Special School
Milk Program

Legislation to extend the speci-
al school milk program until
June 80, 1861, was approved this
week by the Senate Agriculture
and Forestry Committee.
Under the program which is
due to expire this June and
which was inaugurated ia 1854,
financial assistance is provided to
eligible schools and child-care
institutions in the form Of reim-
bursement payments for milk
consumed by the children.
Under an administrative deci-
sion after the original law was
enacted, the program was extend
ed to Alaska following represen-
tations made by the Department
Of Education for Alaska and
Delegate Bartlett. Tn the 1858
fiscal year $7,480 was earmarked
by the Agriculture Department
for this purpose in the Terri
tory. The special milk program is
separate from the school lunch
program for which $58,670 was
available to the Territory during
the 1858 fiscal year.
During the past year children
in 1899 schools throughout the
country consumed approximately
TX billion half-pints of milk IN
der the program at a federal ex-
penditure of $50 and one half
million.

~ JC0 RAuAAI EOfCAo WAAO AAoF {
had trouble propagating your
favorite flowers, vines, shrubs
and even trees the following
suggestions viii help.
Take a deep dish "A inches)
and put about one inch of gravel
in the bottom. Add about two
inches of sand over the gravel
and approximately inch of
water. This will make the water
level nearly at the sand line. If
sand and gravel are not readily
available, expanded mica may be
purchased In most hardware stor-
es. This may be used in place
of both sand and gravel, or mill
ed sphagnum moss may also be
used.
From the plant you wish to
propagate cut off four to six in
ches Of good healthy tip growth
from an area that will not de-
form the parent stock. 1t should
be cut just below node or joint.
Remove leaves on the lower two
inches Of cutting. Treating the
stem of hard to propagate spec
les with a hormone roofing ma
terial may help but this is not
absolutely necessary Wounding
the bark on tree and shrub cut
tings will often speed root for
nation. Many plants can be read
lily started from a single leaf, for
example, the African violet. This
is often advisable because it does
not disfigure the parent stock.
Wet the prepared cutting thor
oughly by dipping. Stick them
upright into the sand about two
inches deep and the same dis
lance apart. After you have all
the cuttings you want to root in
the pan take two pieces Of wire
and make arches slightly higher
than the height of the tallest
cutting.
Place the whole pan into a
large, clear plastic bag. Arrange
the wire arches SO that the bag
is held above the new cuttings.
Now completely close the plastic
bag around the whole propagat-
ing unit with a rubber band.
High humidity will build up in
side the bag and you have an
ideal miniature propagating cham
Der.
Place the chamber in a win
dow but not in direct sunlight.
! A north window is excellent for
this. Keep the temperature Be-
tween so and 10 degrees + for
best results. Extremes in either
direction will reduce your sue
cess. Check the moisture every
10 days. The progagating medium
should be moist but the lower
end Of the cuttings should not
stand continuously in water.
Start off with some of the
easy to root house plants like
Coleus, geraniurn, spiderwort,
wandering Jew Of Sanseveria.
Do not be discouraged. Many re-
quire several weeks. 1t may take
up to two months for some cut
tings to root. If the cutting is
still turgid it is probably alive.
Follow these suggestions and
you will find that even the most
difficult plants can b. rooted.

at him four times when he tried
to arrest him about fire-scorched

been characterized by the presi-

G. r. Darden of Meridian, the

that a report from Medgar Evers
of Jackson, NAACP field secre-
tary for Mississippi, stated that
the fatal bullet entered Mr..
Loves body from the rear.
For this reason, Mr.. Darden
continued, a strong possibility ex-
lists that Mr.. Love did not fire
on the posse, as was stated in at
least one press report.
He might have been running
from the mob or else he was
forced to turn his back while
shot down. Mr. Darden pointed

New EngIanders' Citation Of Senator
James Eastland "Shocks" NAACP

Citation of Senator James O.
Eastland of Mississippi by the Ma
tional Society of New England
Women for his many years of
unselfish devotion to his country
and distinguished service in the
United States Senate" was today
called incredible" and shocking"
by Roy Wilkins, executive secre-
tary of the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored
People.
In a telegram to Mrs. Allen N.
Dryhurst, of West Hartford,
Conn, president of the society,
which honored the senator at a
luncheon in New York at the
Waldorf Astoria hotel, Mr.. Will
kins cited the Mississippian's ma
licious and destructive record" in
Guiding his urging of his consti-
tuentS Ito defy the Government
of the United States and disobey
rulings of the United States SUI
preme Court" The senator was
not present to receive the award.
Senator Eastland, the NAACP
leader told Mrs. Dryhurst, "holds
in contempt nearly half the peo-
pie of his state who he brands
as members of an inferior race"
Further, Mr.. wilkins asserted, the
senator has used his office not
to support the Constitution of the
United States which he is sworn
to uphold nor to advance demo-
cratic principals but to obstruct
constitutional government. He
has used the Senate and the judi
ciary Committee which he heads
as a forum to disseminate racial
hatred. In a speech at Forest, Miss,
on June 26, 1854, he openly boast
ed of breaking the law as chair
man of the Judiciary Committee
by not calling a meeting of the
committee in order to avert con-
sideration of a civil rights bill.
THAT any group of American
women" Mr. wilkins said, land
particularly New England women
should honor such a man is in
credible. We can only attribute it
to ignorance of his malicious and
destructive record, his champion
ship of racial bigotry, his leader
ship in the fight to destroy re-
spect for the Supreme Court and
constituted authority, and his at
tack upon the free press Of the
nation"
MIR. wilkins also pointed out
that only 5000 of nearly half-a-
million Negroes Of voting age in
Mississippi are permitted to vote.
He sent to Mrs Dryhurst a docu-

mented copy of Senator Eastland's
record which, he said, I'VE had
assumed was familiar to every en-
