spring ploWing time Is
here. butit will be helpful to
understanding if we do not
think of farming in terms of
the man with the hoe or of
the homeward plodding
plowman.
1t was only a few years
ago that one could nod af-
firmatively over one of
Thomas Hardy's poems, and
say, That is So" He wrote
I'm Time of the Breaking of
Nations:
"Only'a a man narrowing
clods
In a slow silent walk,
With an old horse that
stumbles and mods
Half asleep as they stalk.
only thin smoke without
flame
From the heaps of couch
grass;
Yet this will go onward
the same
Though dynasties pass"
Machine Here to Stay
DynaSties have passed
since the philoSopher-poet
and reformer-n novelist wrote
OF the eternal symbol of the
man, the horse and the plow.
But it does not go onward the
same. The image is new.
The machine has come to
stay. Horses and mules are
so rare a sight on farms to-
day as to excite surprised
comment.
Last year in the heart of
MiSsiSsippi's cotton country,
Is per cent of the crop was
mechanically picked, COM
pared with 65 per cent in
1859 and less than 10 per
cent in 1850. Delta planters
used to say, when the ma
chimes were new, THE best
cotton picker will always be
a pair of black hands" They
may still think so, especially
if the hands could be paid a
pittance. But they buy ma
chimes.
Each American industrial
worker, entering the plant
where he or she is hired to
operate a unit in the vast ex-
panse of machinery involved
in production, represents a
capital investment of $15,-
900. In some industries, of
course, the per capita expen-
diture on equipment is much
higher. But the average is
almost $4,000 per worker.
The pioneers, on the west

new land, took with them an

The first absolutely safe"
nuclear reactor soon will be
installed in the laboratory
of the Armed Forces Radio
biological Research Institute
at Bethesda, Md.
Its power output will be
controlled by a sort of
"thermostat". according to a
description from the Office
of Naval Research under
whose auspices it was de-
veloped. Men can work
around it with complete
confidence of safety.
Its power output can be
increased from one watt to
more than 100000 kilowatts
in less than a Goth of a
second and then returned
instantly and automatically
to its previous level. 1t will
enable Defense Department
scientists to conduct a broad
research program on the ef-
fectS of large gamma ray
and neutron fluXeS on living
organisms, electronic instru-
ments and other devices.
They will have absolute con-
troll of the dosage.
The $2,400,000 reactor now
is near completion by the
General DynamicS Corpora
ton at San Diego, Calf.
Opens New Research
The apparatus, according
to a Navy report, will
enable scientists to dupli-
cate, in a safe controlled
operation, a great many of
the types of radiation ex-
poSure necessary for bio
medical experiments. Acti-
vation analysis will be used
to detect traces of elements
in body tissues and fluids,
to detect small chemical
changes within cancerous
cells. and to assist in the
study of bone growth and
bone diseases. Studies of the
chemistry of very low con-
centration solutions will be
carried out.
1T opens up important
new fields of research on
the effects of high level ra-
diation. Mankind will bene-
fit in many ways as a result
of data obtained by this
installation. In peace or war,
knowledge of radiation ef-
fectS on biological systems,
with particular emphasis on
man, is essential to the we'll
being of mankind"

Answers to Questions
BY THE HASKINS SERVICE

@. How often should dogs be
bathed?-R. A.
A. Only when they really
need it. Too frequent bathing
makes a dogs sensitive skin
unnaturally dry; minute cracks
appear in the skin, which often

To Ease the Impact


Your self = righteousness
showed through very clearly
in the April 3 editorial en-
titled ITO Ease The Impact,
when you applauded the Dis
trict Engineer Commission
er's decision to shift the
proposed route of the East
Leg of the Inner Loop over
one block since it would
lease the impact Of this
major thoroughfare on long
established residential and
other properties" You agreed
that every possible effort
should be made to cause as
little property destruction
and community upheaval as
is consistent with urgent
plans for expediting the
movement Of traffic through
the city" You recognize that
the original proposal for
carrying the Inner Loop
through Southeast and
Northeast Washington would
have involved the demoli-
tion of more housing than
would be required by shift
ing the route one block to
the west and that this new
proposal would not interfere
with philadelphia Row"
You have missed the point
entirely. The new route
would save philadelphia
Row" "a group Of houses of
questionable value, except
that they are "historic") and
would not require the tun-
neling Of Lincoln Park. How
ever, the personal misery
which this highway will visit
upon the com m unitieS
through which it must travel
win be none the less great.
The plans for the new route
make no provision for the
many families which must be
displaced. Under the old pro-
poSal approximately 1875
families would be displaced.
The new route lessons this
misery and displaces only
l,135 families, a great reduc-
ton in families uprooted. In
addition, many churches,
schools, and other institu-
tions Of a public character
will be wiped out by the route.
Your editorial attempts to
Salve your conscience by stat
ing that lit is too bad that
these traffic projects in
evitably will have a disrup-
tive effect on the COM
munities traverSed, but we
are convinced that the Inner
Loop in the end will benefit
the whole Metropolitan area"
If the test of the value
of the highway is in terms
of Metropolitan benefit, why
are you not also advocating
Metropolitan responsibility
for the solution of problems
recreated by this Metro
politan benefit? Since the
bulk Of the families to be
displaced are Negro, are you
prepared to state that the
total Metropolitan area
which will benefit should
take responsibility for provid-
ing decent, safe, and sanitary
housing for a large share of
these Negro families who
must move in order to make
way for this new concrete
ribbon through their former
neighborhood? Until such
time as you are willing to
face the fact that the Dis
trict solely bears the burden
of increased density and
overcrowding within the
District lines since the sub
urbS generally are not open
to Negroes, but that the sur
rounding areas must share
the burdens Of displacement,
then and only then will you
be entitled to talk about
easing the impact.

rust havoc on the family car.
Rust usually starts where
water can accumulate-such as
floor of luggage compartment,
step-down floor of back seat,
door jambs and sills, or wrap
around skirts under doors and

hinges, latches, license plate
hangers, headlights - or where
paint has been Clipped on the

Rust -OleumS coatings can
be your answer. Where paint
is scratched on the body, sand
down to bright metal; then ap-
ply Rust Oleum $50 Primer.
Let dry overnight and finish
job with automotive touch-up
color to match cars original
finish. Note: Do not use nitro
cellulose or acrylic lacquers
over Rust Oleum.

OUR SPACE AGE

Big John came down to the
house for a few days. I hadn't
seen him since Ted Baker
and I put him in the front
seat of a DC-8 for his first
jet ride. Now, unless I'm los
ing discernment, my father
grows younger. He looks slim
and handsome and, since his
Miami vacation, has become
addicted to wild sports shirts
and gay stories.
When he is introduced to
ladies, he bounds out Of his
chair, shakes hands warmly,
and waggles his shaggy browS
at them.
I put some romantic Mant-
evani records on the hi-fi
set and he sat and dreamed
his way through the old
songs. He talks music at
length, and, Of the operas,
Faust" remains his favorite.
Once, he played trumpet in
two bands, and he played
violin and piano too. Now
he listens.
When he visits me, we're
like two old ladies. We talk
through the night, either
agreeing with each other
down to the last comma, or
arguing bitterly. He reads all
the newspapers, and listens
to the news broadcaStS.
He will be 78 in October.
A widow in her 70's writes
long yearning letters and asks
him to drop in "for a SPELL"
He's afraid Of the spell. My
fathers romanticism is, sadly,
largely intellectual. Still, he

them to no one.

so suddenly that Dad didn't
get to the ceremony, al
though I know he would like
to have been invited. Still,
when he saw the bride, he
kissed her. shook hands and
wished her AL the luck in
the world" and turned to me
and said: well! What's
new?"
The thing which impresSes
me the most is that he has
a livelineSs this year which
was not in him last, year.
The answer is exercise, af-
fection and interest. When we
were together for seven weeks
in Miami, I stopped deferring
to his wishes. I put him to
work around the villa. After
a week, he needed no further
pushing.
My fear was that between
March and now he would
backslide. He had been home
with my sister that long and
I figured that he would re-
turn to living within his room
with all his books and news
papers. Not so. He takes in
creasingly longer walks, eats
as though food will be out
lawed in the morning, and
sleeps without pills.
A renewed interest in life
is difficult to acquire. Goad-
ing and needing often works
better than coaxing. When
my father turned down his
first plane ride, my reply was
brutal: you want to live
forever?" I said. "If you're
afraid of planes, then be
careful crossing streets be-
cause a taxi can get you
quicker" He went on the
plane and later he took a jet
