New Airstrip
Continued from page one

The idea for an air strip
actually started last year when
the local group decided that the
Garvin farm would make an
ideal location in Noble county.
They discussed the matter with
Mr.. Garvin, who was very inter
ested as well as two of his sons
The project was started then
but due to lack of funds, its
construction was halted until
this spring when additional
financing was secured.
The services of Contractor Del
mar Porter, of Caldwell route g.
were secured and the project is
now nearing completion.
The air strip is located on the
right side of county road num-
ber 7 near the home of Glenn
King and Oscar King on Cald-
we'll route.
DR.. John B. Jenkins has pur-
chased a small air craft and it is
expected that he will be among
the first to use the field. Both
DR.. Jenkins and his wife, Joan
Jenkins, have been taking flying

Plan "0pen House"
For New Home

Sunday, May 20, the Smith
Lumber Company from Barnes
vile will hold open house at
their newly constructed home at
836 Walnut street, Caldwell.
The new home was built for
Mrs. Richard Briggs, of Caldwell
route 3 and she plans to move in
Monday, May 80.
The three bedroom house was
started in April and after ap-
proximately six weeks of steady
work the structure is complete
1t is partially pre-fab home
as some of the structure is put
together at the Smith Mill. The
most appealing factor about
this home is that it is priced
economically for the newly weds
or those in the average income
bracket.
The public has been invited tc
attend the open house for this
wonder home" and see fol
themselves the economy OF

In Need of q New Home

For more than three-fourthS of
century the Family and Child Services,
community welfare agency, has been
lending helping hand to deserving
families of Washington. At first known
as the Associated Charities, the organi-
cation, now an important member of
the United Givers Fund, provides coun-
selling on family problems of many sorts.
Foster care is offered to children who
need a home for limited periods, an
adoption service is conducted, summer
camps are maintained for boys and girls
and numerous other services are rem
dered voluntarily to the needy.
Now the Family and Child Services
itself is in urgent need of better home.
It's main Offices at 1922 Eleventh street
NV. are dilapidated, outmoded and un-
fit for further occupancy. Other activ-
tiles are scattered over the city. To
meet this emergency-one that has been
developing for long time-the F. and
c. S. has launched a drive for SAL 900
with which to build a new home, one
adequate to the requirements of such a
vital organization. The building cam
paign has the approval of the UGF. It
merits the generous support of the
whole community.

problems. Regardless Of what happens
to the vetoed bill, however, the Federal
Governments great interest in remov-
ing filth from the Potomac River is
something special. Here the situation
is unique. A clean Potomac is as essen
tial to the successful operation of the
Government as it is to local industry
and local residents. In a sense, the
Federal establishment and the District
Government, which is under Federal
control, are the major local" COM
munitieS, concerned with Potomac pol
luton. AS such, the Potomac River
merits special attention of the Federal
Government and special aid from Fed
eral sources. The problem of sewage
disposal at the Dulles International Air
port is a good case in point.

Hold Your Hats, Boys!

1t has been said that truth, crushed
to earth, shall rise again. We trust that
this maxim, and truth, too, will survive
the dreadful battering which lies ahead
in this political year. But there is no
occasion for soaring optimism.
Two weeks ago the February 10
issue of Battle Line, a publication of
the Republican National Committee,
appeared on the scene. 1t was devoted
to an analysis" of the performance of
Stuart Symington when he was Sec
retary of the Air Force. What that
issue of Battle Line did to the truth
shouldn't happen to a dog. Truth, or
even anything resembling the truth,
was tortured, twisted and distorted be-
yond possibility of recognition.
Now it is the turn of the Democratic
Digest, official organ of the Democratic
National Committee, which purports in
its current issue to set forth the record"
of Vice President Nixon. The Digest
editors present their analysis of the
Nixon record" under the caption, MIN
BILE Nixon and the Old Guard" and they
wind up with this piouS assertion: "It is
the hope of the editors that this issue
of the Democratic Digest will diSpel
any fog that might still exist about Mr..
Nixon
In our view, the safest prediction
OF 1860 is that no fog will be dis
PEELED by the Democratic Digest. The
stated hope of its editors will not be
realized. Instead, they have obScured
the truth in a fog to end all fogs-a
fog compounded of Misrepresentation,
out-of-context presentation and slick
inSinuation.
1t is possible, of course, that the
editors of both Battle Line and the Di-
geSt will have little interest in our view
of this matter. Still, truth crushed to
earth, and even the voters, may need a
helping hand. So, with special refer
ence to the latter, we offer the following
suggestions: This is the open political
season; the reckless riddling of the tar
gets has just begun it will get worse
before it gets better-and the sensible
voter will hold onto his hat and take
all of these partisan salvoS with a great
big grain of salt.

Declaration of BrosiIio

The joint statement issued by Presi-
dents Eisenhower and KubitSchek from
BraSilia, the new Brazilian capital which
is rising in the wilderness, sets forth
program of lofty aims and intentions.
The two leaders declare against
racial discrimination and any attempt
to curb religious freedom or freedom of
expression. On the economic side, the
statement calls for intenSiflcation of
measures to combat underdevelopment
in vast area of the American con-
tinent, and expresses confidence that
"the hemisphere crusade for economic
development will lead toward greater
prosperity and harmony for ALL"
These, of course, are highly gen.
eralized pronouncementS, with no indi-
cation as to specific implementing meas
ureS which the two men may have in
mind. 1t is statement, in short, which
is calculated to raise hopes among peo-
pie who live at depressed level, but
which does not offer any blueprint by
which such hopes may be fulfilled.
There is certain element of danger
in this, a risk that high expectations
may eventually founder on the facts Of
economic life. One of these facts is
that the United States, alone, cannot
pull its hemisphere neighborS up to a
prosperous economic level We can help,
but the other nations must contribute
their full share to the effort. And in
the past one of the difficulties has been
that this reciprocal contribution was not
adequately forthcoming.

Mr.. Nehru Under Attack

There is no visible evidence to sup
port the accusation that Prime Minis
ter Nehru has betrayed" India or its
interests by offering to meet with Com
munist China'S Premier Chou En-lai for
discussion of the frontier dispute
between the two countries. Mr.. Nehru
Indignantly denied the charge after it
was made by the leader of the opposi-
ton Peoples Socialist Party.
Mr.. Nehru'S consultation offer was
contained in a note delivered to Peiping
earlier this month-a note which re-
proved the Chou government for failing
to take steps which would ease tensions
and improve the climate for summit
conversations, repeated unequivocally
Mr.. NehruS earlier reflections of Chinese
assertions that the disputed boundary
never has been legally Defined, and
which stated that actual negotiations
on PeipingS terms "are not possible -.
for the moment do not see any COM
mon ground" In conclusion, however,
the Indian Premier expressed regret at
deterioration Of relations between the
two Asian neighborS and added that
"it might be helpful for us to meet"
He suggested New Delhi as the place,
and late March as the time
1t is worth noting, too, that Mr..
Nehru previously had declined a pro-
poSal by Mr.. Chou that they meet in
Rangoon-a refusal based upon the
Indians expressed unwillingness to go
outside his own country for such a pur-
pose and his rejection, again, of the Red
Chinese territorial claims as set forth
in the Chou proposal.
Actually, Mr.. Nehru is faced with
situation where discussion at the sum-
NIT may offer the only current hope of
settlement. Approximately $4,000 square
miles of frontier territory are in dispute.
Red Chinese forces control most of the
area and there is no evidence that India
has the military power to throw them
out. In these circumstances, and in the
inherent India China rivalry for Asian
leadership, it is quite likely-as Mr..
Nehru mentioned to the Indian Parlia-
ment-that tensions between the two
countries will continue for many years.
Against that background, the Indian
Premier is taking reasonable position
in holding that the door to discussion"
should be kept open. Such an attitude
should not be interpreted as signal of
surrender.

ANotionoI Health Problem

President ElSenhoWer'S veto of the
water-pollution bill is disappointment
to communities here and all over the
country where plans had been made
to expedite with Federal help the
decontamination of the Nations rivers.
However, if the veto stands, it will not
mean that Federal aid for the con-
struction of sewage treatment plants
and other antipollution facilities will
be cut off. The rejected measure was
designed to increase the amount of
Federal funds allotted under the 1856
Antipollution Act, so the effect of the
veto will be only to hold the aid at
current levels.
The President is right, of course,
In contending that the cleaning up of
streams and rivers is primarily a re-
sponsibility of the States, counties and
cities served by the waterways. But,
as he said in his message to Congress,
our rivers and streams are priceless
National asset" any pollution of which
poses "a threat to the health and we'll
being of all our citizens" That being
the case, the question is to what extent
the Federal Government should aid the
States and localities in protecting this
National asset from becoming health
hazard to the people.
The administration opposed adop-
ton of the 1856 Federal-aid law, but
has co-operated in making it an effec-
tive instrument in the cleaning up of
many major waterways. The House
Public Works Committee has reported
that from 1856 to 1858 contract awards
for sewage-treatment plants rose IS per
cent above the amount of the awards
during the four-year period from 1852
to 1856. More than $4,000 miles of rivers
and streams have been wholly or par
TALLY cleaned up as a result.
This record weakens the Presidents
argument that any increase in Federal
aid might tempt municipalities to
delay essential water-pollution abate-
ment efforts while they waited for
Federal funds" On the contrary, local
efforts to eliminate or reduce resi-
Dental and industrial pollution have
been greatly stimulated by Federal aid
already granted.
The District, Virginia and Mary
land would have received substantial
additional Federal funds for use in
solving the Potomac Rivers pollution
