natural gas will begin tomorrow.
First District customers to be af-
fected are those living in the area
north of Walter Reed Hospital and

in Takoma Park, Md, whose ap-
pliances still are equipped for use
of mixed gas also will be visited by
conversion mechanics beginning to-
morrow.
ALI customers due to be affected
In the near future have received de-
tailed instructions by mail as to
use of stoves, heaters and other gas
devices during the conversion period,
according to the Washington Gas
Light Co.
Burners Must Be Altered.
Proper operation with straight
natural gas demands that every
burner be altered, company officials
explained.
The work will be done by a firm
specializing in such conversions and
will be accomplished progressively
over an eight-month period under
present plans.
The districts to be affected tomor-
row are Nos. through on the
map published recently in the news
papers.
AS other districts are reached,
their residents will receive remind

Used.
Authorized March 6.
The conversion in the District was
authorized March 6 by the Public
Utilities Commission.
Most suburban neighborhoods were
converted last year. The company
delayed the changeover in certain
areas, such as Takoma Park, how
ever, because it decided it could be
done more conveniently in those
locations at the same time as the
District conversion.

major religious-Zionist organiza-

Because of the imminent crea-
ton of a Jewish State in Palestine
and the expected influx of hund-
reds of thousands of Jewish dis
placed persons from Europe, it is
imperative that we train healthy,
'dealistic American youths who
will be especially prepared in vital

come useful world citizens" the

sive one-year training program is
now being carried on by youths
from New York, Chicago, Philadel-

At least $4,000 is Immediately
required, Mr.. Rogers declared, in
order to purchase new housing, a
new silo, more chicken sheds, adj
ditional dairy cows, poultry re-
placements, milking machines, ma
chinery and other farm equipment.
He also disclosed that within the
past few months, twenty-five
