Heaphy Suggests Culling
o. Dairy Herds Now d.

Because low producing cows
will cut into the winter feed
supply needed for good produc-
ers, now is the time to Gull the
dairy herd, according to Matt
Heaphy, county extension agent.
Heaphy said that dairy men
will find that their greatest
profit will come from herds in
which a high percentage of the
cows are kept milking. He add
ed that the number of dry COWS
in a dairy herd should not av-
erage more than IS per cent
for the year.

The Clam as a Pet

A Boys Club annual pet show Is
featured this year by something
never encountered at such show
before. It is a round clam, en-
tered by seven-year-old lad, and 1t
has caused considerable eyebrow
lifting. However, we stand firmly
behind the kid. A clam makes a
pretty wonderful pet. 1t is untem-
peramental, it's habits are never an
noying, it never climbs onto the de
luxe sofas and nobody has to get up
at $50 to let it out. E
You know right away that clam
will never bring any man his slip
pers or sit up and beg. You realize
at once that it will not chase ball
across the living room. So you don't
bother. All clam asks is to be let
alone.
We are clam breeder and fan
cier Our clam kennels are the home
of such outstanding CLAIMS as Muddy

cess-Charles Island King. We also
own the blue ribbon winner Pull-In-

established precisely that kind of
fact-finding. General Motors walked
out on it.
The question raised by such
permanent fact-finding law is:
Would anyone ever show up
for the hearings? To handle the
problem that way would be like
waving back a windstorm with
a feather.
If congressional leaders try to
push their boys through this hole,
there will of course be trouble. The
labor committees Of both houses are
closely controlled by the unions.
Nothing can escape them which is
opposed by the unions, or nothing
ever has.
On the open senate and house
floors, however, their bill
would be open to amendment by
the attachment Of every possible
solution every congressman has
proposed. The problem Of MIR.
Truman's leaders will then be
to prevent any important action,
and they are likely to wind up
with conflicting bills from the
tive houses.
Certainly anyone looking for solu-
tons from congress must wear long
range glasses, and anyone looking
toward consideration of the funda-
raentals of the problem will have to
look hard. The plain fundamentals
are these:
The midland journal., 1946-03-08


ieve congress could longer duck the
problem and expected various
union-curbing enactments. But Mr..
Truman had told his leaders pri-
vately he would veto anything which
might be called an anti-union law.
Surely nothing opposed by the
unions could get tw0-thirds ma
jOrity necessary to pass over
such a veto. The confused and
confusing predictions, in the last
analysis, therefore, appeared to
add up to just about the same
total - nothing, or little-Or-nOth-
ing.
A nice neat hole in the wall is
quite evidently being dug, through
which all may escape. A commenta-
tor or two started it with toothpicks,
but behind them some congressman
are ready with drills.
FACT-FINDING WITHOUT
POWER OR TEETH
This is proposal to cut the Tru-
man fact-inding bill down to fact
finding alone. It would be stripped
of it's power of subpoena, to which
General Motors objects, and the
cooling-off period of 80 days before
strikes, to which the union objects.
Just pass law letting the President
appoint commissions to find facts.

cape is too many people can see the

NEW YORK, Feb. 20 (ANP)-
Speedy action of the National Ur-

distribution of an anti-Negro fold

long time since any important
business or industry has had the
effrontery to portray Negroes in
this manner. Coming at a time
when intelligent American leader
ship is doing it's best to eliminate
disharmony and misunderstanding
among groups of American citi-
zens, your company's advertise
ment is particularly unintelligent,
and tragic.
Negro veterans of the recent
war, who gained experience in the
army air forces, are now looking
to the air lines systems for plotting
and technical jobs for which their
army learned skills have qualified
them. Your company's caricature
places an additional burden on this
group, and handicaps the efforts
of such organization as the Ma

added.
Airlines officials, answering the
protest, gave assurance that no Of
fense was intended. Plans for dis
tributing the folder have been

There are 252 Negroes who have

had maximum of 40 years to re-
pay the loans made under terms Of

'Unity and Solidarity" was the
theme of the conference.
Solon C. Bell, chairman of the
Joint Council since it's inception in
1887, in his opening remarks at
Mondays session, pointed out
sharply the urgency of this con-
ference and the problems facing
dining car workers and working
people throughout the world.
Mr.. Bell prefaced his remarks
with the observation: "What we do
here in this meeting will possibly
decide the destiny of dining car
workers for the next 20 years."
Delegates from every section Of
the United States attended the ses-
sions of the council, which is repre-
sentative of dining car workers to-
falling some $4,000 members.
Meeting in Los Angeles at the
same time, at the Roosevelt hotel, is
the international executive board
of the Hotel and Restaurant En-
ployes international alliance and
Bartenders international league of
America, AFL, the international
which the council is affiliated.
The executive board joined the
conference delegates at a banquet
at Shepp's Playhouse Monday
night.
The purpose of the national con-
ference of dining car employees is
to strengthen the JOINT Council so
that it can meet the need (1) to
organize the unorganized, (2) to
improve the working conditions of
all it's members, (3) to raise the
wages of all dining car workers
(4) to bring about standardiza-
tion of contractual relations with
the railroad companies.
The ladies auxiliary, noted for
its activities in support of the OPA
and other progressive legislative
matters, is also meeting here, hold
ing it's sessions at union hall. The
ladies are the guest of Locals 582,
456 and 465.
