BY Moj. Thomas M. Niol-

A question from Farmer G. C.
B.. Greenville, S. c.. heads this
weeks @. and A. column: IT am
taking on-the- e-farm training un-
der the CT bill. have leased a
farm for this training and the
lease is going to expire this month.
Will 1t be possible for me to lease
another place or will I have to
buy q farm to stay on the pro-
gram?"
You can either lease or buy
and If you can't lease or buy
maybe you can train on another
persons farm.
One of the things you must
have, to be eligible for on-farm
training, is the use Of farm on
which to put into practice the
things you learn in the classroom.
This does not mean you have to
own or lease the farm you use.
For example. If you have the use
of your neighbor's farm, and 1t
Is a large enough farm to give
you the type Of training you are
taking, then you could qualify.
The farm must be able to pro-
vide complete training in all the
aspects of the particular type OF
farming you are taking up. If
you use your own farm it must
meet these qualifications plus this
other one-it must be large
enough and good enough to give
you o satisfactory income when
your course is completed.
From w. J. D.. New Orleans:
"The VA here at New Orleans sent
me to Tuskegee. Ala, for a check

gave me a four-day pass I came
home and haven't been back since.
The other day got letter
telling me I had to 60 back. or

New Orleans, and If I can't. tell
ma II I have to 60 back to Tus-
kegee, where they have q whole
bunch of NPs. I don't like being
associated with people who are
light in the head"
If the VA told you to 60 to
Tuskegee, that's where you have
to 60. Sure, that happens to be
IN MP hospital, and good one,
according to the American Med
ical Association. but that doesn't
mean it is not equipped to give
you the best treatment and thor
ough examinations.
If you refuse to 60 back, the
possibility is good that your COM

Precise measurements of the
time required for a low frequency
radio wave to travel around. the
world were reported to the Ameri-
can Geophysical Union meeting
here today by Bureau of Standards
specialists.
The waves were sent out from
Annapolis and picked UP by the
Bureaus field station at Sterling,

J. N. Brown of the radio section
staff, said that in travelling round
the world, the waves made at
least 100 trips between the earth
and the ionosphere. the electrified
blanket of the atmosphere from
so to 100 miles high.
Elapsed time was recorded In
ten thousandths of a second,
differing slightly according TO the

Ozone Layer Measured.
Results of nine years measure
ment Of the thickness of the layer
of ozone gas in the high at

is a peculiar combination Of
oxygen molecules created by the
impact of certain wave lengths Of
ultra violet light from the sun. 1t

the earth from the full impact Of
ultraviolet radiation which would
quickly wipe out all life.
The atmosphere's ozone blanket

their campaign against French

Robson Concert Ends
In Row in Stockholm
BY the Assoei5tsd Prsss

STOCKHOLM, Sweden. April
22.-Paul Robeson's concert last
night turned into . political row
The trouble started when the
American Negro baritone sang a
new Russian anthem. The first
verse. sung in Russian. was
greeted quietly. However. when
Robson sang the second verse In
English. which most of the au-
dience understood, the crowd
started a demonstration which for
a time drowned out the singer.
Anti-Communists whistled loud
ly (the Swedish equivalent of
boos) and many left the hall in
protest. Pro Communists an
swered with loud cheers and
frantic applause.
Following the anthem Robeson
stepped to the microphone and
told the audience he could no
longer draw the line between his
art and his political convictions.
