Rides 'N' Riders The costs of running news- papers h9..3 gone up considerably throughout the country and the Cooperator is no exception. In addition to our increased costs of printing, other Cooperator ex- penses have steadily mounted and our revenue has not kept pace. We are forced, therefore, to discontinue. our practice of mak- ing free space available to those people ad"·ertising for rides rldNs. Beginning next week "ride 'n' rider" ads will be treat- ed the same as classifiEd aas. The charge will be 3 cents a word with a minimum of 50 for each ad. The Cooperator regrets the ne- ecssity for this move but we be- lieve our readE:rs will under- stand.

City Employees Gtttl $300 Pay Raise; Council Considr-rs lew Traffic Code

A coRt of living pay raise of $300 a year was granted to city (·mplo:,;ees last :'wlonday by the city counciJ. The raise is retroactive to last July 1. About 35 permanent employees will get the raiset and part time employees will rt!Ceive comparative raises dept"nding on their hourly rate. Not included in .the increase were the city solicitol', the public heaith offic·~r, the city manager or the kinder­gartr·n teachers.

Rides 'N' Riders The costs of running news­

papers h9..3 gone up considerably throughout the country and the Cooperator is no exception. In addition to our increased costs of printing, other Cooperator ex­penses have steadily mounted and our revenue has not kept pace.

We are forced, therefore, to discontinue. our practice of mak­ing free space available to those people ad"·ertising for rides an~ rldNs. Beginning next week "ride 'n' rider" ads will be treat­ed the same as classifiEd aas. The charge will be 3 cents a word with a minimum of 50 ccn~s for each ad.

The Cooperator regrets the ne­ecssity for this move but we be­lieve our readE:rs will under­stand.

CLOTHING DRIVE Plans are being made for the an­

nual Thanksgiving clothing collec­tion sponsored by the War Relief Services of the National catholic \Velfare Conference, to be held na­tionally beginning November 18, according to Mrs. .James Flynn, ~>resident of the Ladles of Charley of St. Hugh's which is sponsoring the drive locally. Usable clothing, blankets :1nd shoes are requested, for shipment to Korea, for the ex­~llees and refugees of Europe, and the near and far East.

The donations wm be received at St. Hugh's and hours for the col­lection will be announced next week.

The North End PrA will have five guest panelists at ifa regular monthly meeting to be held in the school auditorium on Tuesday, No­vember 13, at 8:15 p.m.

Up for debate will be the contro­versial subject "Progreuive Edu- · cation-Pro and ~n." Those par­ticipating in the program will be Dr. Gladys Wiggin, professor of education. University of Maryland; Dr. Alvin Schindler, pl'ofeaaor of education. University of Maryland; Allen Chotiner, principal of Green­belt Junior High School; Bruce Bowman, president of the County Council of PTA'S of Prince Geor&­t·s County; anrl Mrs. Charles Reed, supervisol" of elementary school of Prinee Georges County who will act as moderator.

Fellowing the preliminary ad­o n·ss('s by the speakers the meat­ing will be open for general dis­ctu;sion. It is hopt·d that parents will take t:1is opportunity to ask qul'stions of members of the panel. A box will be circulated through the a uclil·m··: to collect questions.

(Kindergarten teachers were' granted highe:r minimum and maxi-· mum salaries earlier t..l:tis year; the salary of tht: city manager Js changed by separate (lrdinant'e and will probably be considered by t;h<> council in the near future.)

Retroactive salary payments are estimated to cost abo'ilt $6,000, and will come from an ·estimated sur­plus of appn .. xlmately $8,200. City manager CJ.arles McDon~ld as­sured the council that. probable mu­nicipal needs for the reJDainder of the year can be met by the budget and remaining surplus. He doubten whether PHA w-:>uld object to the salary raise. The federal pay •·aise granted recently, and the clty's· failure to duplicate the preceding federal pay raise would both contri­bute tu PHA's acceptance of the salary increase. ·

McDonald also reminded the council that 70% of the budget goes toward salaries; permitting a simi­lar amount of surplus to go toward· increased salaries was entirely · proper_ The council passed the salz.ry increase· unanimously. \May­or Lastner, absent frem the meet­ing because of a slight illness, in­formed the Cooperator that he heartily endorsed the pay raise.)

DOLLARS ~k SENS~ Hormone'"' - Naktre's Dynamite Working in the complicat<Jd

.structure of all anin1alllfe are pow­erful substances c1Llled hormones. 'Tiny amounts of l!uch substan~es cause important changes. A laek of such stuff can .stunt growth, make men femini"l(:, make women masculine and cau:se disorders of various so.-ts. Many hormones are presc;oibed by ooct<1rs for various conditions. ::>actors observe such patients very closely. It takes the skill of a physician to p!ay with na­ture's dynamite. Poultry Men l'lay \\'itt.. Honnones

Most Qf you read llbout thl' mink that were fed the he•!l.ds of chickeno~~ treated with hormones. , The mink stopped breed·ing. ;Several of the experts who testithld at the De­laney CommiUee Hearings hasten­ed to explain Ulat rnink are espe­cially sensitive .to the sex hormone used. The sex horJnone in ques­tion is diethylstilbestrol. The De­partm('nt of Agriculture warned tlle minlt growers t.;, stop feeding the chiclten heR.ds to their mink. No such warning wn.s given about feeding hormone trE~ated chickens teo human.s. Let us s·ee why this is so. Th? Cat<ie For Hormonizing Poultry

The poultry raiser· can insert a pellet of diethylstilbestrol in the neck of a cockerel. In six weeks the chicken is a fat bird with yel­low, feminine looki:llg skin. He wHJ fetch about 5 <:ents a pound :more as premium quality chicken. Lr; such a chicken safe to eat? This (}Uestion was raised a.t the Delaney Committee Hearings. There were experts on beth sideu of the ques­tion.

~rhose who defende·d the practice :advanced the followirtt." arguments:

l.) The quantay of stilbestrol re­maining ir. the chicken under prop­€1' conditions was so s:tnall that they did not believe it would harm hu­mans.

2) Very small quantities of simi­lar Sl'bstances occur in many foods.

3) The practice had been passe.d on by the Food and Drug Admin­istration. (one pellet for chicken, two for turkey).

4) · Where the pellets are mis­used the poultry can be seized by the Food and Drug Administration.

Case Against HoJ~onia.ing

Pe>ultry - A:!l Yet Too much isn't known about the

effects of stilbestrol. If enough of the drug is taken it "can depress the growth of the children, cause sterility in men, cauf:e cystic ova­ries, cystic breasts, cystic kid­neys and suppress: ovulation". How much it takes to do these things has not been establish­ed. The etfl'ct of tal.dng in small amount:s of th0 drug over a long period of time is unknown. There are SClmc grounds for uneasiness on that score.

Too much isn't known about the amount of stilbestrol that remains in the carcass of the chicken. Dr. Theodore C. Byerly of the Bureau of Animal Industry, Department ol' Agriculturl', just aro:;md the cor­nei', was quesUoned about this.

Mr. Gottlieb: "Has the Depart­determine the amount oi stilbestl·ol determine the am'>unt of tilbestro) Ol" estrogenic activity in the edible Ussues of the treated bird?"

pres••nted ha~ bl't>n that which ha:i bren largdy gather('d by th(' ptJ r­V•'.fOr."

Mr. Gottlil'b: "So th£'rf' is a pau­C'ity of information in that n•ga.rd too~"

Dr. llyerly: "T'here is ce1·tainly a paucity of public info!'rnation."

~lr. Gottlif'b: "'Now, having dc­cidt"<i to tx· cau~ious and having warned the mink farmer not to feNt chicken offal bE'ca.use it might af­f£'ct the reproduction of mink. even though there wli.s no direct pr~f. de you think that the human con· suml'r of poultry deserve-s the same consideration. as far as •warning is concerned?"

A bit of buck passing caru be de­tt~cted in the following ansvver:

Dr. Byerly: "Let me state this. When the Food and Drug Adminis­tration permitted tl1e· use of one pellet . . . I assumed a.s I :Jtill as­sume that they had good and ade­quate evidence in their •opinion to sustain the safety of that !Product That is my position. .: have a high regard for the Food and Drug Ad­ministration. I have no reason whatsoever for questioning the per­mitted use."
