S. Plan For Valley Hail Suppression WE URGE THE VOTERS of Poughkeepsie to heed the sound advice of the president of tne school board, Frank Deuiuo, to Vote "no" onihe referendum We further pledge to the "voters that If the school board attempts to force the three center plan, In the event that the bond Issue is defeated, we shall take legal steps to prevent this. On the many occasions that Mr. DeGUio has raised bis voice against the hard nucleus of the board, hif Judgment has always been vindicated. We can point with pride to the high scholastic standing of our school system and to the many successes enjoyed by tne graduates In our community who are lawyers.

Industrialists, merchants, architects, bankers. and who are well represented in the theater and the arts. LAST YEAR, the S'ew 'York City Teachers association asked that the Junior high schools be scrapped and that a return, be made to tne 4 system or edu cation. Subsequent events in New York City wmi reierence to the conditions mainly In the Junior high schools Jiave shocked the nation. At this" very mo ment, a serious appraisal Is be In? eiven to the administration of the school program and' the subjects taught.

The Commissioner of Educa tion. Dr. Allen, has sent out a directive from Albany to all school districts that all non essential adult education Walter Schreiber. RedJiook appie grower ana president oi the Hudson Valley Crop Ser vices Co op. will be In Wash ington.

D. on Tuesday to appear before a congressional committee and request a federal government bail program In the Hudson valley. The arrangements for Mr. Schreiber to appear were made by Representative Whar ton (R 29th district). Mr.

Schreiber said be will recommend the passage of a Senate bill which would direct the National Science founda tlon to Initiate and support a program of "study, research and evaluation in the field of weather modification." He. said he also will ask that once the bill Is passed, a federal bail suppression program be estab lished here. FOR THE lsst two summers, the Hudson Valley Crop Ser vices Co op, supported mainly by apple growers who in the past have suffered heavy crop damage from hall, have financed their own hall suppression program. However, Mr Schreiber said there Is no chance that they could raise funds for another program this year Mr. Schreiber Said be will tell the committee that the need presskra has been established, and that damage to crops in tills area from hall "has been excessive and has.

materially affected much of our economy." Should the government desire to study hail suppression, the Hudson valley has many advantages, says the Red Hook grower. It has many annual storms of severe Intensity and the groundwork for operating such a program has already been established here. Two years of hall suppression programs have covered ground that would have to be repeated at great expense in another'area," he added. WITH THIS background. Mr.

Schreiber said a hall program could be put in force here "on abort notice If funds became available." Further, the local program Is designed so that It could take any size or form. In any case. It would produce basic information so necessary in that field of weather modification, and specifically In respect to the of severe hall storms "The results from such a program in the Hudson valley aould be beneficial to all weatb fer modification activities In the United States, and provide much, needed basic Information In this for more research In hall' sup science," said Mr. Schreiber, Driver Nabbed in Chase, Accused of Leaving Scene Apprehended by a dry resl icar, and pursued the fleeing crams, in keeping witn times, be scrapped and the money put to better use. Now that the hard facts of lite have penetrated the thinking of the bureaucrats, we can expect an elimination of some of the so called subjects.
