ERICKSON SEEKS REVISION OF farm
PROGRAM TO STABILIZE PRICES

Shelby,-Judge Left Erickson, dem
ocratic candidate for the United
States senate in the July 16 primaries,
told an audience of more than 1000
at Fourth of July Farmers Union
picnic at Galata that he pledged him.
self, if elected, to revision of the farm
program to stabilize farm prices.
ITO stabilize farm prices, l will re-
commend a ten-year floor under farm
prices. This will prevent a drastic
fall in prices caused by period of de-
flation, and allow the farmer to adjust
himself gradually to a Sound money
economy Erickson said.
Judge Erickson also recommended
a ten percent tax-free reserve for the
farmer, to act as a cushion against
years of drought, hail and poor crops.
Il will also ask that the federal in
come tax laws be revised to allow
farmers to figure their income tax on
a five year basis, just as lawyers and
doctors are allowed now" Erickson
added. "The farmer cannot figure his
income on an annual basis. Crops
this year were grown on
land that was summer-fallowed last
year. Cows that were calved this
year will not be sold until perhaps
.hree years from now Thus the farm
or cannot figure income tax ON an
annual basis, but he must plot it on
1t least five-year level"
The senatorial candidate commented |
briefly on the campaign issues. CAS-
most of the people of Montana know,

922, If you ever see my picture on

the farmers and main street voters
that PM is communist paper. When
| it bows his way it is liberal, when it
criticizes him, it is communist. When
you vote for him you are democrat,
when you vote against him you are a
communist 1t is as easy as that with
a quick change artist.
PM fought so effectively for Presi-
dent Roosevelt that the wise boys
thought they could draw its teeth by
drafting it's great editor, Ralph Inger-
sol. into the army at AZ. Ingersoll en-
listed and served his country with
distinction while an equally courage
Gus editor, John P. Lewis, carried on
for PM. Marshall Field put up the
money to start the newspaper One
could describe Mr. Field as a million
aire with that rare thing, a conscience
but Mr.. Wheeler has his work cut out
if he hopes to convince anyone that
Marshall Field is communist.
Senator Wheeler would have the
voters believe that he has spent his
years in the senate working like a
beaver in their behalf. He says that
so long as he is in the senate he is
going to go on fighting for "Ameri-
can policies" The American policies
which won the war, and which saved
thousands perhaps millions of Ameri-
can lives, as we'll as millions of lives
all over the world, were the repeal of |
the neutrality act, lend-lease, con-
scription and ship seizure Nobody |
needs to be reminded how hard Sena-
tor Wheeler fought all these Ameri- |
can policies and that he voted against
every one of them. Without them we
would now be saluting Hitler on the
east coast and Hirohito on the west
coast, and Gauleiter Wheeler in the
northwest territory.
What were YOUR american poll
,ies", Senator? History already shows
hat your policies were designed to
lelp Americas enemies. Whom do you
hink you are fooling?

CHICAGO, June 15.-Dave (Boo)
Ferriss suffered his first pitching
defeat in II starts today as the
Chicago White Sox edged Boston's
Red Sox, 7-6, for the Hubmen's third
straight setback and their longest
losing streak of the season.
The White Sox, blasting Ferriss
from the mound with four runs in
the third inning, benefited from
some able relief work by Bill Die
trich in the ninth to grab their
fifth straight win.
The Red Sox drove Starter Joe
Haynes from the mound during a
l3-hit attack which included Bobby
Doerr's eighth homer and chased
Ralph Hammer to the showers in
the ninth to pick up their sixth
marker.
Dietrich, however, came in with
one out and proceeded to smother
the Bostonians without further
damage to save the triumph for
Haynes.
Ferriss, who yielded six hits be-
fore he quit in the third, was VIC
timized particularly by Outfielder
Whitley Plat, who belted across
three runs to raise his RBI total in
two days running to nine.
Ted Williams paced Boston's in
effective attack with 3-for-4, in
Guiding two singles and a double.

DETROIT, June 15.-Dutch Leon
ards role as Tiger tanner ended
abruptly with one sweeping stroke of
Jimmy Bloodworth' bat here today
Bloodworth, fugitive from the Mats,
pumped home run into the lower
deck of the left field stands with Pat
Mullin aboard in the fourth inning
to provide the big blow as Detroit
dealt Washington its sixth straight
defeat, 81, before 28,438 fans.
Leonard, who had won six success
sive games from the Tigers in
string dating back to the final game
of the 1914 season, with the victim
of Chit pitching by Hal Newhouser,
who registered his 18th victory and
his third consecutive win of the year
over Washington.
Washington portly knuckle -baller
grudingly yielded five hits to the
Tigers, who kept the Mats chained
to fourth place in capturing their
fifth straight game. Leonard walked
none and unleashed a superb sort of
pitching against the Tigers, but the
Mats weren't disturbing Newhouser.
Leonard outpitched the slim
southpaw until the fifth inning. He
retired the first 10 Tigers in order
and the only man to reach first
base in those four frames was
George Kelf, who beat out a bunt
down the third-base line.
Heath Drives in Nat Run.
The second hit off Leonard, COM
ing with one out in the fifth inning
also was burft, this time authored
by Mullin. The third hit was no
bunt, for Bloodworth hoisted his
second home run Of the season
among the customers in the left-field
stands and that, it developed, was
sufficient protection for Newhouser.
Washingtons run-starved athletes,
who have pushed meager seven
runs across the plate in. their last
six games, mustered their only
score off Newhouser in the sixth.
Billy Hitchcock opened with a single
to right and Buddy Lewis propelled
him to second with single off
Shortstop Eddie Lakes glove. Stan
Spence and Mickey Vernon popped
out, but jeff Heath fetched Hitch
cock across and shifted Lewis to
third with a sharp single to right
before Gerry Priddy drilled into a

Conn Flashes WaNop,
Shakes Sparmates
With Hard Right
BY TIE Associated Press

GREENWOOD LAKE, N. j., June
15.-Billy Conn tagged one of his
sparring partners for keeps today
and got his Irish up against another
as the challenger went through five
rounds of boxing that left him just
two practice sessions away from the
real thing.
The man who got tagged was Irish
Jimmy Smith. He ran into a hard
right thai caught him flush on the
jaw midway of the first round. He
appeared so shaken up that Man
ager Johnny Ray called time. "
Conn went another round with
Smith and then went single heat
with Frank Poreda.
Poreda had opened the round by
landing a few light rights, and then
had proceeded to tie Conn up in a
clinch. That appeared to anger the
challenger, who came back swinging
and had Poreda backed into the
ropes under a volley of hard rights
to the head as the frame ended.
Against Mike Belluscio, in the last
two rounds, Conn did good deal
of two-handed body punching.

DETROIT. June 15.-Roger Wolff,
who has hurled consistently brilliant
ball for the Mats with little luck,
will attempt to check Washington s
losing streak here tomorrow when
ne faces Detroit in the final of a
3-game series Freddy Hutchinson,
beaten by the Mats in his only start
against them this season, will pitch
for the Tigers.
Wolff, who lost a 81, five-hit
game to st. Louis in his last start,
will be striving for his fifth victory
against as many losses.
The Mats fielding has slumped
with their hitting. Washington has
committed Is errors in its last seven
games, while 26 of the Mats last 80
hits have been singles.
When the Mats bosses failed to
make trade by last midnight, the
dealing deadline, they served notice
they'll string along with their pres
ent club. down the stretch unless
they unload or obtain performers on
waivers.
Idle Monday, the Mats will meet
the Indians at Cleveland on Tues
day night in the opener of a 3-game
series.
Prior to today's tussle the Tigers
were awarded two flags, one symbol
jzing their 1945 American League
pennant victory. and the other pro-
claiming them world champions.
Baseball Commissioner Happy

the 80 Tigers of 1945 still with the
