Despite the rapid urbanization of the Garden State, the New Jersey Department of Agriculture reports that about 25 townships contain more cows than people. The report is based on the preliminary 1960 cen- sus count (for humans) and current records of the department’s Division of Animal Industry (for cows). As might be expected ,the numeri- cal advantage of cattle is most ap- parent in Sussex and Warren coun- ties, the state’s most important dairy centers. Take Wantage Township in Sussex County, where there are al- most three times as many dairy cows, beef cattle and assorted young bovine fry, as there are men, women and children. Fredon Township has 806 people, County townships where a like situ ation prevails are Hampton, Hardy- ston, Lafayette and Vernon. In Warren County, the cattle pop- ulation exceeds the census count of people in at least nine townships: Allamuchy, Belvidere, Blairstown, Frelinghuysen, Hardwick, Harmony, Hope, Knowlton and White. Even in some of the less rural counties, isolated townships boast more bovine s than humans. In Plainsboro there are 2,375 cattle but only 1,170 people. Other townships where Bossy still reigns supreme include Lumberton and Springfield in Burlington Coun- ty, Stow Creek in Cumberland, South Harrison in Gloucester, Bethlehem in Hunterdon and Mannington, Pilesgrove and Upper Pittsgrovc in Salem.

Fucarino resigned to devote him- self to full-time teaching in the 6th grade at the Stockton Street School. To Investigate Charge of Bias Monroe Township.—A five man committee appointed by Mayor Ed- ward Szczepanik will investigate a charge of alleged racial bias against the township’s new welfare director, Mrs. Helen Fecskovics. The charge was made during a Township Committee meeting last week by Mrs. Grace Massey, a spec- tator, who accused Mrs. Fecskovics of making a statement several years ago belittling Negroes. Mrs. Fecskovics was appointed to the post director of welfare and overseer of the poor for a tempo- rary, three month term, to succeed! Mrs. Anna England. Her appoint-j ment was made by the Local Assist-! ance Board, headed by George H Baker. The selection of the investigation committee, named at a special ses sion called by the mayor was scored by over a dozen persons led by Mrs. Massey. Heading the committee is Eugene Jansak. Members are William Day, Frederick Young, Jan Grabowski and Mrs. Georgianne Nero. Mrs. Nero is a Negro. The mayor has asked completion of the investigation in three weeks. The New Jersey Turnpike Au- thority, in a letter to charter bus operators, expresses its deep con- cern “by repeated instances of dan- ger and serious inconvenience to passengers” resulting from mechan- ical breakdowns of such vehicles' while traveling on the Turnpike. W. W. Wanamaker, executive di- rector of the Authority, states that in each of the three most recent cases, failure of owners to take ef- fective action resulted in delays of nearly four hours, “ causing wholly unwarranted extension of exposure to danger and distressing perional inconvenience to passengers.

Funeral services were held Tues The potato harvest is only being conducted on a small scale and largely for local markets, the New Jersey Stale Employment Service reported over the weekend. It stated that low prices have been preventing any concerted effort on the part of growers to dig. Rainfall over the area has been uneven and varied from .10 to 2.43 inches, but in general the potato growers got enough rain to halt irrigation, the NJSES said. The blueberry crop is the main one currently as far as labor re- quirements are concerned. There are about 2,900 pickers on the ber- ries in Monmouth, Ocean and Bur- lington counties. The corn harvest in the Burlington County area is expected to hit a peak the end of the week. There are job openings for coup- les and singles to live-in at all area NJSES offices. Mercer Co.

Ihere are still some places in 12,143 cattle. Green Township's hu- New Jersey where the bovine popu- man population totals 837 while thelation outnumbers the human resi-!cattle count is 1,786. Other Susdents of the area.

Despite the rapid urbanization of the Garden State, the New Jersey Department of Agriculture reports that about 25 townships contain more cows than people. The report is based on the preliminary 1960 cen­sus count (for humans) and current records of the department’s Division of Animal Industry (for cows).

As might be expected ,the numeri­cal advantage of cattle is most ap­parent in Sussex and Warren coun­ties, the state’s most important dairy centers. Take Wantage Township in Sussex County, where there are al­most three times as many dairy cows, beef cattle and assorted young bovine fry, as there are men, women and children.

Fredon Township has 806 people,

County townships where a like situ ation prevails are Hampton, Hardy- ston, Lafayette and Vernon.

In Warren County, the cattle pop­ulation exceeds the census count of people in at least nine townships: Allamuchy, Belvidere, Blairstown, Frelinghuysen, Hardwick, Harmony, Hope, Knowlton and White.

Even in some of the less rural counties, isolated townships boast more bovine s than humans. In Plainsboro there are 2,375 cattle but only 1,170 people.

Other townships where Bossy still reigns supreme include Lumberton and Springfield in Burlington Coun­ty, Stow Creek in Cumberland, South Harrison in Gloucester, Bethlehem in Hunterdon and Mannington, Pilesgrove and Upper Pittsgrovc in Salem.

Army, Wian taught in the local school sys­tem for four years. He and his wife, the former Betty Abrahamson of here, are the parents of three chil­dren, Constance, Colleen and Cyn­thia.

Fucarino resigned to devote him­self to full-time teaching in the 6th grade at the Stockton Street School.

To Investigate Charge of Bias

Monroe Township.—A five man committee appointed by Mayor Ed­ward Szczepanik will investigate a charge of alleged racial bias against the township’s new welfare director, Mrs. Helen Fecskovics.

The charge was made during a Township Committee meeting last week by Mrs. Grace Massey, a spec­tator, who accused Mrs. Fecskovics of making a statement several years ago belittling Negroes.

Mrs. Fecskovics was appointed to the post director of welfare and overseer of the poor for a tempo­rary, three month term, to succeed! Mrs. Anna England. Her appoint-j ment was made by the Local Assist-! ance Board, headed by George H Baker.

The selection of the investigation committee, named at a special ses sion called by the mayor was scored by over a dozen persons led by Mrs. Massey.

Heading the committee is Eugene Jansak. Members are William Day, Frederick Young, Jan Grabowski and Mrs. Georgianne Nero. Mrs. Nero is a Negro.

The mayor has asked completion of the investigation in three weeks.

The New Jersey Turnpike Au­thority, in a letter to charter bus operators, expresses its deep con­cern “by repeated instances of dan­ger and serious inconvenience to passengers” resulting from mechan­ical breakdowns of such vehicles' while traveling on the Turnpike.

W. W.

The potato harvest is only being conducted on a small scale and largely for local markets, the New Jersey Stale Employment Service reported over the weekend. It stated that low prices have been preventing any concerted effort on the part of growers to dig.

Rainfall over the area has been uneven and varied from .10 to 2.43 inches, but in general the potato growers got enough rain to halt irrigation, the NJSES said.

The blueberry crop is the main one currently as far as labor re­quirements are concerned. There are about 2,900 pickers on the ber­ries in Monmouth, Ocean and Bur­lington counties. The corn harvest in the Burlington County area is expected to hit a peak the end of the week.

There are job openings for coup­les and singles to live-in at all area NJSES offices.

To Investigate Charge of Bias

Monroe Township.—A five man committee appointed by Mayor Ed­ward Szczepanik will investigate a charge of alleged racial bias against the township’s new vvelfare director, Mrs. Helen Fecskovics.

The charge was made during a Township Committee meeting last week by Mrs. Grace Massey, a spec­tator, who accused Mrs. Fecskovics of making a statement several years ago belittling Negroes.

Mrs. Fecskovics was appointed to the post director of welfare and overseer of the poor for a tempo­rary, three month term, to succeed Mrs. Anna England. Her appoint­ment was made by the Local Assist­ance Board, headed by George PL Baker.

The selection of the investigation committee, named at a special ses­sion called by the mayor was scored by over a dozen persons led by Mrs. Massey.

Heading the committee is Eugene Jansak. Members are William Day, Frederick Young, Jan Grabowski and Mrs. Georgianne Nero. Mrs. Nero is a Negro.

The mayor has asked completion of the investigation in three weeks.

Cows Have Upper Hand Spud Growers Unveil Plaque in Honor In 25 Jersey Townships ~ ............

There are still some places in New Jersey where the bovine popu­lation outnumbers the human resi­dents of the area.

Despite the rapid urbanization of the Garden State, the New Jersey Department of Agriculture reports that about 25 townships contain more cows than people. The report is based on the preliminary 1960 cen­sus count (for humans) and current records of the department’s Division of Animal Industry (for cows).

As might be expected ,tlie numeri­cal advantage of cattle is most ap­parent in Sussex and Warren coun­ties, the state’s most important dairy centers. Take Wantage Township in Sussex County, where there are al­most three times as many dairy cows, beef cattle and assorted young bovine fry, as there are men, women and children.

Fredon Township has 806 people,

’Pike Officials Irked by Bus Breakdowns

The New Jersey Turnpike Au­thority, in a letter to charter bus operators, expresses its deep con­cern “by repeated instances of dan­ger and serious inconvenience to passengers” resulting from rnechan ical breakdowns of sucli vehicles while traveling on the Turnpike.

W. W. Wanamaker, executive di rector of the Authority, states that in each of the three, most recent cases, failure Of owners to lake ef­fective action resulted in delays of nearly four hours, “ causing wholly unwarranted extension of exposure to danger and distressing personal inconvenience to passengers.

“Such delays have been tolerated in the past as unavoidable. How­ever, situations of this kind carry potentials of tragic accidents which call for corrective action now,” said the executive director. He asks the bus companies to review their char­ter operations with a view to estab­lishing safeguards guaranteeing that only buses in excellent mechanical condition are used for charter trips involving Turnpike travel.

Fie adds that most desirable steps

2,143 cattle. Green Township’s hu man population totals 837 while the cattle count is 1,786. Other Sussex County townships where a like situ­ation prevails are Hampton, Iiardy- ston, Lafayette and Vernon.

In Warren County, the cattle pop­ulation exceeds the census count of people in at least nine townships: Allamuchy, Belvidere, Blairstown, Frelinghuysen, Hardwick, Harmony, Hope, Knowlton and White.

Even in some of the less rural counties, isolated townships boast more bovines than humans. In Plainsboro there are 2,375 cattle but only 1,170 people.

Other townships where Bossy still reigns supreme include Lumberton and Springfield in Burlington Coun­ty, Stow Creek in Cumberland, South Harrison in Gloucester, Bethlehem in Hunterdon and Mannington, Pilesgrove and Upper Pittsgrove in Salem.

Low Prices Prevent Heavy Potato Digging

The potato harvest is only being conducted on a small scale and largely for local markets, the New Jersey State Employment Service reported over the weekend. It stated that low prices have been preventing any concerted effort on the part of growers to dig.

Rainfall over the area has been uneven and varied from .10 to 2.43 inches, but in general the potato growers got enough rain to halt irrigation, the NJSES said.

The blueberry crop is the main one currently as far as labor re­quirements are concerned. There are about 2,900 pickers on the ber­ries in Monmouth, Ocean and Bur­lington counties. The corn harvest in the Burlington County area is expected to hit a peak the end of the week.

There are job openings for coup- singes to iive-ui ai ail

Mercer Co. Employs 7891 Pa. Residents

Trenton.—One of every six work­ers employed in Mercer County lives outside the county and of these, half commute from Pennsylvania, accord­ing to a study of commuter patterns released today by the Division of Employment Security.

Frank T. Judge, acting commis­sioner of Labor and Industry, direct­or of the state agency, said that the report is the first in a research series to be issued for each of the 21 coun­ties in the state. When completed, the reports will provide information on the commuting habits of almost two million New Jersey workers.

The Mercer survey shows that, as of November 1958, workers employed in the county totalled 97,273. Of these, 83.5 per cent also live in the county. Of the 87,000 workers who live in Mercer and are employed somewhere in New Jersey, only 6 per cent earn their living outside the county. Among those commuting out are 1349 who work in Middlesex, 2128 who are employed in Burling­ton and 688 in Somerset.

In addition to the 7891 who come to work in Mercer from Pennsylvania are 3087 who commute from Bur­lington, 1220 from Middlesex and 700 from Hunterdon and Monmouth.

A new-to-New Jersey insect pest, first found in the vicinity of Jersey City two weeks ago, has been iden­tified as the European ehafer.

The insect, according to William M. Boyd, chief, Bureau of Entomolo­gy, New Jersey Department of Ag­riculture, was discovered in Brook­lyn, N. Y., and on three islands in the Hudsou River last year. Inspec­tors of the Federal and State 1 >e- partments of Agriculture have been scouting for it in New Jersey for the past two seasons. The original find here was made by Edmund G. War­ner of Mount Holly, district super­visor, Plant Pest Control Division, U. S. Department of Agriculture.

The European chafer, Boyd said, is potentially a serious pest of lawns, pastures, hay crops, forage crops and small grains. The larval or grub

ect does the damage, feeding on the roots of grasses. The adult, a light tan-colored beetle, about one-half inch in length, does not feed and is not injurious. It closely resembles the common June bug in appearance and attracts at­tention because of its habit of “buz­zing” around trees for about a half hour at dusk-.

102 DrowningsDrowirings in New Jersey last year took a toll of 102 lives, 20

less than recorded during the previous year, according to the New Jersey State Safety Council. As in past year, approximately 60 per cent of the drownings took place during the three Summer months— June, July and August and during that period last year 61 persons were victims of drownings.

The Council calls attention to the high rates of drownings ffl the age group 15-24 years which had 23 deaths in the three months, two less than recorded for the 12 months and the 5-14 years group which had 19 deaths in the period out of 29 for the entire year. Of the seven deaths recorded in the age group under five three occurred in the summer months. In the 25-64 years age group 1 1 drownings were recorded out of 32 for the year. Five lives of persons 05 years or more were lost out of 9 for the year.

The records show the need for not only a stepped-up program of supervision on the part of parents or those entrusted with the care of youngsters under 15 years but also show need for caution in the wage earning group from 24 to 65 years.

The Council suggests the following water-safety tips for swim­ming and bathing in other area: never swim alone and if you swim any distance in deep water start back before tiring; avoid horseplay on"runways, diving boards, in the water, or while in a boat; before wading, swimming or diving in unfamiliar waters, find out the depth of the" water and whether there are any hidden rocks, stumps or strong currents; stay' out of the water during storms and get out of the water, quickly if you feel chilled; never swim before one hour after eating; and if being helped out of the watei, let the rescuei handle you because whatever help you may offer may be considered as resistance bv the rescuer.

Take It EasyThe calendar and weather, at odds most of the spring and the

.early pari of summer, finally agree that New Jerseyans can enjoy the warm season. With the mercury' bouncing around in the 80s, it is wise to take notice of some tips on guarding your heart during the sizzling days ahead.

Fridav afternoons witness a mass exodus as people strike for a "restful" weekend at mountain and seashore resorts. Make sure that it is a restful weekend.

The heart is muscle and like any other muscle, after an ex­tended period of comparative inactivity during the winter months requires time and gradual build-up to attain its peak form and con­dition.

The New Jersey Heart Association suggests when you take that first dip, don’t swim until you are exhausted, but climb on the dock or beach and relax for a while. With a tennis racket in hand for the first time you begin to tire, postpone the next game until tomorrow. You will help your heart and may win the set.

Refurbishing the summer cottage is sometimes a booby trap for heart victims. Don’t trv to remove winter’s tarnish at one time. Take it in easy stages so you can enjoy the glistening fresh paint and hours of happiness the cottage offers.

I f you have an activity schedule in mind tor vacation and weekends make sure time is included for rest and relaxation. Y our heart will appreciate this and you can be assured of a happier and more profitable summer.

Democratic Candidates fo r Congress Poll Biggest Vote in Six Elections

By Kenneth Fink, Director, Princeton Research Set-vine

Princeton.—It an election for Con­gress were held in the state today,! Democratic candidates would get aj bigger vote than they did in any of! the past six statewide Congressional. Elections—from 1948 through 1958. 1

Today’s results are of special sig-1 nifican.cc because they provide an; excellent indication of the basic! strengths of the two major political; parties in the state less than-four; months before the November 8 elec-j Tlbhl.

A.t that time, every, one of the j state’s 14 House seats, plus the; state’s 16 electoral votes for Presi­dent and one U. S. Senate seat will! be up for grabs.

Here’s bow the vote went in the j state when New Jersey Poll stall reporters put the following question; in face to face interviews to a cross- section of 1,000 of the state’s adult population:

If the elections for Congress; were being held today, which party ’

Blimp in the SeaThe crash of the blimp into the Atlantic the other day could

well lead to an inquiry as to whether the Navy should continue to use any lighter-than-air ships.

It was ironic that the destruction of the blimp with the loss of some 17 lives while it was searching for a qoHoot sloop came just after it was found.

The experts are still attempting to explain what could have caiised the sudden crash of the blimp into the sea about 18 miles southeast of Barnegat Light. For a lighter-than-air-ship to fall so quickly indicates there may have been a complete loss of the helium gas that inflates the balloon and keeps it in the air.

A number of years ago several disastrous accidents led to the abandonment of the dirigibles that were based at Lakehurst. Per­haps the loss of the blimp will bring a call from many for their abandonment. Yet there remains the argument that the blimps have performed great service in both peace and war.

(Ten ‘Good’ MenI f the Democrats win the presidential election in November,

the 10 listed bv former president Harry Truman as good men that the convention delegates should take an extra look at, may well be in line for some highly attractive political posts—cabinet, commis­sion or agenev. . .

Mr. Truman’s favorite is Stuart Symington ot Missouri with Senator Lyndon B. Johnson of Texas runner up. Not far behind came Chester Bowles of Connecticut and Robert B. Mevner, New Jersey’s governor. Others on the list are Joseph Clark of Pennsyl­vania, Eugene J. McCarthy of Minnesota. Henry M. Jackson of Washington and Albert Gore of Tennessee, all senators, and Orville E Freeman of Minnesota and Leroy Collins of Florida, both gov-

The former president mav not carry too much influence at this convention, but he has named the men that the Democratic party will look strongly to if they win the election.

Rook ReviewPEOPLE AND PLACESBy MARGARET MEADNew York, N. Y„ World Pub. Co., 318 pp. $4 95

"People and Places,” written by the world-famous anthropologist Margaret Mead, is a fascinating book on man and some of the cultural groups existing in the past and present. It has been written for the 12- year-old and up and is interesting for younger readers and the adults who want an introduction to the nature of man and how he lived and changed his customs and habit to fit a changing and growing world.

Dr. Mead opens her book with “Man's Discovery of Man.”

"Wherever we find human beings, we find that they wonder about other people—the people who live across the mountain, in the next valley, or on the other side of the island. Even the simplest savages in the moun­tains of New Guinea or the jungles of South America know that there are other people who are different from themselves, who look different, walk differently and speak a different language. If it is safe to get close to them, they may find that they smell differ­ently, too, because they eat different food and put dif­ferent kinds of paint on their skin and hair.”

Using the study of the primitive people of today as a basis, Dr. Mead discusses how primitive man lived and developed gradually into the human being of today —the method of counting, sense of direction, ideas of the future, hunting and fishing and gathering of food, water supply, methods of agriculture and travel, do­mestication of animals, clothing, writing and the in­ventions that helped man advance.

Then Dr. Mead discusses the things that primitive men could see and think about but did not understand: birth and death, blood, bones and other parts of the human body, the matter of color (If a man had black skin, did this make him closer to a black bear than to a white bear, and was a white man more like a white bear or a white parrot than he was like a man with a black skin?)

Primitive man wondered about sleep and had a the­ory that when a man was asleep his soul went on a journey and dreams were the wonderful adventures the soul had while his body was asleep. The image of himself in a pool of water puzzled primitive man and so did sickness. The effects of hunger and starvation on the body could be seen as could the advantages of eating, but how and why the results were brought about were unknown to early man. The size and nat­ural differences of individuals were also a puzzlement.

Over a period of perhaps a millon years man has found some of the answers.

‘With each increase in knowledge . . . human beings become more the masters of their way of life and less helplessly dependent on theories which had to>be made up without knowledge. But even more important than the knowledge itself is man’s desire for knowledge, his endless curiosity about how he came to be, what he is doing on earth, and what his fate will be after death. And this hunger and thirst for knowledge civilized children and men of today and primitive children and men share with one another.”

After discussing how the anthropologist gathers ma­terial, Dr. Mead writes in detail of five cultures—the Eskimo, the Indians of the Plains, the Ashanti of West Africa, the Balinese and the Minoans of Crete. All five bad and -s-till have (except the Minoans who are

by Kathryn S. Dennis

all dead) the same basic needs though they developed in different parts of the world and in different ways. The Eskimos lived in the cold North, the Plains Indi­ans lived in small villages in southern Canada and the northern and western parts of the United States. The Ashanti lived on the Gold Coast, the Balinese in a tropical climate and the Minoans in Crete, aru island in warm waters.

Dr. Mead takes each group and speaks of their character, living quarters, food, hospitality, dress, travel, thoughts of life and death, ceremonies and what happened to them over the centuries. She presents an excellent over-all picture and makes one want to do further research and travel to some of the lands.

In a separate chapter Dr. Meads brings each group up to date, telling what has happened to them within the past two or three decades. After a period in which many Eskimos> died from diseases new to them and irom changes m their living conditions, the Eskimos are now more numerous with the help of modern med­icines. Some of the Plains Indians are faring well and riome are not. The Balinese have become a part of the lepubuc of Indonesia. The Ashanti, now numbering around a million are members'of the African republic ot Ghana. The Minoans are all with their ancestors but the modern Cretans are trying to guard the past.

Recognizing the fact that all peoples have the same basic needs, that different peoples work out their lives m different ways and that much is known about the peoples of the world, Dr. Mead states that there are >ome problems which must be solved by all peoples even though they do not know how to solve them The first and most important problem is “how to do away with warfare as a method of solving conflicts between national groups or between groups within a society who have different views about how the society is to be run.”

The second problem is "How are people going to keep informed of all the wonderful new changes that are happening" and there is the problem of "how to make sure that each human being has a chance to become all that it is possible for him to be in terms of all that we know when he is born.” When that is ac­complished new problems arise. “Among the children who live, there will be some who have special weak­nesses and who need special care and education and these children may have special gifts and talents which the human race has never before been able to save it will be necessary to provide each one with the nec­essary things . . . for living a normal life”

People and Places” is not only fascinating reading it is challenging and provocative and touches upon problems that thoughtful and intelligent human beings are trying to solve Dr. Mead is a good one to throer out the challenge because of her interest in and bril­liant studies on the primitive cultures of the Pacific bhe is also interested in studying bow children and veiling people learn their cultures and how these cul­tures are changing to meet modern demands.

at other levels of government. As recently reported, the total debt of New Jersey counties continues to climb. Many county governments are resorting to annual bond issues with their pyramiding interest costs reaching far into future years.

Ihus, the question of whether to build debt through borrowing or provide more structures for the fu­ture through pay-as-you-go current­ly looms large on New Jersey’s gov­ernmental horizon. How it is an­swered will largely determine the fiscal health of the state and its lo­cal governments and the welfare of the taxpayers.

The gradual federalizing of edu­cational financing is a dangerous j business. No person can successfully disprove the fact that some degree of power-to-control goes with Fed­eral “Aid” payments. This is entire­ly proper. The only real question is whether we want the Federal gov­ernment to gradually take over the operation of our schools and ulti­mately dictate what is to be taught and by whom.

Fiscal YearState Treasurer John A. Kervick

believes counties and municipalities of New Jersey should change their fiscal year from the present celandar year to conform with the fiscal year basis employed by the federal and state governments and local school districts.

A uniform fiscal year for all levels of government would be highly de­sirable to fiscal managers, Kervick insists.

The state treasurer also has some advice for municipal officials. Before the 1960 Federal census is officially promulgated, he suggests local offi­cials plan now to meet the impact of change. Big cities must plan to make their areas more attractive while the smaller areas must also plan to care for a greatly increased number of residcntsr he said.

Cancer FactsQ. Is progress being made in con-1

trolling pain cause by some advance' cancers ?

A. Yes. According to the Ameri­can Cancer Society, powerful radia-j tion techniques, radio-active iso- j topes, certain surgical procedures,; new sedatives and pain-killing drugs and selected hormones can keep pain [ under control in many patients.

Q. What progress is being made in cancer research ?

A. Important advances are being made in all fields of cancer research. Experimental work in chemical treatment is espcially promising.! Certain drugs discovered in recent | years have already proved useful ini slowing down cancer growths forj long periods. Drugs are being soughtl which will destroy cancer and also; prevent it from starting. Important; research is being done in immunolo­gy in an attempt to make vaccina­tion against cancer possible and to find better methods of cancer detec-j tion, reports the American Cancer! Society.

Q. Why is the cancer death rate; increasing among men and not among women ?

A. Mainly because of the rapidly j rising death toll from lung cancer j in men, reports the American Can-| cer Society. Also, more women are' now being saved by early detection! and effective treatment for two rea­sons: 1. They consult physicians!

more regularly and they pay more- attention to danger signals. ’ and 2. Cancer strikes women in sites such as the womb and breast where the disease is more accessible for diag­nosis and treatment.

Q. What are the more common cancers in men?

A. Cancer of the digestive organs and cancer of the lung account for more than half of all cancers in men, states the American Cancer Society. Cancer of the prostate is one of the most common forms of cancer in men over 60 years of age.

Q. What are the more common forms of cancer in women ?

A. Cancer of the reproductive or­gans and cancer of the breast ac­count for almost half of all cancers in women, reports the statistical de­partment of the American Cancer Society. Other cancers which occur frequently in women are: cancer of the intestines, stomach, rectum and skin.

Q. What can every woman do about breast cancer?

A. Every woman should have her breasts examined by a physician as part of her annual health checkup. She should learn from him the prop­er techniques for examining her own

breasts one a month and should coi tinue this practice for life. How i do this is explained in a film, "Brea Sdf-Examination” and a folder bol of which may be obtained from tf local unit or division of the Amer can Cancer Society.

Q■ Does cancer occur in childrenA. Yes. No age group is free <

cancer and certain forms, notab! leukemia, are found in young chi dren. Cancer takes the lives of moj children between the ages of 1 ar 14 than any other disease. Info; mation on leukemia can be obtaine irom the local unit or the New Je sey Divission, Inc. of the America Cancer Society.

Q. Is cancer increasing?A. I he number of recorded cai

cer deaths each year has ipcrcase from 41,000 in 1900 to about 265,0( in 1959, reports the American Cai cer Society. This bears a direct n lationship to tile increase in the t( lal population and the increase i the number of people over the aj of 45—the age when the canc< death rate rises sharply. Lung cai cer which was a rare disease in 190 has shown the most notable iflereas of all types of cancer.

Ju ly 18, 1960A MID YEAR REAPPRAISAL

The Stock Market Reappraised in the Light of Current Economic, Political and International Developments

The recent cut-back in steel production has been somewhat alarming to economists because it is an indicator that all is not going smoothly today. Nevertheless automobile output has been at the highest level since 1955while industrial construction is also at high levels. Principal suf­ferer, which is a large user of steel, is the household appliance indus­try. Basically the steel situation is not as critical as it appears. Following the steel strike there was a large accumulation on the part of most industries but today consumption appears to be exceed­ing production. The automobile industry should enjoy a better year and such stocks as Ford, for in­vestment, American Motors, as a businessman’s risk, and Chrysler, as a speculation are attractive.

The paper industry seems head­ed for a good year and Crown Zellerbach and International Pa­per look attractive at current mar­ket levels.

Allied Chemical, American Cy- anamid, and Monsanto Chemical should benefit from a good year in the chemical industry.

Even some oil stocks appear at­tractive although the outlook for the oil industry is still not too promising. Among these we favor are1 Standard Oil of N. J. and Socony-Mobil.

In the heavy equipment field benefiting from high capital ex­penditures are General Electric, Wcstingholisc Electric and Blare Knox. Other companies doing well include Eastman Kodak, IBM, International Nickel, and U. S. Rubber.

Most of the glamor stocks have reached price areas where they may be vulnerable to any stock market decline, but Avco, Philco, and Sperry Rand are still selling at less than 20 times earnings. Brunswick Corp. is a leader in the leisure time field.

The shift from an era of co­existence back to one of the Cold

War should result in increased military expenditures with Gen­eral Dynamics and Martin Co., be­ing two important beneficiaries.

The growing economy overseas especially in Europe, should bene­fit Colgate Palmolive, Ferro Corp., Heinz, Otis Elevator and Wool- worth.

Outcome of the presidential elec­tion can have an important effect on investor psychology, and if a president were elected who would be considered favorable toward business, stocks should perform relatively well, while if someone were elected who is considered un­favorable to business, it could re­sult in a rather serious decline in stock prices.

In the near future we can expect | administrative action to stimulate' the economy through easier money | and other media, for it is politi­cally essential to have favorable economic conditions at the time of an election. Therefore,, business is likely to improve before election time with resulting higher stock prices. Easier money is likely to result in lower interest rates which in turn would cause higher prices, for bonds as well as such fixed income stocks as selected public utilities and some food retail and tobacco stocks. International ten­sions should result in increased demand for stocks of companies closely related to the defense program.

Although the near term outlook for the stock market and for busi­ness is favorable a more cautious approach should be taken toward the intermediate ter:"' when one considers that declines from both business and the stock market have taken place in post-presidential election yearly ng

says you’ll make good use of your time if you space these runner plants around their parents, like the spokes of a wheel.

Allow about 4 inches between plants, he suggests, so that each plant can have room to grow and produce berries for you next year. If you allow too many plants to stand in a row, they’ll act like weeds, competing with each other.

By this method you’ll develop a “matted row,” After this row is full of plants 4 inches apart and is about 3 feet wide you can remove any oth­er runners that the plants produce.

Pepper Troub leC.F.H. of Cliffside Park has been

having trouble with pepper plants. Buds keep falling off and every once in a while the whole plant droops, then picks up again. Mr. H. wrote that he has been growing his pep­pers in soil made richer by chicken and horse manure.

A Rutgers vegetable specialist, W, Bradford Johnson, suggests two reasons for such behavior.

Could be that the plants are get­ting too much nitrogen from the two kinds of manure. Fresh horse manure, especially, can burn sensi­tive roots.

One way to be sure is to pull up one of the plants to see if its roots have been hurt.

The other possibility is that the manure is making the soil too loose. As a result, too much air may be getting into the soil so that the pep­per plant roots are drying out.

Watering TreesThe easiest and most efficient way

to water a shade tree during a drought is to sink tile vertically into the ground about every 8 to 10 feet in an area covered by the spread of the branches.

Take the nozzle off the hose and let water run into each tile for about a half-hour. Regulate the flow so that water does not come out over the top of the tile.

It remains to be seen whether in (0 years or so the golden records of this trio of millionaires will, like those of Hiss Woodford and Iroquois, have turned to yellowing pages in the record book.

It wasn’t too long ago when a horse that earned $100,000 in his lifetime was news­worthy. Today, no less than a

These days it is possible for a horse to earn $100,000, or the greater part of it, in any of $9 races. Four horses will do so on July >0. Miss Woodford raced 48 times, win­ning 37, to earn $118,270 in her lifetime. On July 80 the Delaware Handicap, for fillies and mares, will be worth a gross of $150,000. Three other $100,000 races that day are:. Aqueduct’s Brooklyn Handi­cap, the Arlington Park Fu­turity and Monmouth Park’s Sorority Stakes.

Trenton.—Striped bass fishingalong the New Jersey shore should be excellent for several years, ex­perts of the State Division of Fish and Game predicted today.

During late April and early May a tremendous body of young striped bass maved through New Jersey’s costal waters. Many seasoned ob­servers pronounced it the heaviest run qf young fish they had ever seen. Although these fish wefe small and could not be legally retained by anglers, they are considered harbin­gers of good fishing in the future.

In February, 1959, biologists of the Virginia and the Maryland Fisheries Laboratories announced the presence of unusually large numbers of young striped bass in the spawning and nursery areas of their respective states. These fish were the result of unusually successful spawning in the spring of 1958,

Young striped bass stay fairly close to their nursery areas for the first two years of life and thereafter take part in the annual north-south migration. Most of the fish which passed through New Jersey waters will probably spend the summer in southern New England, Paul Ha­mer, biologist in charge of the Fish and Game Division’s marine labora tory, believes that many of them will not return to Chesapeake Bay in the fall but will winter in places such as New Jersey’s own Barnegat Bay or the Mullica and Egg Harbor rivers.

If their growth follows the usual pattern these fish will have attained legal size in one or two years and should prov'de excc':1ent fishing for several years thereafter, the Division of Fish «bd Game said.

Marine fish populations in general are not maintained by an annual in­crement of young fish but by occa­sional good years, generally followed by several poor ones. The fisheries depend upon the fish produced dur­ing the good years, the contribution of the poor years being almost neg­ligible. This accounts for most of the fluctuations observed in the aboundance of fish such as striped bass.

A sweep by Hutchinson’s Men’s Shop over the Hightstown Lanes put them right back in contention. Jack Septak cracked the ovals for 214, 195, 194 to highlight the HMS at tack. He got help from Joe Petro at 195. High man for the Lanes was Frank Matheson, 191, 183.

Trenton Oval Lists 300-Mile Midget Race

Predictions of the greatest assem­blage of star racing chauffeurs are being made by racing director Sam Nunis relative to the 300-mile inter­national midget auto racing cham­pionship at the Trenton Speedway Sunday afternoon, July 24.

Director Nunis, speedway impre­sario for the past 32 years around the United States, stated today: “I have been in contact with outstand­ing drivers from all parts of the country in recent weeks, discussed this biggest of all midget auto races with all of [the Indianapolis Speed­way contenders before and after the Memorial Day classic, told them of posting a record $15,000 cash purse, to which will be added lap money and other prizes and feel confident that there will be more topflight pi­lots at the Trenton one-mile dustless track than ever gathered anywhere for races in which the speedy little cars participate.”

to stay on good terms with their neighbors, but also to control chick­en deaths from disease.

Disposal of dead birds is an im­portant part of the over-all sanita­tion program and the use of dead bird disposal pits is recommended.

Such pits are approved and en­dorsed by the State Department of Health and local health departments.

A pit is simply, a . hole in the ground with cinder block sides and a concrete cover with aq opening to receive dead birds. The top should be covered and graded to provide drainage away from the pit.

Locate the pit at least 100 feet from all dwellings, wells or springs.

The size of the pit depends on the size of the flock and the death rate. A rule commonly used is to estimate 24 per cent mortality and 4 birds to a cubic foot in a year.

By placing all dead birda and parts into the pit immediately the poultry-1 man forms a habit that can eliminate a source of disease spread and re­duce chances for flies to breed.

No BlightLate blight has not been found in

potato and tomato fields as this is being written. However, there is a possibility of a trace to a light amount in unprotected fields in cen­tral Jersey. Growers are advised to apply a recommended fungicide at 7-10 day intervals.

Home gardeners may spray or dust tomatoes with a maneb or cop­per material to protect plants against blight.

Millipedes Invading HomesFor some reason, millipede popu­

lations have been building up in many areas. These millipedes are dark brown or black, have many legs and two prominent antennae. They live on decaying organic matter and homeowners are annoyed by literally thousands of them crawling up the sides of houses and entering enclosed porches.

Control measures consist of dust-

quire less than the heavy clay type soils.

It is better not to apply the water until the grass shows si^ns of need­ing water. The first indicator of the need for water is a blue-green^ or grayish type color of the grass. This color may be first detected in small areas, which are localized dry spots, before the entire lawn shows signs of off-color.

During prolonged dry periods, ; thorough watering once a week usu­ally will be adequate.

Proper watering will maintain green color during dry spells but is not necessary to keep the grass alive. Grass browned from lack of moisture may appear to be dead but with the return of cooler and more moist weather, it will recover surprisingly fast.

The frequent light sprinkling will promote shallow root development which will make the lawn even more susceptible to any dry spell which may follow. Furthermore, it pro­motes the growth of crabgrass and other shallow rooted weeds.

Fall Alfalfa SeedingIf you plan to make a new seeding

of alfalfa this fall, it is not too early to think about preparing a proper seedbed.

Two important steps should be taken now to prepare for your new seeding of alfalfa in late August or early September. If the soil pH is below' 6.0 adequate lime should be applied to raise the pH above 6.5.

If the soil is strongly acid, it's best to postpone your new seeding until next year. On soils of this type the lime should be applied 6 months to a year before seeding to give the lime time to neutralize the acidity which alfalfa cannot tolerate.

After application, lime should be worked into the soil.

A second important step is early plowing—at least 4 weeks before you plan to seed. This allows time for old refuse to decompose and the soil

HUSBANDS’ RESPONSIBILITIESA husband is legally bound to

support his wife according to his means. This could mean that the wife is entitled to a domestic serv­ant, or as one case held, entitled to a stable of horses. The wife’s wealth does not relieve a husband from supporting his wife, nor in determin­ing in what manner he is to support her. When the husband and wife are living together and the wife pur­chases necessities, she legally acts as her husband’s agent and he can be held accountable for these purchases. But if the husband has made reason­able and adequate provision for nec­essaries, he will not be held account­able. If the credit is given to the wife, even though living with her husband ,the husband will not be held responsible for these purchases.

If the wife and husband live apart, then under the same situation, the seller of the necessaries must prove that the husband has failed to pro­vide the wife with these necessities, in order for the seller of the goods to recover,from the husband. Where husband and wife are separated and living apart, through no fault of the husband, the law will not presume that an agency exists and there is no obligation to support. Usually, a husband is not held acco,untable or liable for any of his wife’s debts in­curred before marriage, but he may be held liable to the extent of any property which he received from her. In most states where an aban­doned wife uses her own money to support herself and her children, she may recover the money she spent from her husband.

PEACHES GALOREA bumper peach crop, the largest

since 1947, is novr rolling into north eastern markets. The excellent qual ity of these peaches is a fitting trib ute to a fine growing season, blessed with lots of sunshine and just the right amount of rain. A harvest of close to 76J4 million bushels is like­ly, says the U. S. Department of Ag­riculture, 2 per cent greater than the 1959 crop and 22 per cent above av­erage.

Notice how delightfully fresh, juicy and flavorful this year’s peach­es taste. One of the main reasons they can maintain their just-off-the- tree high quality—even after long train and truck rides—is an out­standing advance in food technology called “hydro-cooling.”

This process permits the harvest­ing of peaches when tree ripened al­most to the point of full maturity. If you’ve ever picked a peach right off the tree in its full bloom of ripe­ness, you know what tree ripening does for its flavor, how remarkably juicy and delicious and fragrant it can be.

After the peaches are picked they are transported by truck to packing houses adjoining the orchards, where they are transferred to conveyor belts for sorting and grading. The conveyor belts then move the fruit through an ice-cold water spray un­til they are thoroughly chilled—this is hydro-cooling. The next step is careful hand-packing into baskets or lugs which arc systematically stack­ed into refrigerated cars and trucks.

With peaches so plentiful, north­eastern food shoppers are bound to be shopping for them often in the weeks ahead. The sweetly tart re­freshing quality of the fruit is es­pecially pleasing as the thermometer soars. You'll be serving peaches as is, in desserts with ice cream and whipped cream, in pies, pastries and shortcakes, in fruit salad appetizers and main dishes, in garnishes for turkey and ham and a variety of oth­er ways.

Many homemakers will be buying peaches in bulk for canning and

freezing. Be sure to buy good qual­ity fruit for the best results. One of the most important things to look for in selecting peaches is the ground color—or under color—indi­cates the fruit has ripened satisfac­torily. Immature peaches have a green undertone and lack flavor and juiciness.

Firmness is important, too. Hard peaches will not ripen satisfactorily. I'irm and firm-ripe peaches are bet- ter buys, for they can be kept a day or two well-chilled—and still main­tain their good flavor. Fully ripe peaches are excellent for immediate eating.

Here s a pleasing recipe combining two July plentiful^ Peach Ice Cream r'le, thats recommended by U. S. Department of Agriculture home economists. It's a “no baking” recipe ideal for a cool, easy-to-do hot weather dish. For the crust, use cookie or graham cracker crumbs. Moisten with just enough melted butter to hold the crumbs together and carefully press into the pie pan. Lhul until firm. Then spread soft­ened ice cream, using vanilla or a nutty ice cream into a thin layer over the crust. Add a layer of fresh peach slimes (be careful not to over­lay the slices) . . . then more ice cream . . . another layer of peaches . . . a layer of ice cream and then just enough peaches on top to form a wreath around the edge of the pie. Lnill about an hour before serving.

Usually with Winner In President Elections

Trenton.—New Jersey is usually on the winning side in presidential elections.

Residents of the state were in­strumental in naming General George Washington to two terms as president and also helped John Ad­ams, a Federalist, to the White House in 1796. Four years later New Jersey failed in its attempt to reelect Adams and Thomas Jefferson, a Democrat-Republican, became presi­dent. Again in four years New Jer­sey gave Jefferson a push to the White Flouse for a second four year term.

New Jersey helped elect James Madison in 1808 as president but fa­vored DeWitt Clinton four years lat­er when Madison again carried the young nation. The state was on the losing side during the next two pres­idential elections but won out in 1832 by supporting Andrew Jackson. In 1836 the state’s residents guessed wrong but in 1840 helped to elect William H. Harrison.

Henry Clay, a Whig, received the nod from New Jersey voters in 1844 but James Polk, Democrat, was elected. In succeeding presidential elections New Jersey went along with Zachery Taylor, a Whig; Franklin Pierce, a Democrat, and James Buchanan, a Democrat. In 1860 and 1864 the State voted against Abraham Lincoln. General U. S. Grant, Republican, lost New Jersey in 1868 but won the election and in 1872 New Jersey helped to reelect him.

In 1876 and 1880, New Jersey vot­ers were on the losing end of the presidential elections. In the suc­ceeding years prior to 1840 New Jer­sey voted twice with the losers but joined the nation in supporting Cleveland in 1892, McKinley in 1890 and 1900, Teddy Roosevelt in 1904, Taft in 1908, Wilson in 1912, Hard­ing in 1920, Coolidge in 1924, Hoovei in 1928 and Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1932, 1936, 1940 and 1944. In 1948 the state voted for Governor Thomas E. Dewey, Republican of New York, over President Harry S. Truman, the winner.

President Dwight D. Eisenhower won New Jersey handily over his Democratic opponent, Adlai Steven­son, in 1952 and 1956. The outcome of the state's presidential election on November 8 next is anybody's guess.

ElectionPresidential election tirades which

are startling the nation anew these days are but a watered-down repeti­tion of political campaigns a century ago when straight-from-the-shoulder criticis prevailed.

One hundred years ago almost to the day when the presidential term of Democrat James Buchanan was expiring and the sharp Lincoln- Douglas debates were arousing the nation, the New York Times edito­rialized :

“ If the Old Public Functionary who has presided during the past 40 months over the distribution of our Federal patronage has not become satisfied by this time that his admin­istration has been a failure, and the j most utter failure on record, we can] only account for it by regarding him either as self-conceited beyond the arrow flight of rebuke, or as possess­ing a density and apathy of the moral nerves, utterly paralyzing

[those organs through which ordinary men are made aware of shame.”

About the same time Herschel V. Johnson of Georgia selected as the vice presidential running-mate of Democrat Stephen A. Douglas of Illinois, was hung in effigy at Macon,

iGa. Returning from Washington, [Johnson saw the effigy hanging from a tree near his hotel.

The Ohio Statesman, another news­paper, commenting on the Baltimore

I Convention which split the Demo­cratic party in twain, commented: “We are now purified and free of the fire-eaters and dirt-eaters, who were nothing but a dead weight up­on the party.”

Sea ShootersSea-going cowboys who take great

delight in destroying safety devices on the inland tidal waterways of New Jersey are the subject of a current sea hunt by crews of the State Bureau of Navigation.

In addition to periodic storms which shift the location of buoys, the bureau is.disturbed by individu­als traveling on small boats putting bullets through can buoys, causing them to fill with water and sink, or

[shooting "lit the lights of flushing beacons thereby creating a naviga tion hazard.

! A recent inspection trip by Peter |J. Gannon on the State Navigation [boat disclosed a beacon in the Toms |River area out of order. Closer in­spection disclosed some gun happy j individual had fired a bullet through the battery-container box and into

[the battery. The battery liquid had drained out through the bullet hole causing the light to go out.

i From the Shrewsbury River down j along the coastal bays and rivers to IDeleware Bay and up the Delaware River to Bridgeton, men are busy

[placing, replacing and repairing the | black can buoys, pointed red nun buoys, flashing beacons and spar buoys and thousands of channel markers. They are also looking for sea-going cowboys.

Car KillersThe 1901 New Jersey Legislature

will be asked to enact a law classify­ing some persons who cause fatal accidents as being guilty of “care­less and heedless driving” so they may receive just penalties tor the deaths.

The annual State Judicial Council proposed such a statute but also urged that the words "willful and wantonness” be retained in the pres-

ient law for extreme cases.County prosecutors have complain­

ed that the present law often means j that ^rand juries will not indict and ; petit juries will not convict. In many [cases jurors believe the driver guilty .o f careless and heedless driving but not willful and wanton.

New Jersey-Your State and Mine

W hen plans change — you’re delayed — or someone suddenly says — “ Oh! Oh! We left the windows open!” — it’s nice to know that there’s a phone just ahead — anywhere you go.

The phone keeps you in touch — in person. So much more satisfying. So much faster and easier than writing. Phoning gives you more time to relax and enjoy your vacation.

Friend# things campfires—but fiends, ft* Carelessly put out . , , just one glowing coal missed . . . they can roar back to fife and »tart dangerous forest fires.

loss of life . . . destruction of irreplaceable amber and watershed . . . can be the tragic aftermath of a campfire getting out of hand.

During these fire hazard months, every flame-rfrom a match or cigarette up—is a threat. Forest areas vital beyond dollar evaluation to America's welfare are in dangor.

So be doubly careful. It's still, a fact that 9 out of 10 forest fires are man-caused. Be sure all fires are out , , , drowned, dead out.
