Yellow Perch Run Deep

While most pan fish prefer the
shadows, yellow perch in particular
are hardly adventurers. They ex-
plore the deepest areas of lakes,
especially in the spring-holes in the
summer months, and have been
caught at depths of 100 feet.
On bright sunny days it is fun
to watch a school of perch or sun
fish huddle in the shade of your
boat, swim leisurely around the
worm-covercd hook, and then see
a fish grab the wriggling end of
the bait. AS the energetic fellow is
played, his schoolmates scamper
off in every direction.
In the evenings, an hour or two
before shutdown, it is best to anchor
few yards from a rocky shore
and cast the worm into the deeper
water bordering the rocks. Pan fish
are generally sharp-eyed and will
see your lure from a considerable
distance away. A timely twitch of
the bait, however, is helpful in
gaining attention.
In streams, or while evening fish
ing on lakes, tiny minnows often
make good bait. They should be
allowed to move about freely in
quiet areas near the bottom.

RAILROADS.:
Strikes Close Steel

The brotherhood of railroad train
men and order of railway conduc-
tors went on strike against three
terminal railroads, disrupting sew
eral of the country's steel arteries
in the midst of the Korean war.
However, with the steel industry
pressed to capacity to meet the
needs of the stepped-up munitions
program and the booming civilian
economy, many sources predicted
that President Truman would seize
the lines.
The unions singled out key termi-
nails in Louisville, St. Paul and Chi
cago and Republic SteePs switching
terminal at Cleveland for the first
display of pressure. About 1000 men
walked out for five days. Approx
mately 10000 workers, including
steelworkers, were made idle
Negotiations between manage
ment d union representatives,

Steelman taking part, produced NO

ment would take drastic action be-
fore the situation deteriorated and

WHEAT:
Highest Level

The agricultural department has
fixed price supports for 1851 wheat
at the same level as the 1850 crop
80 per cent of parity.
The department said 72,800,000
acres of wheat may be planted. If
yields are average, this acreage
would produce 1,15O, 100000 bushels.
This years crop is estimated at
6,OOO,OOO bushels.
In fixing the wheat support at the
highest possible level, Secretary Of
Agriculture Brannan said:
SIN view of the world situation,
It is imperative that our supply of
bread grains be maintained in
strong position. Ample supplies will
be major factor in assuring rea-
sonable food prices to consumers
and our ability to meet our interna-
tional food obligations.
1--WE believe the wheat-production
and price-support programs have
been developed to protect the in
terests of both producers and con-
sumers."
The price support announcement
had been expected, since Brannan
Is required by law to announce sup
ports in advance of planting; winter
wheat planting starts this month.
Only farmers who keep within
acreage-allotment limits can get
price supports.

FARMERS:
In Fine Shape

In a major speech at Carlisle,
Indiana, Secretary of Agriculture
Brannan asserted that the nation's
farmers are in "fine shape" and
took the opportunity to put in anoth-
er plug for his farm plan.
Said the secretary: even allow
ing for increases in military food
requirements we expect to have
enough food so that civilians can
continue consuming as much as
In the past two years."
Farmers worried about possible
economic controls of agriculture
were treasured when the secretary
said there are grounds for hope that
such controls can be postponed for
a considerab time or perhaps
avoided carbohydrates the emer-
gency becomes much worse"
Talking up the Brannan plan, the
secretary said we need a program
which "solidly protects farm prices
In case of a sudden slackening of
demand" yet puts an abundance
Of milk, eggs, and other perishables
In the hands of consumers at at
tractive prices"
Brannan added that the present
program of sliding-scale price sup
ports fail to assure support on some
Of the most important commodities
and offers no incentive for neces-
sary production shifts.

New Duck Stamp

4 PICTURE of two trumpeter
- swans flying over Red Rock
Lakes National Wildlife Refuge in
Montana was chosen in January
for the 18th duck stamp in the us.
Fish and Wildlife Services annual
duck stamp competition in Wash
ington, D. c. The artist of the win
ming design is Walter A. Weber, of
Washington, D. c.
Walter Weber is the first former
duck stamp artist to win the compe-
tition a second time. His first design
was used for the 1944-45 duck
stamp. That design showed three
White-fronted geese. This years
winner-of trumpeter swans-is the
first design to show a species of
waterfowl completely protected by
law. There were only 70 trumpeters
in the us. in 1885, and they were
thought to be approaching extinc-
ton. Under the protection of the
Fish and Wildlife Service-principal-
ly at Red Rock Lake Refuge-the
swans have reached a population of
451 in 1949
Runner-up in the competition was
A. H. Short, of St. Vital, Manitoba,
Canada. Mr.. Shorts picture of
two blue-winged teal marks the first
time that an artist from outside
the us. has entered the competition.
Receiving honorable mention was
]. Laurence Murray, of Compton,
California, with his picture of three
pintail ducks.
A total of 88 designs were sent in
by IS contestants. Of these, num-
Der were from children, and at
least a dozen were from women.
Only few women have submitted
entries in form er competition.
Twenty-Five states, the District of
Columbia, and Canada were repre-
scented among the entries.

Tips To Anglers

Too many anglers miss the en-
ioyment of tasting the result of
pleasant day of fishing. Stones
make good cook stove. Take two
large flat stones and four smaller
ones. Use the four smaller stones
as supports for one of the larger
ones and lay the other large one on
the ground. Build fire around the
stones which should be heated un-
til quite hot. Permit the fire to die
down, clean out Goals and ashes and
Slip the fish inside the unit.

HOME-FRONT:
Mobilization Bill

The senate, by a vote of IS to 8,
passed a home-front mobilization
bill which would give President
Truman power to invoke wage
price-rationing controls and other
anti-inflation curbs at any time.
The bill then went to a senate
house conference for the ironing
out of differences between the SEN
ate measure and the bill passed
earlier by the house.
In one point the bill was a defeat
for the administration since it di-
rected the President to put wage
and price controls into effect stimuli
taneously and virtually across the
board if he invoked them at all.
The President has maintained he
sees no need of wage-price curbs
or rationing at this time. Further,
the administration requested au-
thority to control commodity specu-
lation, but neither the house or SEN
ate versions contain such authority.
Both bills contain an anti-hoard-
ing provision prohibiting the ac-
cumulation of excessive supplies Of
goods designed as scarce.
The administration u e d
another setback in that it's plea for
retention of the provision which
would let the President fix controls
on selected commodities-meat, for
example-in advance of any general
controls program, was defeated.

KOREA:
Picture Changes

AS the Korean war went into the
third month military observers were
inclined to comment "the picture
has changed" And from available
information it seemed the Commu-
nists had lost the power to mount
great offensives involving thousands
of men.
North Koreans launched one at
tack in force, its objective the city
of Taegu, temporary capital of the
South Korean republic and supply
terminal for U. N. forces. 1t failed.
In some of the bloodiest fighting
of the war, U. S. and South Korean
troops smashed the offensive, held
Taegu, and then proceeded to smash
bulges all along their lines.
One of the most spectacular oper-
atoms of the Korean battle was the
concentrated air attack on an as
sembly area at Waegwan, involving
SO B-29's each loaded with 40 500
pound all purpose bombs. The load
was dropped in rectangle tn
miles long and 31s miles wide.
General Macarthur, commander
of United Nations forces, in a re-
port to the security council said:
1.-THE ground fighting continues to
be of the most savage character. "
Our outnumbered forces face an
enemy with "almost fanatical de-
termination. The whole operation
has assumed the character of a
major campaign" He went on to
ask for troops from other members
of the United Nations.
To date the number accepted for
action in Korea included Thailand
1900, the Philippines 5000, Turkey
4,500, and the United Kingdom T.
500. 1t will be several weeks before
they can be brought to battle.
Military observers agreed that
the picture had changed, but added
that it will be "a long and hard
winter in Korea"

PEACE:
There Is Still Hope

The belief that there Is still hope
for peace, perhaps for only short
time, but still respite from world
wide war, is growing in many quar-
tiers. The hope is not one for per-
manent peace, but one of time,
based on the belief in high diplo-
matte circles that the Russians are
not ready for about war at the
moment.
Diplomatic circles call it the
calculated risk" of war or peace.
It is based on three major as
sumptions:
a. Russia fears the effects of
American atom bomb attacks.
(2) Russia does not possess an
adequate stock pile of atomic
bombs.
(3) Russia's industrial potential
is still too weak in comparison with
that of the western allies to risk a
major conflict.
The first two of the assumptions
are, of course, mere guess work
But there are statistics to back up
the third.
For instance, Americas steel
production for 1850 is expected to
exceed II million tons. Great Brit
ain. will produce around 16 million
tons and the rest of western Europe
approximately "a million ton S.
Thus, the allies will produce a total
OF Ill million tons, compared with
Russia's % million.
Russia also lags in the production
OF oil, another of the top essentials
for war.
On these assumptions western
Europe is planning a three-year
rearming program. If the program
is successful peace may be pro-
longed, but the world will be di-
vided into two great armed camps.

Charity in Children

Although Cleanliness is next to
