# Declares Farm Prosperity Not Due to Supports
HELENA (P) — An American Farm Bureau Federation spokesman here Wednesday attacked "a delusion" claims that price supports were responsible for farm prosperity from 1942-1952 in his talk to 22 captains and workers of the Montana Farm Bureau.
"This delusion . . . is one of the most dangerous mistakes that anyone can make," Roger Fleming, Washington, D.C., national federation executive secretary, said.
"Farm prices were relatively high during this period because of war demands and postwar foreign aid.
"It has been only during the last two years that we have come to see some of the true character of price supports that have little or no relationship to the supply and demand situation.
Fleming cited political football factors in farm prices by adding: "Farmers are in a bind today. We should realize this fact when analyzing political statements. There are far more people with a short term political interest in cheap food than there are concerned with farmers actually not getting high real income on a per family level.

"Producers of high quality wheat in Montana must get higher prices to produce this high quality commodity to justify than producers lower quality. Any program that creates this kind of situation certainly needs improvement."

# Six Hospitalized in Auto Wreck
HELENA—Three Helena children, their two mothers and their grandmother all were in St. John Hospital beds Wednesday after a freak wreck which sent their car off a city street and partially filled with icy water.
The car went off Grant Street, but apparently the children and women were saved from over-exposure. The women are Mrs. Minnie Kreatinghouse and her sister Mrs. Blanche Boonhaus of 735 Fifth Avenue East, and their mother, Mrs. Doris Lees of East Helena.
Mrs. Lees reportedly has been in serious condition with a head injury. Mrs. Kreating is being treated for an injury in the ovary in the pelvic region, and Mrs. Boonhaus has an injury in the chest.
Although all were painfully hurt and suffered shock, none was believed serious.
The children were Mrs. Kreatinghouse and infant daughter and Mrs. Boonhaus's son.
The accident occurred at about 7 p.m. when they were returning from a trip to Missoula. Mrs. was reported driving the 1900 Chevrolet tudor sedan. A key patch on the highway was blamed for throwing the car out of control and onto its side in the borrow pit. One of the wheels came off the wreck and freed the others.
The accident took place about two miles south of Helena on U.S. Highway 91.
The women were quoted as saying the water in the borrow pit was not deep enough in which to drown, but they and the children were covered with mud and chilled by the drenching water.
The women were more be-nighted than indignant over the motorist who stopped, but refused to aid them. Later, Dean Stallinger of Jefferson City took the women and children to Albankers in his car, where they met a flagman attendant, and they ran into Helena. Dr. C. S. Meeker, 2271 a pediatrician, happened along and administered first aid in Albankers. Highway Patrolman Clifford M. Small investigated the accident.
