Gone to the Gamers
Years ago the bands of cayuse horses
that roamed the ranges were the back
bone of Montana's cattle industry.
Many old timers will tell you that the
ruggedness sDd stamina of these mus
tangs has never been equaled. But they.
and the teams of draft horses that were
turned out to pasture when tractors
came into common use, have gone to
the Gamers
On the surface it would seem that the
horse no longer exists as beast of
burden and has become just pleasure
animal used by saddle clubs and kept
around by horse fanciers. But as long
as beef remains favorite on the Amer
ican dinner table, the horse win have
an indispensable job to perform.

he said, ''You can't run cow outfit

vast majority of his Senate col

President of the United States
Senator Kefauver'S unpopular.
ity with fellow politicians is q
striking phenomenon of the
Washington scene. To q con-
temptuous Truman the liberal
Tennesseean. until recently. was
Senator Cow-fever." Among
fellow Senator's only Senator
Mccarthy is more generally dis
liked and even Senator Nc.
Carthy has a handful of rabid
Senate supporters that Senator
kefauver lacks.
Ambitious Lone Wolf
Reason for the antipathy Is
that Senator Kefauver is an am
bilious lone wolf who won the
"Old Ironsides" label as a Uni
versity of Tennessee football
tackle and has. ever since, been
charging head-down through all
who stood in front of him.
Senator Kefauver embarked on
his solitary way the day he ar
rived in Washington in 1896 as q
House member. The rule that
freshmen in Congress stay un-
heard and listen to their elders
was not for him. Almost before
ne had mastered the corridor

In headlong battle with Senator
Kenneth Mcclellan. the dignified
senior Democrat from his own
state who had come to Congress
In 1911. when Senator Kefauver
was entering the third grade.

his six House terms the young
Tennesseean was reforming the
whole legislative process with q
book twentieth Century Con-
gress) that warned his elders
an angry public might some day
junk Congress If it didn't reform
on the Keafuver pattern. He
recommended electric vote tabu-
lators. abolition Of the seniority
system and opening of con-
gressional debate to members
OF the Presidents cabinet.
Book Riled Veterans
The book and the Senator's
refreshing free-wheeling helped
win the Tennesseean a news
correspondents accolade as an
outstanding member" Of Con-
gress in 1916. But the book
burned Washington veterans
whose temperatures have been
rising ever since.
His unortfodoxy cost Senator
Kefauver the support Of Harry
Truman. whose basic views he
represents probably as well as
any other Democratic hopeful.
BY midsummer of 1852 the then
President was telling almost
everyone he met that only q
real threat that Senator Kefau-
yer would take his place could
have persuaded him to seek
another White House term.
The way he ran the teleyised
crime hearings that made" him
nationally was the original basis

nifty. Normally a Senator, fol-
lowing the unwritten rules Of
the legislative club, does not un-
necessarily hurt fellow Senators.
Senator Kefauver, pursuing
syndicated crime in 1850, ignored
what his tar brush was doing
even to other Democratic Sena-
tors and how close it came to
the President himself.
Senator Scott Lucas. the ma
jority leader. was up for re-
election when Senator Kefauver
scheduled public hearings in Il
