Professor Finds Science Changed Since 1914
Deleware, Ohio. (UP)—The head of Ohio Wesleyan's physics department is freshly convinced that times change.
While getting his deapartment ready for the fall semester's exploration of radar, television, and atomic fission, Prof. D. A. Woodbury came across a departmental notice of 32 years ago.
"A complete and modern wireless telegraph system" was being set up in the laboratory the notice-writer exclaimed.
"It is expected that by use of the local plant, messages may be received with ease from the Arlington station in Washington, D. C., or even from ships at sea."
Oh, What He Said Without Saying A Word
St. Paul (UP)—Maybe she can stand a lot of things, but Mrs. Alice Emily Mitchell can't stand being cursed in sign language.
When she filed suit for divorce against her husband, Ebenezer Mitchell, she said that besides beating her, he cursed her and swore at her and called her obscene names. Both Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell are deaf mutes.
U.S. Farms Worth 101 Billion Dollars
Washington (UP) — An overall evaluation of $101,500,000,000 was placed on the United States farm plant at the beginning of 1946, in a study by the department of agriculture.
It was added that in bookkeeping terms the new figure represented gains of nearly 12 per cent from a year earlier and practically 90 per cent since 1940.
The dollar valuation of agriculture is shown in the "Balance Sheet of Agriculture, 1946," a study prepared by the Bureau of Agricultural Economies.
The study shows that of the total value of the nation's agricultural plant on Jan. 1, farm real estate accounted for $56,600,000,000, compared with $50,300,000,000 on Jan. 1, 1945.
The study draws attention to the fact that the increase over last year is mainly due to price increases for agriculture's physical assets and to accumulations of financial assets resulting from a large volume of sales, at recent prices.
Comparatively little of the increase came from the physical improvement in the nation's farm plant, it was stated.
The study added that financial assets of farmers on Jan. 1, 1946, were estimated to include practically $14,-000,000,000 in deposits and currency, compared with $11,300,000,000 a year earlier.
