application will be made in ample
time.
The court has granted rehearing in
the Virginia milk control case, which
it has decided once, holding that the
act passed by the 1884 General As

SOUTH'S PROBLEM
IS SHARECROPPER
System Successor to That

Dy lAic hooOlAdlCA 1850
ATLANTA, Ga, February 9.-As the
Governments alphabetical crossword
puzzle bewildered John Citizen when
the New Deal started, the sharecropper
is bothering some parts of the country
What is a sharecropper?
He's Just what the name implies-a
farmer who makes crop on shares
Generally the sharecropper is eX-
tremely poor, often with large family.
He hasn't the funds to purchase the
necessary implements to work land,
and if he did have there is no money
to finance him until the crop is made
Results Are Shared.
So he goes to the man who has a
farm and all of the machinery and
the necessary cash, makes trade and
shares the results of his enterprise.
Many of the sharecroppers are good
farmers, but they have no financial
ability. Illiteracy is not unusual.
After the crop is harvested he visits
the home of the land owner and makes
a settlement. If the landlord is sat-
isfied, and the sharecropper also, they
make an agreement for another year.
The tenant farmer is quite a differ
ent individual.
He contracts with the landlord for
certain acreage and furnishes-in va
riouS degrees-the live stock and other
necessities.
Or, he may rent the land outright,
depending on his finances.
The South-to a large extent-pro-
duceS its major crops under the tenant
and sharecropper system.
Big plantations Before War.
In the old days, before the Civil
War, there were great plantations of
many thousands of acres, operated by
the gentlemen who owned many slaves
and enjoyed mint juleps in the bright
sunlight.
These land owners furnished every
thing. The slaves titled fertile acres
and all products went to the one
treasury.
There was the big store, commits
sary, where feed stuffs were measured
out to the slaves.
The slaves hadn't worry. The land
owners took everything, but the few
remaining old slaves often recall with
tear -dimmed eyes the good ole days
befo' de wa" when they worked and

by Carl Stromer, physicist, of Bin

The existence of this airway is re-
vealed in pale. blueWhite lights from

clouds travel at speeds of almost 180
miles an hour, from east to west.
AS far as their lights. believed to be

do not vary more than miles above
or below the 50-mile level. They
have been sighted over Canada 33
hours after flying above Norway.
Cameras Catch Flight.
While the nature of the clouds is in
doubt, there is none as to their reality,
their speeds and their directions, Dr.
Stormer announces. in the British
Scientific Journal Nature. observations
made of them over Norway on II
Summer nights in the past two years.
Both he and others have seen them,
and photographs reveal them clearly.
From the photographs it has been pos
sible to make fl accurate calculations
of their attitudes.
They are transparent, indicating
that their substance is very thin and
tenuouS.
Cites Arguments
"It seems to me-" DR.. Stormer says,
that the luminous clouds are likely to
consist of cosmic dust coming from
interplanetary space into the upper
atmosphere in the same way as shoot
ing stars and meteorS. The argu-
ments in favor of this opinion are:
THE occurrence of luminous night
clouds after the great Siberian meteor
IN 1908.
1.-THE occurrence of the clouds in
the months of June and July, with a
maximum near the end of June, which
is comparable with the fact that shoot
ing stars appear at certain fixed dates
in the year.
There are more condolences be-
tween luminous night clouds and
meteoric showers and comets than be-
tween these clouds and volcanic erup-
tions and ice-crystals.
1.-The blue-white color points more
to fine dust than to water drops and
ice-crystals.
