The modern pens were a model
Of cleanliness and efficiency, an
example to farmers of how pork
can be scientifically and inexpen
sively produced in the Virgin Is
lands. Commission Brown report
ed that there had been absolutely
no trouble with disease in the
hog breeding project and that Lit
tiers averaged about ten pigs each.
He told the Governor of plans to.
help private breeders build their
own sanitary pig facilities similar
to the Government pens, with the
breeder supplying the materials
and the Department donating the
labor and selling the farmer his
original stock.
Governor PaieWonsky then NOV
ed on to the expanded experimen
tai station at Estate Lower Love,
where the Department is building
its own administration building,
complete with 10000 gal1on CHS
cistern for only $4,000. The new
quarters will provide nine offices
plus reception and sanitary faciI-
tiles at a cost less than $500 per
square foot.
Here, too, the Governor saw so
acres being planted in vegetables
by machine for the mainland vim
ter market. Twenty acres is being
planted with tomatoes, ten with
peppers, fifteen with cucumbers,
and five with okra, in addition to
these, another so acres of private
garden land is being planted with
similar crops, while other farmers
are planning to market papayas
and avocados. 'This is an impress
siye beginning, the Governor
said, Sin your drive to make the
Islands an important source of
food both for export and home
consumption"
Commissioners Brown said that
5000 tomato plants were being
being planted in each acre and
that each plant would yield I to
8 pounds. Fourteen thousand pep
per plants to the acre will yield
about two pounds per plant. It is
expected that the farmer will get
from 10 to l6 cent per pound for
his peppers and about 10 cents a
pound for tomatoes. AT these rates
the farmer can make a good pro-
fit and the consumer can benefit
from a substantial reduction in
his cost of living.
Commissioner Brown said that
5000 native fruit trees will be
distributedsat cost to farmers and
householders, beginning in about
two weeks. These will include
soursop, cashew. mesple, guava,
sugar apple and mango trees.

An anti-discrimination pro-

ION the 21st day Of July,
1868, the Congress, by joint
resolution, arbitrarily re-
solved that the Fourteenth
Amendment had become a
part Of the Constitution Of
the United States and di-
rected the Secretary Of State
to so proclaim. Obviously,
the Congress proceeded upon
nothing more than the in
formation contained in the
proclamation made by the
Secretary Of State which was
furnished to the Congress on
the previous day.
These docum ents to
which I refer are documents
which the Supreme Court Of
the United States has held
that courts will not go be-

Court Of the United States
needs to do is to look at
these documents which show
on their face the fraudulent
claim that the Fourteenth
Amendment became q part
of the Federal Constitution.
1.-THE Supreme Court Of
the United States has never
said that this amendment
was lawfully adopted. What
1t has said is that it will as
sumo, without deciding, that
the amendment was adopted.
The court has furtner nelo'
that the question as to
whether or not the amend
ment was adopted is a 'politi-
cal one with which courts
will not interfere"
In 1862, however. the Su-
preme Court in a famous
case on reapportionment
broke the ice on a political
question" and reversed its
previous position for the
first time in nearly 80 years.

FEC Chief Offers Plan for Exposure
And Holding Candidates. Costs Down

provided, on the basis Of their
own reports, only 234,913
minutes Of free or sustain
ing time to the campaign.
The free time therefore to-
tailed slightly less than Z per
cent of the paid time.
Under both Mr.. Henry and
his predecessor, Newton
Minow, the commission has
endeavored to urge licensed
broadcasters to donate time
to candidates for office. The
1862 study Is one prong Of
that effort. The industry is
petitioning Congress to make
it permanently possible for
stations to give free time to
major candidates without be-
ing similarly obligated to the
extraneous figures who enter
campaigns without broad
support or hope of winning.
Individuals have been en-
couraged in campaigns to
raise money by public sub
scription in order to buy
time for political debates. The
educational television chan
nels are being presumed to
overcome their inhibitions
against political participa-
ton, an attitude which stems
from the fact that many are
supported by State legisla-
lures.
The FEC has contemplated
an order that would require
stations to supply a greater
quota Of public service time
during campaigns. But such
an order would be difficult to
draft and apply because of
the range Of candidates for
local, State and national Of
fees who would be eligible for
the time.

Mr.. McKeage asserts that
six Of the Southern States
allegedly ratifying the

full governments, but he says:

But how can the illegai-

did originally by q Joint res
olution. It took only q 81 per

1868 to order the Secretary

need take only 81 per cent
today to declare the Four

television would become a
vehicle for the success Of
fice-seekers endowed with
superficial advantages In
looks and manner have been
dissipated by evidence that it
enhances the capacity Of the
electorate to make sound
choices.
But evils have developed
along with the benefits.
Television and radio are esti-
mated to account for IL per
cent Of the cost Of modern
campaigning and the over
all cost has reached q dis
proportionate point that
threatens the integrity and
morality Of politicians.
Candidates paid the sta
lions $14.9 million for spot
announcements alone during
1862 and perhaps an equal
amount to the film and re-
cording studios that pre-
pared the tapes. Document
tary films, which cost as
much as $4,000 to produce
before they are aired on
prime time, have become an
important political device.
No major candidate can now
feel that he Is fully Compel
ing unless he is backed by q
documentary and o heavy
sprinkling Of spots.
The trend Is manifest
television campaign expenses
will continue to rise rapidly
and their only limit, because
of the holes in the Federal
expenditures law, viii be the
availability Of money. The
FEC cannot impose limits
without raising the charge
Of censorship and Congress
does not seem ready to cope
with the problem.
Mr.. Henry's idea would
have the virtue in these cir
cumstances of enabling can
didates to compete on rea-
sonably equitable terms in

CHARLES BARTLETT

The new chairman Of the
Federal Communications
Commission, e. VILLA m
Henry, has come up with an
idea that will appeal to those
who are anxious to expand
the impact Of television on
American politics while re-
straining its demands upon
the pocketbooks Of the can
didates. Ii-r
The idea would require no
more than an order by the
FEC. Television and radio
stations would be directed in
the campaign ahead to fur
nish free time, equally di-'
vided among the candidates,
in direct proportion to the
amount Of time that was sold
for political purposes.
Thus II two contending
candidates for the Senate
purchased q total Of three
hours broadcast time from q
television station during the
campaign, the station would
be obliged to make another
three hours Of free time
available to them on an equal
basis. If one candidate bought
three hours and the other
none, the free time would
still be divided equally.
The idea is still in an early
stage In Mr.. Henry's think
ing. It has not been dis
cussed with the rest Of the
commission or with leaders Of
the broadcast industry. The
problems involved in the de-
tails Of its enforcement have
not been examined. Its future
win rest upon the reaction
it produces.
The implications Of the
idea are defined BY the FEC
study Of political broadcast
ing during the 1862 cam
paign. In that year candi-
dates spent SOL million for
the purchase from radio and
television stations Of some
831, 1861 minutes Of program
time and 2.600,677 spot an
nouncements. The stations
