The Chicago star. (Chicago, Ill.) 1946-1948, 1946-12-07
By CARL HIRSCH

Few cities have played a more
important role in the political life
of our country than Chicago.
From the days when it wet
nursed the new Republican Party
Chicago has been the birthplace
of new political movements and
parties, of broad popular upheav-
ais against reaction and sinister
trust-spawned intrigues, of great
independent revolts against en-
trenched machines and back
room schemes that almost sue
ceeede5 in turning the nation in
the direction of fascism.
Events that conferred in Chi
cago have determined the politi-
cal course of the nation and
nodded its foreign policy.

THE DAIRY INDUSTRY

THE DAIRY INDUSTRY is
one of the most important indus.
tries in our national economy.
1t has been proved by leading
nutritionists that milk, cheese
and ice cream supply three
fourths of the total dietary cal
cium and almost one-half of the
riboflavin consumed by the ci-
villains of the United States, as
well as, important contributions
of protein and food energy.
The dairy industry is also one
of the largest businesses in the
country. In 1889, the total value
of dairy products averaged 81
billion dollars, or 500 of the ma
tional income.
Dairymen in the US. produce
over 100 billion pounds of milk
annually. About two-fifths is
used as market milk, another
two-fifths is manufactured into
butter, and the remaining one
fifth is made into cheese, concen-
trated milk, ice cream and dried
products.
BUTTER production is scat
tered throughout the U.S., with
400 of the butter factories To-
Gated in Minnesota, Iowa and
Wisconsin. The Department of
Agriculture reports that the large
companies such as the Beatrice
Creamery Company, Swift and
Company and Armour and Com
pany are more important as dis
tributors of butter than as manu-
facturers. They estimate that the
large meat packers manufacture
about half of the volume of but
ter which they distribute.
The dairy industry has long
ago become modern monopoly
led by National Dairy Products
and the Borden Dairy Com
pany, who operate through
various associations and trade
organizations throughout the
country. Thus they dictate the
price of dairy products. The
price of milk and other dairy
products has reached the high
est peak in history, at the pres
ent time. Every family feels
the far reaching effect of these
high prices.
In Chicago, there has been
some resistance to these high
prices but far from a real organ
lied movement of the people in
the fight generally against the

by such bitter struggles, involv-

Navy 70 Ask Congress
For New System Of
Making Promotions
BY the Associated Press

PEARL HARBOR, Dec. 6. The
Navy high command Is preparing to
scrap its antiquated system OF pro-
motions by seeking congressional
approval of completely new plan
stressing youth and proved ability,
Admiral John RI. Towers, comman-
der In chief of the Pacific Fleet,
disclosed today.
Sweeping changes in the Navy's
old promotion system already have
been approved by Admiral Nimitz
and other top commanders, Admiral
Towers said in an interview. A
bill to revise existing laws will be
placed before the next Congress.
Unless action is taken soon, Navy
leaders fear the old seniority system
will govern promotions when the
Presidents wartime powers are
ended.
Admiral Towers, recently re-
turned from Washington, said Bit
ter experiences In the last war
proved the necessity OF moving
younger men to the top of the Navy
command.
Will Avoid Former Situation.
He did not discuss details of the
new plan. but said 'the Navy does
not intend again to be caught in the
position 1t was five years ago, with
too many aging officers of flag rank.
I'm prewar days, the average Of
ficer was 81 or So years old before
he could attain flag rank. That was
the situation when war broke. We
learned early IN the war that many
officers were too old and were not
qualified for a sea command. The
physical strain was too much in such
jobs as carrier task force command
er or commander of bombardment
division of battleships.
mot only were they too old, but
they did not have experience in
aviation and did not know how to
use their weapons. AS result, they
we're over-cautious-a natural result
of ignorance and age. "
Admiral Towers said there were
exceptions such as Admiral Marc
A. Mitscher famous carrier task
force commander) who performed
brilliantly and who knew their stuff.
Drastic Action Taken.
"But the strain of combat duty
and irregular hours takes 1t out OF

a man faster than he can replace it
I'VE have young admirals now
but they never would have reached
their present rank except by drastic
action which was necessary. There
are men just behind them who
proved in the war that they are
capable of being admirals."
Congress has fixed the number Of
peacetime Navy officers at $4,000
SO there is relatively little opportu-
nifty for an officer to attain flag
rank. However, Admiral Towers
said he is certain the plan would
give hope to younger officers.
Admiral Nimitz recently sent the
proposed bill to his top commanders
for study and suggestions. It was
discussed when the Selection Board
met recently in Washington. Among
the admirals consulted were Towers.
