ladino-brome grass seeding yielded
close to two tons and 800 pounds of
protein per acre. To get these better
grasses and legumes, lime and fe rti
lizers carrying phosphate and potash
were needed to build the soil's

Completely killin g the old grass
involves thorough fall working of
the field. On heavy sod, criss-cross
the field with disc to cut the sod into
chunks. Then dig the field twice
with the field cultivator, working
around the slope the second time.
Just before freezing, dig the field to
leave it rough. Lim e and plant food
can be broadcast before the field
is worked or can be put on at seed

Then, next spring, seed the high

Beef Demand to Remain
At High Level, Report
The demand for beef as one of the
best preferred foods in the house
hold shopping list w ill probably re
main strong for some time, as full
employment at good wage seems
to be in the picture fo r this country.
Breeders of foundation stock,
growers of feeder cattle and finish
ers of feed-lot beef are directly
concerned with the expansion of the
beef industry to meet this growing
demand, says Charles A. Burmeis-
ter of the U. S. agriculture depart
ment.
Burmeister says that statistics of
the cattle industry show that prod
ucers have been and are now build
ing up their breeding herds.
"The present beef breeding herd
of the country is the largest on rec
ord, while the 1950 crop is apt to ex
ceed that of 1949 by 800,000 head.
Much of this gain if numbers w ill
i
be in beef type calves,” he said.

More on Dew ey-H anley
Here is more inside on the bitter
New York battle which raged over
the heads of Gov. Tom Dewey and

Dewey heard of the existence of
the Hanley “ sell-out” letter, and on
October 11 asked his lieutenant gov
ernor for a copy. Hanley refused.
Hanley had w ritten the letter to
Kingsland Macy in September and
sent a copy to James Leary, a Sara

Brotherhood at W ork
Loyola university in Los Angeles
canceled its scheduled
football
game with Texas Western at El
Paso because Loyola had a Negro
halfback whom Texas Western
would not allow to play.
When Stanley Meyers of Univer
sal Pictures congratulated Loyola
fathers for their stand against race
discrimination, one of them re-
marked: “ Unfortunately, it cost us
$8.000. That was the guarantee we
were to give Texas Western, and
we felt m orally bound to pay them
j w’hen we canceled. We don’t know
where we’ re going to get the $8,000,
but it was worth the money.”
“ Never mind, Father,” replied
i Meyers, “ the Lord has ways to take
i care of those things.”
So Meyers, giving the Lord
an assist, went to Noah Die
trich, head of the Hughes Tool
Company of Houston and the
man whose telephone as well as
that of Howard Hughes was
tapped in Washington by Sena
tor Brewster of Maine on be
half of Pan American Airways.
“ Noah,” said Meyers, “ you re
cently joined the church. Also
you’ re from Texas, a state whose
attitude on the color question has
just cost Loyola $8,000.”
Meyers went on to suggest that
D ietrich make up the money which
Loyola College had lost. Next day
the Loyola fathers were suprised
to receive a check for $8,000.

Battle-Experience Counts
The Korean war has exposed
' glaring weakness in the arm y medi-
1 cal service—namely, that tragical
ly few of its doctors were trained
for front-line hospital work. As a
result, wounded G .I.’s suffered
needless agony, even death, on the
Korean front because arm y doctors
didn’ t always know how to set up
tents, improvise beds or stretchers,
ar.d organize field operating rooms.
Most of the young doctors,
placed in command of field
hospital units had never served
outside big, modern hospitals.
They had little experience un
der battle conditions, often
weren't even taught the funda
mentals of field hospital work.
Most people don’t know it, but
the arm y operates only one small
field medical training center at
Fort Sam Houston, Texas, under
the command of a veteran field
surgeon, Maj. Gen. Joseph I. M ar
tin. How’ever, only a fraction of
arm y doctors have been able to
take this training.
Even the surgeon-general, Maj.
Gen. Raymond W. Bliss, has no
background as a field surgeon but
was selected on the basis of his
record for operating large army
hospitals. Like most of his pred
ecessors, Bliss has had excellent
hospital training but little experi
ence near the front. Most m ilita ry
branches won’t appoint a chief who
hasn’t been a field commander, but
not in the medical corps.
Though battle-experienced
doc
tors have pleaded for better field
training,
the arm chair hospital
brass have ignored their warnings.
Meanwhile, the doctors in Korea
are saying privately:
“ For God’ s sake, give us a sur
geon-general who knows what the
battlefield is, and we’ll teach young
doctors how and w’hat to do in the
field.”

of th e ir captains: “ M ove heaven
