Another use of colchicine is to make
hybrid plants fertile Many experimenters
have created new plants by crossing two diff
ferent varieties, but usually the plant that
resulted was not fertile its seeds would not
grow. This is because the seeds of the
hybrids carried only half the number of
chromosomes that were in the original parent
plants.

taken are picked in the evening and. taken into
a dry room. \ dozen flowers probably will

Quick Action Seen
on Lively Issue

Washington. Feb. 20 ms -
Speedy House action TO repeal con
gressional pensions was forseen to-
day following the Overwhelming
Senate vote of IS TO to revoke u
proposal which aroused nationwide
clamor.
The Senate attached the Byrd
amendment for repeal as a rider
TO a bill TO continue pay, and al
lowances OF missing and captured
American soldiers, sailors and ma
rines. and sent the bill to the
House.
House leaders hoped to bring tbs
issue to vote today or Monday and
thus relieve Congress OF what lead-
ers frankly describe as an embar-
RAISING situation.
The Senate, after killing pensions
for Congress. rejected an amend
ment OF Sen. Downey CD Calf,
to pay $50 outright federal pen
sion to all needy persons aged 90
or over, which could be increased
by pension grants of states.
The combined proposals embroil-
ed the Senate in prolonged debate.
While the Downey plan was re
jected by vote of 40 to %, leaders
promised that the Finance Com
mittee will consider social security
revision and increased pensions
later in the session.
The Senate also attached an
amendment offered by Sen. Clark

enlisted men or warrant officers id

Mass evacuation OF alien Japanese

Coast was becoming serious

In central California. agricultur-

when throngs OF Japanese farm
ers and fishermen moved in on the
local Japanese colonies and ap-
parently prepared TO settle down
there.
In the community OF Orosi, the
citizens held a mass meeting and
demanded that the newly arrived
aliens be prohibited from that
area on grounds Of public safety.
They limited possible violence
and demanded that protection be
