5 Cows. Support
o-Slow Policy
OF Tax Reduction

SEATTLE, R- Four Republi-
can governors, and at least one
Democrat, swung behind Presi-
dent Eisenhower today in urging a
go-slow policy Of tax reduction.
A strong voice of opposition to
the go-slow policy came from
Gov. James Bracken Lee of Utah,
long an outspoken exponent of
lower taxes, who commented:
81 don't know how you can cut
spending unless you cut taxes"
Lee continued, in an interview,
that everyone agrees the budget
should be balanced but that a lot
of American people are getting
discouraged over continuing high
taxes"
The Democrat favoring the go
slow policy was Gov. Lawrence
Wetherby Of Kentucky.
The support formed as Eisen-
hover planned a flying trip here
tonight, after Sen. Taft's funeral,
to- attend his first national con-
ference of governors. He is sched-

Nations Leaders
Pay PartinggTribute
To Senator Taft

WASHINGTON, Up President
Eisenhower and other leaders Of
the nation paid a solemn parting
tribute to Sen. Robert A. Taft to-
day at a state funeral in the stone
rotunda of the national capitol.
There were words Of consola-
ton from the Scriptures and in
prayers Of Senate and House
chaplains. There was glowing
eulogy from Taft's Ohio colleague,
Sen. John w. Bricker: Gin him
were personified the noblest at
tributes of the Republic-rever-
ence of God and love of liberty"
For these services, the casket
and catafalque holding the body
Of the fallen senator-he died Of
cancer Friday in New York-were
moved to the west side of the TO
tunda. Yesterday, while thousands
of plain people paid their homage,
it had rested in the exact center
of the vast chamber beneath the
massive capitol dome.
Temporary chairs for 900 were
in place for the President and
Mrs. Eisenhower, members of the
Taft family, cabinet members,
Supreme Court justices, military
chiefs, diplomats and the entire

Hawaii Governor
Deplores Blocking
Of Statehood Bill

SEATTLE, R- Hawaii's Gov
King charged last night that the
move to consolidate the Hawaii
and Alaska statehood bills was an
effort to prevent the passage of
the Hawaii bill at this session of
Congress.
eve have every reason to be-
lieve' that if the measure were
brought out on the Senate floor
for a vote, it would pass" King
said.
The bill to admit Hawaii as the
49th state of the Union has passed
the House. It is now pending be
fore the Senate Committee on In
terror and Insular Affairs, where
by an 8 to Z vote, the Alaska
statehood bill was attached to it..
1T was very obviously an effort
to delay things and prevent the
measure from coming to vote in
the Senate by Sailing the commit
tee," King declared.
apparently it is the program
of the leadership of the Democrat
ic Party to insist that both Alas
ka and Hawaii be admitted at the
same time, or they used this
means of defeating both the state
hood bills"
King said the fight for state
hood would be continued, how
ever. He plans to introduce res
olution at the 45th annual gov
errors conference which he is at
tending here. It asks the govern
ors to recommend for the seventh
successive time that Congress
promptly enact legislation to ad-
NIT Hawaii.

Picture Stories In
National Publications
Will Boost Alaska

Interest in Alaskan travel will
be given a big boost this season
with the placement of several
picture stories in national publ
cations, according to information
received last week by the Alaska
Visitors Association.
Robert Halmi, internationally
famous photographer, who made
a trip through the territory at the
request of the association, has
written from New York that six
picture stories about the territory
have been placed with national
publications and that other edi-
tors are considering additional
coverage.
The photographer. requested that
editorial condolences be kept until
after publication but stated that
the stories covered areas from
Juneau to Nome and Point Hope
with one personality series in the
group.

ference has adopted resolution

More Gamma Globulin AS
Immunization Planned
For Expectant Mothers

JUNEAU, Up Doctors dipped
into emergency reserves Of gam
ma globulin Saturday to finish
this city's mass polio immuniza-
ton after being assured the stock
pile would be replaced.
1t became apparent Friday that
earlier estimates, based on the last
census, putting the child popula-
ton in the city at 1,740, were too
low. When the program ended,
1898 children had been innocu-
lated, handed a consoling 1ollipop
and sent on their way.
The Office of Civilian Health
promised 5000 centimeters of the
globulin to replace the reserve
supply used and advised that ex-
pectant mothers also be immu-
nized. This is scheduled to begin
Wednesday.

Debt Limit Action
Postponed As
Adjournment Near

WASHINGTON, R- Congress
drove toward mid-afternoon adj
journment today after White
House conference decided to post
pone action on raising the federal
debt limit until next year if pos
sib1e.
Acting Senate Leader Know
land R-Calif and Sen. Millikin
R-Colo9, chairman Of the Senate
Finance Committee, told news
men after a breakfast meeting
with President Eisenhower that
every effort would be made to
avoid a special session this fall to
act on the debt ceiling.
Eisenhower had proposed an
immediate SIS million dollar in
crease. The House voted approval
but the Senate Finance Commit
tee killed the measure Saturday.
Secretary Of Treasury Humph-
rey, who with Budget Director
Dodge sat in on the White House
meeting, said later the admins
tration will operate under the
present 275 billion dollar debt
limit for the remainder of the
year if it is at all possible.
Sen. Byrd D-Va later asserted
that if the debt limit is raised by
SIS billions it will keep on going
up.
'It will 60 to 200 billion, then it
will go to 300 billion and we will
60 straight over the brink to fin
ancial DISASTER" Byrd told the
Senate.
Byrd, a key member of the Fin
ance Committee, led last weeks
successful fight against the Eisen-
hover proposed debt ceiling in
crease.
He touched off a furry of de-
bate in the closing hours of the
Senate session by saying any in
crease was ian incentive to ex-
travagance."
Sen. Douglas D-IlD interviewed
with a statement that the govern
ment's cash balance is scattered
among $4,000 banks which pay
no interest on the federal deposits
'This amounts to a subsidy Of
$3.50 million dollars a year to the
banks Of this country" Douglas
said.

East Berlin Workers Clash With
Police In Protest Against Seizure
OF Western Food Gift Parcels

BERLIN, R-East Berlin's Red
radio reported fights in scores OF
Russian zone communities today
where police beat back people
protesting Communist ban on
travelling to West Berlin for free
food.
At Potsdam, said the radio,
group Of Communists "tried
to incite the population to revolt"
Rail stations in Eastern Ger
many were reported surrounded
by police to enforce the ban. Even
columns of bicyclists attempting
to ride to Berlin on the highways
were turned back.
The northwest German radio
broadcasting from the west said
workers retaliated with wide
spread strikes. Many workers at
the big Leuna synthetic fuel re-
finery at Merseburg did not show
up for the Sunday night shift, the
radio said, and protest strikes
crippled the big electro chemical
works at Bitterfeld and several
large plants at Jena, Madgeburg
and Erfurt. At numerous plants
day shifts started sit-downs, the
radio said.
The East Berlin radio said the
clash in Potsdam developed when
a band of $50 students from the
"Walter Ulbricht'' school for
training Red agitators marched
against "fascist agitators" and put
them to flight.
The broadcast said there were
numerous other clashes in other
places where East Germans re-
turning with their free food par
GELS were attacked and their food
cOn11ScaLeQ.
Thousands of hungry East Ber-
liners swarmed into West Berlin
to food stations. Most East Ger
mans were kept away by the
blockade, though a few slipped
through.
Many Of those who got to West
Berlin and received food parcels
were pounced on by police when
they returned to East Berlin, and
their packages confiscated. One
estimate said $4,000 parcels were
seized in "a hours.
The Communists used the stolen
food to open an laid station for
West Berlin unemployed" They
fired rockets which dropped prop
uganda leaflets in the American
sector inviting West Berlin
''needy" to come and get the food.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1953-04-15

MONTANA BEEFMEN have a
real opportunity to meet the grow
ing West Coast demand for good
grade, lightweight slaughter cattle.
Montanans are close to that market,
and those with adequate or surplus
grain supplies and good to excellent
pastures may be well set up to pro-
duce IS to 20-month-old steers or
heifers which are ready for the
butcher instead of being choice or
fancy feeder yearlings.
Producing this kind of cattle,
which we might call ''West Coast
Killers" will present some definite
change-overs for most state cattle
men.
This type operation probably isn't
indicated for any ranch without sur
plus grain or the possibilities of pro-
ducing this grain. In no instance
should it be attempted where a
shortage of feed for breeding ami
mails might result. It is not entirely
dependent upon irrigated pasture
but it is necessarily an intensive
production process and will require
first class 'cow sense" on the part of
the owner. Collecting the full value
of these slaughter cattle at selling
time may be difficult, at least in the
beginning.
mn D1.,x,J C4aarS Iasfar<
The production of ''West Coast
Killers simply means delivering
good grade slaughter steers or heif-
ers to the packer buyer, as long year
lings, in October, November or De-
cember. Good grade satisfies this
coast market and, with this age cat
tie, it is not too hard to achieve.
Live-weight limit is LOO pounds.
Most markets would even prefer a
top of 1000 pounds. The yield on
these cattle should be in the neigh
borhood of So per cent.
Any calves that are good and
growthy at weaving time can be fed
to meet this market.
Winter Well
In wintering this calf which will
become ''West Coast Killer" simply
do q. good job. This means the calf
should gain from half to one pound
a day all winter long. If hay quail
ity is excellent, the calf will do this
on hay alone, but usually 2 to 4
pounds of oats per day will be
needed. Four pounds is the practical
limit because, if calf eats too much
