Africans, Asians, Latin
Americans. and Senator Bar
~ Goldwater are as one
when 1t comes to the recent
improvement In relations be-
tween President Kennedy and
Chairman Khrushchev. For
them the news Is bad. For
different reasons, naturally.
Senator Goldwater seems tat
this distance) not to trust
anyone who is not an Amer
lean, especially II he Is a
Russian, But the Latin
Americans, Africans, and
Asians U.aafas for short)
see 1t this way: If mother
and father start to compare
notes, how can you play one
off against the other?
AS an example, Fidel Cas-
tro would find 1t much hard
er to scratch America with
his beard today. At the mo-
ment Mr.. Khrushchev is
anxious to buy wheat, and
sign test-ban treaties, and
move slowly Of erratically)
along the one-step road to
further gestures Of relative
friendship. In these circum-
stances he would find 1t very
difficult to support q revo-
lutionary anti-American re-
gime on an island Just off
Florida. If such a regime
were to make its first ap-
pearance right now. He
would surely not even con-
slider sending missiles to en-
courage such a regime in an
adventure against the United
States. Across the Caribbean.
In British Guiana, DR.. Cheddi
Jagan, left-leaning prime
minister. might take note.
And again. say Mr..
Tshombe (the late President
Of Katanga) had waited I'M
til today to declare his prov
ince independent of the
Congo. Would the United
States now feel as strong an
urge to support United Ma
tons action to put Mr..
Tshombe down as it felt in
years gone by? At one time
there we're only three men in
all Of Washington (Adlai
Stevenson, Mennen Williams,
and one mystery mani adj
vocating support Of UN. &C
ton in Katanga, against
general doubts all around
them, and against active op-
position from the British.
The argument that swung it
was that If the United States
did not support the Katanga
operation, the opportunity
would lie open for the Rus
SLAMS to move into the Congo
in strength.
Homes Rise a Blow
So the general Afro-Asian
desire to destroy the Tshom-
be regime-for its own po-
litical purpoSes-was salts
fled by the United States,
on the ground that II the
Americans did not, then the
Russians might move to sat
isfy 1t. But, right now, the
Russians are not anxious to
rock the boat by stirring up
rebellions in the Laafa
world.
Incidentally, the British
minister most actively against
the Katanga action was Lord
Home. His promotion to be
Prime Minister Of Great
Britain is another blow tc
the Laafas Of the world. He
diSlikes their emotional APP
proach to politics. He has
openly accused them Of APP
plying double standards Of
international morality. His
attitude to the United Ma
lions lies halfway between

Fish Die 81 Miles
Down Pearl River -

Fish were reported to be
dying for some 81 river miles
south of Jackson on the Pearl
River Sunday and Monday OF
last week. On Sunday, April
81, fish in the Byram area
were dying according to
Game Warden Supervisor
Ernest Sullivan. Hollie Sol
journer of Hopewell, some so
river miles from Jackson,
noticed dead fish in the area
Monday. Monday night, fish
in live boxes in the George
town area died.
Billy Joe Grantham, Chief
of Pollution Division of the
Game and Fish Commission,
and Game Warden Phlip
Strong of Copiah County en-
tered Pearl River at Hope
well and travelled three miles
down river. "In this area we
saw several thousand pounds
of dead fish," stated Gran
than.
"In my opinion" continued
Grantham, "the fish kill was
due to an oxygen shortage.
The oxygen shortage was the
result of sludge and silt be-
ing brought in to solution by
the heavy rains that fell in
the Jackson area on Friday,
April 10. The sludge and silt
had been building up in the
Pearl River due to the lack
of rain and the low water
condition. The sludge and silt
is the result of the dumping
of sewage into the river by
the city of Jackson and meat
ana poultry processing plants
in the Jackson area"

Feeding Cat Fish -
G. E. Mason of Jackson
owns a cat fish farm near
Winona. He relates the fol-
lowing experience gained du-
ring his three years of feed
ing cat fish.
Mason has go acres under
water with ponds roughing
from / to Is acres in size.
The desire of individuals to
Increase production of fish IN
ponds through supplemental
has become WIDE
spread. Due to lack OF ex-
Iperience or Information rela-
tive to fish feeding numerous
mistakes by lover feeding
have taken place. A Delta
planter killed all the fish in
a five acre pond by dumping
a ton of insoluble cotton seed
meal into his pond. The meal
CONSUMED all the oxygen in
the water with the result that
the fish in the pond suffocated
lover night.
Feeding test indicate that
the feed intake by fish is re-
lated to the size of fish and
Temperature of the water.
When this water temperature
becomes warm fish will con-
sume daily up to 5 percent Of
their body weight but when
water temperature drops be-
low 40 degrees most fish be-
lcOmes almost dormant doing
very little feeding.
Based on experience and
available data the following
feeding schedule is recon-
mended by Mason:
/. During winter months
when water temperatures are
)below 60 degrees supplement
ltary feeding is not needed.
2. When water temperature
REACHES 60 degrees start the
feeding using a high protein
feed numerous feed COM
panies are now processing 35-
40 per cent protein fish food)
feeding on basis of go of
body weight of feed consum-
ing fish in pond.
8. AS walter temperature
rises feed may be increased
to $50 of body weight Of fish
in pond up to maximum of 80
pounds of pelleted feed per
day. Over feeding is not only
uneconomical but may also
be disastrous.
Mason had to turn down
lover $4,000. 90 worth of orders
for lingering cat fish this
spring. Orders were turned
down from Mississippi, Loui-
siana, Tennessee and Indiana.
The lingering or small fish
were used to stock ponds and
lakes.

area. The East Prong of
