Reds Won Safeguard
u. ). Dairen Holdings

Russia has disclaimed any respon-
sibility for how American property
in Dairen, China, Is treated in serv-
ing notice that she intends to con-
tinue military control of that port
until a peace treaty with Japan Is
signed.
This was disclosed by the State
Department late yesterday in max
ing public the Soviet reply to an
American note August IA, urging
early opening of Dairen to interna-
tional commerce.
A 1945 Russian Chinese treaty
gave Russia control over the naval
base of Port Arthur but provided
that nearby Dairen should be free
port under Chinese administration.
The Chinese have been unable to
get into Dairen so far.
The Russians insisted, in their
note made public yesterday, that
naturally" Dairen continues under
the regime" of their Port Arthur
naval base until japanese peace
treaty formally ends the war.
1t added that the Soviet govern
ment "categoricaily rejects . any
attempt to burden it with RESPONSE
bility for American interests
The United States had pointed out
that representatives OF American
firms now are not permitted even to
visit properties which they long have
owned in the outskirts OF Dairen,
and warned that it would hold
Russia responsible for the treatment
accorded American interests there.

.'0n-Farm' School Plan
For Veterans Starts
by The Assesiassd prs.s

A program of combined "on-farm"
and classroom training Of future
farmers under the GI Bill of Rights,
as ordered by Congress last session,
was placed in effect today by the
Veterans Administration,
Last summer Veterans Admins
traitor Bradley ruled that on-the- job
farm trainees who were spending
most of their time away from schools
could not be considered fun-time
trainees and were not qualified for
subsistence allowances.
Vigorous protests against the rul-
ing resulted in enactment of Public
Law SIT, setting up institutional
on-farm training" II provides for
at least 400 hours Of classroom in
struction year for each trainee at
an accredited educational cor train
ing institution.
The veteran also must receive at
least 100 hours a year OF individual
instruction-half of it on the farm.
Veterans in full-time institu-
tional on-farm training course may
receive subsistence allowance not
exceeding SITS month If they have
no dependents, or 5000 for those with
dependents.
Institutional on-farm training-a
part Of the @. I. bill educational
programs not to be confused with
the farmer readjustment allowance
program. This permits farmer
veterans who are unemployed or who
are farming unprofitably to receive
up to 500 a month in unemploy-
ment allowances.

dividuals generally will not allow the
Government to reimburse travellers
for private ocean transportation

offered The law applies to war
