The test will see the greatest mo- bilization of auxiliary policemen since the beginning of modern civil defense, Thomas S. Dignan, acting state director, said yesterday. “Our last public participation exercise on December 7 produced spotty results. The fact that it was not a total suc- cess is attributed to the lack of aux- iliary policemen on duty, inclement weather conditions that disabled many sirens and non-adherence to CD signals." Dignan, in a recent directive, re- emphasized that . . willful viola- tors of civil defense regulations will be subject to arrest” under the con- ditions of the Disorderly Conduct code. He said despite the intensive public education program aimed at teaching the meaning of the two CD signals, most people have failed to commit them to memory. Through his local directors, Dig- nan has asked all industry to co- operate by sounding their factory whistles and horns to supplement CD and voluntary fire sirens.

Public to Take Cover in State Defense Test

CD Director Says Violators of Rules Can Be Arrested

Wins Bird Title

‘‘Operation Spring,” a civil defense exercise to be held on Saturday, March 26, will require New Jersey’s population to take cover for 15 min­utes, the state office of civil defense disclosed yesterday.

The test will see the greatest mo­bilization of auxiliary policemen since the beginning of modern civil defense, Thomas S. Dignan, acting state director, said yesterday. “Our last public participation exercise on December 7 produced spotty results. The fact that it was not a total suc­cess is attributed to the lack of aux­iliary policemen on duty, inclement weather conditions that disabled many sirens and non-adherence to CD signals."

Dignan, in a recent directive, re­emphasized that . . willful viola­tors of civil defense regulations will be subject to arrest” under the con­ditions of the Disorderly Conduct code. He said despite the intensive public education program aimed at teaching the meaning of the two CD signals, most people have failed to commit them to memory.

Through his local directors, Dig­nan has asked all industry to co­operate by sounding their factory whistles and horns to supplement CD and voluntary fire sirens.

fashionable, thc division distributed 43,000 low number plates at no cost.

But in the future, state motor ve­hicle officials emphasize a car bear­ing low number plates will be a sure indication that it is owned and prob­ably being operated by one of the best drivers in the state. Such tags will definitely display the careful motorist, it is claimed.

Under the present system, as out­lined by a 1959 statute, a motorist desiring a special low-numbered tag, writes to his state senator. If the senator approves, the driver is mail­ed an application to fill out showing the date of his birth and other per­tinent information and it mailed back to the Division of Motor Ve­hicles.

The application is checked with the State Police Bureau of Identifi­cation and a driver record check is also made in the files of the motor vehicle division. If he had more than one conviction in the past year,

WASHINGTON RODEOLast year’s “Battle to Balance the

Budget” in Congress this year may turn into a Washington, D.C., style fiscal rodeo in which the main ob­jective is to harness wild Congres­sional spending now escaping normal controls of the traditional appropri­ations process.

This was pointed out by the New Jersey Taxpayers Association today in noting that, although the Federal Government’s 80-billion-dollar-a-year spending pace continues to confound citizen understanding, wider public attention is being focused upon “backdoor spending” methods em­ployed in Congress to avoid the wringers of the Appropriations Com­mittees.

One of its short-range objectives is to become a citizen force capable of defeating the aims of Communism. In its first year of existence, with­out publicity or organized promo­tion, its growth has been remarkable —and heartening. Any American who loves freedom and is willing to work, work, work to protect it can find intelligent direction and com­panionship in a John Birch Society group.

It is a unique movement. Its founder is Robert Welch, nationally- known Massachusetts industrialist. Fifteen months ago , having already given up his business responsibilities to devote his full time to the move­ment, he invited 11 prominent Amer­ican leaders to a meeting in Indian­apolis. For two days lie presented the shocking iacts-ol-life in our

I world today. Then he outlined the [plan for the movement he was | founding. His goal, lie told them, was a working John Birch group in every American community. Only people, dedicated and working at the task could protect freedom and

Introduction of new equipment has been costly with high break-in costs for new turboprop and jet planes. Operating costs have risen sharply without compensating in­creases in tare being allowed by the C.A.B.

More recently, prior to the end of the year, airline stocks were subjected to heavy tax selling. Even still more recently, a rash of commercial airline accidents have dampened Investor enthusiasm for this group.

There is still some bad news to come out as first quarter earnings for 1960 and in some cases later earnings reports will be disap­pointing. These are primarily due to the high cost of transition from conventional airplanes to turbo­prop and turbojets. With these poor earnings, reports, however, the final wave of had news should have come out and prospects might be somewhat brighter in the future.

The market place is now well aware ot the difficulties that have been facing the airlines and the writer feels that the prices of these stocks have discounted most Of these difficulties. On the other hand, there are some Tavorable aspects ahead and even in the last few days airline stocks have started to anticipale this. The new Jet and turboprop planes are attracting more passenger traffic as I hey cut Hying time between cities and consequently load fac­tors are Increasing which could lead to Wider prollt margins In

spite of higher operating costs. The C.A.B. is taking a more favor­able view toward higher fares, especially for overseas passenger traffic and for jet plane?.

President Eisenhower recently indicated that a larger amount of military business now given the Military Air Transport Service might be transferred to commer­cial airlines while at the same time arrangements might be made so that defense and industry would participate jointly in developing long range turbine-power cargo aircraft. Both airline passenger traffic and cargo traffic are in* creasing.

The principal threat at the pres­ent time is that airlines will over­expand their equipment in I960 and as a result load factor per­centages would drop sharply.

Airlines which have been earli­est in obtaining the new turbo­prop and jet planes obviously have tiie advantage as more of their break-in costs have been written off and it is these which we favor.

Airline stocks are not yet suf­ficiently seasoned to qualify for more conservative investment portfolios, but for the investor with well diversified holdings will* ing to assume a businessman's lisk, the writer feels that thla group has unusually good oppor* tunitles for substantial capital appreciation over tha next »i* months or longer. Hla favorite* in order are: American Airlines, Pan American Airwave, Eastern Ain lines and Delta Airlines. HU

The State of New Jersey is prac-j ticing what it preaches to promote! safety and reduce the toll of high-, way deaths and accidents. The State; Department of Institutions and! Agencies recently adopted a policy1 requiring all drivers involved in two accidents within six months or three : accidents within a year to have driv-i ing habits analyzed by taking the j driver’s examination in the Accident! Clinic conducted by the State Divi-j sion of Motor Vehicles.

Several other state departments! are also taking advantage of the op­portunity to have the driving habits! of drivers who have been involved in accidents scientifically scanned at the clinic. Colonel James A. Sher-j wood, assistant director of motor vehicles, has notified all departments ; he will be pleased to cooperate with j agencies requesting this service.

The State Department of Defense : has a very active and efficient acci­dent review board which meets reg­ularly and reviews all accidents in­volving vehicles assigned to the d e -! partrnent.

All passenger vehicles purchased! by the State Department of Health! in the future will be equipped with]

Iseat belts. These belts are also used, by motor vehicle patrol vehicles and! on the cars being purchased for the! State Police.

The association points out parent- teacher groups have 454,270 mem­bers; there are 43,500 teachers and other school employees; local school boards have 4,321 individual mem­bers and there are 450 school admin-!

Fish in Jersey Lakes Tabbed Best Education

Fish in New Jersey’s lakeSf and streams though definitely “low­brows” are at the same time the “best educated” in the nation.

Dr. James R. Westman of Rutgers tells why fish bite and why they don’t in the compendium of New Jersey fish laws, which includes the 1960 fish code and is being distrib­uted by the State Division of Fish and Game.

“Fish cannot read law books,” says Dr. Westman. “In fact they are rather stupid creatures, with brains that resemble stickpins and with practically no foreheads. The fish Is definitely a lowbrow.

“Yet fish can 'learn' (become con­ditioned) from experience—some of them quite rapidly and well. The largemouth bass, for instance, is a ipecies that can learn its lessons quickly and ‘remember’ them for a long time—perhaps years. The re- inlt ? Largemouths can become al­most immune to capture.

“Rainbow and brown trout—par­ticularly the latter—also belong near the top of the class. Unfortunately, however, hatchery experiences equip these fish with a rather naive out­look on life and most are apt to suc­cumb rather quickly when stocked into the realities of the cruel world. But many do survive in some of our better trout streams and are there all year for the skilled angler to challenge in season.

“Other fish such as pickerel, cat­fish and brook trout, while not ex­actly dunces, do not take to higher learning in the same manner as j largemouths, browns and rainbows.”

But despite the criticism of the1 intelligence of fish, Dr. Westman admits New Jersey may have the most educated fish of any state in the Union.

“More than a hundred thousand anglers fish the limited acreage of New Jersey’s public waters over and over again. Is it small wonder, then, that largemouth bass, rainbow and brown trout quickly become prac iicaTIy invulnerable to the Techniques and presentations of the average1 angler?” asks Dr. Westman.

More than 50 professional speed­sters will help usher in the 1960 auto racing season at Central Jer­sey’s Old Bridge Stadium with a special practice session Sunday af­ternoon, April 3 on the stadium's paved half-mile oval.

The policy of preceding the actual speedway calendar with two practice dates is years old and will be con­tinued this season on both April 3 and 10.

Whereas the inaugural program on April 24 will feature stock car competition, the two pre-season dates will highlight practically ev­ery conceivable type of race car. In­cluded will be the TQ midgets, full- size midgets, the larger sprint cars, sportsman, modified, novice and the late model stock cars and others.

Every type will come in for prop­er booking during the six-month­long schedule that gets underway soon. Variety programs among the 40 lined up by general manager Nat Kleinfield will embrace the many different types of racing equipment.

An open house policy will be in effect for the first two dates—3rd and 10th—with the public invited to find seats in the big grandstand and enjoy the motor tests.

All youth groups, such as the PAL, Boy and Girl Scouts and simi lar non-profit organizations are in­vited to write to Kleinfield at the stadium so that arrangement's can be made for the youngsters to at­tend future programs without charge.

Residence Sale Subject To Special Tax Rules

The sale of a personal residence is subject to special Federal income tax return rules, Chris L. Gross, di­rector of Internal Revenue for Cam­den District, reminded local taxpay­ers today.

The general rule, he expained, is that any profit from the sale of your home, or any other personally owned item of property such as an automobile, furniture, securities or real estate is subject to tax.

On the other hand, Mr. Gross

The storm fell with a heavy thud on early summer pea pickers who come all unstrung when they can’t plant their peas on St. Patrick's Day.

But now that the indoor garden­ing season has been extended, how about taking a long look ahead to your tomato crop? All too often gardeners write in during the to­mato season saying something like- “What happened? My plans grew fine until the lower leaves began to turn yellow, and just when I was about ready to pick tomatoes, the plants just died.”

Pmraotion B u t CureIf you have had this happen to

you and if you have been planting your tomatoes in the same place year after year, your soil may have a fungus that causes the wilt disease

That’s the word from Dr. Spencer H. Davis, plant disease specialist He says the only remedy is preven- tion.

To guard against wilt you have to plant a wilt resistant tomato, and this is an appropriate time to bring the subject up because you may have to start your own plants.

You may be disappointed if you wait until it’s time to set out plants and then go to a plant market or greenhouse and ask for a wilt-resist­ant variety.

you may not start to pick as early as you’d like to.

“The sales proceeds are computed by deducting any sales commissions and any expense of redecorating and fixing-up the property for sale. The work of redecorating and fixing-up must be performed within the 90- day period before the house is sold and must be paid within 30 days af-iall the difference ter the date of the sale.” !

Nixon Holds Good Lead In ‘Trial Heat' Election| By Ku m A Fink, Director,| Princeton Rnconrck Srrrin*I Princeton —If a presidential elec­tion were being held in the state to­day and Vice President Nixon were the Republican candidate and Gov­ernor Adlai Stevenson were the Democratic candidate, Richard Nix­on would win—but not by as big a margin as he would have just 10 weeks ago.

These were the findings when trained, experienced New Jersey Poll itaff reporters working out of Princeton put the following question in face to face interviews to a cross- lection of 1,000 of the state s adult citizens ;

“Suppose the presidential elections per cent.

were being held today. If Adlai Ste­venson were the Democratic candi­date and Richard Nixon were the Republican candidate, which one would you like to see win ?”

The statewide results:Nixon 57.6%Stevenson 41.5Undecided -9

Ten weeks ago, the findings on the same question showed 'Nixon with 62 per cent, Stevenson with 36 per cent and the undecided vote at 2 per cent.

In other words over the past 10 weeks Nixon's lead has dropped 4.4 per cent, whereas Stevenson has registered a 5.5 per cent jump and the undecided vote has dropped 1.1

Q. What is the correct way to go about getting your social security record checked ?

A. Stop or phone in at your local social security office, 437 E. State street, Trenton and ask for the card titled “Wage Statement Request.” Complete the card by placing on it your social security number, your date of birth and your name and ad­dress. Do not forget to sign the card where indicated. Your social security account is held strictly con­fidential and no information from it can be given out to anyone except yourself. The card is already ad­dressed. Mail it in and in a few

idays you will receive from the Social I Security Administration a slip show­ling your total accredited earnings ! since 1937 and 1951 as well as yearly total for the last four years.

Q. When I made my social secu­rity application for retirment bene­fits, the man at the social security office said I had to make some sort of report after January 1960. I stopped working in November 1959, and I'm way over 65. I forgot what report he meant. Can you tell me what it is?

A. The social security representa­tive was referring to an annual re­port of earnings. If your total earn­ings in 1959 exceeded $1200 this re­port is made in order for the Social Security Administration to deter­mine if you have received all checks to which you were entitled in 1959. A person is subject to loss of one or

I more social security checks if his £ earnings exceed $1200 a year. An S annual report shows the e^ ct E amount of earnings. From this can

annual report form.Q. In 1959, my buddy started a

small business selling wooden toys. He does pretty well at it. I told him that I thought he had to pay social security tax on his earnings from his business, but how does he go about it?

A. As a self-employed business man, your friend files a Schedule of Profit and Loss from Business or Profession, commonly called Sched­ule C, with his regular income tax return. Copies of this Schedule C can be obtained from any Internal Revenue District Office. On the Schedule C, he shows his total in come from the business, his business expenses and his net income. If his net income is $400 or more, he pays the social security tax of 4J4% with his income tax payment.

Q. Let's say my average monthly wage was $200. How much would my wife, 3 children age 3, 2 and 1 and 1 receive if I became disabled ?

A. You would receive $84 a month and an additional $77.60 could be di­vided equally among your wife and children. They would each receive $19.40 a month.

Q. If I file for a benefit because of disability, is it less than it would be if I were age 65?

A. No, the same method of figur­ing your benefit is used when you qualify for a disability payment as would be used if you were age 65.

There’s no trick to getting away early on washday to do more interesting things. You simply set the dial on an automatic electric dryer and forget about the time wasted lugging heavy wash baskets, pinning things up on the line and taking them down. Your wash is gently tumble-dried in dirt-free, electrically heated air, comes out cleaner and fluffier than if it had been dried outside. No more weather worries to throw you off schedule, either, An electric dryer is easier on you and your wash.

Around Our F a rm s ___More Potash on Alfalfa

Because of the high potash need of alfalfa, the rate and ratio of fer­tilizer recommended tor this crop has been changed this year.

Tests and experience now suggest the need of 750 to 1,000 pounds of an 0-9-27 fertilizer an acre, or an equiv­

alent amount of a different grade with the same ratio.

If the phosphorus level in the soil is high, an application of 350 to 450 pounds of muriate of potash will be adequate. The recommendation for fertilizing at seeding time remains at 50 to 1,000 pounds of 5-10-10 an

i acre.1 A ton of alfalfa removes about 50 | pounds of potash a year. This means | that a 4-ton crop removes 200 j pounds of potash an acre.■ Anyone who wants to continue to produce high yields of alfalfa must ; return potash to the soil to replace | the potash removed by the crop.I Get a soil test to determine what the alfalfa needs in the case of a

' seeding or maintenance application.Topdressings with fertilizer can

be applied in spring, summer or fall. Higher total yields for the season can be expected from the early spring treatment, especially on soils low in potash.

Split applications won’t increase yields much.

Fall Seeded Lawns Hurt| The lack of snow cover until late winter, together with considerable

'frost action has pulled grass out of the ground, especially on late seed­ed lawns and those on heavy soils,

i If you seeded your lawn last fall you had better look for injury.

! If grass is loose so that it lifts up from the soil enough to show its roots, you have an example of what

'frost action does.

j to grow again when warm [sets in. But if they’re all brown, | they won’t come back.I if after looking at your lawn you !are convinced that injury is prom­inent and extensive, you had better I broadcast seed on the surface at a rate of 2 pounds to 1,000 square feet or less, depending on the seriousness of the injury. Ls the same mixture that you plant last fall. You don’t have to rake to cover the seed— natural frost action will take care of it.

Small injured areas, maybe an inch square, don't have to be seeded. They will fill in later.

Finally, fertilize your lawn early, using 10 pounds of 10-6-4 or similar grade fertilizer to 1,000 square feet of lawn.

Termite or Flying Ant?When warm spring weather ar­

rives the winged reproductive forms of ants and termites move from their colonies in great numbers.

Don’t become overly alarmed ii you find some of these winged in­sects in your home. These winged insects may be the harmless repro­

ductive form of ants or they may be the reproductive stage of the wood­damaging eastern subterranean ter­mite.

To determine whether you have ants or termites see if the insect has a wasp-like body with a thin “waist" between the abdomen and the rest of the body, i f the "waist" is pres­ent you have an ant.

The abdomen of the termite is joined broadly to the rest of its body and no “waist” is present.

Ants and termites also ditlcr in their wings as the hind wings oi the ant are smaller than its forewings and the wings have only a few veins. Both pairs of wings of the termite are about the same size arid have many veins.

Automatic Feeder TrickBirds that are on an all-mash diet

and at a high rate of lay should be watched closely to determine wheth­er they are maintaining body weight.

Quite frequently body weight may drop, followed by a drop in produc­tion. When this occurs, it is diffi­cult to regain this weight and pro­duction loss.

To avoid this .some poultrymen supplement their feeding program with either pellets or grain to the amount of 3 to 4 pounds for 100 birds. But one trouble with this, when automatic feeders are used, is that birds close to the feed room get most of the supplement.

The way to handle this problem is to run the supplement through i the automatic feeder at night when j the birds are on the roost, suggests John Bezpa, extension poultry spe-1 cialist at Rutgers University.

At daybreak, or when the lights are turned on, all birds will then have an equal opportunity to get j their share of the supplement.

Attack from above—A converted F7F bomber dumps 700 gallons of fire retarding borate slurry on a rapidly spreading forest fire. New methods of combating forest fires have helped enormously but pre­vention is still the best way to reduce the terrific loss each year in priceless forest resources. Nine out of every ten forest fires are man-caused, largely through carelessness, and can be prevented. This message sponsored by:

Useful things, matches but deadly. Just one dropped carelessly while still glowing, can start a rampaging forest (ire.

Loss of Jife . . . loss of irreplaceable timber, range and grazing lands------ loss of vacation areas and wildlife- allthis from a dropped match, or cigarette.

During these fire hazard months, a match is especially deadly. And every year our forests become ever more vital to the national welfare.

So be doubly careful this year. Crush smokes . . . be sure matches and all fires are out.
