A recent outbreak of anthrax
among hogs IN previously nom

been attributed to contaminated
bone meal from Belgium. The
meal was used in livestock feed.
The department and the Fed

checked the possibility of sabo-

no evidence the disease had been
planted in the meal Intentionally

The officer. Maj. Carlos F.
Bravo Troncoso, said the plans
were in brief case left for few

contained file on equipment and

Conservatism and IsoIotionism
Shape Attitudes in Grain States

hover because he. like many of
them, has Mennonite ancestry
| South Dakota is supposed to be
strong isolationist territory, but
talks with the farmers reveal little
of that sentiment. Most seem to
agree with Senator Taft that
American efforts to obtain world
peace have been ineptly and ex-
Itravagantly handled, but they do
not concur in the Taft doctrine
that the main concern of the
United States should be in Asia
rather than in Europe.
Nebraska Is ISOlationist.
Whatever reason there may be
to doubt the basic isolationism of
South Dakota, there can be none
as to Nebraska. Conversations with
NebraskanS, in cities OF on farms,
reveal little sense of connection
with the two seaboards, or the
lands that lie beyond.
| The strength of Nebraska isola-
Itionism was amply demonstrated
in the April l primary, in which
Senator Taft defeated Gen. Eisen-
hover in a write-in test. During
the campaign isolationism was the
dominant. almost the only, issue,
with Senator Taft pictured as the
candidate of peace and Gen.
Eisenhower as the spokesman for
intervention and war.
Nebraska stayed in the Repub-
lican ranks in 1948, but the G. O.
p. percentage of the total fell off
nearly 5 per cent from the 1914
figure, possibly because isolation
ism was not an issue in 1948.
Republican strength in Nebras-
ka appears, if anything, to have
Increased in the last four years.
The organization headed by SEN
ator Hugh Butler is tightly in
control.
On issues aside from isolation
ism. the Nebraska approach is
|geared to right-wing Republican,
ism. The economy of the State
'revolves to a great degree around
the cattle industry. The country's
second largest stockyard is in
Omaha. The Stockmen's Associa-
ton, to which the very words
price control are anathema, is a
dominant force.

The Formers Vote
By Robert Roth
North American Newspaper AlIione,


OMAHA. Nebr., May 2O.-The
Midwest arm States that stayed
hitched to the Republican wagon
four years ago will more than
likely do SO again this year, but
only the rashest of political proph-
cts would take it for granted.
No rebellion against traditional
Republicanism is discernible in the
Dakotas, in Nebraska or Kansas.
Neither was any visible, or at any
rate obvious, in 1948 when those
States were counted in the G. o.
P. column by only a slender
margin.
There are a number of circum-
stances that make these western
most of the grain-belt States more
strongly inclined to Republican
ism than their neighbors to the
east.
G. o. p. Rules North Dakota.
North Dakota is about as Re-
publican as State can get. It
went Democratic four times in its
history-in 1912, 1916, 1882 and
1936-but it has more than made
up for that deviation since. In
1948 it was one of the few States
to increase the percentage of its
Republican vote.
North Dakota is 80 per cent
rural. 1t has only five towns with
a population of 10000 or more.
Fargo, its biggest city, has $4,000.
The farms are big. A thousand
acres isn't much there, and lay
outs S and even 10 times that
size are not uncommon. Planting,
cultivation and harvesting are
completely mechanical. The one
big cash crop is wheat.
The typical North Dakota farm
er has come to regard himself as
a businessman, with a big invest
ment in land and machinery to
protect. That naturally inclines
him to conservatism.
He didn't feel that way in the
dust-bowl days-North Dakota
went Democratic by better than 2
to l in 1882 and 1936-but he
does now. He would welcome the
local autonomy and the freedom
from Federal restraints the G. O.
P. promises him.
South Dakota is just as rural
as its sister to the north. It too,
has big farms, but there appears
to be less of the big business atti-
tude among the farmers.
Dewey Takes South Dakota.
South Dakota went Democratic
only twice-in 1882 and 1936-but
in 1948 Gov. Dewey carried the
State over Truman by only 5000.
South Dakotans tend to believe
that the Government should do as
little as possible. That belief does
not extend, however, to Federal
aid for flood control and crop
supports.
The State has an ultraconserva-
tive government. It's constitution
limits State debt to SIS million and
requires that every appropriation
voted by the Legislature be accom-
panied by a tax to pay it.
Farmer talk is not all about farm
problems. Interest is high in poll
tics, though at the moment this is
almost a one-party State, with the
Republicans strongly organized
and the Democrats all but gone
underground.
Newspaper polls show Gen.
Eisenhower and Senator Taft run
ming neck and neck. That is
somewhat surprising in view Of the
fact that many South Dakotans
feel, and say. that they do not
want a military man for President.
It may be that they feel it less
Strongly in the case of Gen. Eisen-

it is not dominant. as it is in
Nebraska.
Kansas farmers have the same
problems as those everywhere
else-and sometimes have them
more acutely, as in the case of the
bottom farmers" who have suf-
fered heavy flood damage-but
they are not inclined to close their
eyes to broader problems in the
national and international fields.
That may be one reason for
Gen. Eisenhower's unquestionable
popularity throughout Kansas. 1t
cannot be accounted for alone by
the fact that Eisenhower was once
in his own phrase, "a Kansas farm
boy"

10000 Edge In Kansas.

Kansas is the most populous of
the farm States that stayed Re-
publican in 1948. The G. o. P.
percentage fell off 5 points from
the 1914 level, but Kansas still
gave Gov. Dewey an edge of 10000
over President Truman, the larg-
est margin the New York Governor
received in any grain-belt area.
Kansas is much more cosmopol-
itan in its makeup and outlook
than the other loyal Republican"
grain States. It has two cities with
more than 100000 population
Kansas City and Wichita-and 81
with more than 10000. It is rated
as SO per cent rural.
It went Democratic for William
Jennings Bryan the first time he
ran, in 1896. 1t went Democratic
again for Woodrow Wilson in 1912
and 1916, and for Franklin D.
Roosevelt in 1892 and 1896. Other
wise, it has been Republican.
There is some isolationism In
Kansas, but not much. Certainly
