Senator De Luqo
DEGREES Misuse Of
Pub. Funds for Fence

Pup. unQS fOr enCe
Senator Ron de Lugo, Demo
cratic National Committee
man for the Virgin Islands and
first elected member of the
Virgin Islands Legislature, to-
day issued a strong statement
opposing the use of public
funds for the construction Of
a fence on private property at
former Administrator for st.
No. ga and 8B Company
Street, Christiansted. De Lugo,
Crox, said that he had received
reports today that a fence con-
structed of concrete blocks
was being erected at public
expense by the Public Works
Department on the properties
owned by Mr.. Axel Schade.
De Lugo stated that an on
the-spot investigation and a
phone call to the Pubic Works
Department confirmed that
the fence was indeed being con
structed at the taxpayers ex-
pense. The Senator said there
could be no justification for
such fragrant misuse of public
funds.
The site, the release states,
has been q controversial one
for some time. When de Lugo
was Administrator for ST.
Croix, he ordered condemna-
ton and removal of several
ancient structures located on
the properties. The buildings

Reasons For Soviet Crop Failure

first to heavy industry, space and wea-
pons What little is left goes to farming.
AS a result Soviet farmers have less farm
mechanization and chemicals to work
with, but have many more people to feed.
Soviet farmers have a lack of incen-
tives under their collective system. They
don't own their farms and the govern
ment tells them what and when to plant.
They either earn wages as factory work
ers do, or they share in the profits of the
farm.
This in turn leads to the problem OF
poor farm management. Khrushchev has
publically laid the blame several times
to this poor planning, dishonesty and
waste.
Many new plans have been tried in the
Soviet Union recently to upgrade then
farming But now have succeeded. Why
have we succeeded, where communism
has so far failed? The answer lies in the
contrasting systems. Khrushchev nigh
try freedom to farm as an answer.

If you feel that hunter-farmer
relations are at an all time high,
you should spend a little time
in the Herald office when some
of the rural brethren come in
for signs to post their land.
Stories of open gates, cut fences
and other somewhat childish
stunts by some of the nimrods
certainly put a burden Of guilt
on all of us. Perhaps if the
farmers, as was suggested in the
Billings Gazette earlier this fall
would come to town, shoot up
a few buildings, kill few dogs

United States disarmament is the SUBJ
ject of a release from Congressman Jim
Battin this week. Total disarmament and
the relinquishing of our forces to the
United Nations is something that you
don't just toss around lightly. Disorders
such as we have been experiencing IN
the South would certainly come before
the world group. Then you can just about
imagine what chaos would result.
Here's few excerpts from Battin's re-
lease and we're passing these along be-
cause we think in our own opinion that
it would be foolhardy to contemplate
such a move.
"Some of the thinking and proposals
on arms control measures are such that
l could not personally agree could not
support any move to turn over control
of our military establishment to the
United Nations although there are those
in high positions in our government who
have advocated exactly that.
The newly nominated Secretary of the
Navy is one of them. Paul H. Mite, AS
sistant Secretary of Defense for Interna-
tional Security Affairs before his nomin-
alton by the President to succeed Secre-
tary Korth, who resigned, was chief adj
visor to President Kennedy during the
1860 campaign on national security policy
when Kennedy urged abandonment OF
the defense of Quemoy and Matsu.
In 1858 in speech Mite rejected the
concept of nuclear retaliation, urged the
us. to continue the suspension of nu-
clear tests, declared that military force
should be used only under control of the
United Nations and recommended seat
ing of Red China in the UN. He has
since advocated - "That we multilater
alize the command of our retaliatory sys
TENS by making our Strategic Air Com
mand NATO command and that we in
form the United Nations that NATO vii
turn over ultimate power of decision o.
the use of these systems to the Genera

Dear Editor:


Recently someone sent me a
newspaper clipping reporting on,
and in some cases quoting from
a speech by Sen. Quentin Bur-
dick at the annual convention of
N. D. gasoline dealers in Fargo,
N. Oak, defending his much
discussed Little Missouri RoOSe-
welt Parkway bill, which is now
| in committee hearings In the
Senate.
He made some very mlslead-
ing statements to these people,
which l think should be clarified
He said, the principal oppo-
sition to his bill are IA ranchers
and that this parkway doesn't
interfere one bit with the normal
operations and land use they
have had for years" Well, map
of the proposed parkway ap-
proved by the National Park
Service, made at a cost OF sew
eral thousand dollars, shows this
road crossing hay fields, pri-
vate pastures and in several
cases through ranch yards and
feedlots. Maybe we are eccentric
but We think this would interfere
quite critically with normal op'
erations.
Mr.. Burdick also said II cam
for the life Of me understand
the opposition" Well, maybe hi
could understand it better if tht
situation were reversed and
some Federal bureaucrat pro
) posed to take a strip 62 rod
wide across his ranch and tenc'
it.
AS 10 giving the impression
that the IA ranchers are tn
only obiectors, the Senator know
|. this is not true. At the Medor
! meeting, where he was IN tn

area towns and local organiza-
tons for opposing this legisla-
tive monsrosity are well known
by Sen. Burdick.
He told the convention that
20 per cent of the land in the
area is federally owned. This
is true, but why didn't he tell
them that about 80 per cent Of
his proposed route would be on
the privately owned ranch head
quarters land in the valley.
His estimate of Z million dollars
for construction has raised 2
million dollars since he first IN
troduced his bill and I'd like to
bet someone that it would be
at least Is million before it's
finished. Any bets?
Have you read the article in
September Readers Digest,
"BulldoZers at Your Door," ]
suggest you read it and think
about What could happen to you
if this land grabbing spree con-
rinues a few mire years.
Most of the Cases where lane

Our neighboring city of Glendive just
okayed an $500 Centennial promotion
for next wear = 'The Montana Story"
Cities across Montana are being urged by
the Centennial Commission to stage the
production, however, the cost left mem
bers of the Sidney Centennial Committee
more than a little nervous and they
mixed the plan after some lengthy dis
cussion.
Since that point Sidney's Centennial
committee has been rounding out pro-
gram for the centennial observance that
should prove to be the finest in Montana.
The committee meets each Saturday
morning at $50 am. and has already
put together the framework for fine
celebration next June.
There has always been laudable civic
pride in Sidney and the Yellowstone
Valley, and in spotlighting the historic
background, the committee has been do
ing magnificent job. The historic ele-
ments in the occasion will go back long
way, and energetic Bob Johnson and his
committee plan on taking advantage OF
them.
Within a short time the committee
should be ready to give detailed report
of their plans to date and it should be
interesting, lively and lot less than
