First on the agenda is building
up the soil. Soil tests are the best
guide to lime and fertilizer require
ments, but since most lawns are
deficient, maintenance applications
are usually a safe bet. Fifty pounds
of ground limestone. or its equiva-
lent, applied per 1000 square feet
every four or five years will keep
up good lawns. More is needed if
soil is very acid Between 10 and
20 pounds of 10-10-10 fertilizer per
1000 square feet applied evenly
in March or April will stimulate
growth
Rolling will help to smooth out
rough spots. Roll when the soil is
slightly moist, and when the
ground is not likely to be frozen
again.

spring seeding will work, too. For
uniform lawns, its probably best
to reseed with the same kind of

it must be seeded before April l..
For later seeding, try ryegrass.
Many common lawn weeds can
be controlled with 24-D but be

Prescription Given
For Better Lawns

If your lawn looks little sick,
here's a prescription for greener
grass: lime. fertilize, roll, reseed,
and control weeds.
That's the advice of lawn experts
from the University OF Maryland.
The principle causes of ailing
lawns are poor soils, poor quality
seed, too little lime and fertilizer,
and too much trampling
Home owners frequently add to
these troubles by too much of the
wrong kind of care. namely, cutting
the grass too often or giving the
lawn frequent light sprinklings Of
water in dry seasons These help
the weeds more than grass
Right now, early in the season,
is a good time to remedy some Of
these troubles.

A New Dimension
For Foreign Aid

Aid to foreign nations, tempo
rary measure in 1945, seems to have
acquired a permanent set in 1851.
In the past II years, our allies,
friends. quasi-friends and would
be friends have been the recipients
of nearly $50 billion in L. S. assist
ance funds. And the end is not in
sight according to the Presidents
Citizen Advisers on the Mutual Sc
curity Program-the Fairless Com
mittee-whose report was released
last week.
Whereas foreign aid was begun
on provisional basis in humani-
tartan desire to accelerate the eco
monte rehabilitation of Europe fol
lowing World War II, il has now
been expanded to include Asia. the
Near East. the Middle East. and
Latin America. The Fairless Com
mittee concludes that these pro-
grams have been necessary and
sound. and that they must be con-
tinued for an indefinite period. Ii
warns that collective security costs
are moi temporary, and that there
can be no relaxation Threading
through the Committees report is
the thought that mutual or collec-
tive security" must be extended 10
the four corners Of the globe, SO
long as the Soviet bloc continues
to seek the destruction of the free
world"
In this single sense those dedi-
Gated to the proposition of liberty

ing with which to quibble But.
what of the other side OF the same
coin? Is there not a limit of our
financial capacity to continue these
benevolences ad infinitum? Quite
obviously, the answer is yes" Basic
in the communist creed is the as
sertion that Soviet Russia will COM
pei the United States to spend it
self into bankruptcy. The present
levels of our Federal budget and
national debt offer little comfort
in rebuffing this dictum.
The conclusions of the Fairless
Committee, | fear, will not still the
increasing skepticism of the Ameri-
can public with regard to foreign
assistance Unquestionably, the
Committees recommendation for
administrative savings; against the
channeling of aid through the
United Nations; and for the en-
couragement of private investment
abroad will be popularity received
But, among others, the recommen-
dations for additional expenditures
and for a review by the Congress
every two years rather than an
nually will not be widely applauded
In the name of national sOlvency
and fiscal stability, if for no other
reason, these programs must be di-
minished. The patience and gener-
osity of the American taxpayer is
not limitless. l, for one, will vote
for substantial reduction in our
