J. McKennirey, direc tor of the federal government's small business branch. "The inefficient small busi- nessman is going to be elimin- ated," he said in an interview here. "Basically he's the one who won't learn, Without new tech- niques, without adapting, he is going to die out, Just because society is complex doesn't mean the little businessman can't make a living." Reducing business failures will be the goal of a major in. formation' and training cam- paign to be launched by the new trade and commerce de- partment branch, Mr. McKen-| nirey said. . | He noted that 20 per cent of) small businesses go broke or close up every year. Only a hard core survive more than five years. Most of the failures are among newcomers. The figures are based on the definition of a small business as one where all the critical de- cisions are made by one or two people. Without some kind of special help, the individual can- not make the objective deci- sions expected of departments in large firms. He does not have access to market research data, may have difficulty getting good em- ployees, lacks purchasing power and is not always a good man- ager, Mr. McKennirey said. "The biggest obstacle to small business is the changing times, changing' population, changes in competition, changes in goods and services available. formation guides--inquiry cards and data. sheets--to small busi- nesses, offering access to vari- ous sources of business infor- mation.

EAST OPEN EVENINGS TILL 9 723-4621 P.M.--FREE DELIVERY By RON SPEER Bitter quarrels have flored among midwestern United States farmers this fall. Neighbor has turned on neighbor, Fences have been cut. Homes have been dam-' aged. Trucks have been fired en. Relatives aren't speaking. Cause of the bitterness is a launched by the National Farm- ers Organization, The NFO is an organization with voluntary membership, founded seven years ago when farmers were getting only 12 cents a pound for hogs. It now has units in 16 states. After years of building its strength, the NFO a month ago began keeping cattle, hogs and sheep off the markets in an attemp: to boost and stabilize farmers' income, What has been accomplished? Most NFO officials and mem- bers say they still believe they can achieve their goals--long- calling for higher. prices for farm products, They threaten to hold milk off the market this week to increase the effect of the holding action.

Hal- comb, manager of the Swift and Company packing plant at Marshalltown, Iowa. "But we won't hold any grudges when NFO farmers again decide to sell livestock to us. "I think, however, their pro- posals are rather unrealistic. The farmers just can't get to- gether. Some will join the Civil War Flares In Iowa Farmers Dispute NFO, and others: won't because: they want their independence." The NFO's contract with its members call for them to mar- ket all their products through the NFO if and when the NFO gets contracts with processors. Members selling outside the NFO would pay 10 pe~ cent pen- alty on their gross sales. On products marketed by the NFO, the processor would with- hold one per cent of the sale price and turn: it over to the Murder Good As Purge, Prof. Says TORONTO (CP)--Dr. Alan Mewett of Queen's University said Saturday he feels an oc- casional murder is good for so- ciety. because it has a purga- tive effect. Dr. Mewett, speaking at the Second Conference on Criminal Law, said he believes the law is not concerned with morality, but exists to restrain people from excess. The standard of public moral. ity is low and if there were no laws inst hom i faced with mortgage payments, school costs, and day-to-day bills, are wavering.

Professor H. L. A. Hart of Oxford University disagreed with Dr. Mewett, and said he is sceptical of any theory that accepts the maintenance of so0- ciety as an absolute value.

I don't know how long I can keep them off the market." The nuinber of NFO members is a closely guarded secret. Present estimates range from 75,000 to 250,000 members, who pay $25 yearly in dues. Staley says NFO members control 25 to 30 per cent of total U.S; agricultural production. Staley says the NFO does not advocate force or. violence to keep livestock off the market or to persuade farmers to join.
