new war surplus housing program.
The program will be carried .-out
through a $1,000,000 revolving fund
appropriated by the legislature during the January session. The State
Department of Finance, designated
to. administer the fund, will negotiate for purchase of large groups of
surplus buildings at army and navy
installations, and will sell the separate structures and the fixtures they
contain to individual veterans.

the formative stage, and no application blanks have yet been received
here. They urged interested veterans
not to contact the local office until
further announcement is made that
the plan is ready to be placed in
operation.

Chaney said that the oak ‘is one
of the best examples of evolutionary:
plant development in-recent geologteal times. He pointed out also that
the oak is indicative of the slow
mate change in plant forms in the
past 40 million years whereas animal types have changed rapidly ‘in

expect to place at least 3000 more

planted 2000 beetles there in 1946

eggs 300 yards from our first planting. That’s doing fairly: well. They
