He said the problem of operating from, airfields surrounded by a civilian community is one that aviaiton leaders did not anticipate at the time the fields were established. He said air fields were located well cut from civilian communities,. only to have the communities grow out to surround them. These air fields, he said, now rep•resen* a multi-billion dollar in'vestment and a costly move. However, he said the location of reserve units presents a different problem. He said that the, reserve units must be reasonably near the homes of their members 'or they “will he useless to us when we need them most.” On young black bass the smallmouth has pronounced vertical -bars' on- its sides; a largemopth has a pronounced lateral dark line running fjoin gills to tail.

Democrats To Use Part-Time Issue On Ike Keep Health Issue Before Nation In Indirect Manner WASHINGTON (UP) T h e Democratic high command was reported in agreement today that it should make full use of the ■part-time President” issue in the 1956 campaign against President Eisenhower. This viewpoint was attributed to the campaign advisers of the three active Democratic presidential contenders and to the ranking officials in party chairman Paul M. Butlers national headquarters. Mr. Elsenhower erated any doubts that hi? second term candidacy Tuesday by passing the word through his congressional leaders that he is still available. He met with them at Gettysburg. Pa., where he is recuperating from W iutwiinal oper-;;WH >a«t month, According to Sen. Styles Bridges, the President told the GOP loaders that he felt in better physical condition now than when hemadehia second term announcement Feb. 29. five months after his heart attack. . Mx. ItanhHsv have>aaid that he had long been bothered by intestinal trouble and was glad to have it cleared up. By hitting at Mr. Eisenhower as a part-time President, the Democrats apparently hope to keep the health issue before the public in an indirect way. This technique would: be calculated to minimise the risk that stress on the President’s health might backfire with the voters. Democratic leaders expect their presidential nominee to bounce around the country on a strenuous campaign schedule in contrast to Mr. Eisenhower’s. The President made it plain last winter that he . thinks barnstorming is beneath the dignity of a sitting President and that he would have no part of it —whatever the state of his health. After Tuesdays developments, senate Democratic leader Lyndon p. Johnson said he was glad EisentoW! W- health •s such that he is up to an arduous campaign.” . “It* will be an arduous campaign," Johnson added. ’ Advisers to Adlai E. Stevenson, Gov. Averell Harriman and Sen. Elites Kefauver were said to have agreed that the “part-time President” issue should be exploited. The managers of these three Democratic candidates held a strategy conference here with Butler and other party officials last month. • - q If yon uave something to sell oi rooms for rent, try a Democrat Want Ad. u unngi results.

New Hope Arises On Poslal Rate Boost Senate Committee To Start Hearing WASHINGTON (UP) — New hope appeared in the senate today for President Eisenhower's 430mllllon dollar postal rate Increase bill. The senate post office and civil Service committee set hearings on the house-approved measure for next Tuesday, and one member told a reporter that prospects' for senate passage "are not too dim.” Earlier, committee members had said there was small hope for the bill in the senate. They predicted that the end-of-session rush, plus the prospect of lengthy hearings.; would probably choke off its chances this year. But Sen. A. S. (Mike) Monroney (D-Okla.), a member of the committee, said, "the bill is important enough that it should get out of committee and be left to the senate for decision.” The bill as passed by the house last Friday would add a penny an ounce to first-class and airmail rates, making the charge 4 cents for a first-class letter and 7 cents for airmail. Other rates would also be raised.

Daily Mail reporter Walter Farr said Khrushchev planned to take "a long holiday.” ; , He quoted “an authority in a position to know the full facts” as saying Khrushchev's, position in the; Weakened because he must be regarded as an irresponsible drunk. The “authority" also ■ said the :-p®rty leader has played-into the hands ot a powerful group whierf .plans to destroy him.
