AUTO AWARD ONE BIG FEATURE FOR
 4TH CELEBRATION
Committee Secures Chrys- ler-AIso Arrdnges for
 Queen Contest

Mayor Waino Hendrickson, chair man of the Fourth of July Con- mittee said the finance committee had been organized with Fred Henning as chairman. AS means of raising the s5,O0o necessary to put over the huge Fourth of July celebration, Hendrickson stated that the board had obtained a Chrysler automobile with approxi- mate delivery date June ]. The car will be awarded and there will also be a queen contest.
 All organizations in the com- munity will be asked to sponsor a queen candidate, votes for whom will be gained by selling tickets on the automobile. The sale of tickets will begin upon the arrival of the car. All groups are urged now to select a queen candidate so they may get underway on the sale of tickets by June l.
 Other activities which are un- derway are arrangements for the finest fireworks display yet to be shown in Juneau. Hendrickson further stated, as far as he knew, no other Alaskan town has ever ordered such an outstanding dis play.
 Other contests to be included are: a speed toat race, yacht race, log saving contest, log rolling and fish boat race.
 For entertainment of young and old alike, there will be carnival concessions. Other organizations are invited to participate in the carnival attractions by sponsoring concessions. MT Hendrickson said he felt this would offer an op- portunity to many organizations in town to raise funds for them selves and to help toward a suc- cessful Fourth of July.
 A determined effort is being made to have the Army Air Corp participate in the July 1 celebra-

Bill Proposing Priority
 Of AIaSkanS in Fisheries
 Most Likely 10 Be Killed

WASHINGTON, May 6.-IR- Opposition by Oscar L. Chapman Undersecretary of the Interior, ap- parently spells defeat for a bill by Delegate Bartlett of Alaska pro- posing to give priority of employ ment in fisheries of the Territory to Alaskans.
 Bartlett issued a statement today disclosing that Chapman had op- posed the bill before the House Merchant Marine and Fisheries Committee.
 Chapman said the Department was anxious to develop stable and permanent population in the Terri tory but he did not believe that regulations limiting opportunities for non-resioents to engage in fish ing in Alaska would be in accord with national policy
 T do not believe it to De sound policy to impose barriers to the free movement of labor from one part of the nation to another, :" Chapman said. anymore than it would be desirable to impose bar riers to the tree movement of com modities and capital among the several states and Territories.
 Enactment of legislation of this type would probably, in the course of time. work to the disadvantage of Alaskans.'
 Chapman's action is expected to cause the committee to kill Bart let's bill

Range Detectives
Still Riding Herd
On Cattle There's

BEAUMONT, TEX. - One of the
few carryovers from the days of the
Old West, cattle thievery still repre-
sents major problem for cattle
men and Texas Rangers, whose Wig
lance never relaxes.
Lean and lanky Texans of sturdy
pioneer stock made their own law
back in 1877 at Graham, Tex, when
they organized the Texas and South
western Cattle Raisers association
to wage war on rustlers who were
running off thousands of cattle each
year.
Between 1888 and 1892, the spe-
cial officers and inspectors of the
association recovered II, 1858 head of
cattle valued at more than $685.
939. Between 1918 and 1888, almost
10000 cattle were recovered, with a
valuation of more than 81 1878, 200.
Recoveries are declining, not be-
cause rustlers are less cunning, but
because the association never has
relaxed its relentless campaign to
help its 5000 members.
In the four years from 1913 to 1947,
there were only 4,488 cattle recov-
cred. They represented 1899, 489
worth of beef on the hoof.
It's hard for rustlers to dispose of
stolen cattle even though there are
more than 100000 brands on record.
Watchful inspectors are stationed at
Houston, Fort Worth, San Antonio,
Lubbock and Texarkana. These men
see every shipment of cattle going
in and out of these cattle centers.
Association men also are stationed
at stockyards in other states.

SUPREME COURT OF SHOW WORLD
Prize Livestock of Continent
To Compete in International

An all-time exposition high was
established for the grand champion
steer, Royal Jupiter, a 1,37O-pound
animal shown by Oklahoma A. and
M. college. The prize animal
brought $1,000 per pound. The 1941
price was $3.50 a pound.
Youths Share Money.
A large share of returns from the
auction went to junior feeders. The
champion steer of the junior classes,
raised by an Iowa farm girl, was
sold for $3.50 per pound. The grand
champion wether lamb brought SIS
pound to it's 16-year-old owner.
The junior champion barrow netted
SLIGO a pound.
As the result of a misunder-
standing, the prize swine car
cases were sold twice last year.
The first auction was upset when
John Rupnick, a lefty Teller"
from Chicago, bought all the
swine, thinking the prices be-
ing quoted were for the en-
tire carcass instead of by the
pound. When they were re-
sold, the six carcasses brought
S411.02 instead of the S2,O22.5O
Rupnick bid in his innocence of
the proceedings.
The l947 show marks the 25th an
niversary of the International Grain
and Hay show which, although a de-
partment of the livestock exposi-
ton, is in itself the worlds largest
annual competitive exhibit of farm
crops. Nearly every agricultural
area of the world has been repre-
scented in recent years.
Many of the top stables in this
country and Canada will exhibit
their top riding and driving horses
and ponies in the horse show. Thir-
teen performances are scheduled
during the week.
Browning chief. [volume] (Browning, Mont.) 1941-1953, 1947-12-05

as the junior livestock feeding con-
test, will be held on the opening day.
The top prize winners in junior
classes are admitted to the open
competition. In past years, junior
entries have been serious contend
ers for highest honors of the show
in competition with those fitted and
shown by professional talent, and on
six occasions in recent years the
grand champion steer of the show
has been exhibited by farm boys
and girls.
Addresses by nationally prominent
speakers, educational tours, discus
sion meetings, banquets, recreation
a! events and entertainment attrac-
tons also are on the calendar for
the All club congress.
Unique Experience.
For the boys and girls who attend
there are a lot of "frsts" - first
trip away from home, first train ride
and hotel stay, first big banquet
and similar novel experiences
throughout the week.
They learn to know customs
and habits of people from other
sections of the country, to know
that as Alters they're doing an
adults work, and doing it well.
They learn that industry and
agriculture have common inter-
ests, that they can advance to-
gether by working together. But
best of all, they learn that farm
ing and homemaking are pur-
suits of which they can be
proud, and that America is look
ing to the farm for many of her
future leaders.
This year All boys and girls as
well as stockmen must keep track
of the age of the steers they show
at the international, as entries will
be classified according to age rather
than weight. The change is designed
to give showmen credit for fast
gains and weight for age" which
are important in figuring profits.
Cattle Predominant.
Nearly half of the total entry of
the 1947 show will consist of cattle.
The three important breeds of cattle
which supply the bulk of the nations
best beef-the Hereford, black Aber-
deen-Angus and the red, white and
! roam Shorthorns-will be represent
ed in the largest exhibition of pure
bred cattle ever held at any Show IN
the continent.
More than a thousand sheep, rep
resentative of the II breeds which
yield most of the country's wool,
lamb and mutton, will be on dis
play. Exhibits also will include sew
eral different breeds of swine and
more than a thousand horses.
A majority of the animals shown
in the cattle, sheep and swine de-
partments are disposed of at auc-
tons held before the show closes.
Total sales on animals exhibited last
year amounted to $l,826,597, with
all classes bringing record-shatter-
ing prices. Carlot sales illustrate
the price trend last season. Fat cat
tie brought SALTS per hundred
weight, compared to $15.62 at the
1941 international; hogs, $27 a hun
dred, against 1941 price of $ll .O4,
and sheep, $29.78, compared to $13.71
in 194l.
Browning chief. [volume] (Browning, Mont.) 1941-1953, 1947-12-05

listed from every state in the Union
and all provinces of Canada.
Preparations are being made to
house about Is, 1000 animals, most of
which have been top prize winners
at state fairs and other livestock
shows held throughout the nation
this fall. They will compete here for
prize money totaling 100000 and,
as generally is conceded more i'm
portant among the livestock frater-
nifty, for the unequalled honors
which accompany victories in the
International.
The distribution of awards last
season indicates the extent to which
the continent sends its best to COM
pete for international awards. Thirty
states and three Canadian prov
inces we're represented in champion
ships and first prize money. Illinos
led all states in the number of
awards, with 48 championships and
140 first awards. Indiana ranked sec
ond, with At championships and 60
firsts. Following in close order were
Ohio, Iowa and Michigan.
Attracts Record Crowd.
A record crowd of 435,OOO city and
farm folk pushed through the turn
stiles to view the five million dollar
display of the finest livestock in
North America.
Inaugurated as proving
ground for superior livestock
types and a many-sided demon
stration of improved methods of
farming, the International Live
Stock exposition during the Al
years of its existence has had
tremendous influence on the
welfare of the rank and file Of
American farmers and has en-
Outraged agricultural progress
in many ways through the years.
To accommodate the increasingly
large entry list, the six acres of ex-
hibit area in the International
amphitheater will be expanded by
approximately 10000 square feet
this year. A four-story addition to
the building has been constructed
during the past summer.
Approximately 1,40O farm youth
from every state, Hawaii, Puerto
Rico, Alaska and Canada will attend
the exposition. They will participate
in contests and demonstrations of
the National All club congress,
which will be held for the 26th time
this year in connection with the in
ternational.
Demonstrate Skill.
Prize winning displays of cloth
ing, home decorating, cooking and
canning will line the walls of the
large All building, constituting
convincing demonstration of the
homemaking skill of the future gen.
Grafton of farm women.
The annual All club parade, held
in conjunction with the Wednesday
night horse show, is considered one
of the most impressive features of
the exposition.
Girls as well as boys are active
in livestock raising. This year sew
eral hundred farm boys and girls
will exhibit baby beeves, lambs and
pigs in a contest limited to the par
ticipation of exhibitors between the
ages of 10 and 20. The event. known
