Livestock and Meat Prices

Livestock is marketed when it is ready. The supply
of animals coming to market at any time is con-
trolled by your decisions as producers. These de-
cisions may have been made months previously,
depending your breeding and feeding program.
The weather -blizzards, storms and droughts-also
have bearing when you market your animals.
Meat packers have control over the supply
of livestock.
The meat packer must sell meat and by products
for lat they lUU bring. When people have to econo-
mize, they spend less money for meat. Consumers,
retailers and meat packers reduce their bids. The
prices of both meat and livestock fall accordingly
But when people make more money, they are eager
to buy meat Then buyers all along the line increase
their bids And the prices of both meat and live
stock rise accordingly. For each meat packer and
each retail meat dealer knows that if he does not
pay little higher for the livestock meat he wants.
somebody else willard get the business.
Thus the old law of supply and denand-plus
competition in buying livestock and selling meat
forces price changes in meat to be reflected quickly
all the way back to the livestock the hoof At all
times the market price is balance between the
supply of livestock and the demand for meat.

Diet and the Liberal Stockholm It'd

picned the cause of a Scandinavian

den believes that by Scandinavia
remaining outside of any bloc the
cause of peace is furthered, while
Denmark and Norway lean more
toward an immediate adherence to
a Western bloc, now in the process
of being created This paper finds
that the proposed investigation
will deal only with the pros and
cons of a Scandinavian military
cooperation, while the. discussions
of it's foreign policy consequences
will be postponed until the COM
mittee has reached a tangible re-
suit.
Norway's Candidacy to Security
Council to Be Backed
At one of the Foreign Ministers
meetings of September 8 and 9,
in which also the Foreign Minister
of Iceland, Bjarni Benediktsson,
took part, the agenda of the forth
coming session of the General AS
sembly of the United Nations in
Paris was discussed. 1t was de-
cided, according to special COM
munique, to support the candidacy
of Norway to membership in the
Security Council, after Belgium.
Also on all other important mat
tiers due for discussion by the AS
sembly, it was found that the
points of view OF the four foreign
ministers conceded, and they
agreed to maintain close contact
during the session in Paris.
For m ore than twenty years,
Scandinavian foreign ministers
have regularly met among them
selves prior to an important in

Viking Ship Found
In Norway City

OSLO.-Exciting discoveries I'M
earthed during building excava-
tons in the heart of the west Nor
wegian city of Bergen have raised
hopes of another Viking ship find.
According to the Bergen report,
workmen have already turned up
a rib and part CT the keel of an
ancient vessel.
Specialists called to the site
have not yet been able to deter
mine the age of the remains,
though it is noted that the keel
piece closely resembles that of the
Viking ship earlier unearthed at
Gokstad. It is suggested that these
remains may date from the middle
ages. If SO, it will be the first
discovery of it's kind

place on the Jewish side of the
embattled city and even blue-pen-
ciled the fact that the locale was
censored by the Israeli Army.
Dispatches covering these points
were transmitted by channels I'M
available to Jewish censors.
DR.. Bunche, who succeeds Count
Bernadctte, has been regarded as
one of UN's most competent ad-
ministrators. He is the author OF
several books, was a Phi Beta
Kappa student, and a star athlete.
He has held a number of posts in
international activities. He is the
grandson of an American Negro
slave.
Both the need and the prospects
for drastic United Nations action
in the Palestine case have been
intensified by the premeditated as
sassination of the UN mediator,
Count Folke Bernadotte.
This grave incident is expected
to multiply the support within UN
for Secretary General Trygve Lies

guard force for police duty in trou

Whatever hope Israel may have
had of early admission to UN is

Arabs prior to the departure of
the British. Count Bernadotte and
the other victim of the shooting,
Col. Andre Pierre Serrot, were
travelling in convoy of several
UN cars.
Col. Frank Begley, UN observer
in the car with Count Bernadotte,
gave this account:
1--WE were stopped by a jeep full
of irregulars in Jerusalem at an
abandoned roadblock. There was
a lot of milling around, then two
men dressed in the military uni
forms came up to the car.
"a man with tommygun
walked past my window and
snarled. 1 saw trouble coming and
started to jump out. Then sec

He never said word. He just

Count Bernadotte Murdered In jerusalem

Amman, Trans-Jordan, Sept. II
Count Folke Bernadotte and a
French aide were shot to death in
the Jewish-held part of Jerusalem.
The United Nations mediator
and French Col. Andre Serot were
killed by men in Jewish army
uniforms" said telephon mes
sage to the Associated Press here.
Bernadotte had arrived in Jeru-
salem by air from Damascus,
Syria, at II a. m. He flew in de-
spite anonymous threats upon his
life, declaring that he refused to
be frightened.
While Bernadotte was flying
from Damascus to Jerusalem, he
received a radio message warning
him not to land-that all aircraft
would be fired on. An hour later,
Bernadotte landed. AS he climbed
into his car, a sniper's bullet
thudded into the rear wheel.
Il don't mind being shot at by
regulars the count commented
as he examined the hole, but not
by irregulars."
Israeli government forces have
been ordered to round up all Stern
Gang members, with instructions
to shoot if necessary, following
the assassination of Count Folke
Bernadotte, unofficial Tel Aviv re-
ports said.
Large-scale arrests repeatedly
have been made in Jerusalem,
where curfew had been imposed
throughout the Jewish area.
DR.. Ralphe Bunche, acting UN
mediator for Palestine, sent tele-
gram to Israeli Foreign Minister
Moshe Shertok declaring that the
UN Palestine mediator's assassi-
nation constitutes a breach of
truce of the utmost gravity for
which the provisional government
of Israel must assume full respon-
sibility."
DR.. Bunche asserted that Mr..
Shertok's "prejudicial and un-
founded statements concerning
truce supervisor" made at a press
conference Sept. 16 ARE not the
kind of statements which would
be calculated to discourage rep
rehensible acts of this kind"
Cairo dispatches reported that
the Zionist radio station, Voice of
Israel, said the Israeli Government
is adopting most vigorous and en-
ergetic measures" to bring the as
sassins of Count Bernadotte to
justice.

STOCkHOlM, Sept. ~ (by arr
mail)-The Foreign Ministers of
Sweden, Osten linden, of Den
mark, Gustav Rasmussen, and of
Norway, Harvard Lange, after a
series of meetings here Sept. 8-9
issued a communique stating that
they had decided that joint COM
mittee be appointed to study the
matter of military cooperation
among the three countries. The
initiative was taken by Sweden
last May, and preliminary discus
sions have been held in the mean
time. According to the, communi-
que, the approach to the problems
of military security differs to q
certain extent in the three coun-
tries owing, among other things,
to their different geographic po-
sition. However, the Ministers did
find sufficient basis for joint in
vestigation of the possibilities for
a Scandinavian military alliance.

Mrs. Huntley Succumbs Following Operation

Mrs. C. O. Huntley of Palmer, who underwent surgical treat ment in a hospital at Ste. Sault Marie, Mich, early last week, died Saturday, according to word reaching Palmer. Her death was sudden. for she apparently was recovering satisfactorily from the operation.
 Mrs. Huntley will be inferred at Rudyard, Mich. Her daughter, Mrs. William Rempel, left Mon- day by plane to attend the serv- ices for her mother.
 Mrs. Huntley is survived by her husband and by a son Ralph, of Fort Richardson. He was on leave on fishing trip at Nabes- ma when news of his mothers death came, and could be con- tacted only through message dropped from a plane. Pilot Les Green of Palmer made the flight to deliver the message.
 Mrs. Huntley Is mourned by a host of Valley friends, for she had been a longtime resident here.

In turn the Engineers, score less until the last half of the seventh, made two walks, an CT TOT and a pair of hits count for four runs. Those hits were the only ones given up by Rackley, Medic pitcher. He struck out IA batters in seven innings of softball.
 In the Shamrock encounter with the Medics, pitcher Warni- ca won his own game, when he scored on Irwin's single in the third inning. Warnica tripled in the fourth, for the longest hit of the game, but failed to score The Shamrocks got four hits in that game, while Warnica al- lowed the Medics just tyyo-one each in the first two innings.

FOURTH SOFTBALL GAMES ARE BEST OF SEASON

Although Palmer s program Ol sports events for the Fourth of July was somewhat modified, because of the absence of con- testants, the two softball games that were played on the local diamond were the best pair of games seen here this year. In the days first game, the Medics of 183rd Station Hospital defeat ed the Engineers of 175th Signal Service by 7 to 4 count. The Shamrocks then measured the Medics for 10 win in the late afternoon game.
 Two Army teams failed to materialize, so h scheduled third game of the day had to be abandoned. The manager of the Detachment Alaska Command nine phoned Art Stacey, Sham rock manager, on Saturday to inform him that many of the men on the teams roster had been assigned to special duty over the holiday, and the team could not appear.
 No word came from the 18th Command Squadron team, but no softball players were in evi- dence at game-time. The Sham rocks took the field for brief Warm-up after the opening game, and then softball recessed until late afternoon.
 Children of the Valley appar- ently spent the Fourth w a y from Palmer, for only the judges were present when race time came last Sunday afternoon. The purchased prizes for the sched- uled 13 races reverted to Mir. Stacey, who is somewhat puzzled as to what he can do with junior winnings.
 However the days softball of ferings more than made up for any audience disappointment at the curtailment of plans. The opening game between the two GI squads proved good tight ball until the final seventh inning. Woodward, Engineer pitcher, al lowed only three hits in the first six innings, but was driven from the mound with a pair of hom- CTS by Richardson and Blades in the first half of the seventh.
