BULL SNAKE Frank Cantrall, Springfield, brought the Illinois State Museum a six-foot, four-inch bull snake, one of the largest the museum staff has seen. The average bull snake reaches five feet in length. One of the largest and most beneficial of all snakes found on the prairies and Great Plains, the bull snake feeds almost exclusively on rats, mice, ground squirrels and rabbits. As many as 35 mice have been found in its stomach at onetime. This snake is a constrictor and, although small animals may be taken directly into the mouth and swallowed, the larger rodents are killed either by the snake's coils or by being pressed against the walls of a burrow. The yellow and black specimen, collected near Bath, will be used in the museum's exhibit of "Amphibians and Reptiles of Illinois." SMILE, NOW . . .

Florida vacation was among prizes to winner. m The U.S. House of Representatives has been charged with defeating a so-called Rat Extermination act in a display of whim and joviality. Some congressional detractors imply that the House action was irresponsible and has contributed to recent big-city riots. This article is intended to delineate points which the President, some Civil Rights leaders, television commentators,- and others have failed to report. First of all, many House members inquired why a 60 million dollar measure (including 40 million,, dollars of Federal funds) intended to reduce the nation's, rat population and alleged to affect human health and safety should emerge from the House Banking and Currency committee? Indeed, Rep. Henry Reuss, Democrat of Wisconsin, during the hearings on this bill, declared: "I am all for exterminating rats, but just last year the Congress was at great pains to take some 10 or a dozen public health programs, including programs in the environmental field, and to put them together into one program so as to move toward greater flexibility in federal-state-local relations. It was a remarkable piece of legislation in the Public Health service. . . . But here, having done all that, what do we do but come in with another tiny specific program, very costly to administer. It gets HUD (the new Department of Housing and Urban Development) into the health business." As the views of the Republican minority state, there are presently four federal agencies concerned with the subject of rat extermination and control. Many of those who voted against entertaining the recent rat extermination bill did so on the basis that adding a fifth program to the present federal maze of overlapping activities and programs would be utterly ridiculous. It would seem also to follow that if additional funds are to be spent to reduce the nation's rat population they should be expended through one or more of the existing federal programs. This would avoid the employment of an entire new staff of bureaucrats which would be needed to administer such a 60 million dollar federal program in a recently created federal department. The under-funding of the program was also urged as a reason for refusing to entertain the new rat extermination bill at this time. The federal funds of 40 million dollars for a twoyear program (to be matched by 20 million dollars of local funds) was shown to be adequate oily for 5 percent, or less, of the estimated 90 million rat population, and would benefit only one-fortieth of the American population and only seven cities out of more than 1,800 cities that claim to need attention. This is precisely the type of deceptive legislation to which the liberal urbanologist Daniel P. Moynihan called attention when he castigated other liberals in a recent article as follows: "In our eagerness to see some progress made, we have been all too willing to accept the pathetically underfinanced programs which have normally emerged from Congress, and ENTERS UNIVERSITY Douglas H.

While the differentiation between city rats, and country rats produced som^ amusement during the House debate, still the decision showed that the proposed rat extermination program wis not a comprehensive one designed to affect the entire nation. Instead, it would exclude all but those few areas which the Secretary of HUD might, in his individual discretion, decide to benefit. Rep. Reuss pointed out persuasively that the rat control measure with its generous federal contribution of 40 million dollars might induce local officials to turn away from such items of far higher priority such as alcoholism, narcotic control and other problems. In deference to those House members who voted against action at this time on the Administration rat bill, it seems fair to point out that garbage collection, poisoning of the rat population, and general habits of cleanliness which help to reduce rat propagation are individual and community activities which belong strictly at the local level. Indeed, the efficacy of local control was emphasized by the committee which pointed to the highly successful anti-rat program in the city of Detroit. • Those who have been so quick to attack the action of the Congress, should pause and reflect on the other side of the argument. Upon such reflection, these critics might again disagree with the decision of the Congress on this issue. However, the decision has been made, and it deserves careful and thoughtful analysis and appropriate respect. The flippant, off-the-cuff rebuke of the 435 members of the United States House of Representatives who reviewed testimony, considered the majority and minority reports of the committee and called upon their own experience and judgment in reaching, a decision on this issue is without justification. The members of the U.S. House of Representatives deserve better and fairer treatment than they have received on the issue involved in the Rat Extermination Act of 1967. The Gulf of Tonkin Resolution (Public Law 88-408) adopted by the Congress on Aug. 10, 1964, requires re-study and revision. It will be recalled that the Congress responded promptly and overwhelmingly by enactment of that Resolution when two U.S. warships were attacked by North Vietnamese gunboats in the Tonkin Gulf (adjacent to North Vietnam) more than three years ago. Under the authority of the resolution, President Johnson has augmented our U.S. ground forces in Vietnam from 16,000 "advisors" (at the time the Congress Adopted the resolution) to approximately 500,000 combat troops. Also, he ; has approved large-scale bombing of North Vietnam, the shelling of the North Vietnam coastal region, invasion of the demilitarized zone separating North and South Vietnam, and other military action. The cost of the Vietnam war today exceeds 20 billion dollars a year. More than 12,700 Americans have lost their lives, some 78,000 have been wounded, more than 500 are' missing, and 201 have been captured. In addition, more than 659 American planes have been destroyed in raids over North Vietnam, which cost American taxpayers upwards of 1 billion dollars, and resulting in hundreds of American pilots losing their lives. Meanwhile, many persons have charged that the President has exceeded the authority granted him by the Gulf of Tonkin resolution, and that he should not continue to act without a Declaration of War, which under the Constitution only the Congress can authorize. Still others complain that the President has used the "limited authority" of the Gulf of Tonkin resolution to engage in a "limited war" of attrition which favors the enemy and which is causing growing impatience and dissatisfaction at home. The Senate Foreign Relations committee, headed by Senator J. William Fulbright of Arkansas, has conducted frequent hearings. These have been geared to needle and criticize the Administration and have given comfort to the doves and peaceniks. However, the House Foreign Affairs committee, the members of which are providing substantial support to the President, has avoided any SEPT. 14, 1967 - PLAlft DEALER - SEC. 1, PG. 5 hearings relative to our Vietnam policy. Now a House Resolution (H. Res 869) proposes that hearings shall be conducted by the House Foreign Affairs committee to consider whether the Gulf of Tonkin resolution: (1) empowers the President to carry forward military operations of the current scope and magnitude in Southeast Asia, (2) requires modification in the light of changing political and military conditions, and (3) should be supplemented by additional legislative action. This member of Congress has joined with Congressman Paul Findley and twenty-three other Republican House members in support of this resolution. It is hoped that the resolution may be adopted and that meaningful and comprehensive hearings on our Vietnam policy may be conducted by the House Foreign Affairs committee, and that thereafter this subject may be debated on the floor Of the U.S. House of Representatives, --- The confusion, misinformation, uncertainty of policy positions and even of our war objectives suggest the necessity for enlightenment and responsible discussion of the pnds we hope to achieve in Vietnam and the means by which these ends may be attained. The judgements of the President are hot infallible and the members of Congress as the representatives of the people should not be resigned to accept executive decisions affecting the future of our nation and of the world without participating more actively in the making of those decisions. With public support of his policy waning, the President should welcome adoption of H. Res. 869 to review the Gulf of Tonkin resolution. He can be certain that the American Public would welcome the hearings which would follow the Resolution's adoption. is ,v,.. INSTANT WINTER. . .
