THE PETAL PAPER

/ -BOY"-Next to the words "Su-
preme Court there is nothing
that infuriates the Dixie Demo-
Gratis these days like the name
Herbert Brownell. They blame
him for all their woes. They in
sist that for the first time there
is a chance that even a filibuster
won't prevent passage of civil
rights bill.
And they are right, at least in
believing that the bill is Brown
ellis baby. There are lots of other
Republicans who are taking bows
for it, but the fact is that it was
Brownen who persuaded the
President, Vice President Nixon
and Senate Republican Leader
Knowland that this should be
civil rights year..
The liberal Democrats didn't
need any persuading. Sens. Paul
Douglas, Hubert Humphrey and
House Judiciary Com nit t e e
Chairman Emanuel Celler have
been fighting this battle for years.
But they couldn't get anywhere
until Brownell became convinced
that the Republicans ought to
line up solidly behind it.
The Southerners claim their
real argument with Brownell is
not over the ''right-to-vote" but
with the ambiguous language in
the bill which would give the At
torney General authority to inter-
vene in school indignation cases.
He was questioned closely about
this in hearings of the House Jul
dietary Committee.
He was asked how he would act
if a Negro said he was entitled to
attend an integrated school but
was being denied that right by
the authorities. would you I'M
tiate an injunction against the
school board 2" questione1
wanted to know.
His reply did not reassure the
Dixie Democrats.
81 don't want to mislead you,
| Brownell answered. II am not
trying to avoid answering your
question. 1 have found in my own
4 experience that it is very unwise
to give answers to a Hypothetical
case of that kind because there
are always special circumstances
This is the answer that has the
Southern lawmakers up in arms.

The Administration, according

prepared to make one minor
concession to the South. 1t will

House-passed Celler bill. The clar-

the right-to-vote law and also the
Supreme Court school indignation

Some Southern Senators have
worked themselves into frenzy

call out the armed forces in the

County Turns
Down Plan to
Run Rockville
City Library

A central library should be
built by the county in Rockville
"at the earliest opportunity the
Montgomery County Library
Board has recommended.
The proposal came in a report
that also recommended rejection
of an offer from the Rockville
Library Association to operate a
library for the county in the city
on contract basis.
The report was sent to County
Manager M. L. Reese.
Mr.. Reese says a central library
will probably be included in the
planned extension of the Rock
vile County Building. He says he
doesn't know when the extension
will be started.
G. D. Gull. president of the
Rockville Library Association,
says he will have no comment on
the rejection of his groups offer
until he's read the report.
The association offered to cir
culate county books and other ma
terials but wanted to remain out
side the county system. Under
the plan the county was to pro-
vide cataloging and purchasing
services.
The association asked that any
county taxes collected in Rock
vile and earmarked for library
service be either used in the city
or refunded to the city govern.
ment.
The Rockville library is now
run by the private association.
1t is largely supported by an an
nual contribution from the Rock
vile government. This year the
contribution is $4,000.
Some city officials have indi-
Gated they may cut off the library
The Rockville Library Associa-
tionhas rejected several offers to
join the county system. Only the
libraries in Rockville and Takoma
Park remain outside the county,
system.

Keep Your
Tractor Warm

Running tractor engine when
it's cold is an unnecessary waste
of fuel, says Guy w. Gienger,
University of Maryland agricultu.
raj engineer.
Tests have shown that in a
tractor operating at 100 degrees,
gasoline consumption is about 25
per cent more than when the en-
CINE runs at 100 degrees. Cylin-
der wear will increase about II
per cent and there'll be about an
8 per cent power loss, he says.
So, when you put anti-freeze
solution in your tractor radiator
for the winter, make sure you
have some kind of thermostat in
the cooling system to keep the
engine warm.
Frequent starts and stops in
the winter when a tractor cools
off quickly will hurt a tractor
engine. Usually it's better and
and cheaper in the long run to
let the engine run when you're
cleaning barns and using the trac.
tor for chores.
1t isn't only wear that gets a
cold engine. Moisture that collects
in cold engine will damage
bearings and cylinder walls.
About a gallon of water vapor is
produced for every gallon of fuel
used in your tractor.
If you have a thermostat in
your tractor, it's still a good idea
to cover the bottom of the radia-
tor in extremely cold weather.
That will prevent the coolant that
is returning to the tractors en-
CINE block fro mbeing cooled to
too low a temperature.
