Still Time For
Spi++lebug Spray

Many farmers have already
sprayed for spittle bug control in
their hay fields, according to John
Moore, County Agricultural Agent.
There is still time to do an effec-
tive job up until the second week
of May, according to DR.. T. Fl.
Parks, Extension Entomologist.
The cold weather the last few
weeks did not kill what few spittle
bugs were already hatched, and
certainly did not effect the ones
still in the egg stage. Spraying for
spittle bug also kills clover leaf
weevils and alfalfa aphids with a
material cost per acre of around
$100, where BHC or Txaphene are
used.

4 OUR
"a 6[fK6&WN
PRISON

on riots and general dissatis-
faction by persons in our penal
institutions was graphically
reported during recent broad
casts on the N.B.C. network.
Seems that one of the tough
est obstacles for prison auth
critics to overcome is the real
inequality of original sentenc-
es set down in our many and
varied courts throughout the
land. For instance, it was
brought out that in one case a
man was found to be serving a
five year sentence for stealing
a pig while another, who had
cheated the government out of
100000 in income taxes, was
doing a four month stretch!
This would bear out the stat
ed need for a more uniform
prison code throughout the
us.
Prisoners are people and un-
derstand things in the same
way we all do. Surely man
can adjust himself to serving
a sentence provided it is just
but it would be hard thing
to serve time for any offense
while another serves a lesser
time for a greater offense.
Two other "gripes" by in
mates of our institutions were
poorly prepared food and un-
fit guards. Without these three
things, say the best penal
authorities in America, we
could eliminate prison riots.

Eternity FiImBanned
By Navy, but Army
Approves II for GIs
By the Associated Press

The Navy has banned From
Here to Eternity" from its movie
screens because it considers the
film "derogatory to a sister serv-
ice," the Army. But the Army
apparently finds the picture OK.
Members of the Army-Air
Force Motion Picture Board
have approved the movie and
booked it for showings to Amer
lean soldiers and airmen around
the world.
From Here to Eternity" is a
realistic account of Army life at
Schofield Barracks in Hawaii
Just before World War II. Part
of it was filmed at the barracks
with Army cooperation. At the
Army'S request, however. Colum-
bia Pictures is distributing the
film without any acknowledge
ment of Army help in its pro-
duction.
The Navy motion picture ex-

change usually does the censor
ing job for the Navy and Marine
Corps. But in this case a group
of adfniralS attended private
showing of the picture before
deciding to turn thumbs down
on it. 1t could not be learned
whether there was any liaison
between the Navy and the Army
on the matter.
Another new movie, THE
Moon Is Blue" has been banned
by all the armed forces. It is
a modern romance, noted for
the frankness of it's dialogue.
The Catholic League of De-
cency has taken a stand against
the picture, and service spokes-
men said it is standing policy
to reject any movie which Of
tends a racial or religious group.
