AcOrns Will Cut
Milk Output

when dairy cows have access
to acorns the farmers pocketbook
loses weight Kent County Agent
George. Vapaa warns. Cows like
acorns and they will search dill
gently for them in the pasture.
Unless they eat large quantities
of acorns, the only serious effect
will be a marked depression of
milk flow.
Unfortunately, the milk flow will
not return to normal when the
cattle are removed from the source
of acorns, he said. The animals
usually don't return to normal pro-
duction until the next lactation.
Large quantities of acorns can
produce severe poisoning, but this
rarely happens.

HIGHWAYS AND
GASOLINE TAXES

Your gasoline retailer, naturally
favors construction of the roads
that the motoring public needs. He
believes in fair and reasonable tax
alton for this purpose but feels that
taxes on gasoline have now reached
unreasonably high levels. He also
believes that all special taxes on the
motoriSt should be used only for
highway purposes. Yet, in this state.
a significant part of highway-user
taxes are diverted away from high
way uses. In addition. last year, out
of every automobile tax dollar col
lected by the Federal Government
from highway users, more than 40
cents went for non-highway pur-
poses. If these automotive tax reve-
nues were dedicated for highway
purposes, there would be no need
for the latest increase in the federal
gasoline tax.

Then, of course, you will no

cows away from acorns before the

check your pasture now"

Senator Kennedy
Wins Nomination. for
President Of u. S.
Senator John Kennedy Of

Senator John Kennedy of
Massachusetts, won the Demo-
cratic nomination for presi-
dency Of the United States on
the first ballot at the national
convention held in Los An
geles. Senator Lyndon john
son, who was the greatest
threat to Senator Kennedy,
was nominated for the vice
presidency, He was urged to
accept by Kennedy. Although
the nomination Of Johnson
was by a~cclamation, it was by
no means popular. The mays"
sounded heavier than t h e
"ayes," but Chairman Cover
nor Collins ruled in favor.
The Virgin Islands delega-
ton was for Kennedy from
the time his candidacy was
first annouced. He received
765 votes and needed only
761, thereupon Senator HUI

Detention Center at the Fort
in Frederiksted. which will be
used for the detention Of Ju-
venile offenders from St. Tho
mas and st. John, as well as
st. Croix.
Early next week all juven-
lies who had previously been
adjudged guilty of an offense,
but who had not been placed
in custody will be immediate
" taken into custody and
placed in the Center. All jul
veniles thereafter convicted
of an offense will likewise be
detained in the new facility if
such action is deemed to be in
the public interest.
It was also decided to seek
funds from the Legislature at
its next regular session for
the purpose Of constructing a
permanent Insular Detention
Center, to be located at Anna's
Hope, st. Croix, and will be
operated by the Department
of Social Welfare in conjunc-
ton with the existing Insular
Training Schools.
It was agreed that the solu-
ton of the juvenile delin-
auency problem in the Virgin
Islands, and the proper adj
ministration of. the detention
centers, calls for the closest
cooperation among the Depart
ments of Social Welfare, Pub
lie Safety, the probation sys-

operation was pledged.
It was agreed that the exist
