Dear Sir:
O iX t.
Wl'
I called on the telephone yesterday hoDing to dis-
you the request by the State of Montana for One
Million Dollars (!|1,OQO,000,00) for relie
the recent enactment of Congress.
Dunooses under
We ha^re a citizens emergency relief coeimittee in
Oa.scade Oounty, Montana, which is now taking care of over
one thoussmd feKiilies. We are conducting almost daily ne¬
gotiations with the Oounty Ooramissioners and City Council
with a vie?/ to h8;ving suitable tej: levies made a -oart of
the budget to take care of our oroblems here for the coming
year. We are met by the argument that the State of Montana
may make available to this coramunit;/ a, sum of money received
from the Federal Government -nursuant to your request, and
tn
it, therefore, such taxing measures may not be necessary,
I would very much ara'oreciate your ex-oressions as
to just what method frill ha.ve to be employed by the St.ate
of Montana to get this money, and what kind of obligations
will be taken by the State of Montana from the various com¬
munities in which the money is exoended in order to get it.
We are very .anxious that the budgets of the city and county
should not be coiiroleted vdthout fully taking into consider¬
ation the necessary requirements for relief in this cora.munity,
and for that reason would ao-oreciate an early a.n8wer.
Respectfullj yours,
