'7uskegee Block May Answer
Problem of Rural Housinq

/, Home Administration has given 1t
wholehearted approval.
Says Mr.. Neal:
The most practical advantage
of the block is its adaptability to
all income levels. The family with
little cash income and few secu-
rites for loan need not be with
out adequate housing. Family
labor can be used for making and
laying the block. Whenever the
money runs out, work can stop
without damaging the materials
until more money is secured"
Mr., Neal adds that "co-opera-
tive housing groups can use the
block to good advantage. A block
field can be built at a centrally
located place, mechanical con-
crete mixer rented and one large
machine can turn out 800 blocks
per hour with crew of IL. In
four-hour work period enough
blocks can be poured to build q
four-room house, The co-opera-
tive group can work advanta.
geously also in constructing the
house"
He pointed out, too, that with
a few hours of instruction and
some supervision, a farmer can dc
all the masonry required on the
walls except building the corners.

TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala,
June 22.-They dream great
dreams here and keep their feet
on the ground. They try to carry
on In the tradition of the late
Booker T. Washington to whom
first things came first-education,
health, housing and jobs.
Over the last 10 years, for ex-
ample. institute officials have been
quietly worrying over the problem
Of rural housing.
They think they've just about
found an answer in q homemade
cement block and concrete house
inclosing 1900 square feet at q
cash cost of about $4,000 and a
lot Of elbow grease.
The success of the "Tuskegee
block" house has led Ernest Neal,
director of the Rural Life Con-
ference, and others to dream an
other dream.
They dream of a day when each
county in the Nation might have
housing agent" even as they
now have agricultural extension
agents.
Farmer Does All Labor.
This agent would give the
farmers the know-how to build a
complete home at a cost no COM
mercial builder could touch for
the simple reason that the farmer
does all his own labor. even to
the making Of the blocks.
The credit for conceiving of the
'"Tuskegee block" goes to institute
president z. D. Patterson who
wondered over the years why it
wouldn't be possible to mix a
little cement with the sand and
gravel found in streams and make
. building material.
In the past 19 months institute
experts have gone to work on the
idea with q right good will. They
developed O block form, worked
out formulas for mixing and then
tested. It worked.
Two Weeks to Season.
The form, which looks like a
lattice work, is soaked in oil, the
cement mixture poured and
tamped. The result is left in the
sun to dry. 1t takes about two
weeks Of seasoning.
Mr.. Neal reports that after one
weeks practice, the average man
can make 100 blocks day and
lay 100 in eight hours.
The only skilled labor required,
Tuskegee found, was in laying the
corners, roofing, wiring and
plumbing.
For q 1900 square foot home,
the institute discovered, $500
blocks are needed and one man
could in about three months, with
the necessary skilled aid, build
himself q completely new home,
virtually flreproof and immune to
rats and mice.
Wins Offlcial Approval.
The block has turned out to be

"boe-KAY" has been admitted as

An idea of the value of birds in
this field may be gained from
studies of what the stomachs OF
birds contain. The stomachs OF

200 cankerWorms.
That is only small example OF
the good which birds do. There are
billions of birds, and each year they
rid the world of millions of bushels
of insects, including many which
are harmful. They also keep dowr
the number of field mice and other
small, furry pests.
Another value of birds comes
from the fact that certain kinds
including vultures-feed on dead
bodies which they find in wild
places. Such birds are, in a sense
the morticians or undertakers OF
the animal world.

Some days ago, IN a book ol
science, read these words:
Specialists estimate that if birds
were to disappear entirely. human
life. too, would vanish in less than
10 years
I can hardly agree with the esti-
mate mentioned in that volume
but I do agree that birds are val
liable friends of men. It is likely
that if the earth had lost all its
birds century ago, there would
be a much smaller human race
today.
How can it be that birds have
anything to do with human lifei
We know that many of them have
pretty feathers and sing pleasing
songs, but in what way could they
change the number of people?
The answer to that question is
found in the insect world. There
are many kinds of harmful insects
and birds help to cut down the
number. Without birds, we should
have a great increase in the num-
ber of insects. Harmful insects
would attack food crops and the
food supply of the human race
would be cut down.

The bidding:
North East South West
l club heart 2NT Pass
3NT Pass Pass Pass
Opening lead, eight of hearts.
Defense is generally regarded as
the most difficult part of the game
of contract, and the phase of de-
tense that seems to provide the
most pitfalls for the average player
is the selection of discards when
declarer is engaged in rattling off
long suit at no-trulnp. The prob
lem thus presented would be con-
siderably simplif1ed if defenders
would acquire the habit of attempt
ing to visualize the hand as a whole,
rather than treating each suit as a
distinct entity. The application of
plain common. sense by West in the
selection of his discards in today's
hand would have saved the game.
South was up against a difficult
choice of bids after East's overcall.
While it is not good policy to make
an immediate jump in no-trump
with but single stopper in the
adverse suit, he disliked to make
the orthodox bid of three clubs for
fear that partner would not have a
heart stopper and would be unable
to try for the shorter game. There
was the further hope that South's
bold front might deter West from
leading heart, particularly if West
happened to be of that vast body
OF players who trust their oppo-
nents rather than their partners.
West opened the eight of hearts
and EaSt'S ten was permitted to
hold. The ace was driven out on
the next trick and declarer peeled
off his five club tricks. Vests first
discard was diamond and his Sec
ond q spade, on the last club he
made the fatal error of letting 90
the small heart. East's discards
were the two Of diamonds, the two
Of spades and then the eight of
diamonds. This was proper pro-
cedure, since it was pointless to
keep the king of diamonds guarded,
inasmuch as 1t was under the de-
clarer. Declarer then led a dia-
mond from dummy. The king was
taken by the ace and the Jack
forced Vests queen. Since he had
no heart to return to partner, de-
clarer could not be prevented from
scoring another diamond trick and
the ace of spades.
West should not have parted with
the communicating card (the two
Of hearts,. He should have had no
reluctance to part with diamond,
retaining the queen and just one
other. He could reach this conclu-
sion by asking himself the follow
ing question: What is it that I
fear?" Surely he need not fear
that declarer had the ace and king
of diamonds, for if that were the
holding, declarer could be counted
for nine tricks, namely, five clubs,
two diamonds, one heart and one
spade. In that case, why fret?

Silas Diller Retires AS Vice-President
OF Allen County Fair Association

Silas Diller. Bluffton merchant
who has served as vice-president Of
the Allen county fair board since
reorganization of the group on ar
expanded basis three years ago, has
declined to run for reelection to the
board of directors.
In presenting his annual report as
vice-president as he attended his
last meeting last Friday night, Dill
ler made several recommendations re-
garding future operations of the
fair.
Pointing out that the first Allen
county fair was held in 1851, Diller
urged the society ITO put this Tooth
anniversary fair on better than ever
by showing the growth and advance
ment of our county's agriculture,
transportation, industry, youth move
ments and government"
He urged that directors begin at
once to set up plans for the exposi-
lIOH IlcAL SuItlIlSIs Shlio iloI W walt
until spring ''to start the ball roll
ing"
Other recommendations of the out
going official included a study of
costs of past fairs to govern budget
plans for the future; appointment
of society members other than di-
rectors to all committees; planting
of trees on the new fairgrounds east
of Lima; immediate planning for at
least one building on the new
grounds, with this being financed in
some manner to be worked out by
the board of directors.
II still believe a tax levy or bond
issue can be passed in Allen county
for fairgrounds" Diller decrared.
But he contended that detailed plans
should be drawn up with a coliseum
type building included in the pro-
ject.
At the close of the session Diller
moved that the promotions commit
tee, which sponsored the recent un-
successful tax levy drive, remain
active and take immediate steps to
promote some type of financing for
improvements to the fairgrounds.
The motion carried.

SOviets Have Been Korean Aggggressors Since May, l946

WASHINGTON (P-Edwin w. Pauley, former special ambassa- dor for the President, told Sena- tors yesterday that the Soviet Union has been a deliberate ag- gressor in Korea as far back as May 28, 1946."
 Pauley testified before the Sen ate armed services committee at a special hearing on Korea.
 Chairman Tydings O.-Md0 in announcing the hearing Wednes- day, had refused to say who the witnesses would be but declared important" testimony on Korea would be received.
 Senators Bridges R.-N. H0 and Knowland R.-Calif0, who had been kept in the dark as to the witnesses names until just before the hearing, told reporters that Pauley was Tydings' mystery witness"
 Pauley, a California oil man, headed U. S. separations mission after the close of World War II. In that capacity. he visited Ko- req to learn what assets the Jap- anese had there. His visit was in May, 1946.
 When Pauley took the stand, Tydings said that he had been asked by the White House and the Pentagon to arrange for Paul. ey's testimony.
 However, in answer to a ques- ton by Senator Lyndon Johnson O.-Texo, Pauley said that his statement reflected only his own views and had not been submitted to any department in advance.
