Aquatic
Plants
By ISABEL FUCKER
Detroit Times Garden Editor

HERE'S AN interesting letter
on subject Of wide interest.
Says a reader, you write about
house plants. but never about
those that may be grown in an
aquarium. with or without fish.
II is true that | have never
written about indoor aquatics
and this is certainly a good time
for the subject But l can {
write about plants that Will
grow without having fish in
the same aquarium. The fish
need the plants, but the plants
also need the fish.
Here's the way 1t works. The
fish breathe oxygen. much as
we do, and give of carbon
dioxide. This gas would become
too concentrated in the water
were il not for the plants. They
use carbon dioxide in making
food and give off oxygen. SO
one balances the other and no
addition of air is necessary.

Such is not the picture here.
And II seems 20 me you are

the girl 10 drag you back with
her time and again. when your
soul revolts al the prospect OF

Remember Hamlet's observa-

here. The greatest kindness
you can do this girl is TO throw

The field Is adjacent to the towns
of Viking and Kinsella, and is des-
ignated as the Viking Kinsella gas
field.
Summarizing recent drilling re-
suits in the area, the Calgary Oil
Bulletin tabulates the completion of
20 wells since last November of
which 10 were completed as gas
wells, to extend the proven gas area
to total of $4,000 acres.
According to the Bulletin, four
more wells are to be drilled to COM
plete the Imperial program.
The Viking Kinsella development
has been the basis for rumors that
plants using the Tropsch-Fischer
process, or similar processes, are
planned to produce gasoline from
the gas.

English and Petit Testify

Brig. Gen. Paul X. English, re-

Final Arguments Due
Today in Hearing on
Apartment Rent Boost

The "test case public hearing
on the petition Of Park Central
Apartments. 1900 r street NV, for
rent increases averaging IS per cent
moved toward close today as coun-
sci for tenants and owners summed
up evidence concerning service at
the building and the cost OF run
ming 1t. A three and a half hour
session was held last night.
After hearing more than IS wit
|nesses since Monday, Ernest Will
liams, District Rent Control Board
examiner. reversed his ruling that
taking Of testimony would end yes
terday. The earlier ruling was met
by vigorous protests from Edward
r. Haigler, attorney for about 200
of the tenants, who described it as
arbitrary" and as tending to deny
tenants their right to show that
inadequate maintenance justified a
rent decrease rather than a raise
at the 317-unit apartment house.
AS the hearing was resumed today,
A. L. Jenkins, described as a con-
sulting engineer, testifying against
the proposed increases, said he
thought the apartment house con-
tanned every definite fire hazards. +"
He said the only fire exits were
stairs which he said were not prop
erly equipped.
When Mr.. Jenkins left the stand
he was applauded by the approxi-
mately twoscore fellow tenants,
and Mr.. williams cautioned the
audience against further demonstra-
ton.
The four-day hearing is the long
est and one Of the largest attended
in the history of the local rent con-
troll Office.
Much of the argument late yester-
