PLAIN TALK.
MR.. PORTS EYES
BY ALFRED SEGAL

Recently in my daily newspaper
column I had the poignant story
of Mr.. Paul Ports eyes. MIR. Port
was Jewish gentleman of our
town. He. seeing the hour of his
death not far off. had willed his
eyes TO others whose falling sight
could use the corneas.
Mr.. Port died in our Jewish
Hospital early in the morning of
a Sunday and at 2 a. m. an eye
doctor was there to take Mr..
Ports eyes for the purpose of
transplanting their corneas to liv-
ing eyes.
Mr.. Ports eyes were divided
between two other men. In the
afternoon of the same day in
emergency operation in Catholic
ST. Mary Hospital. each of Mr..
PORTS eyes went to one of these
two.
His eyes had seen some terrible
things in the world. Mr.. Port was
of Vienna at the Hitler time. He
had managed to get out of there,
finally had come to America, had
made a good life here. He and his
wife jeanette were accountants
and when in his last months he
considered his estate, he counted
his eyes in among the items. He
didn't provide that only some
other Jew might have them. Any
body who needed to see would
be welcome to them. So Mr.. Ports
eyes went to couple of men who
weren't Jews at all at st. Mary's.
When Mrs. Sue Ranshoff read
the piece I had written about Mr..
PORTS eyes she came to philoso-
phical idea. It was reported TO
me by her husband Jerry who is
a newspaper colleague of mine.
She exclaimed: "Will these two
people see differently now that
they have portions of Mr.. Ports
eyes?" What she meant was a
hope that through Mr.. Ports eyes
they might inherit a bit of the
Jewish way of looking at things;
and that means a good way of life
which a man can discover with
well-meaning, searching eyes.
Of course. any eye doctor will
tell me that the possession Of a
Jews eyes can't make the least
difference in spiritual or moral
outlook. Eyes. they will say. are
strictly physical and you. Segal.
are just too romantic when you
attribute a philosophical connee-
hon to the eyes Of Jew.
But doctors really don't know
everything and I am all set to
dispute with them on this issue.
Take it from me: A Jews ewes
should be able to see farther than
other eyes. Properly trained and
focused they can see as far as
Sinai, and even unto the time OF
Abraham who, primitive man
though he was, was compassion
r ate enough to pray God to forgive
the wickedness of Sodom if only
ten righteous people could be
found in the city.
What I mean is that a Jews
eyes should see with the compass
sion of Abraham and the justice
of Moses at Sinai. That is not TO
say that all Jewish eyes can see

grisly and grotesque task for me-

relish it very much. get greater
thrill out of finding a beautiful
quartz or quartzite arrowhead way
down in some deep river bottom
corn field-the arrow almost beg

an astounding thought to me when

human hand has touched this tiny
stone for maybe a couple of thou

Indian used the axe for the same
reasons we use the modern steel
axe-it was not used (as is COM
monty thought) as a weapon-it
was a utility tool. The celt (toma-
hawk or hatchet) was the Indians

potent and lethal weapon. His bow
and arrows were his gun; his bone
fishhooks he used in the exact way
we use our modern snelled ones. He
kept warm by fire as we do, and he
ate much of the same sort of food
that we eat today. He was the
originator of corn or maize, he
grew and smoked tobacco before
we ever knew it existed. His ways
were, of course, uncouth and
strictly primitive, but he was far
from being uncultured. To him
self-preservation was the first law
of nature-a cardinal principle.
His clothing was woefully made
quate, his housing poor, his medi-
cine we could almost discount as
nil and of no account. His average
life span was only % years, what
with the blizzards of those long
gone days and the other innumer-
able privations he had to put up
with. Yet, with it all, he has left
behind him some beautiful manifes-
tations of a culture which is lost
culture, never to be achieved again,
in his beautiful artifacts.
l do not think there is a finer
hobby than Indian artifact collect
ing. You do not have to go to the
Court House and buy a license to
indulge in this fine, clean, outdoor
activity. Few farmers object to
you tramping over their plowed
fields in your searches. You will
be careful not to tread on their
corn, and you will forswear their
growing wheat fields. 1t is quite
a thrill to find these interesting be-
longings of the Indian; they are
quite nice to show to your friends,

RED CROSS GIFTS

In response to an appeal to
business firms to contribute either
funds or material to help complete
the new Montgomery County Red
Cross Building, at 2O2O East-West
Highway, Silver Spring, three
business firms answered the call
this week.
The E. G. Schafer and Company,
wholesale plumbing and heating
supplies, of Silver Spring, and the
Thomas Somerville Company, of
Washington, D. c., contributed
plumbing fixtures; and the holland
Company, of Washington, D. c.,
contributed funds.
1t is hoped that other business
firms will want to help provide
facilities that are urgently needed,
chapter officials said.

Sanitation Important
In Farm Fly Control

Farmers who face the problem
of successfully controlling insecti-
eide resistant flies this summer
must rely on sanitary measures
supplemented with chemicals, ac-
cording to entomologists at the
University of Maryland.
A thorough farm cleanup that
destroys fly breeding areas greatly
reduces fly abundance. Tight
screens on doors and windows pro-
vide protection against flies COM
ing in from other breeding areas.
Where feasible, the University en-
tomologists urge community wide
sanitation programs for best re-
suits against this summer time
pest.
Where flies have not yet devel-
oped insecticide resistance, the use
of DDT, benzene hexjachloride, CT
lindane on both the inside and out
side surfaces of livestock buildings
still gives the most satisfactory
chemical control, according to the
entomologists. However, they warn
that DOT and BHC should not be
used inside dairy barns. The inside
of a dairy barn may be sprayed
with lindane or methoxchlor.
Chlordane may be used as spray

resting picture over which almost
everyone exclaims in wonder and
admiration.

INDIAN RELICS OF
MONTGOMERY COUNTY

Early Indian artifacts were once
1 designated as "Thunderbolts Of
God" The Renaissance era gave
forth the prolix explanation that
these stones were made from "an
ladmixture of certain exhalation
Iof thunder and lightning, together
with metallic matter, chiefly in
dark clouds which is coagulated by
the circumfused moisture and con-
Sglutinated heat like a brick" This
meticulous and rather garrulous
description of how artifacts came
into being was made by Michele
Mercate about the beginning of the
17th century when he also said
tfThey have been broken off from
hard fiints by violent BLOWN
the days before iron was employed
for the follies of war" This is a
much better explanation and cer-
tainly true one. The Spaniards,
exploring America, found the In
dians making arrow and spear
heads, celts and grooved axes using
bone tools which are, incidently,
today also classed as artifacts
themselves.
Ever since l was a boy l have
been vastly intrigued with the life
Of the pre-history Indian. The
modern Indian l have found un-
Interesting, and of not much con-
Sequence. have found the In

them along small streams snear

all of the Potomac's tributaries. |

mac River islands, and they exist
in rather great profusion along the
Potomac in nearby Virginia. Pres

located. There | have found, on
the surface alone, as many as 100
of the Indians beautiful artifacts
in a single day. ! estimate, that
at one time, more than 1000 In
dians made their home in this area,
violently disagreeing with the his
torian who states that the number
was only 250. This historian GER
tainly did not takel into considera-
tion the numbers of Indians who
had died there. The enormous pro-
fusion of chips and cobbles, char
coal from camp fires and frag-
mentary pottery on the surface, in
dicate clearly to me that a very
considerable number of Indians
had lived there, No one, as yet, has

for livestock building surfaces but
not in dairy barns or milk rooms.
Sanitation to prevent excessive fly
breeding must be practiced to ex-
pect satisfactory results with in
secticides.
Livestockmen, particularly
dairymen, should not overlook syn
ergized pyrethrum and allethrin
sprays and aerosols, the netomolo-
gists say. These insecticides are
effective in controlling both resist
ant and non-resistant flies. They
can be used in milk rooms and
barns that are not too open SO
that the space spray will remain
in the structure and not be diluted
by the movement of air currents
into and out of the barn. Both
pyrethrum and allethrin sprays
quickly lose their fly killing ability
and must be renewed each day as
they are needed.
Last summer the University en-
tomoligists conducted tests which
showed a new insecticide, mala-
thon, to be of value in killing re-
sistant flies. They suggest that
farmers having trouble with flies
try it. Good tiy-kill may be OBJ
tanned. 1t is not recommended FIR
use inside dairy barns, but may
be used outside the dairy barns,
or in other barns housing livestock
and other places where the flies
alight.

4th-Quarter Orders
For Steel Reported
Falling Off Slightly
BY the Associoted Press

CLEV E LAND, Aug. "a
Orders for fourth quarter deliv-
cry Of steel are falling off some
what, Steel the Woodworking
weekly, noted yesterday, but that
doesn't necessarily forecast a
sharp cut in steel construction. +"
The magazine suggested some
consumers might be holding off
on orders because of steel's
greater availability now than
during fourth quarters of re-
cent years.
It listed five factors that
might influence steel consumers:
Steel said:
Il. The war emergency has
faded away.
20. Steel producing capacity
has increased.
''3. Demand that accumulated
for goods during World War II
and the Korean war has been
satisfied.
q. The end of the Korean
war inspired an increase in
caution among businessmen.
IS. The pipelines of steel dis
tribution are filling up"
At one time. Steel said, it was
normal for steel producers to
receive orders only a short time
before delivery.
The weekly said producers of
steel plates and structural
shapes for the construction
trade have comfortable back
logs of orders, the exceptions
being maiIy among the smaller
shops where competition for
business is keenest."
But wire. it said. continues in
easy supply as it has for some
time, and pig iron demand,
which has been tagging, may slip
further as result of a recent
General Motors fire at Livonia.
Mich.
producers of tn plate also
are experiencing lull.
Steel reported that output for
ingots and castings during the
week ended August % held
steady at SO per cent of rated
capacity.

Stocks Renew Slide;
Losses Range Over 81
In Moderate Trading
BY the Assoeiated Press

NEW YORK, Aug. 24.-The
stock market slipped lower today
in a quiet manner.
The decline went to between
! and 2 points at the most with
the majority of issues posting
small fractional = losses. Gains
were small and scattered.
Trading was at a moderate
pace.
Railroads, whose performance
is under close scrutiny by tech
nicians, were lower after starting
mostly unchanged to higher.
Some contend that the railroads
are likely to point the markets
direction by their own action.
Denver g. Rio Grande was of
around a point in it's reaction
from a gain of 4 points Friday.
Directors meet for dividend ac-
ton this week. Illinois Central,
whose directors raised the divi-
dend last week, lost better than
a point today.
Other major divisions Lean
ing lower included air lines,
copperS, chemicals, distillers,
and motors. Mixed divisions in
cluded steels and aircrafts. The
oils, utilities. and radio-televi-
sions held steady.
Corporate bonds were steady.
Governments in the over-the-
counter market were mostly un-
changed.
