SCANNING THE WEEKS NEWS
Of Main Street and the World
Allies in Accord on United Army;
Drug May WI pc Out tuberculosis

EUROPEAN ARMy-The members Of the North Atlantic Treaty
Organization have reached agreement on four important points for the
defense of Western Europe and the strengthening of the united army
which may mean the salvation of the democratic form of government.
Each of the points will involve great sacrifice on the part of every gov
eminent, by soldiers, and by the taxpayers of the participating nations
Most important, perhaps, was the agreement to provide about SO
conbatready land divisions and 1000 operations aircraft for European
defense this year in addition to forces Greece and Turkey can make
available. .-
Second, and possibly the most controversial, to approve the general
outlines of a plan partially drafted by France, West Germany, Italy,
and the Benelux nations to merge their armies into a European defense
force. Under this plan the Allies of World War II propose to rearm West
en Germany. The arming of West Germany, however, must be ap-
proved by the governing bodies of the countries involved in the treaty.
Whether the French will ratiy the proposal is still in doubt. If turned
down by the French National Assembly it could mean the collapse of the
unified army. ~~ So. .-~
Third, the N.ATO. nations agreed to create a board to make a
detailed study of the western worlds needs for airfnlds, barracks, COM
munications lines, and other army-supporting facilities, and recommend
how to share the cost of building them.
And fourth, to streamlne the NATO. itself and make it more
efficient, n a pattern roughly like that of the United Nations secretariat
instead of the present overlapping boards and committees.
The plan for a Subdivision army this year means that 20 more divi-
sions will have to be recruited and armed in the next 10 months. One
authority interpreted the plan in these words: Fright now the Reds
could walk to Frances westernmost Atlantic shore, but by the end OF
this year they would have to fight their way. By the end of 1854 we would
be able to throw them back"

Notes By Gill

WHEN WE SPENT the evening of
May % talking to a business man
turned purebred livestock breeder
we went away with feeling that
few men had more rapidly gained
the broad knowledge of the industry,
or had become a more enthusiastic
member of the registered beef cattle
fraternity. Archie Parkes, in but II
years, built up one of the great
breeding establishments in the west
ern states.
There was a lot of foresightedness
in all his efforts to improve his herd,
an ability to ask for and to use the

Bone1neaI Feeds
Approved

COMMISSIONER OF Agriculture
Alfred R. Anderson reports that all
manufacturers of mineral feeds reg
istered for sale in Montana have re-
piled to the QUESTIONABLE sent out
by the department of agriculture
asking for information as to source
of bonemeal used in their product
and assurance that it has been pro
cessed by methods approved by the
Y. S. bureau of animal industry to
insure complete sterilization and
eliminate all danger of transmittal
Of animal diseases.
The precaution was taken because
of reported outbreaks of anthrax in
several sections of the country at
tributed to imported bonemeal from
Europe, that had not been properly
sterilized.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1952-06-15
Wool Contracts
At 65 Gents

PRICES EDGED slightly higher in
wool contracts reported recently by
the First National Bank of Great
Falls. Highest price listed was 65
cents paid for $500 fleeces from the
Cascade area and 5000 fleeces from
the Great Falls area.
Other transactions reported:
Chinook area, $500 fleeces at 621s
cents; Pendroy area, 1900 fleeces at
81 cents and 1,4OO fleeces at 81 cents;
Cut Bank area, 1880 fleeces at so
cents; Great Falls area, 2, 100 fleeces
at SIS cents, and Fairfield area, 1000
fleeces at SIS cents.
The bank reported two contracts
for calves for fall delivery. Both
were in the Bynun area. One was
for IS mixed Hereford calves at 80
cents and the other was for 100
mixed Hereford calves at 90 cents
for the heifers and 81 cents for the
steers.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1952-06-15

about the same. Lard production in
1851 was 2S3, 100000 pounds above
the year earlier, although the lard
yield per 100 pounds of live weight
remained about the same, 1873.
The labor situation on farms and
ranches becomes critical about this
time of year. While owners generally
admit that in some cases men can be
found, most say that transient lab
orers are inexperienced, not inter-
ested in work, but that many of them
are experienced in the ways and
means of securing everything but
water for drinking purposes. If the
situation was bad last season, it Is
likely to be worse this summer.

plenty. of opportunity to get start.
In the last decade there have been
few times when there was not cry
ing need for men with experience
in this work. You. would need little
else other than genuine willing
ness to learn And there are plenty
of opportunities to learn under the
tutelage of some Of the top men in
the business.

The product of his breeding pro-
gram came near setting a standard
of excellence, but more than that, his
example was an inspiration to others,
the young and the old alike. When
Archie Parkes died on the. morning
of June 2 he left a monument behind
that viii be on the beef industry's
horizon for long time to come. We
can only thank him for the lift he
gave US as he went along his way.
And just as this is written, word
comes of the death of w. H. Hoover,
owner Of Willow Creek ranch and
president of Anaconda Copper Min
ing Co. His was life that led him
from a law practice in Great Falls to
renown as one of the best attorneys
in the nation, to the head of possibly
the largest industrial concern in the
nation. Many Of US in the livestock
industry did not know his lawyer,
his banker, his industrial side. We
could only watch in silent apprecia-
ton his meteoric rise to the head of
an industrial empire.
We knew Harold Hoover as a cat
tleman. We appreciated his talents
and abilities as such. AS with any
good cattleman, we have seen him
ride his cow herd and identify and
recite the history of every cow and
her calf down the line, and we have
seen by his words and his actions that
he. not only knew his own COW herd
but the management and problems of
the industry as well All this when
he found it possible to spend but a
month at most each summer at Will
low Creek. His love for livestock
carried over into his relations with
people His friendliness was genuine.
He was equally at home in the COM
pany of hay hand at the ranch or
an ambassador in Chile. Montana's
fields of agriculture, of law, Of COM
merce and of industry have lost one
of the top leaders of our time.
