Trades & Labor Council

R. L. Reese, international representa-
tive of the Amalgamated Butcher Work
men of North America, with headquar-
ters at salt Lake City, Utah, was a guest
of the Trades and Labor Council last
Tuesday. He complimented the Council
on its active interest in not only union
affairs but in other matters of interest
to the people of Montana. Mr.. Reese is
assisting Local 1888 of the Butchers
Union in negotiating a new agreement.

expects to be in Butte about two weeks.
Secretary Vawter made splendid re-
port of the meeting held at Helena Sun
day January Z, 1945, concerning the
establishment of the Missouri Valley
Authority. Mr.. Vawter explained that
the establishment of the Missouri Valley
Authority in Montana and other western
states would increase population, assure
additional employment, create new in
dustries and in general be a very great
help. Mr.. VaWter explained that the
Tennessee Valley Authority had done
wonders for the southern part of the
country and had made it possible for
Muscle Shoals to be a profitable venture.
It might be remembered that the govern
ment had spent many millions in de-
veloping the Muscle Shoals projects but
until the Tennessee Valley Authority had
been established it had become not only
very dormant but almost insolvent. 1t
was also stated that there are about nine
other valley authorities which Congress
must act upon at this session. These
projects are one Of the finest things that
the government had undertaken.
A communication was received from
James p. Kennedy expressing his appre-

Professor Powers says, some
$50, 900 acres of Oregon soils can
confidently be expected to yield
an extra ton of Alfalfa per
acre, when adequately treated
with Sulphur. The same facts
hold true in Idaho, Washington,
Wyoming, Montana, in fact, in
all our Western States.
We read in MINERALS IN
PASTURES, page 26, by Orr
and Scherbatoff, Rowett Re-
search institute, that Sulphur
is of extreme Importance in an
imal nutrition, and as we
know, sulphur content of our
soils is low, therefore it must be
applied artifically to our soils.

ion in stable manure, valuable
nitrogen is saved and returned
to the soil. In the growth of
leguminous plants, additional
nitrogen is gathered from the
air and stored in the soil for
future use. BY changing Sodium
Carbonate to Calcium Carbon
ate, which evaporates, and So
dunn Sulphate which teaches
out, you thus correct excessive
alkilinity.
BY loosening up tight soils
you thereby allow greater dis
tribution of roots and greater
penetration of irrigation water,
by replacing the Calcium and
Sulphur lost by teaching and
cropping.
One of the best testimonials
for Gypsum is the fact that the
Government is paying the
farmer approximately 8O% of
his cost in the several Western
States; Washington, on,
Utah, Montana and Wyoming.
Chemists have studied the soil
and know that in some local
tiles sulphur and calcium are
badly needed.

Imports as we'll as exports were
loosened up. All quotas which linn
tied shipments to this country were
removed last night as a result of
the leased shipping situation"
Mainly affected by this Govern
ment action are South American
and East African countries. For
merly the amount which could be
brought in American ships from
those areas was limited by the num-
Der OF United States freighters going
to those countries.
Since few ships visited them for
war supply purposes, the volume OF
imports has been limited.
Freer access to world trade for
American industry was made pos
sible by the export relaxations an
nounced by FEA last night. OF
more than $500 items formerly re-
stricted, fewer than / 900 remain on
the control list.
The items released include wash
ing machines, vacuum cleaners, most
steel mill products, trackless trac-
tors, machine tools, penicillin, most
types Of paper, locomotives and rail-
road cars, radio and electronic
equipment and rayon and wooden
fabrics, with the exception of wor-
steds.
