and then transferred to streams
suitable for habitation of trout.
Consent of a ditch company owning
a canal in the vicinity of the pond
is to be secured for siphoning water
from the ditch to the pond, thus
providing a flow of fresh water.
Raising fish and stocking streams
is a part of the program of the
Laurel Rod and Gun club which was
organized a few weeks ago. The
young fish must attain the size of
fingerlings or better before release,
as 80 per cent or more are lost if
released too young.

Since commercial fertilizer is ex-
pensive and many ranchers may
hesitate to spend the money neces-
sary to do the job, the following
substitution is offered: In range
country where sheep sheds are To-
Gated in the vicinity of many of
the ponds, the sheep manur in the
corrals and pens can he utilized for
fertilization of ponds.
Any Fertilizer Effective
Sportsmen, ranchers and farmers
interested in keeping ponds produc-
tive and in providing continued
fishing, should meet and plan pond
fertilization. Using a 1h-ton capac-
ity truck with applications of one
load per surface acre applied in
May, June and July, as with COM
mercial fertilizer, will show graft
flying results in fish growth and re-
production. Other fertilizers such as
cow, horse or chicken manure can
be used.
The members of the Dawson coun-
ty rod and gun club were anxious
to retain the fishing in a pond that
they were sure was declining. They
got together and hauled several
loads of sheep manure to the pond.
After the application of this fer
tilizer the fish gained weight and
successfully spawned and the pond
now appears to be in balance as to
fish population.
Waterweeds of every kind are
undesirable in fishponds, and fer
tilizers do much to control them.
Submerged weeds are kept from
starting in a pond by early fertiliz-
ing which causes such an increase
in algae that sunlight for growth
doesn't get to the weeds.
Shallow water plants such as cat
tails, marsh grasses and pond lilies
must be controlled by hand pulling.
In the case of the floating plants,
repeated cutting off leaves starves
the big roots anchored in the pond
bottom. Weeds and brush on the
banks of the pond should also be
controlled. A cleared, grassy strip
around the pond improves fishing,
reduces the breeding places of mos
quitoes and keeps the pond free of
undesirable debris.
Best Fishing June-August
Due to the short growing season,
warm water fish in Montana grow
slowly. These fish are most active
during the months of May, June,
July and August. Through the re-
mainder of the season they do not
feed excessively. The large mouth
bass will attain a length of between
8 to IL inches by the third year.
The best time to utilize these fish
for food is during the summer
months when they are active and
respond to lures.
A closed season at spawning time
is not necessary after the bass have
spawned once. There is no danger
of hurting the breeding stock by
hook-and-line fishing.
Fishing the warm water ponds is,
Of course, and individual art and
science with each fisherman. Gen
orally speaking, however, bass bite
best in the ~springtime when their
food supply is lowest. They are

other artificial lures Rlueeills car

that this threat can be eliminated only by the
establishment of a unified democratic Ger
many with a central government under Four
Power control. For only such a Germany
would prevent another Hitler or Bismarck
from rising up with the banner of a united
eastern and western Germany. Only by
establishing unified democratic Germany
in which the German Ruhr is nationalized
can the world make certain that German i'm
perialism will not rise again.
Since the Anglo-American press never took
the trouble to tell its readers precisely what
the Berlin crisis is about, it might perhaps
be useful plainly to state the facts, to make
it clear that the crisis was created by the
west for political reasons and that it did not
achieve the purposes for which western di-
plomacy had created it.
The westmarks were designed and printed
at the end of last year for western state
even before the breakdown of the Foreign
Ministers Conference The Russians pro-
posed Four Power currency talks in Berlin,
and agreement was reached on all points of
principle Then came the London conference
with the Benelux countries belgium, Neither
lands, Luxembourg and the decision to set
up a west German state. Although the Rus
slams declared that this action had destroyed
Four Power government in Germany, they ex-
pressed willingness, right up to the last mo-
ment, to continue currency talks. When the
Allies announced their unilateral action in
the west, the Russians were forced to take
action to protect their zone. clash be-
came inevitable when the westmark in
troduced into Berlin.
Currency reform in the east has been car
red out to give special exchange rates to the
savings of the middle and working classes and
to increase the value of the capital deposits
of nationalized industry and the new peasant
holdings. The east zone is also carrying out
a two-year plan which will steadily raise the
living standard and insure adequate food

stuffs and raw materials to the zone in ex-
change for German industrial production.
The Russians say (and any other country in
the same position would take the same line)
that they cannot allow another currency to be
issued in Berlin undermining the recovery
of the zone.
Like any other great capital, Berlin lives
on its hinterland. Although each power is
responsible for feeding it's own sector, veg
etables fruit meat and similar commodities
have come from the surrounding Soviet zone,
with which Berlins economic life is linked.
In 1947, the German capital had an indus
trial output of two billion marks, but its i'm
ports from the three western zones of Ger
many amounted to only one hundred and ten
million marks, and exports to the west
reached no more than one hundred and forty
seven million marks.
Realizing these economic facts, the Allies
have ordered that workers in the western
sector receive only twenty-five percent of
their pay in westmarks. Until there is Four
Power agreement in Berlin, the western sec
tors cannot guarantee the seventy-five per-
cent of eastmarks which are needed to con-
tinue normal activities. The Americans hope
to flood the shops in the western sectors of
Berlin with goods which will prove to the
Berliners the superiority of the westmark.
The Russians of course cannot possibly allow
this.
These were some of the elements in the
situation which led to the conversations in
Moscow. The western Allies finally agreed
to Four Power talks on the subject because
they realized that even when the railroad to
Berlin is reopened life cannot go on in the
old way for the west
There will have to be settlement of ques-
tions like currency, customs barriers, and the
like. But all this does not solve the problem
of the demilitarizaton and denazification of
Germany. Basic agreement however is made
difficult if not impossible, so long as western

Is CLUE TO BERLIN CRISIS
BY JOHANNES STEEL

If the control of Berlin were matter to
be decided in the streets, the outcome would
be certain for the west undoubtedly has the
bigger and tougher mobs. The same crowds
which cheered Hitler are now cheering Cen
eral Clay We can pride ourselves on the
fact that all the Nazis are there and ready
to pitch in for us as they did for Hitler
The great point about the Berlin crisis
is that it is meaningless in itself. Inc tate
Of Berlin cannot be separated from that Oh
the rest of Germany
The German problem is indivisible.
AS sensational as the headlines in the news
papers or the charges of the western powers
NAV be. they cannot obscure the fact that
Berlin is merely small item in the German
crisis. That crisis is based on the fear of
an Americanized Germany with its cartel sys-
tenn integrated into American monopoly;
Germany once again transformed into base
not only of military aggression but an eco
nomic base for German commercial expansion
into western Europe. The people of Europe
fear that such an Americanized western Ger
MANY will function in western Europe in the

economic lebensraum functioned in eastern

ploitation of private monopoly.

extreme significance in this connection. The
Schacht case again points up the direction

German industries and the capitalization of
German resources from America remain the
kingpin of the Marshall Plan.
The most revealing comment in this con-
nection was made by the conservative London
Economist which, terming the Soviet propos-
ais for the solution of the German problem
generally as 'being reasonable" urged the
western powers not to agree with these pro-
posals since zone of the pillars of the Mar
shall Plan would fall"
This of course is the real point at issue.
The west does not want any general German
settlement; for this would involve the issue of
German Preparations to the United States
we'll as the question of the future of the Ruhr
industrial potential and. its possible socaiza-
ton and Observation-Disclosures.
The London Economist which speaks for
international finance capital therefore states
unashamedly: ga mere enumeration of the
conditions which would make general Ger
man settlement safe and acceptable to the
west suggests the high unlikelihood of the
Russians accepting them"
The Economist then goes on to say that
Russian acceptance of any kind of general
settlement proposed by the west would entail
grave inconvenience to the western powers.
In the unwillingness to discuss a general
settlement lies the seeds for the incidents
which have taken place in Berlin.
Anglo-American policy in Germany is
aimed at the deliberate creation of a Fourth
Reich and the complete rehabilitation of
whatever German territories under west
ern control
This is why German court dared to acquit
Schacht. This is why General Clay has COM
muted the death sentence of Use Koch, wife
of the Buchenwald concentration camp COM
mandant who used the skin of camp inmates
to make lampshades. There can be no more
fitting comment on American Military Gov
eminent policy and activity in Germany than
General Clay's charming gesture to Frau
Koch.
