may not be able to analyze but
which you surely will appreciate.

Editors Note: This is the second
in a series of ten articles on Home
Nursing prepared by the Public In
formation Service of the American
Red Cross. For complete details
about the standard course, inquire
of your local Red Cross chapter.
DON'T keep medicines on the same
shelves with toilet articles such as
toothpaste, hair tonic, mouth wash
and nail polish. Doing so can re-
suit in tragic mistakes.
DON'T save old prescriptions. Many
drugs deteriorate with age, become
actually harmful or too weak to be
effective.
DON'T choose your remedies by
guess. You can't afford to gamble
with health.
DO keep all medicines in a special
place and high above the reach of
children.
DO keep all points apart from other
medicines and mark them well.
DO keep labels clean so they can be
read distinctly.
DO consult your doctor to learn what
emergency remedies he prefers
DO keep your emergency medical
shelf or cabinet clean, in good order
and properly supplied. The list
would include:
An antiseptic for cuts and scratches
An application for burns
A. stimulant for fainting or shock
A. laXative-for occasional use only
A tube of white vaseline
A roll of adhesive tape
A small box of absorbent cotton
A few packages of finger dressings
A few sterile gauze squares
A few gauze bandages of different
widths Cor clean white cotton

RESOLUTIONS

Whereas, We, the members of Four
Mile Local have thoroughly discussed
the road debenture plan that will be
voted on by the tax payers of this
state on June 8th.
And Whereas, This plan will in
crease taxes on gasoline and possibly
distillate, which the dirt road farmer
has to pay. But nothing is ever done
about his road, and it is known
fact that the dirt farmer has had no
say whatever when this plan was
made up to have the taxpayers to vote
for same;
Therefore, We urge all voters to
have thorough understanding of this
plan before they cast their vote.
Adopted this 18th day of May 1913
at the regular meeting of the Four
Mile Farmers Union Local.

amount to IA percent in Manitoba, 20
percent in Saskatchewan, and 25 per-

to the coarse grains and flaXseed has
been encouraged by the continuation
of the wheat acreage production pro-

Resolution May


the broadcasting industry is trying to
build a wall of strict taboos around
| its little domain and thereby avoid
having to pass on each case of ac-
| ceptability as it comes up? Is radio
| to become an exclusive privilege of
| the merchant? Is an organization,
movement or cause, regardless of how
sound or deserving, to be barred from
the ears of the American people just
because the broadcaster, so unlike the
newspaper publisher, prefers to slap
down blanket interdict rather than
exercise his powers of discrimination?
1.-THE amendment puts the thumb
on organizations that have become
the basic fabric of the economic and
social life of the American commun-
ity. To mention but one: organized
labor. Perhaps it has never occurred
to any one of them to use radio for
the solicitation of membership, but
when knowledge of the amendment
reaches them at some time the recoil
may have the sting of a whiplash.
Man often courts trouble by trying to
anticipate trouble. With the NAB the
trouble may turn out to be self-stimu-
lated.
Inspiration for the amendment has
a dual background NBC and CHS
ran into troubled waters last year
when they turned down a transcript
ton campaign, involving solicitation
of membership offered by the Coop
erative League of America. The mat
ter was later compromised through
change in program formal. Recently
some promoters conceived an insti-
tute of public opinion idea, in which
listeners would be polled for their
reactions to public questions provid-
ing they held SO membership in
that institute /. NAB might
strengthen its case, whenever dealing
with those that intrinsically don't be-
long on the air, not by amending the
amendment but by resembling it alto
gether."

additional weapon against labor. The
Connally bill was bad enough, but if
the only safeguard is to be stripped
from it, unfortunate results will I'M
doubleday follow.
This column has commented on
pay-as-you-go tax proposals. These
measures are smoke-screen proposals
ostensibly designed to help small tax
payers but in reality designed to re-
lieve large taxpayers from their large
taxes. The Ruml plan, outlined by
the treasurer of r. H. Macy and Co.,
a huge New York corporation, would
allow complete forgiveness of 1912
taxes, thus saving corporation taxpay-
ers huge sums The Forand plan,
passed by the senate, would abate
entirely the 1912 liability for ninety
per cent of income tax payers. 1t is
inconceivable that in times like these,
we would forgive taxpayers of paying
some seven million dollars of taxes.
These bills are vicious, designed to
soak the poor, and must be opposed.
The smashing victory of the Allied
armies over the Fascist hordes in
Africa is proof that continuation
of the European offensive must be
had The arrival of Prime Minister
Churchill only lends credence to the
view that steps will be taken now to
prepare for a land and air invasion
of the continent of Europe. In all
probability, plans will be discussed
concerning Japanese aggression, but
even though General Wavell is in
Washington, it is believed that the
Allies will tackle Europe first. 1t is
interesting to note that the isolation
list press, which has long been urging
an offensive against Japan instead of
Hitler has been forced to quiet down,
and those senators and congressman
who have been arguing that Hitler is
less of an evil than Japan have also
returned to their holes for awhile.

MONTANA 1913
GRAIN STORAGE
SURVEY MADE

Montana's grain storage facilities
had total capacity of 2S,091 900 bush
els, both bulk and sacked, on April L.
1913, according to a report of the U.
S. Department of Agriculture released
through the Bureau of Agricultural
Economics. This compares to 26,S75,-
600 bushels capacity for grain storage
in the state on February 16, 1912
when a similar survey was made. 521
establishments, including elevators,
flour mills, warehouses, bean houses
and breweries, made up the April l,
1943 capacity total, two less than the
February 16, 1912 total. The 4.5%
increase in capacity consists of an
nexes or additional bins built in con-
junction with existing houses since
the time of the previous survey. OF
the April 1, 1913 capacity total H.
3S3,OO bushels were bulk capacity
and 70S,000 bushels were sacked ca
pacity.
Wheat stocks on April /, 1913 in
these establishments amounted. to 49,
$4,000 bushels compared to $780, 900
bushels on February Is, 1912. While
these date are not exactly, compare
BILE, wheat disappearance between
February Is and April l of 1912 can
be judged by the following wheat
stocks for interior mills and elevators
alone, 12,330,000 bushels on February
16, 1912; 11,511 900 bushels on April
l, 1912; and 10,3S1, 900 bushels on
April 1, 1943 Stocks of other grains
for April 1, 1943 and for February &c.
1912 with the 1913 stocks listed first
are as follows: Corn, shelled, 10000
bushels and $4,000 bushels; oats, 337,-
900 bushels and 264,000 bushels; bar
ley, 100000 bushels and 141,000 bush
els; rye, 5000 bushels and $1,000
bushels; flaxseed, $4,000 and $1,000
bushels.
These totals do not include grains
stored in Commodity Credit Corpora
