WORLD OUTDOORS
I N THE good old Summertime
our pursuit of pleasure takes us
to the world outdoors and what
ever our particular form of rec
reation may be, chances are that
we will be near water.
Swimming, boating and fishing,
of course, are three sports where
water is directly involved. Every
Summer thousands of men, wom
en and children who are not com
petent swimmers indulge in these
sports in one degree or another
—end many of them needlessly
drown.
For safety's sake, when you are
around water, keep your head at
all times. If you cannot swim, be
a "sissy" and stay in the shal
low water. If you consider your
self an expert swimmer, don’t
p»i«h your luck by swimming too
far from shore or swimming with
out a companion. If you find your
self in swift water or a dangerous
current, don’t get excited or pan
icky. Swim diagonally across the
current, slowly. Don’t buck it,
make it work for you.
If your boat turns over, again,
don't get excited. Whether you are
an expert swimmer or a begin
ner you can save yourself by keep
ing your nerve and clinging to
your boat.
Body cramps and current are
dangerous hazards but equally
dangerous is the act of getting
panicky in the water. If you find
yourself in a dangerous situation,
make an effort to conserve energy
•nH not waste it flailing about in
the water. You’ll drown only if you
lose control, give out of breath,
swallow water, or tire yourself
out too quickly.

SO-CALLED CIVIL RIGHTS
FIGHT UNDERWAY
This is one of tlie most trying
times in the history of our co
untry for the Southern members
of the Senate who must fight
against the enactment of the so-
called civil rights bills..
We have been holding cau
cuses to make plans for the
extended debate which appears
to be forced upon us by the lib
erals. Debate can start when a
motionn is made to take up the
civil rights bill for considerat
ion. Then, if it should actually
be taken up, the bill itself can
be debated at length. Each am
endment also can be debated to
some extent. The best strategy,
however, might lead to differ
ent use of our time.
It would take a motion by 16
Senators to force the Senate to
bring to a vote whether or not
to cut off debate. Then the vote
on limiting debate—or cfloture,
as it is called—requires the sup
port of 64 Senators actually to
cut off debate and limit speeches
by each Senator to one hour.
BILL WILL BE
FULLY DEBATED
It is my intention, and the
intention of each Southern Sen
ator who has participated in our
meetings, to do everything poss
ible to continue debate to the full
est extent. We do not intend to
bow to the dicates of the liberals
of both parties who want to force
their form of so-called civil rights
down our throats.
I hope—but have little reason
to believe— that by the next time
I write my report to the people,
the civil rights issue will have
been resolved in favor of the
rights of the people and the prin
ciples of Constitutional Govern
ment.
RESOLUTION ON FOREIGN
TRIALS INTRODUCED
I have introduced a resolution
in the Senate to make known
the views of the Congress and the
people of officials of the Govern
ment who deal with problems of
our Armed Forces overseas. In
my opinion, the people want our
men in service to be protected
by having the right to be tried
by our own courts-martial when
they are charged with committing
a crime while in the performance
of their duty.
Under the so-ffalled Status of
Forces Treaties, when our men
are sent to a country, where such
agreements are in effect, our mil
itary authorities "have the prim
ary right to exercise jurisdiction
over our men” in relation to
“offences arising out of any act
or omission done in the perfor
mance of official duty.”
However, another provision of
the treaties provides that:
“The authorities of the State
having the primary right shall
give sympathetic consideration to
a request from the authorities of
the other State for a waiver of
its right in cases where that
other State considers such waiver
to be of particular importance.”
GIRARD CASE IS EXAMPLE
That is the point which concerns
me. The best illustration of what
can happen when the United
States waives the primary right
to jurisdiction over a member of
our Armed Forces is the Girard
Case, which is now pending be
fore the Supreme Court. I ant
icipate that, under the waiver pro
vision, the Court will permit
Girard to be turned over to the
Japanese for trial.
When this country sends fight
ing men overseas, the least we can
do is to protect the best interests
of the men by providing them
trial by our own courts-martial
for acts done when they are on
duty.

BOYS ARE
THAT WAY
By J. M. ELEAZER
We had little in the way of
bought toys and things back in
our stone hills of the Dutch
Fork when I was a kid. But we
made the most out of what we
had, and that was enough.
The Chinaberry tree had a lot
of meaning for us. Some good,
some bad." ,
The bad part was that it
would sprout' up so on the
ditch banks and hedge rows, and
we had to be everlastingly cut
ting ’em down* And when it
bloomed we held our noses in,
passing it. For the colored
folks had taught us the smell
ing of those blooms would give
us dysentery. Where there wras
just a tree or two, we would
hold our noses and run by them.
But if the path was by a Miole
row of ’em, we would take a de
tour out through the field. Other
than for these two reasons, we
liked those trees.
The main thing we liked about
them was the berries they fur
nished in such abundance for
our popguns.
We made our guns from cane
joints that grew down on the
creek. The ramrod was whittled
from an easy-cutting piece of
pine. It was a bit shorter than
the barrel, so as to not quite
push the berry through. That
one then furnished the bullet
when the next one was forced
in from the other end. And it
would leave the barrel with
quite a pop.
We had all sizes of pop guns.
This enabled us to start when
the berries were quite small. As
they grew, we used a little big
ger gun. And that continued un
til, alas, the seed got hard in
the berries and would split our
guns when forced into them.
That was a sad day.
But for about a month we had
a merry time. And our pockets
were never empty of ammuni
tion. We fought our wars with
those guns. And a Chinaberry
shot hard, just before the seed
matured, could really sting you.
Parents protested, on account
of the danger to eyes. But that
got little result, for we had too
much room to be cramped.
PURE WATER is distributed in a typical scene dupUcatcd ma y
times in the flood-ravaged areas of eastern Kentucky, g * nl * * -
West Virginia. To meet the recent flood situation which had cut off
10,000 families from drinking water supplies, four dairy firm * p "‘
their eight plants to work preparing 60,000 gallons of ■j^^aterln
cardboard milk cartons and milk tank trucks. It was the first time
the Federal Civil Defense Administration’s plan for emergency
water distribution had been put to practical use in a disaster.
