Virginia Apple
Frost Damage
Temperatures Rise
From Low of 33
In Winchester Area

Virginia's million dollar apple crop
appeared safe today amid rising
temperatures which followed threats
of damaging frost that would
have harmed apples as we'll as other
spring crops if the cold wave had
brought temperatures lower than
the SO degrees registered at 3 am.
yesterday near Winchester.
Fruit in low spots of the Shenan-
doah Valley probably was damaged
by temperatures which dipped briefly
to % degrees, according to DR.. A. B.
Groves, plant pathologist of the
Winchester Research Laboratory,
but these apples had been hurt
previously by earlier freezes.
Meanwhile, the Washington area
will have rainy and cool weather
most of today and tonight, the
Weather Bureau predicted, with
the temperature expected to drop to
55 degrees before tomorrow morn
ing. Highest temperature today will
be so degrees, the forecaster said.
Virginia fruit growers experienced
near disaster Saturday when it ap-
peared the mercury might drop be-
low the freezing point in the VIM
chester-New Market area. Grow
ers put their hope in prevailing
winds forestalling the heavy-to-
killing frost the Weather Bureau
feared would set in over the week
end
Winds died down late Saturday,
but the temperature dropped only
to 33, and then began slow ad-
vance back to safe levels. The Lord
smiled upon u.s." DR.. Groves said.
The frost failed to materialize and
very little damage was caused by
the cold weather"
Nearby Maryland and Virginia
areas suffered only slightly from the
| cold wave, which swept down from
t the Hudson Bay area of Canada in

Praising the efficiency with which
they had completed the generous
task" of sending more than 154, 900
Marylanedrs into the Armed Forces,
Governor Herbert r. O'Conor, on the
night of Jan. 81, presented Congress
sional Medals Of Merit and Certiti-
Gates to officials of the States Selec-

Governor O'Conor warned his au-
dience, however, that "the work is
by no means finished
Many thousands of our fighting
men are back with u.s." he declared.
Many more thousands are still to be
released. Each one of those defenders
of Americas rights will require at
least one thing when he arrives
home, to enable him to reap the full
benefit of his efforts. The thing that
each one of them will require and
have right to demand, is the OPP
portunity to earn a living on a stan
dard in full accord with the Ameri-
can way of life.
Until every last man of the Arm
ed Forces has the offer of gainful
employment, we cannot consider that
America has paid it's debt to those
men who took up the fight in her de-
fense."
