reduce an election to the class of a lottery. What is the answer for the conscientious citizen who knows that his personal well-being and the success of his business heavily depends upon the decisions made by his elected officials? The answer is: Know your candidates before you vote.

Be sure to vote and be sure to vote wisely. me county on somebody elses fences.

"She" is the mile-long Tacoma Narrows suspension bridge. Her sturdy girders are estimated to be 58 times as collapse-proof as those of her predecessor, which crashed in 1940 after only four months of service.

Commuters had dubbed the 1940 bridge "Galloping Gertie" soon after it was opened because of the way it kited and swayed in high winds, notes the National Geographic society. Tacoma, "lumber capital of America lies on the southeastern shore of Puget sound. Its new bridge leads west across the five-mile-long narrows to Kitsap county, a work-and-play peninsula formed between Puget sound proper and the fjordlike natural arm called the Hood canal.
