"Gordon was brought up in

were in the Temple district

the war, that the white folks
made pets out of them.

in addition to being an oddity
on the campus, he could play
football.

AE1I1CQ1 Oh 1OIuO4A AS
v. |. Governor
The"Tribune" a publication
of Los Angeles, California,
bitterly critized the appoint
ment Of Walter A. Gordon as
Virgin Islands Governor. !
"There is nothing soft, toler-
ant, idealistic, feeling or even
intellectual about Walter A.
Gordon, and Of course, the
militancy went out of him a
long time ago Che was presi-
dent of the NAACP up north)
so it is unlikely that he will
bring to his new post any spe-
cial sympathy for the passion
of the Virgin Islanders for
self government, the paper
stated.
"But then, thi skind of two
listed obtuseness to other PEG
pies suffering and dreams is
what passes for virtue in high
places these days. If Gordon
profits by his predecessors
mistakes and keeps his fing-
ers out of the jam pot, he may,
barring a change Of admins
tration, beat his record for II
years with the Adult Author
ity whether the natives take
to him or not. After all, who
cares nowadays for the likes
or dislikes of the peasants?"
The paper said it was
strange that at no time did
Governor Alexander, IAN
American Negro, ever say
anything which took into ac-
count the very natural desire
of the people he governed for
self-government.
"This is the real bone of con
tention with the islanders.
They feel themselves capable
of progressive self govern
ment. Instead they get politi-
cal appointees who all but es-
tablish relationships"

Mrs. Doherty is taking up the
broad range of ideas which chair
men worked out with Miss Lou
Lombard, county chairman, last
year.
Miss Dorothy Emerson, Associ-
act 4-H Club Agent, University
of Maryland, conducted a work
shop on "How to Give a Good Re-
port" at the January meeting of
the Presidents Council of Home
makers Clubs. Miss Emerson
emphasized that a delegate has a
responsibility when representing
an organization. A representa-
tive uses a "two-way communities
ton idea" in carrying the major
ity decisions from one group to
another. In order to do this eff
fectively Miss Emerson suggest
ed that delegates take notes and
summarize the important points.

duced the Council officers and

State Farms
Lead Region
In Canning

Maryland farmers in 1854
again led the South Atlantic
states in the production of vege-
tables for canning and freezing.
Growers in the state last year
harvested more than 452 million
pounds of vegetables for sale to
professors" said L. M. Goodwin,
Maryland representative of the
American Can Company. MARY
land produced more than a third
of all the processing vegetables
grown in the Southeast. This
large production brought the
states farmers more than $40
million during the year"
Goodwin said that Maryland is
an important grower of such pro-
cessing vegetables as tomatoes,
snap beans, lima beans, sweet
corn, asparagus, cucumbers,
green peas and spinach. He ex-
planned that the state last year
planted about 83 thousand acres
to these and other vegetables for
canning and freezing.

WALLEYE
(Stizostdion vitreMms)
Also called Pike-Perch and Walleyed Pike.

RANGE: Extends we'll into
Canada, and in Mississippi Valley
and Great Lakes Basin; its range
has been extended by transplant
ing; the only waters in Maryland
inhabited by this species are the
Susquehanna River from the Penn
slyvania line south to the rivers
mouth, and in it's tributaries &C.
casionally; although it has been
stocked in Triadelphia and Loeb
Raven Reservoirs few if any wall
eyes are taken from these waters.
DESCRIPTION: Color varies with
environment; generally a dark
olive green on back, body with a
decidedly yellow cast; pink on fins;
two clearly separated dorsal fins,
which is characteristic of the
perch family to which the walleye
belongs; has large, CLASSY eyes
from which it derives it's name;
strong teeth; average size about
2 pounds; world record % pounds
A ounces.
BREEDING: Does not prepare
nest, the eggs being dropped in
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1955-01-13

shallow water where they hatch in
about weeks in a water tempera-
ture of about so degrees F. One
female may deposit as many as
10000 eggs. Spawn in spring.
HABITS: Prefers deep, clear
water; inclined to congregate in
schools so where one is caught
there should be others; feed mostly
on. fish but will take crawfsh, frogs
andNNlood worms; feeds largely at
night coming in from deep water
to shallow water; will take artifi-
cial bats which should be fished
deep.
MANAGEMENT: Readily propa-
gated artifcially and can be sue
cessfully reared and planted in
suitable waters.
VALUE: An excellent fresh water
food fish and ranks next to lake
trout and whitefish commercially
in the Great Lakes Region; sup
plies good sport to some anglers
in Maryland although the territory
it inhabits is very limited.

A. Turner, USDA veterinarian in
charge of the local office of Ami
NAL Disease Eradication, an
nounced here today that Federal
State arrangements have been
completed for speeding up efforts
to stamp out the disease in Mary
land.
Under these arrangements, ac-
credited veterinarians are to be
paid from Federal funds for
drawing blood samples and vac
cinating calves in herds not free
of the disease. Herds which have
been under supervision and now
certified as brucellosis-free must
be tested and calves vaccinated at
the owners expense.
Indemnity payments from
State and Federal funds can be
made on reactor animals removed
for slaughter, as in the past, with
appraisal values of SITS on
grades and $275 on purebreds and
maximum indemnity payments
of $25 on grades and $50 on pure
breds from each of the sources.
Indemnity payments are de-
pendent upon certain conditions
surrounding addition to the herd,
and the actual amount depends
upon the difference between the
appraisal and the salvage. In or
der to control the movement of
reactor animals, all of them must
be identified by branding and
tagging.
Drs. Brueckner and Turner
point out that all herds must be
signed under Plan A, which calls
for testing and removal of reac-
tors. 'By the end of this year,
Maryland should be well along
toward being free of brucellosis
in all herds of dairy and beef
animals" they say.

County Students
Over IA to Get
X-Rays for TB

All Montgomery County stu
dents IA years and over will par
ticipate in the annual school x
ray progfam being conducted by
the Montgomery County Tuber-
culosis Association, in coopera-
ton with the Board of Education
and the Health Department.
During the months of January
and February the x-ray unit will
be taken to all the public, paro-
chial and private schools for the
benefit of the students, faculty
and other school personnel, ac-
cording to Warren Haley, vice
president of the Association.
Explaining why children under
Ia years Of age are skipped,
Mr.. Haley said that tuberculosis
is not prevalent among children
under that age. He pointed out
that a child who develops TB u.s.
ually catches it from an adult,
probably one in his immediate
family.
1.-THE way parents can protect
their younger children from the
disease is by being x-rayed them
selves. We are hoping, by having
good educational program on
tuberculosis in the schools, our
students will continue to have
annual chest x-rays when they
become adults, he said.

Get Breeders Ready
For Early Chicks

Early chicks for laying flock
requirements will soon be going
into brooder houses on Maryland
farms. This brings a reminder
from county agent Delbert For
ster that it's time to check all
brooding equipment.
"Start the brooder stoves and
make sure they work properly"
he says. "Then, if any parts are
needed replace them at once so
there will be no heat failure af-
ter chicks arrive.
"And while you are getting
things ready don't overlook cleo
trio wiring and all the connec-
tons needed to operate electrical
equipment
Another important reminder is
to have sufficient feeding and
watering space. Recommends
tons for feeders are: one linear
inch of feeder space per chick
the first two weeks, IL inches
per chick from 2 to 6 weeks of
age, and three linear inches per
chick from 6 to 10 weeks of age.
Recommendations for founts
are 20 linear inches per 100
chicks up to two weeks of age or
two 1-gallon founts, 40 linear
inches per 100 chicks from 3 to
10 weeks of age or two 3-gallon
| fountS.
Foster also adds a bit of adj
vice for egg producers who have
doubts about the number of
chicks they should order: Don't
let low egg prices last fall and
this winter discourage you from
ordering enough chicks to fill
your house with pullets next fall.
The prospect is for better egg
prices for July, 1855, to July,
1856.
