DRINKARD President's Address In his talk this afternoon President Berg praised the foresight of the men who 75 years ago realized the necessity of unity of thought and effort in every section of the state in order that the industry might survive. Turning to the present organization of the association Mr. Berg praised the officers who served the organization so ably and especially commended the work done in combattng the truck license fee increase and the tax on breeding bulls. These two cases, he stated, are not yet finished and must be taken up again at the next legislature. The president touched on the marketing goals for cattle as set up by the secretary of agriculture and stated that it goes without saying that the organization would lend its whole hearted cooperation to the attaining of these goals. Mr. Berg spoke at length on the public land hearings which will take place later this month in Denver and Glenwood Springs and urged stockmen to talk with E. S. Haskell, investigator for the McCarran sub-committee, which will conduct the hearings, while he is in Steamboat Springs for this meeting. Dates of the hearings will be announced later, Mr. Berg said, and it is the hope of the organization that cattlemen will present most of their testimony at Denver, altho they will also be given a chance to present their views at Glenwood Springs. The forestry advisory committee, formed last year at the Alamosa convention, was congratulated by the president for its splendid work in the first year of its existence. He then touched on the wild life situation, particularly the range problem presented by the large herds of deer and elk in some parts of the state. Speaking on the amount of meat fed the army, Mr. Berg pointed out that each man in the armed forces gets one pound of meat daily, giving to the Uvestock growers of the country a tremendous job in feedinf these men. "The ranchers and farmers of these United States are requested and expected to do this tremendous job of providing Food for Freedom, they are expected to continue to produce in spite of ail the handicaps, including the serious shortage of tires, automobiles and trucks which are so necessary in transporting supplies to and from the ranch. "But in spite of these handicaps, I predict that the marketing goals set for the beef cattle industry will be achieved. We can and will cooperate at every opportunity; we will make every sacrifice necessary. If longer hours are required to produce and market, feed and fatten our livestock, they will be worked, and the job will be done, if not in a 40-hour week, then in an 80 or 90-hour week, as many of us today are working from daylight to darkness and have no trouble at all in working 16 hours with no double time or time and a half for overtime. We occupy a front only second in importance to the battle front and we are determined to get there 'fastest with the mostest.' "In spite of all these obstacles, we will produce beef and we will market beef. We will buy bonds and more bonds. We will give aid and support our armed forces, and do everything within our might to em rolling and keep 'em flykeep ' ing," Presidet Berg said as he concluded his talk. Officials Were On The Ground Early Albert Y. Berg of Morley, Colo., president ot the Colorado Stockgrowers and Feeders association , and Dr. B. F. Davis, executive secretary of the organization, came from Denver Wednesday afternoon and Immediately got into the work of arranging for the annual meeting.

Other business this morning was the report of the finance committee made up of Field Bohart, chairman, Charles P. Murphy and Frank Fehling.

C M. Birkett gave a report of the activities of the committee which went to Denver, resulting in the establishment of a signal corps school here. In addition to giving a standing vote of thanks to Mr. Birkett and Bob Smith, members of the committee, a letter was sent to Superintendent A. G. Jelinek, now visiting in Missouri, expressing appreciation of his tireless efforts. He assembled the data, made the personal contacts and had much to do in securing the school. The letter was signed by the more than two score Lions attending the luncheon.

Senator Mose Smith And Wife Here Learn-To-Swim Week To Be June 15-22 Large Group Will Arranging For Learn-to-Swim week, a n n u a l Be Sent To Join Students Of Signal event at the Steamboat Springs pools, has been announced for June 15 to 22 by Dewey Heyer, manager Armed Forces Corps School of the pool for this year.

Tire Quota Is Again Reduced This Month Officials Paint Grim Picture Of Rubber Shortage The quota for automobile and truck tires has again been cut down this month, the Routt county rationing board has been notified. Users are urged to obtain recaps and retreads whenever possible. In fact no certificate for a new tire may be issued if the old tire is capable of being recapped. It is becoming evident that all applicants cannot be granted certificates. The most urgent cases will come first, the others may have to wait or go without. A grim picture of the problem confronting American civilian transportation the next few years, the grimmest and most foreboding yet presented to the people of Colorado because it was both a summary and a consensus of the effects of war, was drawn in Denver Monday. Seven government officials from Washington and a truck association executive from New York City, in Denver to impress the need for drastic conservation of rubber and vehicles, all spoke in the same vein, factually and urgently. And what they had to say gave Uttle hope or encouragement to those civilians who have felt the situation is exaggerated, and that they can afford to spend their tire rubber as tho times were normal. One summary only could be stated of the impression they left—the regulations and voluntary restrictions at the present are as nothing in comparison with the future. May Welfare Report Given Out Here Report of the Routt county welfare department for the month of May was released this week by the director and shows that a total of $13,439.18 was expended in the county during that month for welfare work. Of this amount old age pension payments accounted for the largest share, the amount being $9,809.41, which went to 313 persons. Four applications were received by the department during the month and six were pending from the previous month. Of these four were approved and one denied. Four cases were closed, one by transfer, two by death and one because of sufficient Income Irom o t h e r sources. Within the past few months several cases have been closed on the old age pension rolls while several others have been held open with no payment due to the employment of those who had been receiving the pensions. There have been many placements in Industry of pensioners since the outbreak of the war and several others are expecting to receive positions in the near future. In all of these instances the individual ls making much more than can possibly be paid by the pension. Aid to dependent "children was given to 49 families with 128 children. The amount involved in this department was $1,638. Three cases with four children were closed. The amount paid out of the aid to the blind fund was $103.60 for three cases. Of this $95 was in money and $8.60 medical. General relief was given to 95 cases in the amount of $1,888.17. Six cases were closed and ten new applications approved. One was denied. All relief given in the county this month was to unemployable families. Breakdown of the figures shows that $691 was given in cash, $501.89, assistance in kind, $613.48, hospitalization and $81.80, medical. Senator and Mrs. Moses E.

Of the last group of men sent on May 26, three were unable to pass the final physical examination and have returned to their homes. They are Print Slater, Ivan Shupp and Daniel Webster. Loans For Building Granaries Available One of the greatest problems now facing the farmer is storage for his grain crop which will be harvested this fall. Terminal space is limited eliminating the possibility of shipping grain, the railroad cars, sometimes used for temporary storage, are now in use for the shipping of munitions and there is the possibility of railroads placing an embargo on grain shipments. With these things ln mind the Farm Security administration, thru Reynold W. Hoeglund, Routt county supervisor, has announced that it ls prepared to make loans for the construction or repair of granaries, to care for the fall small grain harvest. Any standard Farm Security borrower or any other farmer who cannot obtain loans for this purnose from other sources Is eligible for such help, Hoeglund said. He ls asking that those who need the help make application early •enough so that construction can be started and the granary finished well in advance of the harvest time. Applications may be made at the Routt county office on the second floor of the Maxwell building. Housing Problem Is Being Taken Care Of Enthusiasm for the establishment of the signal corps school in Steamboat Springs is running high this week and Mrs. A. F. Cruse, in charge of housing, reports a splendid response and cooperation from the residents who have rooms available. While she has now almost enough rooms for the students who will arrive on June 12, she is desirous of having, in writing, information about more available rooms and board in order that she will be sure of having enough accommodations for the additional boys who will come to Steamboat Springs on July first. The school was secured for Steamboat Springs by the state board of vocational education thru the civil service commission and Steamboat is the only small town in which such a school has been placed. Prime reason for the selection of Steamboat Springs for the school was that the town already possessed a $45,000 vocational school building which had previously been given to the town by the NYA t__ru the efforts of Superintendent A. G. Jelinek and other enterprising citizens. With this building available and equipped for the training to be given the men the state board decided to place the school here. In order to keep the school, which will be not only for the duration of the war but also will probably be used as a rehabilitation center after the conflict is over, it is imperative that the men be properly housed. The committee which met with the state board assured its members that there would be sufficient places available for housing. A number of the trainees are married men who have the responsibility of keeping themselves, but also maintaining their families. A ceiling of $45 for room and board bas been placed on the price to be charged for housing the men. This the state board felt would be commensurate with national figures on living eexpenses. The school will run ln three eight-hour shifts and the housing committee plans to put men and women in the same classes together so that there will be no great confusion attendant upon their coming and going to classes whatever their class time. Length of instruction is six months and the students are taught advanced radio repair, maintenance and installation. They must have a minimum of six months paid experience on a radio repair bench or its equivalent in class training in order to qualify for the school. As each class is finished more trainees will be sent in to ¦ireplace them, making a constant enrollment of 320 in the school. Classes will start on June 1 with 5 the first group of trainees arriving on June 12. A further group wlQ arrive on July 1 From time to . time government supervisors and inspectors will be sent in to look over the school and to enquire into the housing situation and the manner in which the program is being conducted. The committee of Steamboat men who went to Denver In the interest of the school was C. M. Birkett, Bob Smith and A. G. Jelinek. Memorial Day Observed By Legion Appropriate services honoring the dead of past wars and the fighters in the present wars were held on Memorial day, Saturday, by the American Legion Post No. 44 tn Steamboat Springs.
