ignation of the center hasn't

A committee is requesting

to plant castor beans in 1952.
he notice should include the
ition of the farm and the num-
of acres to be planted to
or beans.
Mr. Cunningham again points
t that farmers who plan to
rd cotton should do so. The
ttor bean program is not de-
nied to cut down the cotton
reage since the government
asking another 1( billion
les of cotton in 1952.
he castor bean program was
jgurated by PMA in 1951 in
effort to increase the stockpile
castor bean oil under defense
In 1951. about 80.909 acres
castor beans were planted in
ilifomla Arisons. Oklahoma
id Texas. Part of this was un-
r irrigation and the rest dry
nd planting. To further In-
case the supply of castor bean
I PMA has increased the 1952
al to 200.000 acres
fr. Cunningham explains that
for bean is a plant grown for
1 which contains about 50 per
t oil. This oil is used in the
lufacture of military and de-
re products and for every day
lilitary uses include jet rn-
i lubricating oil. a military all-
pose grease hydraulic and gun
til fluids and plastic coated
ibat wire. It also is used in
manufacture of military fab
rics and explosives.
In civilian use cartor bean nil
is used in the manufacture of ar-
tificial leather soap printing ink
and also low-temperature luuri-
cants and flexible coatings. Pos-
sibly the largest single consumer
in the industry of castor bean oil
is a base for quick drying paints
lacquers and varnishes.
In past years castor bean oil
has ben imported from other
countries. However available im-
ports have not been sufficient in
recent years to meet civilian
needs and also assure the mili-
tary uses in the event of an all-
out war.

On Rubber Growth
Production Up
TULSA Okla. Jan. 26 & Rus-
sia and her Iron Curtain satellites
have crude oil production exceed-
ing a million barrels daily the
Oil and Gas Journal estimated to-
day. According to the authorita-
tive industry publication this
indicates Russia and the other
Communist countries have made
great increases in tapping their
oil sources although their oil
output still is far below the
Western world's.
Information available in the oil
industry the Journal reported is
that Russian production totals
around 860000 barrels per day.
Russia also controls about 89.000
barrels daily in Romania 41.000
barrels from the Soviet zone in
Austria and about 20.000 barrels
elsewhere in Eastern Europe. All
this according to the Journal is
about 8 ' per cent of the world's
crude output.
The magazine's survey showed
j world production in November
dropped slightly to 1 1 .954000 bar-
rels daily with the United Slates
off some 140000 barrels from Oc-
tober's all-time high of 63745(10.

and Cambodia.
Every plantation is a veritable'
fortress bristling with automatic
weapons and heavily armed men
patrolling day and night.
French planters and their as-
sistants armed with pistols rifles ;
or machineguns. travel in armored '
jeeps. They keep in constant
touch by radio with the center
of the plantation where motorized
"commandos" always are on alert.
Every plantation maintains its
own "private army." Thats be-
cause when they arc attacked
its too late to call for help from
regular French armed forces. The
initial job of repulsing Vietminh
assaults is up to the planters.
Concentrations of Vietminh
surround the rubber planta-
tions despite the unceasing ef-
forts of French forces to smash
them once and for all. Vietminh
bands often burn warehouses
and machinery and sometimes
try to attack the rubbermeu's
main settlements.
Planters keep in contact with
tlie outside world by using their
own airplanes. Some plantations
have landing strips big enough
to take large cargo planes.
Heavily armed convoys are or-
ganized every time the planters
try to move their rubber to the
outside world by river or by road.
Fifty French planters were
killed by Vietminh guerrillas be-
tween 1946 and 1950. Many of
these were shot as they sat at
their desks by Vietminh who in-
filtrated into settlements. The
casualty rate has dropped since
1950. due to hotter defense or
ganization and the maintenance
of heavily armed patrols.
The Vietminh who used to
specialise on slashing rubber
trees a gang of 50 of them
once cut 120.000 trees now
seem to have changed their tac-
tics. Apparently they realise
that if the Vietminh wins the
war against the French in Indo-
china that rubber would be
needed for their own economy.
So now while some tree slash-
ing still goes on. the Vietminh
guerrillas appear tn concentrate
upon destroying warehouses ma-
chinery killing French planters or
urging native workers to go slow
and cut down production.
Vietminh occasionally attempt
to ambush the motorized convoys
carrying rubber nut of Saigon
but their main objective is not
the rubber itself. If the attack is
successful they burn the vehicles
and the rubber but what they
look for is food supplies and
medicines. The Vietminh long
have been reported short on both.
French planters are proud that
they produced and got out of the
country 50.000 tons of rubber in
1951. That was 8.000 more than
in 1949-50. Prewar exports in
1039 were 69.000 tons.

TO BE SEEN AND NOT HEARD
Sometimes people try to rtmd a prescription to their pharmacist over
the phonr or in his store. "
This can hr both dangerous and unwise. A prescription is a precise
technical document whose lerutf and symbols can easily be misioier
preled by the general public.
Many drugs dial sound alike are as different as night and day. Barium
sulfate and liariiun unhide tor rxamplr sound very much alike. But one
is relatively harmless while the other is a poison.
Latin terms and ahlirrvialions as well as technical symbols often
appear in pmimpiiiiiis because (hey are exact and unchanging. To your
pharmacist tlirir meanings are clear and specific but theyre not to you;
So if you try to read a prescription to your pharmacist you are taking
an unnecessary chance. Hut when you give your doctors written pre-
scription to your pharmacist you can rest assured that you have handed
him thr inhumation necessary to dispense the medicine prescribed.
