Washington. THE CIVIL
RIGHTS DILEMMA - One nag
ging issue still contributes to lib
eral doubts about President Ken
nedy's Administration. 1t Is the
question of civil rights and what
to do about it.
The issue has been with US a
long time. No one believes 1t will
disappear overnight, no matter how
many laws are passed or how many
times the Supreme Court re-states
the law. But the argument between
the Administration and some lead
ers of Americans for Democratic
Action, for example, is whether
new legislation will hasten the de-
sired end of full rights for all
Americans.
Spokesman for the Administra-
ton are opposed to a big civil
rights battle this year. They insist
that much more can be accomp-
lished by executive action" On
the other hand, the equal rights
proponents maintain that giving
ground on this issue now will in
evitably mean giving ground on
other parts of the Democrats dom
este program. They also say new
laws are needed to strengthen the
Justice Department in its attempts
to protect voting rights.

St. Paul recorder., 1961-04-14

Before passions are too aroused,
it seems to me that both positions
ought to be examined with a view
to their possible consequences.
Stripped of technicalities what
the civil rights proponents want is
legislation which will provide stern
enough penalties (for violators of
the desegregation decisions and
similar invasions of individual
rights to deter such violations.
There Is a wide feeling that in
Mississippi or Georgia or other
states the law-breakers scott at
the Flaw of the land" because
they know they can continue
with impunity to deny Negroes
their rights. But II they faced
stiff fines, or possible imprisOn-
ment, they might think twice.
A corollary argument for enact
ing new laws is that proponents
believe they are holding the dixie
against a flood of turn-back-the-
clock legislation in other areas. If
Kennedy can win on civil rights,
they argue, then it will be easier to
win the minimum wage fight ct
also involves Negroes and their
pay scale) and enact other legis-
lation.

THE EFFECTS OF EXECU-
TIVE ACTION - Against these
arguments, which the White House
keeps constantly re examining,
what happens if the Administra-
ton "arouses" the segregationists L?
To some strategists it means such
all-out warfare within Democratic
Party ranks, in the Senate partic-
ularly, that nothing significant in
the way of domestic legislation
will be enacted.
The One-vOte defeat of the
Kennedy minimum wage bill In
the House has startled many
Democrats. The Texas Senate
contest, which showed great
strength for right-wingers In
both the Tower and Blal1Iey
votes, has also had a disquieting
effect.
If such results come with a new
Administration in office less thar
three months, what will happen by
summer?

LAWN FERTILIZERS
Nitrogen is the plant nutrient
that all lawn grasses need an
abundant source of. In the devel-
oping of new lawns, it is advisable
to incorporate a well rotted ma
nure, peat moss, or compost into
the soil before seeding. When es-
tablishing a new lawn, it is rec
mmended to apply superphosphate
at the rate of 5 to 10 pounds per
1000 square feet in addition to
the organic matter. The phosphate
should be worked into the soil to
a depth of one to two inches at
seeding time.
Ammonium sulphate or nitrate
| applied at the rate of 2 to 3 lbs.
per 1000 square feet is recon-
mended for established lawns
Apply the fertilizer as a top dress
ing when the grass blades are
dry and water thoroughly to leach
the fertilizer into the soil. To in
sure an even application, mix the
fertilizer with sifted dry soil. This
helps to eliminate heavy concen'
trations which could cause burn
ing of lawn grass. Fertilizer
should be applied early in the
spring. If you fertilize your lawn
more than once a year, apply
to liz pounds per 1000 SQUARE
feet and make two applications.
An ammoniated phosphate fer
tilizer such as 10-20-0 or 1O-3O-'
should be used in place of ann
monium sulphate at least ono
every two to three years. Appl.
the ammonium phosphate at IN
rate of 3 to five pounds per l,OO
square feet.

A ON SPRING


BY spending a few hours now
to clean up your farmstead and
your buildings you may save many
days during the busy season later

For when you get rid of trash
and junk that has accumulated
over the winter, you also get rid
of many accident and fire haz-

of continued work, planning and

live and work on the place.

for a community cleanup thai

available, and you r interested
in using it as a fertilizer, apply
about one bushel for every 80
square feet of lawn area.
WEED CONTROL
Weeds will be getting a good
start with the arrival of warm
weather, especially along fence
rows, driveways and other places
where extra moisture collected
during the winter.
The best control can be obtained
while the weeds T small and
growing rapidly. Good control can
be obtained on all of the annual
broadleaf weeds by spraying with
l to 2 pounds of actual 2,4-D ann
inc per acre. If you are using a
small knapsack sprayer, use about
three tablespoons of a 2 pound per
gallon formulation of 2,4-D anime
per 1000 square feet in one gal
lon of water.
You can safely spray around
shrubs, hedges, and trees when
spraying weeds. The points to re-
member are: /. Use only the am
inc formulation of 2,4-D. 2. Spray
when there is no wind. 3. Keep ac.
tual spray from coming in con.
tact with shrubs and trees. There
is no danger of drift if there i!
no wind and the nozzle is helC
within Is inches of the ground.
