VJASHiNGTON.-A recent de-
w cision Of the eighth circuit
court of appeals and the events
and factors surrounding it provide
At least partial answer to, several
current questions, among them:
Why didn't the National Labor
Relations Board function in the
General Motors strike?
What did Roosevelt mean by
government by injunction" in his
recent message to Congress?
What is the significance Of the
Wagner act now spectacularly be-
fore. the supreme court?
Why has the administration
failed to take a stern attitude to-
ward sitdown strikes?
The decision of the three judges
In the circuit court Of appeals
tonly one of whom is over 10Y was
refusal to vacate stay which
since last July has prevented the
NLRB from investigating and
holding hearings on Complaints
that General Motors had dis
charged numerous employees for
union activity, employed indus
trial spies and dominated employee
organizations at the st. Louis
Chevrolet-Fisher Body assembly
plant. The complaints involved
alleged violations OF the Wagner
/ babor Relations act and the board
complained that under the stay it
was prevented from 1discharging
its duties under the laws of the

pEsPERApoEs AT LARGE

The prison break at Caledonia Farm Monday IN
which seven long-term convcts escaped, taking two
guards and kidnapped youth as hostages, indicates
that desperadoes are given too many Liberties after
the state expends large sums of money in bringing
about their conviction for the protection OF So
ciety.
Of the seven men who set themselves free Mon
day to terorize the public, three were serving life
sentences for murder. The men were heavily arm
ed, having raided the prison farm arsenal, accord
ing to reports. Surely every precaution should be
taken to make it impossible for desperate men to
be able to conspire together and carry through a
plan of escape with so little interference while
they are in prison.
One of the trio of escaped lifers is from our own
section-Ralph Page, of Drexel, who was convicted
of completely in very cold-blooded Staying The
fact that Page played prominent role in the
break and held gun on the prison guard who was
compelled to lead the convicts to gun room to
procure more weapons, indicates he still uses his
master mind in furtherng criminal plots and
unless he is quickly caught more human blood may
be spilled because of him.-Hckory Record.

A few nights ago highway patrolmen in Meek
lenburg county made raid on liquor joints and
confiscated about $4,000 worth of JOY juice. Now
the fireworks have started. Captain Farmer and
the Charlotte News criticise the patromen for en-
gagng in this sort of work. while vets use the in
cident in an effort to prove that prohibition is
failure. If it argues anything, the very evil
dent fact is that it only goes to show that prohibi-
ton laws can be enforced whenever officers decide
to enforce them. And if and when local officers
,fefuse neglect enforce the laws, the highway
patfomen ought to be given hero medals for doing
what local officers fail to do, instead of receiving
the criticism of those who are supposed to be law
abiding citizens.-Marshville Home.

clouds, for the light from the sun be-
hind low. evening clouds adds the
touch that makes the picture"
No set rule can be made on the ex-
posure time for sunset pictures but
generally you will get a properly ex-
posed negative if you set the dia-
phragm at FIG and the Shutter speed
at l/1OO of a second. This depends
much on the brightness of the setting
sun. If you have box camera, use a
small lens opening and make snap
shot.
Fascinating moonlight effects can
usually be secured during the sunset
hour when there are masses of clouds
floating in the western sky which
create just the right lighting condi-
tions. The sun can be wholly or par
TALLY obscured and if the light is red,
yellow or orange, snapshot can be
made with a medium lens opening.
To secure true night effect from

negative exposed in this manner, it
must be printed long enough for all
the shadows to be dark and devoid of
detail. If you don't do your own
printing, explain what effect you want
to your fnisher.
Sunset pictures offer wonderful op-
portunities for fascinating compost
ton. A pleasing silhouette effect may
be had if you will have someone stand
slightly to the side of the center of the
picture, apparently viewing the beau
ties of the sun setting behind the
clouds.
Perhaps there are some flowers or
even tall weeds in the foreground.
Don't direct your camera over the top
of them. If necessary, take squatting
position 50 that the tops of the flowers
or weeds are silhouetted against the
sky. Countless suggestions could be
made - but experience will be your
best teacher in sunset snapshooting.

Questions From
Snopshooters

Question: Is ii better to deoelob films
BY inspection or by the time and ten'-
beratnre method? Why9 (W. H. Z)
Answer: Modern films are so SEN
sitive that they are easily logged if
held close enough to safelight lamp
to determine when development is
completed. 1t is better to develop en-
tirely by the time and temperature
method without any light whatever.
Question: What is gained BY using
pola- screen? Can one be purchased
for an amateur camera9 (R. S. d.
Answer Pola-screens have the power
of polarizing light so that the light
vibrations in all directions but one
are cut out. Poia-screens are useful
for subduing reflections from glass or
any non-metallic surface. Also they
are useful for getting dark sky effects
when the suns rays are at an angle
of 80 degrees to the direction in which
the camera is pointed. Pola-screens
can be used on some small still picture
cameras when lens hook is not used.
Your dealer can best advise you.
Question: Is it essential to have az
exposure meter TO take pictures of the
quality that you see hung in the SALONS
Of Photographic IN. G.. K.)
Answer: Correct exposure is neces-
sary for technically good negatives.
However. workers sometimes pur-
posely underexpose or overexpose their
pictures in order to get certain effects.
Some of the best salon pictures are
made in this way. An exposure meter
is not a necessity but is especially
helpful when making pictures under
unusual lighting conditions.

SOIL EROSION
CONTROL PLAN
Is Changing Field Boundaries
or "the Lay of the Land''
For Cultivation
SEEN AS A BENEFIT

Old fence lines, which generally
followed original farm surveys,
roads, or more often the personal
whim of the first owner, often are
rearranged by farmers who are
trying to control soil erosion by
farming with the LAY of the land. "
A recent national survey by the
Soil Conservation Service disclosed
that the farmers cooperating with
the erosion-control agency have
constructed or reallocated approx
imately $4,000 miles of fencing
during the past 3 years. One Of the
most important reasons for chang
ing field boundaries has been the
widespread adoption of contour
cultivation the practice Of run
ming crop rows around sloping
fields instead of up and down the
hillsides - Service officials say.
Farmers also are using fences to
protect new woodlands and wood
lands in which erosion control is
under way from grazing, to keep
livestock out of gullies that are
being stabilized with vegetation,
farm ponds, areas retired to per-
manent grass, and other places on
the farm where trampIing and
over-grazing would lead to acceler-
ated soil erosion.

ADD TWO ACRES
TO PLAZA LAWN
Section South of Legislative
Building, Dover, to Be Add
ed to State House Lawn
DIRECTED BY GREEN

During the past week an addi-
ton of almost two and one-halt
acres were added to the lawns sur
rounding the State House Plaza
at Dover when a tract of lanC
south of the Legislative Building
was planted with grass seed. AL
though the State has owned this
ground since the present State
House Plaza was created some
years ago, it was not added to the
system of lawns until this year.
The work was done under direction
of Warner r. Green, State Custod-
ian, and several weeks were re
quired in plowing, cleaning the
ground of stones and weeks, and
preparing the soil for seeding.
Prof. George L. Schuster, Of the
University Of Delaware staff, made
several tests Of the soil and pre-
pared the formulas for the seed
and fertilizer to be used on the
plot. With the addition of this
new acreage, the State now has
about twenty-five acres of lawn in
the plaza area. Some of the land
now used for lawns will be used
for State buildings in future years.
1t is expected that the WPA will
clean the area adjoining the st.
Jones River, which also adjoins
the newly planted lawn.
