crowd of 300 in the Glasgow civic

his pledge of four years ago: Il

any corporation, group. organiza-
ton or individual and I will serve
the best interests of the state i'm
partially and to the limit of my
ability"
Governor Ford enlarged on the
theme of outside control and said
he was opposed to it, whether it
comes from a corporation or from
the office in New York Of a man
like Sidney Hillman."
A. B. Friedlund presided at the
meeting. which brought the largest
attendance of any political rally

Ford campaign manager, also spoke
outlining qualifications of other can
dictates on the Republican ticket.
Encourages Dissension
1T is Short-sighted and not to
the interest of Montana to encour-
age ~dissension among many
groups" the governor continued.
This my opponent is doing. He has
offered nothing constructive and his
campaign is one of criticism, pure
and simple. The things he has
adopted, 1 advocated four years ago
and I think I have the right to say
that much has been accomplished
along these lines"
There is no waste in any of your
state departments and they have
rendered better service than ever
before; there is TO d~iSSension or
backbiting among state officers. For
this. I do not claim all the credit"
he continued.
He also noted that there are no
state employees campaigning at your
expense. 1 have opposed political
machines as inherently corrupt. I
advocated repeal of the Hitler law
whereby the governor controlled
every state appointment. 1t was re-
pealed and I am glad of it,"

therefore were put on the point free list to help move the superabund- ant pork supplies.
 Bacon leads the list of all meat products in over-supply today. Des- pite efforts to move the stocks, the situation shows little If any im- provement. There are 176 million pounds of bacon material in cure or frozen on hand today. On the first of April. there were only ITO million pounds. That doesn't neces- sarily mean a lack of consumer in- terest. But 1t does show that the increase in hog killings is running far ahead of consumer demand.
 Early in the war, cattle and hog producers responded to the Govern ment's call for greater production, But the lack of feed crops has forced these producers to rush their animals to slaughter houses sooner than normal. This causes Q glut at stockyards and processing plants at a time of labor shortage and @ tight situation in freezing and cooling space. Last year at this time, l could 90 out and rent all the freezer space l needed" a packers repre- sentative explains, but this year, I don't even know where to turn" COOLER SPACE STORAGE
 A large Chicago packer adds, The shortage in cooler space is very tight, not only because of extra killings, but because there is an enormous supply of shell eggs now in coolers"
 Another reason for the meat muddle, according to some ex- perts, Is the fact that thousands of patriotic Americans responded to the call for home production. They raised pigs on their small lots on the outskirts of town or on small farms and used this pork for their families. These Meat Victory Gardens withdrew many consumers from the commercial market.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1944-05-08

superabundance of meat animals, from the consumers standpoint, is the danger of shortage in meat next year. WASTE RESULTS
 The packers, accoring to Mir. Childress, and to J. W. Startwelle, president of the Port City Stock Yards. can not choose when and how they vii ltake cattle, hogs and sheep. Up to the limit of their capacity they must buy as offered.
 With the animal population of the ranges growing out of bounds, and feed prices high, raisers are under pressure to bring in young, unfat- tened animals, which results in great waste.
 A 5o0-pound steer contains an ex- cesive proportion of hide, hair and bones, and does well to dress 45 per cent of usable beef. Feed the anil mals for six months, bring him up to 900 pounds, and he will dress at least 56 per cent usable beef. For six months feeding the steer will yield perhaps 28o pounds of extra meat.
 Thus the need to depopulate the range wastes potential food stuff and, If carried far enough, might bring shortage eventually.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1944-05-08

The recent letdown of Lend- Lease and Army and Navy pur- chases of meat supplies made this situation even more acute. Now, ac- cording to experts in the meat in dustry, there is only one avenue of relief. That's the American con- sumer.
 Unless the consumers dig in and eat up this excess meat supply, the situation will become dangerous.
 The American Hotel Association, the Association of Dining Car Offi- cers and the National Restaurant Association have been approached by the American Meat Institute to abandon all meatless days and to serve the point free cuts of meat regularly from now on. The average American family will be asked to carry on the fight against gigantic waste by serving meat regularly in its daily menus, beginning with crisp bacon early in the morning.
 LITTLE CHOICE BEEF
 Scarcely a week before the re- taxation of meat rationing, Wes- ley Hardenbergh, President of the American Meat Institute, Chicago, had wired OPA, Washington, for help. Speaking for 400 packers, Hardenbergh asked that OPA either CD issue a bonus ration stamp for all pork products, or else (2) re- move all points on pork and saus- age.
 Unexpectedly, oPA's reply went even beyond this request-by in- cluding also lamb, mutton, veal, beef flank steaks, hamburger, and variety meats. Leon Bosch, Meat Rationing Division of OPA, Wash ington says present supplies of choice beef are not adequate to meet consumer demand. His state- ment is backed by several large packers. That's why steak and roasts are not on the free list. But the other beef cuts the so-called less desirable cuts-are used in the manufacturing of pork sausage and
