his way Of saying it to pos
terity.
1t is now explained here
that a misunderstanding be-
tween Truman and his secre-
tary, Eugene Bailey, was re-
Sponsible for the incident.
When the two men were
in Milwaukee last month
they expressed admiration
for the Journal to its editors
and Truman said he would
like to put a copy in the
cornerstone of his library.
To a Journal reporter, they
also said they had not seen
the issue in which the news
paper had published an
exceptionally comprehensive
account of the life and times
of Mccarthy with editorial
comment.
The reporter forwarded
that issue to independence
and Bailey wrote the journal
it would be suitable for their
purpose. The Mccarthy edi-
torial concluded:
Future generations are
likely to find this period as
fantastic and as harmful to
the American spirit as the
Salem witch hunts, the post
Civil War reconstruction or
the Ku Klux Khan. McCar-
thy was not directly respon-
sible for the hysteria that
seemed to sweep the Nation,
but he was the man who
captured the imagination Of
those who were susceptible to
such an emotional appeal"
The former President COM
mented to Bailey that the
issue was IAN excellent his
torical roundup of an era
fortunately a short one"
Bailey assumed that ended
the matter and he included
it with the list Of contents
destined for the cornerstone.
Later, Bailey said, the
President and trustees de-
cided to include only local
newspapers. But in the

DAVID LAWRENCE

The biggest "phony" in
American politics-the idea
that. If you favor particular
racial or ethnic groups. you
win their votes in the next
election-is one Of the main
fallacies behind the so-called
civil rights controversy in
Congress.
Actually, every scientific
poll taken shows that the
Negro vote in the United
States follows the pattern
Of economic influence as it
usually affects other groups
Of comparable income.
Despite the attitude Of the
Southern Democrats, q heavy
majority of the Negroes in the
North cling to the Demo-
cratic Party. Even in the face
Of the Republican effort to
take credit for Chief Justice
Warren's leadership in for
mulating the desegregation
decision handed down in 1854
by the Supreme Court, the
Negro voters in the 1856
presidential election gave the
bulk of their support to the
Stevenson-Kefauver ticket.
Notwithstanding, also, all
the fanfare of Republican
spea kers who pointed to
President EisenhoWer's meas
ures in putting Indignation"
into effect in the schools of
the District of Columbia and
other acts and speeches on
his part between 1852 and
1855 avowedly opposing
segregation. the Negro voters

Elimination Of Radioactive Fon-out
Raises Question Of Test Detection

There is an aspect accom-
panying the abolition Of fall
out from atomic weapon
tests that has not, as far as
I know. been called to atten-
ton. If fall-out is eliminated

it is the radioactive particles
in the air released by ex-
plosions accompanying tests
that register that the test
has been made.
AS long as the tests them
selves, and by this means,
release information, q quite
small team Of international
inspectors could ascertain
violations. But without this
automatic, self-produced in
formation. how could any
team of inspectors know what
was going on?
In this country, or any
other open society, they
might know through volun-
teered information. Should
the Government of the
United States violate an inter-
national agreement of this
kind. a great many people
would certainly learn about
1t and raise a public outcry
that would reach far beyond
the United States. Nowhere
can tests be made without
some people knowing about
them, if only those engaged
in making them. In this
country they have all beeh
reported in advance and any
attempt to perform secretly
against an international
agreement would be politi-
cally impossible as long as we
remain an open, democratic
society with free speech and

The cheerful crowds were on

the mos striking aspects Of

year it is different; they can hold for their
price longer, at least on the lighter stock.
They will be tougher on shrink conditions.
More two-way cattle might be expected to
come off the range in shape to attract bids
from slaughtererS as well as short feeders.
With a glut of hay and ample feed grains
in the West, there will be more demand for
cattle to feed in western valleys.
Cali in all, this situation makes feeder
cattle relatively scarce in the markets Ask
ing prices are high and movements SO far
are slow Heavier cattle will mean smaller
feeding margins With little or nothing in
the way of price gains in sight for slaughter
cattle compared with last year, feeders face
pretty tight situation"
This analysis of the fall cattle situation
quite accurately reflects general conditions
in most parts of the Montana-Wyoming
range country. Our cattlemen are in a
better position to secure a good price for
their calves this fall than for several years.
It's good to have sellers market for
while.

Survival of the Family Farm

THERE HAS BEEN much discussion in
recent years as to whether the family farm
can survive these changing times. The day
has surely gone when a strong back, will
ing heart and a reasonable amount of COM
mon sense are the only ingredients neces-
Sary for success on the farm. Automation,
new technologies, tax complexities, credit
problems changing markets and keen COM
petition have greatly lessened the infalli-
bility of that time honored formula of sue
cess.
Brains are far more essential than Drawn
in modern agricultural operations. To get
the most out of his farm todays farmer not
only has to be industrious but he must
also be, to a considerable degree, me-
chanical engineer, a chemist, soil phySi-
ciSt and an accountant. 1t will also help
considerably if he knows something about
bacteriology, entomology and, Of course,
agronomy. If he is going into livestock
production, he should also have an under
standing of animal breeding and feeding,
livestock diseases and numerous other
things.
However trained and experienced he
may be in such fields of science, he can
hardly hope to be successful unless his farm
Montana farmer-stockman., 1957-10-01

or ranch is large enough and productive
enough to enable him to develop an eff
Client loW-coSt operation. With the train
ing young farmers receive on the farm and
at school and college, we have no doubt as
to the survival of the family farms that are
of sufficient size to be good economic units.
If son of the family is for some reason
unqualified or uninterested in continuing
with farming, there will always be some
other young fellow ready to take over from
the older generation if he can secure fl
nancial backing.
But the farm family that is in real trouble
is the one on the too-small farm. And gen.
orally speaking, the smaller the farm the
more trouble. No matter how hard working
and skilled a farmer may be he cannot
make a good living for his family on
farm that is too small to permit an economi-
cal, low-coSt operation. The situation of
the farmer on the too-Small farm is becom-
ing more difficult every year.
Some farmers on under-sized units have
worked out fairly satisfactory solution of
their problem by finding part-time employ
ment off the farm. Those who cannot find
such employment in the local community
and who can see no hope of enlarging their
Montana farmer-stockman., 1957-10-01

IT IS ALWAYS WORTHWHILE to "see
oursels as ithers see U.S." so Montana and
Wyoming cattlemen may be interested in
the following size-up of the western cattle
situation as reported by Tom Rackham,
formerly of Montana State College and now
a member of the staff of the Livestock De-
partment of Iowa State College.
Speaking of the western range country
''from the Canadian border into New Mex
leo and from the Continental Divide into
the Cornbelt," Rackham said, ''the grass is
long-herds were pared down in recent
years-and hay crops are exceptionally
heavy"
'Most ranchers could winter all the cattle
they've got. In any case, many will hold
back greater numbers of replacement stock
than usual to rebuild depleted herds. They
will be thinking about holding calves to sell
as yearlings, too. They'll keep cattle ear
marked for sale as long as they can, to
make weight.
"a year ago most ranchers had to sell.
They could not bargain convincingly. This

fairly protect American farm markets from
price depressing surpluses and (2) single
realistic parity definition that will more
clearly and closely relate farm product
prices with the price levels of other seq
ments Of the economy.
There was spirited discussion of prac-
tical approaches to a solution of the farm
price problem and at the close of the con-
ference there was general agreement that
there was ''wide unanimity' of thinking
among the representatives of the different
commodity groups represented Other meet
ingS will be held in the near future.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1957-10-01

farming units will probably be better off
in the long run if they give up their losing
battle and seek employment in industry.
Others with determination and a more
favorable opportunity to expand may be
able to develop larger farming units as
many have done in the past.
The long time future of the family farm
of adequate size is about as sure as anything
in this atomic age. But the days of the too
small farm are numbered. The ultimate
fate of the under-sized unit will be either
as the home of part-time farmer who Sc
cures additional income from industrial
employment, or as part of some expand
ing adjoining farm.

While livestock organization l e ders
fought hard for the bill authorizing a live
stock market deduction for support of meat
promotion and research to help increase
meat consumption, the bill was killed in
the House of Representatives shortly be-
fore Congress adjourned Principal reason
for its defeat was opposition from most of
the general farm organizations and the
USDA.
I'm this mixed up economy of ours, some
times its hard to tell just who is SubSidizing
whom. One farmer suggests that when a
producer sells his farm products at rs per
cent of parity he is subsidizing the con-
sumer to the extent of 25 per cent of the
real value.
Majority of Iowa farmers still like Presi-

program and distrust his Secretary of Agri-
culture, according to a recent poll con-

About One-third of the acres signed up in
the 1857 soil bank represented farmers re-
ceiving payments in excess of $4,000 The
new law putting $4,000 per farm ceiling
on payments is likely to discourage many
large operators from participating in the

farm he owns or operates.
