According to the official figures on
sheep and lamb population, there
were 1,725, 900 head ON farms and
ranches, Jan. l., 1852. Texas leads
all states in sheep and lamb num-
bers with 6,126, 600 head. The next
nine states in rank are IN order
Wyoming, Colorado, California, Mon
tana, New Mexico, Utah, Iowa, Ohio
and Idaho. All of these 10 states
except Ohio are west of the Mis-
sissippi river.

can be no doubt as to the purpose
of each plane in the sky. When
either of these is not operating the
country is open to attack without
warning.
If a surprise attack is attempted
it will be the warning system that
will determine the number of lives
lost and the amount of destruction
caused by the enemy's bombs. With
ample warning the invaders can be
met long before their targets are
reached and thousands of people
can find shelter before bombs are
dropped.
Constant Watch Vital
The great amount of ranch area
IN Montana has placed the burden
of Ground Observer work on fewer
people than IN states with big cities
and large populations. However,
it does not lessen the importance
of keeping a constant watch.
When a plane flies over Montana
it must be reported to Filter Cen
tiers which turn over the report to
the Air Defense Control Center. 1t
Is at the ADCC where reports from
radar and Observer Posts are
checked against flight plans It is
there that it can be determined if
planes are friend or foe.
Time Element Important
Reports are needed at all times
so that planes can be checked be-
fore they get too far into the main
land of the nation. It is this ele-
ment of time that is as important
as anti-aiEcraft guns and jets.
In almost every portion of the
state Ground Observer Posts have
been established. Most of the voIun-
teers are people living ON ranches
who travel short distances to the
Posts for weekly watches. Without
these people, without their reports,
large gaps are left In the system If
and when an attack comes 1t viii
be where defense. is weakest and
detection is least likely.

Montana Air Defense Needs
Aid of Farmers, Ranchers

''THE SUPPORT of the Montana
ranchers is needed Immediately if
we are to maintain the Air Defense
system in this area"
These are the words of Colonel
Edward N. Backus, commander of
the 10Th Air Division at Great Falls
Air Force Base. The Air Division
is charged with the responsibility
of protecting Montana, Wyoming,
Eastern Nebraska, North and South
Dakota from enemy air attack. 1t
is one of II such divisions that are
integrated within the nations Air
Defense Command.
The Air Defense system is the
product of years of preparation by
military and civilian defense leaders
who realize the need for such a
program. This need is based on the
progress made in the aircraft indus
try since the end of World War II.
Russia Has Planes
Today there are planes. such as
the Air Forces B-36, that can fly
10000 miles nonstop. If America
had been able to corner the market
on long range planes there would
be no need for Air Defense. How
ever, u. S. Intelligence reports show
that Russia now has in excess of
1000 planes that are capable of
bombing any city in the country.
Therefore a team consisting of
radar screens, anti-aircraft batteries,
jet interceptors and Ground Obser-
vers has been organized.
The Army and Air Force have
the job of operating the first three
components of this team but it is
the civilian who must be respon-
sible for observer work.
During the last two years the
military has taken long strides in
handling its part of the program
New jet planes have been added
TO the defendlng force and gun I'M
placements have been established
in key areas.
Volunteers Needed
However, the Ground Observer
Corps is still in need of volunteers
At the end of 1852 only 250,00C
observers had been recruited. This
is Just about half the number re.
quired.

Methodist Leader
Scores Public
School Education

CHNCINNATI-(NC)-A Method
ist Church leader declared here
that Protestants do not want "pub-
lie schools to which we have en-
trusted our children for about one
third of their waking hours for
three-fourths of the year to offer
an education which ignores God" "
DIR. Mary Alice Jones, director Of
children's work for the Methodist
General Board of Education at
Nashville, Tenn, spoke before the
Methodist Church's National Con-
ference on Christian Education.
She called for public schools to
Acknowledge the reality and SOW
ereignty of Cod"
She said that "no Protestant
wants to interfere with the free
dom Of education" but added
that an education which ignores
God is "unsound." She said such
an education is directly detri-
mental to the work of the church
es and fhe homes, which seek TO
teach children that their rels-
fionship with God is the most
important relationship in their
lives"
DR.. Jones emphasized that the
Constitution of the United States
"does not outlaw God" She added:
Certainly it is the right of parents
to ask that the public schools ac-
knowledge the reality and sover-
eighty of God in overt ceremonials,
and certainly it is the right of
American parents to ask that the
public school officials cooperate
with the churches in the matter Of
arranging schedules SO that the
churches may on request of the
parents of the children receive
them from the school for a stated
period each week for specific re-
ligious education"

Another Home Rule Bill

The home rule bill just introduced by
Senator Case is practically the same measure
he sponsored last year with Senator Nicely. It
passed the Senate but never got before the
House. It's most interesting, and highly
dubious provision is its delegation of legislative
power to locally elected city council. Senator
Case is subscribing to what might be called the
whole-hog theory in this respect.
Under this theory the council is given power
to tax and spend and borrow and enact other
forms of local legislation, without congressional
approval. The point is that the council, under
this bill, could legislate independently of Con-
gress. That has always been very doubtful
point 1t has become even more so in view
of the recent opinion by four judges of the
United States Court of Appeals for the District
of Columbia, which found that the anti-Segre-
cation laws (or ordinanceS) of the old LegiSla-
tive Assembly were invalid because their
enactment was beyond the powers that Congress
could legally delegate.
Senator Case indicated that when his bill
reaches hearings more study will be given to
this point. More study will doubtless convince
the committee. as it has convinced previous
committees, that it will be safer to require some
sort of concurrence by Congress in the legisa-
tive enactments of city council. In that case,
the formula contained in the Kefauver home
rule bill OF 1949 may be brought out and busted
off. Under this formula. acts of the local
council would be subject to congressional veto
within go days. Without the veto. the council
legislation would become law, as in reorganiza-
tion measures.
But if more history is repeated, commit
tee studying this device will decide to drop it
too. And, as in the case of the Auchincloss
home rule bill of the Both Congress, it will be
decided that while the city council may initiate,
or propose local legislation, such legislation
must be approved by affirmative resolution Of
Congress land signed by the President) before
it can become law. It is at this point that
advocates of home rule meet themselves coming
back. For if the number one objective of home
rule (as in the past) is to relieve Congress of
local legislation, the requirement of affirmative
approval by Congress of council legislation puts
Congress right back into the picture without
much relief.
Another oStensible objective of home rule
is to give the people of the District of Columbia
a more effective voice in their own government.
But that is largely hokum. Congress is and will
continue to be the real government of the
District of Columbia Without voice in Con-
gress the people of Washington can have no
effective voice in their government
