The additional acreage has been
apportiOned among sugar beet
producing counties Of the State,
DeScamps said, so that it may be
anocated to growers. County ASC
Committees will increase farm al
locations to producers who have
indicated they would like more
acreage than was allotted to them
from Montana's original ALLEGATION.
Deschamps pointed out that all
growers who have received 1860
proportionate share (sugar beet
allotment) notices III eligible to
request additional acreage which
may be available. Sources OF
such ALLEGATION include increases
(like the one just announced) and
releases of shares by producers
Requests for additional acreage
must be filed either with the
County ASC office or with the
sugar company fieldmen.
The increased ALLEGATION is
designed to make up in part for g
lower than anticipated yield from
the 1859 beet crop and provide
sufficient beet sugar to meet quots

Who Should Teach
Young Drivers?

Do you have a friend who be-
lieveS that schools should con-
centrate on strictly academic sub
jectS and leave such "frillS" as
driver training up to parents?
If you do, you should be inter
eSted in a recent statement by one
of the top automobile insurance
executives in the country, a man
whose profession is grounded al
most completely on the basis of
statistical conclusions from deter
mined facts. He doesn't believe
driving should be taught anywhere
but in high schools.
JudSon B. Branch, president of
one of the leading automobile in
surance corporations in the world,
not only believes in the value of
driver training in high school but
supports it by a program of grants
to colleges and universities so that
more high school driving teachers
can be trained. In addition, it en-
courages teen-agers to take high
school driver training courses by
offering premium discounts to
those students who successfully
pass approved courses.
In a recent report on the COM
pany's High school driver grant
program, Branch is quoted as say
ing, ITO make sure that teenagerS
become safe and competent driv-
erS, we've got to take training out
of the hands of well-meaning re-
latives and friends and see that
it is provided by competent high
school instructors"
The insurance executive points
out that few relatives and friends
are competent instructors on any
subject, much less one so import
ant as driver training.
Even if the Would-be teacher
is a safe driver himself, he just
doesn't know the proper teaching
techniqueS that will effectively
get his information across efficien.
thy to the youngster he is trying
to instruct" Branch says. Teach,
ing safe driving and imparting the
proper attitudes in a youngstel
requires an instructor who is train
ed for this purpose"
The worst effect of amateur in,
struction is that the instructor
quite often passes on his own baC
driving habits to the youngster HI
tries to teach, Branch emphasizes
This is avoided when the studen
learns to drive in a SUPERVISED
hioh school class
"Our record show that properl.
trained high school driving stu
dents have less than half the &C
cidents and traffic violations of I'm
trained students in the same ag
group" Branch says. "T'd like t
see all high school students in tn
country take a driver trainin
course before they graduate fror
high school.

FARMING BEE TO HELP
CARTWRIGHT FARMER

When Henry ISZley, a farmer in
the Cartwright community, recent
ly underwent major surgery in Bill
lings which left him unable to tend
to his farming operations, his
neighbors came to his rescue and
with their many tractors nearly
completed 220 acres of seeding in
one day.
Willie LaSsey supervised the pro-
ject which was carried out with
IL tractors with drills, plows or
duckfoots trailing.
Men who did the work and a
few who were there to help in any
way possible included Arnold
Skogen, Guy Shade, Dennis Skor-
pill, Gerald Melland, Jerry Lassey
Emil Lassey, Clarence Skogen, Roy
Johnson, Ray Oakland, Johnny
Walker, Charles Lassey of the

them into strength instead of
weakness.
We must realize that extern
slve efforts of government-spon-
sored committees are of little
value unless we, the private cit
lzen, fulfill our part of the re-
naming task. It is of the utmost
Importance that we are ready to
act quickly. We must never feel
complement because of a Sc
cluded area but rather learn all
we can about what could take
place.
"Fallout" is a term not always
understood, a term which means
contaminated radioactive particles
of dirt, stone, and other debris
carried into the upper air by the
force of nuciear explosion. Many
of these particles have been known
to rise 10000 feet in that mush-
room-shaped cloud we have learn
ed to fear. From there they spread
downward and outward over an
area of hundreds of square miles.
The particles from the explosion
start to fall shortly after the bomb
is fired and they settle near the
point of explosion. The longer the
cloud is in the air and the farther
it spreads the less danger is en-
countered from it. The greatest
danger is during the first days of
exposure but even at low level
radiation people can become i'll
when exposed for long periods.
The only defense against radio
active fallout in the area where

Civil Defense
The most pressing problem to-
day which the common public
eludes and entrusts to his neigh
boris care is Civil Defense. Civil
Defense is not a recent develop
ment. From the moment we set
foot ON these United States it has
been a constant and urgent neceS-
sity for survival. Our forefathers
were concerned mostly with ma
turaI disaster and readiness for
attack. Today with the increase
in population, the development of
nuclear weapons, and the curse
of radioactive fallout, we must
arouse ourselves to the necessity
of Civil Defense to a far greater
extent than ever before.
The term Civil Defense is a very
broad term which has many con-
ceptS. Defense against natural
causes still exists, but the affects
of dlsater can be reduced by
studying the causes and learning
how to combat them. Today our
primary defense must be against
instruments of war, instruments
which. are the newest and moSt
destructive ever conceived by man
The deadliest of these is the H,
Bomb and its aftermath-radio
active fall out. We must realize
that it is necessary to combat fall
: out or perish.
A large number of people tenC
to ignore or refuse to assume re
q sponSibility for defense measures
These people maintain that if the.
forget about Civil Defense tn
need for it will disappear. Thi
