Those deathless lines suggest
the master key which opens
every garden gate and the Sc
cret of it's glory. Always the
glory of the garden brings re-
assurance of the lure of the
lovely. There is such a thing
as the lure of the loathsome.
Rottenness is sometimes phos-
phorescent. There are those
who loudly proclaim their
right to be unclean in their
personal habits as long as they
keep out of the clutches of
the police and the penalties of
the law. Sometimes the inher-
emily ugly, decked in the un-
abashed livery of evil, seems
strangely to attract, even as a
serpent charms an iridescent
humming bird.
In architecture, in literature,
and in the life of humans, the
repulsive often exercises a
strange drawing power. One
reason that personal rotten
ness cannot be allowed with
out protest or restraint to go
its licentious way is that evil
is contagious. 1t affects others.
Badness spreads, as the old
adage reminds us that one rot
ten apple may contaminate a
whole basketful of fruit.
Rut the glory of a garden
reminds us of what we some
times forget: That goodness is
the most contagious thing in
all this tangled and tragic
world. The garden is vocal
with the lure of the lovely.

loa athsome on this planet the

THE GAME OF POLITICS
By FRANK r. KENT
Stevenson Key Figure in Lobor's Plans

The victory (and undoubt-
edly it was a victory of Walter
,Reuther, head of the UAW as
well as the CIO, in his recent
negotiations with the Ford
Motor Co., has been widely
discussed as to its impact
upon the individual busi-
nessman, upon business gen.
orally and upon the whole ma
tional economy. 1t has been
called "a historic agreement"
and probably it is-though
at this time no one can predict
with certainty its ultimate
effect.
One exceedingly vital phase
almost entirely overlooked by
the comment following the
signing of the rd-UAW
agreement at least partially
accepting what is generally
called the guaranteed annual
wage, is the political phase.
Despite their occasional pro-
testations of nonpartisanShip,
anyone who does not know
that these top labor bosses
both in the CIO and AFL. now
amalgamated and united, are
up to their individual and col
lective ears in politics is simply
ignoring the facts. The evi-
dence is so clear that it cannot
seriously be challenged. Nor
can it be challenged that back
in the '40s-right after Roose-
velt's death-they gave Seri-
Gus thought to the launch
ing of an American Labor
Party in this country along
European-especially English
lines. What killed that notion
were their two spectacular de-
feats, sustained first when they
sought to put the late Senator
Taft out of public life, and
again in 1852 when they united
against Mr.. Eisenhower in the
country.
Since then nothing more has
been heard about the Ameri-
can Labor Party and there has
been a rather complete shift
in the political strategy of the
labor bosses. They still want
to run the country, but they
want now to run it through
the Democratic Party, where
their dominance seems great
er every day. They are in prac-
tical control of the national
committee, closely allied (per-
sonally as we'll as politically
with Governors such as Harri-
man of New York, "Soapy"
Williams of Michigan and a
long list of Senators like
Humphrey of Minnesota,
Murray of Montana, Lehman
of New York, Nicely of West
Virginia, Kefauver of Tennes-
see and many others. So far
as known, none of the labor
bosses now cherishes personal
presidential ambitions. What
ever they may previously have
done, these men who WELD so
much power do seem not to
want to become President
themselves. What they do
want very fiercely, indeed, is to
nominate and elect a President
upon whom I'VE can depend"
Their hope is to go back to the

Fire From the Left

It is hardly secret that little love
is lost between the Democratic leaders in
Congress and the Americans for Demo-
surprise to see the Democratic leadership
being brought under fire at this time by
the ADA propaganda guns.
According to the ADA statement, the
Republican Party is still firmly in the
hands of antiliberal forces" and the
Democratic leaders in Congress are "be-
traying" the traditions of their party by
"affably acquiescing in the Republican
assault upon liberalism" Speaker Sam
Rayburn and Representative Walter we're
singled out by name for rebuke. On the
other hand, 1t was made clear that ADA
applauds the efforts of its three vice
chairmen-Senators Lehman, Morse and
Humphrey-and their too few liberal
colleagues in the Senate and House who
have worked for liberal legislation in the
face of apathy and at times opposition
of the congressional (Democratic) lead
ership."
Reading this, one might think that
VIC bAiuSCS Ao'C oCoA ouAACN olo UAi"U
the breach between Democratic Left and
Democratic Right Is final and irreparable.
This, however, is not necessarily the case.
The ADA statement will intensity intra-
party bitterness at time when the lines
are being drawn for next years campaign.
But when the chips are down and the
votes are needed, the chances are that
the smiling face OF accord will be put
upon these differences. For politicians
of whatever party have talent which
approaches genius for closing ranks in
the face Of ths spolitical enemy.

Tsushima Naval Engagement

Tsushima Naval Engagement
One of the great sea bat
ties of modern times was
fought in the Straits Of Korea
on May 81 and %, 1905, and
The Star of May 20, 1905. fea-
tured a comprehensive account
of the engagement. Involved
in the contest were units of
the Russian Baltic fleet under
command of Admiral Rozhest-
venski, who had brought his
vessels from Libau to the ORR
ent by way Of Madagascar and
Malacca. The Japanese. led
by Admiral Togo, waited for
the enemy in home waters of
the island of Tsushima. When
the smoke cleared the Rus
slams had lost two battleships,
one coast defense armor- -clad,
five cruisers. two special serv-
ice ships and three destroyers
ALI sunk; likewise, two battle
ships, two armor-clads, one
service ship, one destroyer and
1000 men captured. The
japanese squadron officially
was undamaged. In Wash
ington it was conceded that:
"The Japanese Navy is su-
preme in the Far East" Ad-
miral George Dewey said that
Togo had won "a stupendous
victory" Peace was in pros
pect.
Saegmuller -Fitzhugh Wedding
The Star of June l3, 1905,
contained an account OF the
marriage of Virginia Fitzhugh,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
James Semple Fitzhugh, and
John Leonard Saegmuller of
Rochester, N. Y, at the First
Presbyterian Church on the
previous evening. Rev. Dir.
Donald c. Mcleod was the
officiating clergyman. George
M. Saeg muller was his
brothers best man, and the
ushers we're: DR.. A. B. Ben
nett, Fred A. VanDenbergh,
Bertram G. Foster and William
P. Lockwood. The bride,
beautiful in white satin, chif-
fon, renaissance lace and tulle
veil and carrying a shower
bouquet of white roses and
ies-of-the-valley, had as her
bridesmaids her sister, Ruth
c. Fitzhugh, now Mrs. Rob-
bins, and Lille E. Hercus,
dressed in pink silk mousselinc
and bearing pink sweetpeas.
Mr.. and Mrs. George N. Saeg-
muller. parents of the bride
groom, came to Washington to
attend the ceremony. After
a wedding trip through six
European countries, the young
couple settled in Rochester,
where Mr.. Saegmuller. his
father and brothers were mem

back over tho year ana recau the num-
Der of chickens observed that were
worny Most of them were infested
with the common roundworm called
Ascaridia gall.
The most common clinical symptoms
seen in birds heavily parasitized are
droopiness and diarrhea. The young
birds won't GROW and they become very
light in weight An autopsy shows such
birds to have a small intestine literally
filled UP with r0undwormS that are 2
to inches long Those worms cause
the chicken to suffer from a loss of
blood, loss of sugar from the blood and
an increase OF urates.
It is pretty easy to prevent this worm
from causing such damage. The life
history of the worm is simple and di-
rect. The egg is swallowed by the
chicken. 1t matches in the small intes-
tine. For nice days, the larvae live
free in the intestine, then they burrow
into the lining and cause considerable
hemorrhage. They stay in the lining
of the small intestine for about II days,
causing all kinds of damage, then they
leave the lining and grow to adults.
It takes about so days for the worm
to reach maturity after the egg IS
swallowed Ire mature female worms
lay eggs that are passed out with focal
material Under optimum conditions of
temperature and moisture, the eggs in
the droppings will become infective to
chickens in 10 to II days. The eggs are
quite resistent to low temperatures
The greatest progress in preventing
roundworm irfestation has been made
along the lines of sanitation, hygiene
and management. Poultry runs should
be sloping and of sandy or gravelly ma
ture to permit proper drainage. If the
soil is heavy, artificial drainage should
be provided. Surface water that can be
contaminated by droppings must be
avoided Damp. places around the wa
tering places are ideal for the develop
ment of the worm eggs.
The practice of rotating birds from
one area to fhe next will reduce para
sitism with reasonably good success.
The courtyard system is widely used
The birds are rotated using one pen no
longer than two months The ground in
the recently vacated pen should be left
vacant or. planted to a permanent or
temporary crop. 1t will then become
self-sterilized from infected droppings.
The planting of crops furnishes green
food to the growing bird and it is
claimed the birds are less likely to pick
up contaminated soil when plenty of
green food is available
The frequent removal and proper dis
posaI of droppings from the houses can
not be recommended too highly. This
is must if you are going to control
roundworm infection. Better get the
cleaning job done before the 10 or IL
days required for the eggs to become
infective have passed.
This common roundworm can be fair
ly well eliminated from the birds by
various treatments, but if you let the
birds get wormy enough to require
treatment you are losing money. If you
just treat them with no effort being
made to control reinfection, you are
still wasting time and money. Why not
pay attention to sanitation, manage
ment and hygiene and prevent it in the

Alaska Constitution
By Der, Hitchcock
By Ben Hitchcock

The Alaska Statehood Commit tee has hired the Public Service Administration of Chicago to do research for the Alaska Constitu- tional Convention.
 This can be valuable. Though 1t may duplicate research carried on by delegates independently, the organization has access to data not easy for individuals to get.
 However, there is a disturbing angle to the plans of the Com mittee. All I know is from news accounts, but it appears that the Outside staff not only plans to do research and present infor- nlation to public and delegates, but also to submit constitution, 'in several forms, providing a choice of acceptable portions"
 If this is correct, 1t violates the intent and philosophy of con stitution-making. A constitution is supposed to arise from the needs and wishes of the people who adopt it, and from the con- ditions of their lives.
 The purpose of the November meeting is for Alaskans to work out together what kind of gov- pernment they want. Different groups and individuals will pre- sent ideas, all of which should be heard and discussed before any constitution drafting is done.
 No group, especially one spon- soring a particular philosophy of government is entitled to as- sune the privilege of writing the constitution in advance, expect ing rubber stamp approval.
 If the Statehood Committee is hiring the researchers with pri- vately- raised funds, they are en- titled to offer recommendations embodying their own opinions, on the same level as any other private citizen or group.
