There's = Screw Loose Somewhere

potato subsidy program lies. While
a New York broker could sell one hum
dred million pounds to Contmunistic
country definitely unfriendly to us. at
one cent per one hundred ponds, Amer-
lean housewives in tEis country were
paving five and six cents pound tor
the same potatoes.
We are not against the support
price on potatoes. 1t, along with some
of the other types of subsidies, has un-
doubtedly helped tc maintain a fair
standard of prosperity in this country.
Yet, when the consumer has to pay five
hundred times the price for the po-
tatoe which are placed on his table as
an exporter shipping them abroad,
then there's a screw loose in the setup.
We don't know whether it is the Bran
nan plan whose plan that needs to
get itself adopted and into law. We
do know that much of the secret of
eliminating surpluseS lies in the price
which consumers have to pay for a
product. If the government wants to
make the most use CT the millions it is
putting into subsidies, then some ar
rangement must be sought whereby
the surplus is not total loss as it is to-
day. Such system is totally without
logic and in our opinion sure way Of
in surfing deficit spending in federal
government.

From this and neighboring coun-
ties farmers have been bringing their
white potatoes to market for several
veeks and what they have't beer able
to sell to buyers, the government IS al

at a parity price. This has been going
on fer several years. And what hap

Won have seen carloads of them dump

which made them unedible. Many
others have been stored to lie and rot.
But last week our potatoes made

saw a way of putting so:ne potatoes to
use, taking them off the governments
hands and at the same time making
himself tidy profit. He made the
Soviet's a proposition in Eastern Ger

wiped the crop clean and people are

price was FOB New York. The whole
transaction was perfectly legal despite

Three years ago we left The Tri-

the change in lessees is partially respon-

Aty still unanswered Is how
the selected who par
ticipated a. Al notice was given
beforehand to sportsmen organl-
cations that the count was to be.
made, 50 that independent lndivid-
uals would go along and see Tor
themselves how the count Was made.
This was not done, and ii the
count a To be impartially made ii
would have been done. 1t was done
under the protecting wing OF the
Park Service people-the indentical
people who have been clamoring Tor
authority TO destroy a great portion
OF the elk herd for years past. and
who have a strong and direct inter
est in initiating the numbers. How
do we know that the statements OF
the private individuals agreed with
each other, and how do we know that
the Park Service correctly announ-
ced what was reported to them :
Maybe they did, but ii it was not,
there was no chance Tor any lndepci-
dent person or body to watch the
process. Those who did take part
were. OF course. invited by the Park
Service.
As to subsequent publication-it
anything appeared in the papers, it
was merely the announcement OF the
total alleged number oil 1000 plus
elk. Copies may have been sent to
chambers OF commerce and country
club here and there, but none to the
Rocky Mountain Sportsmcn'S Assoc
citation.
Again, the figure OF 1000 is ad-
mittcdly based upon an estimate OF
increase. This, (as we said in our
former letter commenting on the
Whitworth letter. is the declaration
OF a seli-proclaimcd expert. II is
known that coyotes are protected IN
the Park. and it is also known that
coyotes take a merciless toll OF elk
calves. What is your estimate OH
that. Mr.. Jofie? And is il not a TACT
that since coyotes have been siren
uously warred upon outside OF the
park, their numbers inside the park
have increased. to the further re-
duction of the annual calf crop?
Lastly-and this is TO the address
OF the Park Service and their friends
and buddies. the predatory livestock
interests-why has there never beer
a horse count in the Park Horses
eat grass too. Too many horses
cause ovcrgrazing as well as elk. The
Forest Service constantly watches
the t~respassing horses on National
Forest lands. Why should no the
