Truman Urges Statehood For
 Alaska, Hawaii

WASHINGTON, (P)-President Truman today urged congress for the fourth time to grant state hood to Alaska and Hawaii
 He said it is the duty of the elected representatives of the peo- pie" to let these and other civil rights proposals come to a vote.
 The delegates to congress from Hawaii and Alaska expressed qualification that the president specifically called for statehood for the two territories in his an nual state of the union message.
 Twice before, president Tru- man has made similar specific ap- peaIs in messages opening a new session Of congress. In February. -1946, he called for statehood for Hawaii and Alaska in a spec.a. message on civil rights legislation.
 Last year, the presidcn, urged enactment of his complete civil rights program, without specific mention of statehood.
 The presidents appea. today was made in these words.

Congress To Turn Thumbs Down On Truman Proposals

WASHINGTON, CP)-Congres- sional leaders responded to Pres ident Truman's State-of-the-Union message today by turning thumbs down on half dozen of his legis- lative proposals-including more taxes.
 Important members in both par ties were quick to froWn on the moderate" tax increase asked by MT. Truman at the outset of a Congressional election year.
 Instead, they emphasized re- duced spending. Failing sharp economies in a budget expected to exceed 42,1OO,OOO,OOO, the gov ernment presumably would con- tinue red ink spending.
 Similarly, Congress members in a position to act said in about as many words that the Presidents appeals for continuation of the military draft, Taft-Hartley re- peal, the Brannan farm plan, med ical insurance and the St. Law renee SeaWay will go on the shelf for this session.
 There was an apparently clear road for CD expansionOf social se- curity COverage and benefits and @ continuation - on a reduced scale-of economic and military

Truman, On His Own, Says "Hands Off" In FOrmOsa

Continued from Page One) ing of the National Security Coun- cil last Thursday at which a gen. eral policy to this effect evidently was agreed upon by the chief ex- ecutive and his top foreign policy and military advisers,
 The joint chiefs of staff have taken the position that Formosa while an important place, is not of sufficient strategic value to Amer ican defenses in the Western Pa cific to warrant involving Ameri can forces in it's defense.
 Last week, the joint chiefs sug- gested that the administration send a military mission to Formosa but MT. Truman's statement made clear that he has no such intention.
 MT. Truman's announcement brought a near-solid wave of an gry comment from Congressional Republicanh They promised not to give up the fight for aid to For moSa.
 The debate cracked on the Sen ate floor for more than five hours yesterday. One chief complaint was: The President ignored Con gress and the bipartisan foreign policy in reaching his decision.
 Present United States economic aid to the Chinese on FOrmOsa, which MT. Truman mentioned, consists mainly of furnishing such basic materials as fertilizer to the Formosan people.
 In the light of MT. Truman's stand, about the only thing the Chinese can do if they want Amer ican arms and advice is to hire American military men on a per sonal basis and use their own funds to buy American arms.
 Actually, state department off cials see very little chance that Chiang and his forces will be able to hold Formosa for very long. The consider very great the dan ger of an internal breakdown, opening the door to communist conquest.

 Lawmakers Jumped in the doubtful category the presidential expansion of displaced persons admissions, aid to education and the point four" program of econ omic help for the worlds back ward areas.
 They gave even less chance of passage to an international trade organization resolution and the presidents civil rights program.
 In his mildly -phrased message, the president didn't expand his flair dear but asked for action only on things he has talked about before.
 Republicans met this immedi- ately with a scorching statement, signed by 100 House COP mem bers, accusing the President of committing himself ito the event. ual socialization Of America and the elimination of the traditional American competitive system.
 Senator Taft of Ohio, who heads inc Senate COP policy commit tie, said MT. Truman's mildness reminded him of Byron's uota- ton: The miIdest manner'd man that ever scuttled a ship or cut a throat"

Too Much Si|oge, Not Enough Hay
Likely to Lower Milk Production

1000 pounds live weight of cow
daily.
The amount of silage fed a COW
daily should be determined by the
weight of the animal. Usually,
when good hay is fed with silage,
the COW will eat about three
pounds of silage and one pound of
hay daily per 100 pounds body
weight.
When the rate of silage is reg
ulated to three pounds daily per
100 pounds of COW, the hay con-
sumption may increase as much
as two pounds per 100 pounds
daily.
The officials explained that the
greater amounts of good quality
legume consumed by the COW. the
greater is the animals intake of
protein, minerals and vitamin D.
Sun-cured hay is richer in vita
min D, which Is the vitamin which
aids in the utilization of minerals
in the cows body.

I am about to tackle the pines
in the back field, and for that pur-
pose I have one Of the most lethal
weapons ever invented.
It is called a brush saw. 1t has
handles like a garden tractor, and
in front there is a round saw that
revolves. I am assured that 1t
will cut off pines an inch from the
ground, and that 1t also will per-
form amputations If the operator
does not use proper precautions.
When I get my back field all
clean and nice, I am going to
dedicate it to Don Niklason, one
of my fellow workers at The Star
to whom I am indebted for the use
Of the saw.
Don has a place in Fairfax
County. He had gotten the saw
to clear some of his own land, and
since it wasn't in use, decided that
I could try it out.
It looks like I am going to have
lots of fun before I get all Of the
pines down. I'm taking applica-
tions now, and will charge only a
small fee to anyone who would
like to come out and play with my
saw. Sort of a Tom Sawyer
"Whitewash" act.
Tweed Howser was out the other
day with his peach branch pros
pecting for underground water. I
didn' know it, but Tweed, it seems,
has the power" He can take a
forked peach branch and it will
tell him exactly where to dig a
good well.
Tweed didn't have much luck
the other day. however. The
peach stick just didn't seem to
work. I think it was because of
the weather. He tried after a
heavy rain, and there was so much
water about that the peach stick
was confused.
Tweed said he would give me a
proper demonstration just as soon
as the ground dried up bit.
I'm thinking of inventing a
mud shoe. 1t would be some
thing like a snowshoe and would
be great assistance In getting
around my barn lot.
The winter mud has come a
little early this year, and. from
the present outlook, 1t probably
will be knee deep by midwinter.

Gifts for the Gardener
Dormant Plants, Bulbs, Yard Gudgets
Are Among Practical Christmas Presents

age, but a really while gift
should be one that will thrive in
the modern home. where the air
is likely to be both warm and dry.
Should the garden be used as
an outdoor living room, or at
least a place where the family
can enjoy shade and flowers, out
door furniture may be a desired
gift. The metal, tile and glass
covered durable equipment now
available should be a welcome gift
for such families. Charcoal g1ills
and other accessories for out
door picnics are other gifts which
are practicable.
The bird lover always has spot
for a bird house or feeder. Some
of the new feeders are both dur
able and serviceable. Those that
are squirrel-proofed should be
given preference for the friend
living in the wooded area. If the
bird feeder can be located close to
window where the birds may be
observed it will give the recipient
considerable pleasure during the
winter months.
Garden magazines and books
are always popular and there are
a great many to choose from.
Some are more technical than
others and this fact should be
noted in making the selection.
Most gardeners like to have some
handy reference book where an
swerS can be quickly obtained.
However, there are others who
prefer the material to be inter-
estingly written. All the informa-
ton should be useful in this area
if it is to have its maximum use
fulneSS.
This list of suggestions of gifts
for the gardener could be greatly
expanded without even mention
ing the traditional plant gifts
cyclamen, poinsettia, Jerusalem
cherry. etc. However. it is long
enough to serve the purpose-just
some suggestions to help the
shopper please his friend the
gardener.

Jardinieres are useful contain
ers for flower pots but they can
lead to loss Of plants If neglected.
Because the jardiniere does not
permit moisture to seep through
the walls or drain away 1t must be
frequently inspected to note the
depth of the water. That part Of
a flower pot sitting in water is
likely to contain only dead roots.
TO avoid this sitaution place some
material on the bottom Of the

cess moisture to drain out Of the

Dogs
By Peter Boees
Department Photo.

A minor cough can often be
cured by the simple method of
removing a dogs collar. It has
been found that some dogs will
develop a minor chronic cough
apparently from the pressure of a
collar around his throat. OF
course, am going to suggest first
that you remove his collar in favor
of harness for the time being.
If you are feeding a litter of
young puppies, I believe it is wiser
to feed the dogs from individual
dishes rather than all together
cut of one large pan.
Each puppy has a distinct in
dividuality and the bullies of the
litter will often get most of the
food If only one pan is used.
Feeding In this manner also has
a tendency to further the fighting
instincts of some puppies. It is
practical to afford all dogs their
own individual eating dishes.
Many dog owners who kennel
their dogs in pens with either
wood or cement runways often
wonder why their dogs have weak
or splayed feet. To develop a
compact and firmly held foot, a
dog must tread on rough ground.
Crushed stone or pebbles scattered
about the kennel yard or exer-
cising pen will make it necessary
for the dog to keep his toes to-
gether. and will also develop a
better balance in his gait.
Recently a reader wrote in tell
ing me that her neighbor claimed
owning a most remarkable dog:
he could actually tell time and
do other mathematical problems.
giving the answers by a series of
sharp barks. She wanted to know
whether the dog could actually
do these things or If it was some
kind of trick.
With little time and patience
almost any dog can be taught to
count. tell the time of day. day
of the month or how old so-and-
so is. and to answer other such
questions. How is it done? The
dog is first taught to bark or
speak" at a given signal, and to
stop barking when another signal
is given. The signal may be a
move of the finger, tap of the foot,
turn of the head, or any number
Of other signs.
@. With cold weather now here
is there anything special that I
should feed my dog?-D. J. c.
A. I might suggest that you add
a tablespoonful of cod liver oil
to your dogs main meal every
other day or so.
@. Would you advise buying a
dog as Christmas gift for our
4-year-old son, or is he too young
for a dog?J. L.
A. BY all means give your son
a dog. It will afford the whole
family many years of pleasure.
Dogs make ideal Christmas gifts
for a child Of any age.
