4. Maintaining the farm or ranch
as going concern on a sound
business basis.
Some Of the requirements for a
successful transfer during the life
time of the parents are:
l. Some capable member of the
family who wants to operate and
own the farm.
2. A farm large enough to sup

lowing retirement from the farm.
4. The son or son-in-law and his
family can at a reasonably early
age make definite plans for attain
ing ownership of the home farm.
5. If the family as whole wish
to keep the farm or ranch in the
family, they should be willing to
make the decisions which give the
operating heir assurance that he
will be the future owner of the
home place.
How Can Estates Be Planned?
There are several ways to set
up your estate plan. The most COM
mon practice is to make a will II
a will is to be made it should be
drawn carefully and usually with
the advice of a competent lawyer
The fees for making will are usu
ally not large, especially if you have
thought through what you wan
done with your property. Lawyer
will give you an estimate of thei
fees in advance, if you request then
to do so.
Another common practice Is 3
work out father-son type of al
agreement. At first this is usual,
an agreement for the operation G
the farm. This may later be extende
to include the transfer of the res
estate through cash payment plu
a note and mortgage or by sale
contract.
Another possibility is to transft

cumulated is an estate. Every per-
son has an estate, whether young
or old, whether comfortably we'll
to-do, or whether just barely able
to get along.
It may be that your estate con-
sists of only a few head of live
stock, some worn machinery, well
used car and possibly an insurance
policy. 1t may include large, well
stocked and well equipped farm or
ranch, some insurance policies and
possibly some business property
and some stocks and bonds. Your
estate may be worth only thou
sand dollars or it may be worth
fifty thousand, one hundred thou
sand, five hundred thousand dol
lars or even more.
You have been a good enough
business man to build up an es-
tate. It took hard work and lot
of thinking to build up this prop
erty. You have also had some real
fun and satisfaction in whatever
success you have made.
Will you be good enough bust
ness man to plan your estate so
it will do the things you hope it
will do? This will also take some
work and some thinking and study.
There will be some real satisfac-
ton to you after you have worked
out an estate plan.
The Younger The Better
This estate planning is not just
for people in later life. This plan
ming will help you to build up a
well balanced estate, with enough
cash or readily marketable prop
erty to meet cash costs, such as
creditor accounts, estate taxes and
income taxes, and still leave the
other property in manageable fl
nancial position.
Many estates. are disposed Of at
forced sale and often at sacrifice
prices to meet these costs. BY start
ing your estate planning at an early
age you can also arrange your af-
fairs so your family will not be
financially stranded in case of q
fatal accident. Don't put off this
job. The younger you start the
better.
Estate planning should not be
done with just one objective il
mind.
Some people start out with tn,
idea of leaving a lot Of property
They do this without enough con
sideration of what will happen t
this property when the taxes ar
paid, or when the family get
through fighting over their right
to certain properties.
Some other estates are planne
with the sole purpose of avoid
ing taxes. This might be success:

erty finally is inherited by ther

South Africa Rallies
Start Drive Against
White Racial Laws
By the Associated Press

JOHANNESBURG, South AZ
rica. April 7.-Thousands of South
Africa's non-whites launched a
nationwide campaign against
Prime Minister Daniel F. Malan's
race laws yesterday. Initial ral-
lies in the country's major cities
went off peacefully.
Leaders of Negro, Asiatic and
Icolored (mixed blood) organiza-
Itions hoped the drive would de-
Ivelop into a full-scale passive re-
sistance movement aimed at
crushing the governments policy
of apartheid, or race segregation.
AS strong police and military

demonstrated in Capetown, Dur

The government has power to
jail any one organizing passive
resistance movements or urging
social changes, but no leaders were
arrested yesterday. Neither did
widespread forecasts of clashes be-
tween police and demonstrators
materialize.
The campaign opened on the
300th anniversary of the first
white settlers in South Africa. The
movements leaders said they
would announce later when VOL
unteers are to ignore segregation
laws.
Then blacks would be expected
to throw away the passes they are
required to carry, Indians would

Little America Chompioned

I hope yon won't forget that

by the men In the House of
Representatives and the Sen
ate. Their greatness can make

The pitcher who doesn't get

What kind of support do you
think the Old Guard Republi-
cans in the Congress will give.
and what kind of a chance do
you think they want? Their
batting average is one of al
most total opposition to every
forward step America has taken.

frightened men, frightened by
progress and they want to

est answer to that is that when

3. We have won another
important victory during the
past year. We have done what
many doubters of democracy
thought a democracy could
not do. We have yielded
neither to the hot-heads who
wanted to extend the war nor
to the weakened who wanted
to quit when they found that
the going was tough. The Re-
publican leaders, impatient and
torn by conflicting counsels.
have wavered between reckless
ness and weakness.
I trust that the Democratic
Party will not try to win votes
by encouraging the cruel illu-
sion that there is any easy
solution to this struggle. There
isn't any magic by which the
hammer and sickle of world
communism can be beaten into
a plough-share of peace. Most
Americans know that nothing
less than discipline, restraint,
and concentration by all Of us
on the objectives of survival
and triumph is, sufficient in this
fateful hour of history. Moth
ing less can ensure the safety
Of the America we know and
want our children to know.
This third victory-the VIC
tory over timidity, on the one
hand, and recklessness, on the
other-has won for us the re-
spect which men of sober
strength always enjoy. And
such respect is a powerful
deterrent to aggression.
These are no mean accom-
plishments for a years time: I
think they fully justify my faith
that world was is not inevitable.
think they justify the hope
that by preserving in this diff

No c Candidate Should Make
Promises He Can't Keep


If / could make one rule for
both parties in this campaign.
it would be that no candidate
for high Office would weaken
our perseverance In this struggle
by indulging in promises that
are easy to make and impossible
to keep. We are living in q cruel
and dangerous world-a world
in which the wise man keeps
his rife clean. his guard up,
and tries to think as straight
as he can shoot. And, as much
as we need straight-shooting,
we need straight thinking even
more.
I shall not try to win your
vote by an "all this and Heaven
too" campaign. Moreover I
could not. because you who are
overseas know the score better
than many here at home. The
party that comes to power in
November Is going to have to
ask the American people to put
away childish things and do
manful things. There are no
shortcuts to national security.
There are only shortcuts to
defeat The Democratic Party
has had to deal with this world
problem and deal with its re-
sponsibility for many years. Be-
cause we have faith in the
people, we dare to tell them
the facts and to ask them to
work harder, and to make the
sacrifices that are necessary to
back you up, because that is the
only way to get you back home.
So long as you are asked to
do the unusual, so long must
we put aside politics as usual,
profits as usual, strikes as usual
and pleasure as usual.
This is the basic message
which I hope to bring to the
American people before the
November election. Perhaps it
isn't good politics. I don't know
yet whether one can win an
election with hard, distasteful
truths, but this is the only way
I want to win it. Seekers after
high Office owe 1t to their own
sense Of self-respect as Ameri-
cans, they owe it to the Ameri-
can people, and they owe it to
you who are serving overseas,
to say in this 1852 campaign
what they ask Of the people, not
just what they promise them.
This, I believe, is the only kind
Of political honesty which fits
the savage circumstances Of our
time.
There are a few things I am
going to ask of the American
people.
