Retirement Pay
OF Reservists Upheld
Regardless Of Salary

The United States Court of
Claims ruled unanimously yes
terday that retired Army and Air
Force reserve officers are entitled
to retirement pay. regardless Of
the amount of compensation re-
ceived in their civilian govern
ment jobs.
The decision upset. as far as
reservists are concerned. q a.
year-old statute. It had been in
terpreted, heretofore, to mean
reservists could not accept their
retirement pay if they wished to
hold civilian Federal or District
Government job that paid $4,000
a year or more.
Through Attorney Burr Tracy
Ansell, 40 officers including two
brigadier generals, "a colonels
and lieutenant colonels, three
majors and a captain contested
the case.
Naval Reservists Unaffected.
The decision did not apply to
retired naval reserve officers but
mentioned a 1916 ruling by the
Controller Generals stating the
Naval Reserve Act of 1888
permits naval reservists to draw
salaries in excess Of the $4,000
limitation.
Likewise, retired officers of the
Regular Army, Navy and Air
Force are not affected by the
opinion.
Retired National Guard Of
ficers also undoubtedly will be
exempt from the $4,000 limita-
tion, Mr.. Ansell said. He pointed
out the wording Of 1888 statute
for Guardsmen is duplicate of
that for naval reservists.
Mr.. Ansell argued a 1947 law
nullified provisions of a 1882
statute, setting up the $4,000
limitation.
Computation Awaited
In its decision the court did
not include the amount of money
to be paid the 40 reserve officers.
It said it would await a compu-
tation from the General Ac-
counting Office before doing so.
| Mr.. Ansell said all 40 plain
| tiffs have never received their
retirement allowances because
all made in excess of $4,000 in
their civilian jobs.
| He said about 200 reserve Of

Keeping Easter Flowers
Cool Air and Plenty of Moisture
Essential Before Planting in Garden
By Wilbur H. Younomon

=
acid soil the flowers are blue.
Give them plenty of water in
doors and keep them as cool as
! possible.
Before they have passed their
prime they are ready to take UP
quarters in the garden. but it
should be IN a shady situation
because it is seldom possible to
provide sufficient moisture for
them to thrive in hot sunny
situation therefore, it is less
work and worry if they are in
a cool shady situation.
Do not give them too much
protection since that will keep
the plants from maturing before
cold weather; they are tender
and can lose their buds toe a
late freeze.
Gordenios
OF the four members of the
Stars, the gardenia is the most
tender and least able to take
our winters out of doors. How
ever, there are local gardeners
who have suitable situations and
are rewarded with summer
bloom. Most gardeners keep
their gardenias in pots and move
them indoors in the fall, but it
takes a cool, sunny situation for
the plants to thrive and retain
buds and it takes daily Swinging
with water to provide the humid
atmosphere necessary.
OF the lesser lights in the
Easter Parade, the potted bulbs
are least likely to be of value
and worthy Of retaining for out
of-door use. However, the hya-
cinths will grow and flower for
a number of years if they are
planted in a rich soil in a sunny
situation. But they must be dug
as soon as the foliage begins to
Wither, carefully dried. and then
stored for the summer. They
should be planted in the flower
border in October in a we'll
drained spot. Hyacinths do not
live long in heavy wet soils. Dis
card the tulips unless you are
satisfied with small blooms.
Africon Violet Core
African violets and other
house plants will last for many
years if given suitable light, tenn
perature and moisture condi-
tionS. Some take a sunny win
dow while others thrive. best in
partial light or shade. AS rule
the Towering plants require more
light. ALI house plants need an
adequate supply of moisture but
this will vary with the season
and with the condition of
growth. No rule can be given
here that will meet all conditions
and all seasons.
The Easter season is late in
the year and there will not be
the usual problem of keeping the
plants growing in good condition
indoors until the out-of- -docrs
conditions are favorable for
planting. BY the time the floral
parade is over the weather and
soil should be favorable for
planting outside. OF course
planting sites can be prepared
whenever the soil is dry enough
to be spaded and enriched.

New Clubs Formed

and others are in the process.
It is planned to furnish assist

It is surprising how many oi
the azaleas about to flower ir
local gardens, or hydrangeas
that will bloom in June ano
July reached their owners via
the Easter Parade.
Many Of the colorful plants
which help to gladden. the homes
of this hallowed season car
continue in service for many
years, if we will but recognize
their needs for water and cool
temperatures, while indoors.
The Easter floral parade usu-
ally has four favorites, the
Easter lily. azaleas, hydrangeas
and gardenias. Of course there
are the lesser lights such as
potted tulips and hyacinths. all
kinds of house plants, as well
as potted plant groups but all
appropriate to the season and
sure to be enjoyed by the recip-
lent.
1t used to be that the principal
Easter lilies were tender plants
which could not be transferred
to the garden after they had
finished Towering indoors. To-
day the major kinds used for
forcing are hardy in this area
and need only to be kept well
watered while indoors. They
will benefit by being kept as cool
as possible, so put them on the
porch or in some other cool
location while not on display
1t will help to prolong their
beauty as well as keep them in
good condition until it is safe
TO put them out of doors.
Save a sunny spot in the pc
rennial border where the drain
age is good for these snowy
spring bloomers. Do not cut the
stems back but remove the spent
flowers. The lilies like soil
well supplied with humus so mix
in compost. Sand might also
be added if the soil Is a heavy
clay.
Azoleos Will Thrive
A surprisingly large portion
OF the azaleas forced for the
Easter season will thrive in the
garden-Sweetheart, Coral Bells,
Snow, Pink Pearl, etc. Like all
woody plants they need a copi-
GUS supply of water at this sea-
son, but avoid having the roots
covered by water. such as hap
pens when the pots are placed
in deep saucer kept brim-ful
Of water. Watering from above
is the surest way to avoid drown
ing the roots.
Keeping the azalea in a cool
situation will prolong the flower
season-the potted plants put
out of doors when they are not
needed indoors. If the sun is hot
outdoors place the pots in a
shady situation. This extra eff
fort keeps the flowers in good
condition for weeks instead of
days.
AS soon as the azalea's USE
fulness as house plant is end
ed put it into the shrub border,
sunny or shady. so that it will
build UP a good crop of buds for
next springs show. The azalea
thrives in a "humusy" soil that
is quite acid-the addition of
peat moss to the soil will help to
create both conditions, but it
may take some cheap sulphur
to reach the desired level of
acidity. A handful is apt to be
enough for one season. Mulch
with partially decayed compost.

drangeas that come at Easter

You no doubt read in the Cleve-

tawa County News how Standard
Products net earnings scared to
an all time high of 1887 900 in the
business year ended June 80 as
announced last Wednesday by j.
S. Reid, president.
Officials also say the excellent
profits indicate a continuation OF
the firms strong competitive posi-
ton in its field and that the in
crease of fifteen per cent over the
S772,O0 earned in the twelve
months was achieved despite
scheduled termination of military
contracts.
We, the workers, are very glad
to see the Company we work for
so successful. Even though we
have been faced with layoff after
layoff as far back as 1852, with
the most recent layoff for a two
week period occurring this first
part of August.
Our many, many laid off people
cannot help but reminfsce. Just
what are some of the JOBS that
make our Company SO successful.
For instance our Fisher Line"
which our people helped to pro-
duce here so successfully was
moved out and set up In Gaylord,
Michigan. Then we were producing
"Scuff Plate" for different makes
of cars, producing profitably right
here but this was moved to the
Cleveland plant for production.
Later on our Channel Depart
ment" had to go. 1t was moved
out and set up in Lexington, KY.
where it is still in profitable opera
ton. The latest was the Hard Top
Section" that was perfected and
successfully produced by our peo-
pie and it too was moved out to
continue this production in the
Cleveland plant.
The Company as a whole is doing
fine. But many of our local work
ers aren't. They are depending on
unemployment compensation for
an income and many have already
exhausted their unemployment
compensation claims.
Sure, its good to be on a winning
team, but our workers have been
warming the benches much too
long. This game of life is hard
one when there are bills to pay,
payments to make and no job.
The Standard Products Company
with its high earnings and strong
competitive position should be
able to put its Port Clinton plant
back in full operation.

scored its victory on the rich
