The UnadillG ssociation in New York had about the some number of COWS bred as we did. Their concep- tion rate Wes 47.9 percent and ours YVES 45.3 percent, excluding Nay June and July, (When we were not able to carry the semen to the best advane- age) ou conception rate was 52 per cent. ...
 The conc option rate here is not high on the first service as it is in the Stetos, but the sec ond sorvice is much higher. We cannot account for this unless we are breeding our COWS too soon or too late liter colving. Cows should have about 50 to 60 deys from c0lving to breeding aud should not go longer then 90 days for the best conception rate.

Un-American Probers

Striking back at charges of the
House Committee on Un-Americar

legal bulwark of the Communist
Party" the National Lawyers
Guild today charged the commit
tee Is the "chief instrument for
undermining the whole democratic
process in the United States"
Prof. Thomas I. Emerson, of
Yale University, president of the
Guild, in releasing an 18-page
report prepared by the organiza-
tion's National Executive Board,
emphasized that the Attorney
General after studying the House
Committees report in September
refused to place the Guild on the
Justice Departments subversive
list.
The report charged the Com
mittee has engaged in a "deliber-
ate effort to obscure the issues.

Tear Tor reason in place of a

cedure 1t has f1agrantly violated

Opposed Korean Aggression.
Referring to the committee al
legation that the guild promul-
gated the Communist Party line,
the executive board report said:
AT certain points our immediate
policies and actions are similar to
those of the Communist Party.
So are the policies and actions of
every other liberal organization.
So, at times, are the policies and
actions Of the Republican, Demo-
cratic and other Communist
parties. This does not mean that
we support the Communist Party
or that we support other doctrines
held by the Communist Party.
-. The National Lawyers Guild
Is not a Communist organization,
nor q Communist front organiza-
ton. nor dominated by Commu-
nists."
The report pointed out that
guild is on record as opposed to
"the aggression of North Korea
against South Korea" and in 1889 1
1t protested against Russian in
vasion of Finland.
Will Not Be Intimidated,
The report denounced the
House committee for attempting
to discredit the Guild through
"the technique of listing various
associations with Communist
front organizations as proof of
or subservience to
Communist idealogy."
There is probably no promi-
nent liberal in the country today
who could not be proved a Com
or fellow traveller by this ]
the report added.
Our answer to the committee
Is that we will not be intimidated
or silenced. We will continue to
press forward, to the best of our
ability, with the tasks we have
pledged ourselves to perform.
