Asks Sacrifice To ■! I ' : '. :! Whip Hog Disease Top Veterinarian Asks Cooperation CHICAGO UP —A leading veterinarian called today for “great sacrifice’’ by farmers, meat packers, shippers and other interests to wipe out '-a disease which is ravaging the nation's hog population. Dr. C. D. Van Houweling, assistant (executive secretary of the American Veterinary Medical Association, said “our aim is not just to stop the current epidemic’’ of vesicular exanthema. “We must eradicate the disease entirely,’’ he said. “That can only be done with the aid of great sacrifice by everyone connected with the business of

raising hogs or processing pork.” Vesicular exanthema is a virus al ment that causes blistering- on the mouth and feet of hogs. Since it reduces their eating, the hogs lone weight rapidly. The disease does not affect human beings. The disease is transmitted mostly through the feeding of raw garbage. “Producers who feed their hogs garbage are going to ft> have to do something they didn’t do before,” he said. "They’ll have to ’cook’ the garbage by boiling it long enough to kill the virus. That’s going to take time and extra work: “Railroads will have to really clean and disinfect all stock cars before and after carrying hogs instead of just spraying a little disinfectant.” \ The biggest task, however, will be that of the meat packers. “They’re going to need real forebearance,” Van Houweling said. "Let’s say 200 infected hogs are found today,” Van Houweling said. "They must be held until the reguA lar run of normal animals are\pro-' cessed. | "Then they’ll be put the packinghouse,' with the meat cutters and other employes being paid overtime rates: "The meat can be used only as cooked products—that is, as pre* cooked ' ham, sausage, or canned meat. It (must not be sold as fresh. ' “And that doesn’t end it for the packer. He still must make sure that every part of his plant ahd every piece of equipment is sterilized after contact with the infected

Russia Warns Enemies Reds Still United Warns Enemies Not To Take Advantage ' Os Russian Crisis LONDON UP —Russia warned her enemies today i not to try to take advantage of the crisis caused by Josef Stalin’s death. : A few hours after Stalin died Radio Moscow boomed this warning around the world: “The Soviet people know that the defense capacity and the might of the Soviet State are growing and strengthening, that the party is in every way Strengthening the Soviet ariny, navy and intelligence organs with the view to constantly raising our preparedness for a decisive btebuff to any aggressor.” Observers hpre agreed that Stalin’s death had plunged Russia into her worst trials since the German armies of World War II knocked at the gptes of Moscow.. The fight for Stalin’s mantle may already be underway, but will not be resolved for some time. iMany of the persons who may have a voice in choosing Stalin's successor are not eVen in Moscow now. Foreign Minister Andrei Vishlnsky sails from New York today. Jacques puclos, acting leader of the French Communist party, is booking passage from Paris. Leaders of the Soviet satellites in Europe are reported to be hurrying to Moscow to attend the Stalin funeral and then stay on to participate in the struggle for power. As near as can be determined the Situation in Moscow is as follows: 1. The in the Kremlin are Concerned about the reaction of the Russian people and have broadcast to them an appeal to stand by the Communist party—“in these sorrowful days all the people of our country are rallying evew closer in the great fraternal family of the Communist party.” I 2. Anybody who thinks a revolution will break out immediately probably is engaging in wishful thinking All indication are that the secret police of Lavrenti Beria have the nation firmly under control. ■' 3. V. M. Molotov, senior vice premier, appears to be in control of the government temporarily, but there is no assurance he will be come Staliq’s successor. Georgi M. 1 Malenkov, Commtinist party secretary and former private secretary of Stalin, seems to have the most likely chance to emerge as the strong man. : 4. It may be a month or two before a formal successor to Stalin as premier of the USSF: is named. The Supreme Soviet Usually assembles between March and. May, and that would be a logical time to make the announcement. - 5. It is unlikely that there will be any immediate shift in Russian foreign policy. Even if his successor wanted to make some ch|ngbs, it would take a long time to reorient the nation’s policy, A change In attitude toward the Korean war, tor instance, would have to be carefully negotiated with the Chinese Communists. \ i Reports Malicious Destruction Here ■ Northern Indiana Public Service company’s annual report for 1952, released today by Dean H. Mitchell, president, showed operating revenues of $58,918,067, an increase of 14.7% over 1951. Net income before Federal income taxes was $15,696,523, 13.5% over 1951. Net income after Federal income taxes was $8,471,523, up 9% over 1951.

He said tile that were piled up were deliberately pushed over.. A standard brick weighs about four pounds when composed of the usual clays and shales.

Speaks For Indiana Townsend Plan Bill I Says Cost At Only 30 Million Yearly INDIANAPOLIS UP — The head of the Indiana , “Townsend Plan” organization said today a SIOO-a---month state payment for the aged, blind and Widows with children would cost Hoosier taxpayers no more than $30,000,000 a year. Joseph E. Robb, Indianapolis said there are only 51,000 Hoosiers receiving public welfare 1 assistance In those three categories of aid. If every one of them got $1,200 a year it would total only $61,000,000,' Robb said, and Indiana could get: half that amount from the federal government. Robb spoke In behalf of a “Townsend Plan” bill introduced weeks ago in the Indiana house by Rep. Floyd Oursler A-CynthiAna. The bill never got out of committee. \ He accused state budget director Donald Clark of making "a fantastic and absurd” estimate that the plan would cost the state $277,000,000 annually. “It takes only a little simple arithmetic to disprove this outrageous charge,” Robb said. Clark COuld not be reached for comment on the statement. ' | f- ' Robb said Clark made the estimate early in February "in an obvious attempt to discredit the old age pension movement in Indiana.” p hi—4- l—jII Persons Killed In Pakistan Riots KARACHI, Pakistan, UP -Martial law was declared in Lahore today following riots in which at least 11 persons were killed and 14 injured.
