and letters to have the House
restore the $50 million postal
cut when the bill comes up for
House action tomorrow. They
want TO make sure there are
enough funds voted for salary
purposes and to avoid Job
layoffs.
Post Office Department off,
cials declare that unless the
committees cuts are substan-
TALLY restored, at least 5000
present letter carriers and
postal clerks will have to be
dismissed. The department, in
fact, had asked for 1855 addi-
tional jobs-mostly letter car
riers in connection with its
intended mail expansion pro-
gram for new suburban areas.
The House committee re-
quired both Treasury and Post
Office to absorb all the cost
OF the second phase Of last
years pay law which goes into
effect January /. Most Federal
departments and agencies al
ready have absorbed at least
AZ per cent of the cost OF the
first phase of the pay raise
which took effect last Oc-
tober ID.
MON ENTARY DUES
CHECK0FF ORDER - Presi-
dent Kennedy momentarily is
expected to issue an executive
order providing for an auto
matte Government employees
union dues checkoff system.
The order would 90 into eff
feet July !, which would give
the Civil Service Commission
and the various Government
departments and agencies
enough time TO work out de-
tails with the various postal
and Government employee I'M
ions on administering the pro-
gram. The unions will pay the
cost OF the payroll deductions.
Also, the deductions will be on
a voluntary basis employees
will sign a written authorize
ton II they want their union
dues deducted from their pay
checks once month.
It's also expected that dues
checkoff privileges will be ac-
corded 10 unions who have at
least formal or exclusive rec
ognition from agencies at the
various local offices and in
stallations. Those union locals
having only informal recoRni-
ton - which means they have
less than 10 per cent OF the
eligible employees In their men,
berships will not receive union
dues cheekoff privileges.

MOSCOW, April 8 (AP).-
The Russians said today Lu-
nik-4 has hurtled l34,2l5 miles
in the first "a hours of its
flight toward the moon and is
speeding along on course.
A broadcast communioue
carried this progress report on
the lunar spacecraft fired yes
terday on its 238,850 mile
journey. With speed slacken-
ing somewhat after the initial
boost, 1t was expected to take
312 days from takeoff time to
reach the area Of the moon.
Exactly what it is supposed
to do remains a Soviet secret.
The Instrumentation, $780,
pound Lunik 4 could give the
Russians a big lead over the
United States in the race to
land a man on the moon. The
American program. stung by
three spectacular failures last
year, is far behind schedule,

Mishop Springs Community

night to plant a plenty for
yourself, a plenty for your

preacher, a plenty for the

plenty more. If you will do

Even Your Conifers
Should Be Pruned

arborvitaes and the false cy-
press is imperative If they are
to retain their interior needles
and not become a hollow shell.
Too often during a summer
drought these two kinds Of
evergreens shed their needles
and give an appearance Of be-
ing infested either by insect or
disease, when actually lack Of
moisture and plant food is the
primary cause. An annual
pruning keeps the tops in bal
ance with the roots and they
do not suffer as often from
lack of moisture and plant food.
The yews are too often wide
spreading and outgrow their
situation unless given an an
nual pruning. This not only
keeps them at q desired height
and width but produces good
branching. Also, there is less
likelihood of their suffering
under the weight Of q heavy
wet snow.
The pines, spruce and Doug
las fir are not as readily pruned
as are the yews, hemlocks, ar
borvitaes. false cypress and ce-
dars, largely because any tam
pering with the leader necessi-
tates the development Of a new
one. Actually a Mugo pine
should be pruned each season
to keep it compact and attrac-
tive. The pruning, which con-

The conifers, those needed
evergreens that are SO widely

not as frequently pruned as
they should be. The arborvi-

green's should be pruned each

and easily and quickly done
But it means a great deal in
the years Of useful life as a
landscape plant.
Background Plants
A pine tree, however. can not
be given such a thorough prun-
ing for very long. Each time
the leader is cut a new one
must be trained to take it's
place. The same is true for
spruce and Douglas fir. This
does not mean that they should
not be pruned. nor does it
mean that their useful life
cannot be increased by pruning.
OF course, none of these are,
or should be. q part of a
foundation planting. They be-
long In the background, as
specimen paintings and in other
situations where large trees
have a place. Thus there is
little point in heavy pruning
unless it be to keep them
within bounds. In q proper site
they are most unlikely to lose
needles or lack In vigor and
health.
Should such trees show g.
tendency to grow too tall, then
the leader should be cut and a
new one trained to take its
place a year or so later.
The false cypress (Chamae-
cyparis) comes in so many
forms that q general state
ment may be misleading. The
dwarf Hinoki cypress &C. OBJ
tusanana) needs very little If
any pruning at any time. The
moss cypress &C. pisifera squar-
rosa) and the plume cypress
&C. pisifera plumosa) will lose
their needles badly and look
very untidy without an annual
pruning. The former is q mod
crate grower while the latter
can be a forest-sized tree. But
there are dwarf forms Of both
that need little If any pruning
Many Kinds Of jumpers
The jumpers offer almost as
wide a range In form as does
the false cypress. There are
trailing jumpers that are suit
able for ground covers, and
there is the familiar Virginia
(red) cedar. q juniper, which
grows to 40 feet or more. In
between these two there are
such familiar forms as the
pfitzer juniper and the blue
leaf. plants that grow to 4, s or
6 feet in height. All can be
sheared as needed to keep them
within bounds and strong
enough to withstand heavy
loads of wet snow. The trailers,
do not need pruning although
in some situations 1t would
