Show THE BULLETIN, BINGHAM CANYON, UTAH : THE READER'S DATE BOOK Clean-U- p Time Is Here Again For the Nation's Home Towns Although weather conditions determine the dates for observ-ance of Spring Clean-U- p in various parts of the country, now is the time for the home town to plan its campaign. Home towns lo-cated in the south and southwest will probably hold campaigns in March and if in the north probably by April. Whatever its location, however, every home town will find it advantageous to sponsor a Clean-U- p Week as a fire and disease prevention measure. In addition, a clean and attractive communi-ty will bring the town business and prosperity. nuouisn sdoui a nome or Dusmess and preventable fire go hand-to-han- Your chances of having your fire department pay you a visit are in direct proportion to the amount of rubbish you a'.- -, - I low. Rubbish miy " not be a cause of MAIN fire ln itseU' but !t suppUes the fuel for STREET a carelessly dis- - ) carded match, areUe or tray spark. Rubbish is not just waste paper and .dirt as so many people assume. It is anything worthless or value-less. This means that Uncle Josh's buffalo robe in the garage, that broken down sofa ln the attic, or sisters' outgrown clothes ln the back ball closet are rubbish. The National Fire Protection As-sociation says that Americans prob-ably keep more rubbish than any country in the world. There's two reasons for this rubbish record: First, national procrastination the "I'll take care of the trash barrels tomorrow" philosophy. Second, we have a lopsided sense of thrift We are a nation of string-saver- s and trivia collectors. We hate to throw anything away. We "hang on to things" like Aunt Ermintrude's moth-eate- n muff and three legged furniture in the vain hope "that we may be able to use them sometime." Here is a quiz the association has prepared to test how you stack up as a housekeeper. Do you regularly dispose of rub-bish? Are walls, floors, ceilings protect-ed from overheated stoves, pipes or furnaces? Are ashes kept in covered metal barrels? Do you have any frayed cords or defective electrical appliances? Are all your fuses the proper sizes (usually 15 amperes)? Are all dust mops hung up and oily rags kept in metal containers? Does the whole family know how to call the fire department? Do you have gasoline or other dangerous flammable cleaning fluids in the house? Do you have plenty of ash trays in the house? Do stovepipes pass through com-bustible partitions or through attics or closets? Are chimneys in good repair and cleaned once a year? Do you have screens for all fire-places? Do you have a firesafe roof, such as asphalt, slate or tile? Are matches kept in tins away from heat and small children? Are curtains or other combustibles near enough to stoves to catch fire? This quiz was prepared for the householder, but it could be applied by the local merchant to his busi-ness. Adequate fire protection is good business for any home town mer-chant. And one of the best ways of achieving this protection is by a clean-u- p campaign. Besides elimi-nating possible fire hazards on his own property, the merchant next door may eliminate some that are a danger to both concerns. And it is well to remember, a clean town is a healthy town; a healthy town is a prosperous town. e International Trade Fair Set for March The second Chicago International Trade Fair is scheduled for March 22 to April 6 at Navy pier, Chicago.

The utter disregard for these rights, the brow-beatin- g of witnesses, the star-chamb- er ses-sions without reference to any rules or the justice of jurisprudence has become scandalous. It remains, however, for a fresh-man senator to really rebel at the tactics used in these probes and ad-minister a verbal lashing to his col-leagues in the United States senate. He is Sen. Herman Welker of Idaho, a member of a senate crime investi-gating committee, elected for his first term In 1950. Senator Welker was particularly incensed at the use of radio and tele-vision which has made a spectacle of many of these senatorial inquisi-tions. In a television forum spon-sored by Georgetown University he charged that these probe commit-tees have no rules of evidence, no rules of demeanor and could brow-beat a witness and' force him to testi-fy about something he would not like to mention; that the committees are not governed by any sacred rules of law, admit hearsay evidence and conclusions; that the witness is subject to the whims of the men con-ducting the investigation and that such tactics Invade the constitution-al rights and the right of privacy of the witness. He further declared that radio and television broadcasts were ' using the testimony of the wit-- nessea In the hearings In com-mercial enterprises and for com-mercial purposes, certainly a violation of the Individual's rights and for which the wit-nesses are uncompensated. Said Senator Welker: ". . . here an unfortunate individual that some of our detectives or investigators want to bring before us have never perhaps seen a United States sen-ator before. They are racked up be-fore us, before these cameras and microphones and the august body of senators presiding, and they are nervous and it affects them, and by one slip of the tongue, they may be-come guilty of perjury, they might incriminate themselves, or they may find themselves in contempt of the body investigating them". Continuing, the gentleman from iuaiiu oaiu. ... " v. u..... v.. a good show, dealing with morbid curiosity of the people who like to witness these "people before con-gressional hearings where we liter-ally put the heat upon them ... I iayi there has been too much mug-ging on the part of many senators who have enjoyed this limelight of being on the television and before the radio audience, and I say it is about time to get back to funda-mental justice, and decency and get some courtroom judicial demeanor into this matter." Harold Ickes In the recent passing of Harold L. Ickes from the Washington scene, death has stilled one of the most powerful voices in the nation's capi-tal against the persistent efforts by large special interests to grab the nation's natural resources. During his more than 13 years as secretary of the interior the "old curmudgeon" had his sights raised above the petty chiselers in and out of government in a continuing fight to preserve the country's public lands, to preserve the natural re-sources in water and electric power, and to keep for the people general-ly the untold millions in wealth of the nation's tidelands. But even as he lay upon his death-be- d the big oil companies , which he had held at bay, with the aid of a presidential veto and two supreme court decis-ions, were moving In again. Settlement of this dispute, under the guise of states' rights, will be one of the major issues in this cam-paign. In two decisions, ln 1947 and in 1950, the supreme court has held that coastal states have jurisdiction over submerged lands in bays, riv-ers and Inlets and along the coast from high to the low-tid- e mark, but that farther out to the continental shelf, these submerged lands belong to all the people of all the states. California, Louisiana, Texas and Florida have joined with the oil lobby in an effort to wrest this bon-anza oil reserve from federal juris-diction. There is now up in the sen-ate a compromise bill, which is merely an entering wedge, which would give royalties from oil pro-duced from these tidelands to the public school system. Grain Investigation Secretary of Agriculture Brannan is urging the senate agricultural committee to call as witnesses op-erators of warehouses from which government stored grain has disap-peared . . . What movies have to do with price controls may be nothing, but the President went to the Nation-al Motion Pictures Association to get Eric Johnston and now he has gone to the Independent Motion Picture Producers Association to get Ellis Arnall to succeed Mike DiSalle.

EASTER SEAL GIRL Four-Year-O- ld Doris Desrosiers Is Easter Seal Girl for 1952 y ftt.,A. .... .. ffi The 1952 Easter Seal girl is Doris Desrosiers, a tiny, doll-lik- e creature with sparkling brown eyes and soft curly hair. The daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Gi-lbert Desrosiers of Nashua, N.H., she is a bright youngster, quick with her hands and as alert to her surroundings as any healthy, happy four-yea- r old, who typifies the thou-sands of crippled children receiving care and training ln Easter Seal centers. She will make her appear-ance in newspapers, magazines and on television nationwide during the campaign, March 13 to April 13. When Doris' face lights up in a frequent smile. It's easy to see why she is the favorite patient at the Manchester, N.H. rehabilitation cen-ter where she goes for treatment two or three times a week. Although she is four, Doris is just learning how to walk, because she was born cerebral palsied. Doris grew as any normal baby but when she was a year old, she had little control over her legs, and Mrs. Desrosiers realized that her daughter wasn't going to walk. Consultations with pediatricians and orthopedists proved that Doris' brain was injured before or after birth, causing the neuro-muscul-condition known as cerebral palsy. Fortunately, only that part of her brain which controls her legs ap-pears to be injured. Some children with cerebral palsy are not so lucky. The orthopedist prescribed night braces for Doris to train her muscles while she was sleeping. In addition, he referred her to the rehabilitation center, operated ln Manchester by the New Hampshire Society for Crippled Children and Handicapped Persons and financed mainly through Easter Seal funds. The center is one of hundreds operated by affiliated societies of the National Society for Crippled Children and Adults. Doris' treatment began in June, 1949, when she was a year and a half old. Her parents now bring her into the Manchester center two or three times a week, where she receives physical therapy to strengthen her muscles. Later she may need other treatment, includ-ing speech therapy and occupation-al therapy. Both will be available there. In this exclusive Western Newspaper Union photograph, four-ye- ar old Doris Desrosiers trys to help her daddy mow the lawn In the backyard of their home in Nashua, N.H. She typifies thousands of crippled children receiving treatment and training at Easter Seal centers throughout the nation. About a year ago, when Doris was three and a half, she first walked alone. Today, thanks to the early treatment and care she has received, she can take a few falter-ing steps. Therapists at the center hope that she will be able to start in a regular school when she Is six. If not, she can go to school at home, through a New Hampshire state education homebound teach-ing program, which was originally sponsored by the Easter Seal Society to provide education for youngsters who would otherwise go without. Although medical science does not yet know a cure for cerebral palsy, improvement is now possible in the majority of cases. If Doris Desro-siers had lived only a decade ago, she would have been doomed to her home, a helpless cripple. Today, however, she stands as a symbol of what can be done when proper care Is provided for crippled children when people care enough to give them the treatment they need. Doris progress is slow, but she's getting there. She has a long way to go. She and thousands like her are counting on Easter Seals to help them become the healthy, in-dependent men end women they want to be. ''' in Vi v ' 1 I' ,)' , I ? .- -' , . . . , Vww5; i GERONIMO . .
