Spring Check-Up Time For Pets LAFAYETTE — As spring and summer days approach, give some thought to your pet’s welfare. Better weather and longer days mean anifhals will be on the move more. Wildlife becomes more active in search of food. And. for many animals it is the mating season. Pets — like cats and dogs — that have been confined to the house or kept close during the winter months will be eager to spend more time out-of-doors. So, Dr. K. M. Weinland. Purdue university extension veterinarian, suggests these spring pet checks: Infectious diseases, such as dog distemper and cat distemper, can be transmitted from animal to animal. You can protect your pet by having it vaccinated against these diseases. Rabies, another infectious disease transmitted from animal to animal and sometimes from animal to human, is also controllable by vaccination of the pet. Check with your local veterinarian annually about immunizing your pet against this disease. o When outside temperatures rise, most dogs and cats <-shed some or all of their winter hair. Usually, normal grooming —- brushing every three or four days — will remove the excess hair. When combing or brushing your pet’s hair, check the animal for external parasites and abnormal skin conditions, says Weinland. If you discover any abnormalities on the skin or in the normal shedding process, have the pet examined by a veterinarian. Your dog or cat may prefer outside housing as the temperature increases. In most cases,’ a pet’s habitat was originally outdoors, so this change should be encouraged. Provide the animal with a house of its own outdoors or with a place in the garage. This will also eliminate some household cleaning as the animal sheds. It is well that a pet have a fenced-in area of its own or be trained to be tied outdoors. Pets should not be allowed to run loose. Dogs and cats especially have a tendency to stray, and sometimes valuable pets become lost or stolen. If your pet becomes lost, check with the local humane shelter. In most communities, this is the place where strayed or lost animals are taken. Local veterinarians and law enforcement authorities are other sources to check for information about lost pets. If you have questions about the health conditions of your pet. talk with a veterinarian before applying medications or treatments. Crabgrass Prevention Easily Achieved LAFAYETTE — One application will prevent crabgrass for a full season! So read the advertisement. Repeatedly, this has proved true in research, says W. H. Daniel. Purdue university extension turf specialist. Today, lawn owners may select either Bet a san. Da ethal. Balan, Bandane, Siduron or Azak as the active ingredient to short stop germinating crabgrass. Often these are additives in fertilizer or as granules for dry application by homeowners or custom applicators. Some liquid formulations for hose applicator or sprayer are widely distributed. If your lawn is bothered by crabgrass, Daniel suggests — let good, desired grass start to grow before applying control. Mow at least once before the application. — Measure and calculate your area so that the product is correctly used, and — Go over the area uniformly and repeatedly until known product is on known area at recommended concentration . . . no more or no less. A better, more uniform and dense turf, without the scourge of crabgrass, can be yours this year if these recommendations are followed In these days of environmental concern, do it right, urges Daniel. Good lawns are needed more than ever

Propose Plans For Meaningful Reform Os Military Justice System

WASHINGTON. D. C. — A few weeks ago I introduced a bill which I believe is one of the most comprehensive — and at the same time realistic and workable — plans ever proposed for the meaningful reform of our military justice system. Most of us have some connection with the Armed Forces. Either we ourselves have been in the service, or we have a loved one or a friend who has been, or is now, or will be in the future. Thus we all have a reason to be concerned about the sort of justice provided our men and women in the Armed Forces. The main thrust of the bill I have introduced is an attempt to eliminate completely the most serious shortcoming in the military’ justice system today: the possibility — or even the appearance — that the commanding officer of an accused man. could somehow affect the outcome of his court-martial. All parts of the Uniform Code of Military Justice dealing with court-martial, from the moment of arrest to the final disposition of appeals and the completion of confinement, would be revised in line with this goal. An accused man’s commander holds an extraordinary degree of control over his court-martial. He controls the court-martial procedure, and plays an integral role in the appellate process. He authorizes searches and arrests, convenes the court-martial, and decides whether the accused serviceman shall remain in pretrial confinement. He chooses the prosecuting attorney and, in some instances., the defense counsel. Finally, he chooses the men to serve as members of a court, reviews the findings and sentence, and decides whether a sentence to confinement shall be deferred pending appeal. Clearly, as long as these very real possibilities of undue command influence are part of our military justice system, we will never be able to avoid the implication — or at the very least the appearance —of fundamental unfairness. Military commanders should not be concerned that the more equitable system of justice created by my proposed legislation will serve to undercut the discipline which we all recognize as necessary to an effective armed force. A reformed system of court-martial would continue to be operated within the framework of militarycommand, and individual commanding officers would retain the power to punish minor infractions. If anything, moreover, my bill should increase discipline in the Armed Forces. Experience has taught us that inequitable laws spawn disrespect for the law. and disrespect in turn eventually leads to disobedience. My bill will. I believe, increase respect and obedience of the law. Specifically, my bill is an extended and revised version of the bill I introduced late in the 91st Congress. After introduction. I sent copies of the bill to a number of military and civilian experts specializing in military law? I received a wide range of comments. all of them constructive, and many of which I took into consideration in making a series of improvements in the bill. My new bill contains two major changes from the earlier proposal. First, it would eliminate the much-criticized summary coyrt-martial —a proceeding conducted by one man who presents the evidence for the prosecution, listens to and evaluates the evidence of the

defendant, rules on questions of law and fact, and also determines the sentence. Giving such powers » to only one person is clearly inconsistent with American ideas of justice. Second, the bill contains a new ' section defining each party’s rights to discover information held by the other in the course of a court-martial. Such a provision is essential to any system which attempts to provide fair, trials. As far as the bill as a whole is concerned, it would establish an independent Courts-Martial Command, ‘removed from the influence of individual commanding officers and concerned only with the fair administration of the system of military justice. Each accused would be entitled to have an independent defense counsel appointed upon request immediately following arrest. He would also have the right to a formal hearing in front of an independent military judge within 24 hours of arrest. Thus, the commander would no longer have the final voice in deciding whether to prosecute. Several crucial decisions now made by the commanding officer or the prosecutor would be delegated to the independent military judges in the new Courts-Martial Command: the power to authorize searches, to issue arrest warrants, to release. an accused serviceman pending trial or pending appeal, and to suspend or reduce sentences upon review of a case. At the present time, the commander has exclusive power to choose members of-the court — the jurors. This widely criticized power would be eliminated and a completely random system of selection would be substituted in its place. The bill would also abolish the requirement that twothirds of the members of the court-martial be officers, in line with the American tenet that an accused person should be judged by a jury of his peers. Such reforms, I believe, are essential to the continued vitality of the military justice system. There are now nearly four million men and women under " arms. Most of them are young and impressionable, and some will be confronted with American justice for the first time while serving in the Armed Forces. If we are to preserve the integrity of our civilian system of justice, we must see to it that these citizens return to civilian life with a view of criminal justice that recognizes the fundamental principles of fairness and human dignity. We must see to it that no men or women are convicted and confined, their lives perhaps ruined, without having been accorded the full procedural and substantive safeguards due them as Americans. ?
