Welfare BUDGET

D. C. taxpayers have little
cause to rejoice over the
fiscal 1868 public welfare
budget. 1t will cost them mil
lions in Federal matching
funds which could have been
used to implement a really
effective public assistance
program.
The District practice Of re-
fuSing aid to any family with
an able-bodied man in it, be
he legal husband and father,
step-father, com m o n-law
husband, sor short-term par
amour, is more expensive
than ever in financial terms.
The rising population of
Junior Village costs $185 per
month per child, all in local
money. The new foster care
board rate of $57 monthly is
all local money. But the
average aid to dependent
children grant to a child in
his own home is only $32 a
month, over half of which is
Federal money.
~ Quite apart from the fact
that a child belongs with his
parents unless the home is
grossly unsuitable, quite apart
from the fact that the pur-
pose of public assistance is
ito strengthen family living,
quite apart from the i'm
measurable cost to the COM
munity in crime, sickness
and personal instability
caused by refusing to aid
indigents, continued Congress
sional insistence on forcing
children out of their own
homes is costing District
taxpayers good, hard, i'm
mediate cash.
To an even greater degree,
the hiring of a large investi-
gative staff instead of social
workers is expensive in local
money. The new inVeStigative
budget is 100000. For this
we will receive the same in
Federal matching funds. If
we spent the $500,000 on
social workers, we could get
$1,500,000 in Federal match
ing Under the terms Of the
1862 public welfare amend
ments. For the same local
money a social service staff
of twice as many persons
could be hired. These social
workers could check on the
continuing eligibility of re-
cipents and, at the same
time, offer desperately needed
casework services.
This year Washington civic
groups were almost unani-
nous, in testimony before the
House and Senate Appropri-,
ations subcommittee, on the
need to aid dependent chill
dren of unemployed parents
in their own homes and on
the need for more social work.

Tribute to Poet

When we pay tribute 10
American poets. let's not
forget our own poetess in
Washington, D: Georgia
Douglas Johnson-who has
contributed so much to the
edification and soul salts
faction of thousands through
her verse and writings. She
lives at what she terms Half
Way house, 1416 s st. NV. in
Washington, D. c.. She has
received praise from the press
and periodical reviews from
all around the Nation, along
with many special citations
and awards.
This writer regrets that in
this day of great material
achievement and scholastic
concern with sciences and
mathematics not so much
time is left the student to
dream a little with the bards.
We urge that Georgia
Douglas johnson be paid
tribute and. that those who
may be acquainted with her
works by reading the choice
little gems appearing almost
weekly in some of our papers,
send for some of the inspiring
material she has given of
herself to the world.

Unheeded Sirens

My critically i'll son nearly
lost his chance for life when
the rescue squad ambulance
in which he was being trans
ported from Washington
Sanitarium to Childre ms
Hospital narrowly missed be-
ing struck broadside at the
Piney Branch and Flower
avenue intersection by q
careless driver.
BY not giving way to the
ambulance, eight lives were
put in jeopardy; my sons
my husbands and my own
two volunteer firemen, and
Mr.. Careless Driver and the
two small children riding
with him, who struck their
heads on the dashboard.
Why is this example &
fairly common occurrence?
Why must these courageous
men, who give their own
time, day or night, and with
out compensation, have to
take life and limb in hand
while trying to help others?
Such men as Leroy E. Shell
baker and Leo M. Tins, jr.,
of the VIII ton Rescue
Squad, and Pvt. Frank Bell,
Pvt. Buzzy Carragher and
Pvt. William Kersey of the
Chillum Adelphi escue
Squad we're all involved in
caring for my son following
a bicycle accident which left
him unconscious for a week
and paralyzed. Their care
and concern was incompara-
BILE to anything I've seen.
The public must wake up
to this emergency. The wall
ing siren has got to be
obeyed.

the sacrifices we have to
makes in the present. But
Lord RuSsell'S doctrine also
tells us that we cannot pre-
dict the future consequences
of present action, and that
only a fanatic will be per-
suaded to "inflict a COM
p&atively certain present
evil for the sake of a COM
paratively doubtful future
good" Hence Lord RusSell's
doctrine of the calculus of
consequences would have die
tated the conclusion in 1899
that it was not worth while
to fight Hitler, just as it die
tates today his repeatedly
voiced conclusion that it is
not worth while to resist the
menace of communism. In
fact, his doctrine seems to be
that it is never worth while
to fight any evil.
Lord Russell claims to
speak for civilized man" in
condemning President Ken
nedy's counteraction against
the Russian bases set up in
Cuba for nuclear blackmail
of the Western Hemisphere.
But really he speaks only for
craven, atheistic man, who
wants to save his life and
his comforts at all costs, even
at the cost Of abandoning the
moral struggle which alone
gives meaning to life. We
cannot save civilization by
consenting to become zom-
bies in a Communist concen-
tration camp. We can save
civilization only by standing
up for human dignity and
morality and by showing
Khrushchev that, as has been
demonstrated at all great
crises of civilization, brave
men would rather die on
their feet than live on their
knees.

Wondering AIbotross Being TroiIed
By THOMAS R. HENRY

The wandering albatroSs,
largest of all sea birds, may
have a special winter feeding
ground near the South Pole.
Search for this and study
of the birds ways of life will
be a major objective Of DR..
j. L. Sladen and a group of
Johns Hopkins University
biologists in the Antarctic
this winter. This will be part
of this country's Antarctic
program for the year.
The Johns Hopkins inveSti-
gators will make a compare
tive study of the behavior,
geology and distribution Of
the albatross and the second
largest of sea birds, the giant
petrol. Bird-banding will be
a major activity. 1t is planned
to band about 10000 birds.
Much data is necessary to
understand the role of the
big birds in transportation of
plant seeds and their possible
Importance as carriers OF
disease organisms. Further
data to be collected includes
the relationship between al
batross chicks and adults,
starvation in wintering-over
fledglingS and segregation of
rookeries.
Dyes to Be Used
With the use of bright
dyes and with the co-opera-
ton of both commercial and
expedition ships, the investi-
gators hope to get informa-
ton on the movement Of
specific age groups. Wander
ing albatroSs chicks, it is
known, remain near the home
nest for two years so that
the Johns Hopkins research
ers can make continuous OBJ
servations over a long period.
They plan to continue the
work for two Antarctic sum-
mers and one winter.
The same group will carry
out observations on the small
Ter albatroSses, or molly
mauks, which breed in the
sub-Antarctic islands of
South Georgia and migrate
to South Africa and South
America during the winter.
In these migrations they form
a connecting link between the
isolated populations of the
Antarctic and the fauna Of
other continents in the
Southern Hemisphere.

was worth while burning a
number of people at the
stake in order that the sur
vivors might go to heaven,
but if it was doubtful wheth-
er heretics would go to hell,
the argument for persecution
was not valid. If it is GER
tain that Marks eschatology
is true, and that as soon as
private capitalism has been
abolished we shall all be hap
by ever after, then it is right
to pursue this end by means
of relationships, concentra-
ton camps, and world wars;
but if the end is doubtful or
the means not sure to achieve
it, present misery becomes an
irresistible argument against
such drastic methods. If it
were certain that without
Jews the world would be a
paradise, there could be no
valid objection to AuSchwitz;
but If it is much more prob
able that the world result
ing from such methods would
be a hell, we can allow free
play to our natural humani-
tartan revulsion against
cruelty"
According to him, Hitler's
murder of six million Jews
is to be attributed, not to
an evil demonic tie n dency
which had taken possession
of the fuehrer and the Ger
man people, but rather to a
mistaken calculation that a
world without Jews would be
a paradise. But how are the
rest of us to act who dis
agree with people like Hit
Ter, Stain and Khrushchev2
On Lord Russell's doctrine we
are not justified in fighting
what looks to us to be a
hideous moral evil except if
we can be assured that the
rewards which will ensue
from the fight will outweigh

The wandering albatross is
a great white bird-one of
the most fabulous of all birds.
It is remarkable for size
alone, standing about 4 feet
high, weighing up to 40
pounds and with a wing
spread as great as IS feet.
1t is equally remarkable
for endurance. 1t often &C
companies a ship for days
without ever landing on the
water. It feeds on small fish
and refuse on the ocean sur
face, sometimes eating to
such excess that it is unable
to fly and rests helplessly on
the water.
Sailors Superstition
Sailors regard it as a pro-
tector and consider shooting
it bound to bring bad luck,
although it sometimes is shot
for its wing bones out Of
which seamen make pipe
stems.
1t lays only one egg at a
time, about 4 inches long.
During breeding time it re-
sorts to solitary islands. It's
nest usually is just a natural
hollow in the earth.
Almost equally fabulous is
the giant skua, a swift, pow
erful bird Of prey. Some
times its size equals that of
the albatross. 1t pursues
other birds and forces them
to disgorge newly swallowed
prey which it catches before
it reaches the water.
It defends its nest and
eggs against any foe and
even eagles are afraid of it.
The giant is generally re-
Stricted to the south polar ice
and the Antarctic Falkland
Islands.
Sailors hate it because of
its foul odor.

THE POLITICAL MILL
Do Political Vendettos Pay OFF?
By GOULD LINCOLN

for Office, as the late senator
George Norris of Nebraska
did after he deserted the Re-
publican Party, with similar
lack of success. Indeed Gov.
Powell ran as an independ-
ent a number of years ago,
when he lost the Republican
senatorial nomination to the
late Senator Charles w.
Tobey. Or he might decide
that his only chance would
be to move into the Demo-
cratic Party-though that
seems unlikely. He has de-
family said that they CHS
Republican opponents) can't
read me out of the party"
He has made plenty Of enc
mics, however, in the party
in recent years.
May Spur g. o. p. Vote
How deep this Powell deser-
ton will go may not be known
until election day. One thing
it may do is to bring out a
larger Republican vote than
had been expected. 1t I'M
doubtedly has encouraged
the Democrats. Probably Mr..
King regrets his comments in
the primary campaign to the
effect that Gov. Powell's ad-
ministration had been "evil
and filthy" But If the Gov
ernor can swallow the char
acterization and still go to
the aid of Mr.. King, perhaps
. some of his followers can also.
New Hampshire is electing
two Senators this year-one
to fill the vacancy in the
Senate caused by the death
of the late Senator Styles
Bridges. Senator Norris Cot
ton, who is up for reelection,
probably will be less affected
by the intra-party rows than
any of the other Republican
candidates. His reelection
is expected. Representative
Perkins Bass, who won NOM
ination in a four-way struggle
for the Bridges seat, has not
yet been Endorsed for election
by Mrs. Styles Bridges who
lost the senatorial nomina-
ton to Mr.. Bass in a close
race. His Democratic oppo-
nent, Thomas J. Mcintyre, is
hopeful that the bitter con-
test for the nomination will
accrue to his benefit. The
two other contestants were
Representative Chester Nor
row and Senator Murphy, ap-
pointed to the vacant seat
by Gov. Powell. Mrs. Bridges
has no love for Gov. Powell
who turned her down for the
appointment when Senator
Bridges died. The State is
electing two new members OF
the House-becauSe Mr.. Bass
and Mr.. Perkins both gave up
election when they decided to
enter the senatorial primary.
The State is Republican in
the elections generally for
Congress and for Governor.
The G. o. P. therefore is ex-
pected to retain these two
House seats.
How far the enmity of Mr..
Warren will affect Mr.. Nix
on's race for Governor of
California remains doubtful.
It grows out of charges that
Mr.. Nixon deserted Mr.. War
rem in the race for the G. o.
P. presidential nomination at
the 1852 Republican National
Convention, and even before.
Mr.. Nixon has denied these
charges emphatically. He be-
came Vice President and
President Eisenhower ap-
pointed Mr.. Warren'S father
Chief Justice. At best Gov.
Warren's chances for the
presidential nomination were
slim-with Gen. Eisenhower
and Senator Taft the front
runners.

Personal vendettas in po-
litical campaigns, involving
two men in the same party,
are by no means unknown or
even forgotten. But rarely
have they gone to the lengths
of those this year between
Republican Gov. Wesley Pow
ell of New Hampshire and his
opponents who denied him
denomination and between
Earl Warren, jr., of Cali
fornia, son of the Chief JUS
tice, and former Vice PreSi-
dent Richard M. Nixon. Nor
have they been carried on so
openly. Gov. Powell has de-
clared he will jump party
lines to vote for the Demo-
cratic candidate for Cover
nor, John w. King, and
against Republican candi--
date John Pillsbury. Mr..
Warren has formally an
nounced he is turning Demo-
crat-giving as his reason a
determination to do every
thing he can to bring about
the defeat of Mr.. Nixon and
the election of Nixon's Demo-
cratic opponent in the guber-
Material race, Gov. Pat
Brown.
Mr.. Powell, it is now re-
ported, is hiring radio and
television time in this final
week to urge the defeat Of
Pillsbury and the election Of
Democratic John King. The
response to his earlier de-
mand that his own followers
vote against Pillsbury has not
been great.
Democrats in New Hamp-
shire, as in other parts of the
country, are hoping that Pres
ident Kennedy's handling of
the Cuban crisis will help
them in the elections next
Tuesday. In New Hampshire,
however, this bitter party
fussing has dwarfed other
issues.
Gov. PoWell's declaration
that he remains a Republican
Notwithstanding his determi-
nation to vote for the Demo-
cratic gubernatorial candi-
date is notice to the man in
the street, it seems, that he
(Powell) is motivated by
purely personal spite, al
though he would deny this
violently. Gov. Powell was
not only ambitious for cleo
ton to a third term as Gov
ernor. He had ambitions, If
reelected, to become a candi-
date for Vice President in
1864, on the Republican
ticket. All this is common
knowledge. He has announced
he is sending personal letters
to 1000 of his political fol-
lowers, urging them to rally
to him in this effort to defeat
Republican candidate Pills
bury. His appeal, based on
his own selfish interests
although he has attacked Mr..
Pillsbury as unfit for the Of
flee of Governor-does not
smell sweet. How many Re-
publicans will go along with
him and vote for Mr.. King
can only be conjectured. It
has been estimated that if
TOO do so, Mr.. King will be
elected. The question is: Will
so many hold their noses and
throw in with Gov. Powell?
Future in Party. Unlikely
Mr.. Powell was decisively
beaten in the primary cleo
ton, which was won by John
Pillsbury, a member of the
State legislature. Whether
his detection from the Repub-
lican candidate succeeds in
electing a Democrat for Gov
ernor of New Hampshire for
the first time in 40 years or
not, it seems absurd to think
he will have any future in
the Republican Party. He
may run as an independent
