BALTIMORE TRAFFIC is
not the worst in the world.
1t is merely the worst in the
United States.
1t doesn't compare with
urban trafiac in Europe.
where the bicycle is the
vehicle of the majority. No
one wants to hit a man on a
bike. But Baltimore has more
horse-drawn vehicles than
any American city, even
more than New York.
That causes some dim
Guilty, but that is not the
worst of it. American truck
drivers are the most literate
in the world; and, whether
they are from Florida. North
Carolina or Pennsylvania,
they al seem to be aware of
the term for Maryland coined
by Gerald Johnson when he
was an editorial writer for
the Baltimore Sun. 1t is that
Maryland is the Free State"
Their feeling of freedom
as they, trundle their boxes
through Baltimore Is a haz-
ard to anyone driving any
thing less than a George S.
Patton 60-ton tank.
The horns OF Baltimore
are something no one would
choose to conjure. The auto
mobile horns in Washington
are PAD enough.
But in Baltimore, drivers
are not content with blast
ing their herns. If you make
the slightest error in trafnc.
they sound their horns, then
they shout at you. Unfriend-

Touriours en- gHdrde is the
motto of Washingtonians

1856 Wool Payment
Will Be 40 Per Cent

THE us. DEPARTMENT Of Agri-
culture announces that shorn wool pay
mentS under the 1856 wool incentive
program will amount to 40 per cent of
the dollar returns each producer re-
ceived from the sale of Shorn wool dur
ing the 1856 marketing year. This will
result in an incentive payment to pro-
ducers of $40 for every $1OO received
from the sale of shorn wool.
The USDA also announces that the
payment rate on sales of unshorn lambs
to compensate for the wool on them
will be II cents per hundredweight of
live animals sold. This payment is de-
signed to discourage unusual shearing
of lambs before marketing.
County Agricultural Sterilization and
Conservation (ASC) offices will begin
making payments soon after July L.
Applications for payment were filed
with these offices by April 80. The
payments will be made on Shorn wool
and lambs marketed only between
April 1, 1856, and March 81, 1857. To
be eligible for payments, the wool must
have been Shorn after Jan. l, 1855, and
lambs must never have been shorn.

This must be done within 60 days

More Push For American Y0UIh
Latest word from the White
House on youth fitness-a subject
now under study by a Presidential
Council-suggests that the bicycle
may be mightier than the dumbbell.
In a discussion of the program
with Vice President Nixon, who is
chairman of the Presidents Coun-
Gil on Youth Fitness, President
Eisenhower is reported as express
ing particular interest" in more
bike riding, and recalling the ex-
tensive use of bicycles in Europe.
Thus it is expected that the
Forthcoming pilot programs in
health building to be conducted in
three key cities will include in
creasing the number of cycle paths
in public parks as well as other
new facilities for bodybuilding
recreation.
In the meantime. bicycling re-
ceives a nudge from the Inaugural
parade featuring a float depicting
the American family riding what
we presume are American-made
bicycles.
But today and every day, in the
National Capital the Councils ex-
ecutive director, DR.. Shane Mac
Carthy and his five sons are con-
Quoting a pilot operation of their
own in pedalling five miles on their
bikes each morning. And the for
mer World War III Naval officer,
who has taught at three universities
and served in four departments of
the U. S. Government. says the
| bike trains minds as well as mus
cles. People who ride together, he
says, understand each other better.
Which, of course, is the idea of
family bicycling.
The Council on Youth Fitness
springs from the Presidents con-
Germ over the poor showing of
American youth in muscular
minimum fitness test Half of
those taking it in the U. s. failed,
while 80 per cent passed in Italy,
Austria and Switzerland-cou
where the bicycle is both recreation
and transportation.
The council is on record that the
push-button age has deprived us of
needed physical activity, that auto
nation aects rural as well as ur-
ban residents and that: "The
strength of our nation tomorrow is
the fitness of its youth today"
With these facts no one can
quarrel. So, perhaps all of us, as
well as junior, had better get on
our bikes.

treaty law"
This, said Commander Daniel is
"a time of danger. Americans, in
and out of the Legion must have
been listening when he urged that
we rededicate our lives to God and
country that our children may en-
joy this blessed heritage of free
dom won with the blood of so much
of the flower of the knighthood of
America"
AS every Legionnaire knows, he
could save 25 cents (this years in
crease in dues) by paying for his
1857 membership before the end of
1856. But we do not think this ex-
plains what's been happening.
There's more to this resurgence of
the Spirit of '76" than two-cents-
a-month.
What Does 1t Mean-In Russian
For once we are forced to agree
with former Secretary of State Dean
Acheson in his criticism of his
successors plan to meet the Near
East crisis by giving the President
blanket authority to employ Ameri-
can troops and American dollars
anywhere in the area.
In testifying behind the closed
doors of the House Foreign Affairs
committee Mr. Acheson warned
that "perfunctory approval" of the
Presidents message and the Dulles
policy would constitute an abdi-
cation by the Congress of it's duty
to the people. He accused Mr.. Dull
les of reckless talk in his testi-
mony before the committee. II
sounded to him ne said, 'perilously
like another approach to the brink.
More constructively, Mr. Ache
son suggested that instead of grant
ing the requested powers to the
President, the Congress pass a
resolution making clear American
policy in the Middle East.
Earlier, Senator w. Kerr Scott
North Carolina Democrat. speaking
from the Senate floor. described the
undated declaration of war"
Our legislators must not be
hasty or "perfunctory' in acting on
this grim request. Let them con-
slider carefully the distinction be-
tween authorizing the Commander
in-Chief to employ our armed
forces against a stated enemy and
outright declaration of war And
let them consider the intent of the
Constitution in giving to the Con
gress the sole authority to declare
War.
Within or without the framework
of the UN, we do not think the
American neopIe are ready for an.
other police action"
