Many Of the mysterious
radio stars" points In the
heavens from which radio
waves are emitted and re-
ceived on earth. must be To-
Gated In vast star systems so
many millions OF light years
away that they hardly can
be detected with the most
powerful telescopes.
This has Just been reported
by astronomers OF the Car
neRie Institution Of WASH
ington as q result OF nearly
futile search for identifiable
visible objects which can be
associated with these ennis
sions.
II has been postulated that
these radio stars must rep
resent q total mass In the
universe greater than that OF
all the visible stars and star
systems throughout creation.
Thus far II has been possible
10 associate with the ennis
sions only q few visible OBJ
jects in the i00-billion star
Milky Way galaxy and In
some Of the nearer similar
galaxies. One of these is the
so-called "crab nebula." a
vast dark gas cloud which
Is believed to be the remains
Of a super-explosion OF some
star-one Of the few known
to have occurred In this star
system. Two or three others
have been tentatively identi-
fed with collisions Of galaxies
millions Of light years distant
in space. So far as known
such collisions may be fairly
frequent, as astronomical
events go, In the vast reaches
Of space.
New Apparatus Devised
The fact remains that only
a few out of thousands Of
such sources can be associ-
ated with visible objects.
The Carnegie astronomers
have set for themselves the
job Of determining distances
Of the radio objects" by ex-
tremely precise determine
ton Of the energies of the
messages" received and
comparing these with such
objects at known distances
as the "crab nebula." For
this purpose and also for
more precise determination
of position new receiving APP
paratus has been devised, &C

Needles BroyhM

Last February, the COP
CONGRESSMAN from Northern
Virginia, in promising an &C
tive campaign for reelection,
said. This time I'm. not go
ing to turn the other cheek
to things said by my OPP
ponents. They will be held
accountable for any state
ments they make"
The Star stated: I'm the
last campaign, Mr., Broyhill
was criticized for declining to
join in debates"
The implication that Re-
publican Broyhill would de-
bate the issues publicly in
1858 now has been demol-
ished. A recent column in
the Northern Virginia Sun
quotes the COP Congress-
man as fatty refusing to at
tend any joint candidates
meetings this fall.
This is one of the great
distinctions nationally be-
tween the Democratic and
Republican parties today. 1t
has not always been so. In
honesty, I must add that not
all Virginia Republicans agree
with Mr.. Broyhill's refusal
to debate the issues.
Here in Northern Virginia,
we Democrats discuss the is
sues publicly with rival DEM
ocrats in a party primary
campaign. then again in the
. fall, against Republican OPP
position The Republican
nominees are generally Sc
lected in a "smoke-filled
room"
The Democratic method is
a costly and Understanding
way to bring issues and con-
fiicting points of view before
the public. AS a member of
the Tenth District Demo-
cratic Committee, I firmly
believe the people of North
ern Virginia are entitled to
this voice in their party af-
fairs and in choosing their
representatives in Govern
ment.
BY declining to debate with
our Democratic nominee
whoever that person may
be on July 49, the COP Con-
gresham in effect tells his
supporters that his view of
the issues must be accepted
take it or leave it!
Surely Northern Virginia
voters now realize that in the
10th Congressional District,
the Democratic Party is the
party of the people.

the door a bit larger. 1t may
be realized that the squirrel
can enlarge any size entrance.
AS for the placement be-
ing low, this is true, but
there are few places a cat
cannot get to, if it wants to.
What saves the birds is that
so many house cats do not
want to. This may seem
heretical. to those who hate
cats. but it is the result Of
much observation. There are
whole batteries of cats that
do not kill birds. despite the
common impression that they
do. Many do not. The desire
seems to have been bred out
OF them by generations of
living indoors and being fed
and cared for in the best
New Deal" traditions. The
new deal for cats came in
centuries ago. in ancient
Egypt. where they we're wor-
shipped as minor gods.
Today, in many a home,
they are still worshipped, if
not by bowling and genuf1ec-
ton, at least by good care,
including proper food and
medical attention.
The sooner a bluebird house
is put up, the better, so that
the human smell can be
blown off it. 1t is best not
painted at all.
Once up, the bluebird house
awaits the bluebirds, but here
so many factors enter that
the patient bird lover must
not be put out of counte-
nance if no bluebirds come.
We have had a beautiful
house up for a quarter of a
century without any takers.
1t was the product of care
full New England craftsman
ship, and the birds ought to
like IL hiit tbau boyo,,,t
Maybe some of these godlike
cats have scared them away?
Well, perhapsl But it is rath-
err foolish, on their part, be-
cause these old lumberbuses
Of cats wouldn't hurt a fly.

Old Creamo. "They have too
many feathers. I prefer mice.

Remember Mccarthy

May z Will marx the frSt
anniversary Of the death OF
Senator Joseph r. Mccarthy.
Every day brings fresh EVIL
dence of the correctness Of
his appraisal Of the Com
munist menace, which was so
consistently belittled by the
makers of policy in our Gov
eminent in the 20 years fol-
lowing diplomatic recognition
of the USSR in 1888. If our
Republic endures, Mccarthy
will finally be recognized as
one Of the great patriots Of
our age. If it does not en-
dure, but becomes SocialiZed
or SoVietized, as now seems
probable, his memory will, OF
course. be suppressed and
forgotten.
The great sin Of Mccarthy,
for which there could be no
expiation, was that in his
single-minded war against
communism and Communists
he found traces of red on too
many sacred COWS Of the
liberal movement. For that
he was destroyed. The irony
of the situation is that Nc
Carthy was built up into a
formidable public figure
chiefly by adverse publicity
which was intended to ruin
him. In this din of denuncia-
ton his enemies so often dis
played precisely the charac-
teristics which they imputed
to him with such venom. that
they succeeded only in dis
crediting themselves more
than they discredited him.
Even in death, it may be re-
called, the only comment one
network could think of was
to show on our screens the
phony blubbering of an aging
attorney crying Have you no
decency, no pity?" The ques-
ton should have been di-
rected to all those who could
not, and even now cannot, let
the man rest in peace, but
continue to fail his memory
with pathological fury.
Another Wisconsin Sena-
tor, the senior Lafollette. who
escaped by a hairs breadth
the censure of the Senate Of
his time, and who was as
rough as Mccarthy on wit
nesses appearing before his
committees, was not long ago
voted by the present Senate
as one of the five outstanding
Senators of this century. 1t
could happen again. Indeed,
one wonders how many Sem
ators who voted to CON
denim" Mccarthy already
wish they had had no part
in that artificially contrived
hysteria.

Those who succeeded in
destroying that great patriot
Senator Joseph Raymond

his enemies to be reminded
of their guilt.

THIS AND THAT
By CHARLES {. TRACEWELL

why do bluebirds like
raisins better than currants?"
asks Mrs. M. l.. T. Of Fair
fax. Va.
The only reason we can
think Of is that the seedless
raisins taste better 70 them
There is no reason, really,
for depriving the winged
creatures of the universal
taste and distaste, liking and
not liking. preferring and not
preferring.
They are almost human. in
many ways, so we will allow
them to be human in this.
The raiSin is chockfull Of
goodness, despite its sticki-
ness. 1t packs a powerhouse
of food value, including iron,
which probably does a bird
as much good as a human.
y 4 4
This correspondent says
she cuts the raisinS in half
and "plumps" them in hot
water.
Neither Of these acts is
necessary, II the seedless sort
are used.
Occasionally. a bird may
get a whole raisin stuck in
its throat, but here nature
takes over and helps the bird
out with it.
There is no way to prevent
a greedy startling from seiz-
ing six raisinS at once.
If an equally greedy COM
panion tries to take the last
one from the first birds bill,
the latter may swallow the
whole pack at once.
We watched a startling in
the yard the other morning
that may have had this hap
pen to him.
He was jumping UP and
down, repeatedly. about a
foot of the ground. with a
grotesque movement Of the
wings.
Everything this one does
is comical, so we thought
nothing of it at first. but as
he kept on. we realized some
thing must be the matter
with him.
Just as we started out to
offer him help-which prob
ably would not have been &C
cepted-he few away with a
great swish of wings.
If it we're a too sticky
raisin, the offending sub
stance had gone on down.

Mrs. T. wants to know
about a bluebird house.
The proper size. authori-
ties tell us. is floor. 5 by 5
inches: depth of box, 8
inches; diameter of hole, / p
inches; hole above floor. 6
inches; height Of box above
ground, 4 to 10 feet.
A bluebird house can be
bought, but you will have to
find the place. and be sure
you are getting a box with
the proper measurements.
The only way to be sure is
to take a tape measure along
and carefully measure the
affair. Not that bluebirds
carry rulers with them. but
they do know what they like.
The experts also tell us
that the common sparrow
likes this size box, too, and
will invade, unless the house
is in a location it does not
like.
So put the new bluebird
house rather low, about 5
feet from the ground, and
preferably in a sunny or open
situation on a fence post or
the like.
We have seen both star
lings and squirrels take over
bluebird houses. =

There should be enough Mis-

acreage without importing seed
of unknown origin. The cotton
seed situation looks much better
than it did several weeks ago.
1t is better to plant seed Of

Why risk the possible danger of

Grass Firms
On TheirAds
BY the Associated Press

Two Baltimore firms have
been accused by the Federal
Trade Commission of grossly
exaggerated advertising claims
for the zoysia grass they sell.
Named in a commission COM
plant yesterday were Zoysia
Farm Nurseries. Inc. and
Green Beauty zoysia Co.
The commission charged the
companies with misrepresent-
ing the rate at which their
grass grows and the recogni-
ton given the product by the
Agriculture Department.
Zoysia Farm sells the grass
in plugs TO the general public
by mail order. Green Beauty
sells it as sprigs to distributors
and retailers.
The commission said that,
contrary to advertising state
ments, the plugs have neither
been approved by the United
States Government nor any of
its agencies nor proved to be
superior to other grasses.
The commission also chal-
lenged claims that each plug
"multiplies itself so times in
a few months"
FTC said two or three grow
ing seasons are usually required
to cover an established lawn
through multiplication of either
the plugs or the sprigs.
