Rumors Mount On * British Princess Speculation Grows On Reputed Romance LONDON (INS) — Princess Margaret and RAF Group Capt. Peter Townsend head back to London today, a city figuratively snowed under by a new flurry of rumors about their reputed romance. There was a steadily growing public belief that some announcement ending the speculation as to whether the pair will wed will be made within the next few days. Townsend, a World War II hero of the battle of Britain, will fly to England today from Brussels on a month's vacation from his post as air attache at the embassy there. Princess Margaret will leave on the night train from Balmoral Castle in Scotland, where the court has been on summer vacation, and arrive In London Thursday morning. The return of the Princess prior to that of the Queen Mother and the Queen was only one of tha developments that was providing impetus for the speculation. Another was the revelation that the Queen and the other members of the royal family will dine with Dr. Geoffrey Fisher, the archbishop of Canterbury and spiritual head of the Church of England” next Wednesday. The 40-year-old Townsend was the innocent part.v ia a divorce action against his first wife. Since the Church of England opposes the remarriage of divorced persons whose previous mates are still living. Dr. Fisher is a key figure in the case. Not only is Queen Elizabeth the head of the church, but Margaret is a sincerely devout church ynenx her. The No. 2 cleric. Cyril Garbett, archbishop of York. >lll be visiting in London next week. He will stay with Dr. Fisher but also is scheduled to to visit Buckingham palace, where he will be awarded a decoration by the Queen.

Irrigation Needs Aided By Records Weather Records Aid In Planning WASHINGTON (INS) — The agriculture department said today that long-term weather records are helping scientists determine irrigation needs Jn five South Atlantic states. It is in this area of normally plentiful rainfall, broken by periodic drought, that supplementary irrigation is making its greatest strides. Officials say that cooperative studies by the department, the U. S. weather bureau and state experiment stations in Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina. Georgia and Florida are showing that irrigation requirements can be predicted with considerable accuracy. Weather records and a knowl-

edge of the soil types of the area are basic necessities for such forecasting. Part of the work, to aid farmers in planning and using irrigation water, involves experiments with electronic atomic-parti; cle counters for measuring soil moisture. Making use of 25 years of weather bureau records, cooperating research workers have uow completed drought-probability determinations for North Carolina. Work is moving ahead on similar determinations for the other states. iHate of evaporation of moisture from the soil, a key factor, is calculated from records of sunshine duration, relative humidity, temperature and wind speed. Farmers can use this information to help determine whether they should plan to irrigate, and whether irrigation would be practicable in terms of the amount of water available and the cost of equipment. The studies also are expected to help farmers who use irrigation to determine the best time to apply water.
