TROUT FOR DINNER
 COREY, England tA Hun dreds of trout invaded steel plant today The first inkling of their arrival came when a strip mill began to overheat for lack of water in it's cooling system.
 Engineers found the feed pipes jammed solid with trout. The en- gineers said the fish apparently got into the plants water system from a trout nursery three miles away.
 The fish were removed, the mill went back to normal operation and number of steelworkers had fresh trout for dinner.

MAGAZINE Curtain?

Canada's Royal Commission on
Publications is going to strange lengths
to Stifle competition from magazines
published in the United States. Among
several recommendations, it has pro-
posed: (D That magazines published
abroad and containing Canadian adver-
tiSing not carried in U. S. editions should
be banned from entry into Canada and
(2) that Canadian enterprises advertis-
ing in such editions should not be
allowed to deduct this advertising cost
as business expense for tax purposes.
These are clearly discriminatory
and punitive proposals. They might, or
they might not, lead to greater reader
ship of Canadian publications, or to
less interest in Canadian editions of
periodicals originating in our country.
It is possible, of course, that Canadian
readers like our magazines enough to
buy and read them without regard for
Royal Commission guidance on such
matters. And strangely enough, the
Commission itself speaks with conf
dence about the worth of the Canadian
magazines and their ability to obtain
a "fair share" of advertising revenues.
From this side of the friendly
frontier it sounds as if some (not all)
of the Canadian publishers are being
bit neurotic, and that the ailment must
have spread to the Royal Commission.

Pyrrhic Victory

On its face, the Supreme Courts
decision on the use of "exacted" union
dues for political purposes is victory
for six protesting Georgia railroad
workers. But these six might well Join
with PyrrhuS in saying: One more such
victory and am utterly undone
The five-member majority opinion,
written by Mr.. Justice Brennan, said
the record in this case presented con-
stitutional questions of utmost gravity"
These questions were SideStepped, how
ever, and the ruling was based on an
Interpretation of the intent of Congress
In enacting the relevant section of the
Railway Labor Act (Mr. Justice Black
said the majority went so far in avoiding
the constitutional questions that it
actually rewrote the law to make it
mean exactly what Congress refused to
make it mean.)
Justice Brennan held that the law
was violated when the union spent
money, received from dues under a
union shop contract, for political
purposes to which the six workers had
expressly objected They are entitled, he
said, to refund of such portion of their
dues as was improperly spent by the
union and he suggested complicated
formula for calculating the amount.
The legal result is that the six workers,
after protracted and, if they paid their
own expenses, costly litigation, even
tually will get back few dollars. The
practical result, we suspect, is that this
decision will discourage further pro-
tests from union members against mis-
use by their unions of dues which they
are compelled to pay in order to work.
From their point of view, the game will
not be worth the candle.
In his dissent, Justice Black said
the union practice was unconstitutional
and should be stopped dead in its
tracks" With certain notifications, he
would have upheld the ruling of the
Georgia courts in favor of the six
workers. "The stark fact u.s." he added,
"that this act of Congress is being used
as means to exact money from these
employees to help get votes to win elec-
tionS for parties and candidates and to
support doctrines they are against. If
this is constitutional the First Amend
ment is not the charter of political and
religious liberty its sponsors believed it
to be-"
In this instance, however, Justice
Black stood alone. The justices who
usually join him on constitutional
questions preferred to sit this one out.
Perhaps some future case will bring
fuller exposition of constitutional views
and a more meaningful decision than
this one.

Congo Promise

Although still full of unpredictable
factors, the situation in the Congo con-
tinueS to improve in a way that helps
explain why United Nations Secretary
General Dag Hammarskjold feels that
the "grievouS stage" of the country's
crisis has come to an end. The latest
evidence along that line can be found in
the announcement that the rival
regimes of Joseph KaSavubu and
Antoine Gizenga have agreed to recon-
vene the CongoleSe Parliament in an
effort to settle their differences and
establish unified government.
This agreement is the most striking
measure to date of the improvement
that has been taking place in the
turbulent former Belgian colony. Only
a short time ago the fledgling republic
seemed to be on the verge of all-out
civil war, with the chief contenderS
being President Kasavubu'S central
government in Leopoldville Officially
recognized by the great majority of the
U. NJ and the Kremlin- backed Stanley
vile regime headed by Communist
trained Mr.. Gizenga. But now these
two have managed to reach an accord
that has moved one of Mr.. Kasavubu's
top aSSociateS-Vice Premier Jean Boil
kongo-to declare that the CongoleSe
people, after suffering year of near
anarchy, "are on the eve of national
reconciliation"
OF course, considering the fierce
rivalrieS that still exist among many
CongoleSe tribal groups, and considering
also the countryS grave educational
deficiencies, it may be said that Mr.
Bolikongo has taken an optimistic view
subject to change without notice. And
this seems the more true because PreSi-
dent Noise TShombe of Katanga Prov
ince, the Congo'S richest, is being held
by the KaSavubu government under a
kind of house arrest, and the province
itself remains in SeceSSioniSt status.
There is a possibility, however, that Mr..
TShombe may be released and that
representatives of Katanga'S ruling
group in Elizabethville may participate
in the projected four-day parliamentary
session, which is scheduled to begin on
Sunday at Lovanium University, some
IL miles from Leopoldville.
In any event, the Kasavubu-G -Gizenga
agreement provides for an all-inclusive
meeting of the Parliament, which has
been out of action since last September.
The meeting, moreover, is to be held
under armed U. N. protection in keeping
with an understanding that all CongoleSe
troops and police in Leopoldville will
deposit their weapons in a U. N. ware
house. In addition, other steps will be
taken to guarantee that no preSSureS
or threats will be exerted against the
participants Certainly, if this promiS-
ing accord is honored by everybody con-
cerned, the Congo will have at least
chance to make real progress toward
unity and genuine nationhood.

If this has any basis in fact,
it is due to overzealous sell

Sheer Arrogance

Anyone seeking an example of un-
bridled arrogance can find 1t in the
current national maritime strike. For
in that two-coast shipping shutdown the
striking unions have set up So-called
Clearance Committee" to decide the
Legitimacy" of Defense Department re-
quests for uninterrupted movement of
military cargoeS!
And apparently some of the deci-
Sions have been adverse, or else have
been delayed because of inter-union
disagreement, for the fact is that at
least four ships scheduled to carry
defense supplies have been held up in
Eastern ports. According to the ASso-
ciated Press, blame for these tieupS of
military shipping was placed by Joseph
Curran, president of the National Mari
time Union, on the Marine Engineers
Beneficial Association, which is partici-
pating in the strike Mr.. Curran accused
the association of failing to participate
in the clearance procedures.
Vice Admiral Roy Gano, commander
of the Military Sea Transport Service,
confirmed the Interruptions in defense
shipments but added, hopefully, "We
aren't completely frustrated" It is
hardly reassuring, however, to know that
the degree of Illustration suffered by
the Defense Department rests in the
hands of union group asserting a right
to decide whether military cargo is
Legitimate" and whether it can leave
port or must remain tied up.

REGIONAL Necessity

Engineer Commissioner Clarke, in
recent address to the Washington Real
Estate Board, paid tribute to advances
which this region has made co-opera-
lively in dealing with its problems of
metropolitan growth. But he warned
that the really difficult problems in this
field have not yet even been en-
countered, and that these will be possible
of solution only through more rigid
forms of governmental machinery.
Thus far the emphasis has been
largely on the desirable economies that
would flow from regional unity, and
which could be accepted or rejected as
a matter of choice. In the future, as
General Clarke asserted, such measures
will be increasingly matters of necessity
An imminent example is the Poto
mac River development plan now being
completed by the Army Engineers, to
deal not only with domestic and indus
trial water supply, but with pollution
abatement. Here truly are goals which
benefit no single jurisdiction or group
of Jurisdictions, but the area as whole.
It follows, therefore, that the great ex-
penSe OF proVlolng these Dene1ltS must
rest also with the area as a whole. Yet
today there is no governmental machin-
cry to effect such result.
There is, however, as General Clarke
noted, the concept of such an organiza-
ton in the act of Congress which
established the National Capital Trans
portation Agency. BY that provision
Congress authorized the District, Mary
land and Virginia to establish new
interstate compact Ito formulate plans
and policies for the development of the
region, and to perform governmental
functions of a regional character, in
cluding but not limited to the pro-
vision of regional transportation facili-
ties"
To date the District, Maryland and
Virginia have appointed the members
of team to negotiate such a compact.

The Amish and Taxes

Your Haskins Service has
been very helpful to me in
the matter of furnishing me
with some authentic infor-
nation anent the origin and
tenets Of the Amish, and I
wish to present my compli-
mentS and best wishes, as
well as my gratitude for their
effort and help to me.
1t is so pleasing to me to
know that help is on the way
for them via legislation re-
Gently introduced by a Penn
sylvania Senator and a Con-
gresham from the same
State which will provide a
means for exempting them
formally from payment Of
social security taxes and at
the same time exempting
them from any benefits
hereunder. All this is fair
enough and in accordance
with our American standards
of justice and honor and
freedom of religion.
I have often said that
when the chips are down"
Americans will always do the
thing, in the right way and
at the right time-with hon.
or and dignity and IN con-
formity with our high ethical
standards of conduct. towards
all peoples. The legislators
who passed the amendment
to the social security law
providing for contributions
by self-employed people can
be excused for their failure
to exempt the Amish from
the operation or inclusion in
that law-undoubtedly it was
an oversight on their part
and not a deliberate attempt
to break through our first
line of defense - that con-
crete wall protecting our re-
ligious standards of any and
all sectS IN this country.
Therefore I am inclined to
be lenient in my criticism of
the Internal Revenue Service
for seizing the horses and
harness of Amish farmers
who stood their ground and
refused to par+'-'----a Ia in the

County Appointments

The recent re-appointment
of an only applicant to the
Suburban Sanitary CommiS-
sion moves me to point out
that there is nothing to keep
the Montgomery County
Council from requesting a
qualified individual to serve,
whether the person has ap-
piled for the position or not.
Many qualified and able
people do not apply for these
positions because of the abso-
lutte futility in doing so. Con-
trolling g Republicans and
Democrats alike have been
especially, and ever-mindful
of the needs Of the Specula-
tive land interests, and only
incidentally of the interests
of the public. They make ap-
'pointments sympathetic only
to their special viewpoint.
For an example, consider
the reappo in TIM e mt Just
made to the Maryland Ma
tional Park and Planning
Commission. The Council
members themselves have
often complained that plan
ming by the MNCPPC has
not kept up with the growth
in Montgomery County. Al
though there were at least
a dozen applicants for this
position, no discernible con-
Sideration was given to any
of them. The incumbent was
re-appointed, and the Com
mission remained the same.
OF the seven 'Councilmen,
only Stella Werner and STAN
ley FroSh had the courage
to vote for a much-needed
change.
And so the old order stand
eth, high and mighty, midst
the disorder and chaos it has
