In spite of the vast changes that Texas has undergone since
Bie days of the trail drives, members of the Texas and Southwest-
ern Cattle Raisers Association represent an Industry that. has
ehanged as much or more than any other Industry in America to-
day, keeping pace with changing times and keeping faith with the
state whose economy it supports vigorously.
When leaders ef the industry meet In San Antonio this
week (March 17-19) the eyes e< Texas and the nation win
be on their efforts to eliminate the historic “boom or bast"
cycles in beef supplies. Efforts are being made annually to
reduce the wild, wide swings known in the industry as the
cattle cycle through sensible application of modern, sound
business practices.
For well over 50 years, Texas has supplied the nation with
B per cent of all beef produced in this country. In so doing, the
hidustry has been the backbone of the state’s economic welfare.
So closely is the cattle Industry tied to the state's economy .that
when a cow is stung by a horse fly, half the people in Texas
jeB “ouch!”
In the face of an expanding population, Texas cow men,
through their giant 10,000-member Association, are making decl-
Mons today that will guarantee tomorrow’s citizens with sufficient
beef for their tables
During the next 20 years, Texas’ population is expected to
rise to 12,000,000 people’ and the national figure may reach 200
million The cattle industry must begin preparing today for this
Increased demand, ,
Unlike manufactured products where consumer goods
can be accelerated or diminished according to demand,
cattle production is a slower process and not so simply
turned off and on. It takes a minimum of three years to
',ree^> feed and bring a calf to market—and much longer
for mature beef. r L-
Texas cow men are reaffirming their vows in San An-
tonio this week to continue to supply the nation and Texas
with the meat they like best, and to fulfill their economic
responsibilities as one of the state’s lairgeiit and most im-
portant industries. Income from agricultural industries, of
which cattle production accounts for more than one-third,
is only 20 per cent less than the petroleum industry income.
Kroni longhorns and open ranges, the industry has progressed,
incorporating the necessary changes in techniques, procedures and
technology to guarantee a steadily improved supply of beef to
the nation. -

No Substitute For Printed Word
Man’s appetite for news is Enormous. We have to be deprived
i<f 1
of It before we fully understand1 how we crave this form of ment-
al nourishment.
A Reuter’s dispatch tells of an ex-American soldier, captured
in Korea, who chose to live in Red China with his Chinese wife.
The one extravagance in which he Indulges Is" a subscription to a
news agency bulletin printed in English. It costs 15 yuan <|8.S0)
a month—one sixth of his income. He told a reporter: “ .. .he felt
he must get news somehow.”
Too few persons appreciate a newspaper until it is hard to
get. Most Americans take it for granted. The ex-soldier has a radio
but he finds nothing takes the place of printed news.

An Old Story
- U s. News St Wqrld Report says: "Two simple facts give yon
a due to what has been happening in American industry : /•
“Fact one is that output of goods in factories for
each man-hour of work has risen only a trifle more than 1
per cent in the two years since 1955.
' "Fact, two is that hourly pay of factory workers has in
that same period gone up a bit more than 10 per cent.*___
„ This trend could produce something new in this country—a
depression accompanied by high and rising prices; This 1s the
kind of Inflation that has destroyed currencies and brought col-
lapse to governments all through history. . *
