hoofs and then q look at her
production chart. Could il be
that she is short on production
because she is long on the
hoof? Often times cows need
their toes trimmed just like
we need our toe nails trimm-
ed. Long toes cause a COW to
be uncomfortable while stand
ing. and this, in turn, will re-
fleet on her production. II hoof
trimming is done regularly, il
takes only a few minutes to
make them more comfortable.
Strawberry Planting
If you plan to plant straw
berries this spring, 1t is sug-
gested that you treat your soil
Tor nematodes. Apply 80 GAL
Ions Of DID per acre as the land
is being plowed and buy only
nematode-free and virus-free
plants. This typue of plant is
available from certified grow
ers in North Carolina. You
VIII need $500 plants per acre
IL you are setting your plants
two feet apart in four foot
rows. In setting your plants,
be sure that you set the grow
ing part of the crown just "a
bove the ground level. Press
SOIL firmly against roots and
water the plants if the soil is
dry.
For best results in your
strawberry planting, you
should have your soil tested
and apply phosphate. pota;s
ana lime as recommended.
Then, all you will need to do
from then on is to topdress US
ing nitrogen in April, August
and February. For fertilizing
old paintings, you need to use
SO pounds of nitrogen as soon
as you can get to thehm.

At the dedication of Gettys-

The brave men, living and

Kennedy Sees Rights
As Foctor in "a Vote

The possibility Of some back
lash from white voters against
the Democrats in the 1864
elections because of their push
ing Of civil rights is seen by
President Kennedy.
I'VE will have to wait" he
told a questioner at his press
conference yesterday, adding:
at seems to me both parties
have taken a clear position
historically and at present on
civil rights"
Speaking specifically about
the election of a Mayor in
Philadelphia next Tuesday, the
President said the civil rights
issue may be a factor in that
election. But he said he guessed
that the Democratic and Re-
publican candidates have
taken relatively the same posi-
ton on the issue.
Mayor James H. j. Tate and
his Republican challenger.
James T. McDermott, each has
said he favors q liberal stand
on racial relations. Mayor Tate
has accused Mr.. McDermott of
playing for the white vote"
Mr.. McDermott has denied this
and that he has segregationist
synpathies but said the city's
social climate Is "as bad as 1t
can be" because Of indecisive-
ness and laundering by Mr..
Tate in handling the problem.
Another questioner told the
President that the United
States Steel Corp, which has
race relations in Birmingham
Ala, has rejected the idea that
1t should use economic pres
sure in an effort to improve
race relations in Birmingham
and asked for his comment.
Mr.. Kennedy said that Roger
Blough, chairman Of the board
Of United States Steel, "has
been somewhat helpful in one
or two cases that I can think
Of In Birmingham"
Hobart Taylor, jr., executive
vice chairman of Mr.. Ken
nedy's Committee on Equal
Employment Opportunity. said
earlier that United States
Steel's Birmingham plant had
been in the process of merging
racial lines of seniority, pro-
motion and other job classifi-
cations at the instigation of
the committee.
Mr.. Taylor said there had
been little trouble over the
desegregation of the plant,
which he said began last
spring.
I In Birmingham, Arthur
Wiebel, the president Of United
States Steel's Tennessee Coal
and Iron Division, said the
company has quietly removed
some traditional barriers that
have held hundreds of Negroes
in low-paying jobs.

Dr.. Thomas Gold. one Of the
proponents Of the steady state
universe theory. was on hand
yesterday to brief reporters
about the telescopes potential
tiles.
The Austrian-born British
educated Cornell astronomer
believes the universe never
really began and win never end.
Instead, he thinks. large ag-
glomerations Of matter like
galaxies are steadily rushing
apart while new matter is Gre
ated in the space left behind.
Repression Observed
This mutual repression. of
galaxies has been observed, but
not at great enough distances
to prove or disprove the steady
state theory. Creation Of matter
in between has not been OBJ
served and probably can never
be, whether or not the theory
is correct.
The greatest reliable meas
urement so far have been to-
distances Of roughly 5 billion
light years. At this distance
things seem to be dashing away
at about half the speed Of light,
or some IS. 900 miles a second.
This is measured by the appar-
ent frightening Of the wave
lengths Of light.
theoretically the Arecibo tel
escope can look out at least
twice as far as man has been
able to peer to date.
Also in theory, things at this
distance Of 10 to II billion light
years should be rushing apart
at three-fourths of the speed
Of light.
Revolutionary Arrangement
Regardless Of what Arecibo
shows about creation and the
universe, it is certain to revo-
lutionize the astronomy Of the
solar system.
This vast dish is capable Of
sending out pulses Of energy in
beeps only a millionths Of a
second long. In this briefest of
instants light will travel only
about 500 feet; for radar meas
urements the microsecond is the
equivalent Of half that, or $50
feet.
This makes Arecibo ideal for
measuring such things as the
ionosphere, which makes short
wave communications over long

PEERS FARTHEsT YET
New Telescope in Action

it viii cost about 81 million q
year to carry on the obServa-
tory's experimental program.
The telescope is a blend Of
natural wonder and human in
genuity. It lies high In q sink
hole area Of north central
Puerto Rico where untold ages
ago subterTanean limestone
caves collapsed to leave a null
titude Of dish-shaped valleys
on the surface.
In this Lost World landscape
of incredible ruggedneSs,
scientists and engineers built
a monstrous machine more
delicately constructed than a
Swiss watch. The principal
feature is a 40 degrees sector
of a sphere which-if it were
a complete ball instead Of only
part of one-would be q third
of q mile in diameter.
Variation Tiny
1t Is nearly a fifth of a mile
from lip to lip. and more than
$50 feet deep. Yet it varies
from the absolutely spherical
by less than half an inch. This
dish is made of galvanized steel
welded mesh of about one
half inch opening.
At nearly the height of the
Washington Monument above
the bottom Of this dish hangs
a million-pound mechanism
that is actually the heart of
the telescope.
