Force Which Makes Atom Seem

new and clearer understanding Of

peak concentration of the secondary
particles or mesoronS generated by
cosmic rays was found at 100000
feet, with the frequency decreasing
at higher and lower attitudes.
He added that the energy of cos
mic ray particles is millions OF
times greater than that which can
be produced by nuclear fission.
Most of the rays reaching the earth,
he said, consist of only one particle
In the experiment, the cosmic
ray showers were picked up and
counted by two specially designed
telescopes looking out of small doors
on either side of the warhead, DR.
Van Allen explained.
Signals emitted by the telescopes
were marked on steel cylinders
within the warhead and at the
same time transmitted by radio to
receiving stations on the ground.
DR.. Van Allen said the laboratory
would continue its cosmic ray ex-
periments with a missile to be
launched October "a.
During the war, the laboratory
was largely responsible for the de-
velopment of the proximity fuse
and two new Navy gun directors.

AFGE 10 Concentrate
On Veterans in 1947
Membership Drive
By Joseph Young
Stor Stoff Correspondent

ST. PAUL, MINI, Sept 20-An
extensive organizing drive to enroll
thousands of new members during
the next year, particularly eX-GIs
IN the Federal service, was an
n0unced today by James B. Burns,
president of the American Fedora
ton of Government Employees.
Mr.. Burns made his statement at
meeting of the AFGE Executive
Council which met here today fol-
lowing the conclusion of the union S
national convention last night.
AFGE officials are well aware that
the percentage of veterans in Gov
ernment Jobs is constantly increas-
ing and the union leaders also have
been informed by top Federal
officials that eventually 90 per cent
of all men in Government will be
eX-GIS.
With this in mind, Mr. Burns de-
.clared that the progressive. mill
'tant program of the AFGE offers
veterans the best opportunity to
better their lot in Government"
Heartened BY Green's Pledge.
As the delegates wended their
way hOmeward, Mr.. Burns and Ber-
niece Heffner, secretary treasurer,
expressed the belief that this con-
vention has been the most success
full in the unions history
AFGE leaders were heartened by
the pledge Of AFL President William
Green that the AFI will throw its
resources and facilities behind the
union in the Ages organizat ton
drive
The convention late yesterday
adopted as its two major legislative
goals during 1947 wage increases
for Federal employees to offset ris-
Ing living costs, and unemployment
compensation benefits to aid the
thousands of Government workers
being dismissed from their jobs dur
ing the current reduction in force
campaign.
Other important resol u i n S
adopted by the convention during
its four-day session included
l. Reiteration of its no-strike
policy.
2. Optional retirement after 80
years service.
3. A Federal cleanup of all Com
munists and other subversives in the
Government.
4. Lifting of the present $4,000
Federal pay ceiling to $4,000
maximum.
5. Removal of income tax from
all retirement snnuities.
Explains Wage Stand.
In asking for general wage in
creases, the AFGE declared that it
was imperative" that Federal
workers be granted "a decent living
wage in the face Of sharply rising
living costs.
/ The AFGE voted to hold its next
convention in Atlanta, Ga.
Mr., Burns and Mrs. Heffner were
reelected for tWo-year terms tc
their respective Offices.

RANGE GROWTH
REPO RTED SLOW

Growth of range food was

cultural Economics. Cool wealth.
er which dropped below the
frost point on several nights
and an inadequate supply OF
soil moisture were causes in
many sections.
Rain improved grass pros
poets in the southern half OF
the state while in the northern
half, continued lack of rain re-
suited in poor to fair feed. Late
May rains gave some moisture.
Stock water is short in local
central and northern areas.
While the state average range
condition at SO was the same on
the first of June as a month
earlier, the northern tier of dis
tricts all suffered a deteriora-
ton in the condition of ranges
with a Six-point decline in the
northwest, a two-point decline
in the northcentral and a de-
cline OF Is points in the north
east. Improved range conditions
in the southwest of nine points
and in the southcentral Of six
points offset the poorer condi-
ton shown by the northern half
of the state.
The condition of cattle has
held up well in relation to the
poorer range food in the north
ern part of the state. In all
sections cattle are in good TO
excellent condition and their
strong condition has been re-
Elected in high percentage calf
crops. There is reported some
tendency to reduce livestock
numbers in the drier sections of
the northeastern part of the
state.
There was some decline in
sheep condition in the northern
sections of the state which was
mostly offset by improvement
in their condition in the south
central district. The average for
the state declined from 80 to
80. Sheep losses since the first
of the year were reported at ~
per cent in relation to As per
cent a year ago, which reflects
favorable winter weather for
livestock.

MUST ORDER FEED
NOW FOR WINTER

Quick action on the part OF
livestock growers to assure a
winter supply of concentrated
feeds is urged by the State
Feed advisory committee to the
Department of Agriculture.
Ranchers are urged by the
committee to place orders for
feed Immediately and to take
it to their ranches and store 1t
as soon as it is received. The
reason for this, the committee
explained, is that ALLEGATIONS
made to the states and to indi-
vidual dealers for single months
at a time cannot accumulate
What is not used in one month
is gone and cannot carry over
into the next month.
From all protein meals manu-
featured in the nation at pres
ent, 10 per cent is set aside by
the government for = ALLEGATION
among the states. Out of each
states share, the manufactur-
ers must provide for each
rancher through their dealers.
Ranchers, hence, cannot fol-
low with safety their old GUS
tom of buying feed when need
ed, the committee pointed out.
Accordingly, all livestock men
are urged to make inventories
and estimates now, and buy and
store their feed.

The twenty fifth anniversary
of the ordination of the Rev.
c. A. Bentley of Crow Agency

Sunday evening service at the
Burgess Memorial church in
Crow Agency next Sunday eve

highway so designated by the
Bureau of Public Roads and the
highway commissions of the
states of Texas, New Mexico,
Colorado, wyoming and Mon
tana, through which it passes.
At the sessions in Denver,
provisions were made for admis-
sion of provinces in Canada,
Mexico and Central America.
The directors also announced
plans to hire a speaker who
will appear in all towns and
cities along Route 81 to stimu-
late interest in the highway and
to collect a two cents per capita
assessment which the assoia :
ton will use to publicize the
highway and its tourist attrac-
lions.

SAYS WEEV1L
DAMAGE HEAVY

Because alfalfa weevils are
doing extensive damage in sew
en- southeastern Montana coun-
ties, o. B. Hitchcock, assistant
state entomologist at Montana
State college, suggests ways Of
controlling the insect and urges
growers to take immediate &C
ton to prevent permanent in
jury to alfalfa stands.
The alfalfa weevil, Hitchcock
explains, is comparatively new
in Montana and this year marks
the first serious outbreak Of
the pest. Counties in which the
pest is causing severe damage
are Yellowstone, Carbon, Still
water, Big Horn, Rosebud, Gus
ter, Powder River and Treasure.
The weevilS burrow into the
buds of the alfalfa plants and
also destroy the foliage, Hitch
cock explained. Since it is diff
ficult to see the insect without
close inspection, the general ap-
pearance of an alfalfa field is
usually the first evidence of
weevil tnfestation. Infested
fields when seen from a distance
appear to have a grayiSh or
brownish color, he said, and
some growers who were not
aware of the weevils suspected
that frost or dry weather had
affected their alfalfa stands.
To control weevils, Hitchcock
recommends spraying with cal
cium arsenate, zinc arsenite or
%arsenate of lead mixed at the
rate of two and one-half to
three pounds to 100 gallons of
water. Ont! hundred gallons Of
the mixture will treat about one
acre of alfalfa.
Infested fields may also be
busted with calcium arsenate at
the rate of three to five pounds
per acre. The dust should be
mixed with an inert material
such as prophylite or talic.
Either spraying or busting
should be done on a clear day,
Hitchcock said, and the type
of treating equipment to use
will depend upon what is avail
able in the locality. Besides
controlling alfalfa weevils, the
sprays and dust recommended
will also help in the control of
! graSShOpperS, he said.
