War, hate, strife, conflict

all mankind This enemy hides
behind every tree in the jungle
and it creeps over the sand

this bold enemy walks the
streets of cities all over the
world' This enemy is a merci

Egg Pricing Problems May
Yield To Massive Study
Final reports on a massive

Secretary of Agriculture Phillip
Alampi reported to the anninl

it will be n modification of the
present system. Mavbe it will be
an entiielv new approach. The
decision, of course, will even

"My own feeling." he conlinu

is likely to come fiom that studs
or industry, we will see produc
er pressure refine and change
some phases of our existing sys
terns I think these changes will
be evolutionary in nature, not
revolutionary.”
“It has been quite well esta
blished that when a portion of a
commodity exceeds market
needs, there will be a depress
ing effect on the average price
level of that commodity. . . .
Therefore, we shouldn’t blame
the pricing system as such, but
hold down or counteract the de
pressing surpluses ”
