Seven Bomb Blasts
Shake Buenos Aires
While Peron Speaks
By the Assoeioted Press

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina,
May 1.-Seven bomb explosions
shook Buenos Aires this May Day
morning. The seventh occurred
while President Juan D. Peron
was addressing the opening Of
the 87th Argentine Congress and
could be heard clearly in the
chamber.
All the bombs were set off in
small public parks, where dam
age was unlikely. The first blast
occurred shortly after midnight
and the others came at intervals
after that.
Blasts at u. S. Indirectly.
Police were spaced about 10
yards apart along both sides Of
the streets over which Gen. Peron
rode from his residence to Con-
gress for his annual state-of-the-
nation address. He made no
reference to the explosions. but
began his speech by hotly as
sailing his enemies, whom he
linked to imperialist forces
abroad. He did not identify
these forces, but listeners got
the idea he meant the United
States.
He said tales of supposed
Argentine economic crisis had
been invented and spread abroad
by the Associated Press and the
United Press. At another point
he spoke derisively about the
Christian Science Monitor, which
has criticized his regime.
Gen. Peron told Congress there
was an organized campaign to
prevent the economic unity of
South America which started
with his visit to Chile in Febru-
airy. He said imperialist forces,
presumably meaning the United
States, want these countries to
get behind them for war.
Assets Statement Asked.
This capital city has been SEN
sitive about bomb explosions
since the incidents Of April Is,
when two blasts in packed Plaza
del Mayo killed six persons and
injured nearly 100 and set of a
night of burning in which four
opposition party headquarters
and the Jockey Club were ruined
by Peronista partisans. About
80 leaders Of the opposition rad
ical and socialist parties have
been arrested since.
Yesterday, in step to wipe
out graft in Argentina, the Pres
ident ordered all public officials
and army officers to submit
sworn statements of their assets
within so days.
A presidential decree threat
ened those failing to turn in the
statements with dismissal. The
information, the decree said,
would be kept in sealed envelopes
unless needed for graft investi-
cations.
The decree added that any
person could prefer graft charges
against any official if evidence
was offered with the charge.

and other farm wastes. The new

be cheaper than urea, another SUBJ

TESTING A METHOD of cooling
stored grain by pulling cool air
through the grain into 6-inch, per-
forated pipe. The pipe, about feet
long, is inserted into the grain after
the bin is filled. An electric fan in
the pipe draws air through the grain
and out. Grain, especially if it is
somewhat moist, tends to heat in
the bottom and center of bin.
Moisture then rises to the top, caus-
ing pockets of spo;lage. Some of bins
tested had grain temperatures of go
to 100 degrees during late summer,
but after about four weeks of ven
tilation grain at the center and up
per surfaces of the bins in all cases
was cool.
INJECTING PIGS with antibiotics
to speed growth. Swine producers
have long known that antibiotics
help produce healthy, fast growing
pigs but how to get the antibiotics
into the pigs has been a question.
Sows can't be fed enough to add
effective amounts to their milk. Spe-
cia1 pig starters and synthetic milks
don't always work we'll in an aver

that injecting or implanting an anti

Montanan Is Youngest Member
OF National Advisory Group
By BILL STELLMON, Ropimg Reporter

ONE important group helping to
shape this nations future farm pro-
gram is President Eisenhower's Ma
tional Agricultural Advisory Com
mission
Made up of farmers, educators,
processors-a representative cross
section of people in all phases of ag-
riculture, the commission is perma-
nent body set up to advise USDA on
long range farm policy and its adj
ministration.
One of its members, and the
youngest, is 36-year-old Montana
rancher Sterling J. Swigart.
A Richland County operator, Swi-
CART was appointed to the commits
sion in September. Since then, he's
alternated regular ranch chores with
three and four-day trips to Wash
ington, D. c., where he takes part in
commission meetings each month.
Appointment Surprise
That he was named to the COM
mission still surprises SWigart.
Though he's always been active in
community agricultural affairs, none
of his activities has been unusual
At present, he's soil conservation
district supervisor and a PIMA COM
munity committeeman. And a con-
tinuing supporter of All work. Both
he and his wife are club leaders and
their 10-year-old daughter, oldest of
three children, is now in her first
year of All work.
Nor is he big-scale rancher. His
2,100-acre place lies in one of Rich
land County's dry1and areas,
8-Decenber |, 1853
Montana farmer-stockman., 1953-12-01

squeezed between the Yellowstone
River breaks and the North Dakota
border. Swigert began operating it
in 1941 when, near the end of his
second year at Montana State Col
lege, both his parents were killed in
a train wreck. Except for 375 acres
farmed, all the land is native range
used by his so head of registered
Herefords. Swigert raises wheat and
feed grains on about half the crop
land each year, summerfallows the
rest.
1t is ranch typical of the area
and, as Swigert says, of "a small OPP
orator trying to make a go of things"
Working Operators
But size had little to do with the
commission appointment. Of the 16
members appointed so far-two spots
on the 18-man board are yet to be
filled-10, including Swigart, are
working farmers and ranchers who
represent nearly every type of opera
ton. Four, including Swigert, are
Westerners; other sections are
equally represented.
Had Eyes Opened
give had my eyes opened to a lot
of things I'd given little thought to
before" he says. Foreign markets,
crops we aren't concerned with out
here, little details of the overall
agricultural picture. All the prob
lens are pretty much interdepend-
ent, I've found"
Swigart smiles as he remembers
the first meeting he attended. Il re-
ceived notice of my appointment

SHARP DISAPPROVAL of fea-
lures of the present plan for reorgan-
ization of the Soil Conservation Serv-
ice was expressed by speakers on the
program and by resolutions adopted
by the Montana Association of Soil
Conservation Districts at the annual
convention held in Great Falls, Nov.
1919.
Feature of the plan most directly
affecting Montana is the reduction
of the number of area soil conserva-
tionists from seven to four. OPPOSE
ton to this reduction was vigorously
voiced in a resolution adopted by the
association. 1t was pointed out that
the reduction was made arbitrarily
on the basis of population without re-
gard to the large areas in Montana.
Speakers declared that Montana ac-
tually needs more, not fewer area
Montana farmer-stockman., 1953-12-01

Sept. 1 and the meeting started Sept.
81 he says. 81 had no briefing, no
idea of what the work involved. So
/ just sat and listened"
Now, though, he finds himself
more at ease.
Meetings Informal
''The discussions are open, friendly
and frank. The meetings are very
informal" he says. "We are always
free to interject any thoughts we
have. And, most important, politics
never enter in. That's what I like
about it,

Urges Sos Expansion

Urges Sos Expansion
In his annual report President
Popham urged expansion of the state
soils conservation program and rec
commended that local soil conserva-
ton districts take the lead in show
ing national leaders the practices and
problems that are most important in
soil conservation. He summarized
major problems of the program in
Montana and stressed the need for
more specialists in the service, par
ticularly for a range management
specialist.
Don H. Robinson, Glacier Park
naturalist, presented an illustrated
talk on the park. He pointed out that
it is not only recreation area but
a mighty reservoir for feeding
streams on both sides of the CONT
mental divide.
o. Leon Anderson, Lewistown, re-
ported OH his visit to the national
convention in Omaha, and James
Krall, assistant at the Central Mon
tana Branch Experiment Station,
Moccasin, addressed the group at the
Thursday noon luncheon. Sterling
Swigert, Sidney, conservation dis
trict supervisor and Montana MEM
Der of President Eisenhower's agri-
culture advisory committee, reported
on actions of the committee to date.
District directors named for the
association are Robert A. Tomscheck,
Toole county; Pettyjohn; Conrad
GilbertSon, Kalispell; George Pitch,
Harlem; Fay Crusch, Bainville; Ray
Kimball, Hysham; Popham; John
Holzer, Judith Basin; William Lar
son, Glendive, and Harold Klumph,
Bozeman.
So far, farm policy needs of the
immediate future have claimed most
of the commissions attention, Swi-
CART adds. Work is aimed at out
lining a program which can be pre-
sented to congress in 1854. Most is
still in the development stage-and
commission members are not au-
thorized to review it freely-but two
concrete recommendations have been
made.
One is against livestock supports,
the second in favor of continuing the
present farm commodity support pro-
gram, but with gradual shift away
from high supports and government
controls.
Get Back 10 the Farm
"These are my views" Swigart
adds. Il think we have to get away
from government supports and con-
trolls and get back to the farm.
think gradual transition from the
present program into two-price
system would get us closer to thai
goal and still help answer many Of
the problems we have now. The
change must be slow enough to fore
stall economic hardship on the farm
but sure enough to get us back on
our own feet"
A livestock man himself, Swigar
feels livestock supports would b,
impractical. He points to two majo
difficulties in setting up any live
