A Stuck Pig Squeols

One good way to measure the effectivness Of
the Federal Bureau OF Investigations drive on
the Communist fifth column is to consider the
trend of Communist attacks on the bureau In
his annual report for the past fiscal year J. Edgar
Hoover commented on the Increased violence"
of such attacks during the year. While criticism
of the FBI is standard party project the
criticism naturally varies in intensity as the
party and it's members feel the impact of new
FBI moves.
Like stuck pig, the Communist Party had
good reason to squeal during the 12-month
period It was hurt badly, as the section of the
report dealing with security operations shows.
The biggest blow, of course, was the conviction
of the II top Communist leaders composing the
party's high command. The period also brought
the conviction of Judith Coplon and valentin
Gubitchev for espionage and conspiracy to COM
NIT espionage the uncovering of the Fuchs-Gold
spy ring and the conviction of Alger Hiss.
SO the campaign of viliication Of the FBI
was stepped up. The FBI was accused Of thought
control" Of violation of constitutional rights Of
the citizen, of witch-hunting and other police
state tactics and general misconduct. The cam
paign was waged not only through avowed party
spokesmen and publications but insidiously
through dupes and apologists Mr.. Hoover points
out. The FBI director does not worry about the
open attacks but he pays attention to the
camouhaged attacks through the dupes. They
often breed doubts in the minds of good citizens
''For maximum effectiveness" the report
said, "the FBI must have the wholehearted
confidence and cooperation Of every honest
American. When the deliberate distortions of
those with axes to grind are exposed for what
they are, and when sincere misgivings are allayed
by an accurate understanding of FBI policies
powers and methods Of operation, no consci-
entious American viii have any reason to doubt
that the realistic thorougtmess and preparedness
practiced by the FBI are entirely compatible with
a wholesome respect for the civil rights and
liberties of the individual. The FBI is concerned
only with acts, not thoughts; with Deeds not
beliefs" As long as the FRI continues to follow
that creed Of public service, no citizen need fear
Ito operations.

Another Red Trial

Although the cast of characters is different
in Red Hungary's new treason" case, the script
of the play is essentially the same as the one
staged in 1949 when Cardinal Mindszenty was
condemned to life imprisonment.
The "star" this time is Archbishop JOSEF
Groesz, the cardinals successor as prinate OF
the Roman Catholic Church in Hungary. To-
gether with eight other defendants" including
priests and laymen-he has confessed" to hav-
ing plotted with an "imperialistc power" (mean-
ing the United States to bring about the over
throw of the Kremlin's puppet Communist regime
at Budapest. In addition he has pleaded guilty
to spying" for Washington and the Vatican and
to numerous other crimes of the sort aired at
the Mindszenty "trial"
Archbishop Groesz has been confined to Jail
and held incommunicado for a long time Like
Cardinal Mindszenty-and more recently Robert
A. Vogeler who has since been released after
having been sentenced on the strength OF
confession" he has described as pure rubbish
the archbishop and his co-victims undoubtedly
have been subjected to a conditioning process
in preparation for the current trial" Whether
or not 1t has involved the administration of
special drugs, this process has certainly been
made up of mental and physical pressures-a
form of torture that leaves no visible marks on
the iesh-designed to guarantee that the court
room appearance of the defendants" will be
precisely as planned by their Communist tor
mentors
All this has become such familiar part Of
life in the world behind the Iron Curtain that
the average Western mind, while still revolted
by it, has grown almost hardened to the thing.
Apparently, in every other European satellite
land as well as in Hungary, these trials" must
be staged periodically by the Kren1lin's puppets
in order to promote two major ohjectives, among
others: "a To manufacture and intensity fear
and hatred against the United States among
peoples with whom we have had uniquely strong
ties of friendship, and (2) to weaken and II
possible shatter the spiritual links between the
Vatican and those largely Catholic countries
where love of God and fidelity to religion impede
the amoral aims of the Soviet tyranny
In other words, because both the Vatican
and the United States-the chief spiritual and
temporal powers of world in which man is still
regarded as child Of God and not creature
Of hipeds like Stalin-stand In the way OF the
Kremlin's drive to dominate and enslaye the

Big Wheels Drown Out College Grads?
TO the Editor Of The stor::

To the Editor of The Stcr:
r AM issuing q clarion call for q
new society. hard-fighting organd-
Gus evils OF this day and age. June has
shown once again the strangling hold
this vile habit Is gaining on our univer-
stiles and colleges.
The society will be called: A So
ciety for the Return Of Graduation Ex-
ercises to the Graduates.
Surely you, as editor If one Of our
great newspapers. have noted the al
most complete invisibility of the gradu-
ating students at today's graduation
exercises except as long, undulating
snake Of black gowns which. once seated
In front Of the dias, becomes the least
important part Of the scenery.
However, lest there be any doubt
about the matter, have recently con-
Quoted q bit of research. Consider these
facts:
At a recent misnamed and spurious
graduation exercise "stop-watch men,"
were planted In the audience to record
the nefarious proceedings.
The results:
oAAvy-tW dA&a OA4C-Aln4k 1nl1dbC0 WClC
consumed In speechmaking by the presi-
dent. the invited "big-wheel" and by an
unscheduled. added -wheels-who
simply could not sit there, see all those
helpless people and not make a speech.
1t was the crowning blow.
Sixty-five and three-fourthS minutes
were consumed In making honorary doc
tors out Of miscellaneous collection OF
politicians. bankers. lawyers etc.; in
complimenting large group of reserve
officers on getting their commissions
and In handing out certificates of some
kind to the class Of SO years ago.
Nine and one-half minutes were de-
voted-most impatiently-to graduating
the students. themselves. One and one
half minutes to the students of each Of
six schools in the university!
The technique Of this last part Of the
performance would have turned auto
makers purple with jealousy. Talk about
mass production. Voilal
The dean Of each school got up, told
the president that such number of
students were qualified to graduate.
The students stood up.
The president grinned, said: "OK,
you're graduated"

Regional Tronsit Study Needed

Iuere is necQ lOT q JO1Llt STUDY Oh puDuC
transportation facilities in the Washington area
Of the sort proposed in resolution introduced
In the House by Representative Beall of Mary
land. comprehensive overall survey of the
disjointed transit system serving the whole met
ropolitan region is a prerequisite to any serious
attempt to bring about better integration of the
several bus and Streetcar companies now oper-
ating independently. Contributing to the con-
fusion are regulatory orders issued by four diff
ferent public agencies having spheres of juris-
diction in the area. The situation will become
Increasingly acute as Greater Washington con-
tinueS to grow.
At the suggestion of the Arlington County
Public Utilities Commission, Representative Beall
has proposed that Congress direct the Inter-
state Commerce Commission to diagnose the
transportation troubles Of the Washington Met
ropolitan Area and recommend remedies. The
ICC already has before it numerous requests
from governmental and civic bodies for such an
inquiry Among troubles cited by Mr.. Beal were
inequality of fares and discriminatory schedules
in various parts of the District Maryland -Vir-
ginia area at the seat of Government. In some
sections, he pointed out passenger may ride
eight or ten miles on one fare, while in another
section he may have to pay two fares to ride
much shorter distance.
. - Unfortunately, the ICC itself has condoned
discriminatory fares in one case-that involving
fares for Pentagon employees development
which may cast doubt on its ability to view the
whole problem as effectively as it ought to- The
joint-fare arrangement under which Defense De-
partment workers are permitted to pay less than
the established rates for the Capital Transit
Company and two Virginia buslines favors Gov
ernment employees at the expense of other pas
sengers. In this matter, however, the ICC has
endeavored to ameliorate conditions resulting
from the type of conflicting services and juris-
dictions deplored by civic groups in their petit
tions to the ICC.
The Beall measure would have the ICC make
the survey in cooperation with the Virginia
Corporation Commission, the Maryland Public
Service Commission and the District Public Utili-
ties Commission. There already is an encour-
aging degree of cooperation among the Vir-
ginia, Maryland and District agencies, but the
cooperation In the past between these local
bodies and the ICC has been something less than
the nature of the regional problem requires. II
Congress can effect better teamwork among the
four agencies an important step forward viii
have been made. Eventually Metropolitan
Area PUG may be required. Perhaps the ICC
does not have the staff, time or funds to do the
Job proposed by Mr.. Beall In that event Con-
gress either should provide the necessary per-
sonnel and money or consider appointment OF
special committee or commission to undertake
the assignment. The sooner the study is made,
the earlier the prospects of building better-co-
ordinated, more efficient, more satisfactory mass
transportation network for Washington and its
suburbs.

CUMMER-SEEDED legumes and
Ograsses often make better stands
than earlier seedlings with nurse or
companion crops. reports the Middle
West Soil Improvement Committee.
Many Midwestern farmers say
that competition from the nurse crop
weakens the seedlings, making them
vulnerable to midsummer 6routh,
says a statement by the committee.
Alfalfa, clovers and all types of
1egume-grass mixtures are well
suited to summer seeding.
One Of the big advantages is that
weed competition Is eliminated dur
ing the hot summer months when
the soil Is comparatively dry. Weed
seed requires more moisture for
termination than does legume and
grass seed.

New Water Line
Continued from page one)

being briefed on the advantages
of transite pipe and cast iron
pipe, the board decided on the
use of cast iron pipe. The met
hod of purchasing the new pipe
is a matter yet to be worked out
with the Cleveland company.
1t is expected that approx
mately 1000 feet of pipe will be
necessary to lay the new line
over the proposed route.
Mr.. Brown, working in close
cooperation with Mr.. Frye, stated
that several distractions hinder
in the alley right-of-way, and
these must be cleared immediate
ly by the property owners.
To expedite this construction,
Ray Croy previously had made
declaration to the Villages of
Caldwell a section of his pro-
perty which will hereafter be an
established alley. The property
joins Oaklawn avenue and termi-
mates at the alley near the Semon
Dry Cleaning plane.
The distractions in the alley,
it is reported includes gardens,
fences, garages and stock pens.
1t is expected that this operation
will bring necessary action from
the village council and demand
| that general clearing of all
alleys must be made. This, in
all probability will include the
many streets where similar
obstructions are evident.
To facilitate the general water
situation in regard to the re-
quirements listed by the Cleve-
land Graphite Bronze Co., vii
lage officials are endeavoring to
interest the company in provid-
ing additional funds which will
improve the water line running
from the local electric light &
water works plant to the new
line at the intersection of county
road and Oaklawn avenue, near
the Mrs. Jessie Finley property.
This line is feared to be jim q
similar condition, very ''tuber.
cular" as is the old eight line
presently serving Caldwell. This
installation would greatly i'm,
prove the water situation fol
Caldwell and would ultimately
benefit the Cleveland Graphite
Bronze Co. This detail is being
| worked out at the present time
The length of this line is ap
proximately 1000 feet.

Wiley, who is also a trustee of
Sharon township, was arrested
Friday morning in GAINESVILLE by
Detective Robert Smelling and
James McCoid, soon after he bad
left the Whitacre typewriter ex-
change on Main street in that
city.
He had attempted to sell a
typewriter there, Smelling said.
Previously he had disposed one
of the typewriters for $40 at a
second hand store in GAINESVILLE.
The Whitacre agency became
suspicious because the machines
had blank keyboards, of the type
used for instruction purposes.
Police were notified while he
was still at the exchange and
they made the arrest soon after.
Investigation revealed that
both machines had been stolen
from the Forest Grove high
school.
Wiley claimed he was selling
them "for two other men," whose
names he did not know.
A we'll known farmer and poll
tician in Noble county, Wiley
was returned to the Noble coun-
ty Jail in the custody of Sheriff
"Jum" Mckee.
Wiley then appeared before
JP Stellfox, where he entered a
plea of not guilty and was
placed under a $1,000 bond.

Agronomists recommend late July
through mid-August as a good time
to seed the legurnes. A firm seed
bed helps guard against planting the
seed too deep.
Getting the seed in the ground isn't
the whole story, though. You have to
feed the soil so it can feed the crop.
At planting time. Sunmer-seeded
legune grass mixtures need a COM
plete fertilizer carrying nitrogen,
phosphate and potash, plus calcium
and magnesium. Then the plants will
develop a strong crop-feeding root
system and you will get thicker,
leafier topgrowth. The legumes need
lots of phosphate and potash. You
can provide this after they are es.
tablished by top-dressing with COM
mercial fertilizer.
