@. Where did the burro originate?
"A. C..P.
A. The burro, a small ass Of the
Southwestern part of the United
States, is descended from the dom
keys of the Spanish conquerors. The
domestic donkey or ass probably
originated in Egypt or Asia Minor.
@. What is the origin Of the apple?
&C. B.
A. The apple has been cultivated
since the earliest times of which we
have any knowledge. References
to it are common in the literature Of
almost all countries and all ages.
1t is probable that the apple as we
now know it in history first appeared
in Asia Minor and from there spread
to the rest of the world. 1t belongs
to the rose family.
@. How much window space is re-
quired for the adequate lighting Of
a room?-J. w. C.
A. A room Is adequately lighted
by day If the window area, includ-
ing sashes and frames, is equal to
II per cent of the floor area.
@. How much does transatlantic
cable weigh?-L. D. w.
A. Deep-water cable weighs two
tons per mile. The shallow-water
cable is much larger and heavier
and weighs as much as 80 tons per
mile. There were more than $500
submarine cables in operation last
year, most of them privately owned.
TNenty-one stretch across the At
lantic between North America and
Europe.
@. Why is a resort sometimes re-
ferred to as a spa?-A. H.
A. The word spa" means spring
of mineral water, SO called from
the city in Belgium noted for its
mineral springs discovered in 1926.
The term is used frequently in
reference to health resort contain
ing such springs. =
@. Please explain the Jewish Gus
tom of placing small stones upon
graves.-W. F. M.
A. The custom is an ancient one
and grew out of the obligation rest
ing upon every person to assist In a
burial. 1t was the duty of the small
group to dispose of the remains of
one of their number and it was
considered especially meritorious to
assist in the burial of respected
person. From this developed the
custom of continuing to help in the
burial of the deceased by placing
a bit of earth or small stone upon
his grave. This is not what one
might call an important law in
Judaism. Orthodox Jews consider
it time -honored custom and
mark of respect to the deceased.

peasants paid the government in
full for their farms.
1t was this property that Gen.
Burt decided that he wanted to buy
and he went quietly about the task
of negotiating its purchase. In his
spare moments. while still employed
as legal adviser to the High Com
missioner, he was able to consun-
mate the deal. And so today Brig.
Gen. Ernest Burt Is the owner of
this 66,000-acre tract of land. On 1t

holds title to the land, but to all
improvements thereon. To get title
to this $1,000 acres and all improve
ments (including even the Chic

paid 5000 down on the agreed
purchase price.

OF course, there was no announce
ment Of the sale by the Dominican
Order. Nor did Gen. Burt rush out
to tell the world about it. But q
Manila newspaper uncovered the
fact and promptly made 1t 'front.'
page news. After a period of en-
barrassed silence, High Commis-
sioner McNutt put on a show of
indignation and Gen. Burt shortly
thereafter retired" to spend his
time counting out his money" as
the payments came In from the
peasant farmers who were required
to buy their land all over again
from Gen. Burt at slightly higher
prices.
But Gen. Burt has bought more
than he bargained for. He has
bought also the increased agrarian
unrest in the area. For the latter
the American people are paying
with good American prestige
Unfortunately, when the waning
American prestige is gone, Ambas-
sador McNutt will not be able to
lobby through the Congress a bill
restoring it. Perhaps he won't care
According to ruInor he will soon
be back in this country in a big
money job. It may be that Gen
Burt doesn't care. But the Wal
Department should be interested
and so should Senator Tydings and
Representative Bell.

Islands have been owned by the
Dominican Order OF the Catholic
Church. Other giant areas are
owned by feudal landlords who, as
in China, rent the land to peasant
tenants on a share-crop basis. In
terest rates on loans sometimes run
as high as 100 per cent.
Unrest on Increase.
Agrarian unrest has been on the
increase during recent years as the
peasant Filipino has sought to re-
lieve himself of these onerous con-
ditions. In the days of the late
President Quezon, the government
sought to quiet some of the unrest
by itself leasing large tracts Of land
and in turn subletting to individual
peasants on more equitable terms.
In 1899, the Philippine government
leased some $4,000 acres of fertile
lands from the Dominican Order
and in doing so reserved the right
to buy, after Is years, at an agreed
price of $1.500,000. Unfortunately
this se-contract was not recorded
It seems that a clerk assigned to
register it was not paid the 25-cent
fee required.
When the Japanese occupied the
islands during the war, the Collabo-
rationist President Laurel decided
that the time had come for the
government to exercise its option tc
buy the land. 1t thereupon deposited
the previously agreed upon 1880.
600 with the provincial court, de-
spite the fact that the Dominican
Order steadfastly refused to sell
inasmuch as the currency offered
was Mickey Mouse money'-Japa-
nese printed occupation fiat money
The government insisted that it had
bought the land. and discontinued
the payments due under the lease
Despite the fact that 1t did not have
title to the land, it proceeded to re-
sell individual farm tracts to the
peasants. About two-thirds Of the

But, it is asked why should Mr..
Truman use his veto to save the
CIO leaders from bill twice passed

do that after the exceedingly con-

leaders are bitterly hostile to him?
