TURKEY GROWERS URGED
TO WATCH GROWING COSTS

Because indications now point
to a low market for next fall,
turkey producers of Montana
must scale down Their growing
expenses in every way possible
in order to make a profit, says
Miss H. E. Cushman, extension
poultry specialist at Montana
state college.
Storage supplies on hand are
large, she said, and the outlook
is for a larger than usual tur-
key crop throughout the coun-
try this year.
There are a number of steps
growers can take to reduce ex-
penSeS, Miss Cushman said.
First, they must keep a sharp
eye on the health of the flock
and raise every possible poult.
Every effort should be made to
get the turkeys matured and
marketed by "a weeks because
costs increase rapidly after that
time. Other items which must
be watched are costs of feed,
labor and equipment.

Their goal was to ease some OF

so that investment would be
stimulated. Until business and
investment is stimulated, this
group reasoned, there can be
no recovery.
When the plan was presented
at the White House the answer
was mo" Finally, however,
when it appeared certain that
Congress would have its own
way in the matter, regardless
of administration wishes. there
was a face-saving retreat.
Some observers are saying:
Now that Congress has gotten
a new taste of the authority
which vas rubber-stamped awav
a couple of Congresses ago, it
is going to be difficult to head
off anything it sets its mind to

A pebble on the beach is still
just a pebble, even when trans
ferred to the social position" of
a rock garden. There is nc
metamorphosis.
But take a political pebble
from Podunk to Washington
and the metomOrphoSiS Is as
founding. He, or she, becomes a
self styled social lion, or lioness,
overnight and no social height
is too great to discourage the
climber.
So it is that a good many
pebbles who felt flattered to
be invited to a Saturday night
shindig at a neighbor'S home
in Podunk, are causing no less
a parsonage than an AmbaSSa-
dor to lose sleep and poise in
Washington these days. 1t is all
because they can't get an in
vitation to meet the King and
Queen of England.
Two weeks before the sched-
uled arrival of Their MajeStieS,
the guest list of those invited
to the official garden party at
the British Embassy was an
nounced. It ran into many hun
dreds of names. Those appear
ing on the list were the Con-
gressmen, the top-rung officials
Of the administrative branch of
government, and the recognized
social leaders.
But missing from the guest
list were the so-called bright
young men and women who
have filtered into Washington
land into responsible. well-pay-
ing government jobs in the
last few years. And so it was
that this group began raising a
terrific rumpus over their So
| cial hurts. Reasoned this group:
If we are big enough to make
! business men and John Tax
payer bow in respect before US,
aren't we good enough to bow
before the visiting Royalty?
The energy that has been
expended by these socially am
bilious ones in an effort to get
on the guest list. in MANY cases.
exceeded the energy they ex-
pended to get their choicy jobs.
r. is the most interesting-and
bitter-social war waged in the
Capitol since the famous Doll"
Gann-Alice Longworth feud of
manv years ago.
Indeed, the metamorphosis OF
a political pebble is strange
when fortune lifts it from the
unknown and commonplace OF
Podunk to the potent pot of
politics and patronage in Wash
ington.
But the struggle for social
recognition is only for the
sighted brain trusters. The
congressman and the admins
tration to%p-rungerS have a war
of their own on, and the stakes
are considerably higher. That
struggle is over the question OF
