Arrows Kill Elephants

LEOPOLDVILLE - CP) - HO-
ward Hill, the Wilsonville (Alaba-
maj bow and arrow champion, has
completed a seven month, 10000
mile trip through the Eartern Con-
go, Kenya and Uganda. He was to
shoot the outdoor scenes of a new
semi documentary film on African
wildlife with the probable title of
"TimbO" (SWahii for elephant).
Hill shot all his game with a
bow, a type invented by himself and
consisting of laminated bamboo.
The program of his trip called for
killing of an elephant, a lion, a
leopard. a python, a buffalo. a
rhinOcerOs, a crocodile and a hy-
ena. This program was fully carri-
ed out, and to be sure the operators
wouldn't miss anything, Hill shot
two elephants and lots of crOcodil-
es and hyenas, which are not legal
ly protected.
For a lion or a buffalo, Hill sale
one arrow is enough. He shoot:
mostly from a distance of between
so to 60 yards. The arrow pierce'
the thick and elastic skin of tn,
African elephant. The rinocerOs il
still more vulnerable. Hill shot al
arrow into one rhinO which com
pletely disappeared.
"The animal never knows whenc
the silent arrows strike and gener
ally does not discover the hunte
but flees upwind, while a goo
hunter always sneaks in from dow
the wind" Hill says.

Geiger Counter

A Geiger counter cannot be used
to detect the presence Of lead. The
Geiger counter is used to detect
particles and radiation emitted from
substances like radium and Ordi-
nary lead does not give off these
rays. Lead is found in association
with such radioactive elements, be-
cause the series of elements through
which they decay ends with lead,
as the final, stable form. In such
cases tn e Geiger counter would
show the presence of the radioactive

Sheep Can Make
Farmers A Profit


With the farm-sized sheep flock
making a Comeback" in many
parts of the nation because of a
rising demand for wool, authorities
here today reminded farmers that
sheep require more careful man
agement than most farm animals,
if the owners expect to make a pro-
fit.
An American Foundation for Ami
NAL Health bulletin points out
that parasites are one of the most
serious obstacles to profitable
sheep raising. Correct nutrition
also is highly important in main-
tanning an efficient flock.
The Foundation offered farmers
these four pointers:
% Have all sheep treat e
against parasites in the fall and in
the spring. Newly purchased ami
mails should be treated before al
lowing them to mingle with the
herd.
(2) Practice pasture rotation
this helps hold down heavy para.
site infestation.
(S) Pay special attention to the
feeding of ewes during the winter
The ration should include greer
hay, protein, minerals and grain
This will help prevent disorders a
lambing time.
(4) Avoid letting manure accum
,YIofo IN 1ofc oOd ohodc during I'll,
winter. When spread it shOU Id g
onto fields where animals will no
be rastured.
The Foundation added that NJ
one drug is suitable for u.s.
against all parasites of sheep. l
recommended that sheep raiser
get veterinary assistance in plan
ming control measures and in selec
ton of anti-parasitic chemicals.

TAFT'S REAL OPPONENTS

Suppose for moment that Senator Tafts opponent in
Ohio this fall should be John L. Lewis Is there doubt
any ones mind to what the outcome would be? 1t would
be landslide for Taft. Even Belmont county, think,
would snow Lewis under. Why shouldn't it?
And yet isn't the very thing that Taft Lewis contest
would involve the fundamental issue in the Taft campaign
this year?
If Lewis running against Taft Democrats by the
all do anyhow for Taft victory will be defeat for
Dictator Lewis though he is not candidate, while
of Taft defeat will be the sweetest music this side
of heaven to the of the coal fields
Golfers magazine sees in Tafts candidacy this yeara
national ISSUE Because of this it has departed from it's
traditional policy of not taking sides state politics and
has out with plea for Tafts reelection.
We said months ago in this column that the Taft
pagn this year be American political Armageddon
We told large meeting of down at Wheeling when
Mrs Taft spoke there that what happens to Bob Taft in
Ohio in 1850 West Virginia and other states just
as much it does Ohio
Golfers take the view point 'The
of Ohio will do their country important service by
turning him to the Senate says Golfers editorial
What John L. Lewis doing to this country would
be intensified if he could help bring about the defeat of
the who had the courage to challenge and
the breast of every Senator and Congressman Each would
have to commands of dcators under threat
of getting what Taft got.
Golfers magazine cannot be accused of being Repub-
can journal At times it has seemed somewhat leftish and
New Dealish But it real threat to things vital to
the future of this nation the effort of the labor
defeat Taft
would be far fetched of course and politically unwse
but campaign bboards this fall show the serious
face of Bob Taft and the dark scow of John L. Lewis with
just word Which,? we think it would correctly por-
tray the true issue of the 1850 campaign in Ohio It
certain ye who Tafs ballot opponent will be- but his
real opponents will be John L. Lewis ct al.

yer Plan will be adopted, but ]
would be surprised if any plan
recommended by the President
produces any substantial economy
in present spending. Perhaps the
most publicized battle on economy
will be on ECA, where the diff
ference between the sums pro-
posed will probably exceed a bill
lion dollars.
am very much afraid that
the net results of new taxes and
new appropriations will leave
Mr.. Trumah approximately the
same budget deficit which he
will have in the current year.
cannot conceive of any more
dangerous permanent policy or
one leading more certainly to
economic disaster.
THE third subject which prob
- ably will be dealt with Is that
of civil rights. Over Southern fill
buster, it will be difficult to get
cloture on the FEPC Bill, but
cloture probably can be obtained
on the Anti-Poll Tax and Anti
Lynching Bills. In this field also !
am only guessing, because no def
mite poll has been made.
If consistent with a balanced
budget, I am hopeful that some
steps may be taken to approve in
principle Federal aid to the states
to enable them to do a better job
in the fields of primary and Sec
ondary education and in public
health. Health bills passed by the
Senate and now pending in the
House are those giving aid to
states to enable them to install a
more complete system of child
health inspection and a more COM
plete system of public health units,
as we'll as one providing for a
study of the whole problem of
medical education to provide more
doctors and other health person
mel. l would rather spend money
in these fields than in any too lib
eral dispenSation of funds to
foreign countries.
When Congress has completed
its task, 1 am inclined to think
the Truman Administration will
have to go to the people in
November, 1850, on its program
of a controlled economy and
handOut state with increased
taxes to pay for it. 1t will almost
certainly receive a vote of mo
confidence"
