isms and, in most cases, do not ap-
pear to have any toxic effect upon
plants. Certain harmful effects are
suspected on ported plants, however.
Still Expensive
But don't run to the store or call
your salesman for a stock of the new
soil conditioners. In the first place,
they are not yet available in the
quantity which would be required
for farm use. In the second place,
they are expensive, as were other
developments such as 2,4-D, DOT
and tetraethyl lead, until mass pro-
duction methods were devised. In
the third place, much experimental
work remains to be done in order
to determine the quantities to use
under different conditions, the
methods of application for best re-
suits, and the effects on different
soils and crops.
Generally, l pound of synthetic
soil conditioner per 100 square feet
has been found effective for meet
ing soil erosion conditions. About
800 to 500 pounds of the synthetic
are required per cropped acre. Soil
building effects take place at low

acre-inches of soiD the results
might be detrimental and quite the
opposite of the effect desired. Pud-
ding and baking of the soil may be
very pronounced. Considering the
strong fiXation of the conditioners
in the soil, severe consequences may
result unless suitable economical
methods are developed to remove
excess concentrations. Soil should
not be allowed to dry out COM
pletely. Once this occurs, it may
be difficult or impossible to wet the
soil again.
800 Pounds Per Acre
On cultivated lands, the powder
forms may be applied at the rate
of 300 pounds per acre and worked
into the top few inches. For deeper
effects, 500 to 1000 pounds per acre
may be applied in two steps-one-
half top dressed and plowed down,
and the other half disked in after
blowing.
On garden soils and in the green
house, the conditioners may be used
at the rate of about 1 pound pei

control erosion, a carefully prepared
solution may be sprayed on the
surface.
In all cases, the soil should be
reasonably dry at the time of ap.
plication. Some water is necessary
after the treatment to permit the
synthetic conditioner to act.
The powders must be stored il
dry places with containers Tight,

soil conditioners are not fertilizers.
Soil scientists and agronomists, who
have been concentrating on prob
lens of soil structure as well as
those of soil fertility during the past
20 years or more, have observed
that the framework of the soil is
just as important, and in some cases
more so, than the supply and avail
ability of plant nutrients.
This problem of soil structure, and
packing of soil particles so closely
together that the soil repels water,
air and roots, is quite widespread
and has resulted in submarginal
farming and even the abandonment
of many thousands of acres of land
under bitches.
Try 700 Samples
About 10 years ago, chemists in
the research laboratories of one of
the nations leading chemical COM
panies started to work on the prob
lem of finding quick cure for phys
ically sick soils. They knew that
many tons of manure, composts and
other organic materials are required
to produce a relatively few pounds
of the natural gums which create
good structure in soils. They also
knew that, unfortunately, these
natural sticky materials or 'poly-
uronides' are temporary in the soil
and vulnerable to decay by bacteria
After trying over 700 samples Of
chemical synthetics as possible sub.
stitutes for natural soil conditioners
they narrowed the search down tt
the hydrolyzed polyacrylonitriles
which are manufactured from acety
lene and hydrocyanic acid, and tt
a vinyl acetate-maleic acid com
pound. The large molecules of the
substances have hundreds of point:
at which they can combine with
inorganic chemical elements in the
clay of the soil.
Keep Pores Open
Applied as powders or as waite
solution, the compounds seem t.
coat the soil particles and create
sponglike structure in the soil, hold
ing the particles together, despit
running or percolating water an
disturbance. At the same time, the
keep the 'pores" open, thus i'm
proving aeration, drainage and max
ing it easier for the farmer to ploN
or cultivate. They help to main
tain good structure in soils whic
puddle when irrigated and bake c
crack on drying after irrigation. Ye
more water can be taken up an
held by treated soil than can b
absorbed by untreated soil.
At Dayton, Ohio, experiment
proved that in cases of very poo
soil structure, the yields of vegt
tables and root crops could /
doubled, tripled and in some cas-,
increased 10 to 20 times, throug
the use of the products. The be
results were obtained with the lea

Arrest Man In n.
Jackson Staying

Suspected of the murder of
James Davis of 1919 Gentry street
in North Jackson, William Young
was arrested in Chicago and
brought back to Jackson early this
week.
Davis was found dead in his
home clad only in his night clothes
early on the morning of July both.
Evidence showed that he had been
killed after a struggle in the room.
According to reports Young told
Police who brough him back from
Chicago that he went to Davis
home looking for his wife from
whom he had been separated since
July 4th which lead to the fight in
which Davis was killed.
Young is being held on a charge
of murder pending bond.
The case will be set for trial in

QUITS CLOSING DOORS ON CIVIL RIGHTS LAWS
FIRST SESSION OF 83RD CONGRESS
CLOSES WITHOUT ENACTING
A SINGLE CIVIL RlGHTSLAW
See Death Of Rules Change AS
Republican Party Discipline

WASHINGTON, Aug. G. The
83rd Congress closed its first ses-
sion here this week without hav-
ing enacted a single civil rights
measure, Clarence Mitchell, direct
or the Washington Bureau Of the
National Association for the Ad-
vancement Of Colored People, re-
ported in survey of congressional
action.
From the beginning when a
Republican and Democratic coali-
tion defeated an anti-filibuster
rules change offered by Senator
Clinton Anderson 3D., N. NJ, by a
vote of 70 to q, the 83rd Congress
made a determined and successful
effort to avoid consideration of
civil rights" Mitchell asserted.
The Anderson motion was de-
feated when the Late Senator Rob-
ert A. Taft (R., Ohio) made a
motion to table it on January Z.
Senator TAFT was supported by
al Republicans and 90 Democrats.
Voting against the Ohio Senator
were 5 Republicans and Is Demo
Gratis, and one independent.
G.. o. p. Rule Enforced
The decision to kill the rules
change was firmly enforced as a
matter of party discipline among
the Republicans, according to the
NAACP's Washington Bureau.
New Republican senator's who IA
vored a rules change fell in line
with policy decision of the leaders
and voted to keep existing rules
which permit endless talkathons.

Negro Family Moves Into Chicago
Housing Project Bringing Out Rowing
Bands Of Race Batting HoodIums
Five Persons Wounded AS Police
Dispense Crowds At Scene

Chicago, H., Aug. IL (DSNl--
The fear of race rioting was ram
pant here this week as the moving
OF Negro family into a southside
Housing Project brough out rowing
bands of White hoOdlums attacking
Negroes and stoning the automo-
biles of Negro motorist as they
approach the vicinity of the hous-
ing project. The project is the
Chicago H Housing Authority's
Trumbull Park Homes located on
the Southside.
Early Tuesday morning, followed
by mounting tension which appear
ed to be spreading TO other sec
tons of the city some 800 police
men drove an estimated crowd of
1000 Whites from the project. In
breaking up the jeering mob police
men were occasionally showered
with bricks and bottles which they
said were thrown by the teen
ayers who made up large part of
the crowd. Five persons were re-
ported injured as the hOodlum
bands stoned cars of Negroes who
drove near the scene.
A number of persons were re-
ported as arrested by police after
the windows of a tavern in the
neighborhood had been knocked
out. The Tavern was attacked be-
cause of serving Negroes.
The object of the mobs attack
on the project was the apartment
of Donald Howard, letter carrier,
and the first Negro family to move
into the project. The windows in
the Howard apartment had al
ready been broken out last week.
Police Tuesday followed the dis
persal of the mob by placing
Gordon around the three blocks oc-
cupied by the project permitting
only the residents of the project
to enter.
