Our New Years Wish to You

A S 1851 dawns we are reminded of the
"A story about the old lady and the parrot
AS you will probably recall, she purchased
the bird from a sailor and was somewhat
chagrined to discover that its talk was heav-
lily weighted with profanity However, since
she had paid good money for the bird and
found it an interesting if somewhat vulgar
companion, she kept it. Liking to sleep late
in the morning, she fashioned cover to
darken the cage and keep the parrot quiet
until she awakened.
One morning shortly after she had re-
moved the cover she happened to glance out
the front window and saw the parson COM
ing up the porch steps for an unexpected
call. Not wanting the reverend gentleman
to hear the boisterous bird, she hastily put
the cover back on the cage But not fast
enough to smother the raucus protest-"this
has been devil of short day."
In like manner at the beginning of this
new year the people Of America, and of
the rest of the world, may well say soberly
to themselves and to each other-"this has
been a tragically short peace"
With the end of World war only five
years behind us, we are fighting another
war in Korea And we see the menacing
clouds of a vastly more terrible struggle on
the horizon Realization of the dream of a
century of peace during which mankind
might devote itself to constructive economic
progress and spiritual advancement seem
farther away than ever.
In the present crisis, the problems of
Montana farmer-stockman. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1947-1993, 1951-01-01

even year ago look relatively insignifi-
cant. Then we were concerned with the
probability Of a somewhat troublesome de-
flation. While another war in this genera
ton seemed possible, we still told ourselves
that such danger was comparatively re-
mote Reason, we felt would surely prevail.
But ominous as the outlook appears to-
day, there is satisfaction and hope in the fact
that America and other free nations are at
last on the alert. If we move swiftly enough
and unitedly enough World war 8 may still
be averted. Now that we are finally con-
WINGED that peace can be maintained only
through strength, our. course is clear. We
must work together as never before. We
must make whatever sacrifices are neces-
sary to achieve an all-powerful defense.
What are long hours, heavy taxes, doing
without luxuries, even life itself, when free
dom is at stake.
If we could brush back the curtain Of
the future, we might see that our only real
danger now is the danger that, individually
and collectively, we may fail to measure up
fully to this great challenge of our day and
our generation. More even than in the days
of the American revolution, there is desper-
ate need that the spirit of "give me liberty
or give me death, burns fiercely in every
heart.
So our wish to every reader of Montana
Farmer-Stockman is for year of courage,
determination, willing sacrifice and faith. IL
these be our watchwords 1851. may yet be-
come also new year of happiness.

married men before long. College defer
ments may also be discontinued.
In legitimate hardship cases the individ-
ua1 draftee must himself sign the request
for defernent in most instances. He will
then be asked to present his case before the
local board. Some boards have suggested
that he will receive just as careful hear
ing, and perhaps more consideration, if he
does this without the aid of lawyers, friends
or relatives. In fact, board members are not
required to listen to anyone but the draftee
himself, although they usually agree to hear
other interested persons if definite request
is made
If boy feels that he has not been given
the proper classification he may ask for q
hearing by the local board or he may appeal
to state board which is set up to review
appeals from classification.

such means. That has been amply demon
strated under a variety of conditions The
question is whether it can be properly con-
trolled. And under what conditions it can
be made successful. There are also POSSIBLE
ties of legal complications because while
farmers in one locality may be benefited
by the heavier rains, other farmers engaged
in hay making or other activities may be
injured. But there are wide areas in the

Farming as way of life has embedded
democracy's roots firmly in the American
soil. Down through history, agriculture al
ways has made and is still making more
than material contributions to our economy
and our national strength. Ever since the
founding of our nation, people who owned
and titled their own soil have contributed
a strong, stabilizing influence upon our
national life. Such farmers are still solid
bulwark of democracy-a real safeguard
against the inroads of communism in our
land. Charles F. Brannan, secretary Of

VOU CAN stop pointing your finger at

by study of motor car accidents by age
groups conducted by Iowa State college.

in the 2o-24 age group with a reported acci-
dent rate Of 1.50 percent per 100000 miles,
according to the Iowa survey. Next come

of 81 while the $3.50 bracket registers .83

 Although Fairbanks has gone through one black out and continual military alerts in the past lew days Operation Firestep isn't by any means
 The war games are to continue until April 22 There are still many practice maneuvers scheduled for Fairbanks.
 We are going to repeat appeal to all residents this area to cooperate wholeheartedly with the mi tary in these practice maneuvers. The military isn't going through these drills be- cause the men of the armed forces like to harass the public or because they like to practice war They are preparing to defend Alaska, and the people of the Territory. It is to the utmost bene1lt of every Alaskan that the military get every chance to prepare for aggression in this strategic area or the globe.
 It was heartening to see the fine way Fairbanks ans responded in the backout Wednesday night. The vast majority of residents took the practice raid seriously and there were few lights showing in resi- dental districts.
 But downtown, it was a different matter. There were lights showing in stores and shops on the man streets and some of them burned right through the blackout.
 Any light anywhere in this area would endangef everyone the city in the event of actual hosttes bombarder doesn't need to see five or ten 1ghts to get his sights city. He needs only light or two to find his target. One careless home or snop owner can undo all the efforts of local residents to blackout.

HOUSING COSTS IN ALASKA

Recognition of construction cost problems in Alaska and the other Territories was given by the Senate when passing the housing act of 1851.
 The bill which provides for Federal defense hous- ing construction through private contractors, pre- scrbes limits of s9OOO $loooo and s1l,ooo for the average cost of two, three and four-bedroom family dwelling units. These limits would be subject to an increase of 50 per cent in the Territories.
 In addition, Federal Housing Administration mort gage amounts allowable in Alaska would be raised to a point 50 per cent higher than in the continental United States. Under existing law the Federal Hous- ing Commissioner, the basis of higher costs, IS permitted increase by onethird the maximum dol lar amount otherwise applicable to mortgages eligible for insurance under the National Housing Act With respect to property in Alaska The provision m the Senate-approved housing act for 1851 would change such one-thrd authorized increase to one-haf
