 Asked about testimony given to the coroner about Mrs. Plungis be- ing his girl, zukauskas sat erect and shouted T said lot of things to him just to have him not bother me any more."
 Denies Divorce Tale
 Zukauskas denied he had ever spoken of divorcing his wife. His wife sat tense as he uttered the words with emphasis.
 He said Stephie had spoken of di- vorcing Tony Plungis and asked him to speak to her mother, Mrs. Mary Stasiulaitis about it. He said Stephie wanted him to find out how her mother felt about it. He de- clined to talk to her mother, but then she stated You still want that police job, don't you, he said.
 When he talked to Mrs. Stasiulat- tis about a possible divorce action by her daughter, the mother wanted to know how Stephie would marry, he said. He told her it was not he, he testified.
 The mother commented she want ed to know first who the man would be before she gave her consent. That Tony was never good to her, anyway" he quoted the mother as saying.
 Zukauskas denied he was jealous of Mrs. Plungis or that he resented the fact that she went ou: with other men.
 During the croSs-eXamination he obviously attempted to show he wanted Stephie to go out with other men, so he could break off from her He said the only reason he inquired about her during the last three weeks of her life was because he was afraid she would commit su1- eide.
 Zukauskas claimed he told Mrs Plungis friends he loved her, SC they would tell her what he said. II that way Stephie would not thinl he had completely dropped her anc would not fulfill threats to turn or the gas, he said.

 According to Clanchette, the vic-- tins were at work on the second floor of the tWo-story structure when a boiler in the cellar burst.
 Unaware of the fire, the women continued at work until the entire first floor was eaten away by the fire and they were pitched into the raging inferno as the floor collapsed.
 Authorities said there had been reports that a man who perished in the fire but that they had been m- able either to confirm the report or locate any other bodies.
 Unofficial estimates placed the loss at $50,000.

of hogs each year. Over half of
Boone oats grown in his county can
be traced to him. His farm was chos-

1942-'43 and "a. In 1913 and "a he
had the second highest average yield
in his state. Good pasture of clover,
bromegrass and alfalfa are pro-
vided for his cattle, hogs and
horses. About half of his farm is
kept in pasture and hay. In 1912, he
marketed 142 head of hogs, 10 head
of beef cattle and approximately l.
400 pounds of butterfat. They now
have 40 hogs, So head of cattle,

Iowa Man Wins
Farming Award
John Oeser Voted Typical
Midwest Farmer of 1915 at
Festival in Yankton, S. D.

1.-THE Typical Midwest Farmer"
award for 1945 was conferred upon
John Oeser of Westside, Iowa. The
presentation was made on Labor
Day at Yankton, S. D., before a
crowd of 1000 people who had gath
cred for the annual "WNAX Mid
West Farmer Day." The recognition
of the typical farmer" was inaugu-
rated in 1912 as a means of honor
ing outstanding war production on
the land. Radio station WNAX and
the American Broadcasting COM
pany sponsored the festivities, in CO.
operation with the U. S. navy.
Each of the five mid-western
states, Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska,
N. Dakota and S. Dakota nomi-
mated typical farmer" meaning
an outstanding one, and sent him to
Yankton, S. D., for the contest.
John Oeser was chosen, not alone
for a remarkable production record,
but because of his leadership in
war and community activities. The
four runners-up, representing four
states, were also heaped with
honors and valuable prizes.
Festivities opened with an Indian
ceremonial staged on the bank of
the Missouri river. Indians in full
regalia played native music and
staged Sioux dances. They also
took part in the mile-long parade
which was lead by the Great Lakes
naval training station band.
The whole days program was
planned to honor John Oeser. The
1915 winner, who is SO years old,
was born on his Westside, Iowa,
farm. As boy he made deathbed
promise to his father to always keep
the land, which his father as a pi-
oneer emigrant from Germany had
plowed for the first time in the
worlds history.
Father Of Eight.
Oeser has eight children. The only
son Of military age is a technical
sergeant with the marine corps,
now in the South Pacific. Two
daughters are graduate nurses.
Since the son Joined the service,
Oeser has been handling all the
work on his 160-acre farm with the
help of two younger sons, 10 and 10
years old.
His community record reveals
that he has been a director in the
Farm bureau, member of the school
board, chairman of drives for the
Red Cross, USO, salvage, and bond
sales.
His average corn yield in 1914 was
So bushels per acre, with one field
over 100 bushels per acre. In 1913 his
average was SO bushels per acre.
His oats average over 60 bushels

Industrial Research
Laboratories Shaping
Future Of American Way
New Products, Processes
Mean Jobs, Better Living

Jobs, incomes and more, better
and cheaper goods and services for
the new era which America is now
entering will depend to a large ex-
tent upon scientific research. The
radio, television, chemical, plastic,
automobile and many other indus
tries are direct tangible benefits Of
industrial research. The television
industry, for example, has spent
more than 20 million dollars on re-
search and it is expected to pro-
vide for more than $50, 1000 new jobs
which never existed before.
Other new products and services
which may be expected now in
clude:
Aviation type gasoline for automo-
biIes at no extra cost.
Factory made houses with stand
ardized parts but put together ac-
cording to the owners design.
Moth-resistant and non-shrinkable
wool fabrics treated at the factory
with special chemicals.
Transparent window screens that
will roll up like shade.
Windows of polarized glass
through which the flow of light can
be regulated by turning button.
Sulfa drugs, penicillin and other
new healing aids, plentiful and at
costs than can be met by all.
Thousands of familiar prewar
achievements will be obsolete. Auto
mobiles, radios, washing machines,
refrigerators and similar products
will be so greatly improved that
customers will want the new prod
ucts even though their old ones are
not worn out. This will provide
thousands of new jobs in existing
industries in addition to those Gre
ated by new industries.
Atomic Age Coming.
American industry engages not
only in applied research but con-
tributes heavily to fundamental re-
search - pioneering new knowledge
in chemistry, physics and other sci
enceS.
"Atomic bombs would not have
been possible except for the expert
IleHtdLlou III dlOIH SIldSHlIlB u
which industrial corporations con-
tributed funds, talent and new tech
biological equipment over a period
of several years. The application of
atomic energy to peacetime prod
ucts will come eventually.
Between the two World Wars, in
dustrial research in the United
States grew almost tenfold, from
an expenditure of 80 million dollars
in 1920 to 23.4 million dollars in 1910,
While indications point to industrial
research growing faster in the
next decade than ever before, the
shortage of technical personnel to
staff laboratories will be a serious
handicap.
Availability of funds will be an
other important factor in the growth
of research. Decline in income from
endowments has made educational
and research foundations increas-
ingly dependent upon contributions
by industry.
