Plan to Thwart
Cattle Menace
"The foot and mouth disease in
Mexico is more than an American
cattleman's problem. It is North
America's problem," said R. M
Kleburg of Kingsville, Tex., Wed
nesday before a meeting spon
sored by Organized Agriculture on
the Ag campus.
"Cattle in the United States form
the keystone in the arch which
supports our credit structure. Over
70 percent of the acreage of the
United States depends upon cattle
alone for the conversion of its
surface production into wealth."
Kleberg, as former United States
senator from Texas, is now chair
man of the board of management
for the King ranch. The largest
ranch in the United States, the
King ranch contains one million
acres and supports one hundred
thousand cattle.
In his remarks, Kleburg pro
posed a ten point plan for the ef
fective control of hoof and mouth
disease in Mexico and to prevent
its spreading throughout the North
American continent. This program,
if properly pursued, would eradi
cate the disease and insure the
American cattleman against great
losses due to the disease.
"The number one thing on the
agenda of the American people
should be a nation-wide appeal
from the people direct to their
congress that we immediately do
something to see that a plan
which will inevitably work be put
into effect as soon os possible," he
said.

Students Appeal
Grant of License
In North Platte
Seven university students voic
ed a complaint Tuesday at the
state liquor commission office
against James E. Cronin of North
Platte in protest against his ap
plication for a liquor license on a
recreational playhouse.
The North Platte students, J. E.
Toogood, Jo Ann Lisher, Lynn
Gilmore, Myra Maupin, Del Phil
lips, jr., Teddy Whitehead and
Virginia Taylor complained that
attendence to the playhouse would
fall off due to the liquor license
purchase, although no liquor could
be sold until January 15th, 1949,
at which time the playhouse will
be moved.
Miss Myra Maupin, when asked
her opinion of the hearing said
"I don't think Mr. Cronin should
be denied. When we learned both
iides -of ft we realized he was
right."
Miss Virginia Taylor explained
the purpose of the club by stating
that it was the onlv club of it's
kind in North Platte offering rec
reation for all ages. She thought
that attendence might fall even
though Mr. Cronin was probably
right.
The Playhouse will be moved
next year to a new site and will
not be put out by the 1949 liquor
license.
