course, are cutting each ether
dead, and Mrs. CarrOway is semi
cutting Mrs. Buncombe dead, and
Mrs Duclos doesn't quite know
who is speaking or isn't. What's
more, both Mrs. ArbuthnOt and
Mrs. BuncOmbe had got their re-
spectiVe families cutting each
other dead after forcefully argu-
ing that at times like these fam
lies have to stick together. The
major disadvantage in this situa-
tion at the moment seems 20 be
that Mr.. Arbuthnot can't borrow
the BuncOmbe's power mower and
the AFbuthnot's can't borrow the
Buneombe's electric hedge shears.
There are several others. The
Edgemeres aren't speaking to the
Finucanes because their English
sheep dog buried a large bone in
the newly planted bulb bed. The
Goodwins aren't speaking to the
Hersheys because THEIR kids
always play in the Goodwin yard.
So it goes. And maybe when
cooler weather comes, they'll all
OlOW over and be forgotten.
Maybe.
However, as an ardent student
of battling neighborhoOds and fre-
quently involved by-stander, I've
formulated some foOl-proof rules
by which to keep out of trouble:
1. Never get intimate with
neighbOrs; remain at the formal
address (faT. ArbuthnOt, Mrs. Du-
clos) stage.
2. Always speak when spoken
to; never volunteer a hello be-
cause you can't fOretell the conse-
quences.
3. Don't own a dog, send the
children to nursery schools or
fence them in.
4. Never participate in eommu-
nifty projects.
5. Own all your own tools.
8. Live in an apartment.

HOW TO GET ALONG
WITH NEICHBORS
BY CYNTHIA LOWRY
AP Nawslanluras Wriiar

Whether it's the season or
whether it's boredom, don't
know, but we seem to be having
more than the normal quota of
neighborhood battles right now
So many families are cutting
other families dead, it's a wise
householder who keeps a feudfile
to avoid getting involved in other
peoples unpleasantness.
An innocent bystander who
doesn't know that Mrs. Jones has
suddenly developed an acute case
of near-sightedness when Mrs.
Smith is around can get into a
passel Of trouble just by tossing
a CHEEKY hello in the wrong direc-
ton. This can be, and no infre-
quently is, construed to mean that
said bystander has been filed in
on the causal bellum and has
taken sides.
At the moment, we seem to be
surrounded by several major wars.
! haven't been able to get a COM
plete documentary on all Of them,

onset of a few. One in a vintage
fray which has been in progress
ever since a group of neighbOrs
decided to get together" on a
drainage problem. Hard feeling
blew up on the apportioning of the
cost, each householder making
a fine case for himself as the
person who would receive the least
benefit. This in turn led to harsh
words and gross accusations and
now it has reached the point where
the original cause of the trouble
has almost been forgotten but
everyone is still fighting mad and
passionately self-righteous.
There's also a seething little
unpleasantness with four-way
stretch involving a complicated
situation where Mrs. ArbuthnOt
told Mrs. Buncombe something
that Mrs. CarrOway was alleged
to have told Mrs. DuclOs, and after
Mrs. Buneombe overheard Mrs.
Arbuthnot repeating it to Mrs.
Duclos, denied she'd said it, if
you follow me. Well, sir, Mrs. Ar

Topped with crisp bacon-always
welcomed by small fry-this dish
makes a hearty and nutritious
main course for a schOol-day

carrot strips for something
crunehy, Whole-wheat bread and
butter sandwiches and a hearty
dessert of apple or peach crisp.

Stock Prices Steady
Under Quiet Trading;
Aircrafts Show Gain
BY the A,seeieted Press

NEW YORK, April 13.-The
stock market held to a fairly
steady course today with trading
quiet. Gains ran to around a
point with losses fractional. The
upside of the list was slightly
more popular.
The best gamers showed up in
the aircraftS, and some good plus
signs appeared in steels, motors,
utilities and in scattered areas.
Railroads were mixed but
higher on balance. Coppers were
down, and there were some losers
in oils. distillers. merchandising
shares and chemicals.
Attention was focused on a
few individual stocks. The steels,
motors and rails were more
active than other divisions. but
even here the action was not
fast.
Among higher stocks were
Bethlehem Steel, Studebaker.
Montgomery Ward, Boeing.
Douglas Aircraft, Lockheed,
Philco, American Telephone,
Santa Fe, Southern Railway, and
Gulf Oil.
Lower were such issues as
Woolworth. Distillers Corp, Con-
solidated Natural Gas, Home
stake Mining. international
Paper, and Standard Oil IN. J0.
The bond market was fairly
steady. Governments in the over
the-counter market were quiet.

Fish Professors Plan
Campaign TO Whet
Seafood Appetites

The National Fisheries Insti-
tute, meeting at the Shoreham
Hotel today, planned an adver-
tising campaign to get Ameri-
cans to- eat more seafood.
E. A. Ruthford. vice president
of the San Juan Fishing &
Packing Co., Seattle, Wash, at
this mornings session disclosed
details of the plan.
Ultimately, Mr.. Ruthford said,
the advertising campaign would
be built up to 100000 or $780,
600. The money, regardless of
whether it is raised from Ameri-
can or foreign sources, must be
spent in the United States pro-
noting seafood consumption
under the program.
Foreign Participation Invited.
Mr.. Ruthford said all foreign
firms will be invited to partici-
pate in the fund.
Principal exporters to the
American market are Canada,
Norway, Denmark, Iceland,
Greenland, England, the Neither
lands, West Germany, Scotland
and Sweden. Russia is not a fac
tor in the American fish market.
The convention opened today
with 1000 delegates and runs
through Wednesday.
Mckay Addresses Luncheon.
Secretary of the Interior Nc
Kay told a luncheon session that
assignment of the oil-bearing
tidelands to the States should be
accomplished without change in
fishery regulations and controls.
"A large portion of our fisher
mems catch of tuna, shrimp,
hallbut, salmon, ocean perch
and ground fish is taken on the
high seas off the coasts of our
neighboring countries to the
north and south, "the cabinet
officer said. THE rights of our
fishermen to continue in these
high seas fisheries must not be
jeopardized."
The former Oregon Governor
said many industries compete
with fish for water. He cited
hydroelectric plants, crop irri-
cation and industrial processes.
He promised that his department
will do everything possible to
minimize the effects of this COM
petition on fisheries.
1T is our intention to see
wherever possible the develop
ment of hydroelectric projects
will be in areas where they will
have minimum effects on fish,"
Mr.. Mckay said.

Butler Warns Of Risk
In Keeping Policy Makers
By the Associofed Press

Senator Butler, Republican of
Maryland has warned the Eisen-
hover 81. administration against
risking political sabotage" by
holdover Government policy
makers.
Senator Butler in a Senate
speech yesterday called for re-
moval of all policy-making and
confidential positions in Gov
ernment from civil service job
protection and praised the Civil
Service Commission for propoS-
ing such a step.
He quoted from the writings
of Whitaker Chambers, the one
time spy courier who broke with
communism, as evidence that in
the Roosevelt and Truman ad-
minlStrationS "a significant
minority of Federal employees
. have striven purposely and
reSolutely" to undermine the
American way of life.
This minority is to be found,
chiefly, in those departments and
agencies of the Government
whose actions and policies affect,
directly or indirectly, the eco
nomic and social institutions OF
the Nation" he said.
THE members of this group in
clude, in particular, professional
employees, such as lawyers. econo-
mists. information specialists
