SHEEP AND CATTLE
INDUSTRY IS BASIC
Agriculture in State In Large
Measure Dependent on
Live Stock
BY Fred S. HuItx

Wyoming's agriculture always has
been and, to a large extent, always
will be dependent upon live stock
production for its greatest income.
We are naturally a live stock state.
Our system of animal production has
necessarily undergone changes since
the days when cattle and sheep first
had their Introduction into Wyoming.
We are proud to ave been able to
meet these changes and to have kept
pace with them. : AS the great free
n land has been curtailed by
homesteading and lease. a new type
Of range live stock production, charac-
terized by more careful methods has
evolved.
These past few years of general ag-
ricultural depression have been q
heavy cross to our live stock indus
try. That the industry still lives and
breathes. a vital force in the welfare
of the state, is evidence of the
strength Of purpose n the endur-
anc OF our stockmen.
Only one other state produces as
many pounds of wool as are grown
- VyoAAh6 Wo piOuuC0
nearly one-tenth of the entire produc-
ton of the United States. The finest
Rambouillet sheep ranches in the en-
tire world are located in Wyoming.
They lave prove the superiority of
their sheep, not only by winnings at
the greatest live stock exhibitions,
but by a demand for breeding stock
from the governments of far-off Man
churia and Russia
There is no satisfactory substi-
tute for wool. No fabric has that
combination of warmth and luxurious
softness that wool affords. Lamb is
regarded by many as the most de-
licious OF meats and its popularity as
o Wand has steadily increased for the
last decade. We may feel assured of
a continued demand for these products
and a consequent prosperity for u
sheepmen. Cool and dry
winters stimulate the growth of wool.
Wyoming has both of these climatic
requirements. The parasite infesta-
ton of pastures ommon to the more
easterly sections Is unknown here.
Our nutritious pastures and native
hays are high in food value and cure
at a time of year when the greatest
nutriment is retained in the plant. In
plain words. we are the greatest sheep
state in the Union because of our
natural advantages of pasture. eli
mate. n altitude. combined with a
determination to produce only the
very best sheep. The visitor to Wyo-
ming Is always impressed by the
bands Of sheep grazing through the
broad valleys or on the mountainous
slopes of the National forests.

White RADIO BILL
NOW GOES TO SENATE
Measure Giving Secretary of Com
merce Regulatory Powers
Passed by House.

By a vote of o1S to 124, the White
radio control bill was passed by the
House yesterday and sent to the SEN
ate. This measure creates a Federal
radio commission of five members to
cooperate with the Secretary Of Com
merce in regulating traffic in the air
to avoid confusion in broadcasting and
other forms of wireless communica-
ton.
The bill provides for issuance Of
station and operators licenses by the
Secretary of Commerce. Opposition
to it centered about the contentious OF
some members that no machinery was
provided that would insure against
radio monopoly and that it gave the
Secretary too much power.
Only one major amendment was
added to the committee draft of the
bill. This change, proposed by Repre-
sentative Davis, Democrat, Tennessee,
struck out a provision to give the
Commerce Department the power to
remit fines imposed for infraction OF
radio regulations.
The five members of the radio COM
mission would be appointed from five
zones, to be established. Operators
refused licenses would have the right
to appeal to the District of Columbia
Court of Appeals. 1t was stipulated
that the President should have power
to close any station during war "or
other emergency"

MANAGER IS URGED
Council Takes Request for
Community Referendum
Under Amusement.

Whether the voters and taxpayers
of Takoma Park, Md, are willing to
have their taxes increased 10 or 20
per cent to pay the salaries of town
manager and a municipal engineer
is a proposition which may be sub
mitted to the voters at the election
May l.
The suggestion was presented to the
Town Council last night at a meeting
in the Takoma Presbyterian Church
by Albert A. Spear and j. G. Nellis.
They cited the rapid growth of the
town and consequent increase of
town business, resulting in excessive
demands upon the time and energy
of the mayor and members of the
Town Council.
The first provision Is that the coun-
Gil authorize an increase In the town
taxes of 10 per cent. with which
revenue to employ a town manager
at $4,000 to work under the direc-
tion of the council and be responsible
to 1t.
The other proposition was to au-
thoriZe the council to increase the
taxes 20 per cent, one-half of which
revenue would pay town manager
and the other half municipal engi-
neer also at SO 900. to work under the
council took the matter under advise
ment.

The council received a number of
requests for street improvements.

sidewalks on Davis avenue from Flow
er to Garland avenue, and from VIII
liam A. Mellon and John w. Fletcher
for concrete sidewalks in the Wild
wood section.
The council, on recommendation of
the civic improvement committee,
adopted an ordinance restricting the
height of hedges, abutments. walls and
fences to AZ inches at corners, to pre-
vent obstructing the view of pedes-
trians and motorists. Permission must

mission was accepted.

LIMIT ON CIVILIANS
TRAINING PAY BALKED
Government Loses in Effort to Cur
tail 1918 Embryo Officers Pay
to $33 a Month.

The Federal Government lost in the
Supreme Court yesterday in a test
case by which it had sought to limit
to $33 month the pay of civilians
who trained for Army officers in the
third officers training camp, in 1918.
The highest court refused to grant
an appeal from a lower court ruling
in Ohio, which held that the student
officers were entitled to the 800 paid
them.
The test case was that of Edward
p. Buckenmeyer, student at the
Ohio State University, who trained
at Camp Sherman, Ohio, after enlist
ing in the Army for the duration of
the war. .
The War Department contended
that he was entitled only to the pay
of a private, first-class, but the Court
of Claims threw out that contention.

shipping concerns that the American

az 'roved an item Of $l0,000,000 in an
appropriation bill yesterday to enable
the Shipping Board to operate vessels
which may have to be taken back
from private operators because Of

The fund is in excess of the regular
appropriation for maintenance Of the

House put that sum at 8.691 900, but
the Senate reduced it to the $13,900,-
900 recommended by the Budget Blu

figure. Senators Fletcher, Florida, and
Ransdell, Louisiana, declared the
