istence Of the organization was
announced recently by the pro-
government johannesburg news
paper Die Vaderland. The planned
boycott is intended as retaliation
for the United States attitude to-
ward whites in South Africa and
intends spreading propaganda
that fewer American products such
as motorcars should be bought by
South Africans"
The move has naturally stirred
some speculation, particularly in
the port and city of Fort Eliza
beth where there is an American
automobile-assembly industry with
such companies as General Motors
playing a major role. However,
although seven branches of the
boycott organization repeatedly
have been established in principal
South African cities, there is to
date little indication that the boy
colt is having any effect.
Meanwhile, American Ambas-
sador to South Africa Philip A.
Grove is in the news again with
his contacts with nonwhite lead
ers banned and rejected by the
government. Mr.. Grove has pre-
viously met such African lead
ers as Albert John Luthuli, head
of the outlawed African National
Congress, and now recently he
has talked in Durham with banned
Indian leaders. Few if any other
diplomats have made such contact
for fear of offending the govern
ment, and while such contacts
might seem mild and reasonable
in the outside world, in South At
RIGA they are regarded with sus-
picion and distaste by the present
government.
All this has taken place against
the background Of that much head
lined tour of Africa by the United
States new Assistant Secretary of
State for African Affairs, G.
Mennen Williams. The South AZ
rican Government has watched
Mr.. Williams progression across
Africa with horror, rather like a
confused and angry watchdog fol-
lowing a prickly porcupine across
its backyard.
First Mr., Williams snubbed
South Africa by emitting this
most industrialized country on the
continent from his first African
tour. (However, it is announced
he will come here later in the
year-and that will be a tour to
see.) Then he made his africa
for the Africans" speech in Mai
robi and was reinforced by Pres
ident Kennedy at one Of the lat
ter's press ronferenres.
South Africa's External At
fairs Minister Eric H. Louw dis
missed Mr.. Williams explanation
of that Nairobi statement. Mr..
Louw said Mr.. Williams was we'll
known before his official appoint
ment for his "ultraliberalistic
views" and his active association
with trade-union leader Walter P.
Reuther "who has been actively
associated with anti-South African
groups in the United States" Now
that Mr.. Williams was an official,
however, said Mr.. Lohw, he should
cease from statements (which can
not but have the effect of disturb
ing good relations between the
United States and South Africa"

from the audience cut him short.
He stalked off the stage, leaving
his five-piece accompaniment and
the l8-piece orchestra trailing of

him to return, but he refused, pro-

! leptoSpirosis.
The boar was bred to 40 pure
bred soWs and at narrowing time,
all go pigs were born dead or
very weak. When these soWs
were again bred, only half OF
them had pigs, and 20 soWs had
to be replaced.
Figuring the $50 pigs at S.
each, this loss was 81 400, the
loss on The 20 sows came to
ST $50, and the cost of the boar
was $50. In addition, the farmer
had drug costs and losses re-
sulting from a disruption of his
production schedule.
The cost of preventing this
tragedy would have been APP
proximately SIS for a blood test
of the boar. says DR.. W. r. Van
Dresser, VPI veterinarian.
How can a hog producer pro-
tect himself against such losses?
Van Drsser has some suggestions
for the purchase OF breeding
stock:
Be sure the animals are tested
for brucellosis, tuberculosis, and
leptospirosis. In addition to being
dangerous to the animals, all
three of these diseases can be
transmitted to man, so the farm
er is also protecting his family
by testing the animals.
Animals should be vaccinated
by veterinarian for hog cholera
within 80 days of the purchase
date and preferably not less than
20 days before purchase. Vacci-
nation is also necessary against
erysipelas.

Discrimination
Bill FightLed
ByBarbee
By a Star Staff Writer

ANNAPOLIS, Mar. 25.-Dele-
gate Alger Barbee, Democrat of
Montgomery, led a move today
to kill a bill which would pro-
hibit Maryland hotels and res
taurants from discriminating
against Negroes.
The House Judiciary Com
mittee, on a motion by Mr..
Barbee, pigeonholed the bill.
However, sponsors Of the meas
ure said they will petition the
bill out Of committee for a vote
on the House floor.
The controversial measure,
which was tabled by a 14-to-10
vote Of the committee, was a
watered down version of an
other bill which was killed by
the same committee earlier in
the session.
Held Illegal
The bill would make 1t illegal
for places Of public accommo-
dation to refuse service to
Negroes. To meet some Of the
objections Of the original bill,
the sponsors eliminated tav-
erns, rooming houses and lunch
counters at swimming pools
and bowling alleys and provided
for a review Of the complaint
by the attorney general before
any prosecution could be made.
Delegate Charles w. Wood
ward, Democrat of Montgomery,
also voted with Mr.. Barbee.
Most of the other IA votes came
from delegates from the East
ern Shore.
The votes of Mr.. Barbee and
Mr.. Woodward were contrary
to the views of the other four
members of the Montgomery
delegation who were among the
"a sponsors Of the bill.
10 Oppose Motion
Among the 10 opposing the
motion to table were delegates
Lansdale G. Sasscer, jr., and
Hervey G. Machen, Democrats
Of Prince Georges.
Meanwhile Legislation to in
crease the salaries of Prince
Georges County Commissioners
and to establish a Peoples Court
In that county were passed by
the House Of Delegates.
The salary bill provides for
$12,500 q year for the chairman
of the Board Of Commissioners,
1000 for the vice chairman
and $6,500 for the other three
members.
The House approved also a
bill which would authorize the
Prince Georges Commissioners
to sell 100000 in bonds to
construct a new library for the
Laurel district.
Another bill passed by the
House provides for the appoint
ment Of a chief clerk Of the
Peoples Court in Montgomery
County.
Senator Edward S. Northrop,
Democrat Of Montgomery, said
an amendment has been worked
out to clear the way for passage
OF bills which would give Rock
vile and Takoma Park author
ity to undertake urban renewal
programs.
