New Disease Hits
u. S. Swine Herds

CHICAGO-tRi A strange new
disease for which no cure has
yet been found has spread rapidly
through many of the nations best
hog raising states, the American
Veterinary Medical Association
said today.
The disease makes pigs sneeze
and gives their faces a "dished
in' look by causing certain facial
bones to disintegrate.
The disease, infectious atrophic
rhinitis, was almost unheard of
several years ago. The AVMA
said it now is becoming a serious
menace to the nations swine in
dustry. It added a statement:
Young animals are its principal
victims, though it may strike
swine of any age. 1t eats away
profits by stopping growth and
generally making a herd unthrif-
ty, with pneumonia sometimes oc-
curing as a complication
Control measures include the
careful purchase of breeding stock
50 as to avoid bringing carriers
into the herd. AS an additional
precaution, the new purchases
should be kept in quarantine for
a few weeks. Sows and their pigs
should be earmarked identically
so the trouble can be traced If
it shows up"
The AVMA said veterinarians in
the q. S. and Canada are seek
ing better methods of controlling
and treating outbreaks.

BY James NARROW


WASHINGTON-tPl- A hardy
little band of senators, armed
with good intentions, set out to
explore a strange and shadowy
land called "ethics in govern
ment."
It's a land where, behind the
scenes, there are bobby traps
like cocktail parties; some of the
natives shouldn't but do accept
favors for favors granted; threats
are made; and the laW can &c
bent without breaking.
The senators are 1coking for a
special kind of medicine ethi-
cal standards, they call it
which can be used to strengthen
the moral backbone of those who
work for the government or do
business with it.
This unusual journey began in
the head of Senator Fulbright,
Arkansas Democrat, some months
ago when he was digging into the
doings of the RFC, the reconstruc-
tion Finance Corporation.
On March 27 he got up on the
senate floor, making speech
and a suggestion: In making this
suggestion l am quite prepared
to be dubbed naive. 1t will not
be the first time to expect or
even hope for an improvement in
the moral climate of Washington
is, in the eyes of the boys who
know. l am sure, thoroughly uto-
pian."
He suggested Congress create
a commission Of prominent Cit
liens to study and make recon-
mendations code of ethics
for improvement in the moral
standards of members of Con-
gress, those who work in govern
ment departments, and people
doing business with Congress OF
the departments.
Congress, which has never
shown enthusiasm for outside
suggestions on how to improve it
self, received with something less
than cheers the Fulbright sug-
gestion that a commission of out
siders could prescribe a mora
code for Congress.
But the idea landed in the lar
of the Senate's labor committed
which then told a subcommittee
headed by Senator Douglas
Illinois Democrat to look intC
the suggestion. Douglass LITTLE
+ group has started to WORK.
For about Is days it will lister
to the views of 20 or Is promin
ent men on whether they thinl
there's truly need for such ;
commission and code of conduct
Then it will be up to the subcom
mittee to decide whether it think
the idea is good
But even If the subcommittee
approves. the commission can't bl
set up unless the full Labor Com
mittee and then both houses o
Congress approved. So creation 0
the commission, if it ever /
created. is still quite a distane
away. IN the end Congress ma.
say "Uh. Huh and forget tn
whole thing.
Douglas, though. is IN FIJI
sympathy with Fulbrigkt's think
ing on this. In the end. any ced

OAR Flag Day Celebration
At The Red Brick Tauern

Miss Kaiser pictured Indians as
the original Americans with an
cient culture and traditions, in
telligence and skills. which lifted
them to a high plane far removed
from the savages typified in the
ordinary historical and western
movies.
For many years American In
dians has been a major OAR COM
mittee, interested in education and
legislation. Ohio alone has given
nearly $1,000 to assist in work
among the red men and help chill
dren in orphanages and a dental
clinic, and aided young men and
women by granting scholarships
to those worthy of financial as
sistance.
So much of the legislation has
been unjust and unfair to the In
dians who are seeking to nave one
of their own race represent tGem
in Washington; one who UNDER
stands the plight and needs of the
original Americans. Corruption
and graft have been rampant in
the treatment of the Indians,
many having been wrongly de-
prived of their lands, forced to
live in abject poverty, denied nee
essities and the means of earning
livelihoods. seeing their children
in squalor, without proper food,
clothing or educational facilities.
The 10000 men and women,
with at least one sixteenth Indian
blood, comprise the National Con-
gress of American Indians seek
ing to improve their lot and pro-
pose laws helpful to their con-
ditions. They are trying to hire
their own Indian counsel and have
privileges entitled to them ac-
cording to the Bill of Rights.
The Commissioner of Indian Af-
fairs has refused to see delega-
tions, such as The Standing Rock
Sioux and many tribes have been
deprived of funds rightfully theirs.
Pressure has been brought upon
the Secretary of the Intelio 10
see that Commissioner Dillon Ny
er acts justly in his dealings with
Tie natives.
The speaker insisted that IN
dians should be allowed &c Keep
tneir tribal lands under the Alas
kan Statehood Bill and mentioned
the difficulties involved in this
act.
The problems of the Navaios,
one of the best known tribes, were
cited in detail; their low incomes,
high rate of illiteracy, lack of
sanitary facilities, hospitals and
good roads, poor land for ssubsis-
tence and dependence on sheep
raising, arts and crafts for live
llno0dS.
Miss Kaiser ended her talk with
an eloquent plea for the interests
of the displaced people in our
own country first and the welfare
and advancement of the rod men,
whose well-being is SO close to her
heart.
With group singing Of America,
another successful observance of
Flag Day was brought to a close.

The former Put-in-Bay makor,
Henry Fox, who held Office for "a
years and was born on the island,
related that many people have oc-
casion to do business at the court
house, which requires perhaps
only a few minutes. when we
used to have to go to Sandusky,
it would take two days to do five
minutes business; now we can do
the same business and be back
home in couple of hours" He
said he would greatly fear loss of
the Hersberger service, because
before he started serving us, we
never knew that we could get
wonderful hospital service in Port
Clinton. We didn't know that
there were efficient mortuaries
there, because we always had to
go into Erie county. Now all
emergency cases and deaths are
cared for in Port Clinton"

hospital attaches and local flu
