 homie Prosperity

 Deputy Prime Minister Herbert Morrison, immediately criticized Churohilrs speech as "e-eadfully reactionary.'
 Making his fourth attempt to unseat the Labor government by parliamentary motion, Churchill accused the governments leaders of authoritarianism" in their plans to curb the powers of the ancient House of Lords.
 Churchills raZor-edged wit was very much in evidence in the de- bate on Labor government policies in the House of Commons. Fuel Minister Hugh Gaitskell suggest ed in Commons that the people of Britain try to save coal by talk ing fewer baths. Whereupor Churchill observed:
 When a Minister of the Grown speaks like this on behalf of the government, the Prime Minister and his friends have no need tc wonGer why they are getting in creasingly into bad odor"

Montana Pig Crop
Will Be Smaller.
Bureau Predicts

Hog production in Montana
will be smaller this year than
in 1916, the Bureau of Agri-
cultural Economics predicts.
Reduced farrowings during
the spring period have contin-
ued the downward trend in
pork output since the war
peak in 1913. More pigs are ex-
pected during the latter part
of 1947, however, which indi-
Gates that the hog production
cycle for the state is now lev
cling off or turning upward.
There were $4,000 spring
sows dec. l to June y far
rowed this year in comparison
to $4,000 a year ago and
1936-45 average of $4,000. An
average Of ga pigs saved per
litter this spring is slightly
less than usual. Total number
of pigs from spring farroWings
was 100000 which is $4,000 less
than for the same period in
1916.
Intentions for fall farrOWingS
June l to Dec. y indicate
there will be 10000 sows far
rowed this fall. During the
fall of 1916 borrowings amount
ed to 1900 and the ten-year
average is $1,000. If these fall
intentions are fulfilled and lit
tiers are of average size, 1885,
900 pigs will be saved this
year. This will be a five per
cent reduction from the 301,-
900 saved last year.
