Baby Chicks Need
A Warm Welcome

Baby chicks need a warm welcome.
Emil Malinoysky, extension poultry
man, says chicks require 95-degree
temperature at floor level the first
2 days they are in the brooder house.
After the second day, heat should
be lowered gradually until the brood
er house temperature is Is degrees.
Heat may be lowered 3 to ) degrees
a week, depending on the weather.
Temperature should then be held at
rs degrees until chicks are feathered
and show no tendency to pile up
during day or night.
Malinovsky advises poultrymen to
operate breeders 2 days before put
ting chicks in the house. That per-
mits an operating check of brooding
equipment and insures a comfort
able house when chicks arrive.
A cardboard ring around the
brooder prevent floor drafts and
keeps chicks near the hover. Card
board should be II to Is inches
high and placed 2 to 6 feet from
the edge of the hover. Six feet from
the hover is the normal distance in
warm weather while 3 feet is better
for cold days.

What would you do If you had onlyone day to make your farm safer2
That's what newsmen asked a group Of young safety experts at the
recent National Al Club Congress in Chicago. They were winners Of
awards presented by General Motors in the National All Farm and
Home Safety Program.
I'D declare a safety day and turn out the whole family to locate
and mark all hazards on the farm" was the answer of Margie Sellers,
II, Whitesboro, Texas. Margie was one of eight national winners
awarded $500 college scholarships by GIN, which also presented expense
paid trips to the All Congress to both national and state winners
among the 425000 All youths who took part in the safety program.
All the youngsters agreed that although safety demands continuing,
dayby-day attention, it might be good to set aside one day for ehni-
mating hazards-and then go at the job as though there would be no
more time for it.
at would make you decide what safety improvements were most
important, and then concentrate on them" said George N. Fleming, Is,
Simms, Montana. II would check the things that get most use, such as
farm machinery and home appliances, and make sure that they were in
safe operating condition" ~
Gayle Givens, II, Frederick, Oklahoma, observed that a safety day"
would be a hard blow against oneo safetyls most dangerous enemies
representation. She and Erich Wilen, IT, Westminster, Maryland, both
national winners--said that if they had only one day for safety they
would concentrate on the home.
That's where most accidents happen" Erich explained. II would
check things like stairs, rugs, and medicines"
Hope E. Caswel, IT, Canton, New York, said she would concentrate
on eliminating fire hazards.
"They are often the least obvious" she said. "And a bad fire is Just
about the most serious disaster that can hit a farm"
Other suggestions included proper storage of tools; building sturdy
pens for livestock, and checking electrical equipment.

French Declaration
Pledged independence

Much progress was made in
each of these respects. The
French declaration of July 3,
1858, pledged full independ-
ence to Wet Nam, Laos and
Cambodia. Already, a treaty of
independence has been con-
cluded with Laos. and Emperor
Bao Dai told me. in Paris, two
weeks ago, that he felt that
Wet Nam was assured of its
independence.
On the military side. a two
year plan was worked out by
General Navarro. 1t was de-
signed to speed the training
of native forces.
The cost of this operation
would be considerable. The
United States, which was al
ready paying part of the cost
of the war. agreed to bear the
greater part of the total cost.
We are now paying at the rate
of about $500 million a year.

military equipment.

Pacific"
A similar agreement was
reached in Paris with Prime
Minister Laniel and Foreign
Minister Bidault.
The progress thus made was
that which the United States
had sought We had never
sought any sudden spectacu-
lar act such as an ultimatum
to Red China. Our goal was
to develop a basic unity of
constructive purpose. We ad-
vanced toward that goal. I
feel confident that unity of
purpose persists, and that such
a tragic event as the fall of
Dien Bien Phu will harden,
not weaken. our purpose to
stay united.
The United States and other
countries Immediately con-
cerned are giving careful con-
Sideration to the establishment
of a collective defense. Conver-
sations are taking place among
them. We must agree as to who
will take part in the united de-
tense effort. and what their
commitments will be.
It must be recognized that
difficulties have been encoun-'
tered. but this was expected.

orable terms and under proper
safeguards. If they can con-
clude a settlement on terms
which do not endanger the
freedom of the peoples of Wet
Nam, this would be a real
contribution to the cause OF
peace in Southeast Asia. But
we would be gravely concerned
if an armistice or ceaSe-f1re
were reached at Geneva which
would provide a road to a
Communist takeover and fur
ther aggression. If this occurs.
or if hostilities continue. then
the need will be even more ur-
gent to create the conditions
for united action in defense Of
the area.
In making commitments
which might involve the use
of armed force, the Congress
is a full partner. Only the
Congress can declare war.
President Eisenhower has re-
peatedly emphasized that he
would not take military action
in o-China without the
support of Congress. Further
more, he has made clear that
he would not seek that unless.
in his opinion, there would be
an adequate collective effort

out. the complications were
such that it was not possible
even to get started until recent
months. Under all the circum-
stances. I believe that good
progress is being made. ! feel
confident that the outcome will
be such that Communist ag-
gression will not be able to
gain in Southeast Asia the re-
suits it seeks.
This may involve serious
commitments by us all. But
free peoples will never remain
free unless they are willing to
fight for their vital interests.
Furthermore. vital interests
can no longer be protected
merely by local defense. The
key to successful defense and
to the deterring of attack is
association for mutual defense.
That is what the United States
seeks in Southeast Asia.
The question remains as to
what we should do about the
current hostilities in Vietnam.
In Korea we showed that we.
were prepared under proper
conditions to resort to military
action. if necessary, to protect
our vital interests and the

Collective Defense
Chances Brighten

However. this situation be-
gan to change and by the
spring of this year it seemed
that there could be a broader
program of collective defense.
On March 20, 1854, after
consultation with congress
sional leaders of both parties,
and after having advised our
principal allies, I stated: "The
imposition on Southeast Asia
of the political system of Com
munist Russia and its Chinese
Communist ally, by whatever
means, would be grave threat
to the whole free community.
The United States feels that
that possibility should not be
pasSively accepted, but should
be met by united action!'
This declaration was nothing
new, although the circum-
stances of the moment gave
the words a new significance.
President Eisenhower, speak
ing almost a year earlier. in
his address of April Is. 1858.
had said that aggression in
Korea and in Southeast Asia
are threats to the whole free
community to be met by united
action"
After having explained our
purposes to the American peo-
pie. we promptly conferred
with the representatives of
nine free nations having i'm
mediate interest in the area.
namely. Vietnam, Laos, Cam
bodia, Thailand, the Philip
pines, Australia and New Zea-
land, France and the United
Kingdom. We informed others
whose interests could be af-
fected.
'sThe governments of the
United Kingdom end Of
France asked me to visit their
capitals to develop further our
concept. After conferences at
London on April IL and 13 with
Sir Winston Churchill and

Indo-Chino, Korea
Situations Differ

In Korea, we. along with
others, joined in the defense
of an independent government,
which was already resisting an
armed assault We did so at
the request of the Republic of
Korea and under a United Ma
ton mandade. The Korean
people were inspired by a deep
sense of patriotism and eager
to develop a power of their
own. The issues were clarified
before the world by decisions of
the United Nations. Under
these circumstances, we and
our allies fought until the en-
emy sued for an armistice.
In Indo- China, the situation
is far more complex. The pres
ent conditions there do not
provide a suitable basis for the
United States to participate
with its armed forces.
The situation may perhaps
be clarified as a result of the
Geneva Conference. The
French have stated their de-
sire for an arnistice on hon.
