An exchange says: ‘It's time the |
government shook the sealter- |
Lrained economic theorists out of | it
its hair and accepted big business |
as a normal, necessary, and,
desirable adjunct of this great in-
dustrial nation.” And we heartily’
agree. |

citizen
indeed, |
Every American
read the article on Korea in the last |
issue of Readers’ Digest. It must |
be the truth or it would not have |
been published. |
After reading it will some one
please tell us why Uncle Sam is the |
goat. Also why we have had more |
wa- casualties than during (World |
War II and as yet no war has been
declared.
Just don’t make sense.

How many people do you hear
saying. ‘To heck with it, we're liv-
ing better than we ever did be-
fore?” And bow many of the pesple
who make that remark could pay
off their share of the per capita na-
tional debt we have accumulafed
to make our current standard of
living possible? Surely these same
people are smart enough te know
that we can’t continue borrowing
forever. But do they have the de-
termination and the fortitude or
patriotism to sacrifice something |
upon the altar of democracy? Too |
many, we fear, having the vision]
lack determination.

CASH FOR THE FARMER
When it comes to cash income,
meat is the biggest thing, in the]
life cf the farmer. Last year meat |
animals brought him the nice]
round sum of $3,590,000.0¢0—almost
one-third ef his entire cash income |
from all crops plus government |
payments. No other single source!
of ‘income came even close to the!

The virtue of livestock, from the
farmer's point ¢f view, is that it can
be raised in practically all locations |
gieate:
and on any scale frem one animal!
up. There are great ranches, which |
produce thousands ¢f head. But a!
very large percentage cf the meat
we consume is found in the accum-
ulated supply produced by farmers
who raise a few animals each year!
as a sure and steady source of cash.
In the meat business, there is
roem for all, and all are needed.
A hearty meat industry is of the
highest importance to the farmer |
and rancher—ijust as if is tp the
who wants his steaks
and chops and hamburger to be a-
vailatle when he desires them. The
kind ¢f a meat industry was built
in the free, competitive ma:ket,
under the supply-and-demand ec- |
onemic system. And the pity is that
kind of market is always under-
mined and weakened when govern-
ment takes hold of the reins with
price and other controls. We are
seeing that now—with meat scarci- |
ties in many consuming centers,
growing black markets, and dislo- |
cations all along the line in

distribution. In the long pull, al
controlled economy harms every- |
