LITTLE STATE HAS BIG FEUD

Out-of state Republicans are so anxious to steal Rhode Island away from the Democrats this year they have stepped right into the middle of a local scrap and split the COP worse than ever.
 Today's primary battle on the surface is over the COP nomina- tion for U. S. Senator. Actually, it goes deep into the roots of race and religious feeling and has aroused bitterness which may take years to heal
 The state COP machine has been backing Thomas Pierpont Hazard for the Republican nomina- tion against Republicans Walter Sundlun and Louis Jackvony, the fiIst Jewish, the second Italian.
 COP state bosses are convinced that only hard headed Yankee can beat Democratic Senator Theo- dore Green in the showdown race, and national COP leaders made the mistake Of jumping in on the side of the machine. To this end, Winthrop Aldrich, head of the Chase National Bank, and former Connecticut Senator John Dana her director of Republican Senator ial campaigns. tried to slip into Providence and raise money for bluestocking Hazard, against the Jewish and Italian candidates. A hush-hush meeting was ar ranged at the swank Hope Club by Richmond Viall, manager of Brown and Sharpe Manufacturing Co. News of the meeting leak ed. and. caught in the glare of the public spotlight, Aldrich and Danaher hit the ceiling. Carefully screening everyone at the door, they finally went ahead with theii meeting, hut despite the secrecy here is what happened:

COMMUNICATION

Seattle, September 8, 1948. Editor of The Empire, Dear Sir:
 I wish to take this opportunity to express our gratitude in the mat ter in which the Alaska people re- ceived our group of young boys who were aboard the SS. Twanoh.
 The hospitable nature of the Alaskans certainly did wonders for future citizens of your territory as many of the boys expressed a desire to again visit your fine city.
 Your active Junior Chamber of Commerce under President Dean Goodwin participated in the well come one hundred per cent, and with the type of leadership shown by his organization, I am certain that your city will make tremendous strides in the future.
 Thanking you again, I am Sincerely,

castrate or earmark for at least three
weeks after a change in feed.
Faced with cattle dying of hem
orrhage, a half-dozen dead and six
or eight visibly affected, the grow
er's prospect is not rosy. Losses may
continue for three or four days after
changing feed. 1t is true that a
blood TRANSMISSION, using a pint or so
of blood from a normal cow, will at
once re-establish the CLOTHING ability
of the blood and prevent further
losses.
But the mechanics of this are not
so easy. Suppose we have SO cattle,
all on sweet clover, with 5 dead and
3 sick. Are we to use blood trans
fusions on the other AZ head, or if
not, on which cattle? They all look
o. K. today but four or five may be
sick tomorrow.
TRANSMISSION Not Feasible
And a blood TRANSMISSION is not
simple, it requires a supply of nor
NAL cows as blood donors, and i'm
mediate transference of the blood to
the affected cows. good chutes,
skilled technicians, etc., etc. In most
cases it just couldn't be handled,
certainly not on short notice.
What then are we to do with a
stack of sweet clover hay? There
used to be a recipe for preparing
the Missouri river carp for the table.
The fish is split, and tackled out flat
on a board, and smoked over a slow
fire of alder wood, for two days.
Then the cook scrapes off the fish
and eats the board and the tacks.
1t is our humble opinion that sweet
clover should be we'll stacked, care
fully fenced, and then set afire.

percent in 1947 while cream sales
dropped from 81 percent to IL per-
cent.
Butter will meet continued in
tense competition from margarine.
Consumers used n pound of mar
garine for each 2.3 pounds of butter
in 1947 compared with l to 7.3
pounds in prewar years. Yet, the
butter picture has some encouraging
phases. While consumption per
capita has declined about 6 pounds
from prewar, margarine consump-
ton per capita has declined about
half of the amount that butter lost.
And margarine had to sell at about
half the price of butter, or at a re-
tail discount of around 40 cents a
pound in 1947 to make that gain.
ultimately, the competitive position
of butter will depend considerably
on the final outcome of the proposal,
recently shelved in congress, to re-
move the tax On colored margarine.)
If the gain in per capita consump-
ton of other dairy products is main
tanned, an increase of Is to IS bill
lion pounds of milk would be re-
quired to bring butter consumption
to its prewar level.
Owing to the foreign aid program,
exports of dairy products probably
will be more fully maintained in the
next few years than after World
war /. In 1947, they took 80 per-
cent of total production. In 1859,
the United States imported 2 or 3
percent of its supply.
Relative Position Improving
Prices for hogs, beef cattle and
grains advanced more than dairy
products during the war and post
war inflationary period. However,
they have recently declined more

than dairy products. In any further
downward trend, it is to be expected
that meat animals and grains will
decline more than dairy products
and will become less attractive rela-
tive to d~airying than they have been
in the past year.
Ratios between feed costs and
prices for milk and butter fat, al
though better than last fall and
early winter, remain less favorable
than the long-run average. However,
these ratios will improve by next
fall, unless widespread drouth de-
velops during the summer.
Furthermore, present feeding
ratios are more profitable than the
same ratios would have been when
prices for feed and dairy products
were much lower. Even at today's
price relationship, efficient pro-
ducers are able to make money.
Soil conservation will require a
decrease in cereal and oil seed crops
in the next few years and an in
crease in hay and pasture crops.
Dairying fits well in this change.
Not All Factors Favorable
Not all the portents of the dairy
mans future are favorable, however.
Labor remains scarce and very high
priced. Dairymen who must hire
labor will be at a disadvantage.
INFLAMMATION probably has reduced
labor requirements only 10 to Is
percent in the last few years COM
pared with reductions of so to IS
percent in labor needed in grain pro-
duction.
Also, the economic outlook is I'M
certain. Postwar deflation is to be
expected sooner or later, which
means a loss on inventory of dairy
stock, now very high-priced. The
recent decline in grain and livestock
prices suggested that the slump was
starting. However, the rearmament
program now in prospect may defer
any extreme decline in industrial

Build Up Dairy Herds Now?
Qualified eyes" Appears to Be Ansaver
By GILBERT GUSLER

MILKING herds are down nearly
10 percent from the 1914 all-time
peak and the smallest since 1910.
They have declined about 100000
head in the last three years, after
increasing 100000 from 1888 to
1914.
Chief causes of the decline appear
to have been the short supply and
high cost of labor, better returns
from hogs, beef cattle, wheat and
other cash crops, unfavorable feed
ing ratios part of the time and I'M
willingness to be tied to the old
cows tail when money came in easy
from other activities.
Is it time to rebuild herds? Are
prices or price relationships going to
improve for dairymen?
A qualified eyes" appears to be
the answer. Dairying probably will
be more profitable in relation to
other farm enterprises in the next
few years.
A 25-year record of some of the
chief elements in the situation are
presented on the accompanying
chart.
Yields Increased
While the number of COWS is down,
yields have been coming up and
reached an average of 5000 pounds
of milk per cow in 1947. The poorer
COWS have been going to the butcher
and better heifers have been taking
their place. Also, the cows have
been unusually well fed.
In spite of the smaller number of
cows, total production of milk in
1947 was only 2 percent below the
record set in 1945 and about 9 per-
cent higher than in 1910. However,
with 4 percent fewer cows than last
year, 1948 production of milk prob
ably will be 4 to 6 percent below
1947.
Due to the increase of about 10
percent in population since 1910,
milk production per person has de-
clined quite sharply. In 1913, it
probably will be down near the
1924-39 average. The birth rate has
gone up from about Is to 26 per
1000, so that the increase in pop
ulation has been large in the high
milk-consuming group.
Total utilization of milk in all
forms combined per civilian con
sumner has been rather stable. Much
of the wartime increase in produc,
ton per capita went for export ane
military procurement. After allow
ing for exports, the available supply
per civilian consumer in 1948 prob
ably will be near the average of tn,
previous 25 years.
Milk Sales Up: Cream Down
Consumers have been using an in
creasing proportion of the milk sup
ply as whole milk, cream, cheese
e%vaporated milk, ice cream and drie'
whole milk-forms which Civ
