Lewis, of the institute of American meat packers, Chicago, predicted United States meat production will increase slight ly in 193C but will still be 12 to 15 percent below the ten year average just preceding. He told the Kansas Livestock association the long ex pected upturn in heg production has already begun and that this should be reflected in increased receipts at 61.80 i markets very soon. The department of agriculture survey shoved 3,500,- o or 000 more hogs on farms in January 60.00 I 4 qo i than a year ago. j "If normal weather conditions pre 72.20 I vail." Lewis said, "the inspected hog 50.35 j.!ausiiter in 193G will probably be between 31 and C2 million Lead as compared to 2 6 millions lasi year, which according to the department of agriculture was the lowest since 19 1C and the second lowest since 1336." He caid the exifting relatively 63.00 jhigh hog prices are encouraging pro ducers to replenish in part at least their drastically reduced hog oper- by packers for cattle and calves in 1935 was ouly 24 percent less than the average per year in 1925 29 period but the cost of hogs purchased, plus benefit payments to producers, was 30 percent less.

Buckley, secretary treasurer of the now bankrupt Goodman-Buckley Trust company .is ac cused of embezzling $107 collected in rents from F. M. Kuzer. After Nisley admonished W. E. Shuman, defense counsel, for remarks in his opening statement to which the state objected, Shuman demanded that Nisley step from the bench and be sworn. Shuman said he wished 65.00 !to asx tne judge wa.nntr or not ne had an interest in the case.

The presidents oT Har vard university and of Smith and Tufts colleges urged the Massachu setts legislature to repeal a teachers' oath which compelled their faculty members to swear oath of fealty to federal and state constitutions. Dr. James B. Conant of Harvard de clared Euch oaths to be an attack on academic freedom. He placed on record as also opposed to the law the presidents of Radcliffe, Wheaton, Amherst, Williams, and Mount Hol yoke colleges. He appeared at a leg islative committee hearing on a peti tion lor repeal. Dr. Conant surprised an inquiring legislator much concerned with com munism by declaring that Harvard professors were free to determine the truth as they saw it and to teach it without interference. to - A ITER tie fire the In surance policy be comes a jnost important document. . . .
