WASHINGTON
THERE IS NO more flagrant
example of how the politically
contrived race issue has distort
ed our national sense of values
than what is happening on Oki
nawa.
Just outside the big United
States air base at Kadena on
that Pacific Is
land which is
the nerve cen
ter of Ameri
can defenses
in the Far
East there has
sprung up one
of the vilest
and most no-
torious areas of organized vice
the world has ever seen. It is a
complex of 16 so-called “recrea
tion” villages known as the
“Koza Area” in which more than
5500 bars and at least 15,000
“hostesses” cater to the basest
of human desires. An article
written several years ago for
Harpers Magazine by a former
Marine officer stationed there
reported a resulting venereal
disease rate running as high as
15 per cent.
* * •
THIS DEPLORABLE situa
tion has been called to the at
tention of the highest authori
ties, but not for the reason one
might imagine. The complaints
are not that young Americans
are being corrupted on Okinawa
but rather that they are indulg
ing m depravity on a segregated
basis.
Through the operation of vol
untary’ preference, specific sec
tions of the “Koza Area” have
come to be patronized exclusive
ly by white and colored service
personnel. The custom is that
white troops go to “Koza Busi
ness Center” and Negro service
men use the section known as
“Koza Four Corners.” Military
Police have reported that vio-
Friends of Bill Jones, who is
in the University Hospital in Au

Negro Congressman Charles
C. Diggs, Jr., of Michigan has
complained to Defense Secretary
Robert S. McNamara that the
inability of Negro soldiers to
engage in integrated sin on Oki

the part of the Defense Depart

is “detrimental to the com

INSTEAD OF ACTING to
clean up the vice on Okinawa,
Lt. Gen. Paul W. Caraway,
High Commissioner to the Ryu
kyu Islands and Army Com
mander for the Island, is taking
steps to eliminate segregated
vice by bringing various pres
sures upon establishments which
“practice or condone racial dis
crimination.” His course has
prompted even the apologetic
Washington Post to observe that
“his reform approach ... is to
clean up segregated vice, not
vice per se.”
It is hardly a source of com
fort to the mothers of our men
in uniform or to those millions
of Americans who still believe in
old-fashioned morality to know
that the Armed Services of our
country are more interested in
ending segregation than in com
batting sin. It is a sad com
mentary upon how ridiculous
has become the posture of our
national government as the re
sult of cynical attempts to ex
ploit racial minorities for politi
cal gain.

FEED GRAIN PROGRAM
CONSERVATION USES
You probably know by now that
; the sign-up for the 1962 Feed Grain
> Program is underway. We hope
। that you have studied and com
. pared your net income as a coop
', orator and as a non-cooperator to
I determine if you will participate
I or not.
Today I will give you some in
. formation on the conservation
; uses of the program. If you need
‘ additional information, you should
। contact the county ASCS office.
The diverted acreage may be
devoted to permanent-type rota
tion cover of grasses and legumes.
You may use temporary cover of
grasses, legumes, or small grains.
Water storage and wildlife food
or habitat plantings can qualify
for the conservation uses provi
sion.
’ You may also plant trees or
1 shrubs to take advantage.
There are restrictions to the
' conservation uses of the Feed
’ Grain Program for these diverted
’ acres, so check with the ASCS
office before the sign-up is over
on March 30 if you are going to
participate.
। PRE-EMERGENCE
COTTON WEED CONTROL
’ The use of chemicals for pre
emergence weed control for cot
ton is now being accepted as a
good method. It is efficient as well
as economical.
A great deal of research has
been done on the correct chemi
cals to use in this, and if you will
contact my office, I will be glad
to furnish you the desired infor
' mation. It is most important that
> you follow the correct recommen
■ dations in order to benefit.
Pre-emergence chemicals can
be applied as cotton is planted

CARE OF COW AT
CALVING TIME
Calving time is one of the most
important or crucial times in a
cow’s life. There are things a cow
man may do at this time that may
save the calf’s life and the cow’s,
too.
According to research, you can
increase the number of calves
raised from 50 per cent to 90 per
cent by following a few simple
management practices.
Heavy springing cows should
be placed in a pasture with a few
shade trees for protection from
the sun. A thinly wooded area is
needed for a windbreak, too.
The calving pasture needs to be
checked two or three times a day.
The more you check, the better.
The new calf should be tattoed
or ear tagged for identification
as early as possible. If you delay
this task for a day or two, the
' job of handling the calf becomes
■ somewhat harder.
' SKIP-ROW COTTON PLANTING
' This year you will have an op
portunity to select the pattern
that best suits your cotton opera
tion as far as “skip-row” planting
is concerned.
The four row limitation on ski
row planting will not apply to
this year’s cotton crop. Under the
new system, only land actually
planted to cotton will be counted
as cotton land in determining com
pliance with acreage allotments
and marketing orders.
Boost State With
Positive Approach,
Minter Suggests
ATLANTA, (GPS) — Georgians
who profess a sincere interest in
Georgia’s continued economic
. growth would do well to promote
industrial development in a posi
tive rather than a negative man
ner, in the opinion of Jack J
Minter, director of the Georgis |
Department of Commerce.
Minter’s statement was prompt
ed by the remarks of a Georgia
Tech industrial management pro
fessor, Dr. Sherman F. Dallas,
who recently told a Savannah
civic club that some Georgia com
munities are privately working to
keep new industry out. of the state
for fear of having to pay higher
wages.
The commerce director, who
said he was not familiar with the
industrial survey Dr. Dallas claims
he made in this field, took strong
exception to the professor’s asser
tion in which he declined to re
veal the names of communities
supposedly working against indus
trialization.
“Such reports have absolutely
no foundation,” Minter declared.
“If they (the new industries) are
reputable, I don’t know of any
community that would work to
keep them out. Those who pro
fess a sincere interest in Georgia’s
future could contribute much to
ward our industrial development
program’s success if they would
adopt a positive rather than s
negative attitude.”

Interest In Pecans
Demonstrated By
Dodge 4-H Project
A 4-H Club project has been
responsible for the planting of
3,500 pecan trees in two years in
Dodge County.
Businessman W. S. Stuckey says
he plans to continue sponsoring
the project at least three more
years, with the goal of adding a
total of 10,000 to the county’s pe
can tree population.
This winter, for the second year,
Mr. Stuckey has made the trees
available to 4-H’ers on a one-for
one basis. For every seedling of
the Desirable variety a boy or
girl would purchase for $1.65, he
would give them another. Last
year the Stuart variety was pur
chased for this project.
Mr. Stuckey worked closely
with County Agent Carter Mar
tin in planning and carrying out
the project, with the county agent
giving instructions to those who
obtained the seedlings.
“Most of the boys and girls
have done an excellent job of
planting their trees,” the county
agent said.
Mr. Stuckey is a man with a
lot of faith in the future of the
pecan, which he calls the ‘neglect-
I ed nut.” This is understandable,
since he has built a firm doing
an annual business of about sl6
million around the pecan. From
his Eastman plant and office he
directs the chain of 103 roadside
stores in 29 states.
He refers to the pecan as the
“neglected nut” because he thinks
the potential for marketing pecans
is far from being what it should.
“There is tremendous room for

। expansion in pecan marketing,” he
■ emphasized.
One stumbling block to develop
ment, he said, has been great fluc
tuations in prices from year to
year. “This tends to scare a lot
of people off from making-prod
ucts that use pecans.” A depend
able supply and a more stable
price could lead to expansionoof
the pecan market, he said.
Stuckey’s now uses about-4^
million pounds of pecans a year,
and is planning to build a cold
storage plant in Eastman that will
hold one million pounds.
Mr. Stuckey said he should like
to see other pecan using and pro
cessing businesses sponsor a plant
ing program such as he has with
Dodge County 4-H members.
As an indication of the interest
he believes they would get, he
pointed out results of an offer he
made to send a booklet on pecan
growing in a recent item in a farm
magazine. Although the offer was
made at the end of a short article
in the December issue of the mag
azine, by the end of January he
had already received over I,OCO
rquests. Many of them were from
states as far away as New York,
, Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas.
Nearly all were from out of Geor
gia because the book, a Georgia
Extension Service bulletin, ha<l
already been available to Geoi
