Distractions beset us and it is a good idea occasionally Tor the sake of our personal and national sense of direction to reserve a timeJor taking stock. This country will observe National Hag Week from June J. 4 through June 20 this year '■ — let us renew the custom of showing the colors and recall the ideals for which th.ey stand. Whether snapping in a stiff breeze or hanging in dignified repose, it is imposs- ■ ible to look at the stars and stripes without seeing reflected in them both the glorious past, and the future which can belong

Parade Magazine: Juvenile delinquency, on the increase pretty nearly everywhere in America, is declining in Montana. Why? Montana scrapped its juvenile courts two years ago, insisted upon dealing with all offenders, regardless of age, in upen court. Their names, addresses, crimes, parents are all completely reportedin the newspapers. The publicity has proven a. genuine deterrent to crime. Juvenile felony case- in Montana, are down

School Loss To Industry

Kvery once in a while we find someone in the'teaching profession taking a job in business or industry, and we wonder why. » I Teaching, on the whole, is a good profession itself. The advantages are many—dean, respectable, the chance to work and helpmold young folks into useful citizens. And the old bugalHK) of not-enough pay seems to be disappearing. In this regard, teachers aren’t doing so badly any more. We wonder, however, if this is all the ,story % Could the social pressures have

BAG WORMS are -best controlled when they are §mall, and (kunage to trees and shrubs can be prevent’d. Control with insecticides should begin soon after bagworms hatch from overwintering eggs. Larvae hatch the first week of June in the more northern parts of the state. One good control is the use of malathion at the rate of two to four teaspoons per gallon water This material should not be applied to Cannaert junipers. Other ' materials suggested as effective are diazinon, toxaphene. DDV-P, ami lead arsenate. DDT is not effective on this species. Bagworms live in spindle-shaped silken bags, often festooned with bits of twigs, foliage, and berries from the host plant. As the larvae feed they pull the bag along with them. As the caterpillars grow they enlarge the bag until they mature in mid-August. At this time the bag is about 14 to 2 inches long. When the larvae have grown to this size they are difficult to control with insecticides. but can be controlled bypicking off the bags and burning them. ’ ' It is a good idea to spray plants which have beet infested with bagworms in previous years, or,which are highly susceptible such aS junipers and arbor vitae, early in the season. This is particularly important on evergreens, since plants which are defoliated usually die.

MOM USED SNAP JUDGMENT

Dear Amy: My son was married recently and had an album made of the wedding. The photographer took one picture of us (my husband and me) which wasn’t a good picture. I told my daughter-in-law I didn’t want the picture in the album. Now everybody wants to know why our picture is not in the album. Who is to blame, the photographer or I? Wondering Dear Wondering: Actually I don’t feel anyone is “to. blame.” A photographer usually takes more than one picture (for the reasons you mentioned). Then again, some people aren’t photogenic, like me, for instance. But be a good sport, Mom, have the photographer print that picture (even though you don’t like it) and have your daughter-in-law insert it in the album. It would be 4 shame to count yourself out, when everyone else is in. Dear Amy: > When my father anq mother have a fight sometimes, my mother says, “Norm, wipe that frown off. Here comes one of the neighbors.” I asked my Mom where the frown was because I didn’t see it She said, “On his face.” But I still never see it Amy, what is a frown? Gordon Dear Gordon: A frown is a smile turned upside down. Dear Amy: , t . In a recent column you printed a letter irom a sick mother who has my sympathy if the facts are the whole truth and she really has a “big jerk” for a son-in-law. But are they t 1.3 whole truth! While reading the letter, I couldn’t help noUng a few phrases that sent me back fourteen years to the circumstances my mother could create —even to an imaginary illness—to get her way. Read on, Amy. After going together for one year, engaged for three months we set our wedding date. Mj mother insisted the date be changed as three months wasn’i enough Ume to “get ready.” Su months wasn’t enough either, foi after the invitations were mailed when the time came to sign foi

Improving Justice For the Poor The other night on the television show “Arrest and Trial” viewers saw the story of a. 17-year-old girl arrested as the driver of a holdup get- ■ away car; She drove the car, true. [ but she innocently believed her boyfriend's story that he had gonw into the filling station to buy a pack of cigarettes, refusing to believe he could be a criminal. But the real impact of the tale I was in its depiction of the girl’s exi periences in an overcrowded cell of a woman's prison jammed to double its capacity. With -hardened and exI perienced cellmates, she goes ' through stages of fear and apathy, then grows increasingly “con-wise”, absorbing the anti-society, beat-tbe-law attitudes of older women in- | mates. Finally exonerated and released, she casts off efforts to help I her in favor of going, to one of her new friends at an address the older | woman gave her when she left prison : on bail . I Here was a plastic young girl | turning toward her own self-destnic- ) tion because of prison experiences ; gained when she could not furnish a ■ bailbond, even' though innocent. This week the Attorney General and proj fessionally concerned people are ■ meeting in Washintgon in a National 'Conference on Bail and Criminal ' j Justice. They are examining possible reform of the bail system. •. which can keep a poor person in jail I even when innocent. But it is no deterrent to professional criminals working with professional bondsmen I Three bills to modernize federal bail 1 laws have been introduced in the Senate by the chairman of the Con- * stitutional Rights subcommittee. Senator Ervin of North Carolina. ¥ ln Los Angeles, defendants who rannot make bond spend an average of 78 days in prison before trial. Costs of pre-trial detention total more than $lO million a year in New York city alone. A man jailed there for 55 days for lack of SIO,OOO bail was dismissed as innocent when it was shown he was 20 miles away at the time Os the holdup he was charged with committing. But he lost his job. his wife was forced to move, and he is now branded as a jailbird —for lack of money. Senator Ervin's committee believes that if investigation shows a defendant without funds is likely to return for trial, he should have a pre-trial parole ami be released. Experiments with such a method have been successfol. Justice should never be weighted against the poor just because of their poverty.

a minor, she refused. Finally agreeing, she promptly cancelled the organist and hired another also hiring an unwanted soloist. This type of “not doing anything’’ finally reached a climax a few months ago when our pastor advised breaking off all visits. If this is the case with “A Sick Mother”, my heart goes out to the daughter and the “big jerk.” We took thirteen years of emotional tantrums. I hope they’re smart and realize now that “What God hath together, let i no man put asunder.” - \ Mm. E. R. Dear Amy: My teacher keeps picking on - me. Whenever I say a word, he ’ raises the roof.

Huntington College Gets SI,OOO Grant The science department of HuntI ington college has been the recipient of a grant of SI,OOO from the National Science Foundation for the ; support of an “Undergraduate Instructional Scientific Equipment Program” and 10 transistors each of 2N696 and 2N706 type devices from Fairchild Semiconductor, a division of Fairchild Camera and Instrument Corporation of Mountain View, Calif. More materials have been promised by the corporation shortly after the academic year begins in the fall, according to professor Robert E. Hale. The SI,OOO grant from the National Science Foundation is to be matched by the college from nonfederal sources to the extent of at least 50 per cent of the direct costs of this project. James C. Howald, professor of chemistry, states that this money will enable the college to meet the new requirement set up by the state of Indiana in which each student must take eight semester hours of physical chemistry in the program of teacher training. The college had previously offered four semester hours in "this area.

Papers Win Right To Criticize Public Officials MARSHALL, Mich. — The Battle Creek Enquirer and News is the victor in a suit challenging the right of *a newspaper to criticize a public official. i Circuit Judge Creighton R. Coleman dismissed a million dollar libel suit against the paper in what is believed to be the first case decided J since the U. S. Supreme Court ruled |on March 9, in favor . of the New ! York Times in a case brought by an I Alabama police official. In that case the court ruled thati public officials must prove that untrue statements in publications were ! made with malice. The suit aaginst the Enquirer and News was filed by three former Battle Creek city commissioners — ' Stanley L, Brock. Raymond M. Tur- > ner, and Jack Wilson, and Com- ' missioner Harry Wilklow, Jr., a- . gainst the publishers of the Enquirer and News: Hobart Chipman. the ed i itor. and an editorial writer. 1 The plaintiffs charged that the i newspaper defamed them in editorials criticizing city liquor policy. The commissioners had approved 1 a liquor license application over the objections of their own liquor committee and the city police. The appli- : cation later was rejected by the state I liquor control commission. Judge Coleman cited the United States Supreme court decision in New York Times vs.' Sullivan. ■ “The New York Times case decided as a matter of thoro constitutional ; law that a public official may not ! recover for a defamatory falsehood relating to his official conduct unless it was proved the statement was made with actual malice, with knowledge it was false, and with reckless disregard to whether it was 1 false not’’. Coleman said. I “The editorial did imply that I plaintiffs discredited themselves and ' did criticize plaintiffs as to their vote ' on the issues in this question. This language, however'. . . is not much evidence of malice, if any. Certainly a newspaper has a right to criticize”. Coleman also quoted from a Mich- ; iagn Supreme court case which said: | “Truth, as a defense, becomes complicated when defamatory publi- : cation consists of statements which 1 are in part statements of fact and in ' part statements of judgment or opI inion. It is said that proof of the ; truth of the factual statements carries with it a privilege to make such ! comments thereon as a reasonable I man might make”. Coleman said that, “except for a [ very minor matter”, the factual assertions of the newspaper were true and that the opinions expressed were reasonable, 12 COUNTY RESIDENTS LOSE DRIVER LICENSES Twelve residents of Kosciusko “bounty have had their drivers license suspended according to the latest report from the Bureau of Motor Vehicles in Indianapolis.
