Truman Says He Knows 1852 Plans;
Research Group Urges Higher Taxes

CONFIDENT HARRY-Harry S: Truman. appearing fiat and
sassy, as the home town folks would put it, was back in Washington
after his three-week vacation in Florida for a round of activities which
included greeting President Vincent Auriol Of France. and a speech
before LatnAmercan foreign ministers, meeting in Washington to dis
cuss topics concerning western hemisphere peace and security. ,
But it wasn't confident Harry's speech making and social whirl that
made the biggest headlines in the nations press. 1t was his statement
that he knew whether or not he would seek reelection in 1852 that threw
Main Street voters into a surge of speculation. Mr.. Truman told them
blandly that he had made up his mind and he would tell "an in due

The group recently proposed increasing federal taxes by that

to restraining consumer spending-by the sales tax and higher excise
taxes, a surtax on individual incomes. tight restrictions on bank credits

BRANNANS The people of the great midwest farm belt

by Secretary Brannan. The speculation began when Brannan suddenly
announced the replacement of Ralph {. Trgg and Frank K. Wooley in
the powerful production and marketing administration.
The people of Americas bread basket were wondering If the shake
UP may mark the start of another campaign to sell the nation on the
Brannan plan. The average midwest farmer has not been enthusiastic

The statement also caused considera-

politicians throughout the country, with
the majority believing he won't u
again. Remembering that Truman Is nc
amateur politician himself, average
Main Street voters were about equally
divided in their speculation.

Upon one point he was insistent: In
flation must be stopped and the economy
controlled. In this category is farming,
on which the Main Street of America di-
rectly or indirectly depends. He said
careful attention must be given to
changing the farm-price provisions of
the Defense Production Act Gin such a
way as to accomplish a greater degree
of stability in food prices and at the
same time treat farmers equitably in
relation to the other elements Of the
economy"
As for present price controls, he said:
There is no doubt that, if price controls
had not been put on, prices would have
risen much farther and faster since
January than they actually have"

Test Boosts Price
OF Wool Offsorts

MONTANA WOOL growers who
assisted IN an experiment at Mon
tana State college last year, received
as much as IS cents more per pound
for their offsort wool by having it
sorted and secured commercially be-
fore selling.
This is revealed in a report by
James Drummond, superintendent of
the Montana Wool laboratory at
Montana State college. The extra
money received was above what the
growers would have received had
they sold their offsorts when they
sold their wool clips in the spring.
Offsorts include tags, crutchings,
pre-shearing clippings and shearing
floor sweepings. They have shrink
age which may run as high as 85
percent. They are more expensive to
sort and process in securing plants
and their use in manufacturing goods
is limited.
Because of these lower qualities,
wool buyers generally purchase these

HERE is the simplest and most eco
= nomical way to give your dairy
cows and other livestock all the miner
ais they need for thrift, rapid growth,
low feeding costs, and healthy young.
In one side of divided mineral feed
ing box put a mixture of bone meal
and ground limestone, or their equiva-
Tents. In the other put Morton's Free
Choice Trace Mineralized Salt,
Fed free choice, this plan is complete.
1t lets your livestock take as much or
as little as they want. 1t enables them
to balance their own mineral ration.
The bone meal and ground limestone
provide calcium and phosphorus in
quantity. The Trace Mineralized Salt
provides both the salt and the trace
minerals - iron, copper, cobalt, man
ganese, iodine and zinc.
Salt is the logical carrier for trace
minerals. Salt supplies chlorine for the
hydrochloric acid needed to digest pro-
tein-s sodium to help make bile needed
70 digest fats and carbohydrates. Trace
minerals influence the engine, vitamin
and hormone functions - the basic
life activities that build nutrients into
growth, maintenance, and reproduction.
Morton's Trace Mineralized Salt is
like 4 lOw-coSt insurance policy pro-
tecting all your livestock. II costs only
a few cents more per animal per year.

than the price paid for the entire
clip.
Three-Fold Purpose
Drummond experimental with the
offsorts last year for three reasons.
He wanted to have them secured by
a commercial firm to determine their
true value. He also wanted to de-
termine the yield of the various sorts
and to determine whether it would
be profitable for growers to market
their offsort wool on a secured basis.
In the experiment the wool lab
oratory gathered more than 81, 900
pounds of offsort wool from range.
sheep producers from all parts Of the
state and from the Montana Agri-
cultural Experiment station flocks.
These woods were shipped to Cam
den, N. J., where they were sorted
and secured in commercial plant.
Each growers wool was sorted sep
arately into some or all of the vari-
GUS sorts. The weight of each was
taken and similar sorts from each
grower combined to increase the vol
ume for securing.
When Drummond compiled his fig
ures he found that almost half the
total weight of the wool was placed
in the heavy stained sort. This sort
had shrinkage of 63 percent or 81
percent yield. About a fifth of the
shipping weight of the offsorts went
into the light stained sort and had a
shrinkage Of 81 percent or yield of
As percent.
The tag sort, which was nearly a
third of the total weight, had a
shrinkage of SO percent or a yield
of 80 percent. The remaining sorts
and the moisture and air. loss made
up a small percentage of the total.

I sat down at the counter In the Bar-B-Q Cafe
 For a needed cup of coffee After working all the day
 And the languid, sultry beauty That's hashin' in the place
 Calmly drew a cup of coffee, All her movements natural grace
 Flowing music were her movements As she came to me to serve.
 Mentally I weighed the hazard Could l summon up the nerve?
 When l wish cup of coffee Casually she brings it me,
 Not word by me was spoken; It was all telepathy.

 had better curb the rowing Of what little mind is mine
 Would I dare to wish, for instance, Would she heed my humble plea,
 Were I to concentrate my wishes on A nice hot pot of tea?

Disiritt Court
 Observes Birthday Of Constitution

Pointing out that the constitu- tion of the United States, after months of debate, was signed 164 years ago today. Judge George w. Folta. of U. S. District Court this morning opened a brief ceremony in the court room to call attention to the anniversary.
 Various attorneys of Juneau and other citizens attended.
 Judge Folta expressed regret that lack of time and proper publicity prevented a larger celebration on this important milestone of our na- tion's history. He presented Patrick J. Gilmore, district attorney who gave short address.
 Because of the stress of current situations in the world today it is highly appropriate that we observe in our federal court as Constitution Day" Gilmore said. Let us reflect for moment on the importance of our constitution as a living guaranty of the rights and principles of our citizens and as a guide to our Ameri- can way of life"
 Gilmore traced Americas history from the arrival of the colonists, who came to this continent to seek release from physical and spiritual oppression down through wars fought to defend and perpetuate liberty and equality for all men.
 ITO millions of people everywhere, America is a source of new strength and. new hope. :" Gilmore stated. Unfortunately there are certain governments which hate the free- dom we defend. They are dedicated to the proposition that small rul- ing class knows what is best for all" :"
 Gilmore pointed out that as law yers "all of us are sworn to defend our constitution and the guaranties of liberty it contains"
 He concluded by stating that i've should be ever thankful for our constitution, which is the founda- tion of our way of life, and the gov ernment it provides for-the greatest government in the world"
