Aronson argues the attorney general seeks to marginalize the governor, asserting the governor must ensure state laws are faithfully executed and that Montana’s interests are properly presented in ongoing litigation over an indefinite term oil and gas lease law.

Military Defense Budget Presented to President Eisenhower
The defense budget, the largest federal expense, was reviewed at the White House Saturday with three hours of discussions between President Eisenhower and defense officials. No figures were released and further meetings were possible. Secretary Wilson indicated progress toward stronger defense for the next fiscal year starting July 1, with potential civilian personnel cuts but an unfettered Air Force buildup. Draft calls may fall to 18,000, but 18,000 is likely a floor for the near future. The plan aims for a balanced view reflecting the chiefs of staff on the global security picture.
