tend until next June. Can | legally
accept this extra" payment if /
do cancel the lease?
ANSWER: Yes, the rent office
will allow you to accept a pay
ment that is not excessive from

able but says he cannot reduce the
rent below what you have allowed
for the apartment furnished.
Shouldn't be entitled to lower
rent?
ANSWER: Under the circum-
stances you outline you would not
be entitled to a reduction in the
maximum rent because the land
lord has rented you furnished
apartment and the fact that you
do not use his furniture is Of your
own choice. II, on the other hand,
the landlord had required you TO
use your own furniture or if he
does not keep the furniture avail

mum rent would be in order.

sold the house rent and, although
my lease does not expire for eight

from his pocket and thrust the
long barrel of the gun into the
space between the hasp and the
wood of the door.
He could hear movement be-

shouting men that reached new
furies of delirium, as fresh groups
threw themselves into the mael-

numbers of the mob increase. he
judged that at least three fourths
of Morgan's entire force were
gathered around the flaming heart
of what had been Oak lsland.
He slipped outside he door. the
powder splitting from his hand
making dark trail on the earth
behind him. Almost running now,
he gained the shelter OF a nearby
wagon shed and collapsed upon
the ground. He held the muzzla
close against the powder trail,
fired. and saw a red streak Of
flame burst from the muZzle and
run like a crimson snake Of death

SEA
SECRETS
o. What material composes the

". WHAT NdtGTIdk COmpOSeS the
''Sword" of the Swordfish?
A. The Sword" or bill" of the
swordfiSh is composed of thicken
ed and hardened bone covered by
hard and somewhat spiny skin.
In the very young swordfish both
jaws are elongated and contain
teeth, but the teeth are eventually
lost and the upper jaw soon out
grows the lower one. Swordfish
have been known to drive their
swords through several inches of
planking when hooked, but stories
of them deliberately killing whales
by spearing them to death are en-
tirely without foundation.
@. Do sea lions and walruses
have toenails?
A. Yes, although they are re
duced to short nubs in the fore
limbs, and in the hind limbs they
appear on the upper surface a short
distance in front of the toe tips,
which are united by a continuous
web as an aid to swimming. Ir
the seals (Phocidae) the claws ar,
longer, while the limbs themselve
are shorter. Unlike the seals, whic
have the hind Ii i'm BIS pc
manently directed backward, tt
sea lions (0tariidael and the W
ruses (Trichechidae) are able t
twist the hind limbs forward as
aid to progression on land.
@. Are oysters ever found ii
fresh water?
A. No, the true oyster is typica
ly marine, although some specie
living in bays, inlets, and eStua
les are capable of tolerating waite
of very low salinity for a time
In such a habitat certain specie
of oysters may be found growing
on the curved roots of the RET
mangrove tree. These oysters ma,
often be harvested simply by
cutting off a root with the oysters
clinging to it, in the same manner
as chopping off a bunch of bana
mas.
@. What is considered to be the
best eating of Florida fishes?
A. Since this is large a matter of
individual taste, it is difficult to
designate any single species as the
"best eating" although the pom
pano (Trachinotus), and the blue
fish (Pomatomus) are universally
held in high esteem. Also favored
are the Spanish mackerel (Scom
beromorus), the groupers, and the
snappers, particularly the red snap
per, Lutianus blackboard, and the
yellowtail Ocyurus chrysurus.
@. How do shipworms burrow
into wood?
A. The shipworm, Teredo nava
lis, is actually not a worm but is
a highlymodified boring mollusk
related to the clans. II enters a
wood surface while still very small
and bores into it by means of a
constant rocking motion of the
shell. The two valves or halves
of the shell are small and located
on the end of the elongat body.
They are also thickened and have
rasping surfaces, and act in much
the same manner as a tiny drill
bit. Since the shipworm's breathing
siphons must remain in contact
with the water through the original
perforation made in the wood, the
body of this creature constantly
elongates as the burrow grows
deeper.

By William Ferris
Assoeic,ed Press Einoneiol Writer


CHICAGO. Jan. 3.-The trend
Of grain prices was downward
throughout 1852. Two words give
the reason: Big crops.
Crops were big in this country
and, equally important, they were
big in some other countries which
compete with the United States
In the world export market. Can
ada had a record-breaking wheat
crop.
Demand was not too brisk. Eu-
fopean countries. probably anxious
70 conserve dollar credits. became
less aggressive buyers of American
wheat than in the previous year
Smaller pig production reduced
that outlet for feed grains, but
beef cattle numbers increased.
Weather Always Big Factor.
The year ended with an uncer-
tain outlook. Weather, as usual.
would be a major factor in this
years grain market-and no one
can predict the weather for a
year ahead with anything resem-
bling certainty.
This years winter wheat crop,
to be harvested in tn spring. was
causing some concern. SubSoil
moisture was not considered good
in the Southwest. But large sup
plies will be carried over into next
year from previous crops. Other
major cereals have not been
planted, but here. too. there are
likely to be large carryovers from
previous crops.
The Agriculture Department has
cautiously predicted, "the overall
level of feed (grain) prices may
not be greatly different from that
of 1951-52."
On the Chicago Board Of Trade.
high prices for cash wheat, cash
corn and cash oats all were set in
January-$2.56H for wheat. So
for corn and $1.06A for oats.

companies, several Of which
sought public funds for the first
time" Mr.. West pointed out.
Trading on the exchanges has
been somewhat smaller than in
two, preceding years and this, to-
gether with higher costs, has
brought more persistent demand
for larger commissions, which
have not changed since 1947.
Mutual Funds Popular.
"Of particular interest to f.
nancial houses has been the in
creased interest in Mutual Funds, u
said Mr.. West. "One Washington
firm made an original offering OF
the Washington Mutual Investors
Fund during the year.
Utility and bank stocks were
in demand throughout the year
Three utilities serving the District
raised their dividend rates during
1852 and many of the banks paid
extra dividends at the end of the
year." he added. There is every
reason to expect good securities
business in 1883"

Drug SuIes Expanding

NEW YORK. Jan. 3 R.-As
medical and pharmaceutical re-
search advances with ever-in-
creaslng impetus into new fields
the production of ethical drugs
will continue to expand. Elmer H
Bopst. president of Warner-Hud-
nut, Inc. said in a year-end
statement. 1.-THE outlook for 1858
is for increased sales of the newer
pharmaceutical remedies, both ir
this country and worldwide" he
said.
