HOT TOT. Joel kupperman, seven,
is probably the nations youngest,
smallest genius. He's the mathe-

He can work in his head math

hasn't the least idea he's a genius.
Joel's mother. former school
teacher, first noticed that something
funny was going on when Joel was
FIVE. He had been taught no arith-

in bed. putting himself to sleep by
inventing his own multiplication
tables. When he was six he wrote

SURPRISE. Joel keeps astonishing
the psychiatrists who keep coming
around to examine him: outside of
the mammoth intellect, he is in
every way an average seven-year-
old. He isn't happy, for example,
playing with children older than he.
Smart teachers let him stay in the
second grade but give him eighth
grade algebra to keep him occupied.
When l saw him he was worried:
would he be promoted?
He goes to bed every night at

NOR three days, we French prisoners
had ridden, locked up in cattle car.
i Three days with no food or water,
our wounds unattended, the means of the
wounded making sleep impossible. Then
we reached the German prison camp -
Stalag XVII A - place of the Living
Dead. Barbed wire wall of metal thorns
IA feet high by seven feet wide, Gagged US.
A 3O-foot tower stood at every 40 yards.
Topped with two machine guns, two
searchlights, telephone and soldiers, it
mounted guard over US,
The veteran prisoners looked at US. Our
eyes were sunk deep, haggard, troubled.
Our boards were three weeks old. Our
grime-caked bodies showed through our
ragged clothing Our cheeks were hollow
with hunger.
The veterans who looked at us were
emaciated shadows They were Poles -
tens of thousands who had been interned
for nine months.
lHEY had known torture and depriva-
ton beyond belief Yet their eyes held pity
and compassion for US. They had starved
for nine months Yet they looked on us
and saw fellow sufferers. In one great
spontaneous gesture, they renounced their
precious days food ration. They gave it
to US so that we might eat and be COM
forted. No treaty ever signed did so much
for the mutual understanding of Poles and
French.
We struggled to live. Our camp was
miniature world The machine guns and
the barbed wire held together in that one
place forty thousand citizens of every
country in Europe We were Poles. We
were Russians. We were Jugoslavs. We
were Belgians. We were English. We were
French. Once we had been divided by our
national boundaries and our language. But
now 617 of us lived in a shed 165 feet
long, l612 feet wide.
Each of us was given part of straw
mattress 40 inches wide - three of us on
two mattresses. We slept side by side. We
suffered exactly the same brutalities. We
ate the same revolving food. We burned

to divide us. There are hundreds OF camps
like ours where the Nazls have not
bothered to segregate natlonallties, Thou
sands of men of different countries, creeds
and opinions came together We met IN
adversely and when We met we smiled and
spoke to one another. At first We could
communicate only with gestures. But then
a living international language sprang into
being.
In OUR union we found strength. The
Germans struggling to accomplish exactly
the opposite. have finally succeeded IN
uniting all of Europe In our union we
created a democracy - the democracy OF
brotherhood - for ourselves. Wewere from
all nations and we were doctors. clerks,
peasants. teachers, laborers, artists. In
each crowded hut. one man stood out as
leader He may have been Polish factory
worker, but the important French business
man never hesltated in taking orders from
him.
We had our own courts. our library, our

We stand as evidence that the dream of
humanity can come true Out of suffering,

Stock Prices Narrow
And Irregular in
Quiet Dealings
BY VICTOR EUBANK,
Associated Press Financial Writer


NEW YORK, Nov. 6-Selling pres
sure slackened further in todays
stock market, but buying was equally
lax, and the best that could be said
of trends was that they were only
slightly irregular.
Scattered rails and industrials
displayed mild recovery tendencies
at the start. while aircrafts and
other assorted armament issues in
clined to back water. Small gains
and losses were pretty evenly divided
near the close. Dealings were slow
throughout, although blocks of 1000
to 10000 shares of Commonwealth
& Southern, unchanged at 1915.
helped lift the tWo-hour volume to
around 300, 900 shares.
The war news, particularly the
taking of Kiev by the Russians.
served to keep peace psychology
alive and deter many potential pur-
chasers from extending commit
ments because of the thought that
sudden end of the conflict in
Europe might present unsoIved
problems for American domestic
economy.
Another batch of good earnings
and dividends was helpful. A little
nlbbling here and there also was
attributed to the belief the three
oay slide had put the market in
much sounder technical shape.

silver color.
An order to remove the drab olive
paint daubed on as wartime camou-
f1age was reported yesterday to have
been issued to the Air Transport
Command and to airlines which are
operating Army ships under con-
tract.
While the move appeared to be
limited to ships in transport work. it
was possible that the Army intended
it to apply to all of its airplanes as
signed to permanent service within
the continental limits of the United
States, including advanced trainers
and experimental models. At pres
ent only training planes are un-
painted
Reasons for removal of the paint
were not given IN the order, but
some aviation officials said it would
permit carrying an additional $50
pounds of cargo, add several miles
an hour to planes speed and elm
mate considerable maintenance

Alexandria Firms Warned
On Keeping Streets Clean

Alexandria merchants were warned
yesterday to comply with the city
ordinance on keeping streets clean.
Copies of the code were distributed
by police to every business house in
the city.
Chief Of Police Edgar Sims said
violators will be prosecuted. The
law requires that dirt and trash
swept from stores be put in proper
receptacle rather than swept into the
streets. 1t also provides that owners
and occupants of buildings are re-
sponsible for keeping the sidewalk
clean in front of the buildings and
that no merchandise may be dis
played on sidewalks beyond the
building line.
Merchants also were warned
against use of the sidewalks for un-
packing crates of merchandise un-
less it is impossible to get the crates
inside the store, and then they must
be unpacked and disposed of
promptly.
