ASC Advises, MCheck Your Storage*” A call to “check your storage” was issued here today; to all farmers who intend pitting any of their 1959 crops under the price-support program. H. S.

Lake Brittle was reopened to fishing May 4, ar.d so far, Sheridan reports, bass catches have been slow and bream catches fair to good, depending upon the anglers’ skill. Bream sizes have been running large, or.e fisherman pulling in 25 bream that totaled 16 pounds in weight.' Good bream growth is the result of the lake being drained and ridden of competitive rough fish two years ago.

The addition of two classrooms is necessary because this addition will give only one more classroom than is .now used in the present high school building. At present in use is 1 library, I home economics room, 1 science room, 1 business room and 6 class rooms.

Eevery effort as expended by the F-H.A. and the F.F.A. aoys and girls and their sponsors in preparing a delicious supper and seeing that everyone had a delightful time at the picnic held recently at Davis Lake. Though many parents availed themselves of the opportunity; others failed to take advantage of the .chance to visit with the faculty members, to meet their neighbors and to even get to know their children better. Parents who did not attend missed a wonderful opportunity to meet with folks who have the same interests as they, their schools and their children, one subject which is common ground to all parents. • “ < ^ YOUR CONGRESSMAN REPORTS * By Ret. Burr P. Harrison Washington—What has happened to the hrghly-controyersial Federal Commission on CiVil'Rights? Two years ago it was established by the Congress, at the request of President Eisenhower, after extended debate. Despite the earnest contention that no such new federal agency \yas either proper or necessary, and that the proposal artiounted to a contemptuous displacement of the State and local judiciadies, legislation establishing the Commission was pushed through, on the grounds that voting rights were being denied arbitrarily to Negro citizens in. the South, and that other civil rights were being thrust aside. Well, the Commission has Deen open for business from many months, but it hasn t exactly been overwhelmed with allegations of mistreatment pf the Constitution.il guaranties of Citizen?. s In this fiscal year, the Commission is spending an estimated $790,000 to investigate specific complaints and civil rights matters in general. The President’s budget for the new fiscal year, beginning July .1, includes $288,000 to kee~< the Commission in business until it makes its report to Congress o.i or before September 9. Unde* present law, the agency is scheduled to go out of existence 60 days after it files its report, but Mr. Eisenhower is asking that its life be extended two years. When the Commission came before the House Appropriations Committee a few weeks ago, it reported that it had received through April 30, a total of 922 complaints. Of these, 114 were disregarded as “illegible, anonymous, a b u s . v e, etc.” Of the remainder,^ 10 claimed denial of voting rights and 498 involved other claimed rights. Two unsworn voting complaints and 15 other complaints came from Vrenia. ' >-! It is interesting to note that in the same period, the • Commission received 60 complaints of civil rights violations in New York. State, 26 from Ohio, 25 from Pennsylvania, 45 from California, 25 from Illinois and 15 from the “Federal City” itself—the District of Columbia. The Commission reported that it had 73 persons on its payroll, including a staff d ir e c t o r at $22,500 a year, a deputy director at $15,392, and three other administrative persons at $$14,204 each. Dr. John A. Hannah, a Michigan educator and chairman of the Commission, recalled that the group had held hearings on voting rights in Montgomery, Ala.; hearings on housing in New“Yorlc City. Chicago, Los Angeles and Atlanta, Ga., and a conference on education in Nashville, Term. The Commission also set up State advisory committees, “in all of the States except Alabama, Mississippi and South Carolina.

Dr. Hannah explained that the complaints from outside the South largely involved disc r i m in‘a t i on and segregation in' housing. He acknowledged that his work on the Commission had made a. contribution to his knowledge of life in the South: “Frankly, I was surprised and pleased at what we found in the housing area in Atlanta; there is a better opportunity provided for middle-class and high-class housing for at least some of these Negroe in Atlanta than in many dries in my part of the country.” Opportunity Thursday s^arc 9'ft buys/ Just In Tupe For GRADUATION 20% Discount on WATCHES and JEWELRY i Come in & see our table of SPECIAL ITEMS Closed Saturday May 30th (Memoria Open until 9 P.

The Horseless Carriage A man bered for who should be rememhis unique association with the eiirly history of the automobile, but who has gone down into oblivion, was Dr. Charles C. Booth of Youngstown, Ohio. He was the first physician to use an automobile in his practises and was an ardent advocate of the replacement of Old Dobbin by the new contraption. So much so that he built his own and, in 18%, entered it in a race sponsored by Cosmopolitan magazine. Part of the course]ran through the streets of New York, but this is not pertinent. It seemsj that Dr. Booth’s wife was killed by a runaway horse and he swore that this dangerous means of locomotion had to go. At first glance, it would seem ironic that Dr. Booth could be so moved by j a tragedy involving a horse that he bent his energies towards replacing this animal with a mechanical monster, the drivers of which manage to kill about 40,000 people each year. But let’s look back a minute. The year 1909 is said to be the horse’s peak year. Some expert has taken the information that there were 3,850 people' killed during the period in accidents involving horse-drawn equipment, the number of horses the country, assigned an average 500 miles of travel pe.' year to each and come up with a horse mileage death rate of 30.0. Compare this to the nation's motor vehicle mileage death rate (deaths per 100 million miles of travel) of! about 5;4 last year! ' horses and estimated then in IHorses jean be dangerous because horses have a mind of their own and are sometimes unpredictable. A motor vehicle can “do only what its human operator causes it to do, and so we have about 49,000 trafa year. fic deaths Selective Service The draft has been extended for four years, until July 1, 1963. This meafis that the young men of the country must continue to ex* pect to serve in the military forces. This series of articles outlines the basic responsibilities and rights of young men under the draft law. This is the first article i'n the series. i Generally, every man is required to register under the draft law within five days of his 18th birthday. He may register at any local board office, but he should be certain to give his home address, for that will determine the local board which will always have his records and which will deal with his case. , If a main is on active duty with the Armed Forces on his 18th birthday, He need not register at that time. Men on active duty must,register within 30 days after they lcai e the service. Aliens born after September 15, 1925, with a few specified exceptions, must also register within six months ;tfter entering the United States or at the age of 18, whichever is la ter. Any person who at age 18 is exempt from registration, must, however, changes. Failurt the’law, cution, p register when his status' _! to register, like failure to comply with other provisions of play subject men to proseir to induction out of turn and ahet d of other men. After he registers, each man is required by law to keep his local board informed of any change in his address, or any change in his personal situation which might effect his liability to serve, j The good old days was that period when people were referring to another time as the good old days. * * * • The big guns in business are generally those who have never been fired.

'I Memorial Day While the South was figjhting to its wo.Memo- .Memofree itself from the Union, men were planting the beginnings of one of the most reverent national holidays of the U. Srial Day. The nation was still torn by the Civil War when Southern women began to honor the dead from both sides of the Mason-Dixon line by scattering flowers on their graves. According to research experts the women of Columbus, Miss., decorated the graves of Union and Confederate soldiers in 1863. Two years later, Mrs. Sue j Landou Vaughan, a descendant I of John Adams, second president of the U.S., led some women ini strewing flowers at a military cemetery in Vicksburg, Miss. As the custom spread), General John A. Logan, comrhander-inchief of the Grand Army of the Republic, was persuaded! to set a uniform date on which i to honor the Union dead. In 1868, Logan issued a^Tgeneral order to all Grand Army posts; setting aside May 30 “for the purpose of strewing with flowers or otherwise decorating the graves of comrades who died in defense of their country.” 1 The first celebrations in the North exalted the Union armies for their victory over the South. But the theme victor and vanquished gradually disappeared. As the U. S. passed through the S p a ni sh-A merican War, the World Wars and the Korean War, Memorial Day became a tribute to the nation and to all those who have died for it.

Weekly Farm Price Outlook HOGS £ Farmer: can look for some additional seasonal stern gth in hog prices in the next two or three weeks, but shouldn't expect it to climb as sharply or as much as last year. ’Look for a, gradual climb into summer with the seasonal peak likely in July. Good prices should prevail during most of August, although a seasonal downturn will be in evidence whichwilkontinue into the fall. But the trend to. wards earlier farrowings should cushion the extent of decline in fall prices. So—if you have feeder pigs that will soon be ready for market, it will pay you to push your feeding program and take advantage of the mid-summer seasonal upturn inf prices. If you plan to market this fall, the earlier you can get them in the better. November will probably see the price bottom as a result of the shift to earlier farrowings.
