Getting Rid (Maybe)
Of London's Pigeons
For many years London's pi-
geons and starlings have been
making a mess of famous build-
ings. The problem is, hoe do you
get rid of flocks of several hun-
dred birds, quietly, effectively
and without causing an army of
bird lovers to march on Trafal-
gar 'Square??
The Ministry -of Works has
worried about this for thirty
years. Explosives, flashing
lights, alarm cads and spiky
strips of metal have been tried
to dislodge starlings and pigeons,
but with little success.
Recently however, a plastic
jelly has oozed on to the scene
and is spreading along afflicted
ledges al: over the country. The
hordes of starlings that seek a
waem roOStin city smoke are
leaving and it is causing quite a
mutter among the improvised
and unofficial dovecotes.
The substance doesn't harts the
birds but gives a wobbly sensa-
tion urder their toes. In fact,
they feel they haven't a leg to
stand on.
This off-putting jelly is called
Scarer;ow Strip and has been
devised after considerable re-
search by the country's leading
pest control organization.
It is not affected by heat, cold,
rain, or anew and can absorb its
owe. weight of dirt without be-
cOmtint ineffective.
Ladders. hydraulic hoists. dee-
orators' c.-aiz_, scaffolding and
steeplejacks have been used to
spread the jelly around, The
main se .,..g company, Ren-
tOk`.i Laboratories Lti., which
alio devel.sped the repenent,

eras Station, and on
hotels, town halls, churches,
banks, post office's, department
stores and other prominent
buildings. It's even beenused on
a lighthouse in the Orkneys!
In Kent, fainters thought op
the idea of making records of
bird noises, and playing them
back very loudly to frighten off
birds that were filching their
craps.
It didn't frighten the birds. but
residents are complaining be-
cause of the horrible noise'.
in America, birds seem to have
a special aptitude for getting
themselves sucked into air-condi-
tioning intakes of large office
blocks with disastrous cense-
quences for the Circulation
pumps.
Falcons and monkeys have
been trained to catch pigeons in
New York but the monkeys soon
became as big a nuisance as the
birds. ,Bird -starers range froth
whistling novelties and revolv-
ing beacons to acetylene explod-
ers and exploding shotgun shells.
Should Convicts Have
A Chance To Work?
In North Carolina, reports
Time Magazine, 306 convicts are
released each morning and re-
turn to prison at night. In the
daytime they hold regular sobs
ar barbers, mechanics, eooks,
secretaries and farmers. They
pay for their prison room and
board. and their transportation.
The remainder of their earnings
is divided between their families
and a trust fund to be paid each
prisoner when he completes his
term. This program for rehabili-
tation has aroused nationwide
interest and approbation,
in Oregon, Circuit Judge Val
Slopes of Marion County was
constrained recently to rule
that Oregon law forbids use of
penitentiary innlatas in direct
competition with private enter-
prise. The opinion was in the
moot case at the greenhouse at
Danimaseh State Hospital, com-
pleted by convict labour when
the Board of Control voted 2 to
1, with Gov, Hatfield opposed,
to use prisoners rather than to
call for new bide This Building
Trades Council of the AFL-CIO
brought action against inmate
labour, and may seek to pre-
vent use of convicts to build the
women's prison - a project for
which the Legislature provided
no `''.indd.
If Oregon's archaic, union -
sponsored law should be inter-
preted literally, the AFL - CIO
might also challenge the use of
prison inmates on prison farms,
in prison kitchens and libraries,
in shops and other institutional
work. Idle prisoners become un-
ruly prisoners. Convicts denied
work .earn no skills to contri-
bute to their rehabilitation. The
taxpayers would foot the addi-
tional costs of convicts in idle-
ness when there is state work
to be done. But the element of
productive work in rehabilita-
tion is the most important con-
sideration.
The North Carolina program
of daytime employment of pri-
soners in the normal channels -of
enterprise goes farther than the
majority of the Board of Control
approved in the Danunasch
case. where the job was for the
state. - The Oregonian.

Dad! Don't Bother
Heating Baby's Solite
As a leading pediatric re-
searcher, Dr. Emmett Holt of
New York university -Bellevue
Medical Center has tackled many
problems in infant nutrition. But
recently he decided to find the
answer to a simple question that
has bothered him --and alilliors
of mothers -for years. Does a
baby's bottle really have to be
warm?
Dr, Holt and Mies Apo iorda
Adams of the U.S. Public Health
Service fed premature infants
formulas taken straight from the
ice -box and found that they
thrived just as well as infants
white bottles were warmed to
body temperature. "They slept
as well, ate as :ouch, and gain-
ed weight just as fast," said Dr.
Holt last month.
Cold feedings. the NYU pedia-
trician noted, could save busy
mothers 100 hours warming baby
fora:ulas. "With 2.7 million
botse-fed babies a year," he said,
"that's 400 million. hoers for U.S.
housewives."
Q. How can I remove shoe-
leather
Ieather stains from light-colored
stockings?
A. A tablespoonful of borax in
your washing water should help
considerably.
