Parents whose children are

after successful treatment. they
had even thought of suicide.
But. Mrs. Petrasek continued,
even after the parent accepts the
fact a child is handicapped. the
problem seems impossible. Some
times parents overindulge the
handicapped child to the detri-
ment of other children. Some
times they pay too little atten-
ton to his special needs.
The average course in speech
therapy is six months for func-
tional problems and a year or
more for physical deformities.

Birds Can Cause Flap

fury controversy over the ex-
tent of the Federal treaty power.
1t came about this way:
Forty years ago the United
States and Canada signed a
treaty under which they agreed
to protect migratory game birds
during certain seasons. Many
hunters and many States object
ed to this treaty, but Missouri
did something about it. A Mis-
souri, court issued an order en-

game warden from trying to en-
force the terms of the treaty
within Missouri boundaries.
MiSSOuri'S Stand
All sources of food supply
within a State, Missouri declared,
are under the control of the
State and not the Federal Gov
ernment-including wild geese
and ducks.
In the famous case of Missouri
VS.. Holland, however, decided in
1920. the United States Supreme
Court decided otherwise. 1t thus
established the doctrine that
Congress may legislate on mat
tiers not specifically authorized
by the Constitution if valid
treaty concerning them has been
concluded.
This is one of the most con-
troversial legal issues of our time
and one toward which the
Bricker Amendment is directed.
1t also provides the legal basis
on which the Mexican blackbird
treaty rests.

Certain treaties are, as the
saying goes, for the birds.
I And that cuts both ways SC
far as the farmers of a large
part of the United States are
concerned in regard to black
birds which enjoy considerable
legal protection due to a treaty
with Mexico.
In 1888 the United States and
Mexico concluded treaty under
which Mexico agreed to protect
ducks if the United States would
protect backbirds. There has
been a Federal ban on the shoot
ing of blackbirds ever since, and
they have now grown so plenti-
full that they are a serious threat
to certain crops.
In New Jersey, Assemblyman
John w Davis introduced a res
olution in the State Legislature
calling on the President to re-
negotiate the Mexican blackbird
treaty, at least to the extent OF
an open season on these fowl
in New Jersey, Delaware, Mary
land, Virginia and North Caro-
lima where the problem is most
critical.
Firecrackers Ineffective
Interim procedures of soaring
the birds away with firecrackers
do not seem to work any more
Birds are now wise to pyro-
technics and pay no attention
They are, Mr.. Davis notes sor-
IroWfully, smarter than people
think.
Whether or not they are
smart, migratory fowl have
created some of the biggest con-
stitutional issues in American
history.
The wandering habits of the
North American goose. for ex-
ample, led to the Bricker Amend
ment and the great 2Oth-Cen.
