brought back to mind an incident that
occurred at the feeding place in our
back yard" writes w. F. Of Falls

Our main feeding station Is under
a persimmon tree just outside of the
back porch door where we throw the
bird feed into the shortly cropped grass,
and then observe our visitors through
the window in the kitchen door.
"Of all the birds that come to feed,
the dove easily ranks as the most shy
and jittery, taking fight at the slight
est noise or the distant approach of
human being.
Under such circumstances, most OF,
the species soon return, but the doves
seldom do. and then only after passage
of considerable time.

being gentle and timid. but one day

Confidential Records

William H. Timbers, chief counsel OF
the Securities and Exchange Commission,
has been held in contempt OF court by
Federal judge in Detroit for refusing to pro-
duce certain confidential SEC records
wanted in the trial of civil suit.
The Judge, Arthur F. Lederle, says that
"the courts cannot function unless they can
secure all the evidence" 1t is necessary to
remember, however, that the executive
branch of the Government might also be
unable to function If any judge has the
power to compel the production in open
court Of any and all confidential records. 1t
is indicated that Judge Lederle's contempt
finding will be appealed, and this obviously
should be done. Under our system Of Gov
eminent, there are confidential areas in the
executive establishment which neither the
courts nor Congress should be permitted to
invade.

Pentogon Bank

Edwin T. Holland, president of Arlington
County's Old Dominion Bank, thinks he Is
getting a raw deal from the Defense De-
partment in his attempt to establish
branch bank at the Pentagon. 1t looks as
though he may be right.
Mr.. Holland first applied for authority
to establish the branch in July, 1852. He
was advised by letter dated July 80, 1852,
from the office of the Secretary of Defense
that no branch bank was needed. However,
this letter also said: eve will keep your
letter on file and if in the future change
is considered advisable you will be so in
formed"
There was some intermediate CORE
spondence, and then, on September 7, 1854
Mr. Holland applied again for permission to
set up the branch BY letter dated Sep
TENDER IT., 1854, the Defense Department
again said no change was contemplated, and
again added: IF in the future it is decided
that additional banking facilities are needed
in the Pentagon, we will contact you"
On February 81 of this year, according
to Mr.. Holland, he was told by the chairman
of the Concessions Committee of the De-
tense Department that the department, II
space for a branch bank on competitive
bid basis. But through some unexplained
process, the power of decision, it was indi-
Gated, had passed to the Treasury Depart
ment. On March 1, Mr.. Holland learned that
the Controller of the Currency's office had
approved an application for Pentagon
branch from the First National Bank Of
Arlington, but was told at the same time
that this was not intended in any way to
influence the Defense Department in award
ing space for the branch. AS of last Friday,
however, papers granting the space to the
First National were reported to be on
Defense Secretary Wilson'S desk awaiting
signature.
This situation raises two questions.
First, is State bank being Disseminated
against in favor Of a national bank with
three retired generals on It's board Of di-
rectors? Second, If this is not the case, why
did the Defense Department deviate in this
instance from the usual practice of awarding
such space on competitive-bid basis?

Backward Farm Step

The House Committee on Agriculture
has taken a predicted step backward in
approving legislation which would restore
the mandatory 80 per cent Of parity price
supports for five basic crops-corn, wheat,
cotton, peanuts and rice. The same legis-
lation would raise the discretionary mini
mum on dairy supports from IS to 80 per
cent. It is legislation which should be
defeated in the Senate If it passes the
House.
The high, rigid price support program,
adopted originally as temporary wartime
formula, was set aside last year by legisla-
ton authorizing flexible supports for the
five commodities within range of 821a to
80 per cent of parity. Actually, the author
ity to lower the supports does not become
operative until the 1855 crops come in, so
this formula for Government aid has not
been tested and is not, of course, responsible
for the declining trend in farm prices which
has been noted since 1851. Meanwhile,
however, the high support program has re-
suited in Government purchase of billions
of dollars of neutrality-suspicious. that
were destined to be surplus" even before
they were planted or harvested. Further
more, the chief benef1ciaries of this waSteful
program, as President Eisenhower pointed
out last year, have been about 2 million
owners of large and highly mechanical
farming units. Little or no benefit has gone
to about 35 million small farmers. At the
same time the consumer taxpayer has
footed the bill for unneeded purchases and
storage, as we'll as in higher prices for the
commodities being held off the markets.
Under other legislation enacted last
year, the Government is authorized to dis
pose of some Of the huge commodity stocks
in return for foreign currencies, goods or
services and, within limitations, to give
away some for famine relief. The Depart
ment Of Agriculture has reported substantial
progress on this program. In addition,
expansion in research and educational work
in agriculture Is under way and special
study is near completion on the problems
of the low-income farmer. Last November's
farm area voting in the congressional cleo
lions did not indicate any pronounced dis
pleasure with the administrations approach
to the agricultural problem. Certainly it
warrants fair trial, and there should be
no retreat to system that failed because
it was not designed for normal peacetime
periods.

Housing Keystone

Being compromise Of widely varying
viewpoints, the latest draft of new Dis
trict housing code is less stringent meas
ure than some critics of rundown housing
in Washington had hoped for. It also is
stronger than opponents of rigid control
had wanted. But if finally adopted it will
provide a basis for a realistic attack on
disreputable housing that should prove
more effective than the feeble efforts Of the
past.
In rewriting the previous draft pre-
pared by the Dulcan committee, a group
headed by william H. Cary Of the Health
Department has eliminated, wisely, any
mention Of "tenements," a term used in the
existing code to cover some types of housing
not ordinarily construed as coming within
that description Instead minimum stand
ards are set for multiple housing with
view to protecting tenants from health and
safety hazards Old as we'll as new housing
is included in the restrictions. This will
call for a rule of reason in enforcement.
Since all sides in the housing contro-
versy are said to have been in general
agreement on the revised draft, the pros
pect of early adoption of the code is re-
ported to be bright That is encouraging
for Washington will be barred from par
ticipation in the Federal slum clearance
and rehousing program unless modern
housing code is in effect here. Federal
officials have made it plain, in fact, that
an acceptable code will be key factor in
the ALLEGATION of Federal funds to this area.

slight motion scares the feeders away.
This is because the bird eye is one of
the best eyes in the world, made by
nature to protect the bird, and also to
help him find food.
1t is said that the average bird can
see a grain Of corn at 300 feet. No
wonder they find it when put out in
quantities.
Some Of the more intelligent species,
such as the starlings, have their own
system of scouts, and spot food when
apparently there is not a starting in
the neighborhood
Our correspondent felt that the jays
came down on the dove "by prear-
rangement and q well-laid plan"
This is because jay attacks are family
affairs.
Blue jays live together, sons and
fathers, for many months. Probably
the mother birds and daughters are
along. too.
Not all species stay together as the
jays do. Whether it is a particular
mark of intelligence, we do not know.
but it makes for cohesion and surprise
in attack.
Being intelligent above most species,
the jays were deferred by the dove, and
when they saw 1t would not bulge, fell
to eating, like the sensible creatures
they were.
The dove, on the other wing, started
eating. too. because it had never been
afraid of Jays. and never will be. 1t u.s.
alas only man 1t fears, and with
reason.
