Poet'A Conner

WINTER AGAIN IN APGAR
There is snow again in Apgar
And l think it is here to stay,
Until March,
Maybe April,
Most likely the first of May.
Snow lies white on the pine trees,
It lies deep on the ground.
Now we ''begin ter"
See Old Man Winter,
Start throwing his weight around
Deep lies the snow on the houses
Diamonds drip from the caves.
A chick-a-dee chirpS
Up there in the birch
And fits about in the trees. 4
Children play in the snow drifts,
AS wind whips snow up in whirls
They run to and fro,
Their faces aglow,
And boys throw snow at the girls
Yes, it is white again in Apgar,
Old Winter must have his fling.
We love it, you know,
This beautiful snow"
But oh, how we're wishing for
Spring.!

HERES HOW
SEAL WOOD SURFACES

is applied with = brush. in the
direction Of the grain.
When the liquid sealer has
dried, it should be sanded with
so garnet paper or 600 steel
wool.
Paste filters are used for
coarse-grained woods. The
filler is applied with = brush,
across the grain. Excess filler
is removed by rubbing across
the grain with burlap. Then
the piece is rubbed in the d.
rection Of the grain. When the
filler has set it should be
sanded, with the grain, with
so garnet paper or 600 steel
wool.
Then the article should be
cleaned before the varnish is
applied. Rub with . cloth
dampened in benzene or SINH
lar cleaner. For cleaning joints,
holdings, corners, ETC., use =
picking stick sharpened
dowel wrapped in a cloth
dampened with cleaning fluid.
Shellac is commonly used as
a filler. Usually two thin coats
are applied. Sand the piece
after the first coat has dried to
remove the shellac from the
wood surface. Use white shell
lac for light colored woods or
finishes, and orange shellac for
the dark ones.

For . fine finishing job,
wood must be properly sanded,
the surface filled and sealed,
and then resanded before the
final finish is applied.
On some woods, especially
those with coarse grain, var

causing light and dark spots.
Uneven surfaces are accentu-
ated when the finish is applied.
It is usually necessary, there

Small Fund but Important

President Eisenhower has given
proper emphasis to the seriousness of the
dilemma in which Congress placed the
National Capital Planning Commission
when it denied the agency's request for
a staff enlargement. In urging a sup
Elemental appropriation of $4,000 for
the commission, the President pointed
out that mandatory planning for develop
ment of the Metropolitan Area will be
frustrated unless the fund is granted.
Congress itself ordered the planning, but
certain vital assignments cannot be
carried out without the hiring of addi-
tional staff members.
When Congress created the National
Capital Regional Planning Council and
reorganized the National Capital Plan
ming Commission, the two agencies were
directed to cooperate in planning the
Improvement of Greater Washington. To
fulfill this task, both agencies say, will
require the services of an expert staff
Aof technical men. The newly created

Another Airport Plan

The administration finally has come
forward with something constructive In
an enort to solve WaShington'S pressing
airport problem. Commerce Undersecre-
tary Rothschild's proposal for an inter-
1urlsdictional airport authority to build
second terminal, with the Federal Gov
eminent bearing half the cost, is in strik-
ing and welcome contrast to the muddled
airport report submitted last March by
cabinet committee. That committee,
consisting Of Commerce Secretary Weeks,
Budget Director Hughes and Air Force
Secretary Talbot, came to the strange
conclusion that airport construction here
is chiefly local responsibility. The new
policy, disclosed to a Senate subcommittee
by Mr.. Rothschild, represents a sharp
turnabout in Federal attitude.
Under the latest shift of policy (and
the policy has been shifting with con-
fusing frequency the Federal Govern
ment would put up half the cost of
building an auxiliary airport if the Dis
trict, Maryland and Virginia form an
airport authority to operate the present
National Airport and build a second one
The remaining half of the cost would be
raised by the authority through revenue
bonds. The Federal agreement to pay so
per cent of the construction cost is with
drawal from the original decision to bear
the full cost of another airport, as pro-
vided in the Inflated Burke project. But
it is more realistic than the Weeks
Hughes-Talbott profer of the usual Fed
eral aid for airport construction, ranging
from 10 to 20 per cent of COST
The authority plan has a serious
drawback, unfortunately. An interjuris-
dictional authority would require action
not only by Congress but by the Maryland
and Virginia Legislatures. That might
stretch over several years. Perhaps the
interim Improvements being made at
Gravelly Point will afford sufficient relief
to permit OF such delay. Certainly the
joint Federal-Airport Authority plan is
worth careful consideration by all agen-
cies-administrative and legislative
concerned over dangerous congestion at
the present airport.

Bar Association Vote

The District Bar Association soon will
complete its third mail referendum on
the question of admitting qualified Negro
lawyers to membership Since the pro-,
posal requires change in bylaws of the
association to delete the present stated
limitation of membership to the white
race, supporting votes must total two
thirds of the ballots cast if the change
is to be approved. Although a similar
resolution won only As per cent of the
votes in 1850, second referendum COM
pleted last January brought favoring
vote of 65.7 per cent-falling short by
the narrow margin of fraction less than
18 individual ballots.
Sentiment in these times favors
admission of qualified Negroes to pro-
fesSional organizations, trend that has
been evident in the District of Columbia
as elsewhere. More than half of the
State bar associations, as well as the
American and Federal Bar Associations,
now have no color barriers. Qualified
Negro lawyers have equal access, of
course, to all facilities and privileges of
the courts here. They have an interest
in sharing the responsibilities which the
local bar association has in the COM
munity and in the legal profession. The
association would be more truly repre-
sentative of the profession in the District
If this limitation on membership were
removed. conclusive vote in favor of
the change is clearly desirable.

BY what rule of logic is an
employer who refuses to grant
a wage increase demanded by
a union a culprit? And if the
union sees fit to call a strike
which paralyzes a city, is the
employer guilty of irresponsi-
bility? Responsibility is a two
way street and the strike
weapon a drastic one. From all
the facts available the unions
position appears quite weak
they have given no evidence
indicating the necessity of a
strike nor have they attempted
to disprove Wolfson's assertion
that the company is simply
unable to meet their demands.

facts be placed on the table

THIS AND THAT
By CHARLES (. TRACEWELL

to find, If the world is not
going to blow itself up. This
possible silly gesture stands
now facing each one Of us.
It does no good to adopt at
,titudes. or perhaps 1t does,
who knows? The thing faces
us. If we wish to prevent its
coming, we must seek to find
the human values in all things,
and present them with such
force that no one, however
inhuman, will dare to blow us
all up together.

The value of flowers, even
the cheapest, is that they call
attention to goodness and
decency.
Nobody, with the exception
of Guy de Maupassant, ever
saw any indecency in a flower;
and he, poor fellow, was going
insane.
A flower has way of draw
ing our attention to good.
Sometimes people apologize
for their flower gardens.
"Oh, I only raise some flow-
ers," they say, as If a few
beds of potatoes and corn
would make everything all
right.
1t is not necessary to be
humble about your flowers.
Be proud of them. The lilac,
for instance, inspired one of
Americas greatest poets to
write one Of his greatest poems.
The althea bush, a favorite
everywhere, should be in every
yard. along with the old-fash-
ioned sweet shrub. as 1t used
to be called.
Who remembers the little
brown curled flowers. which,
held in a handkerchief, gave
something of their aroma to
the cloth?
These are precious memories,
much safer to hold than bombs,
stealing into the heart after
many years. to bring back
memories Of old times. and old
faces and old places.
II any one wishes to read
about the old-tirne family life.
he should get a copy of "The
Great American Tradition"
the story of the five Eisen-
hover brothers. In it he will
find, not only a family history
well handled, but a true pic
ture Of mid-western childhood
