Legislature Faces Cuts and Reorganization in Montana
Gov. Sam C. Ford signed a bill reducing Montana's house from 102 to 90 members based on the 1940 census, with Lake County gaining a seat and Yellowstone County increasing to six. Other bills dealing with gambling, divorce residency, and a two year state government study under a seven member advisory panel advanced or failed as the session pressed on. The study aims for efficiency and cost savings, with recommendations for consolidations to be presented to the 28th legislature.
