Keeping IN Touch Witb Washington
Border to Open Sept. !
To Mexican Cattle

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The south
ern border of the United States will
be opened to imports of cattle and
other livestock Sept. /, but the north
ern border will remain closed indef-
initely.
Mexico has gone about year
and half since the last outbreak
Of foot-and- mouth disease. Of
ficials say. They assume. there
fore, that the disease has been
eradicated south Of the border.
A joint u. S.-Mexican commission
met in Washington at the beginning
of August to iron out details for con-
tinued inspection in Mexico when
the embargo is lifted, and final de-
tails on border control of incoming
stock. All animals coming into this
country from Mexico will go through
various designated Texas check
points where they will get thorough
health tests.
But in Canada, the situation is diff
ferent. While the Canadians have
not had an outbreak of the dread dis
ease since May, there's no telling at
this time when the border will be
re-opened.
DR.. B. T. Simms, head of the Bu-
reau Of Animal Industry, says that
the USDA has mot even discussed
the matter" He indicated, however,
that probably the border would be
continued closed through the rest of
this year at least.

FORECASTS cR1MpED

The drouth of 1852 has put a
big cri1np into glowing early
forecasts of agricultural produc-
tion this year.
Almost a dozen southern and east
ern states have been named disaster
areas for emergency loans and other
federal aid. BY the end of July more
than $5OO,0OO,OOO worth of farm pro-
duction was lost to the drouth. But
the critical month of August was
just beginning, and farmers and gov
ernment officials were wondering
what further damage would come.
But despite the drouth, officials
here see little danger of a major ma
tional shortage of feed grain in the
next IL months. This years crop is
expected to top 3,OO0,OO0,00O bushels
by considerable margin. Hay crops
are just slightly below the 1851 rec
ord high.

OPPOSE LAB SIZE

The present emergency has
spurred official determination to
get the national foot-andmouth
disease laboratory under way as
soon as possible. Officials say
that the research center will
work not only on foot-and-mouth
disease, but other similar dis
eases such as vesicular examine
ma and vesicular stomatitis.
Plans now are proceeding to build
the $10,000,000 laboratory on Plum
Island, off Long Island, New York.
Hearings have been held in the area.
But some officials fear that opposi-
ton to the lab may soon erupt in a
big way At the hearing, 25 percent
of the people attending were re-
ported in opposition to construction
of the lab on Plum Island.
And information coming to Wash
ington indicates that growing opposi-
ton may eventually take the case to
court. Persons living in the vicinity
of the proposed laboratory are fear
full the disease might be carried from
the center into nearby herds.
Even without further delay, Of
ficials say it would take eight months
to get work on construction under
way. And under favorable condi-
tions, the lab might be open for
business within two years.

pRoTEcT cRop VALUES

Federal farm officials in Wash
ington have come up with new
slogan for the campaign to in
crease storage of wheat and other
crops. They call the campaign
drive to project crop values"
The plan is to get more farmers to
store their wheat with the idea Of
selling later when prices rise season
ally. The officials explain that farm
ers who sell their crops right after
harvest are in effect destroying crop
values by taking the lowest prices of
the marketing season.
Farmers who accept prices below
the loan levels, these officials reason,
are doing a disfavor to their COM
munities as well as to themselves.
For, the officials say, by taking less
for their crops than they could, they
keep more money from flowing into
the trade Of their particular COM
munities.
So the drive is on: To encourage
more storage, greater use of the CCC
loan, and increased protection of the
crop values.

INDUSTRY VULNERABLE

While the foot-and-mouth
disease keeps hammering al our
doors. trying TO get in. danger
Gus disease similar to foot-and-
mouth has already come. That.
of course. is vesicular exanthema.
The great speed with which vesi-
cular exanthema spread serves to
underscore how vulnerable the live
stock industry is to a virulent dis
ease, officials point out. For 20 years
the disease has been known in Cali
fornia. Then, suddenly, it has spread
to is other states.
Vascular exanthema is strictly
hog disease, although its symptoms
and results are closely akin to those
of foot-and- mouth. One official says
that the rapid spread of vascular
exanthema can be taken as an ex-
ample of how quickly foot-and-
mouth could spread once it got
foot-hold in the u. S. Foot-and-
mouth disease attacks not only hogs
but cattle and all other c1oven-
hoofed animals.
The slaughter and indemnity pro-
gram undertaken by the agriculture
department and the states concerned
is the most drastic action that can
be taken in the current national
emergency. 1t points up the very
deep concern here in Washington
about the possible effects should the
disease get out of hand.
Officials here advise farmers in
states where the disease has not
shown up to get in touch with the
nearest government official, state or
federal, or veterinarian, to find out
how to protect themselves against
the disease, and steps to. be taken if
it does come.
Meanwhile, officials say farmers
should prevent anyone or anything
from entering their farms which has
come from possible infected area.
Also, farmers should boil garbage
before it is fed to hogs. Contami-
mated garbage is believed to be the
spreading agent.

row into mud, and there they stay
until the ground begins to warm
up in the early spring.
?Sometime after they crawl out
into the sun, the female lays from
two to four small, white eggs and
covers them with sand. After
about eighty days, the eggs hatch
into young.
Like their parents, the babies are
black, and they have yellow spots.
AS they grow older, they get more
of the bright polka dots-both on
their shells and on their legs and
tails. When fully grown, they have
shells which are about five inches
long, three inches wide, and a little
more than an inch high.
Though they are abundant over a
wide area, Spotted Turtles neither
help nor harm man. They are SIM
ply shy little creatures which are
interesting to find and watch, and
perhaps keep as pets.

ARM SIGNALS
SAFETY AID
Safety Council Herd Lists Ten
Important Mo.ol Manners
for Courteou9 Driving
USE CORRECT SIGNALS

"Are you using the arm signals
for stops and turn correctly?'
That is the question Ernest H.
Hawkins, a member of the Board
of Directors and past-president of
the Delaware Safety Council asked
yesterday of the Delaware drivers.
Some cars are equipped with di-
rectional signals which are operat-
ed by the driver. If your car does
not have these devices be sure to
give signals by extending your arm
well out of the car window. All
signals should be given at least 100
feet before you turn, but such sig
mails should not be given while you
are actually making the turn"
1.-THE left turn signal" Mr.. Haw-
kins said, SHOULD also be used in
pulling away from parking space
parallel to a curb on heavily tray
eled streets and in moving over to
the left to overtake and to pass an
other car"
The slow signal is the arm out
and down palm back. The right
turn signal is arm out, extended
upward. Your motor manners are
important. Mr.. Hawkins said,
'Don't leave your manners at the
table. Too many drivers do that. :"
Mr.. Hawkins lists ten important
motor manners that we should all
try to make part of our every day
habits.
1. Give correct arm signals for
lane changes, turns, and stops.
2. Obey speed laws.
3. Stop completely at stop signs.
4. Drives in and turns from prop
aer lane.
5. Observe passing regulations
and no-passing zones.
6. Yield right of way to pedes-
TRANS and also observe midblock
cross zones.
z. Stop when approaching stand
ing school buses until safe to pro-
coed.
8. Exercise special caution at
railway grade crossings.
9. Refuse to drive after drinking.
10. Drive defensively anticipate
what other drivers and pedestrians
may do.
"The driver who can observe all
these rules" Mr.. Hawkins said, "is
not only a polite but safe driver,
because these 10 rules involve
courtesy as much as caution.

The American Heart Association
has a booklet describing the Heart
Kitchen. This kitchen was devel-
oped at a New York hospital by a
committee of the New York Heart
Associations Committee on Cardio-
vascular Diseases in Industry. The
committee was headed by DR.. Lii
liam Gilbreth whom we all know as
the mother in the book, Cheaper
BY the Dozen.
Must 1 wait until 1 have heart
trouble to have a kitchen like
that ?" This question came to the
engineers over and over. The heart
kitchen had nothing revolutionary
in its construction. It's advantages
could be adapted to most any
kitchen and there are few rooms
that cannot absorb at least part of
them. The reasons for arrange
ments like this for heart patient
are to save energy and in saving
energy We can often avoid strain
which may be dangerous.
zone of the easiest ways to save
energy is to use your body proper
ly'', the book explains on page one
and then explains how most of us
need to be trained to do this. 1t
seems we have a penchant for do
ing things the hard way.
Good posture is explained and en-
couraged. Good posture for stand
ing, sitting and walking upstairs is
emphasized as a means of saving
energy. "a relaxed graceful walk
takes less energy, according to
the story.
We have always contended the
easy way is the efficient way. AL
ditional points of this book will be
reviewed in this column next week.

For someone who wants hard
shelled pet, a Spotted Turtle is just
the thing. 1t is easy to handle, be-
cause it doesn't bite or snap. At
feeding time it will eat bits of raw
meat and fish and tender morsels of
lettuce.
While it doesn't stay in water all
the time, it should have a small
tank, tub, or basin in which to sub
merge. 1t especially like to be I'M
der water when eating. 1t seems
to swallow better if its food is
dropped on the surface, so it can
reach up and take bites.
With good care, Spotted Turtle
should live for long time. The

National Wildlife Federation re-
ports that some of the black-shell-
ed creatures have reached the age
of forty.
They are fairly easy to find.
There are lots of them all the way
from Maine to Florida, and west to
Indiana and Michigan. The place
to look for them is in small pools
and ponds, in woods near streams,
and in grassy marshes. They al
ways stay close to water and to
patches of plants where they can
hide.
Sometimes they get together in
groups on a sunny bank or a float
ing log. But at the slightest dis
turbance, they tumble and dive into
the water. There they bury them
selves in the mud or hide under an
overhanging bank until they think
all danger is past.
If there isn't time to get into the
water, they pull into their shells.
So long as they are being handled
or touched, they keep their heads,
legs, and short, pointed tails under
cover.
When left alone, they spend
much of their time looking for
food. In the outdoors, where there
is no one to feed them, they eat
beetles, flies, dragon-fiies, worms,
slugs, spiders, and tadpoles.
Along about November each
year, the Spotted Turtles go into
hiding for the winter. They bur-
