About an hour after this Situa-

In Trust Case, Insists
On Right 10 Reject Ads
By ths Assoeiated Press

CLEVELAND, June IA de-
fendant in the Mansfield News
Journal Antitrust case declares
I'VE still maintain newspaper
has the right to reject or accept
advertising for any reason"
Samuel Horvitz, publisher. made
this comment on a civil complaint
filed yesterday by the Justice
Department against the news
paper and it's officers.
It was the second such action
against. MIR. Horvitz. and his
brother Isadore. They are pub
Usher and president. respectively
of the Mansfield newspaper ano
the Lorain Journal.
Yesterdays action charged the
News-Journal and its officers with
violating the Sherman Antitrust
Act by conspiring to monopolize
advertising in Mansfield. Spe-
cif1cally. Il. charged the News
Journal refused to accept adver-
tising from merchants whose
advertising was heard on radio
station WMAN, of Mansfield.
Appealed to Supreme Court.
The Justice Department won its
case against the Lorain Journal
in Federal court here. Federal
Judge Emerich B. Freed ordered
the Journal to stop refusing ad-
vertising from those who used
station WEOL, Lorain- -Elyria. The
defendants have appealed the case
to the Supreme Court. and it is
expected to- be heard there next
fall.
Federal attorneys said they
would attempt to get a prelim-
mary injunction against the News
Journal, to halt the practices
which are charged in the COM
plant. In the Lorain case. Fed
eral Court denied preliminary
injunction. pending a decision on
the merits of the case.
Samuel Horvitz said he had been
informed yesterdays complaint
was similar to that in the Lorain
case. He said if the cases were
exactly alike" he presumed a
Supreme Court decision in one
would be binding in the other.
He declared virtually every
State Supreme Court has held a
newspaper has the right to reject
or accept advertising for any rea-
son.
So .Affidavits Submitted.
That's the issue we are taking
to the United States Supreme
Court" he said. "If we will lose,
then it will be too bad for all
newspapers and freedom of the
press in this country"
The Justice Department SUBJ
mitted 36 affidavits. One was
from j. M. O'Hara, president OF
Richland, Inc, which operates
Station WMAN. -Four were from
former employees of the Mansfield
newspaper and 81 were from
Mansfield merchants.
Yesterdays complaint differed
in one. respect from the action In
the Lorain journal case. It noted
that WMAN has been aff1liated
with the American Broadcasting
Co. since 1914. In the Lorain
case, WEOL was described as a
on-network station. The ques-

Britain Was Not Asked
To. Join !, in. in Blockade, ! /
Foreign Office Says
By the Associated Press

LONDON, June IA Foreign
Office spokesman said today, the
United States never has formally
asked Britain to join in a general
naval blockade of Red China.
He was commenting on a state
ment made by Admiral Forrest
Sherman. American Chief of Naval
Operations, saying only Britain
among the United Nations, has
opposed a naval blockade of
China. 10
The spokesman was asked at a
daily news conference whether
Britain in fact is the only coun-
|try-as Admiral Sherman testi-
|fled yesterday at the Senate in
Equiry into Gen. MacArthur's dis
Imissal-opposed to a United Ma
tions blockade of China.
He replied: e".I know of no coun-
try which has expressed itself in
favor Of such a blockade.
He added later that Britain has
received no formal proposal from
the United States suggesting such
action.
Admiral Sherman's testimony
clearly irritated British highups.
Sources in touch with them said
that as long as the United States
has not formally suggested block
aiding China, Admiral Sherman's
statement of the British position
lat least was premature. -
The admiral also told the Sen
late inquiry he thinks an Amer
lean should, head a projected At
Ilantic pact naval command in the
Mediterranean. Britain's naval
capabilities" he added, are not
what they used to be.
The British have been insisting

Washington that the top Mediter-
ranean post should be given to
them. , ias

Although the extreme price
cutting thus far is limited to New

would spread elsewhere. Many
pointed out that retail inventories

the normal way for retailers to

WASHINGTON, d. Govern
ment statisticians are people you hear
very little about, but who have a
big influence over the making of
farm policies in Washington. Pro-
duction planning is based on their
statistics, graphs and charts.
RIGHT now these whizzes al
figures are busy making up their
charts for 1852. That is part Of
their Job. to look ahead and tell
the planners what they. see in the
future. II is all a very compile
Gated and mysterious business.
They estimate, months in advance,
what farm commodity prices will be;
how much of each product we will
need to meet demand; what produce
ton costs viii be and how much
gross and net income farmers can ex-
pect. Over the past several years
they have a record of being right a
great portion of the time.
The planners have been told that
unless something can be done to in
crease feed supplies not later than
next year, livestock producers are
going to be in serious trouble. While
cattle numbers have increased by TO-
100000 and hog numbers by 10000
900 in two years, the supply of feed
had declined steadily. That trend
can't continue indefinitely.
Montana farmer-stockman. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1947-1993, 1951-11-01
q. ooo. GOO cATTLE PEAK

Using these figures govern
nent production planners at
tempt TO chart the probable
course of cattle production over
the next several years. Their
forecast indicates = probable
''peak" of around s4.0O0.O0O head
In 1853.
The forecast assumes that feed pro-
duction will remain at about current
levels, or a little higher, and that
consumer purchasing power will not
change much. Even the forecasters
concede' that these are two big ifs.
The biggest hazard in making such
a forecast is the possibility Of a
drouth.
Barring combination of the two
depression and drouth-such as oc-
Cured in the mid-30s, officials do not
expect another forced liquidation
that could bankrupt a large portion
of cattlemen. They do think, how
ever, some marginal producers will
be forced out of business.
Two factors are likely to weaken
cattle prices somewhat over the next
year or two, officials think. These
are a substantial increase in the num-
Der of beef cattle coming to market
and higher taxes which hold down
'tspendable incomes of consumers.
A third factor, higher feed costs,
probably will add to the pinch on
producers.

should be done for at least another

Upshot of the debate very prob
ably will be a caution" light from
Secretary Brannan which would say,
in effect, to cattlemen: Be reason
ably sure in planning your produc-
ton that you will have the feed to
see it through. Almost certainly he
will not ask, as he has in the past,
for continued livestock expansion.

the only solid basis for the talk
seems TO be q remark by Mike
Disable before senate commit
tee. Disable said that IF we
don't get slaughter controls back
the whole meal control program
may COLLAPSE"
Farm officials here are uncertain
whether Disable merely was trying
to high-pressure congress into pass
ing slaughter controls, or whether he
was sincere in his statement. Most
of them are inclined to believe that
it was pressure talk.
On the other hand, livestock con-
trolls have not worked well and there
is little prospect that they ever will.
Opinion here differs as to how long
OPS can hold on without completely
disrupting the whole meat industry.

FooT-MoUTH BAN

Despite pressure from the
Mexican government and cattle
men there Is vexY little chance
that the ban on imports Of Next
can livestock will be lifted with
in the next several months. The
USDA. backed by American cat
tlemen. is firmly against an early
end Of the quarantine.
A few months ago the department
was all set to end the foot-and-mouth
border quarantine by the end of this
year. Although the new outbreak
near Vera Cruz has been localized"
and there are no signs of the disease
in other areas, officials are afraid to
take a chance.
Before the Vera Cruz outbreak the
department had felt that 12-month
period free of new outbreaks would
indicate that the disease was dead
and that it would be safe to reopen
the border. Now, livestock officials
are not certain that year is long
enough. .

appeared from the Washington
scene. # begins TO look as though
the economic watchdogs cried

The bureau of agricultural eco

sums up the outlook this way: Sup
plies of most consumer foods, includ-
ing foods, are ample. Consumers
have more money than ever before,
but they are not spending it.
In forecasting a period of fairly
stable prices, the BAE says: "The
rapid buildzup of industrial produc-
tive capacity, the substantial inven-
tories of many consumer goods and
the prospective record output of farm
products should serve to moderate
any upward pressure on prices over

EXPANSION VS.. REDUCTION

EXPANSION VS.. REDUCTION
There has been considerable
inside" discussion of proposals
to ask livestock producers to alb
stain from further expansion of
herds because of the Increasingly
light feed supply situation. Top
policy officials. however. shy
away from such a proclamation.
Those who want to flash the red
light on further expansion point to
government figures showing feed re-
serves are being reduced by 100000
to 100000 tons a year. They argue
that even a short feed crop, let alone
a drouth, could force heavy liquida-
ton of livestock numbers in a short
time.
Those who oppose such advice, al
least so far as 1852 is concerned
point to large feed supplies, as com.
