81 Million Americans Poverty
Stricken, Magazine Reports

"Some 80 million Americans are
still living at or below the Threshold
of poverty That statement comes,
surprisingly enough, from a leading
magazine of the business world
FORTUNE, which sells for $1.25 a
copy.
In its March issue, the magazine
says further that the so million fig
ure, even though it's down sharply
from past years, 'is too many in a
country whose 1860 gross national
product reached $503 billion"
Moreover, most of these 32 million
are poverty-stricken Gin good times
as we'll as bad"- though the problem
has been intensified by the current
recession, Fortune makes it clear.
The magazine reports that Presi-
dent Kennedy spotlighted the situa-
ton when, Gas his first executive ac-
ton on becoming President of the
richest nation on earth," he doubled
the quantity of surplus foods being
distributed to some three million of
the neediest Americans.
President Kennedy's action :.
dramatized, and was meant to drama
tie, that for all its wealth and prog
ress, the U. S. still has too much
distress and poverty in its midst, and
that here surely is one frontier which
clamors for attention." Fortune adds.
1t says Kennedy's big task is to
crack the current "hard core of un-
employment, and at the same time

Home Building Pace Will
Leave Is Per Cent III-Housed
By Year 1000

WASHINGTON, D. C.-(CNS)-
Senator John Sparkman (D-Ala.)
banking committee chairman, said
three-fourths of the people in the
U. S. in the year 1000 will lack decent
homes if the nation continues to build
at it's present rate.
Speaking at the National Housing
Conference convention here, March
Is, Sparkman decried the slow pace
of home building. He said IL million
new homes went up in 1859, 1 u mil
lion last year, and so far this year
the rate has dropped to 100000.
Sparkman said the nation needs two
million new homes a year "just to
stay even'. ret
Sparkman said he would ask Presi-
dent Kennedy and u. S. delegates to
United Nations to push a new hous-
ing agency, equal in status to Food
& Agriculture Organization or Inter
national Labor Organization.

Former Young Demo Head
Replies To Mrs. Graham
Dear Harry:

Dear Harry:
1 always enjoy reading the Voice
but especially during the Legislative
session. If it were not for the Voice
we'd never know how our Senators and
Representatives conducted our affairs
while in Helena
was interested in reading the letter
in the March "a issue by the wife of
Freshman Senator Carroll Graham of
Big Horn. Obviously she thought the
Voice was okay, too, until her husband
abandoned the Dem ocratic platform
and voted with the Republicans on sew
eral major issues. Apparently she would
rather we didn't know about that.
L don't especially want the Grahams
or other Senators who did a good job
part of the time to seriously consider
changing parties as you suggested. L
would call their attention to the tradi-
tions and the platform of the Demo-
cratic party and hope that they'll sup
port their party in the future.
Naturally our Legislators should
think for themselves, but while so do
ing should think about other people.
Those who voted with the COP as
called liberal are of little credit to
their party. They have played right
into the hands of the Birchites and
Chamber of Commerce. They won't get
any help from these groups next time
they're up for election, and unless they
support their own party there will be
little reason for Democrats to support
them.
The rebirth of McCarthyism is un-
fortunate, but lets not admit defeat by
it. It's time the liberals quit soaring
so easily and come out fighting. Very
truly yours. - GORDON MATHESON,

State House Beat -.
FRANKLY SPEAKING

Late last Thursday afternoon the
newshounds'' dropped their weary
bones into the green leather furniture
of the anteroom of the Governors
office. Things were quite dull on the
news front and after traipsin' over
the Capitol campus for inspiration
to base headlines about the great
workings of the State, it seemed a
welcome five minutes of Ginning
with the receptionist was in store.
But no, that william in the guise
of Governors assistant, Denny Cor
don, could not bear the sight of all
that talent" going to waste-besides
cluttering up the decor-so he de-
cided that there should be press
conference.
Gov. Donald Nutter went along.
What did we want to know?
His fishing trip to the Salmon River
hideaway had been pretty well worked
out. The weather had caught UP with
the party and even with all the extra
time he had caught only one steel
head.
Denny came IN the office and
handed out copies of letter from
Frederick G. Dutton, special assistant
to President John F. Kennedy, about
the manganese ore the government
had stored in Butte. During the legis-
lature there had been some questions
asked about the stuff which is mined
in Philipsburg, and Nutter shot the
question on to the President.

The Governor then proceeded to
expound his views on education. He
took stand in direct opposition to
Supt. of Public Instruction Harriet
Miller on the subject of the founda-
tion program. He thought the amount
of money was enough but that the
foundation program was IL years old
and Should be changed so that $50
districts could participate more.
He was going to name a 80 or
more member committee to study the
foundation program as House reso-
luton requested. The executive COM
mittee of this committee would in
clude Miss Miller and d. d. Cooper

The herd bull on your farm
can 60 a long way in determin-
ing whether you sell $45 calves
or $lO0 calves. The salvage
value of old bulls and those OF
poor quality would contribute
much toward paying for the
right kind.
Do not be satisfied with an
ordinary bull.
If you are going to improve
your cattle. your bull must be
better than the calf crop and
better than the cows. Remem-
Der your herd bull is the most
important single animal in
your herd.
The value of our cattle was
SAT a head less than the ma
tional average on Jan. of this
year. At the same time, the
calf crop in Mississippi was
14To less than the national av-
erage.
If we would just advance to
the national average, we would
nearly double our cattle IN
come.
And the right kind and
numbers of bulls, properly
managed would go a long way
toward achieving this goal.
Think what it would add to
the economy of the state.
Here is how to do it.
