Iowa Civic Leader Gets
3 Years in Tax Trial
BY the Associated Press

DES MONIES, June, 30
George Margulies, So, prominent
Davenport auto dealer and civic
leader, was sentenced in Fed
eral Court yesterday to three
years in prison and fined $4,000
on a charge of evading $31 ,294
in Federal income taxes for 1948
through 1850.
Before Judge William F. Riley

called four character witnesses.

Silver iodide costs more per
pound than dry ice, but a little
goes a long way.
Rain makers using one or the
other of the materials usually
charge farmers 8 cents an acre
for seeding" clouds over range
land, 20 cents an acre for wheat
land.
If an area suffers from too
much rain, cloud-Seeders believe
"over seeding" may be the an
swer. They say that with over
seeding it may also be possible
to sidetrack hurricanes. break
up small thunder clouds before
they can brew tornados and clear
fogs from airports.
The theory of over seeding is
that if enough artificial nuclei
are fed into a cloud, all the wa
ter in it will be used up in max
ing very small ice crystals, none
of which will ever get big enough
to fall as snow or rain.
See Much More to Learn.
Even the most enthusiastic
proponents of clou d-seeding
grant that much more has to be
learned about the inner secrets
of clouds before weather control
can reach maximum theoretical
effectiveness.
Various scientists are making
intensive studies of these secrets.
One of the most unique studies
will be carried on by the recently
established Institute of Atmos-
pheric physics at Tucson, Ariz.,
| jointly operated by the Uni
versity of Arizona and the Uni
versity of Chicago. The Sloan
Foundation of New York gave
$15O,OOO for the establishment Of
the institute.
Among other ventures OF the
institute, a radar set will be
placed on one Of the mountain
peaks surrounding Tucson and
aimed at rainclouds in the hope
of obtaining echoes" from tiny
droplets when they grow big
enough to cause rain. Special
cameras will be used to photo
graph the echoes If they show on
the radar screen.
Planes to Measure Test.
Automatic cameras will be
mounted on other peaks to pho
tograph continually the visible
parts of clouds. Air Force planes
and crews are expected to be
m ade available for flights
through clouds to take tempera-
lures, study the size of droplets
and measure other factors with
special instruments.

Bargain Chicks May

WATCH OUT FOR last-ninute
bargains on those baby chicks you
want. Unless you're dealing with
reliable hatchery, you could get
stung.
With baby chicks regularly sold
on a sexed basis, hatcheries often
find themselves with more cockerels
than they know what to do with.
Some are tempted to get rid of the
cockerels in just about any way.
A South Dakota farm woman has
reported one of these ways: Farm
to-farm sales. A woman with a Grip
pied husband came through her
community last spring selling baby
chicks. One neighbor ordered some
with the understanding that she was.

to be cockerelS.
Another trick sometimes used by
hatcheries generally is worked
through direct mail advertising.

But not all are reputable. So don't

hatchery not well known in your

are suspicious. They may be trying

Listing Fees Again

Not so long ago, Montana ranch
er listed his place for sale with a
Minneapolis real estate agency. No
sale resulted. Neither of these acts
would be anything to get riled about
except that the agency charged him
a fee for the listing.
Probably many of you oldtimers
remember this shifty scheme from
depression days. 1t got its start then
when there were far more farms for
sale than there there were buyers,
and still more heavily mortgaged
farms heading for the market. Even
the good real estate men were
finding it hard to live on commits
Sions; the crooked ones took another
way and worked out this listing
fee" racket.
Basically, they charged so much
in advance for simply listing the
farm or ranch for sale. And, in
those days, with so many farm
people needing to sell out, the crooks
made a pretty good living out of it
The racket has dropped out of
sight in recent years, but this Mon
tana mans experience indicates it
may be coming back. So it's well to
be prepared.
A real estate agency earns an
honest commission when making a
sale. If it asks for more than that,
you'll be wise to take your business
