The season on the lowly coo', continues through next Fridav. And there is no lack of the birds in the Basin. Almost anywhere you go you will find whole flocks of them. Herds of them roaming the hills around the stubble fields masses of them along the high ways, groups of them scouring the fence lines, bands of them pad dling about in the canals and lit tie ponds, strings of them flutter ing along the drain ditches. A few less along the llyway would mean that much more food for the better ducks. You can hunt them with only an up to date hunting license, no bii'i stamp required. They are not a mieratory walerlowl but are list ed as a migratory game bird in the same class with the pigeons You can shoot up to 25 a day. A few hints on cleaning them in the field: Cut through the back bone alonj the body, being careful not to cu' too deep and get into the entrails Pull entrails' out toward tail. Cut off tail section which is attached . to entrails. Wash or shake out re maining blood. Head and feel should be left on for field identifi cation by game officers, if any. If you take the whole bird with you at the end of the day it s . an easy chore to skin the birds by merely cutting off the wings near the body and stripping off the whole.shooting match. The eas iest of all the water birds to clean and they have proportionately more meal for their weight than any other. Most of them will av erage around two pounds. We have run a few recipes in the past. Another simple one Is Southern Fried Coot. Roll pieces of coot in well sea soned flour or bread crumhs. Fry In hot deep fat (365-380 degree. about ten minutes or until brown .Fry a few pieces at a time and remove Ihcm to a covered frying pan or Dutch oven. Bake slowly (300 degrees) for 25 to 30 minutes For shallow-fat frying cover ho! lorn of kettle with one to two inches of fat and proceed as for deep fat frying, aiming when browned on under side Serve witn cream gravy, candied sweet pola toes, spinach, crisp relishes, south ern spoon bread and cranberry jtlly. Then, as the old hunter says "If you've never tried It, don't knock it." If anyone wishes more diverse or fancier recipes drop in and I'll pass 'cm along. Only have one copy of the reci pes or I'd mail 'em out. Along the game trail: Down in the deep south, Sav.mnah, Geor gia, to be exact, the local sports men are putting up a howl that is long, loud and plaintive. They say that hundreds of aero:, at nearby Fort Stewart, a mili tary reservation, have heen sowed to wild (Kits. This is attracting all the dra in the country to the area. And only military personnel are al lowed to hunt in the area So you can readily see that Ihi : business of hunting is one that car ries a good deal of weight with it. Last week the holler went up in England. Today it is Georgia Soon you'll hear the wail from other sections. And it will get louder as more and more ol the hunl'ng areas are either gobbled up by a greedy mili tary or turned into subdivisions id build leaky-rooted houses on And as more and more individuals turn lo the "great outdoors' lor recre ation. Of which hunting is a part. High time to do s.ime serious thinking. In the meantime, lei's ga on'. and shoot a coot.

In Cuba, Castro and his firm? squads are busy consolidating the rebels hold on the government The elected assembly has been dissolved and the government will rule by decree. They are widely quoted as hav- ing said they give the executed victims "fair" trials. Castro has even boasted that in Cuba. "We havo more democracy than in the United States." But the facts should serve to cram the words bark down Cas tro's throat. How would the people of this country have felt, if. in 1952 after coming to power, the Repub Means promptly lined up all the top echelon Democrats against the wall and eliminated them with a firing squad burst. We'd all have been pretty horn lied, and from that point on we'1 try to make certain that we were on the winning side of any elec tion or any revolt. To be on the losing side would be to stand be fore a firing squad. I admit that it might be one way lo make certain that yo'J win all future elections, and it might be a little hard on the party that loses the election, and, if that is the case, you don't mind if I register as an Independent, do you? Seriously, though, this incident alone, indicates how much we are out-of-louch with the thinking of other nations of the world. In Russia, they subscrihe to the same philosophy. There is only one party, the Communist party. When they came to power, they did it the same way" as Castro, by elimi nating all their opposition either via the firing squad or via a one way trip to Siberia. The same is true of other dic tatorships throughout the world. Hitler perpetuated his power by killing millions of innocent people. Libeling it as for "the good of the German race." The fted Chinese admittedly have executed many millions of Chinese since they took over. They hold the firing squad as the rul ing sword. If there were any oilier proof needed that the Unjled States is truly the "Christian" nation of the world, this should supply it. The awful vengeance of the Old Testament compares with the love of the New Testament as Cuba ompares with the United Stales To me, events in Cuba are sick ening, indeed, in this day and ago of so-called enlightened people. Yellows No. 1, No. 2. No. 3 and No. 4 have come under the dis approving eye of the Food and Drug Administration and they are expected to be ruled out. Personally, we can think of no lood or cosmetic containing artifi cial yellow coloring that we would miss. But orange is something else again. Traditionally, grandmothers have added a little box of candied or ange peel to the Christmas goodies sent to their sons' and daughters' families. (We don't know exactly why it has to be grandmother; but that's the way :.t is). , If oranges aren t orange any more, there is going to be a serious loss at Christmastime as well as the remainder of the year. And that loss will be felt by three and four generations now living. Buy a bag of green oranges? Never. Maybe what will happen is that oranges, as fresh fruit, will disap pear from our marked and every body will be reduced to drinking his daily orange from a can or reconstituted frozen orange juice At least, nature has made sure the inside of the orange is still orange. firing Stjuiid By FLOYD L. WYNNE There is a strange, trasic com parison between the Cuban "bloo,! bath" and the United Stairs elec (ions. In Cuba, firing squads are busy liquidating the supporters of th fallen Batista government. After 20 years in power, the Ba tista government fled the country under pressure of the rebel a'- tacks, and Fidel Castro and his motley crew took over. In 1352, the Republicans cap tured the While House alter the Democrats had occupied It for 20 years. But there, any similarity end thank goodness.

The federal Food and Drug Ad ministration wants to ban Red No 32, the coal tar color which is used to put a deep orange color into the peel of Florida oranges Oranges have always been or ange. Orange is a standard. It is a positive. It is a thing. And now it appear.; that maybe it isn't so at all. Congress is being'asked by Wel fare Secretary Fleming to pass new legislation adding further control over the use of color additives in food, drugs and cosmetics. Nino- teen coal tar colors were on the original permitted list. Only 12 of the total are still deemed harm less. Florida orange growers will be permitted to use lied No. 32 only until March 1, when a tempor ary law permitting its use expires. Then, it is reported, perhaps temporarily they will he permitted to use Citrus Red No. 2, another coal tar color, lo tint their oranges while further research continues. in American tour was the com plaint this country had played much too cozy with Latin Ameri can dictators. In August President Eisenhower sent his brother, Dr. Milton Eisen hower, president of Johns Hop kins University, to Latin America to look over the situation and re port on how this country could im prove its relations. Dr. Eisenhower took months preparing that report. He sent it to the President, Dec. 27, just a few days before Castro threw out Batista. Among other things Dr. Eisen hower urged a stiffer policy to ward Latin American dictators by suggesting that while the United States should embrace democrat ic regimes it should give dictator only "a formal handshake.". On Jan. 7, six days after Ba tista fled, the United States gave Castro's provisional government recognition. This fast action may come un der questioning in Congress par ticularly if relations with Castro grow worse since it was taken before there was full time to see how the Castro wind blew. They'll Do It Every Time By Jimmy Hatlo It's nice to m BuT-wu(?P4-wur?(j4 .0 BE 4BLE TO I Anay NICE- T.

Castro's long fight against the dictatorship of Fulgencio Batista reached .its climax Jan. 1 when Batista fled. Castro's announced purpose in overthrowing Batista was to restore democracy to Luna. . What he has actually imposed at least temporarily is anothe- dictatorship. His government has dismissed Congress and an nounced it will rule by decree for 18 months, after which elections can be held. No observer in Washington can say whether such delay is justi fied or not. But Castro's tactics since his victory in approving mass execu tion by firing squads of Batista followers and in his violent at tacks on the United States raije questions. Was his long fight against Ba tista simply that of a patriotic but emotional man who lacked the vision to plan long-range for orderly government Or was he practical enough to do such plan ning His angry outbursts against the United States seemed prompted by American criticism of the mass executions. He repeated charges quickly denied by the State Department that the United States provided arms aud aid to Baiista's defeat ed forces. But Castro went turther than merely attacking American pol icy. He said: "We are more dem ocratic than President Eisenhow er. W'c are more democratic than John Foster Dulles. There is mor liberty here than in the United States." Castro's fatigue, his anger at criticism, or just poor judgment may have heen the root of thes bitter attacks. If the State Department seems in the light of Castro's present perlormancc lo have been hasty in granting him recognition, at least this country had been al ready made self-conscious abou1 its dealings with Latin American dictators. One of the reasons given las! spring for the stoning and spii ting inflicted on Vice-President Richard M. Nixon during his Lai Vt'ts M.-iil ling Approximately 72,000 compensa tion and pension cases, added to Ihe rolls of the Veterans Adminis tration after World War II, have required adjustment in the claims review now underway, it was re ported recently. The actual number of adjust ments is 71,958 and is cumulative to September 30, 1958, VA an nounced. It involves 9.1 per cent of the 791,372 cases reviewed to that dale. Included in the adjustments were 7,638 instances of increases in monthly payments to reflect a wor sening in degree of disability. Im provement in the degree of disa bility with accompanying decreas es in monthly payments occurred in 27,179 cases. There were 37,141 terminations of payment. Breaking down this last figur of 37.141 terminations, 23,027 were ended primarily because of an im provement in disability to a level no longer justifying monetary awards. The remaining 14,114 were terminated after VA found "clear and unmistakable error" in asso ciating the disability with the pe riod of military service. Of the 23,027 veterans whose pay ments ceased because of an im provement in disability, service connection was confirmed in al most all cases and these veteran; may be returned to the compensa tion rolls if their service-connected ailments again become disab ling, VA said. Veterans "involved in adverse changes have the right of appeal to the Board of Veterans Appeals if they believe that the changes were not justified. QUESTION OF THE WEEK: Q Now that it is legally pos sible lo convert my Korean GI term insurance lo a porrnan.cn.? plan, I intend to do so. But what about some of the other advantages of permanent plan GI insurance? Will I be able to borrow on it? A Yes, provided your policy is in full force, under the law. Tha policy also will have other advan tages of permanent plan insurance, such as a paid up and a casn surrender value, and, of course, a stable premium rate.
