Durant Man Speaks Ia
Lexington Rofarians
Buster Reed Describes
Ins And Outs Of The !.
Business To Group

An interesting picture of thu
broiler chicken business wa.
given to Lexington Rotarians
tuesday by c. B. Buster" Read
well known young business man
OF Durant and Holmes County.
Mr.. Read, who has been in the
chicken industry for several
years, was introduced by Presi-
dent A. P. Carroll in the absence
OF program chairman, Allan Ram
sey, who is a patient in the
Holmes hospital.
AT the present time Mr.. Read
has about $4,000 chickens at his
farm on highway IL near Durant
They are housed in the latest
type buildings and raised scienti-
fcally.
One square foot of space per
chicken is recommended, Mr..
Read said, but he uses about
three-fourths of foot per chick
en-.
One important hazard in the
chicken business, he said, was
that when the chickens are ready
they have to be sold, regardless
OF price. The chickens are either
gaming or losing and they are
eating all the time, he said.
By-products valuable in his
business include fertilizer and
feed sacks.
Mr.. Read said that he believed
the chicken market would con-
tlnue to be good in spite of fall
ing beef prices.
Mississippi producers are at a
disadvantage with there compe-
tition from surrounding states
because they must pay the sales
tax on all their feed-and have
to sell on the same market as
their competition, he said.
The Magnolia state does not
grow enough chickens to supply
its own needs and many chickens
have to be imported. He spoke
OF Georgia as being one of the
foremost states in the broiler in
dustry.
Mr.. Reads discussion proved
to be OF great interest to a large
attendance.
Visitors included Julian Kerr
guest OF Gordon Carter; Bobby
Berman, guest of Joe Berman:
Charlie Strahan, guest of w. H.
Fincher, Jr.; H. H. Thomas, Lex
ington, and w. L. Thomas of
Minneapolis, Minnesota, guests of

That thin margin of victor,
obtained by pro-American Al
eide de Gasperi. Italy's pre-
mier, points out again the fol
ly of our dollar diplomacy.
In l948 we expressed doub
on the wisdom of the Mar,
shall Plan--saying that we
could never buy friendship
with dollars. That doubt ha:
been steadily growing in GU,
mind since that time-anc
the general public seems now
to be coming to the same con,
clusion.
In very short time we may
be referring to the Marshall
Peril, rather than the Marshall
Plan-after we have wasted
enough of our substance a,
broad to have made ourselves
strong at home. .-'
After giving away billions
Of dollars in Europe under the
Marshall Plan we are no bet
ter off than we were at the
beginning-in our opinion.
AS a matter of fact we were
better off at the end of the
war than we are now after
spending the billions. Then we
had friends, even if they were
of doubtful nature.
Today these friends are
openly antagonistic to US
calling US capitalistic war
mongers.
AS far as the military OBJ
jectives in Europe are con-
cerned all we have for our
aid is military force capable
only of a holding or delaying
action-and that holding or
delaying would be only until a
sizeable American force cross
ed the Atlantic. Don't make
any mistake on this.
We have steadily maintain
ed since 1913 that if America
is ever foolish enough to get
in q war with Russia she will
have to 60 it alone-she will
get little aid from Europe
and that small amount is
steadily diminishing.
The only nation we can
count on to be opposed to Rus
STA and fight with us is Eng
land---and because of her criti-
cal situation she would be of
little help.
AS we see it the only hope
for the survival of this country
IS making ourselves strong, in
a military sense and econo'
mically. One is as important
rs the other.
We have had a taste OF fight
ins Russia in Korea.

he war without firing a shot

The Rosenbergs, notorious
atomic spies, are scheduled to
die tonight.
We hope nothing interferes
with the slated execution.
Reports of the demonstra-
tons around the White House
on behalf of the convicted trail
tors are bad enough--but the
reports from Paris are enough
to make ones blood boil.
1t seems that thousands of
European citizens, particular
ly in France, do not believe we
should execute the Rosenbergs
that instead we should COM
mute their sentences to life
imprisonment-all for the pur-
pose Of showing the world
that the great Democracies
temper justice with mercy.
Many of these citizens are
supposed to be enemies of
Communism.
We should like very much
to tell every single one of
them where to go--and it
would be much hotter than
Holmes county at the moment.
The Rosenbergs have al
ready received more mercy
than they deserve. They have
had the benefit of legal coun-
sci and their case has been re-
viewed again and again by the
courts. Had they been citizens
of Russia, the homeland of
the cause they seek to uphold,
they would have been shot
over two years ago.
The only force in the world
the Communists respect is
force.
This applies to the Commu.
nists in America as well as the
remainder OF the world.
Our only hope is to execute
the Rosenbergs and show the
world that America has cha
racter enough to finally do
what Should have heen done
1t is our only protection for
the future.
