Plan to Reduce
Labor Needs

IF THE DEFENSE program con-
tinues as planned, one of the biggest
headaches for Montana and Wyo-
ming farmers and ranchers will be-
labor, according to A. w. Willis,
economist of the Wyoming Agri-
cultural Extension service.
Now is a good time, and none too
soon, to consider management
changes that can be made for this
year or next to cut down or elirni-
nate hired farm labor. If hired labor
cannot be eliminated entirely, the
next best thing is to secure supply
of labor of nonmilitary ages and
qualifications.
Willis gives some rules to consider
in reducing the amount of needed
hired labor: additional or new
machinery; 2-changes in irrigation
systems and methods; 3-more or
better-placed pasture or field fences,
and revisions in cropping and live
stock production plans.
If you must have hired help, get
the best there is by having: Inn
proved living conditions for labor,
especially housing for married help;
2-provision for gardens, chickens,
milk cows, ETC., which reduce labor
ers' living costs; 3-vacations with
pay; arrangements to keep farm
labor regularly employed and thus
qualified under the social security
act for retirement, unemployment
compensation, and financial assist
ance to dependents in case of death
of insured employee.

Concrete Bulletin
Now Available

MANY OF THE mistakes that re-
suit in poor concrete can be elini-
mated, says R. c. DeHart of the civil
engineering department at Montana
State college and explains why in
bulletin, Portland Cement Con-
crete,' now ready for distribution.
The bulletin first discusses the five
types of cement, their uses, how to
store them safely and how to tell if
cement is safe to use after long stor-
age. DeHart points out also that the
important factor affecting strength of
concrete is the amount of water.
Tables show sizes of aggregate for
different purposes and give the re-
lationship between water and
strength of concrete.
DeHart uses illustrations to show
how properly mixed concrete looks.
Other illustrations compare concrete
with and without air entrainment.
Other points in the bulletin are
curing of concrete, durability, water
proof concrete, concrete for use in
alkai soils and information about
ready mixed concrete.
Copies of the bulletin may be OBJ
tanned by writing the Engineering

college, Bozeman.

NEW YORK (GlobaD The
loyalty of the Negro to this coun-
try and his support of its fighting
forces is as strong as that of any
other group that helps make up
the nations cosmopolitan popula-
ton. But just the same, he is
not as enthusiastic about the blood
donating program as he could be,
and there's reason.
Uncle Sam and the Red Cross
have not made the Negro very
happy about his blood Gust this
past week an editor of a Negro
newspaper in Alabama has pro-
tested the segregation of blood
from Negroes-an act designed to
show there is a difference in the
blood of human beings.
With the military virtually cry
ing for more blood and with high
pressure advertising campaigns
being put forth to urge Americans
to give more blood, it is regret
table that the vast source that
might be tapped is not giving its
full quota, and it certainly is not.
The Red Cross and the military
whoever is responsible-ought to
face up to the problem. 1t has
been proved beyond question that
there is no distinction in blood
as to race. Whoever is doing it,
ought to quit segregating blood,
and if the precious fluid is as
badly needed as they claim it is,
they ought to try getting it from
every possible element, and quit
being puerile.
1t is seriously doubtful whether
a white CT, facing death in Korea
from the loss of blood, would be
so choosey as to reject a pint of
the life-saving liquid just because
it came from the veins of a Negro.
Nor is it likely that his person
atty would be changed if blood
taken from Negro were trans
fused into him.
The whole idea of segregating
blood was silly from the begin
ming, and was done only to per-
petuate the myth of racial infer
iority. 1t should never have been
tolerated, but in times like these,
the foolishness is much too costly
to be allowed to continue.
1t would seem sensible to use
blood from animals if it were
found not to be harmful and
would save American lives, but
to segregate the blood of human
beings!
We ought to cut out the COM
edy. If we need blood and every
thing points to the fact that we
do, then let's get it and get it
overseas in a hurry.
