Wildlife protection grows through self control
Wildlife in America is protected by laws and public pressure. Before this protection, species like the egret and buffalo were nearly extinct due to hunters. Now their populations have increased and they roam freely in many places. Some animals and people still need protection from themselves, not just from hunters, and protection should come from self restraint and consideration for others.

Soviet Press Signals Expulsion Threat for Molotov Malenkov and Kaganovich
Moscow reports indicate the Soviet Communist Party may expel V M Molotov Georgi Malenkov and Lazar Kaganovich for factionalism and disloyalty. Izvestia cites Lenin and the 1921 Congress to justify harsh measures up to removal from party ranks.

Soil Bank May Get One Year Extension
The House, after voting to end the soil bank program after this year, appears ready to grant one more year. A compromise on a 3.6 billion agricultural appropriation bill would extend authority for a 30 million dollar next year acreage reserve and set a Sept 15 1958 cutoff for payments. Rep Harrison warned against election use of funds and urged a mid September deadline to prevent misuse. Senate and House conferees said Republican conferees backed the bill.
