The eye cannot be depended upon
to ascertain just what direction irri-
cation water will flow She was in
the hay field. 1t seemed she in
variably topped" out the stack be-
fore the field had been cleared.
All this had accomplished the pur-
pose. They had remained out of
debt. For debt, to Ma, was the root
of all evil. 1t tore at and undermined
any foundation. Debt, also, always
called for day of reckoning some
times being paid for in things more
costly than money.
Here again someone had failed.
Our national debt was allowed to
mount higher and higher. In land
so favorable in climate, natural re-
sources and size, it would seem, to
Ma, that these figures at the helm of
our nation must never have perused
the pages of the old agriculture book
and so were never alerted.
Now, as Ma fingered in the yard,
she felt no regrets. She had shirked
no duty. But was this heritage to
be lost? The right to build according
to ones ability to be swallowed up
up in whirlwind of madness?
Ma eyed the drying clothes. If
only the worlds problems could be
treated as effectively.

Handle PoisOns
With Care

PRECAUTIONS against allowing
livestock to eat bait or sprayed veg
citation are the same for aldrin as
those listed for chlordane and tox-
aphene in last years grasshopper
control circular by the USDA bureau
of entomology Also, as with the
other two chemicals, aldrin must be
handled carefully by all operators,
as it is poisonous to men or animals
as well as grasshoppers.
The poisons should be kept off
the skin and away from eyes and
nose. Operators are also cautioned
this year to avoid breathing vapor
fumes or the spray mist. Everyone
concerned with spraying operation
should bathe thoroughly and change
to clean clothing daily after spray
ing or busting. If the spray material
is spilled on skin or clothing, persons
should be required to bathe immedi-
ately with warm water and soap.
]. P. Corkins, assistant state en-
tomologist, says some pilots and
flagmen who were sprayed by aldrin
last year reported nausea and head
aches but there were no cases of
serious effects to personnel among
the five aviation companies handling
spraying on some $4,000 acres of
private lands.
Corkins concludes that there ap-
pears to be no immediate danger to
aircraft operators properly handling
a so percent solution concentrate of
aldrin. He recommends the following
precautions be taken when handling
liquid aldrin preparation in any
form:
1. Use rubber gloves.
2. Avoid inhalation of the fumes.
3. Avoid spilling or splashing the
liquid onto the skin and, if this oc-
ours, have soap and water available
and wash it off Immediately.
Flagmen should not be allowed to
remain under the sprays, and if they
are accidentally sprayed they should
be sent in from the field as soon as
possible and required to take O
shower.

Native Cruciun Wus
In Sunday Nights
Top Flight Picture

The face might have looked
familiar but probably not many
persons who view ed Sunday
nights motion picture "a Song
Is Born" starring Danny Kaye
and Virginia Mayo realized that
there was a Crucian in the cast.
He was Eric Adams, second tenor
in the quartet, and a brother Of
Miss Carlota Adams, who va
cationed here in March.
Mr.. Adams began his radio
career with the Grand Central
Red Caps" at that time he was
an employee of the Pennsylvania
Railroad as a "Redcap" or porter.
When they first appeared on radio
they received no remuneration,
as it was then considered a privi-
lege.
They sang at that time several
numbers at a concert given by the
Board Of Ushers Of the Lutheran
Church of the TRANSPORTATION,
and had the patrons rolling in the
aisles with their version of "Old

Mrs. Hepsibdh Pretto
Chosen Mother of
The Year by League

Mrs. Hepsibah Pretto of Chris
tiansted, was chosen as the re-
preventative Mother of the Year
by the St. Croix Women's League
at its last general meeting.
Mrs. Pretto was one of four
candidates, whose names were
suggested by members of the
League. The other candidates
were Mrs. Evelyn Richards, a
nurse of Frederiksted; Mrs. Leon
ard Larsen of Bethlehem and
Mrs. Ann Eliza Berkeley of Chris
tiansted.
In the selection of candidates
thought is given only to select a
Representative mother" regard
less of the section of the Island
in which they live or their aft
liations.
In the voting for the aforemen-
toned four Mrs. Richards was
barely 'nosed" out by Mrs. Pretto.
1t is just a coincidence that Mrs.
Pretto is a member of the League,

President Truman Assails
Mac Arthur's Policy

President Truman assailed Cen
eral MacArthur's policy in a radio
speech delivered last night at the
Civil Defense Conference held at
the Hotel Statler. He disagreed
with the Generals proposal for
extending the Korean war to
China and warned that such a
course might produce a tremen-
dous Soviet victory by isolating
America and Wrecking the United
Nations.
Another World War will be an
atomic war and many atomic
bombs will be dropped on our
cities causing far more casualties
thar the $3.50 American casual
ties so far reported in Korea. he
said. Mr.. Truman emphasized that
his aim is to prevent the Korean
conflict from spreading into a glo-
bal atomic war.
Launching his own counter-at-
tack against MacArthur's recon-
mendation the President rejected
the suggestion that the United
States attempt to end the war
quickly by sea and air action
against China striking alone, if
necessary. W. do not intend to
fall into the trap. I do not pro-
pose to strip this country of its
allies in the face Of the Soviet
danger, he said. The path Of col
leetive security is our only de-
Tense against the dangers that
threaten us.

Assembly & Governor
Nedrer to Agreement
On Orgdnic Act

The Governor and the Legisla-
tive Assembly conferred again
yesterday afternoon in an effort
to narrow the area of differences
regarding the proposed Organic
Act, with a view to presenting a
unified approach to Congress.
In this spirit, the Governor
stated that he would withdraw
his objection to two separate cleo
toral districts in st. Croix, even
though he still believes that three
Islands districts would be better.
He also stated that he would Of
fer no objection to a reasonable
specified annual salary for legis-
lators, provided the membership
of the legislature is reduced from
16 members to 10 or IL. In this
way the economy objective which
he seeks will be obtained.
The Governor proposed reduc-
ton of regular sessions from 90 to
60 days, and also proposed the eli
mination of a Legislative Council
and suggested in its stead separ-
ate Legislative Committees for
budget, health, and other special
lied areas Of government.
Serious objections were made
by the Governor to the election
of the Lieutenant Governor for
st. Croix. He pointed out that in
this case the Lieutenant Governor
might not be responsive to the
Governors direction. He also OBJ
jected to the elimination of the
position of Government Secre-
tary, pointing out that every state
must have a state secretary or ex-
ecutive secretary with duties de-
fined by statute.
Finally, the Governor pointed
out that as the Organic Act might
not become law until 1852, the
election of a single legislature
may well have to be in 1854 in
stead of 1852.

 From what we hear radios and read in news papers today in this country you would think that the Russians had no fear, problems; that the Red Chinese were one of the most devastating and powerful forces the world has ever known"
 There's something to think about here. Obviously, we ought not to underestimate the enemy Obviously we ought to prepare ntelligently and vigorously for known dangers But there is no excuse for America, the heathes richest, strongest country in the world GO become the victim of hyserical fear. The record of Americans, from Concord and Lexington all the way down to Inchon and Wonju, should be enough to keep us from hiding under the bed when the men of the Kremlin frown.

HUGE MOUNTED BROWN
 BEAR PRESENTED U. A.

MT. and Mrs. J. Watson Webb, well-known big game hunters of New York City and Vermont, have presented the University of Alaska Museum with a huge mounted brown bear killed by Arthur John7 son in 1850 at Herrenden Bay, near Port Moller on the Bering Sea side of the Alaska Peninsula. The anil nal, a near-record bear, was noun ted in an upright position by Jonas Brothers Denver, Colorado, and stands nearly 10 feet tai.
 Alaska Brown bears, although generally referred to as Kodiak bears, are found on the coastal slopes of the mainland and most of the larger islands from the Alas ka Peninsula east to British Col umbia. Some of the largest trophies, including the record bear killed in 1948 by Bob Reeve of Anchorage and presented to the University of Alaska in 1949, have come from the Alaska Peninsula.

How Pattern Gets Sc;

Thus the pattern was set. And it's important to remember that, when the man at the top sets pattern, you can't blame the people below Tor following it. For instance:
 Cue No. 3-Shortly after becom- ing vice president, Harry Truman flew to Kansas City in an army plane to attend the funeral of boss Tom Pendergast, the man who made him Senator and later served a prison term for taking bribes from insurance companies. Reading about this trip in the newspapers some said: Harry is loyal friend Others took the cue that what the party bosses did was what they could do.
 Cue No. 4-After Harry Truman became President. just about his first official act was to fire the U. & Attorney in Kansas City Maurice Milligan, who had sent Tom Pendergast to jail. This deep- enc conviction on the part of peo. l below that the cue oi the nistration was not to detect c. to protect crim- inals.
 Cue No. 5-Next Truman fired Francis Riddle, the attorney Gen. ral who had steadfas-ly refused to fire MilHgan as U. s. Atto-ney 1T --ansas City. Riddle maintained at the man who had the courage

Su5ordinates Follow Suit

With these cues tackled on the public horizon for all the world to see, it is not hard to understand why subordinates followed suit. It is not hard to understand how $9,- GOO mink coats were sported by White House stenographers; why airplane routes were juggled by friends of Pan American and Northwest airlines; why Donald Dawson pulled loans out of the REC hat for his friends.
 Nor is it hard to understand why certain big income-tax cases, such as the Guaranty Finance Company of Los Angeles and Midwest Petro- leum, were smoothed over; nor why a prominent executive of Internal negenue has been seen in the com .,any ot Frankie costello; nor why costello has never been deported.

ARE YOU JITTERY?

It is a fact that in cities of America people are moving their valuables to out-of-the-way towns are selling off properties in vulnerable areas and buying in places less likely to be bombed It IS 1act that Americans are being counseled not to take the risk of arming their allies for fear this would pro- yoke Joe Stain's anger. It is fact that Amerca as whole is more jttery about the danger o1 war than the peoples of Western Europe, who are on the firing line and not 900 miles away, says the Cincinnati Enquirer.
 In his column in the New York Journal -Amerl- can, Bill Corum suggests, very sensbly that we come out from under the bed and act like Americans we are behaving hysterically and fooshy, he says about something that hasn't happened yet ana may never happen though we were coming to the end of the world" And he cites good bit o1 eVl- dence to show how fooshly great many Americans ara actinp-vctims not of real danger but of their own hysterical fears.

Alaska Articles Misleading
(Ketchikan News)

There should be a stop-block for boom articles abolt Alaska These attracting to the Territory workingmen and others, many of whom nave ony their passage money.
 For instance in the Chicago Tribune, only one of many instances appears story under an Anchorage datelne We quote the introduction as follows:
 Grocery clerks start at wage of Sl0o week. plus overtime, in Anchorage.
 common laborers can expect to make Sle250 a week this summer Taxicab drivers have poor month when they take in than 5000 Restaurant walt expect to find dollar bills 50 cent pieces under the saucers of their coffee and sandwich customers
 Alaska is booming it never did in the gold !ush days The easy money now comes from defense pay rolls There's still gold to be banned In the creeKs and beaches but few people have the tune to iooK for it. Tips are more certain than nuggets.
 Among others, the Alaska Development Board in it's propaganda has neglected to warn people apainst coming to Alaska unless they are property financed.
 Our Chambers of Commerce and other organlnza- lions should combat and try and reutralize this boom talk"

 Friendships vs. Honesty
 Other significant cues followed 7
 Cue No. 6-The Presidents per- sonal physician, Brig. Gen. Wallace Graham, got caught speculating in commodities at time when it was decidedly against public policy to speculate. Sitting right inside the White House, seeing the President daily, he saw nothing wrong with using his inside knowledge of gov- ernment food purchases to gamble in food futures at the public's ex- pense Instead of being penallzed, Graham eventually was promoted. Naturally, the public realized that he knew and understood the PreSl- dent well.
 Cue No. 7-Another close friend of the President, Maj. Gen. Harry Vaughn, also was loyal to his friends. His friends gave him deep freezes and he pulled wires in re- turn. Vaughn even pulled wires to get precious building materials for the Tanforan race track at a time when veterans homes were desper- ately needed and when he was White House adviser on veterans affairs. lie also wrote letters aimed at helping friends get valuable war contracts and surplus materia which netted them millions. Wher all this was published, the public was shocked, but not the President He hurled names at those Wh( criticised his military aide.
 Cue No. 8-For three years, des- pite periodic exposures in the press a semi underworld character named John Maragon occupied privileged position in and around the Whit, House, was able to pull wires ant denote generals. Though Maragoi was finaly convicted of lying ant sent to Jail, the White House neve uttered one word of criticism o this friend"
