In warmer sections of the country, air layering can be practiced dur ing most of the year.
 Select a healthy branch of plant, IA to 19 inch in thickness. Eight to 20 inches from tip of branch remove all tWigs and leaves for distance of 5 to inches. Cut within this space, about 12 inch below bud Make a one inch in- cision up and inward into branch (see picture above). Dust incision with root-growing hormone, using a toothpick or tiny brush. After dusting, slip strand of spha agnum moss into and around incision. Wrap the film tightly (see above) around the moss ball and make a lock fold. Tie in place so film will retain moisture.

Old Air Loyering Method Explained Grows Woody Plants
 In 5 To 14 Weeks

Home gardeners now have simple, easy way of reproducing many woody plants-roses, shrubs and trees-withip five to IA weeks.
 The method is a modern adap- tation of the ancient Chinese art of air layering, whereby a ball of wet sphagnum moss is formed around a branch to induce root growth. The moss is held in place by a sheet of transparent film, which helps the moss retain the necessary moisture.
 Air layers may be applied any time during the growing season. Best results are obtained in spring and early summer (April to July).

Many Farm Homes
 Need Improvements

Most of the farm homes and rural dwelling in the U. s. are more than 30 years old, and badly in need of repair and improve ment.
 On the basis of a study of rural housing trends there appears to be an increasing amount of re- modelling of farm dwelling under way in the nation.
 Here are few pointers to fol- low in spring remodeling pro- grams:
 l. Check the exterior of the dwelling for repair needs before drafting a remodeling program, so that renewal of weak structures may be included in the overall plan.
 2. Fit the modernization plan to the entire family's needs.
 3. Rather less modernization than to stretch the budget by se- lecting inferior materials.
 4. Consult a good builder or architect who can design an in- terior which is step-saving.
 5. Keep ease of maintenance in mind.
 G. No home is modern without adequate storage space.

Remington Gives Up,
Begins Perjury Term
BY the Associoted Press

NEW YORK, April 16.-Wil-
liam w. Remington, former
Commerce Department econ
omiSt, convicted of falsely deny
ing Communist ties, has started
serving a three-year perjury
sentence pending appeal.
Remington, IS, surrendered at
the Federal court house yester-
day, still protesting his inno-
cence.
He said he was giving himself
up after being out in $1,000
bail because this is the only way
my lawyers can secure addi-
tional time to complete the rec
ord and brief" for an appeal.
Defense Attorney Richard G..
Green said the deadline for filing
appeals briefs was yesterday, but
an extension to June Is had
been sought to obtain certain
official documents. The lawyer
said this could be done only if
Remington surrendered.
Remington was convicted Jan
nuary q at his second trial. He
was found guilty of lying under
oath during his first trial in
denying he ever gave secret in
formation to a Communist cour-
ier and in denying he knew
there was a Young Communist
League at Dartmouth College
when he was a student there.

Small Movie Houses
Seen Facing Threat
In Sd Development

Neighborhood movie houses,
especially in small towns, face a
new economic threat with the
advent of third dimension pic
lures unless the producers CO.
operate to Standardize the new
equipment, a Senate small busi-
ness subcommittee was told yes
terday.
Abram F. Myers. general coun-
sci for the Allied States Associa-
ton of Motion Picture Exhib-
itors, also complained that the
independent theater owner is
being Disseminated against by
the way producers release the
best pictures.
The witness asked the Subcom-
mittee to call on the Justice De-
partment to review complaints
the independent theater owners
have been filing with the depart
ment for more than a year. Mr..
Myers said they have been get
ting only pro forma acknowl-
edgements of their complaints.
Method Explained.
Mr.. Myers described what he
called "a pre-release" system by
which he said the best films are
made available first to selected
theaters IN larger cities with spe-
cial increases in admission prices.
before they become available
for general distribution.
The witness said this "pre-re-
lease" system tends to bleed the
picture white" before it gets into
general distribution. He said
also the regular movie goers who
support the run-of-mill pictures
throughout the year resent pay
ing a higher price when a good
picture comes along.
Turning to the third dimen-
sion development, Mr.. Myers
said there are about 20 different
processes being discussed in the
industry, of which only two are
in actual use today.
The witness said the process
which seems most likely to
emerge as standard requires
equipment which may not be
available for several years in
cities of less than 100000 popula-
ton.
Standardization Urged.
Mr.. Myers told the subcom-
mittee that if there was a will to
develop a standard process it
could be done. He said "it is
odd" that film companies which
have co-operated on other
problems in the past seem now
to deal with each other at arms
length on these new processes.
Senator Gillette, Democrat, of
Iowa, said he assumed the wit
ness was not contending there
is anything illegal in companies
developing a third dimensional
process requiring special equip
ment to project.
Mr.. Myer said he was not
raising any legal objection, but
argued that an enlightened
industry would cooperate in
standardizing new processes.

you do get one that works.

to take a good camera, prefer
