McCurthyism

I was glad to read ClarkSon j. Beall's
letter in The Sunday Star on Nc
Carthy's book Americas Retreat From
Victory" It is good to learn that the
people are beginning to come to his de-
fense.
At present am reading the Senator's
book "McCarthyism" and for the first
time the confusing and contradictory
information gathered from newspapers
over the years is beginning to take
shape in my mind, and know what is
actually happening to our Government
and hence to our country.
If any one believes the insulting ad-
jectives hurled at Mccarthy, ask that
person to watch him for one day on TV.
No one could be more patient or gentle.
This all comes as a surprise to me,
and his revelations come as shock.
We owe him great deal-perhapS
the preservation Of our country.
B. C. Bien.
Clarkson j. Beall said that "every
grown American should read Senator
McCarthy's Americas Retreat From
Victory" I agree.
Unlike Mccarthy, I believe all books
on public affairs, regardless of how mis-
leading, false or vicious they may be,
should be available to Americans. Hence,
believe that McCarthys book should
be read, or at least rather thoroughly
looked over, by all of us. Most, of
course, will easily see it's cheap political
purpose, and its falseness, although
there will always be a few who cannot
spend the time necessary to check facts
OF who are unable to think through
phoney reasoning as quickly as the
majority.
No one who is seriously interested in
understanding McCarthyism can over
look "McCarthy-the Man, the Sena-
tor, the Ism," by Jack Anderson and
myself. We do not draw personal or
partisan conclusions. but present the
plain, unvarnished facts as we found
them. After reading our book, readers
can judge for themselves if Mccarthy
is more sinned against than SHINING,
as Mr.. Beall suggests.

Some of my neighbors, who otherwise
are most excellent persons, are thought
less of the rights of others in that they
cast all the debris from their weekly

where some of us work desperately
hard to keep our places, gutterways in

IN SPITE OF drouth, total pro-
duction of crops and livestock prod
ucts in 1853 will be close to the all
time peak. With heavy carryover
stocks, total available supplies have
a good chance to establish a new
high record. Domestic consumers
are more numerous and they have
greater buying power than ever
before, but the slide in foreign
markets continues. Agricultural ex-
ports in June, the latest month re-
ported, were lowest for the cores
ponding time since 1945.
CATTLE-Better grades are in
strong position for the next two or
three months. Nationally, the supply
has been tapering off, although sup
plies at Chicago and a few other
points continue quite heavy. Returns
from cattle fed around six months
appear to have turned slightly IA
vorable in July and were still bet
ter in August and September.
However, feedlot replacement
buying of heavy, fleshy feeders,
which was light in the money-los-
ing first half of the year, has con-
tinued lower than in 1852. Current
prices for choice cattle at Chicago
are about one-fifth below the Oc-
tober-January average last season,
so that they should be able to hold
this level for some time.
Prices for middle and lower
grades face the hurdle of a heavy
run as the grazing season comes
to close in the next month or two

The supply of stocker and feede

owners will be under increasin
pressure to sell before winter set

will encourage buying of replace

ten is poorer at that time and buyers
have less opportunity to use cheap
fall roughage.
HOGS-Prices will gradually
work lower until early winter. On
past experience, decline of So to
81 cwt. from the September level
should be expected. Producers have
been selling spring pigs early, as
average weights have been the light
est in years at some markets.
The price ratio to feed costs will
continue favorable. Selling at around
200-220 pounds on price rallies
seems best. 1t will pay to plan to
farrow large pig crop by early
March next year.
LAMBS-Prices are past their low
for this year but will be under
pressure from heavy supplies in
October. Prices worked higher from
September to December in three
postwar years and lower in the
other three. Conditions seem to IA
