pose only-to redeem Virginia
from the wilderness it has been
laboring under for the last
eight years." Mr.. Whitehead
said.
Franklin County Common
wealth's Attorney Virgil H.
Goode. chairman Of the groups
nominating committee, said
the Democrats must fight to
win Virginia from the Dixie
Gratis and Republicans. Vir-
ginia, traditionally a Demo-
cratic State, voted Republican
in both Of President Eisen-
hower's campaigns.
Speakers at the meeting at
tended by about $50 Democrats
at the Pennington Country
Club here repeatedly attacked
the predominant Byrd Demo-
cratic organization which they
asserted led Virginia into the
Republican fold by 10000 votes
in 1852 and 10000 votes in
1856.
Other officers Of the COM
mittee are H. Graham Morrison
of Fairfax County, Assistant

president; John Randall Cook
Of Crewe, secretary. and State
Senator Edward E. Haddock
Of Richmond, treasurer.
Mr.. Miller. who convened the
meeting, said:
For many years some Of our
State leaders have been follow
ing the road away from Monti-
cello tJefiersonian democracy. =.
Now the tide has turned-now
we are on the road to Monti-
cello. and we invite all Virginia
Democrats to accompany US on
the return journey"
Mr.. Morrison said, Let the
politician Of yesteryear sit by
cold fires Of the past and slum-
Der. A bonfire has been lit that
will consume the spoilers OF the
Democratic Party in Virginia.

Job Training Plan Urged
For DC. ChiIdren's Center
Rehabilitation
Report Given
Commission
By SAM EASTMAN
Star Stan Writer

/ SthI stan WrlLer
Detailed plans for establish
ing an effective job-training
program at the Children's Gem
ter have been submitted to
the District Commissioners.
The plan is part OF a proposed
new approach. toward rehabili-
tating delinquents.
In the report, Welfare De-
partment officials said, the
initial annual cost to the city
would be about $154,000 plus
the construction cost for q
shop building.
Commissioner Robert E. Nc
Laughlin asked for the study
earlier this month. Mr.. Nc.
Laughlin, backed by Commis-
sioner David B. Karrick, sug-
gested consideration of a new
delinquency rehabilitation con-
cept combining longer conflne-
ment periods with a realistic
ljob-preparation program.
Dual Approach
This dual approach. accord
ing to the two Commissioners,
would have three major ad.
vantages. The boys could
actually be trained to land a
job on release from the laurel
(Md) institution; there would
be less chance that the youths
would drift back to their old
friends and habits. and the
longer confinement periods
would be a delinquency deter
rent.
In his report, Welfare Di.
rector Gerard M. Shea pro-
posed that the present vocation
training be expanded into a
three-step program.
This program, Mr.. Shea said,
would be geared to the aver
age group Of about 125 young
sters at the institution who are
difficult students or students
with behavior problems"
Supervised Work
Under his recommendation,
the present vocation training
would be supplemented with
supervised work details and q
vastly expanded program in
shop prouction training.
To carry out this plan, Mr..
Shea saids Is staff Jobs would
have to be added at the chill
dren'S Center, at an annual
payroll cost of nearly $65,O00.
The shop equipment needed
would cost nearly S7l,000, the
report said, and $4,000 a year
would be required for a $3-a.
month incentive payment to the
youths who are doing well in
the work production program.
In addition. Mr.. Shea said,
funds would be needed to con-
struct another shop building
for the comprehensive training
program. No cost estimate was
submitted for this item.
Shea'S Views
Mr.. Shea told the Commis-
sioners:
"One of the weaknesses in
the overall program of rehabil-
itation for the older residents
at the Children's Center is the
lack of a comprehensive work
training program.
This weakness, he said,
mainly was the result of an
attempt to assign training re-
SponsibilitieS to production
staff. These staff members, Mr..
Shea explained, do not have
the time or experience to train
delinquentS who have little
motivation toward work"
Under Mr.. Shea's proposal.
the problem youths would
graduate from one phase to
another, and their release
would depend upon their re-
sponSe and improvement under
the job training.
Mr.. Mclaughlin said the re-
port would be submitted to the
Citizens Advisory Council for
a recommendation to the Com.
misSioners.

So You're Landscaping!

This is the time Of year when
everybody thinks they have green
thumbs. So you should take advan-
tage OF your mood and get going on
that landscaping project before the
hot, lazy weather sets in.
That's the advice OF County Agri-
cultural Agent George Vapaa. He
mentioned some of the things you
should consider when you work out
design for your yard.
The property is divided into
three areas: the public area, that is
the front OF the house facing the
road; the service area includes the
driveway, clothes drying section,
etc. and the living area often call
ed the outdoor living room.
These three sections should be
divided in some way, either with
plants or a fence or some other
structure.
The front Of the house should be
an open lawn area with perhaps a
few low shrubs at the foundation of
the home.
The house should be framed with
trees. he said. The trees should be
in proportion to the house.
The base OF the house should
have paintings to soften the lines
OF the building. Dense. slow grow
ing evergreens are good for them.
They are effective for use on each
side of door to focus attention on
the doorway. Low paintings should
be used under windows.
Build up the corners OF the house.
Broadleaf evergreens are best for
building up the corners of the
house. Ground covers such as vines
are effective to tie paintings to-
gether.
Screen and border paintings or
fences. and hedges can be used to
provide privacy In the outdoor liv-
ing area and to cover up undesir-
able features.
The outdoor living room is the
spot for large deciduous and ever
green trees. They should also be
planted on the southwest side OF
the house to provide shade.
You really should hurry, Mr.. Va
paa said, because the hot weather
will be here before you know it and
all yinIl feel like doing Is laying
In the shade. 81
II you have specific questions call
the agent at the Kent County Ex-
tension Service or drop him card
His phone number is REdfleld g.
1448 and the address is the post
Office in Dover.

Bob Kelly, Speaks
To The Farm Bureau
Administrative Assistant To Sen.
Allen Frear Banquet Speaker

THE preservation of the rights
of the states and the due protec-
ton of local, state and govern
mental authority in its intended
degree are basic and primary ne
cessities for the continued well
fare of this Union, Robert F.
Kelley, administrative assistant to
U. S. Senator ]. Allen Frear told
the Sussex County Farm Bureau
and guests at the annual spring
banquet in Jones Memorial Hall
last Thursday night
I'VE cannot afford to lose sight
of that fact, either through pub
lie indifference or to meet what
appears to be an urgent need of
the moment"
Mr.. Kelly, accompanied from
Washington by James Galloway,
special assistant to Senator Frear
was leading speaker at the banquet
which featured also a policy talk
by James H. Baxter, Jr., state
president, and a discussion of vi
tai issues by Mrs. Jonathan Wheat
ley, Delmar, president of the As
sociated Farm Bureau Women of
the State.
Henry C. Johnson, Selbyville,
president of the county bureau,
presided at the meeting. Paul p.
Bickford, executive secretary of
the state bureau, introduced Mr..
Kelly.
.C.onu;1Io cbooLIo,, M;1fo rd
chairman of membership for the
county, reported that the Sussex
County organization had completed
its quota and is outstanding in the
state in this regard.
Mr.. johnson introduced the
guests who included among others
State Senators Walter j. Hoey
Curtis w. Steen and Earl Tull;
Harry S. Smith, state insurance
commissioner and Charles H
West, Milford, outstanding farmer
of the year for the state.
Mrs. Edwin Williams, Seaford
Sussex County president of the
Miss Janet Elliott, Laurel, State
Farm Bureau Beauty Queen, and
outlined this years contest.
Also introduced by Mr.. johnson
were Joseph Penuel, Milford, state
vice president; William l.. David
Bear, New Castle president; Ro
land Garrison, Dover, Kent County
president and Roland Russell
Bridgeville, Sussex County vict
president.
/
Mr.. Baxter told of the confer
ence in Washington with Senator:
Frear and John j. Williams.
He then outlined Farm Bureau
policies from a national point o.
view, saying that the members arr
opposed to more Federal Govern
ment rule and have expressed
themselves as believing that re
turn to free market is one Of the
things we should do.
In opposing Limited aid" to edu
cation, Mr.. Baxter said, Eve il
Farm Bureau know that there ii
no such thing as limited aid"
He said that there are NOR,
than 200 commodities grown OF
farms and that only few O.
these are under government con
troll. He said those that were no
are getting along well.
Milford chronicle., 1960-04-22

He praised both u. S. Senator
Williams and Frear and said that
the state is mighty proud to have
two such fine senator's"
Regarding farm labor. he said
that the Secretary of Labor dug
down into some obsolete file and
says he has charge of farm labor"
Mr.. Kelly spoke of the admir-
alton and envy which he said is
expressed by other nations of the
world for the American way of life
and continued, That is why it is
so important for us to maintain
and strengthen the basic tradi-
founded and not to allow ourselves
to become so enmeshed in various
international schemes and devices
that the system under which we
live will be weakened or changed
. 1T is very easy thing to gC
along with proposals that seen
to be universally popular because
they apparently involve neither
significant cost or great respon-
sibility to the individual citizen.
when such Federal programs
are suggested despite their often
obvious political motives-it is ex-
tremely difficult to convince many
persons that the price, though
seemingly paid in Washington, is
of course, assessed to American
taxpayers in the final analysis
Government costs money and that
cost is increasingly heavy today
as Federal spending continues to
rise.
ITO moderate this influence ant
also to swing the pendulum back
toward more state and local au-
thority is a herculean effort and
takes considerable political cour-
age"
At another point in his speech
Mr.. Kelly said, People at times
criticize the slow and deliberate
process of the Senate. They feel al
urgency to get things done in /;
hurry, to rush legislation through
because at the moment it seems the
thing to do.
But in it's wisdom, the Senate
must and will not be stampeded
1t does, in its collective wisdom
say halt on many occasions so
can examine the issues NOR,
closely"

Conservation Reserve
Not Vacating
Farm Homes

Even though more than two
thirds OF the land in the Conserva-
tion Reserve is In the form of whole
farms, the program is having little
effect to date on where farm people
make their homes and on how much
shopping they do In their local COM
munities.
Those are some OF the prelimin-
airy findings by the Agricultural Re-
search Service of the u. s. Depart
ment Of Agriculture based on inter-
views with Conservation Reserve
participants In five different areas.
Farm population has been declin-
ing and size OF farms increasing in
most rural areas for many years,
and there Is no indication Of any
speed-up in these trends as a re-
suit OF the Conservation Reserve,
according to the report.
Lister V. Hall, Jr., Office Mana
ger OF the Kent Agricultural Stabil-
lzation and Conservation County
Committee points out that a pri-
mary purpose Of the Conservation
Reserve Is to check surplus prOduc-
ton by retirement OF cropland. Far
mers who place all their eligible
cropland in the Reserve are not re-
quired to remain on the farm but
may do so and make use OF the
buildings. home garden area, and
permanent pasture.
"This study" Mr.. Hall said,
shows that some Conservation Re-
serve participants who would have
sold their farms and moved away
are retiring and continuing to live
on the farm. Some who have shift
ed TO non-farm work and are con-
tInuing to live on their farms said
they would have moved to towns or
cities II IL had not been for the
opportunity to obtain a reasonable
return from their investments in
farm property by participating in
the Conservation Reserve.
Other highlights of the Research
Service findings include:
/. Few Conservation Reserve
farms have good dwellings that are
not occupied. M
2. Most participants plan to
maintain and repair their farm
building although many are not full
ly used.
3. There have been some reduc-
tions in purchases of farm machin-
cry and supplies, but these have
been largely Offset by expenditures
for other items as result of in
come received by participants in
the form Of Conservation Reserve
payments.
