Federal Agents On
Track OF Vandals
In Central Ohio

Federal agents have been dis
patched into Central Ohio within
the past two weeks to track down
the vandals who have been de-
stroying rural mail boxes in Vari-
Gus communities.
In Union County ten mail boxes
were recently knocked from their
posts or mountings, smashed and
left by the roadside Numerous
complaints have been turned in by
people residing in the vicinity ef
Dublin and Shawnee Hills and
two or three farmers of Madison
County reported Monday that
their mail boxes had been carried
away.
In most cases it is thought that
this is being done by teen-agers
who are out on pre-Hallowe'en
rampage, but there has been one
or two cases where it was looked
upon as spite work by grown-ups
This is strictly a federal offense
and violators will face the maxi
mum penalty if caught People
who do not want to serve a sem
tence in a Federal criminal insti-
tuition should not meddle with
Uncle Sans mail boxes.
There have also been reports of
other destruction of property, in
both Union and Madison County
according to Sheriffs, Galloway
and BidWell, who stated that hog
feeders and houses had been up
set, gates taken off hinges and
tossed into bitches, shocks of corn
scattered in the road and the NOV
ing of farm equipment from one
farm to another.
Sheriff Bidwell of Madison
County has warned against any
destruction of property and the
piling of corn shocks on the high
way. This practice of cluttering
up the highways and endangering
the lives of people must be stop
ped" he said. Teen-agers can ex-
pect to be prosecuted this Hal
lowe'en if they insist on going too
far with their antics. Farmers are
asked to make note of all license
numbers of cars seen stopping or
being driven suspiciously in the
vicinity of their homes.

Waterfowl Season
Opens Monday

COLUMBUS, OHIO - With
the waterfowl open season in the
immediate offing, some recent
studies conducted by the Ohio Di-
vision of Wildlife should be Of in
terest to hunters. During the final
days of September it was estimat-
ed that there were approximately
5000 ducks scattered throughout
the marshes, lakes, and streams
of the State. AS usual, the major
ity of these ducks, numbering in
the neighborhood of $4,000, were
found in the marshes bordering
Lake Erie in Lucas, Ottawa, San
dusky and Erie counties. The re-
naming ducks were found fairly
well scattered over the State.
Although the total number of
ducks, geese, and coots observed
so far this fall is somewhat lower
than last year, it is too early to
accurately determine whether this
is reflection of true decrease
in the population or merely de-
lay in the southwark migration.
The duck season opened in Ohio
last year during period of mild
weather and a review of what
hunters found might preview COM
ing prospects. Blue-winged teal
and wood ducks are the early mi
orators, and the peak of migra-
tion movements of these birds oc-
Cured during the third week of
October last year. These two spec
les normally make up the bulk of
the ducks bagged by duck hunt
erS outside of the Lake Erie mar
shes during the first week of the
season. The early season kill for
downstaters will be down this
year, FOR WOOD DUCKS ARE
ON THE PROTECTED LIST.

which was organized and which
worked so hard for retention of
Democrat Frank Horne as Asst.

the Department of Housing, and
for other Democratic appointees,
and re-activate that organization

of those Negro appointees who

years.
Surely Elmer A. Carter, who
helped to organize the first FEPC

as Commissioner with that agen-
cy since the beginning, would be
invaluable to the continued smooth
running of the Commission. Other
Negroes who were also "first" are
worthy of such consideration =
