hard time coming through heavy

Many permanent pastures, even
after the heavy frosts, will continue
to furnish plenty of grazing if not
over grazed. Mr.. Thompson said.
Continue to use these areas along
with field grazing until winter crops
get good growth.
Serious damage will be done to
young fescue, ryegrass or oats by
grazing before they get established.
In many cases it will be better to
not Craze late planted fescue this

the time when much Of the fescue
is killed out by over grazing"

Election Of Frank E. Mckinney

lance was like refreshing breeze

miasma. Without any national DO

backing OF President Truman and
the veteran national committee

Mckinney Immediately plunged
into the job OF reorganizing the

to the Washington picture for bust

congress under direction of Telford
Taylor, formerly with NPA in the
department OF commerce. In this
connection the department of COM
merce has issued new definition
and new specifications to define
small business" The definition is
based on the common size charac-
teristics of IL groups of manufac-
turing industries, after a two-year
study, and varies in each type Of
industry, ranging from an estab-
llshment employing 100 persons or
less IN some industries to an estab-

ton points out size is relative

dividual Ichen is made up of two
different and separate entities,
each living its own life. But they
live together in such balanced re-
lationship that they not only act
like a single organism but are able
to reproduce the unit. One partner
is fungus. like mold; it Is the
water gatherer. The other Is a
blue-green or green alga of the
type that forms the green scum on
stagnant water. The alga makes
food for itself and the fungus. Both
the alga and the fungus have their
own proper names, but these are
entirely different from that used
for the lichen.
The greatest economic use Of
lichens, Dr. Llano points out. Is as
fodder. Over thousands Of square
miles of the Arctic. generally above
timber line, are Ichen pastures
used by reindeer, caribou, and
musk-ox. These pastures cover
parts of Greenland, Iceland, Scan
dinavia, Alaska, Siberia, Labrador,
northern Canada. and the Arctic
Archipelago. Over most Of this
area the chief Importance of
Ichens to man is as food for the
wild caribou and domesticated
reindeer. Harvested. the lichen can
be used as food for most domes-
ticated animals. Man himself long
has used lichens for food. The most
popular form is known as Iceland
moss. 1t was sometimes mixed with
grain and potatoes and made into
a bread flour.

diameter than along another.
@: Is it true that the prehistoric
dinosaurs had very small brains?
A: Yes. The bigger an animal
the smaller usually is the weight
OF the brain expressed in ratio

swelling at one end of his spinal
cord.

WASHINGTON was relatively
w quiet despite the visit of Gen
aral Eisenhower, because tn e
President departed for his annual
winter vacation at Key West and
most c. the members of the con-
gress were either back in their
home owns or galivanting around
the world at the expense OF the
taxpayers. Some statistical-minded
complied that one out Of five con-
gressmen was on junket some
where outside the United States.
In the meantime the Presi-
dent, after his foreign relations
speech to the nation via radio
and television, was expected to
work at Key West on his vari-
GUS messages to the incoming
second session of the 82nd con-
gress which c0nvenes in jan
nary. President Truman was
expected to .'get tough" with
the members Of congress and
to demand again enactment of
his Fair Deal program, point
ing out that program was the
program upon which he was
elected in 1913 and which the
people expected this congress
to enact into law. The Presi-
dents messages were expect
ed to be more or less truculent,
particularly his message on
the state Of the union.
During the whirlwind trip Of Gen.
eral Eisenhower, every utterance
of the general on his political in
ten~ions in which he denied any
participation in politics or that he
had authorized any person to make
any move in his behalf toward
running him for the presidency
was twisted to suit the views OF
the questioner.

Churchill Won't Take
ANY Pay for Speech in
Philadelphia May 8
BY the Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA, April TO-.
Winston Churchill, who will de-
liver a major address at the Uni
|versity of Pennsylvania next
month, won't take a penny's pay
for his speech, it was disclosed TO-
day.
Mr.. Churchill agreed to speak at
Pennsylvania May 8 as part of the
|university's 200th anniversary
after conferring with Harold E.
Stassen, Penn's president. and
Robert G. Dunlop. president of the
Sun Oil Co.
Mr.. Stassen and Mr.. Dunlop
flew to London to extend a per-
sonal invitation to the British
wartime Prime Minister.
The agreement with Mr.. Church.
ill calls for payment only of ex-
penses for himself and party of
10. which probably will include
Mrs. Churchill, a reliable source
said.
Major Speech Indicated.
Mr.. Dunlop and others inter-
ested in arranging the visit will
foot that bill.
Mr.. Churchill has not indicated
what his text will be. but sources
here expect his address will be Of
major international Importance.
One informant expressed the
opinion that what Mr.. Churchill
will do is create the Gettysburg
address of the world"
The source said Mr.. Churchill
was deeply impressed by the Stas-
sen-Dunlop visit.
He quoted Mr.. Churchill as say
ing:
II can't believe you two men
would make that long trip just to
invite me. can't believe that
I'm still that important"
To Arrive by Air May 8.
The former prime minister will
arrive by air May 8. He will stay
at a hotel. but has requested that
its identity be kept secret.
He will attend no formal lunch
cons or dinners.
The next day he will 60 to
Washington for a two-day visit.
He may be asked to address Con-
gress.
Before returning to London, it's
a good bet he'll stop off in New
York to see his daughter, Sarah, in
the play. "Gramercy Ghost"
How long he will stay in the
United States has not yet been
made public.
