s. h5ala II is interesting, though
not particularly unusual, that
colored students in our unscgre-
gated high school-both boys and
girls-have been outstanding con
tributors TO what we are proud
to call the Modesto spirit in
speech, athletics. music, drama
ties, scholastic honors, journalism
student government-every acti-
witty in which We take part aa
young depeloping citizens.
What is important, 1t seems to
us, is the terrible limitations of
freedom which you suffer. We
have the right to judge fellow
students on their own merits.
Nobody is forced to like or to
dislike anybdy. OF course we
have our own likes and dislikes
and we are probably as wrong
and as unfair in making our
Judgments as anybody else. But
they are our own judgments. We
are free to decide for ourselves.
We are terribly old fashioned
here in Modesto. We still think
that the Declaration OF hide
pendence and the Constitution OF
The United States Of America
mean what they say. We still
think that all of us were created
equal in the sight of God and
that every one of us is innocent
until proven guilty. We have
found that these old fashioned
ideas have served US well. We
don't believe that it is proper
to classify student as ia
whether he Is Mongoloid, Neg
roid, or Caucasoid any more than

Sussex Leader Says
Present Drought Worst

Martin o. Carey, farm superin-
tendent of the Sussex Correctional
Institution near here, said this
week that he has been farming in
Sussex County for so years and did
not recall drought as severe as
the one now in progress.
He said that in 1880, there was
bad drought but it came later in
the summer and so did not do as
much damage as this present
drought.
Mr.. Carey said that no sweet
corn had been. produced for hu-
man consumption at the prison,
though it had been planted three
times and that the corn now grow
ing for feed on the 100 acres de-
veloped by the prison would be
totally valueless unless there was
rain within a few days.
He showed ears of corn that
were only cobs, without enough
moisture to grow any kernels and
fourth the size of regular ear
of corn. The stalks themselves
are one-third below normal in size
and have turned brown half way
up.
Preston Townsend, vice presi-
dent of Townsend, Inc, who grow
5000 acres of corn as well as soy
beans, said that their corn had
been badly affected but that he be-
lieved rain in few days would
save it.
I'VE haven't yet faced the pos
sibi1ity of losing the CROP he re-
marked. 1--WE are hoping for
rain" -
He said that the soy beans had
held up better than the corn.
The cattle, too, are suffering
from dried pastureland
Alden Short of the Georgetown
area, who has a herd of prize Hol-
stems said that he had to begin
feeding them hay at milking time
He explained that he had lad a
small crop of hay earlier in the
season., presumably to store
agaiffist the winter Lack of. fresh
pasture. - Sac F. f..
Mr.. Short said that the heat al
ways cuts back production to some
extent but the change in feeding
habits coming at the same time
produces a great cut-back..
Milford chronicle., 1957-07-26
Washington
Letter
Candle-Iighter


With the announcement of a
$4,000 man cut-back in the U. S.
armed forces the need for beefing
up NATO grows more apparent.
And that reminds US: What ever
happened to that resolution calling
for the admission of Spain to Ma
TO, which was passed by the House
last March under the leadership
of Rep. Hugh d. Scott, Republican
f Pennsylvania?
In pressing for its passage, Mr..
Scott pointed out that such a mea-
sure would seal the Western de-
tense line from the North Sea to
the Mediterranean, that security a
gainst the Communists is the over
riding mutual problem of the ma
tions of the free world, and that
mutual defense link with Franco
involved no endorsement of his in
ternal political philosophers. He re-
iected the idea that such an alli-
ance was a bid for help at any
price. Rather, he said, it simply
recognized the demand of the A
merican people that their Govern
ment face the facts of life-in-a-
divided-world.
The Communists, argued Scott,
would block any realistic efforts
at disarmament and sneer at NATO
as a deterrent to war as long as
Spain is kept at arms length by
the organization presumably dedi-
Gated to the preservation of peace.
All in all, Rep. Scott insisted, the
honest acceptance of Spain as a
sympathetic ally would cut the cost
of Western defense to U. S. tax
payers, revitalize the sagging spine
of the U. S. as NATO's guiding
force and give Russia more gen.
uine interest in the diarmament
proceedings.
But the Scott resolution Ian
guishes in the Senate while the
London talks become more desul-
tory, and the glaring weakness in
European unity and geographic
solidity remains on view for all
and especially the Reds-tO see.
Why the Senators have failed the
Administration and the American
people in this obvious need is any
9ody's guess. We hear the inane
excuse that since NATO has rocked
along without Spain thusfar, why
stir things up. Others have slyly
intimated that Mr.. Scott introduced
the resolution only to ingratiate
himself with the White House.
This Ia 81 exnIanatiOn won't wash
Rep. Scott is no coat-tail rider, no
sycophant-as Americans, both IN
and out of politics, should remem-
her. It should be remembered that,
n 1948, as chairman of the Re-
publican National Committee, he
had the courage to face up to both
the political skulduggery and the
antrenched position of the New
Deal, and to say to his party: 1t
