Farm Questions OfThe Week

if I have 50 percent of my hay
needs?
A-Buy corn to supplement
your hay.
Q-How is the cheapest way I
can winter my beef cows?
A Use roughage for one-half
Of the ration. and buy corn to
make up the rest.
Q How can l sc. rid of bats
in the attic of my house.
A Bats seek refugees similar
to caves. Att.cs make a good
substitute. The only way to eli
inmate the problem completely
is BY plugging the holes by
which bats enter. Mothballs or
napthalene flakes spread on the
floor Of the attic will repel
bats. Use three to ten pounds
depending on the size of the
attic. The average attic will re-
qtllre about five pounds of nap
thalene flakes. The flakes are
effective for a period of about
one month. On bright day, use
hardware cloth to plug holes in
the attic, where outside light
shining through indicates a hole.

Star Staff Writer

It's q rare day when two Of
the Nations leading civil rights
organizations and the Justice
Department ask the Supreme
Court to help out some hard
core segregationists.
But that's how it was yester-
day.
The occasion was a case in
volving a State court injunc-
ton barring the National
States Rights Party from pass
ing out handbills and from
holding a meeting in 1861 in
the Birmingham suburb of
Fairfield, Ala.
Edward r. Fields, the party's
information director. and Rob-
ert Lyons. its youth organizer,
were held to have violated the
Injunction. They were fined
$50 each and sentenced to
serve five-day jail terms.
Appeal Is Backed
The American Civil Liberties
Union carried their case to the
Supreme Court, where their ap-
peal was backed by the Nation
al Association for the Advance
ment of Colored People Legal

would be like locking the barn
after the horse was gone" he
said.
Mr.. Parsons said the ques-
ton in the case was whether a
city could obtain, in advance,
an Injunction ito preserve
peace and good order"
The NAACP Fund did not
make an oral argument, but it
had on file with the court a
brief arguing that the State
may not proceed against Mr..
Fields and Mr.. Lyons in a way
which denies First Amend
ment rights"
Difficult as it may be to
take this position in this case,
petitioner believes that First
Amendment rights must be Wig
orously guarded If the propo-
nents of equality are to
triumph" the fund said.
The Supreme Court will an
nounce its decision in the case
later.

Handbills passed out earlier
that prompted the city to OBJ
tain the Injunction, according
to appeal papers, had said
The Niger gets everything he
Demands" and white Su-
premacy CAN be saved"
Assistant Attorney General
Burke Marshall, head of the
Justice Departments Civil
Rights Division, argued there
was no evidence the two men
violated the injunction against
passing out handbills or hold
ing the meeting.
Justice Brennan brought out
that the men were arrested be-
fore the meeting was supposed
to start, and Chief Justice
Warren asked whether 1t was
true that 40 of the 50 persons
there were policemen.
Prevention Sought
Attorney Frank B. Parsons
representing the City Of Fair
field. told the justices that the
city fathers got the injunction
to head off" activity designed
to "subvert peace and good or.

Department.
The reason was that the case
presents an issue Of freedom of
speech. perhaps the only issue
that would have prompted the
three groups to come to the aid
Of the two segregationists.
Melvin L. wulf, the ACLUs
legal director. said in yester-
days oral arguments that the
State Injunction was an uncon-
stitutional prior restraint upon
freedom of speech.

ical assembly can be enjoined
