Thanksgiving Bird
Crop Low This Yedr;
Feed Prices Lower

Montanais turkev crop is
down this year, at least is pei
cent below the 1947 figure, &C
cording to p. j. Greer, Statis-
tician in charge of the Helena
office of the Bureau of Agri-
cultural Statistics.
There were approximately
101, 900 Thanksgiving birds rails
ed in the state this year, as
compared with 10000 in 1947.
The 1916 crop totaled 10000,
which was still far. below the
251, 900 average of the 1935-1944
period. The nationwide picture
also shows a decrease, with a
total of SOTO, 900 turkeys esti-
mated for this year as against
IS, 105, 900 in 1947.
Why is Montana's crop down
again this year Well, the BAE
doesn't know for sure, but sus-
poets that the high prices of
poultry feeds earlier this year
may have been partly to blame
Feed prices have declined
sharply in the last few weeks,
which may result in more pee-
pie turning again to turkey
raising. ?
A large part of the decrease
is laid to the fact that manv
Farmer Browns have moved to
town during the last few ban
ner years, and now conduct
their operations from "the city,.
Farm incomes are up, and the
comfort of the town and the
advantages offered there, es-
peciaIly for sending children to
school, have caused a lot of
farmers to move off the farm.
The move away from the
farm has resulted in the disap-
pearance Of a lot of the small
farm-raiSed turkey flocks that
helped swell the state total
turkey crop in past years. Then,
too, prices of agricultural pro-
ducts with turkeyS-alwayS a
persnickity bird to nurture to
the adult stage.
How much will MI. AVERAGE
Citizen pay for his Thanksgiv-
ing turkey? The BAE won't
even hazard a guess, but they
point out that growers received
81 cents a pound live weight
last October, 80 cents in No
vember, and A cents in De-
cember. This September the
price per pound live weight was
81 cents.

REBUILT:
By Stassen?

In the clear, bitter post-election
light the Republican party turned
upon itself in a fury of self
examination and didn't like what
1t saw.
MOST OF the top-level influential
party members wanted t. see some
changes made, and most of them
seemed to think that Harold E.
Stassen was the man to make them.
AS a result. the former governor
of Minnesota, % president of the
University of Pennsylvania, may be
assigned the job of rebuilding the
COP for the 1852 presidential cam
paign.
STILL licking their wounds COP
leaders were urging the youthful
Stassen to lead a movement to
shape the party along more liberal
lines. Those party liberals were
planning to meet with Stassen for
a brass tacks" discussion of a
party reconstruction.
Stassen was refusing to comment
on the reports that he might step
as general contractor for the re-
construction job. but it was a
known fact that he was being
sp amped with requests. many of
them from Republican bigwigs, to
undertake the task.
II THINK the situation calls for
some reflection" was the only com
ment the man who had been de-
feated by Governor Dewey for the
COP presidential nomination would
make.
One of Stassen's promises when
ne dropped out of the presidential
nomination fight at Philadelphia
last June was to work toward

CHINA WAR:
Panic

In Marking, Peiping. Shanghai
and other terrorized cities along
the China coast the words on the
lips of all foreigners was when
will the Communists Gomez"
And the Chinese themselves, torn
with INDIGESTION, doubts and mob
violence. were wondering the same
thing.
FOOD RIOTS and strikes fiared
in Hankow, Shanghai and Marking.
Undisciplined throngs roamed the
streets. People were trampled to
death or injured. Police fired on
the rioters. The evacuation OF
Americans from China was being
carried out hastily but efficiently.
In north central China the posi-
ton of the Nationalist forces was
growing worse hourly. Suchow and
Pengup were reported virtually
isolated by c O m m unists. The
Yangtze river was feared open to
a Red crossing that would expose
Marking.
THE WHOLE economic structure
of the Chang Kai-shek government
appeared to be crumbling and slid
ing into a Red ruin in the wild
melee along coastal China. Value
o the gold yuan plummeted down.
ward.
The question was not only. when
are the Communists coming?" but
'how long will the central Chinese
government last?"
This appeared to be the great,
alI-consuming crisis in Chang Kali
shek's decade-long struggle to
maintain a spark. Of life in the
Chinese republic. But the cold,
smothering wind of communism
was blowing strong.
RED TROOPS had taken control
of Manchukuo, former National
stronghold in the North, and that
victory appeared to be the key
which the Communists could use to
sweep down into the vital areas OF
China itself.
For Chang and his woefully weak
Nationalist government the past II
years had been nothing but an
agonizing battle against imperial
ism-from the Japanese fascistic
band beginning in 1887 to the
Communist type which presents
IL current peril.

NEW PLAN FOR
BLUE CROSS
New Enrolment Regulations
Shorten Waiting
Period
ELIGIBLE IN 80 DAYS

The Delaware Blue Cross Plan
recently announced new group en-
rollment regulations. In the case
of employe groups, reopening of
membership will henceforth be on
an annual or semi-annual basis.
This regulation replaces q rule
that permitted old employees to ap-
ply at any time, followed by a
four-month waiting period before
membership became effective. New
employees will be eligible to apply
for membership and for changes in
existing memberships within 30
days of employment, instead of so
days. In the case of all groups,
subscribers who have two-per-
son contract excluding maternity
benefits, may increase their cover
age to include newborn child if
application for the additional COW
erage is made within 80 days of
birth. Community groups will con-
tinue to be handled from Blue
Cross headquarters at 902 Orange
Street, with the policy of annual
reopening remaining.

Editorial
THE CRICKET R
MENT IS OVER
THE CRICKET tournament

THE CRICKET tournament
is ended, and the visitors from
New York are about to return.
From the very beginning the
plan proved a perfect success,
and with the necessary COOP
Grafton given those who plan
ned and carried it out, every
one will agree that there was
satisfaction. The matches, re-
CARELESS of who won or lost,
served their purpose, which
was not only to provide
amusement and recreation for
those who took part in them,
and particularly the visitors,
but to help bring more closely
Virgin Islanders at home and
abroad.
ACCOMPANYING the crick
eters, were very many friends
and enthusiasts, who took the
opportunity to make their visit
coincide with the tournament,
and it was indeed enjoyable.
Many who had left the islands
for years and years took this
occasion to visit and renew
long-standing friendships, and
visit with their relatives. In
many ways it was a real home
coming, and the doors & hearts
of our people were thrown
open to receive the visitors.
ONCE BEFORE we urged
that this tournament could be
the beginning Of a relationship
which could 60 far beyond the
mere playing of a game. It
, 1948-01-15

could serve to unite US with
our brothers on the mainland,
and make for the type of re-
lationship from which both
sides may reap great benefits.
On the mainland, in the thick
OF things, Waere political pres
sure may be applied most else
tive, a solid, properly organic
ed group Of Virgin Islanders
under conscientious leadership
can help these islands get
across many an important pro-
blem. And that is not new, for
every other racial and national
group in America works close
ly with their homelands. Right
in New York may be found
strong organizations of tia
lians, Irish, French, Finnish,
and others who, through their
Influence help not only them
selves, but the people they re-
present back home. And be-
lieve it or not we can take adj
vantage of the very same prin-
ciples.
A WORD OF commentator
must 60 to Daniel Joseph, who
worked from the very begin
ming in trying to put over the
project; to the members of the
committee: Ira Ross, Christian
Farrelly, S. Christian Chase
Dr.. D. c. Canegata, and r. H.
Amphlett Leader, who worked.
closely with Mr.. Joseph and
others; and finally to the Coun
Gil and Administration whose
appropriation helped to fur
Their the project.
WE WISH the visitors a safe
return trip, and may they take
with them the fondest memoir
les and best wishes from these
shores. We send with them
also the greetings from our
people to our brothers on the
