KEEP FREE
OF GREASE

A. P. writes: "I am running the
waste from my kitchen sink into a
pit dug in the ground about 8 feet
in diameter and Z feet deep and
walled up with loose stones. Can
you tell me what chemical I could
use to destroy the grease or how
I can prevent it from clogging up
the cesspool?"
The only practicable way to keep
the grease in your sink waste from
clogging your cesspool is to run it
through a grease trap before it goes
into the cesspool. The warm grease
rises to the surface into a heavy
scum, while the nongrease. liquid
passes at the bottom into another
compartment and then flows out.
The grease must be SKINNED off
when it collects into too heavy a
scum and usually is hauled out
with the n or may be made
into soap with I've.
The grease trap may be a two
chamber cast-iron trap to be placed
under the sink, or a concrete one
built in the ground outside the wall
such as is shown in Farmers Bulle-
tin 1850, Sewage and Garbage Dis
posal on the Farm" U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture.

SELF LIFTING GATE

When pushed back to open, it lifts
out of snow, and drops back when
closed. The gate is built mainly of
heavy hog fencing, while the frame
is of 2 by As with a 1 by 6-inch
brace. The roller is a short piece of
M-inch pipe on a k-inch rod or bolt
well fabricated with cup grease"

practical idea where snow gives

The Quaker organization-winner Of the
Nobel Peace Prize in 1947-has not been
unmindful of these things, and 1t has
therefore been at pains to emphasize that
its program is purely suggestive in nature,
submitted in the belief that war with
Russia is not inevitable, that wise states
manship can prevent it. The belief is
sound enough, and If only by stimulating
a discussion of agreement possibilities the
Quakers are rendering a useful service in
proposing ways to bridge the EastWest
gulf. But we ought not to confuse the
theoretical or the desirable or, the idealstic
with the hard conditions of the world
The central fact before us is that those
conditions are not likely to change for
the better until the Kremlin itself changes
for the better. The initiative in that sense
is not up to us.

Make the Report Public

An unofficial summary OF an Army IN
spection teams diagnosis OF local caoeC
troubles casts serious reflections on school
administration of the cadet program. In
the public interest and in justice to scnool
officials accused of "lack of interest" In the
Washington High School Cadet Corps tne
full official Army report should De maoe
public.
Superintendent of Schools Corning
already has entered categorical oenlai
of allegations contained in summary
, of the report privately given to Repre-
f, sentative league, Democrat, OF Iexas'
a war veteran who has shown commend
. able interest in the efforts to revive the
sagging cadet corps. The summary at
! tributed to Dr. Corning defeatist ATTITUDE
! toward these efforts and charged tnat
some school administrators evidenced
negative" attitude.
This is not the first time that school
authorities have been accused OF cadet
apathy. There undoubtedly has been some
basis in the past for feeling by cadets
and friends of the corps that some prln-
cipals and perhaps higher officials were
Indifferent to the welfare of the corps.
This feeling that the cadets were being
neglected in favor of sports, physical train
ing and other activities has grown as the
strength of the corps-and its morale
have declined Football, baseball and
track have been "glamorized" with the help
of school authorities and physical educa-
ton has been made compulsory course.
But the boys in the cadets still must drill
on their own time, after school hours,
under part-time instructors, with no credit
allowed for physical training. A cadet
must take physical training the same as
noncadets. .s. - : cid.
In fairness to the hoard sof Education
and to Dr. Corning, II should be pointed.oat
that studies have been made and are zstAl
being made to find the reasons for the
decline of the cadet corps in numbers and
popularity. The inquiries were stepped up
recently as a. resultmof@ the sad showing
made by most of the companies IN the
annual competitive drill. Tech failed to
muster enough cadets to compete and sew
eral other schools had to merge companies
in order to enter. If Army inspectors have
succeeded in finding the causes OF corps
deterioration, their report should provide
basis for prompt corrective action. Partial,
unofficial summaries are not satisfactory
substitute for the full story, as seen from
the Army viewpoint.

Time Lost in Court

The problem of trying to reduce the
time spent in court by policemen is not an
easy one to solve Police Chief Barrett,
in asking for q conference with Municipal
Court judges on the problem, admitted that
he did not know the answer to 1t. The
study which he has made shows that the
total amount of time lost In court by
policemen who otherwise could be patrol
ing their beats is large enough at times to
hamper seriously the work OF the de-
partment.
Major Barretts special study was made
on July II, which fell on Monday. Monday
is an unusually bad day for police at court.
Chief Judge Barse points out that Monday
Is drunk and disorderly" day, when week
end celebrants are brought in to answer
for their misconduct. The drunk" docket
usually is congested on Mondays, which
means extra burdens for the judges as
well as the complaining witnesses. The
latter usually include the policemen who
made the arrests. On July II total of
1873 police officers spent more than 473
hours In court. The minimum stay was
an hour and a quarter, the maximum
six and half hours. The police force
on that day was deprived of the equivalent
of twenty-five man-days of service. Since
the force already is short of its authorized
strength, such losses as this are a seri-
Gus matter.
Chief Judge Barse says he does not see
how the handling Of Monday drunks can be
speeded up beyond the present production
line rate, unless the court is given more
judges. incidentally, the Municipal Court
would be given three additional judges
under a bill pending in the House. Per-
haps, in the meantime it would be feasible
to work out some system for scheduling
cases in a way that will minimize the wait
ing period for policemen
