ABAViews Sought
In dissemination

The legal status Of o child
born by artificial dissemination
is among the problems of fam
lily law that should concern the
American Bar Association. ac-
cording to Domestic Relations
Judge Godfrey L. Munter.
A decision by a Chicago court
last year ruled that such "he-
terologous children" are not
legitimate.
Judge Munter has urged the
American Bar Association to set
up a section on family law. The
section would study the laws of
marriage and divorce, adop-
tons. child protection and cor
rection as well as the status
of "heterologous children"
The American Bar Associa-
ton will vote on the establish
ment Of a family law section at
a meeting Sunday in New York
City.
Judge Munter. one Of the
three judges in the Domestic
Relations branch of Municipal
Court here. was chairman of
an ABA committee studying the
need for a family law section.
At the ABA House of Dele
gates meeting in Chicago earlier
this year. he reported more
than 500 petitions in support
of the proposed section.

policy announced yesterday by
Chief Assistant Corporation
Counsel Clark King at Num-
cipal Court.
In the past, when food was
sold from a truck or rolling
food stand, the food seller
needed only a selling permit,
Mr.. King said.
Health problems and COM
plants of unfair competition
by stationary restaurants and
foN stores were responsible
for the new policy. Mr.. King
said.
About 200 such mobile food
stands operate in the District,
Mr.. King said. The new policy
also applies to ice cream trucks.

In the future. persons selling
food from trucks or carts must

Engineering before a license is
issued, Mr.. King said.

Soil Bank Base
Called Important
In New Program

Columbus-After you sign con-
tract to participate in the conser-
vation reserve program your coun-
ty ASC committee will establish a
"soil bank base" for your farm.
This base is an important figure
to remember, since it determines
what you can and can't do under
the program and also what your
rate of payments will be. Your
farm soil bank base is the acreage
eligible for conservation reserve at
the full payment rate. This rate
will average about $12 an acre a
year in Ohio. The base includes all
land growing what generally are
considered soil depicting crops.
Land in acreage reserve is a part
of the farm soil bank base, but it
is not eligible for conservation re-
serve payments.
The principle soil bank base
crops in Ohio are corn, all small
grains, soybeans, field peas and
beans. tobacco, vegetables for fresh
marketing or processing, potatoes,
sugar beets and annual grasses
where the seed is harvested.
Your farm soil bank base for
1857 win be determined by adding
your total acreage of soil bank
base crops in 1855 and 1856 to the
number of acres you had in acre.

First Arbor Day
Celebration Was
Held April 1882
by
F. w. Dean
(Ohio State University
Extension Forester)

Ohio was the first state to make
Arbor Day a part of an organi-
zed educational and school tree
planting program.
On April 27, 1882 one of the
greatest tree-planting ceremonies
in the public school system took
place in Eden Park in Cincinnati.
At that time the first American
Forestry Congress ever held in
the United States was in session.
The superintendent of the Cincin-
natl school, John B. Peaslee, ap-
peared before the congress and
suggested that the school children
have part in congress program.
Delegates willingly accepted and
requested the state legislature to
adopt a joint resolution authoriz-
ing Arbor Day. This was done
and the governor, by authority
of the legislature, selected April
27, 1882, the last day of the for
estry congress, as an appropriate
date.
In his proclamation, the COVER
nor called on the citizens and the
schools throughout Ohio to devote
the entire day to tree-planting
and holiday festivities. More than
$4,000 persons, including 1900
school children, took part in that
Cincinnati celebration in 1882 at
Eden Park. 1t was the first time
in history that memorial groves
were dedicated and planted as
part of a planned public program
devoted only to trees and forests.
Among the groves planted were
the Citizens grove, dedicated to
outstanding citizens of Ohio and
the nation; the Presidents grove,
the. Pioneers grove and the Au-
thors' grove, the latter planted
entirely by school children. Many
of the trees are still standing.
Arbor Day now is the last Fri
day in April, so established by
the legislature in 1854.

age reserve in 1856 and dividing by
two.
If weather conditions prevented
you from planting all your soil
bank base crops in the years pre-
ceding your signing of a conserva-
tion reserve contract, some adjust
ments are possible. These adjust
ments can be made upward or
downward for ID abnormal wea-
ther, or (2) change in rotation. In
both the established cropping pat
tern will be considered by your
county ASC committee.
The acres of soil bank base crops
you can harvest in any year is the
farm soil bank base minus the
acreage you placed in conservation
reserve at the regular payment
rate. These are your permitted
acres" Land you place in acreage
reserve in any year of your con-
servation reserve contract is not
charged against the permitted
acreage.
For example, if you have farm
soil bank base of 80 acres and you
place 10 acres in conservation re-
serve, your permitted acreage is
79 acres. If your farm soil bank
base is 100 acres and you designate
IS acres for the conservation re-
serve and 10 acres for acreage re-
serve your permitted acreage is
85 acres providing there are at
least 10 acres of additional eli
gible land.
You can place rotated meadow
land not included in your farm soil
bank base in conservation reserve,
but you won't receive the full pay
ment for it. Instead, you'll receive
payment at ''non-diversion rate"
which is 30 percent of your full
county rental rate.
