3. The arguments of British gov.
ernment spokesmen that the jot
of the Atlantic supreme command.
er would be mainly administrative
and that effective operational con.
troll would remain in British hands
undoubtedly caused the American
to have second thoughts.
American naval sources in
Washington last night readily
conceded the accuracy of the
British report that the whole
question of the naval commands
has been thrown open. but were
inclined to doubt that a Brit
ish admiral would be given the
Atlantic command.
(The United States, it was said,
considers the Mediterranean
area more important than the
Atlantic and is pressing for tina
command. However, in the bar
gaining now going on it was be-
leved that assignment of the
Mediterranean to an American
might force watering down of
the powers of the Atlantic COM
mander.)
officials here are frank enough
to admit that the Atlantic pac
planners rather rushed into thu
whole situation without givins
sufficient thought to all its aspects
The United States and Britain are
agreed about these basic consider.
atlons:
An Atlantic high command mus
be set up-even If it is to be il
two parts.
A Mediterranean command mus
be organized to pin down Gen
Eisenhower's southern flank.
It would be politically unwise i

given to Americans.

Possible solutions now bein

in the House in January by the
dispute over procedure, which
ended in abandonment of the
omnibus appropriation bill exper-
Iiment of last year, and a return
to the old system of from ten to
a dozen departmental bills. Chair
man Cannon of the House APP
preparations Committee fought
for the omnibus plan, but found
other House leaders against it.
| The tax bill probably will be
the last and most troublesome
problem of the session. There
were reports yesterday the House
Committee may go back this week
and reconsider the increases
tentatively agreed on ten days
ago in the individual income tax
rate schedule. One report was
! that the committee may try to
graduate the individual increases
between 2 and 4 percentage points
instead of the fiat 3 points added
to each bracket originally.
House Position Better.
Present indications are the
revenue bill will not get through
the House and over to the Senate
before June 10. Chairman George
of the Senate Finance Committee
estimated it will take 80 days to
complete Senate hearings. That
would make it close to mid-July
before the Senate Committee
begins to review House decisions
In the Senate itself debate is
unlimited. BY the end of July the
House probably will be in a posi-
tion to give its members a recess
but whether the Senate gets an
August recess will depend on how
long it discusses the tax bill.
Consideration of some of the
remaining major bills may be
prolonged by the fact that, while
:, the Democrats have numerical
control in both houses, a coalition
of Republicans and Southern
Democrats occasionally takes the
ireins from administration leaders
This has happened several times
this year in the House, and may
happen again, especially or

typhoid fever is gone forever. 1t
is not. There are several cases
in the state today, and investiga-
tons reveal that immunizations
have been neglected.
To keep typhoid under control,
we must - personally and collec-
lively - practice good sanitation,
in addition to keeping up proper
protective immunizations. Sani-
tation, of course, is very impor-
tant. but sanitation alone will not
protect us from typhoid fever. We
must be immunized at proper in
tervals.
It would be too bad for Missis-
sippi to lose the gains it has made
in the control of yellow fever.
After practically no deaths and
very few cases for several years,
the disease now seems to be re-
turning in some counties in the
state. We must continue to do
the things which we have learned
are necessary to control the dis
ease if we are again to become
free and remain so.

Hay
Did you have enough good hay
to feed your cattle this winteri
With most farmers the answer
was no. Are you going to have
enough good hay in the barn next
wear? 1t is the intention of every
farmer in Holmes County to pro-
duce enough hay for his need
About so per cent of the farmers
will carry out their intentions
Are you going to be one of the
so per cent that produces enough
hay to feed next winter or are
you going to continue to pay $50
to $40 per ton for sorry hay pro-
duced some 500 to 1000 miles
from here?
Every cattle producer in
Holmes County should bale OF
stack at least one ton of good
hay for each cow. You cannot
afford to pay $50 to $40 a ton
for hay that you can produce on
YOUR own form for $40 TO Sis
per ton.
Prepare your hay land as soon
as possible. Plant kobe or korean
lespedeza at the rate of 25 to
30 pounds per acre. This should
be planted not later than April
18th. Control weeds during the
summer by clipping it high with
a moving machine. Each acre
should produce one and one-half
to two tons of good hay.
There are thousands of acres of
gold common lespedeza h a t
could be cut for hay every year
by taking a disk and cutting the
top of old rows down so you
could NOW when time comes.
Nearly every farmer has Johnson
grass bottoms that will m k e
hay if cut before seed heads ap-
pear. You can get two to three
good cuttings during the sum-
mer.
Good mixed grass cut while
tender will also help supply your
hay Needs. Don't let another win
Ter catch you as this winter has.
You can't outguess the weather.

That Nature might stand up
And say to all the world,
This was a mani
Shakespeare
No other words could better
describe the life of Isaac c. New
who died of heart attack near
Goodman January II. Mr.. New
had been a member of the Holmes
Junior College faculty for ~
years. He was So.
In May, 1949, Mr.. New and his
family moved to Baton Rouge,
Louisiana. He was attending to
business in Holmes county when
the attack occurred.
A pioneer in education, Mr..
New was the first in his family
to realize the Importance of an
education. After educating him
self, he helped his younger bro
Their and sisters get their train
ing.
Entering Mississippi State on
his own with meager high
school background, he worked his
way through. Steadiness of pur-
pose, deep-rooted ambition and
stubborn determination enabled
him to keep working until he
graduated with a B. S. degree.
He went on to obtain his masters
degree from Peabody College and
to begin work on his Phi. D. at the
University of Chicago.
Original in his teaching me-
thods, Mr.. New stressed indivi-
dual oral tests in teaching. To
interest his students in the sub
ject by unique contests and pro-
jects was his aim. He believed
in outlining the subject thor
oughly was an important step in
learning.
A student must work out his
own problems. Never would he
gain knowledge and wisdom by
merely memorizing the lecture
notes, Mr. New explained.
He was interested in the well
fare of each student. Not only
did he want to help students gain
knowledge; he wanted to give
them on the road to a we'll
moulded character.
Never too busy to help a stu
dent, he would stay after school
and direct them in their studying.
When they needed it. he would
come back at night to coach them.
Students would even come to his
home for help. He never refused
no matter how tired he might
have been.
Mr. New was known and loved
Tn many states because of his as
ISOLATION with students in Missis-
sippi schools for nearly 25 years,
He had worked as science teacher,
coach or principal of high schools
in north central Mississippi. Be
fore coming to Holmes in 1880,
he taught mathematics and sci
ence at Leake Junior College,
Carthage.
When Mr.. New was named head
of the science department at
Holmes, he built up the depart
ment and got it listed as state
accredited. By collecting, CLASH

NAL specimens, he began a mu-
scum in the science department
Before visual education had be-
gun in other Mississippi schools,
he had the best visual aid setup
of any college in the state. He
initiated the system Of renting
books at Holmes as a project OF
the science department.
When the government gave
two buildings to the college af-
ter the war, Mr.. New was made
head contractor because he had
experience in building construc-
ton. He supervised the con-
struction of these buildings on
| the Holmes campus and built two
residences in Goodman.
| He wrote two manuals, one on
chemistry and the other on bo-
tany, and had several articles
| printed in professional journals.
Active in church and civic
! work in Goodman, he sponsored
BTU and YMCA for a number of
years. A member of the Good
man Baptist Church, he was also
a past patron of the Eastern Star
and high in the Masonic order.
A keen mind and independent
spirit marked the character of this
man who was ever striving up
ward. An indefatigable worker,
he h ad immense drive an d
strength. He was always ready
to help tighten the burden of his
| family and friends.
When Mr.. New left Holmes
Junior College in May. 1949, he
left with the following recommen-
dations from members of the
Holmes faculty and Board of
Trustees:
Professor New has been with
Holmes Junior College as head
of the science department for
many years and has built this de-
partment into an outstanding fea-
ture of this institution. He will
be hard to replace. BY his abil
ity and personality, he endeared
himself to the student body and
commanded the admiration and
respect of the faculty and trust
