The witness said he could identify
this policeman either in person or
from photographs. He said he had
no doubt that the other men in the
convoy were Britishers but he
wasn't sure he could identify
them.
A few minutes after the convoy
passed terrific explosion rocked
the entire city. The same armored
car, now minus trucks, drove up
to the road block at top speed. The
same blond mustached policeman
shouted from the turret "open the
gate!" The witness and his fellow
guards, who hadn't yet linked the
vehicle with the explosion, opened
the barrier and the car continued
at great speed toward Jaffa.
The witness related that since
the disaster, General Macmillan,
Commander in Chief of British
forces in Palestine, had visited the
roadblock and questioned him.

Electric Appliances Require
Safe, Convenient Location

Small electric appliances require
a safe as well as a convenient place
to stand if they are to be kept in
G I'd condition and repair bills are
to be avoided. A safe place is both
dry and level.
Tables and kitchen counters gen.
orally are safe locations for using
appliances, but the drainboard Of
the sink Is not. Electricity can
travel through water. Therefore,
wet hands, wet terminals and wet
cords invite injury to the user as
well as to the appliance. Water
can ruin the heating element. More
over, a sloping drainboard may let
tie appliance slip and fall
Falls are the cause Of much
damage to small appliances in
homes. Just one tumble can put
an iron or toaster out of order and
spoil its appearance as well. Every
appliance should stand level The
cord should be out Of the way so
no one will catch or trip on it and
pull down the appliance.
An electric appliance should not
be set on a window sill where it
can be knocked over when the win
dow Is shut, or where rain may
come in and damage the heating
element.

AirpIanes PoIlinate
Fruit Tree Blossoms

EAST LANSING, MICH. - Bios
SONS on a fruit tree do not mean
that the tree will bear fruit, horti-
culturists at Michigan state college
pointed out Those blossoms must
be fertilized and that requires care
full planning by the grower.
To get any fruit, pollen must be
transferred from one blossom to
another. This Is usually done by
bees and flying insects, but If the
weather is cool and windy, the bees
will not fly. Therefore, number
of orchardists, in cooperation with
Michigan state college, have been
trying artificial pollination. They
collect the pollen, ripen it and apply
it to the blossoms either by hand.
duster or airplane.
But the grower must be sure that
the right pollen is available. Some
varieties of fruit, which are called
self-sterile, can be fertilized only
with the pollen Of a different va
riety. In general, this is true of
apples, pears, sweet cherries and
plu1ns.
To overcome this difficulty, the
grower may set out his orchard with
varieties that will cross-pollinate
each other. If this is not possible,
he may graft Individual branches
on certain trees in the orchard or
he may set pals of blossoms
throughout the orchard. It also
helps if he provides strong colonies
Of bees to transfer pollen.
A final consideration, say the
horticulturists, is whether the va
rieties are compatible. For ex-
ample, Cortland and early McIn-
tosh apples do not work well to-
gether. Neither do Bartlett and
Seckel pears. Time Is another fac
tor in compatibility, for the varie-
ties chosen must have overlapping
blooming periods if pollinization is
to occur.
