Two MONTANA STANDARD, BUTTE, THURSDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 28, 1954 ## Column 1 # Declares Farm Prosperity Not Due to Supports HELENA (UP) — An American Farm Bureau Federation spokesman here Wednesday attacked as "a delusion" claims that price supports were responsible for farm prosperity from 1942-1952 in his talk to 225 captains and workers of the Montana Farm Bureau. "This delusion . . . is one of the most dangerous mistakes that anyone can make," Roger Fleming, Washington, D. C., national federation executive secretary, said. "Farm prices were relatively high during this period because of war demands and postwar foreign aid. "It has been only during the last two years that we have come to see some of the consequences of price supports that have little or no relationship to the supply and demand situation. Fleming cited political football factors in farm prices by adding, "Farmers are a minority group. We should realize this fact when analyzing political price fixing. There are far more people with a short term interest in favor of cheap food than there are concerned with ranchers and farmers getting high real income on a per family basis. "Over the long pull, the welfare of farmers and ranchers can best be protected by their producing what the market wants.

"Producers of high quality wheat in Montana are losing their right to produce this high quality commodity to other areas producing lower quality. Any program that creates this kind of situation certainly needs improvement." Fleming was keynote speaker at the one-day meeting of captains and workers who will carry out the Montana Farm Bureau membership enrollment campaign seeking enlistment of 5,000 state farm families. George Diehl, Helena, state president, presided at the session. # Six Hospitalized in Auto Wreck HELENA—Three Helena children, their two mothers and their grandmother all were in St. John Hospital here Wednesday night after a wreck which sent their car into a borrow pit partially filled with icy water. The three women were injured, but apparently the children suffered no worse than slight exposure. The women are Mrs. Margaret Keating of 213 Spencer, her sister Mrs. Blanche Routzahn of 122 Fifth, both of Helena, and their mother, Mrs. Doris Lees of East Helena. Mrs. Lees reportedly has possible fractured ribs and a pelvis injury; Mrs. Keating is being checked in particular for an injury in the pelvic region, and Mrs. Routzahn's injuries included the chest. Although all were painfully hurt and suffered shock, none was believed serious. The children were Mrs. Keating's son and infant daughter, and Mrs. Routzahn's son. The accident occurred at about 7 p.m. when they were returning from a trip to Butte. Mrs. Lees was reported driving the 1950 Chevrolet tudor sedan. An icy patch on the highway was blamed for throwing the car out of control and onto its side in the borrow pit. One of the women got out of the wreck and freed the others. The accident took place about 15 miles south of Helena on U.S. Highway 91. The women were quoted as saying the water in the borrow pit was not deep enough in which to drown, but they and the children were covered with mud and chilled by the drenching. The women were more bewildered than indignant over one motorist who stopped, but refused to aid them. Later "Ting" Tintinger of Jefferson City took the women and children to Alhambra in his car, where they met a Hagler ambulance for the trip into Helena. Dr. C. S. Meeker, Butte pediatrician, happened along and administered first aid at Alhambra. Highway Patrolman Clifford M. Small investigated the mishap. # Treed by Moose WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS (AP) — Young Viola Jordan was walking in an open field along a ridge when she saw it.
