There's quite a lot of it. But let's skip the English scan dals and yesterday's slock market skid and the proposed ban on A-bomb testing and talk about chickens. A Santa Rosa poultryman has come up with an invention that just might have REVOLUTION ARY results. His name is Schrinor, and yes terday he demonstrated h i s startling new device at a press conference at the St. Francis ho tel in San Francisco. In its basic concept, it is sim pleconsisting merely of ROSE- COLORED contact lenses. Chick- ens, he explained to his audience, are Drcttv much like people. With all the stresses and strains of modern life, they have emotional problems. They eat too much. They stop laying eggs. And often they be come so belligerent that they PECK EACH OTHER TO DEATH. But. he claimed, h i s lenses, which his new vision-control re search firm will soon put into mass production, will end a 1 1 thai , . I To demonstrate, he introduced a pair of red-eyed gamecocks- both wearing tne lenses, nicy paid no attention to each other In fact, those present at tne ncm onstration agree, they were down right friendly. But- When he removed the contact lenses, the birds TORE EACH OTHER, and had to he pulled apart to stop the fight. He then got similar results nn uiu-i er chickens, proving that the orig-1 inal pair weren't merely trained Thi. wav K works, lie saio. is ne way n " , ; that the red lenses make it nara for the chickens to recognize'" n-kirh ovciirs tnem. t ne len-cs also distort their vision jo that they can t recognize stran gers.

It might be worth while to shanghai Old Kroosh and Old Man and some of the other prime trouble-makers of this planet and equip them wilh Mr. Schrincr's lenses. If it worked, it could revolu tionize the world.

This fundamental philosophy of how to deal with the Russians in a nuclear age. stated Mon- day by President Kennedy in a ma ior srjecch. is expected by dip lomats to be more prominently recorded in history than his an- nouncements on nuclear testing The last few hundred words of Kennedy's speech were devoted to . announcing that agreement had been reached for high level U.S.- British-Soviet nuclear test ban ' talks in Moscow next month and that the United States would not i (conduct atmospneric tests unless otliers do first But most of the address, deliv ered at American University, was a detailed explanation to the Kremlin, to the world and to the American public of the policies the Kennedy administration is at tempting Ul luuuw iuwbiu nui9ia.
