The mans name is Foster Fur
cola. He is now State Treasurer
of Massachusetts and he is being
prominently mentioned in connec-
ton with the Democratic nominal
ton for governor. At the meeting
in question Mr.. Furcola did not
tell the assembled Americans for
Democratic Action what splendid
men and women they were. He did
not tell them that it is they who
should run the country He did not
speak of the glory and achieve
ments of the A. d. A. Instead, to
their utmost surprise, he told the
A. d. A. members that support Of
the A. d. a. was a killing burden,
weakening or defeating Demo
cratic candidates" The fact is
he told the A. D. A. delegates gath
cred in their annual convention,
the public is apt to oppose i'm
mediatcly whatever you support. ="
Continuing, Mr.. Furcola told the
delegates that you no longer en-
JOY the confidence of the people"
and that there is only one ques-
ton for their consideration
should the A. d. A. continue or
not?"

This question, Mr.. Furcola said,
in effect, applied not only to the
Massachusetts branch but to the
A. D. A. nationally. Quite clearly
he implied that the a. D. A. was
through and the best thing it could
do, as one newspaper expressed it,
was ito crawl into corner and
quietly die" If words like these

DO YOU KNOW THAT:

WEIGH, an old and honored sur
name, is of relatively simple origin,
for it signifies "a native of Wales. v

past, these A. d. A. publicity out
bursts have seemed to become more
feeble and, possibly because Of
more important news, they have
been rather crowded out of the
headlines. Also, not long ago Mrs,
Roosevelt launched another agency
for saving the country known as
THE National Issues Committee"
While Mrs. r. and young Franklin
retain their A. d. A. membership,
the new agency appeared rather to
overlap and duplicate. Though rela-
lively little has been heard of the
National Issues Committee" and
it obviously lacks the A. d. A. pub
LEFTY equipment, still it certainly
has done the latter no good. How
ever. no one in either organization
was quite prepared for the foul at
tack made upon the A. d. A. by a
former Democratic congressman at
gathering of its Massachusetts
branch few days ago.

A Foul Blow?

From time to time in this coun-
try new political parties, organiza-
tions, agencies or associations
spring into being and for while
flourish amazingly. They make
their bows with splendid pronounce-
ments Of principles and goals to
which few can take exception.
Those well equipped with press
agents and widely known names
sometimes get such a high degree
of publicity that they can coast
along for quite a long time with
out the hollow nature Of their
claims and their inherent lack of
strength being revealed.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1954-01-14

Undoubtedly, the A. D. A. will
have am explanation. Undoubtedly
its high-powered publicity boys
will use plenty Of words to show
how wrong Mr.. Furcola is, how he
was "misinterpreted" and how he
does not amount to much of any
thing, anyhow. But in their hearts
they will not believe their own
stuff. They were beginning to be
little short Of breath before Mr..
Furcola struck. For the moment
he has taken the wind all out Of
of them. And he did not do Mrs.
RS Committee On National Issues
any good either 1t may be beyond
even the remarkable talents Of Mr..
Arthur Schlesinger, Jr., to rein
flate them.

discounted. But, coming from an

cannot help but have a damaging
effect.

One of the most prominent of
these in recent years is the So
called Americans for Democratic
Action. This organization, from
the start, has been extremely left
wing or, as it prefers to call itself,
liberal Among its members are
many of the old Roosevelt and Tru-
man New Dealers and Fair Dealers.
These include Mrs. Roosevelt; her
son, Franklin u. Roosevelt, Jr,
now an aspirant for the New York
Democratic gubernatorial nominal
ton; Mi. Walter Rcuther and a
number Of CIO subleadcrs, the late
venomous Mr.. Harold Ickcs and

To determine the amount of
corn lost by the various ma
chimes, Gienger was making a
count of ears and shelled kern
els on harvested rows. He dis
covered that losses for one ma
chine were higher on one side
of the field than ON the other
side. This mystery was cleared
up when it was noticed that the
driver was pulling in second gear
going one direction, and in third
gear going the other direction.
Losses increased more than 100
percent when the tractor was
shifted into third.
"Most of this extra loss was
in shelled Kernels" Gienger re-
calls. "The corn was clean and
standing up well, so the pickers
missed very few ears even at
higher speed. We would have
seen a much greater loss of ears
at the higher speed if the corn
had been down."

farmers need no reminder of the
value of dependable electric pow
err to the success of their opera
tons, but the State Extension
Service this week advised that
uotmoded wiring can prevent
farmers from making the most
effective use of electricity.
TOO often loads have been
added beyond the original capaci-
ty of the circuit" says Universe
ty of Maryland Extension agri-
cultural engineer A. V. Krewatch.
"Flickering lights, slow action of
heaters and overheated and burn
ed-out motors are a far too COM
mon occurrence"
For farmers who think re-
wiring job is too expensive, Kre-
watch advises: The cost of rewir-
ing is often repaid in savings in
the electric bill. The energy lost
in resistance heating of under
size circuit wire shows up on the
meter but serves no good pur-
pose.
A thorough inspection, now of
all the farmstead wiring-in the
house, in the outbuildings and in
connecting circuits - is recon-
mended as basis for improve,
ment as well as safety.
In many cases, Improvements
can be made without involving
major changes. Existing circuits
can be divided to reduce the load

'MOtherless Pigs Get
Defense from Expert

An unusually large number Of
Maryland farmers have written
to Extension agents this fall TO
ask what can be done with extra
pigs" surplus" pigs from big
filters and pigs from sows that
won't let down their milk.
The questions have taken on
an exar urgency during the fall
borrowing season.
"Motherless pigs can be raised
successfully" DR.. Stewart Fowl
err, University of Maryland swine
specialist says, land under most
conditions it is desirable to do
so.'
DR.. Fowler says pigs should
get the sow's first milk. or colos-
trum, for the first two or three
days if at all possible. Then, if it
is necessary to take pigs away
from their mother, cows milk
can be fed by adding about two
and one-half ounces of cane Sug-
ar Cor three ounces of corn syr-
up) per quart of sweet milk. The
cows milk can be fed from a bot
tie or pan, and the pigs will learn
to drink faster if it is heated to
about 80 degrees F.
The swine specialist also adj
vises farmers that pigs will
thrive on synthetic sow's milk, if
it is used carefully. A synthetic
product with extra high levels of
vitamins and antibiotics is recon-
mended if pigs do not get the pro-
lection of the sow'S coloStrum.
Pigs should stay on the synthetic
product at least four weeks. DR..

! cial care to watch the tempera-

plains that the extra loss in this
demonstration was caused by too
fast ground speed. He adds that
waste can also result from i'm
proper power takeoff speed. 'You
don't get the right combination
of ground speed and power take
off speed by going in high gear
and throttling the tractor down"
he says. GO in a lower speed
and have the throttle open"
Gienger calls attention to one
thing he particularly liked about
the Montgomery County demon
stration-all the farmers had all
the safety shields in place on
their pickers. 'I predict a safe
harvest for those farmers" he
says. "They are safety conscious"

sweet and lovely and sings real
pretty.
Then it's soap opera time, and
there is always some male VIII is a
tower of strength in time of need,
and he pours out his heart and
vows his undying devotion to the
poor helpless female. When the
kids come home, there's more of
this same sort of stuff when the
cowboys take over. The swaSh-
zuckling hero always dashes up on
his educated horse and saves the
day.
When father comes home, is he
the hero like he used to be? Is he
the glamorous guy who returns
home from some myteriouS world
from whence comes the family
bread and butter? He is not. He's
a dull jerk who's been pushing a
pencil all day, and the look his wife
gives him clearly says, ''Why can't
you make love like DR.. Whosis in
Road Without Turning or crack
jokes like Arthur Lewis Moore?''
And the kinds wonder why they
had to come up with a daddy that
can't even ride horse. Instead of
comparing him with Jackie Glea-
sons sidekick, that great sewer
worker, Ed Norton, father is
weighed and measured against all
the Snroothies, both real and fic-

the place all day.
It's downright unfair, that's what

NEW YORK, (GLOBAL) = Be-

the American home, we feel it our
duty to reveal that we seem to
have uncovered a sinister plot to
undermine said institution and dis
credit the American male.
During a recent bout with a
stubborn and powerful virus bug,
we were forced to take to our
couch for several interminable
days, and re relied chiefly on tele-
vision to lift us out of boredom.
Well, we hadn't held still so long
since television was invented, and
we had never watched the pro-
grams go by one by one. But be-
lieve us when we say these folks
are up to no good.
The day starts out innocently
enough with news programs and
some light talk with some very
nice and well informed people. and
we hear weather forecasts, and
stuff like that there. But come
$3.50 or 900 o'clock, they begin
to pour it on-hour after hour of
charm. There's the chatty fellow
with a real intimate note in his
voice. He relates little incidents in
his life and makes them sound 5000
glamorous, and his references to
family life would make you think
ne was the most conSiderate and
understanding husband and father
in the world. Then there are the
out and out glamor boys who tell
funny stories and flirt with the
studio audience, and make YOU
think life is just one great big
hilarious joke. They head up these
