FEDERAL SPENDING HIT
AS INITIATION THREAT
Pettingill Says 'Pump-Priming
May Lead to Reputation
of National Debt.

By the Associated Press.
BUFFALO, N. Y, April 23.-Repre-
sentative Samuel B. Pettingill, Demo-
crat, of Indiana, said in an interview
today that the proposed Federal
"pump-priming" measure might mean
eventual reputation of the national
debt.
The most We can pay off in one
year is about $1,000, 900 ,o0o," the Con-
gresham said. That would mean it
would take 20 to 80 years to retire the
debt.
When an administration realizes
the futility of a long-range debt re-
tirement. then it will take the easy
way out-repudiation of the national
debt through devaluation of the dol
lar. forced exchange of bonds paying
. lower interest rate, and imitation"
He predicted, however, that Con-
eress probably will approve the bill
because the political implications Of
pump-priming are too strong"
Representative Pettingill was in
Buffalo to address a medical associa-
tion meeting.

NEWSTARG GALAXY
FOUND|NHEAvENS
Group Appears to Make
the Universe Lopsided,
Scientist Says.
by STEPHEN ]. McDONOUGH,
Associated Press Science Writer.

ASSOClateQ FTSSS SClcHCc WIltCIs
PHILADELPHIA, April 23.-Dis.
covery of a new and extremely dense
group Of galaxies Of stars which seen,
to throw the universe slightly out OF
balance was announced today before
the American Philosophical Society
by DR.. Harlow Shapley, director Of
the Harvard College Observatory.
This group, which appears to make
the universe somewhat lopsided, vas
recently found during a patrol cur
vey" of the heavens to determine the
density Of galaxies which lie far out
side our own milky way. which Is also
. galaxy of millions of stars.
To understand the immensity Of the
spaces involved, the sun and earth
would appear as two tiny specks on
one Of the arms of the milky way
which is spinning like 4th of July
pinwheel. Around our own galaxy
are many others whirling about IN the
same way.
Used as Flat Plane.
Dr. Shapley and his assistant used
the milky way as fiat plane, or ref
erence point, and pointed their tele-
scopes south of it to make a photo
graphic survey of an area 600 900 light
years in extent near the South Galac-
tic Pole. A light year is the time
light travels in year moving at a
speed Of 10000 miles per second
The survey was made on the den-
sity of galaxies approximately TO-
100000 light years away from the
earth. A uniform distribution Of the
galaxies was found over most of the
area from the South Galactic Pole
upward toward the plane Of the milky
way. However, at one point near the
South Galactic Pole density of the
galaxies was found to be eight times
the normal distribution, which was
the new dense group and which ap-
peared as a long streak through the
area.
No Apparent Explanation.
DR.. Shapley declared that there is
no apparent explanation for this clus-
tering together of systems of stars. He
added similar survey will be under
taken near the North Galactic Pole to
determine whether a similar density
situation exists.
A theory of how such pinwheel
galaXies are formed was offered be-
fore the society by Dr. Ernest w.
Brown of Yale University.
A possible explanation is that q
group Of stars near each other will
group together in bars like two pencils
lying together. Then, the Yale mathe-
matician declared, the stars nearest
the middle Of the bars will begin to
rotate faster than those near the
ends, with the result being the forma-
ton Of the pinwheel arrangement.

Unbiased a series of furious attacks
today against the only two sectors
IN Catalonia where the government

Bitter government resistance,
