Usually a group of farmers band

of the final arrangements. The over

The Reverend Luce looked about

of the Gods in new light, and an
idea was born. He talked to other

operation. The first annual Easter
sunrise service was held.
This year, in a church fashioned
more than a million years ago by
nature, thousands of worshipers will
gather for the 25th annual Easter
sunrise service. AS the first shafts
of sunlight are reflected from snow
capped Pixies Peak, a choir of $50
will lift their voices in a song that
reverberates from pinnacle to pin
nacle among the red rocks and
spires.
There will be 10000 or more peo-
pie in the Garden of the Gods on
Easter morning, but millions more
will hear the service in their homes,
for it is carried over a nationwide
radio hookup.
Near the monumental cathedral
spires, three crosses have been
erected. Here will stand the trum-
peters who call the assembly to wor-
ship. A few hundred yards away,
at the base of South Gateway rock,
which is more than 300 feet high,
the services will be held.
The service again will be predom-
inantly musical with the tones of an
electric organ providing the back
ground. A 250-voice capella choir
from Colorado Springs will feature
the program. Traditional with the
service is the well known tenor, Ber-
nard Vessey, who will sing Knapp's
'Open the Gates of the Temple"
During the past Is years, millions
of people have attended the sunrise
service. They have faced the giant
rocks and listened to the choir in
natures great auditorium, acous-
tically one of the most perfect.
All plans for the Easter sunrise
service in the Garden of the Gods
are handled by the Colorado Springs
ministerial alliance.

War Souvenirs
To Take Lives
For Iona Time

GREELEY, COLO. - Guns and
other souvenir weapons brought
back to their homes by G.1.s will
be killing United States citizens for
the next 20 years, G. E. Damon of
Colorado state college of education
believes. Damon is firearms
expert.
Basing his prediction on studies
he has conducted on souvenir
enemy weapons, Damon believes the
average Americans lack of knowl-
edge of dangerous weapons and
carelessness with firearms will take
many lives in the future.
Recently a 14-year-old boy came
to Damon with shotgun and asked
how to open it. The boys father had
given him the gun but had neglect
ed to instruct the lad in its use.
One of the most dangerous weap-
ons is also one of the most popu-
lar to come from Europe. 1t is the
Walther P-38 pistol. The army has
records of many hundreds of cases
of wounds inflicted on the person
who uses the pistol, Damon said.
The locking Tugs in Japanese
rifles are made of metal that is
too soft in some cases and too brit
tie in others, he said. They can't
stand much strain and consequently
are dangerous even if handled by
experts" Under no conditions
should American made ammuni-
ton be used in captured arms.
The best way to insure safety is
to keep enemy weapons only as
souvenirs and, in most cases, never
use them. he said.

Shortage Of FaIm
Labor Unknown TO
Big Hurvey Falnily

Western Maryland claims one
of Americas biggest farming
families and points to Mr.. and
Mrs. Earl K. Harvey Sr., and
their II children, 9 boys and 2
girls. While others complained
about a farm labor shortage the
past few years, the Harveys
went right on producing record
crops on their 180-acre farm.
The eldest of the children is Mar
shall Harvey, now Is, who served
in the army. AS lad he helped form
a All club and is now assistant
supervisor"
Next is Lucille, %, who was active
in the All club until she reached the
age limit of 81. She is now married,
but still helps to hoe the Harvey
potatoes.
Then there is Calvin, who gradu-
ated from the All club when he
reached the age of 81 last January.
Selective service classified him &c,
giving him an agricultural workers
deferment. He and his father super

forte. Recently the University of
Maryland experimental station, CO.
operating with the United States de-
partment of agriculture, developed
new potato in Garrett county. At
elaborate ceremonies here, it was
christened the Potomac" and
Fanny Mae did the christening.
Then comes Freddie, II. Besides
being president of the Harvey All
club" at nearby North Glade, where
the farm is located, he is president
of the Future Farmers of America
chapter at Oakland high school.
"But this is not because of num-
bers alone" he pointed out.
Then there is Earl Jr., 16, also an
exuberant agriculturist, All men,
Der, and student at Oakland high
school.
Next comes Robert, IA. Robert
bought a All club calf, nursed it
along, took it to the Pittsburgh live
stock show with Joseph Steger, as
sistant county agent, recently. and
came away with fourth prize. He
was competing with boys and girls
from Ohio, West Virginia, Pennsyl-
vania and Maryland.
Ernest, the "4-H Baby"
Then there is Guy, 10. Not to be
outdone by Robert, Guy also raised
a calf and took it to the Pittsburgh
show. It weighed $40 pounds, cap
tured sixth place in the lightweight
class, and was bought on the spot
at 26 cents pound. Guy figured he
cleared "about $780, on the transac-
ton, while Robert made Sl19 profit.
Then there is Ernest. Ernest is 10,
which is just old enough for him to
be called the "4-H baby" He is
studying agriculture and the why's
and wherefores of cattle during
school hours, like Freddie, Earl Jr.,
Robert and Guy, and before them
Marshall, Calvin, Lucille and Fanny
Mae.
And then there is Arthur, who is
eight. Arthur definitely leans toward
potatoes. He took it very hard when
much of the Harvey crop froze in
the ground last year.
And then the bottom rung of this
farming ladder is Douglas. Douglas
is three and has yet to prove him
self, but it was indicated that he is
a natural pea-sheller. An appren-
tice by birth, he expects to grow by
example and observation.

A Really Noble Experiment

In an ideal society, where every
one loved his neighbor as himself,
mans hand would be turned against
ragWeed and early in the summer of
every year the good neighborS would
be out with Scythe and sickle ridding
vacant lots and roadsideS of that
ubiquitous plant. For it is ragWeed
pollen which causes hay fever for
most Of the victims Of that annual
curse, and from about this time in
August until the first frost the pol
len from ragWeed fills the air We
breathe.
In lieu Of practicing good neigh
borS there is an ordinance which
makes property owners responsible
for controlling weeds. But it is not
enforceable-at least it is not en-
forced. Ragweed f1ouriSheS every
where, especially in vacant Io;s,
sending out its invisible emissaries
to poison the air and add discomfort
and actual suffering to many thou
sands Of good citizens.
This condition has always existed
and, presumably, always will-except
for the hope which has been created
In the minds of hayfever victims by
the progressive action of New York
Clty'S health commissioner. After
an apparently futile effort to inter
est people in destroying ragWeed
wherever they found it, he has en-
listed the support of the city's De-
partment of Sanitation. Big trucks
have been going around spraying
vacant lots with the new weed -AilI-
ing chemical, 2,4D. With the park
authorities doing the same thing in
the parks, it may be that ragweed
pollen will be noticeably reduced in
New York this fall That is the
health commissioners hope, at least.
Here in Washington the Office of
National Capital Parks has been
using the weed-killer spray for some
years, and is using it now extern
sively. William A. Xanten. supervi-
sor of city refuse, has come forward
with the sensible suggestion that
some of the Sewer Departments
spraying equipment, used now for
spraying DOT in sewer catch basins.
together with the equipment used to
spray the trees, might be pooled
against ragWeed. The chemical is
not expensive and is becoming more
available. 1t is too late to do any,
thing effective this year, but next
Spring-eSpecially if New York's ex-
pertinent produces favorable results
1t would be fine thing for the
city to launch a real blitz on rag
weed, nipping it before it buds. The
pollen would still float in from
Maryland and Virginia, of course,
But that is another bridge, to be
crossed when we get to it.

Bog-Down at Poris

over procedural matters, the Paris
Peace Conference begins its third
week still begged down in the same
moraSS Of teChnicalitieS, with no
assurance as to when it will begin its
designated function-direct consid-
Grafton Of the proposed peace trea-
ties for Italy and the four minor
Axis satellite states
Such waste motion would be re-
grettable enough under any circum-
stances. 1t becomes doubly so when
1t is remembered that pressing
tlme-tactor exists in the shape of
the forthcoming session of the Cen
eral Assembly of the United Nations.
The date for that gathering has
already been retarded from it's orig
lnal schedule early in September to
the third week in that month. But,
at the present rate, it is difficult to
imagine that the Paris conference
Will have completed the business on
its agenda by that time.
IhlS poses an important alterna-
tive. Should the Paris conference
remain in session even though it
might overlap with the convening
OF the U. N. Assembly in New York,
or should the conference adjourn
during the Assembly session, resum-
ing It's deliberations in a second
session later on?
from a purely technical aspect,
there are valid arguments in favor
OF adJourning the conference. The
General Assembly has important
tasks Of worldwide significance
which should be undertaken without
further delay; while the prestige of
U. N. is also involved. Also, an over
tapping Of the two gatherings would
presumably mean the absence of
outstanding personages from either
one or the other.
Yet such considerations are coun-
tered by the political consequences
winch an adjournment of the Paris
conference might entail It has be-
come obvious that Soviet Russia is
deliberately dragging out the con-
terence by filibustering tactics. Mos

IN the air that a forcible solution might
be sought by the Yugoslavs of the prob
lem Of Trieste. While the Council of
Foreign Ministers was subsequently, able
to reach agreement on the general out
lines OF Trieste settlement, many de-
tails remain to be worked out by the
conference now sitting here This is
one OF the many problems of the world
in which a settlement must be imposed
by international decision which will not
be wholly satisfactory to either side
1t is all very we'll to say that set
tlement agreed to and presumably
guaranteed by the Big -Four, does not
need an Italian Army to support it.
But the sight of a defenSelesS frontier
might prove more than Yugoslav am
bition could resist; there might come
upon Marshal Tito the thought that if
he took violent action and confronted
the world with fait accompi. he might
get away with it. He might even hope
for Russian diplomatic support in at
tempting to evade the natural conse-
quences of such an act and in retain
ing his loot.
The YugoSlaVs have none of the ter
rible modern weapons of mass destruc-
ton. They have only a small air force
and small navy, But they do have
a large ground army-probably as many
as 100000 men under arms. This is far
more than they need for security pur-
poses and indeed is a grave strain on
their economic structure. This army
is five times as strong, in proportion to
Yugoslavia'S Balkan neighbors-Ro-
mania, Bulgaria and Hungary. So when
the drafters allow Italy an army Of
250,000 men, they are certainly not
providing any excessive force for the
local defense of frontiers
Let me emphasize that the American
object is not to take sides in a fight,
but to prevent fight. The object is
to prevent the upsetting of interna-
tional agreements by force, or rather to
reduce the temptation to try to do so.
1t seems to most Americans here in
Paris that one of the best ways of pre-
venting future trouble in the Trieste
area is to bring about a condition of
local military stability which will offer
little opportunity to either side to
seek forcible readjustment.
