Dave Pingrey, secretary of the Mlssls-
sippi Cattlemen's Association, in his col
umn. Cow Talk, carried in the Livestock
Weekly. brings to light another federal
claw gnawing at free enterprise. We pre-
sent Mr. Pingrey's point as he stated II:
There is nothing funny in this months
column; just as there is nothing humorous
in the situation that currently con1rontS
us in Washington. Mr.. Freeman has re-
turned from Russia and the push is on
to draft an extension of the Soil Conserva-
ton Reserve Program (Soil Banh with
clause to allow grazing on this lana for
which payments are made to have With
drawn from production One does not nave
to be overly astute to recognize this braz-
en- plan as the original wolf dressed as
a sheep.
The Beef Industry is an obvious source
of irritation to the current Agricultural
Administration Operating under an econo-
mic system which they consider obso-
lete Ga relic of bygone days called the law
of supply and demanD we have been able
to weather business ups and downs with
out allowing industry control to fall into
outside hands This does not mean all
cattlemen have become wealthy, it does
not mean all cattlemen have prospered,
if does not even mean all cattlemen have
remained solvent; it does mean at least
the majority have been able to make
living without trading their rights for
federal aid.
The law of supply and demand unfortu-
nately can be manipulated quite easily
with outside forces such as imports pro-
duced in a nation whose economic level
and standard of living are vastly different
from the principal nation involved. More
than 1919 of our present beef consump-
ton is composed of imported beef with
the trend an unchecked upward line on the
graph and now with no plan even
in the embryonic stage to limit beef i'm
ports in any way the Federal government
plans a program to pay producers for
stocking previously idle acres. l interpret
this as unsolicited government supsldatlon
of an industry in direct unconcealed et-
fort to cause over-production and econo-
mic depression within that industry

LUTHERANS BELIEVE:
Christ Is GodI


Writing things on a slate doesn't
make them true. Write a hundred
times that 2 plus 2 equals 5, and
you still don't change the facts.
How did you find out the truth
about 2 plus 2? Someone told you.
You had no reason to doubt him
so you learned your sums by
heart. That's a place to begin with
Jesus Christ, too. Millions Of men
tell you He is the Son Of God
whose life and dying saved men
from sin. Isn't there some reason
to consider what so many people
say is true?
That won't do it, you say? AS
many millions and more don't be-
lieve Jesus is God? You're right.
We didn't say it proves anything.
But it should make you think
about 1t! What convinced you that
2 plus 2 equals 4? The teacher
said so, you thought about it, and
then you tried it. IF I have two
apples and you give me two more
apples :" and sure enough! 2
plus 2 equals 4! It never failed.
And now you're sure!
Jesus Christ asks no more! my
doctrine is not mine, but His that
sent Me. If any man will do His
will, he shall know Of the doctrine,
whether it be of God, or whether
I speak Of Myself" (St. John 7:16,
~. This is the proof your Luth-
eran neighbors offer you - try
Him! Hear His words-study them
with your friends and the pastor.
You will konw the truth and the
truth will make you free!

Board, told the capacity crowd Of
worshippers of progress being

phasized that we should send more
trained missionaries to the fieldi
