It will remain for me a cherished of the day on which 'or the first time after seven years as a refugee, I was again judged 0 be personally worthy of credit." It's dnuhle-harrclled value lull makes the Quaker loans such 1 good Investment, (lie committee feels. There arc some 400,000 refugees in Austria, all struggling to make ends meet and reestablish self-respect.

They've come "rom Poland, Hungary, Czecho- slovnkinn, Romania, Yugoslavia and Bulgaria, and most arc of erman ethnic origin, called Volksdeutsche. The loans averaging about 13,000 schillings (roughly $500) are Interest-free for the first two years. They are relatively easy lo obtain, without Ihe Usual red tape and stringent security provisions. The committee'places more failh in human endeavor and will than In security, although they are marie on a strict economic basis. Herman and Barbara Roth, a young refugee couple from Romania, are typical borrowers.

With their baby daugher, Hunnelore, '1, they rent a small vegetable farm in Upper Austria, about 75 miles from Salzburg. It was a struggle ivilhout funds, to operatrc the rundown acrongo with run-clown equipment. An 8000-chilling loan enabled Herman Roth to repair the farm truck and make a 'few vital improvements such as building frames to cover the Jcltuce bods. Now he can drive his produce to market. Now his income is adequate.

Now his family has that priceless feeling of self-respect. Better ntlU, Roth can now employ four refugees as hired hands on the farm. And his truck helps a neighbor refugee haul his produce to market, too. So the loan to one family has helped six. Another refugee is I 1 a Bernath, from Romania.

The Russians had made him a force laborer In Ihe mines during the war, and he lost two fingers in an ac- r.idenl. His family is still in Romania, so Bernalh lives in a small room near the land he farms. A Jonnn enabled him lo buy (wo pigs, Ihe slarl. of what he hopes will be a large boost to bis income. Part of the money went for a bicycle, because Bernath works part-time as a plasterer in a vil- age three miles away and the walk was long and tiring.

The loan scheme was begun about a year ago by Spencer Coxc, an American Quaker worker. "We believe," says Coxe, "we have really helped Ihe people we have made loans to.

Man-Made Rain Seen An Gufird For Atom Dnst AP NKW of manmade rain lo protect warships anrl buildings from radioactive or poisonous air are proposed by De Men of Ihe De Menf Laboratories, Portland, Ore.

De Ment has been granted a patent on Ihe idea. The rain would come from hish- pressure nozzles, afbp the ships or buildings. They would send curtains of raindrops falling umbrella fashion far oul over (be sides. The raindrops would trap and carry down radio-atoms loosed from A-bombs or sent out as radioactive clouds. The rain would protect nl.so against poison gases, heat waves, or germs loosed in bacteriological warfare, De Ment said.

Just after they are shot out ol the nozzles, the raindrops would be given electric charges, the better to attract and hold dangerous atoms and particles. By L.
