and pooled their resources to retain
him as a consultant in agriculture.
This means that he will continue his
work with this group. but 1t probably
also means that his services will re-
main available to Bill Cocherill, the
new county agent, in carrying on the
work that has made Loudoun one of
the leading counties In Virginia
agriculture.
Mr.. Lintner is considered by agri-
culture experts as one of the best
informed and most capable county
agents in the entire country. Much
of the credit for Loudoun's leader
ship In farming goes to his knowl-
edge, skill and ability to work with
the farmers of the county.
Came From Ohio.
Mr.. Lintner came to Virginia from
Ohio where he had been reared on
a typical Central Ohio farm. His
first job In the Old Dominion was
as manager of Buckland Hall
estate in Fauquier County. He be-
came Loudoun County agent in July,
1920. -t
When he started work in Loudoun
the county had less than 10 miles
of hard surfaced roads, and the
county Dairy Herd Improvement As
sociation numbered fewer than 18
herds. Since then the Dairy Asso-
citation has increased until now there
are lit herds operating in five
groups.
"Our first emphasis" Mr.. Lintner
said, was to promote improved beef
animal husbandry and the pastures
and alfalfa that seemed necessary
to support q higher standard Of
cattle production.
"As time went on, the rapidly
growing Washington Metropolitan
Area suggested special emphasis on
an expanding dairy industry, and
the modern science applied to nu-
triton.
Promoted Stock Crop.
Beef cattle production was not
materially reduced, but the crops to
support a large livestock population
were promoted wherever farmers
met for conferences"
One of Mr.. Lintner's most i'm
portant contributions to Loudoun
farming was a campaign of soil
testing which he inaugurated soon
after becoming county agent. Funds
for the tests were supplied by the
Peoples National Bank of Leesburg
and the tests were made by the
county agent.
AS result almost every farm In
the county was analyzed and farmers
were given an exact picture OF the
fertility level of their land. Thus
they were not working in the dark
in building up the land to a high
fertility level necessary to support
the crops and livestock.

Always looking for improved crop
varieties, Mr.. Lintner supported the
introduction of corn and other crop

An important step is now under

the editors. Some withdraw the
ads, others ignore the protest.
Once an ad Of this type crept into
the columns Of the august ''London
Times" When this was shown to
the shocked editor, he Immediately
sent a letter Of apology.
One good reason discouraging
discrimination is the British liquor
law, which makes it mandatory
for all persons to be served with
no exceptions. Since most hotels,
and all the big ones, derive much
revenue from their bars, they are
exceedingly careful not to chal-
lenge the regulations. Liquor IL
censes come up for reconsideration
regularly, and if it can be shown
that discrimination is practiced,
they are subject to revocation.
Sometimes the mere threat of
action is sufficient to bring q
proprietor into line. Recently a
fascist group asked the owner of
a bar in the neighborhOod to per-
init them to use an upstairs room
as meeting place. When they
heard of it, Jewish defense COM
mittee served notice they would
protest this to the liquor authori-
ties. This so frightened the inn
keeper that he refused to allow the
Fascists into the bar in return for
the withdrawal of the Jewish pro-
test.
There are, however, a group of
smaller and less important hotels
which do not have liquor licenses
and which exclude Jews. Several
of these are found in Margate, the
southwest coastal resort where
the Labor Party held it's recent
annual convention. When this was
pointed out to delegates leaving
for Margate, they promised to
look into the situation.
On their return, they confirmed
the charges. One of them, Tom
Driberg, an able journalist, men,
toned it in his newspaper column
and followed that up by submit
ting a formal question to Food
Minister John Strachey.
Strachey's answer has thrown a
scare into the hotel proprietors.
He replied that he would use his
official powers to withhold food
permits eff it can be shown that
such racial discrimination is suf-
ficiently widespread in any area
to jeopardize the equitable distrib-
ution of foodstuffs." His food in
spectors are now Investigating.

Is Told Of Upsurge Of
Christianity in Japan
By Cospor Nonnes
Ssor Stoff Correspondent

BUFFALO, N. Y, Aug. There
is tremendous upsurge of Chris
tianity in Japan today, Mrs. R. A.
Doan Of Indianapolis, vice president
of the United Christian Missionary
Society. told the Disciples of Christ
convention today.
There are now 5000 Christians
in Japan, where before the war
there were only 250,O00, Mrs. Doan
said, adding that ,0O0, 900 more are
studying Christianity. The 1900
churches in Japan have been re-
duced to 1,180, she noted, but OBJ
served these have more vitality than
the others did.
Mrs. Doan also tol dthe gathering
that Bibles are being sold in the
black market for 20 yen, while their
regular cost is only yen. During
l946 the American Bible Society
sent 250,000 New Testaments and
329 900 portions OF the scriptures
printed in Japanese, she reported
The veto power in the United Ma
tions Security Council should be cur
tailed. John Foster Dulles, chair
man of the just and Durable Peace
Commission of the Federal Council
OF the Churches of Christ in Amer
lea, told the convention last night.
Mr.. Dulles, who is one of the five
American delegates to the coming
session of the United Nations, made
1t clear his views in this address
were personal and not official ones
THE veto ought not to apply to
administrative matters" he empha-
sized in adding that mo single ma
ton should be free to block an in
vestigation of the facts or the carry
ing out of particular international
policies which have been agreed to"
Example Offered.
In this connection, Mr.. Dulles de-
clared the United States and the
Soviet Union should both welcome
investigation concerning the So
called Truman policy" in Greece
and Turkey and Russia's recent ac-
ton in Hungary.
For example" he pointed out,
the so-called Truman policy in re-
lation to Greece and Turkey was
looked upon by the Soviet Union as
mfriendly to 1t. The recent Soviet
action in Hungary was character
lied by the President Of the United
States as outrageous, most Ameri-
cans do not consider the two poll
cies to be comparable"
