We Don't Want Educated Robots
As End Product Of Our Schools

BILLINGS-''To say that Sputnik
does not jeopardize immediate con-
struction of Yellowtail Dam would be
to disregard the hysterical facts of
American political life", Willard E.
Fraser told the Huntley Project Lions
Club in Worden, last Tuesday eve
ming.
"The hysteria coming out of Wash
ington-from nearly every branch of
government save only the Supreme
Court-can do the American nation
more harm than a dozen 'Sputniks'
if it is allowed to proceed on the
course it now bids fair to follow"
Fraser said. Naturally, we cannot
let 'Sputnik' go unchallenged, but to
do so at the expense of a well-rounded
economy would hardly best serve our
national welfare"
ITO shuttle all our young brains
into mathematical and scientific
fields would be the equivalent of
putting all our eggs in one basket,
and would result in pretty sterile
economy and nation. We must not
educate with robots as the end
product; we must continue to edu-
cate for a full citizenship"
projects such as our Yellowtail
Dam have-if anything even
greater right to the positive atten-
ton of our national legislators than
ever before, because it is such prof.
ects as Yellowtail that will continue
to give us a firm base from which
missile programs now and in the flu
ture must eventually find their fl

Severely Disabled
Should Apply For
S. By Dec. 81

Severely disabled workers SO to IS
years of age who could qualify for
the new social security benefits which
became payable last July, will lose
some of their monthly payments if
they do not apply to their social Sc
curity offices by December 81, 1857,
Stewart j. Thomas, district manager
of the Helena social security office,
has announced. The Helena office is
located in Room 606 of the Power
Block.
Qualified workers who make appli-
cation for disability insurance bene-
fits by the end of December can be
paid benefits back as far as the month
of July, Thomas said. After Deem
Der, no back benefits can be paid.
To be eligible for social security
disability insurance benefits between
SO and IS years of age, worker
must have disability so severe that
he cannot do any substantial gainful
work. In addition, he must have social
security credit for at least 5 out of
the 10 years before he became dis
abled, including at least a year and
a half out of the years just before
his disability began.
For those who meet the require
ments, disability benefits can begin
with the 18th month of disability, but
no earlier than July 1857, the first
month for which the new benefits
became payable. Mr.. Thomas points
out, however, payments to disabled
persons who apply for these benefits
after December 81 of this year may
begin no earlier than the month in
which their applications are received,
no matter how long they have been
disabled.

Hill to Push
Anew for School
Oil Funds
From LABOR'S DAILY

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Sen. Lister
Hill DALAI has announced that he
will reintroduce a modified form of
his Observation-Disclosures,
which was defeated in 1853. The pur-
pose of the measure, which will prob
ably be introduced as a separate bill,
is to pledge to educational use the
federal revenues received from leas-
ing oil-bearing offshore public lands.
These revenues would be put to use
for the financing of scholarships, fell
lowships, laboratories, etc. The fed
eral revenues are not connected with
royalties from the submerged lands
which belong to the state.
Hills amendment of four years ago
was attached to the Outer Continental
Shelf Bill. 1t passed the Senate with
strong bipartisan support, but was
killed in a joint Senate-House COM
mittee on the insistence, Hill claims,
of the Bureau of the Budget.
MEET IMMEDIATE NEEDS
The new measure, Hill says, is to
meet "the immediate needs of the
now long-neglected educational and
national defense emergency which so
many of US tried to offer an unwilling
Eisenhower Administration four years
ago."
The Alabama Democrat estimates
that, had the measure been adopted |
four years ago, the funds now avail
able for education would have exceed
ed $500 million, although production
of oil and gas has only recently be-
gun in the offshore oil lands.
Total royalties from the submerged |
lands owned by the federal govern
ment could reach $40 billion, accord
ing to Hill.

job is to determine just how independ-

regulated the commercial airlines. A
recent report of the House Antitrust
subcommittee charged that in it's Is

airlines' passenger rate structure;
that its members have been cozy with
the industry and that, under its lax
monopoly practices have
flourished in the industry.
that the Federal Power Commits
sion has been the governmental front
for the private utilities; that it doub-
led over backwards to help the Idaho
Power Co. win unjustified subsidies;
that it tried to kill the Hells Canyon

chance to vote on it; that it was neck

Special to PEOPLES VOICE

WASHINGTON, D. C.-When Con-
gress reconvenes next January, the
Eisenhower Administration will be
under the most sustained COMPRESSION
al fire in it's five year history. Two
potent committees will be probing
it's vulnerable underside and provid-
ing high-powered headlines as the
1868 elections approach.
In the Senate, subcommittee
headed by Majority Leader Lyndon
Johnson, himself, will be pelting the
President with political missiles.
Johnson insists that his upcoming
probe of defense policy will not seek
to blame anyone for Americas fail
ure to win the Sputnik race. Instead,
says Johnson, the committee will seek
a constructive program for the fu-
ture. Of course. But anyone who
knows Lyndon must admit the likeli-
hood of such a probe ignoring party
politics is remote.
First of all, Johnson by all indi-
cations has his eye on the Democratic
presidential nomination in 1860. The
investigation hearings could launch
him into his orbit, as the scientists
say. Moreover, another possible Dem
ocratic contender, Sen. Stuart SYM
ington, also will be on the subcom-
mittee. The pressure will be on both
to Guido one another. The result will
be sensational anti-GOP charges, and
steadily increasing pressure for big
ger military spending.
TESTING WIND CURRENTS
Democratic charges that the Re-
publican administration has engaged
in "false economy" and thereby weak
ened the nations defenses are hardly
new. They have been repeatedly ech-
oed by Symington and others, the
last time being just before the Eisen-
hover landslide in 1856. In the past,
as that experience indicated, the
charges have not proved to be good
But a new element has
been added by the increasing signs of
a turn-down in the economy.
With government economists ner-
vously testing the wind currents, the
Democrats may wind up with a happy
conjunction of causes: their demand
for higher military spending would,
at least on the surface, fit in neatly
With the economy's need for bit of ,

Meanwhile another key investiga-
ion-less publicized but no less po- /

attention. Even if overshadowed by {

Fall Hatched Chicks
Appear PrOfitables

Have you considered the possi-
bility of lot of fall Matched chicks
in your poultry program this year?
This question is particularly of i'm
portance to the market egg pro-
ducer, says Ray Lloyd, Asst COun-
ty Agent. 1t is probable that an
early fall hatch of chicks this year
should be a good investment.
According to the reports now in,
there is a great reduction in the
number of flock replacem ant chicks
started this spring compared last
This means that egg prices should
remain high this fall and winter
and should be very favorable dur
ing 1858.
The question of whether or not
to put in the fall flock rests with
the pOultryman. If he is a good
manager he can make some money.
Remember that the fall matched
chicks will have to be confinement
reared throughout They should be-
gin laying in March or April.
Mr. Lloyd suggests that in the
light of the good prospects for egg
prices, this year should be a good
year to have a September hatch
started. Be sure to get good chicks
and follow good management prac-
tices as the fall chicks are harder
to raise than spring chicks. 1t will
also put your brooding facilities
to more use and thus reduce over
head costs and will insure your hav-
ing a supply of eggs to sell entire
year.

Crop Conditions:

Crop Conditions:
Heavy rains during the past
week have been of inestimable
value to late maturing crops but
of little good to more advanced
crops. Corn and tomatoes are both
too far advanced to benefit from
the rain as well as early planted
field limas. Soy beans, late planted
snap beans and field limas will be
the principal crops to respond to
the rain. The most extensive crop
damage from the twO-month-Old
drought occurred in the corn fields,
both sweet corn for processing and
field corn for grain. The sweet
corn harvest was off almost so per-
cent and that which was harvested
was badly infested with earworms.
Field corn dried and withered in
the field and it is estimated that
nearly ia of the corn intended for
grain will either be cut for silo
or the fields abandoned Some late
sweet corn for processing should
benefit from the rain. Several
paintings of late snap beans have
been planted and are out of the
ground However, cool nights and
shorts days will hamper their
growth and a crop can only be
gathered if there is no killing
frost or freeze until mid-OctOber
Other fields which were planted a
little earlier look promising. We
have no record of the acreage 10
cabbage, caulifiower and broccoli
but believe it to be slightly greater
than last year Most fields appear
greatly improved since the rain.
These are fast growing crops which
do well in cool weather and a good
crop should be harvested. Late
apples will be picked starting
about September 10th. Like the
early variety, they will be under
size due TO dry weather Additional
rains should see remaining crops
yielding fair to good harvest.
Labor Situation:
Failure of many crops and the
early completion of the potato har-
vest has produced surpluses of
help in several areas here and in
adjoining states. Delaware crews
are either returning to their homes
in the South or seeking jobs in the
Hudson Valley section Of New York
where there is a heavy apple crop
to harvest. This movement of
workers out of the area could Gre
ate a shortage of bean pickers
should a good late crop develop.
The ExmOre, Virginia, area expects
their fall crop of beans to start
about September 10th and they will |
draw workers from this area. Grow
ers who need late fall help should
make arrangements early.
Watch Those Children!
With the opening of school this |
week, growers will have to make
certain that no children under 16 |
years of age are working on their
farms during the hours in which |
school is in session. Advise your
crew leader and be sure he under
stands the law. This is a provision |
of the Federal Wage and Hour Law. |
Seasonal Employment:
For the period ending August |
Both, there were 4276 seasonal |
workers employed in Delaware. Of |
this number, 1899 were local work
ers; 2185 southern migrants and |
292 Spanish speaking workers. |
1910 were working in food pro-
cessing and 2436 in agriculture. At
the same period last year, there |
were SOB seasonal workers in the |
state.
