Walter Starts Storm
By Fiery Defense
|0f McCarran Act
By Robert K. Walsh

The McCarran-Walter immi-
grafton law. less than a month
in operation. today was the
center of a congressional storm
aroused by a critical message
from the White House and an
outspoken defense by Repre-
sentative Walter.
Mr.. Walter. Democrat, of
Pennsylvania brought on the
fiery exchanges. In a min
ute speech on the House floor
yesterday he asserted that many
professionals. professional Jews,
are shedding crocodile tears for
no reason whatsoever"
He addressed the House soon
after it received from the White
House the recent report of a
presidential commission urging
that the McCarran-Walter Act
be rewritten from beginning to
end. President Truman urged
Congress to give early consid-
Grafton to the commissions pro-
posals to overhaul the new law,
abolish the national origins
quota system, and admit 10000
additional aliens annually.
Mr.. Walter charged that the
commission was set up 'for the
purpose of discrediting the law"
He denied that the law. passed
over the Presidents veto last
year, was "anti-anything" or
Disseminated against any one.
He advised the House not to be
"stampeded by heavy pressure.
Representative Javits, Repub-
lican, of New York took issue
with Mr.. Walter, especially on
the reference to professional
Jews" The New York member
noted that Gen. Eisenhower and
Gov. Stevenson suggested revi-
sion Of the law, and that nu-
merous Protestant and Catholic
leaders also favored major
changes in the statute.
Mr.. Walter referred to COM
plants that some 270 crew mem
bers Of the French liner Liberte
were refused shore leave in New
York at Christmas because they
refused to answer questions
about their backgrounds. Mr..
Walter asserted that an investi-
cation indicated that "a finer
crew Of throat-slitters couldn't
be found anywhere"
Two other House members
discussed the law in brief
speeches. Representative Celler,
Democrat, of New York urged
adoption Of the commission's S
proposals. Representative Hoff-
man, Republican, of Michigan
protested and asked where
some people get the idea that
people in other countries have
the right to come to this coun-
try"

The report. made public by

defense, non-military protection
of industrial facilities, and for
keeping essential Government
functions going in case of attack.
Asserting that realistic pre-
paredness in the atomic age" is
the basic deterrent to war, the
board said 1--WE must have in be-
ing sufficient retaliatory and de-
fense capabilities to meet an ag-
gressor successfully at any time
he might choose to strike"
Lists Seven Proposals.
It listed these seven "basic
recommendations:
/. Full use on a high priority
basis Of scientific developments"
to make continental defense
more effective.
2. Vigorous continuance of
programs developed by NSRB
aimed to make cities less vul-
nerable to disaster in the event
Of attack.
3. Increased emphasis on i'm
proving methods for determin-
ing more rapidly "the impact of
new weapons" on strategic plans
and on mobilization require
ments for materials, facilities
and manpower.

Pasture Finishing
Less Labor, Less Feed, More Gains
Add Up to More Income per Acre
By BILL STELLMON, Roping Reporter

IRRIGATED PASTURE is making
possible an almost complete switch
in the livestock-feeding program
carried on by Frank and John Over
cast, Blaine County Patterson part
ners. For years the Overcasts fat
tened out coming 2-year-olds in
drylot. Now they are changing
over to yearling basis, and putting
the finish on with irrigated pasture
plus supplemented grain.
These Milk River valley farmers
first tried their pasture program in
1851. Keeping their best heifer
calves for requirements and their
best steers for fattening as 2-year-
olds, they cut back Is head, 5 steers
and 10 heifers, for the irrigated
pasture trial.
The calves were wintered to keep
in good condition, fulfilled in drylot
through April while the pasture was
greening up and then put on irri-
gated pasture May l. Their regular
concentrate mixture was made
available.
Results Good
Results were good. When the Is
head were sold off pasture the third
week in July, steers averaged 1,05O
pounds and heifers, 812. Most had
reached a choice slaughter grade.
And the pasture had replaced all
drylot roughages plus about third
of the concentrate.
Last year, the Overcasts tried the
same program, this time using 26
head of similar stock: Small heifers
and off-color, cut-back steers. De-
spite the Milk River flood which
ruined about half the irrigated pas
ture and washed out the month OF
full-feed on drylot, the group did
well, averaging nearly 900 pounds
when sold in late July.
That convinced the partners and
they began arranging their 100 ir.
rigated acres on rotation program
which would keep Is acres in ir.
rigated pasture, about 80 in alfalfa
and the remainder in small grains
They figure to fatten all their year
ling steers on the pasture, once i
is developed. And they're dropping
winter fattening completely.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1953-05-15

What do the Overcasts like about
this program? Less labor, less ex-
pensive feeds, high gain efficiency
these add up to more income per
acre by fattening on irrigated pas
ture. But there are other advan-
tages, John points out.
Marketing is timely he says.
''These cattle are ready at a time
when fed cattle are relatively scarce.
Prices are good and even our off
color steers have sold without dis
count. And we also think summer
feeding on irrigated pasture takes
good adv ant age of the young
animals natural growth.
''Then, there's another gain for
u.s. John adds. eff we fatten the
yearlings, they aren't running on
our dryland summer range. So we
can build up our breeding herd.
And we are-to about 1875 head of
Hereford cows"
100 Head on Is Acres
Huntley mixture has worked well
in the Overcasts' irrigated pasture
program. They seed with a nurse
crop and delay grazing until the
grass has been established a year.
Then they rotate grazing regularly.
From previous experience, they feel
the 25 acres will handle about 100
head and still make enough growth
after the fed cattle are sold to pro-
vide late-summer hay crop and
some winter grazing for stock cows
as well.
Gains of steers on the irrigated
pasture have been about 21a pounds
a day, the Overcasts estimate. And
they think much OF the credit goes
to the month of full feed on drylot
which the animals get before pastur-
ing starts.
Home Grown Grains
Home grown grains are used COM
pletely by the Overcasts in thei1
feeding program. In winter, calves
are kept in good condition on {
ration of alfalfa, ground oats anc
barley and dried beet pulp, if avail
able. 1t wasn't this year, so the
Overcasts substituted a conditionel
pellet containing molasses, bran
mill feed, vitamins and minerals

sity-Bellevue Medical Center in

the monthly scientific journal of

DR.. Rush is Director and DR.. Ben

This concept is the basis of the
extensive cardiac employment and

Phoenix To Observe
National Posture

DR.. James A. Dolce, Director of
the Phoenx Public Health Depart
ment, announces that Phoenix will
join with thousands of other COM
munities across the nation in the
observance of National Posture
Week, October 12-17, as designated
by the Samuel Highly Camp Insti-
tute for Better Posture, founded
by the late S. H. Camp of Jacksol,
Michigan. In emphasizing the i'm
portance of National Posture
Week, DR.. Dolce points out that
good posture is the starting point
of good health and good appear
ance, and the attainment of good
posture is fairly simple You only
have to follow these few simple
rules:
81 Hold your head high with
your chin in. 2. Pull your should
ers back; shoulder blades should be
flat. 8. Raise your chest up and
toward. 4. Draw your abdomen up
and in. 5. Flatten your lower back.
6. Tip your hips down in back T.
Hold your knees straight but not
stiff. 8. Put your feet parallel, with
the weight evenly balanced. Do
not exaggerate. Good posture can
be obtained without stiffness or
strain. If you observe these basic
rules while standing, walking and
sitting, you will be rewarded by a
greater feeling of well-being and
health.
"Most of us Americans DR..
Dolce continued, "are noted for our
casualness and our intense desire
for comfortable living. Our whole
mode of living is built around what
might be called 'easy-goingness.' II
is reflected in our general manner
and in our style of dress.
Unfortunately, however, many
Americans seem to feel that
slouchy posture is the most com.
Portable posture. Most of us are
guilty of pretzel-like posture while
sitting and reading the evening
paper, the sloppy position in which
we hold our bodies while engaging
in conversation with friends OF
business acquaintances, or the hair.
pin like attitudes while playing
bridge. In a vain attempt to be
more comfortable in our daily acti-
vities we completely forget that
the true secret of good posture is
to keep our bodies well-balanced
throughout busy day.
