THIS AND THAT
By CHARLES E. TRACEWELL

Not only the berries, but
the very tree itself appeals
to them, in some obscure
way known only to birds.
Many of our small parks
have holly trees, and there
are always mockingbirds
around.
1t is not known which sex
Of Knockers stays here in the
winter, but some people have
suggested that it is the male.
The female, they say, has
more sense than to stay
where it is cold.
So she flies South for the
winter, as any sensible bird
would.
They all can, of course.
y
Every mocker that stays
with us is worth our care.
How can we help him in
the cold?
BY providing food he likes
and so will eat.
The seedless raisin is the
best.
With this, supplemented by
such berries as he can find,
he will go through the winter
easily and happily.
He may eat a little suet,
now and then sample a piece
of moistened bread, or a slice
of apple placed where he can
find it.
The feeding table is not
the best place to put a mock
er's winter food.
Better is the bare ground,
or the lawn, or the railing
of a porch.
The sustaining power Of
raisins is well shown in the
way the mocker responds to
them.
He seldom eats more than
one or two at a time, but he
comes back often.
The drawback-there is
usually a drawbacks that
starlings, too, are very fond
of raisins. and these large
and greedy birds gobble 8 or
9 at a time, and then fly
away with bill crammed.
Well, this cannot be helped.
The mocker will dart in, get
his fill, and retire, and then
return.

of the fluid then was in
jected into cancerous rats.
1t blocked further tumor
growth. A similar preparation
from nonfatigued muscles had
no effect.
DR.. Maurice Goldstein Of
Michel Reese Medical Center,
Chicago, reported that Ia
tigued muscle also appears to
Secrete something that COM
bats excess sugar in the
blood, just as does insulin
secreted by the pancreas.
1t already has shown
effects in cases of diabetes,
DR.. Goldstein said. 1t appar-
emily is quite different from
the substance which seems to
combat cancer.
1t seems to "open the
doors" of body cells to take
in excess sugar from the
blood stream.
Disease causing micro
organisms are chemically
different. Chemical analy-
sis may be the quickest and
cheapest way to differenti-
ate between strains whose
superficial appearance is
identical, according to a
joint report to the American
Physics Society by DR.. H. M.
Randall of the University of
Michigan and DR.. D. w.
Smith of the University of
Wisconsin.
The chemical differences,
they say, may be of great i'm
portance in deciding on drugs
for treatment.
A notable case in point,
according to the report, con-
Germs the organisms causing
human tuberculosis. Up to
six years ago nearly all cases
were attributed to one strain
OF tubercle bacillus especially
adapted to humans. It was
recognized that a few cases
were caused by other strains
particularly adapted to cattle
or birds.
Tests Show Difference
But beginning in 1854, ac-
cording to the report, there
has been an increasing
awareness that a substantial
proportion Of patients with a
disease resembling tubercu-
losiS in all clinical respects
actually are infected with a
kind of bacillus different
from any previously recog-
nized. Notably, it will not
infect animals other than
man, it resists chemicals
which kill the three hitherto
known tuberculosis agents.
and it has a different growth
pattern.
From all outward appear
ances this organism is physi-
cally the same as the long,
recognized human bacillus.
but, the report pointed out,
chemical tests have shown a
marked difference and have
made possible differentiation
OF four types of the new or
ganism.
The chemistry of micro
organisms may well deter
mine the type Of drugs which
will kill them, and thus the
field Of chemical identifica-
tion opens wide vistas in fu-
ture medicine. At present,
1t was stressed, this chemical
analysis is cumbersome and
expensive, but there are
prospects of great improve
ment as the value becomes
more apparent.

Who Is Eligible
10 Vote In July
Wheat Referendum

Just who is eligible to vote in
the July 81 referendum on 1861
wheat marketing quotas was to-
day explained by Chairman AL
fred Olsen of the County Agri-
cultural Sterilization and Con-
servation committee
According to Mr.. Olsen, any
grower in a commercial wheat
state who will produce more than
Is acres of wheat as grain in 1861
will be eligible to cast a ballot
in the quota vote.
Growers who will have smaller
wheat acreages in 1861 and those
who are taking part in the feed
wheat program are not eligible
to vote, since the wheat from
such farms would not be subject
to marketing penalties under a
quota program.
Chairman Mr.. Olsen reminded
farmers that those who vote in
the July 81 referendum will be
the ones who decide what kind
of program will be in effect for
the next wheat crop. He urges
that every eligible voter cast
his ballot, so that the result may
truly reflect the desires of grow
ers themselves.
At least two-thirds of the total
votes cast must be favorable if
the 1861 wheat marketing quota
is to remain in effect.

a many sided myth: the Myth that

In the first place, the man was
a fraud. He wasn't 115 years old
and didn't serve In the Confederate
Army. Even II his tale Of service
In that Army had been true II
wouldn't have stamped him as q
hero. It would have downgraded
him to the rank Of a dope, or q
dupe, who fought to preserve q
slave system that was justified by
a tissue Of lies and brutality. II
his side, the slave side, had won
the victory could only have brought
untold suffering to millions of Ne
groes, continued degradation to
poor whites and the monetary
preservation of the worst slave
system ever devised by man.
Yet Andrew williams was hailed
as a hero in life and in death. His
body lay in state. The governor
Of Texas paid him homage. A
southern senator mourned about
the Lost Cause. Newspapers every
where shed an inlIy tear, or two,
over the death Of what they called
the Last Survivor, although all of
them knew that his story Of war

HELPING OR OBSTRUCTING?
Aside from the politics, the ser
ious advocates Of civil rights are
worried about other possible ef-
fects Of Rogers action. Perhaps
his action was not frivolous, but
what he has clearly done Is to start
a brand new argument just when
it seemed some progress was being
made towards enactment of a fair
to-middling rights bill.
This is exactly the kind Of ap-
proach the presidential Civil Rights
Commission sought to avoid. Its
eminent members-Dean Robert G..
Storey Of Dallas, Father Hesburgh
! Of Notre Dame University, DR..
John Hannah Of Michigan State
and their associates - may not
have moved speedily enough to
satisfy civil rights advocates.
But they did demonstrate a
sense Of responsibility by coming
up with their proposals last Sep
TENDER, 50 that they could be ex-
amined in a calm atmosphere free
from presidential politics. Rogers
did just the opposite.
Against this background 1t is
not difficult to understand the
feelings Of Clarence Mitchell,
Washington representative Of the
NAACP, who has devoted his en-
tire life to the civil rights cause.
In discussing the general state
of affairs, he said:
What is happening p that
the Republicans and Democrats are
both trying to get an advantage,
and all that results IL that civil
rights Is getting a kick in the
pants"
What Mitchelrs language may
lack In eloquence, 1t makes up In
accuracy.

about winning equal voting rights
for Negroes in the South.
The heavy-thinkers in the back
rooms have momentarily laid aside
their contracts put down their
poker hands and come to the con-
clusion that there is some mileage
in the question Of civil rights. 1"
This is not a matter Of passion,
nor outrage at the Mack Charles
Parker lynching. It is a cold-blood-
ed decision, made to garner votes.
As such, it seems to me, it is per-
fectly proper to examine the likely
effects Of the latest proposal by
Attorney General Rogers.
Rogers has virtually superseded
the President's Commission on
Civil Rights by rejecting out-of-
hand its recommendation for tenn
porary Federal Registrars His own
proposal for US. Voting Referees
may have merit; but the way he
went about injecting it into the
civil rights debate leads to the in
evitable conclusion that politics,
not civil rights, were dominant in
his thinking.
II this assumption is correct
and even Rogers could not sup
press a laugh when asked at a
recent press conference about his
timing - then two questions in
Eevitably follow:

VIII 1t help or hinder the cause OF
