of the livestock committee reports
and see what might and can be done
by ranchers and farmers themselves.
These have been chosen somewhat at
random from the seven district re-
ports.
Feed reserves are not generally
adequate for properly wintering live
stock. Every stockman should have
two-year supply on hand in the
fall. More straw could profitably be
used for winter feeding. !"
These suggestions are particularly
to the point this year. They are
specifically things which only the
rancher can do. True, the best of us
need reminders now and then and
the extension men must keep ham
mering away on a livestock and
feed balance for every ranch. But
only the operator himself can get the
job done. How many newcomers
will bypass these particular recon-
mendations? Consider this fact:
Three times in the past 10 years the
army has been called upon to open
roads and haul feed in Montana.
Why?
Continue research on production
testing of livestock and make in
formation available to producer"
The research is being continued. In
formation is available. Only the sire
sale consignors or buyers can sub

improve their public relations and to
aid in the study and improvement of
the big game problem. Control pro-
grams for insects, rodents, predators,
weeds, certain diseases and even dogs
depend on rancher participation. In
many instances farmers and stock
men were urged to 'get and use I'M
biased information now available" to
solve their problems.
Will these self-assignments by
ranchers be carried out and accom-
plished? Yes, many of them will, as
has been so splendidly demonstrated
in the past. Who but the ranchers
themselves organized and built up
the livestock associations? Who has
supported the long standing preda-
tory animal control program? Who
has spread most Of the grasshopper
bait? Who has been vaccinating for
blackleg for 40 years? The ranchers
and farmers, of course!
But don't we have a little differ
ent point of view now than we had
20, 80 or 40 years ago? Aren't we a
little more inclined to say, LET
George do it," It's an old saying
with new application. And further,
we have a pretty stable crop of new
ranchers young men, strangers
and lot of nonresident owners.
Will they take hold of these self
assignments coming out of the Rural
Progress conferences or will they

old individual judging method.
All Require Follow-Up
These are a few examples. The
full report has dozen or two more
on livestock which will depend on
stockman action if accomplishments
are made. You might go on and say
that all of the recommendations will
require rancher and farmer follow
up if results are to be fully realized.
There is another commanding fact.
Many hundred good minds spent
many thousand good hours thinking,
discussing. arguing and concluding
these recommendations They are
important, valuable and wise. Let
us be sure to wiring every bit of bene-

AT EACH of the seven district
Rural Progress conferences last win
ter, Montana's livestock industry was
a separate committee topic. Strong
and interested groups of ranchmen
and ranchwomen studied the current
situation of their business, DELHI
Grated on the trends and changes
taking place and recommended de-
sirable developments and activities
for the immediate future.
These recommendations for the
future, coming as they do from the
people most concerned, are receiv-
ing great deal of attention and
study at Montana State college by
all three of its divisions, the expert
ment station, the extension service
and the college itself. The recon-
mendationS are regarded as specific
requests to be fulfilled as rapidly as
time and personnel and fact find
ings-wiH permit.
What the people said about the
livestock industry fills many printed
pages. All of it is available to inter-
ested persons in the new bulletin,
''What the People Said at Montana
Rural Progress Conferences 1882"
Your county agent can furnish you
your copy.
Make Selves Responsible
The ranchers and livestock people
have charged themselves with re-
sponsibilities in these recommends

ton, for example; to organize still
more local livestock associations; to

Hazel KeH Writes Of
 Nome OldtimerS 'In States

An interesting letter from Ha- gel Kell, who is planning to oper- ate Sunset Mines but is held up because of the maritime strike, tells of several former Nomeites.
 She states she called on John Eberle, "the harness man" of the early days, now 93 years old and in a sanitarium in San Francisco.
 John Becker, machinist who left Nome in 1884, passed away in Seattle last week at the age of 97. Surviving him are his daugh- ter, Mrs. Jack Lundstam of Ed mons, and his son Henry of Se- attle. Many Nomeites attended his funeral.
 She reports that three former Nomeites who have been very ill are recovering. They are Sam Taggert, Charles Code and Dave Gray.
 She also told of interesting plans being made for special gathering of Nome Pioneers at the Sourdough Convention to be held in Seattle in August.

Most Drownings Here Claim
Persons Over Is Years Old
YMCA and Star
Offer Free Glasses
In SWIMMING

The majority Of drownings In
Washington last year were not
among children. but among per-
sons over Is years old.
Fifteen Of az such fatalities were
adults or persons in their late
teens. This points UP the fact
that many young men simply
don't know how to swim.
To fill this need. the YMCA, in
lco-operation with The Star, will
hold its annual Mems Learn-to-
Swim Campaign June 2 through
June 7 at the Central YMCA, 1886
81 street NV. Three hundred
men from Is to lis can be ac-
commodated in the classes.
According to figures Of the Ma
tional Safety Council. drownings
are second only to automobile ac-
cidents in the number Of acciden-
tai deaths between the ages Of s
and "a. During 1851, 6,200 persons
drowned in the United States.
Six Hours Of Instruction.
More than half of all drownings
occur during the summer. The
primary objective of the Mems
Learn-to-Swim Campaign is to
prevent such fatalities in the
Washington area this year.
The course will consist Of an
hours instruction on each of the
six days. Well-trained YMCA per-
sonnel will supervise all classes.
Glasses will be at 8, 10 and II
am; !. 2. 3 ana 4 o'clock in the
afternoons, and s. z and 8 at
night. officials urge applicants to
enroll for the morning or after
noon classes If possible, as the
enrolment for the night classes
is already heavy.
To enable as many daily en-
ployed men to attend the eve
ming classes, officials are limiting
youths under II to the day classes.
Youths Urged to Sign Up.
Since this years campaign was
announced in last Sundays Star,
more than SO coupons have been
returned. in addition to many

D. {. Man Fatally Hurt
In Maryland Crash

Karl D. Broman. SO. of 1873
Tennessee avenue NE, was fatally
injured in an automobile accident
last night in Charles County, Md,
as he was returning home to spend
the Christmas holidays with his
family.
Mr.. Broman died of a crushed
chest several hours after the
crash. Maryland State police re-
ported that he was attempting to
pass another car and crashed
head-on into a car driven by Ray
mundo Fernandez, AZ, of Ports
mouth, Va. Mr.. Fernandez was
slightly injured.
The crash occurred about $40
pm. on Route 301 half mile
south of Bel Alton.
Mr.. Bronan was a conStruc-
ton superintendent for the Curtis
Building Co. of Washington and
was working at the Dahlgren (VaD
Naval Proving Grounds at the
time of his death. He was driving
home to spend Christmas with his
wife. Mrs. Esther Broman. and

a Children Rescued
From Gas-FiIIed Home

Four children were rescue from
a house filled with sulphur dioxide
from a leaking refrigerator yes
terday by a clerk from a nearby
liquor and grocery store.
The rescuer, Frank Parker, As,
colored. of 906 Seventh street Sc,
a clerk at Nathan Bernstein's
store at 81 M street S.W.. and one
of the rescued children were
treated at Casualty Hospital.
The children were Eunice But
Ter, II, Ralph Butler, 9, and five
Imonth-old twins Geraldine and

|S.W. All are colored.
Mrs. Mildred Butler. 38, mother
of the Butler children, said she

Butler could stop them the chill

They feel that. so long as hearings
are held and bills allowed to come
up for a vote, there is q good
chance of achieving some of their
objectives.
For example, when the chips
were down. Mr.. Rees has always
voted for Federal pay-raise legis-
lation, even though at first he may
have been less than enthusiastic.
What his position will be on q
Federal pay raise remains to be
seen.
INITIATIVE-The initiative on
most Federal employe bills is ex-
pected to come from the Senate
Civil Service Committee for the
uext few years. This has proved
to be the case for the last few
years as well.
In other words. it will be up to
the Senate group to get the various
bills cleared for Senate action be-
fore any move by the House Civil
Service Committee can be ex-
Ipected.
VIEWS-Mr. Rees can be ex-
Ipected to support moves to mod
ernize and streamline the Gov
ernment's personnel system. He
is a strong believer in the merit
system.
Also, Mr.. Rees feels that Fed
eral employment can be reduced
through more businesslike pro-
cedures. He doesn't advocate mass
firings, but he feels that some
reductions can be made.
The Kansan favors a stronger
Civil Service Commission, with
more authority and power in ad-
ministering Federal personnel
policies. He is critical of personal
patronage, which he charges
exists on a wide scale in Govern
ment. Favoritism plays a large
part in determining promotions
and assignments in Government
and has greatly deteriorated en-
Evening star., 1952-12-25

Actually, the committee under
Mr.. Rees' Craftsmanship will follow
the same conservative course it
did under Representative Murray,
Democrat, of Tennessee, the out
going chairman. Both men are
conservatives and follow a slow
and cautious approach, so far as
Federal employe benefits are
concerned.
However, it should be noted
that, during the 80th Congress,
when Mr.. Rees was chairman of
the committee, Federal employees
received a pay raise as well as
Increased retirement benefits,
Likewise, Federal pay boost and
Ia pension increase for retired
Government workers was voted by
the past Congress.
What all this means is that Mr.
Rees. like Mr.. Murray. wants to
be sure of his ground before TAX
ing any action. In fact, employe
leaders feel Mr.. Rees, even though
he has sometimes opposed them
on various bills, has been very fai1
about giving them hearings on
Legislation and pushing the meas
ures he felt were worthwhile.
If he will continue to do this
employe leaders will be satisfied
