Show j MILLARD COUNTY CHRONTCLE. DELTA. UTAH " " Tinrrn Show Human Touch THREE DISTINGUISHED states men were on hand to greet the French Gratitude Train when it arrived In Washington Vice Pres ident Barkley and his former col-leagues, Senators Connally of Tex as, Democrat, and Vandenburg ol Michigan, Republican. These three have served in the senate together for more than a quarter of a century. Sometimes they have been on opposite sides of bitter political battles, but have never they let party politics inter-fere with personal friendship. They know each other as well as they know the senate which is better tharv almost anyone else in Wash-ington. How much Senator Vanden-burg knows about the early boy-hood of Senator Connally of Texas is his secret. But at the very conclusion of the ceremonies welcoming the Grati-tude Train, as the venerable Tom Connally took a pair of shears and snipped the red, white and blue rib-bon sealing the District of Colum-bia boxcar, his old friend, the sen-ator from Michigan, whispered to the Vice President of the United States: "I'll bet that's not the first time Tom has broken into a boxcar." Acheson Wary of Bevin It isn't being advertised outside the state department, but British foreign minister Bevin didn't put his best foot forward with the new U. S. Secretary of state just a few days after Dean Acheson took of-fice. Bevin sent what amounted to a frantic SOS to Acheson for help to get him enough votes to squeak by an attempted cen-sure of British foreign policy in the house of commons. But after Acheson helped to get him the votes, Bevin, in effect, bit the hand that fed him. Here is the inside story of what happened: Just before the debate on Pales-tine, Bevin was worried sick that the Labor party might be defeated and have to resign. Part of the criticism was because Britain's policy in Palestine was upsetting American relations. Therefore Bevin hit on the idea of telling par-liament that Britain and the United States had settled their differences and now agreed completly on Palestine. Bevin actually wrote out his re-marks in advance and cabled them to the state department January 25 to make sure Secretary Acheson had no objection. Bevin also ap-pealed to Acheson to issue an Amer-ican statement backing up Bevin on Palestine. The state depart-ment OK'd Bevin's remarks and gave him the and that statement was the trump card which helped him win a vote of confidence by a margin of only 90. Otherwise the Labor govern-ment might have been defeated. However, Bevin extemporaneous-ly inserted some other remarks in his speech, criticizing American pol-icy. This made Acheson so irate he flatly refused to issue the sub-sequent statement on Palestine supporting Bevin. As a matter of fact, Acheson also considered protesting to Bevin about his Amer-ican criticism, but finally decided to forget the wholtT thing. He de-cided, however, that he would think twice before helping Bevin out ol a jam again. Probe Dodgers' Airfield It isn't often the government gets mixed up in e baseball, but for some time the civil aero-nautics authority has been probing the Brooklyn Dodgers' spring train-ing camp at Vero Beach, Florida. Actually, the Dodgers are not in-volved. It's the city of Vero Beach, which the government is interested in, because of a compli-cated transaction by which Vero Beach is suspected of leasing a gov-ernment airfield to the Dodgers at a handsome profit. The airfield is being used by the Dodgers for their training, for an of-ficial charge of $5 per year plus the proceeds from an exhibition game. The airfield is owned by the government and leased to the city of Vero Beach for nothing, with the stipulation that any income is to be used for the airfield's upkeep and improvement. CAA officials now snspecf that a lot more than $5 a year is being paid by the Dodgers for the airfield. What makes them suspicious is a statement by Mayor Merrill P. Barber that the city had "entered into a five-ye- renewable lease with the Brooklyn baseball club at an estimated Income of $12,000 (annually)." Later, city officials began tc search for extra pillows upon whict he Dodgers' heads were to rest a' night. The government supposedl: .vas turning over a certain numbe f pillows with the airfield. An lirport manager Bud Holman, aj lealing for more pillows, corr ilained: "This is really putting u n a bad position, as we have a K ear contract with the Brookl-al- l club which should bring ur rom $20,000 a year upward." Esteron 44 Results In Wild Onion Curbs Wild Garlic also Found Vulnerable to Solution Wild garlic and wild onion long have been two of the most trouble-some weeds in southern lawns, pas-tures and certified grass and grain Iseed production fields. As lawn weeds, these plants give the lawn an uneven, ragged appear-ance and produce a very disagree-able onion odor when mowed. In pastures, dairy cattle feeding on these plants produce milk with an off flavor which is of great concern to dairymen in several states. Seed production has been limited by the presence of wild onions in many fields because of potential contam-ination. During the past three years many experiments have been made with varied forms of 2, to control wild garlic and wild onion. Testi with sodium salt of 2, were un-successful. Esteron 44 and the amine liquid salt formations, how-ever, gave good control when used at the rate of three to four pounds of 2, acid equivalent per acre. Apparently the amount of water used makes little difference in tha results obtained. As many as 123 gallons per acre and a few as five gallons per acre were applied with equal success. For pasture work, observers agree that Esteron 44 may be some-what more effective than the amine salts, but because of the possible danger from volatility of the esters of 2, lt is suggested that the amine liquid salt be used where susceptible plants grow in immedi-ately adjacent areas. (Lawns, for example, with adjacent flowers and shrubs). Lawn Chair Pleases Adults, Tots Alike TF IN NEED of lawn furniture, build it yourself and save money.

Moisture Conservation Helps With Wheat Crop A field that had produced little during the last few years, even with favorable moisture con-ditions, produced a good wheat crop, according to the Kansas state college extension service. "A combination of things made the land productive again," a con-servation district cooperator said. "Use of sweet clover, seeded In the spring of 1946, for green manure and terracing, and contour farming for moisture conservation were im-portant." The land, he explained, was badly eroded. The soil was thin, dense and hard to work. It had not produced a decent crop In the previous six years and was practically idle land. Gullies were plowed shut after the terraces were built, so that the whole field could be contour farmed. In addition, grass waterways were developed and more terraces plan-ned.
