Rubber Plan Okeh

WASHINGTON-(A N P)-The
negotiation of an agreement be-
tween the United States and Haiti,
whereby the former plans to
spend around 100000 to develop
plant of rubber bearing family,
was considered in Port au- Prince
Wednesday of last week.
The plant, known as crytosteeia
is a native of Madagascar, but
agricultural experts say it can be
grown in the island republic. It
has a high content of rubber pro-
ducing sap and natures in six
months.
Some 100000 Haitian farmers are
expected to be absorbed in the

have shown great promise.
The production of rubber in
Haiti has been undergoing in

tee has recommended has not as

Drawn up a few weeks ago to in

get was submitted to the War

VINO approved the budget and
passed it over to the tough budget
bureau where the document now
reposes under the careful security
of the experts in that division.
There is consistent belies that
budget bureau will approve the
items included in this document
now that the position of the FEPC
has been clarified. They feel the
budget is absolutely necessary to
carry out the program intended,
and approved through the series of

of VINO, Fowler Harper.
Mr.. Harper has concurred in most
of the things demanded by the

marry, there is always a pos
sibility of deformity in the
children. I am inclined to think
that you will get over this
fancy before many months
have passed.
o. B. HI have married again
since my first husband passed on.
1 married a man 20 years older
than myself. He doesn't seem as
Joyous" as he did when he first
married. Every woman likes to be
petted once in q while, but he
says that is over with him now.
Now should / just sit around and
take life as it comes and live mis-
cradle the rest of my days or find
romance elsewhere? With all my
experiences I am only Is years old.
When you married this man
20 years older than you, did
you think he could dish out
the petting and loving like a
younger man could? You knew
he couldn't. But you were so
anxious to get married, you
took the first thing that came
your way. You knew he was no
Spring Chicken. If you feel
that you can't continue to live
with this man with what he
has to offer you, it WOULD be
far better to leave him than to
hetray your promises to him.
F. Ii am in school now but /
plan to drop out and go to work
and marry this sweet little girl
am going with. I am a man of the
age of II. My plans are to go
north. Is this the thing for me to
do?
Ans: What possible chance do
you think you would have of
finding happiness if you marry
as young as you are? Your
tastes and ideas are not vet
formed. and you may possibly
fall in love several times be-
fore you find the right one.
Wouldn't that be disastrous il
You are tied down my marriage?
You are not trained to get
very good-paying job, and you
two certainly can't live on love.
Enjoy your youth while you
have it. You have plenty of
time to buckle down to the re-
sDOnsibilities of marriage.

have been thinking seriously of
taking up a trade. Do you think it
