a a Page Twenty THE DAILY REPUBLIC, Mitchell, S.D., Wednesday, Nov. 25, 1953. Armstrong County, With 11 Voters, Ceases To Exist By Order Of Supreme Court WAS erased from the map Tuesday action of the state supereme court. In unanimous decision, the court decreed that a 1951 law extending the boundaries of Dewey County to encompass Armstrong WAS Valid. The court's decision means that all records, bonks and ACcounts of Armstrong which have been kept at FI.

Plette since 1895 must be moved to Timber Lake. Ft. Pierre is the county seat of Stanley to which Armstrong has been attached for Judicial purposes. Timber Lake is the Dewey County seat. Action of the court reduces the number of counties in South Dakota to 67.

Sixty-four of them are organized with Shannon, Washabaugh and Todd unorganized and A attached to other counties. Armstrong had only 52 people when the 1950 census was taken. It HAS no Incorporated towns, public schools, churches, post offices or improved roads. It was the only county in the United States without A federal employe. Most of the taxable land 18 owned by the Diamond A Cattle Company.

However, the county contains mainly lAx exempt Indiana lands 318,045 acres of reservation. In the 1952 election, 11 persons cast ballots in the county. 'The legislature submitted the question annexation of Arm-1 strong to Dewey County voters. When a majority approved the merger, several Armstrong. and Stanley County residents filed An action to prevent records from being moved from Fl.

Pierre. They asked for writ of prohibition which Circult Judge W. Knight denied. Judge Knight's Action was upheld by the Supreme over counties in the absence of limCourt. "The power of the itations placed upon it by the stitution is plenary and supreme," the court declared.

Those opposed to the merger had contended that the 52 persons in Armstrong should have been given A voice in the matter. To this argument the court replied: 441f a change of boundary atfects two or more organized counties the change must be agreed to by a majority of the votes cast in each county. The constitution makes no provision, however, for submitting the question of a proposed change of boundary to the voters or residents of Rn unorganized county," It also contended that the 1951 law violated the constitutional proof persons or places" and "regulatvigion against "changing a the names ing county and township affairs." The Supreme Court swept that aside in declaring the prohibitions do not apply to special laws enacted under the authority of other constitutional provisions. The court said the fact that Dewey County had bonded indebtedness did not require putting the ger question to 8 vote of Armstrong residents. Dewey County also was upheld In its role as an intervenor in the court case.

Records show Armstrong County has cash assets of about $6,000 deposited with Stanley County Treasurer E. R.

Economist Sees Farm Income In 1954 Equalling That For 1953 BROOKINGS The general tone of the outlook in agrioulture and business is one of fairly general stability in economic aotivity, Lyle M. Bender, Extension Service management specialist at South Dakota State College commented this week. In a consideration of Individual commodities, Bender looked for cattle prices to be more stable than in either of the past two years. Heavy slaughter this year will probably end the expansion in cattle production. Continued heavy slaughter anticipated for next year but probably will not be large enough to reduce cattle numbers unless the drouth gets worse.

Increased production in hogs Is already showing up in tncreased fall farrowing, The Jarger production will show up in increased marketings in the middle of 1954 and prices may decline more than usual, 80. cording to Bender. Between the beginning of the year and early next fall slaughter will stay low and prices relatively high. Some moderate drop in lamb and mutton marketing is foreseen although not much of a price change is anticipated. Feed costs are also expected to remain near ourrent levels.

Bender sald. Large supplies of dairy products will force the price trend lower next year, Bender indicated. The price will be dependent of the level of government price supports and consumption in 1954 and will change little unless price supports are reduced substantially, he said. In reviewing the poultry situs: tion, Bender felt that egg produce tion would be up little from last spring while the price is likely the request of the Auxiliary the Veterans of Foreign. wars of South Dakota.

See Mickelson Appointment Within Few Days By DILLON GRAHAM WASHINGTON IP South Dakotans here who are usually well posted on the state's affairs said Tuesday they expect President Elsenhower soon will appoint former Gov. George Mickelson of South Dakota to a federal judgeship. These sources, who asked this said reporter not to use their names, they believe the Justice partment is preparing to mend the former South Dakota governor for 8 federal district judgeship. Mickelson is known to have the support of both South Dakota Sena-1 tors, Republicans Case and Mundt, for the judgeship, A Justice Department spokesman declined comment.

Judge Lee Wyman of Sioux Falls, who is 78, has asked for relief from his duties because of ill health. But Wyman has said he has no intention of resigning or retiring. This, it Was learned, posed a problem for the Justice Department. Under his executive powers, Elsinterim enhower has authority to make an ocours appointment while when is Vacanoy Congress recess, Such appointments are subject to Senate confirmation after Congress reconvenes. However, SO long as Wyman does of not resign or retire, 110 vacancy actually exists.

So far as can be determined there is no precedeut for 8 0856 like. this. The Justice Depariment therefore must decide whether it feels the President bas authority to make an interim appointment under these conditions or whether 14 will be necessary to wait until Congress convenes next year. The South Dakota sources say it is their understanding, that the Justice recom. mend Mickelson and that he will be named by the President in a few days, It was recalled that Mickelson flew to Paris early last year when Elsenhower headed the NATO ore ganization and Selped persuade him to seek Republican nomination for President.

Mickelson headed the Eisenhow. er campaign forces in South Dakota and is known to be well regarded by the President. He also has served as attorney general of his state. CARTHAGE Funeral services were held at 10 a.m. Wednesday in Woonsocket for Mrs.

Prices for both flaxseed and potatoes may suffer in view of heavy supplies, Bender said.

Supplies of flaxseed and linseed oil will exceed the year's requirements, A reduced acreage in potatoes is likely in 1954 because of depressed prices, The price of late potatoes will depend on spring plantings, be said. The carryover of wheat is at a record level but acreage al. Jotments may reduce produce lion enough to prevent inoreases in stooks unless yields are unusually high. Prospects for 1954 point to a larger duction of soybeaus which may move prices to a lower level than in 1953. Demands on the economy in 1954 could be less than in 1953 with some segments of the economy levelling off and even declining in some instances.

However, Bender feels the total reduction in economio activity and employment in prospect next year will be slight to moderate. "However, in my opinion we are in a position when marked changes could take place," he said. The pressures pushing prices of farm products down this past year came from large supplies of farm products and declines in exports. There will be less pressure on farm prices from the supply side In he said. Prices received by farmers in the year ahead may deoline a little.

At the same time prices paid are expected to deoline slightly. As a result the postprice squeeze may not get any worse. Net farm income may ay. erage close to that expected for 1953. New Holland Soldier's Unit Wins Merit Award WITH THE 7TH INFANTRY PIV.
