Burning Permits
Nece During
Fire Season

Notice of Montana's fire season
with dates extending from May
l to September 81, and the ne
cessity for obtaining a burning
permit during the closed period
we're pointed out in a reminder
issued by the Office of Montana
State Forester in Missoula.
State Forester Gareth c. Moon,
states, during the peak of the
season burning permits will be
issued only at the discretion of
the protective agencies. For this
reason the public is warned that
any violation of the fire laws of
Montana will be investigated and
strictly enforced"
Permits may be obtained from
the U. S. Forest Service District
Ranger offices, private fire pro-
lection agencies, fire wardens,
and sheriff's offices under the
rural fire protection districts.
During the last five years."
Moon said, 1--WE have had a total
OF 1888 reported forest fires and
nearly fifty percent of these re-
from human carelessness
fire. OF the total 673 fall

,ategories."

STRUGGLE IN A r

A struggle for control is now
in progress in the Democratic
Party, and the outcome of this
maneuvering may well determine
the chances of the party in the
1860 presidential election. In
brief, the fight is between the left
wing element and the moderates
and conservatives.
The moderates and conserva-
tives are in control on Capitol
Hill and there Senate Majority
Leader Lyndon johnson and
House Speaker Sam Rayburn are
carrying on a budget-cutting Of
fensive with the intention of cut
ting taxes, if possible, at this ses-
sion of Congress.
However, it was noted that in
the recent $100-a-plate dinner held
in Washington for top Democrats
"a dinner which was not a SELL
out), neither former President
Harry Truman nor former Presi-
Dental candidate Adlai Stevenson
centered their main attack on the
big budget. Other Democrats have
done SO, and these include Senator
Harry F. Byrd, of Virginia, the
Majority Leader of the Senate,
Speaker Sam Rayburn and many
others.
On the contrary, former Presi-
dent Truman said he was not sure
the Eisenhower budget was too
big and that he thought the econ
omy could stand spending on the
scale asked by Eisenhower-$71.8
billion. Adlai Stevenson warned
that if the Democrats tried to out
Republican the Republicans on
the budget-cutting issue it would
harm the Democratic party in the
run.
1t is widely rumored that Ma
tional Committee chairman Paul
Butler will be replaced later this
year and a battle between conser-

HANS j. LARSEN
WRITES FROM DENMARK

The following letter will be
of interest to old timers who
will remember Mr.. Larson as an
early day partner of Nick Hansen
in the Valley Meat Market in
Sidney, and later manager of a
market at Savage in which they
were partners.
When Mr.. Larsen first came
to the United States he located at
Dillon, but after his return to
Denmark and his marriage there
he came back to this country and
the family made their home in
Sidney. After about ten years of
residence here they returned with
their son and daughter to their
native land to resume their resi-
dence. Their son died there dur
ing his young manhood and the
and her family are in
where her parents are
now living in retirement.

TROUBLE IN RED CHINA?

Red China has admitted that ii
is encountering some economic dis
tress. This is important when con-
sidered as part of the information
al picture, because it lessons the
strength of the Communist bloc
and may enhance the chances for
peace in the immediate future.
1t is known that Red China has
been concentrating most of its
economic effort on the develop
ment of heavy industry. However,
the concentration has gone on at
such a pace that the Chinese have
recently found it difficult to main
tain an ample supply of food for
domestic consumption and for ex-
port.
AS a result, Peiping is looking
to Moscow for a broad new aid
program, and the Communist Chi
nese government has admitted ov-
er-investment in heavy industry,
has recently raised food and con-
sumner prices, and fired its Com
merce minister.
The Russians, on the contrary,
nave reduced the prices OF some
foods and consumer articles re-
Gently and are attempting to pla-
cate the Russian people-fearful
that what has happened in Hun
gary might happen in other places.
If the comfort and needs of the
people are not considered to some
extent.
1t is questionable whether Rus
STA is in a position right now to
give large scale aid to China, and
if they do not come up with a
satisfactory aid program, the Chi
nese could become slightly disil-
lusioned with the leadership from
Moscow.
While this is a Slight chance,
the major significant news involv-
ed is the fact that the Chinese
Communists are encountering eco
nomic difficulties. Such a situa-
ton in China certainly reduces
the prospect that China will pro-
yoke an immediate crisis, which
Gould cause a war in Asia.
The Sidney herald., 1957-05-16

natives and moderates and the
progressives is expected to re-
volve around his replacement. AS
with the issue of budget-cutting,
1t is to be assumed that Truman
and Stevenson, and others, will
be on the side of a Fair Deal
Democrat, while the conservatives
and moderates will be in favor of
a more moderate candidate for the
National Committee craftsmanship.
Therefore, the Democratic Par
ty is now experiencing and will
experience a struggle within its
confines concerning its National
Committee leadership, the Party's
line of attack on the Republican
Administration at present, and
other issues. 1t is a fateful fight
and one which has split the Dem
ocratic Party into two camps and
may go a long way toward estab-
fishing the chances of the Party
in the 1860 election.
The Sidney herald., 1957-05-16

fore serve a good purpose. They
also say that even if those receiv-
ing gifts from accumulated stamps
do nothing else, they get these pro-
ducts at a price very close to cost.
In our opinion, the case for or
against trading stamps depends
upon the circumstances which ex-
ist in the various areas. No doubt
there are stamp outfits which are
not as reliable as others, and
which the country would do well
to be rid of. On the other hand,
there are reputable trading stamp
organizations, and one would hes
itate to eliminate these organiza-
tons from the business scene.
In the end, however, trading
organizations may have to
submit to some special taxation.
1t seems that this would be prefer
able to taxing stores which give
trading stamps.

AN UNDERWATER
WARNING LINE

1t is reported that the Navy is
now constructing an underwater
warning line, somewhat similar tc
the now famous DEW Line, which
is intended to warn the United
States of the approach of enemy
planes from the North.
The novel feature of the latest
report is that no such underwater
warning system has ever been de-
veloped, nor was the possibility
of such a line taken seriously I'M
til only recently. The report con-
corning construction of the line,
supposedly now underway, or in
the advanced planning stage cred
its highly advanced sonar devices,
arranged in a line on the floor of
the ocean, as comprising the pri-
mary element of the underwater
warning line. The warning system
is supposed to detect the presence
of enemy submarines.
Anyone familiar with the his
tory of anti-submarine operations
in World War II will realize that
if the report is true, sonar devel-
opment has made giant strides
forward since 1945. Had Unit
ed States enjoyed the benefits of
such an underwater warning line
during World War III, the mass
acre of its shipping in 1912 could
have been greatly lessened.
In those days, German U-boats,
taking advantage of skinny and
unorganized coastal defenses, were
both brazen and bold and often
attacked ships while surfaced to
ave torpedoes. So feeble was the
u. S. defense that only a handful
of submarines was sunk in the
first six months of the war, de-
spite the fact that the German
U-boats we're sending a record
tonnage to the bottom of the sea
in the spring and summer of 1912.
If the underwater warning line
is top secret, as one report has
it, we are sorry the secret has
leaked out. However, if such a
line is possible, the defense from
Russian submarines - some of
which are said to be designed to
carry ballistic missiles - will be
greatly strengthened.

FARM PRICES

The Department of Agriculture
recently revealed that prices re-
ceived by farmers increased two
percent during the month ending
April 18th. While this is slightly
encouraging, it is offset somewhat
by a further rise in prices paid
by farmers, which moved up ap-
proximately one percent.

THE STAMP CONTROVERSY

Several states have taken, or
are now taking action to levy rel
atively heavy taxes on places of
business which give trading
stamps. In some states it is charg-
ed that the trading stamp bust
ness is more of a racket than any,
thing else, and thus the action
taken against stores who use trad
ing stamps.
In this controversy, as in all of
them, a great cry has been raised
by those opposed to these taxes.
And, it is fair to report, some
state legislatures have refused to
levy taxes on places of business
using trading stamps.
The contention of those opposed
to the use of trading stamps is
that the customer pays for the
he receives, eventually, in
one way or another, and that there
is no such thing as something for
nothing. Defenders of the system
claim that the trading stamps en-

conditions now in comparison with
those of a year ago, il will be
found that the increase in farm
product prices has failed to keep
pace with the rise in prices of
commodities and services bought
by farmers in the last IL months.
Therefore, the April 18th par
ity ratio was 81, and although
this is one percent better than the
March ratio, it is two percent low
er than the ratio of April is, 1856.
1t is hard to tell what the two
percent rise in farm prices means,
and farmers will have to wait IN
til later in May to e if this is a
trend which will continue.
The only mildly encouraging
part of the story is the fact that
have moved up rather well
since mid-February - a little fast
pr than prices paid, though prices
paid continued to move up also.
AS a whole, the outlook is still
depressing for the farmer.
