He explained the seating plan
as one where Negroes would
continue to take seats from the
rear toward the front of buses
but would not be required to give
up front seats if none was avail

Montgomery attorney Jack
Crenshaw, representing Mont

Assistant Attorney General
Stanley N. Barnes said today any
blanket order for all unpaid VOL
unteer Federal workers to file
statements of their financial in
terests would be a complete
joke"
In testimony before a House
Judiciary subcommittee. Mr..
Barnes noted the Government
uses the services of nearly 10l,-
900 unpaid volunteer workers,
He said all but a handful consist
of such people as Gray Ladies
Red Cross helpers. draft board
members, agriculture extension
workers, deputy game wardens
and wives of forest rangers.
To require these individuals tc
file financial statements, he said
would make a complete joke OF
any financial filing requirement
The House subcommittee is
studying an order President FL
Senhower issued last month gov
erning activities of "dollar-a-
year" men in Government. These
officials must file statements Of

The conclusion seems war

Before the hearing Mr.. Celler
said Mr. Eisenhower's order had
been blown up out of all pro-

He told newsmen it added
nothing new to existing law,
and was only a re-statement''
of restrictions added by Congress
to the Defense Production Act

Mr.. Celler called it "regretta-

curing high quality grass and le-
gume seeds, preparing seedbeds,
Inning and fertilizing, if these are
approved as part of a general

Application for ACP help should

Tour For Swine Growers

The second annual Swine Tour
of the Delaware Swine Producers
will be held on Friday, April 29th.
The group will meet at Cedar
Point Farms, Easton, Maryland at
100 PM.
Cedar Point Farms, owned by
Mrs. Alton Jones, is one of the
largest purebred Hampshire breed
ing farms in the east. This farm
is also one of the leading Pro-
duction Registry farms in The
country. In 1858 they had 68 out
of 1872 of the sows in the herd to
qualify for quality for Production
Registry. Sixty of the sows that
have farrowed this spring are p.
R. sows. They are raising 46O
pigs out of the first 48 sows to
farrow this spring.
Some of the interesting items to
be seen at the farm include the
outstanding animals, the 20-sow
narrowing house, and the range
rearing program-mostly of La
dino Clover. Among the top sires
on the farm will be seen Sedal

very important that the forage
crops be sprayed at this time.
Last year farmers will recall how
serious the damage was to both
clover and alfalfa by these forage
pests. The presence of the Spit
tlebugs on plants is indicated by
the frothy, saliva-like masses of
spittle that are found on the
stems and the leaves of the
plants. The spraying should be
done before the condition appears
on the plant The damage done
to alfalfa is reflected in shorter
growth and curling of the leaves.
Plants which are heavily infested
will wilt during the months of hot
weather, and it may be expected
that there will be more damage
done to the crop if there is a dry
spell during the months of April
and May.
In order to control the Spittle-
bugs and Alfalfa Weevil spraying
should be made by the farmer
during the middle of April or
when the plants are four to five
inches high. The insecticide that
is recommended is Heptachlor at
the rate of one pint in not less
than fifteen gallons of water per
acre. Mr.. Schabinger says this
material is safe for use through
out April. Should Aphids appear,
add Malathion at the rate of one
and one-half pints per acre.

ognized testing agency such as
Underwriters Laboratories. Ap-
proved controllers provide for a
current that is limited to a few
hundredths of an ampere and is
only permitted on the line for a
fraction of a second. The "off-

NIT a person to release himself
from the fence, Vapaa explains.
Small children are involved in
over half the electric fence trag-
edies. Few people realize that
even a very small current can
cause death. The current used
by a small seven or 10 watt bulb
is enough to electrocute a person.
Victims freeze" to the conductor
and cannot release themselves un-
less the current is shut off.
Avoid locating an electric fence
near a good ground, such as a
pipe line, pump, stock tank, pond,
irrigation ditch, or other normally
wet ground, the county agent
points out. Always prominently
identify electric fences, especially
those near buildings, property
lines or roads. Never depend upon
an electric fence to restrain bulls
or other vicious animals.

Acres Idled by Crop AllOtments
Opportunity For Conservation
Measures

Are you still undecided about
how to make the best use of land
diverted from acreage allotment
crops this year?
Such land may offer you an op-
portunity to carry out some
much-needed conservation measur-
es on your farm or to develop
some high quality pasture for
more efficient livestock production,
suggests Alden P. Short, chair
man of the Delaware Agricultural
Sterilization Conservation Com
mittee. The Agricultural Conser-
vation Program for 1855 is de-
signed to give particular attention
to conservation problems on land
taken out of crop production in
compliance with acreage allot-
ments.
ACP cost-sharing aid is avail
able to farmers for many prac'
tees aimed at building moisture
and fertility reserves in the sol
practices such as establishing

Graded Lambs Bring
Best Prices

Lamb marketing is most sue
cessful when sold by grade to
specialized markets according to
Mr.. Robert Bull, Marketing Spec
ialist of the University of Della
ware, speaking at the regular
meeting of the Delaware Sheep
Breeders Association.
The hothouse lamb market last
ing from Christmas to Easter,
catering to hotels and some ma
tionality groups, pays high prices
for 30-60 lb. milk fed lambs with
high finish. The Easter market
specialized in fat lambs dropped
in December and early January
weighing 40 to go lbs. Spring
lamb market requires lambs
weighing from 60-80 lbs. by mid
June. April and May lambs can
bring best prices if sold in fall
and winter after the western
lambs and before feed lot lambs
are offered.
Marketing lambs in large groups
through pools" is being used
more in the East. The advantages
include reduction in transporta-
tion costs; opportunity to get into
specialized markets in large
groups; marketing lambs at more
suitable weights; and finally pack
ers' interest in direct purchase of
graded lambs in quantity lots that
will be uniform in size and dress
ing percentage.
With the assistance of the Uni
versity, the Association will ex-
plore the operations of pools" in
North Carolina and elsewhere and
the requirements of the specialize
ed markets as a means of assisting
sheep raisers to obtain better
prices for lambs at home and at
nearby markets.
Several other items of interest
to sheep raisers were discussed at
the meeting. A fleece class has
been added to the premium list
for the Sheep Show at the Kent
Sussex Fair this year. Premiums
of SIS will be given for the best
fleece in each of the following
grades: fine, half, three-eights and
quarter blood. Sheep carrying
exceptional feeces should be sing
led out at shearing and their
f1eeces carefully folded and tied
with paper twine. The grader at
the wool pool will advise which
fieeces should be entered and the
class.
Border collies will be added to
the features of the Sheep Exhibit,
as they are being used in increas-
ing numbers by stock raisers in
the state. Premiums will be of
fered this year for performing
simple commands and bringing
sheep to the handler.
A demonstration of the widel
range of use of working sheer
dogs will be given by Carl Shaft
ner, a prominent breeder anc
trainer. MIR. Shaffner, shepherd
at Penn State University, will alsC
judge the sheep classes.

American Aid Helps Korean All
Clubs Rebuild Their Country

Approximately 100000 Korean
children and young adults have
enrolled in All Club organized in
South Korea with the help of the
American-Korean Foundation.
The Korean people first learned
of All work and its possibilities
for helping to rehabilitate their
war-scarred land when clubs were
organized in 1916 under the lead
ership of Colonel c. A. Anderson,
American military governor of the
South Korean province of Keiki,
where the city of Seoul is located.
When South Korea became in
dependent at the end of the Ko-
rean conflict, the Korean people
asked American-Korean Found
alton to help them organize All
Clubs throughout South Korea.
Colonel Anderson, now retired
from the United States Army,
returned to Korea in 1854 to un-
dertake this work for the founda-
ton on a volunteer basis. The
foundation operates entirely on
funds donated in this country for
Korean aid. Many of its officials
like Colonel Anderson, work with
out compensation.
Colonel Anderson recently came
back to this country to Obtain
materials urgently needed to hell
the keen and eager Korean youth

and made homeless by war, t.

He is returning shortly with
ship laden with dairy cattle

donated by the people OF tn
