little fellows and it is q shame
to rob the cradle.

Fresh water anglers have been
having ther ups and downs be-
cause of local storms muddying
the waters of different localities.
At this season, it is impossible to
predict f1shable water, except in
ponds and lakes. Even Virginia's
trout streams, which still are open
to angling outside the National
Parks areas, have been subject to
freshets which have spoiled ang-
ling for the large numbers of fine
brooks and rainbows still to be
had by those with the know-how.
incidentally. we have a ruling
from Mack Hart of Virginia's
Commission of Game and Inland
Fisheries on the Rapidan and the
Conway. Mack says that except
for a stretch of privately owned
land Grew Lumber Co.. in the
Park Area on the Rapidan that is
opened to public fishing, the rest
of the trout area Is considered in
the Park and closed to fishing.
That part Of the Conway in the
Park also is closed. In fishing
either of these streams, one
should be absolutely sure of where
he is. otherwise one Is subject to
arrest and fine by the Park
rangers. State wardens have no

1t would appear now that the
duck stamp bill, S-1076, increas-
ing the cost of the stamp from 81
to 50 will soon be the law Of the
land. The bill is now up to the
White House. The additional
funds provided by this bill will be
of tremendous assistance to the
Fish and Wildlife Service in car
rying out its program for refugees
and protection Of wild waterfowl.
Conservationists all over the United
States will have real cause for
celebrating when 1t finally be-
comes the law.
The Dingell Bill, providing Fed
eral aid to State fishery projects
passed the House August l and
has been sent to the Senate. 1t Is
a companion measure to the Pitt
Robertson Act which pro-
vides aid for State game restora-
ton. Wen tell you more about 1t
later.

Tuesday by Maryland's Game and

regulations, fell through for lack

DR.. Rutland 10 Explain
Negro Screening Plan
Al Session Thursday

Health Officer George c. Ruh-
land will confer at 10 am. Thurs
day at the Health Department
with Negro clergymen and press
representatives to explain his sug-
gestion last week for screening of
colored people who plan to move
to Washington.
He told the commissioners last
Wednesday that such screening
might be advisable to determine
whether colored people intending
to come here might be "a drug
on the market"
He said today he called the
Thursday conference because OF
several letters and telephone calls
from both white and colored resi-
dents attacking or praising his
statement.
Declaring that considerable
misunderstanding has developed
among the colored clergymen. he
explained he spoke in the interests
of public health and elimination
of slum conditions. Racial con-
siderations did not prompt his
suggestion, he said.
The possible screening pro-
cedure could apply to whites as
we'll as colored people, DR.. Ruh-
land said today. An immediate
need is for an educational cam
paign to be conducted by colored
as we'll as white groups to focus
attention on the health menace
of slums and help lessen those
dangers.
The health problem in slums
here is so great that the Health
Department needs the aid Of COM
munity groups and citizens. he
said.
Noting that colored clergy of the
District could assist in the effort,
especially from an educational
standpoint. he expressed surprise
at the stand he said has been
taken by some OF them who ap-
parently do. not appreciate the
health problems involved.
Besides the clergmen. others in
vited to the conference are DR..
Paul Cornely of Howard Univer-
sity, Executive Officer John Ihlder
of the National Capital Housing
Authority. and William H. Cary.
jr.. director of the Bureau of SAM

Noting that this year is the
200th anniversary OF Goethe's
birth, DR.. Fucker observed this

memorating the event.
Despite Goethe's aristocratic
views, 1t is as a friend TO life
that democratic Europe claims
him as its own" DR.. Mann
declared.
"On the surface" he said,
there is Overwhelming evidence
of his antagonism to democracy,
political and moral-an antag-
onism. however. which is again
rooted in his positive attitude
toward life. in his natural self
reliance as a favorite of the gods,
