It's mother, Claudia Lubin,

DEMAND PROBE

OF four WACS

WASHINGTON - Congressman
Vito Marcantonio joined with Con-
gresham Adam Clayton Powell.

It shure is funny why there
is a meat shortage in Montana.
I read in the paper not so long
ago that Montana was over
loaded with cattle & sheep. Jus
to make a long story short all
that wood hafta be done is
exmpt livestock men from pay
ing income taxes. If most lar
ger guys sold their herds they
wood hafta pay more than 75%
back in income taxes. Rather
than have no money and no
cattle its better to have too
many cattle and plenty of mon
ey land meat too if you raise

err so why not use it until it

I herd that John Rice had a

that a weel known rancher was

advertised the sale and tole Of

stuff. Some naybors wanted
most of the bulls and the same

thing was sold before the sale

Allow Materials
For More Housing

Relief from the present
housing shortage in the Hardin
locality has just been made
possible according to a state
ment received from George w.
Coplen, regional representative
of the National Housing agency
in Seattle.
This area has been determin-
ined eligible for residential
conversion priorities. Such act
ion is in accordance with the
recent announcement of the
War Production board and the
National Housing agency that
such priorities would be made
available in areas where MIA
determines that housing short
ages are causing extreme hard
ship.
Apartment houses and other
existing dwelling units may
now be remodeled or converted
to provide smaller housing
units. Applications for permits,
