Canada Leads as
Source of Uranium
Belgian Congo Also Listed;
OTTAWA Takes Mine.

OTTAWA. - Canada is one of
the largest sources of uranium, the
raw material on which new atomic
bombs are based, officials said re-
Gently.
The Belgian Congo is also an
important source and some uran-
ium is found in the United States,
although additional quantities were
obtained from Canada for work
conducted in the United States.
Munitions Minister c. D. Howe
said that Canada had taken over the
Eldorado Mining and Smelling COM
pany sin order to guarantee gov
eminent supply of uranium /. raw
material on which this new source
of power depends" and was con-
structing pilot plant as part of the
atomic bomb development project
Mr.. Howe said the announcement
by President Truman of the first
use of the atomic bomb probably
twill go down in history as one of
the most important scientific and
military announcements ever made
by the head of a great nation"
The real significance of the an
nouncement, he said, is that "un-
believably large amounts of en-
ergy can now be made avail
able for practical USE"
Canada, in cooperation with the
United States and Great Britain,
has undertaken to establish 10000
acre pilot plant for further inves-
legations near PetaWawa military
camp, 125 miles northwest of Of
tawa, he said.
A town site and laboratories are
nearing completion.

Mirror Employed to Spot
Defects Saves Manpower

LOUISVILLE, KY. - With the aid
of a mirror, Raymond Hiatt, an en-
ploye of the Mengel company here,
saved valuable manpower.
Hiatt, an inspection emp1oye on an
army cot contract of the firm, uses
mirror to spot defects on one side
of the cot assembly line while he
watches the other side personally.
Previously, another employee was
required, but the firm said HATS
co-worker had been placed on an
other job in the production divi-
sion. Hiatt received $416 for his
Work-saVing idea.

ing the presence of fair-minded

satisfy the commitments Russia
made as to free elections OF course,
all this does not really guarantee

from it. But our stand at least
won delay and represented new
tendency to avoid the past mistake
of not saying or doing anything to
offend Russia.
The Russo-Chinese agreem ent
shows similar intentions. The pact
is supposed to have been initiated
or pressed by Mr.. Truman upon
Moscow. In it Russia has given
ground in promising withdrawal

Washington Briefs

Here's the way the Department Of
Agriculture looks at the current
months farm picture: cash receipts
from farm marketing about IS per
cent higher than in August; Slaugh-
ter of all types of meat animals will
increase: income from poultry and
eggs about the same as in August,
compared with an increase Of Is per
cent in 1914; dairy product income
will decline seasonally; income from
crops will be substantially above
August, and about the same as in
September 1914; greatest income
gain will be from cotton.
When Congress got together for
the first sessions Of its new meeting
considerable ground work on the
"full employment" bill had been
completed by committee members
who returned to Washington to go
to work on it Immediately after the
Jap surrender. President Truman
asked for immediate consideration on
the measure and got 1t.

cational benefits of the CT bill of
rights to reach children at high
school levels.
The commissions report in
cluded proposals for study of
four-point program: G) job
placement services to assist
young people in employment;
~ work-school programs to pro-
vide to young people opportu-
nifty to combine work and school,;
(3) employment of youth on pub
lie service projects (similar
probably to work done under
the National Youth Administra-
ton program) and. (4) skilled
counseling services with empha-
sis on the special need of those
young people during the recon-
version period.
In commenting on the children's
bureau plan to "move in" on the
guardianship situation, Miss Mary
Stanton, consultant on guardian
ships, said:
Laws Out of Date.
1.-The laws under which we are
trying to operate now were written
at a time when judges knew every
one in their communities and pre-
sumably knew something of the fit
ness of the prospective guardians.
Neighbors, too, exercised concern.
Today it is obviously impossible for
courts to know what is happening
to all children for whom they have
responsibility. A probate court in
large county may have several thou
sand child guardianship cases in
year. The smaller and rural COM
munities likewise cannot exercise
the individual concern that it once
did. Even if neighbors know of
Irregularities, which would not be
likely, they would hesitate to inter-
fere unless the abuse of the child
was fragrant"
1t is pointed out that veterans or
Legion and the Veterans of Foreign
Wars, have succeeded in getting a
large measure of protection for the
property of those entitled to benefits
under veterans compensation, but
even for those children there is a
lack Of protection under the limita-
lions which safeguard their personal
welfare and others, children of non
veterans, have even less protection.
The only way, the bureau points out,
for better protection for more than
a million children, is review and re-
and denomination Of the laws.
AS a result Of the program for
care Of maternity cases of veterans
wives, great improvement in the
whole field Of maternal and infant
care in the country is noted. Many
hospitals which have had to meet
minimum requirements as to facili-
ties to take veteran maternity cases
have made improvements, to the ben
eft of all mothers. These betterments
came as result of income assured
from the federal government. This
was particularly true in many rural
hospitals where facilities were not
up to standards as required by the
these maternity cases.

Profession of War Orphans

Profession of War Orphans
.TEOW many war babies have been
J. L born in your community? How |
MANY children have become wards |
as a result of war casualties? SO |
important are questions raised by
these two factors, the children's bu-
reau Of the department of labor is
undertaking a nationwide survey.
According to records of the vet
erans' administration alone, minor
wards under guardianship of the adj
ministration will reach approximate
ly 100000 Already the veterans
administration has 10000 minor
wards under guardianship as result
of World War 1. In addition, Uncle
Sam has underwritten the cost of
babies to service men, which has
already cost more than $119,00O,OOO
for about 100000 babies and another
10000 who are ON the way. This
money is being used to pay for ma
ternity care, nursing and hospital
care for these infants of men in the
armed forces. This government aid
Is available to wives and infants of
men in the four lowest pay grades
in the Army, Navy, Coast Guard and
Marine Corps. The average cost is
less than $500.
The records show that, proper
tionately, the small-town and rural
areas have the largest number of
babies and that, as Is true in every
wartime period, the boys outnumber
the girls, the proportion being about
107 boys to 100 girls.
The children's bureau has deter
mined that present guardianship
laws are archaic" and that many
children under guardianship are be-
ing cheated out of their Inheritance
and income"
Model Statutes Planned.
The children's bureau Is also con-
cerned with thousands of children
under guardianship who are receiv-
ing survivors, benefits under old age
and survivors, insurance as part of
the social security program.
It Is apparent that If there is to
be any great change or liberalization
Of the guardianship laws, it must
start in the state legislatures, since
the state, under our system of gov
eminent, has the responsibility for
the welfare Of children. 1t will be
the purpose Of the children's bureau
to draw up model laws seeking more
protection for these minor wards and
present them to the various states
for adoption, or for recodifying Of
existing statutes.
The National Commission for Chill
dren in Wartime, which is made up
Of outstanding men and women
working in the child welfare and
youth field, including representa-
tives Of labor unions and farm or
CARNATIONS, has just completed
years study which is In line with
this move Of the children's bureau.
It recommends student aid pro-

IN BOAT MISHAP

MIAMI, Fla, March 18.-(P-
A Sunday afternoon crowd Of 100
persons escaped with new scrat-
ches and a bad fright today when
the sightseeing cruiser "Biscayne''
listed and partially sank in shall
low water at a dock in the Miami
river.
The lower deck Of the double
decked 63-foot boat was half I'm
der water when the craft settled
to the bottom.
Screams went up from the PAN
icky passengers, eyewitnesses re-
ported, when the ''Biscayne" start
Ell to roll over, but women and
small children were boosted safe
ly over the side to a concrete wall
by crew members and soldiers and
sailors aboard.
Capt. William Blount, skipper
of the rubberneck boat, said he
believed the ''Biscayne" must have
struck a submerged log or plank,
and opened a seam.
He said he first noticed a listing
as he was proceeding up the Miami
river to the Musa isle Indian vii
lage dock where the boat sank.
He said he attributed the list to
the movement of the crowd.

Agriculture

RALEIGH, March 18.-{RASales
of chickens from farms of the Ma
ton last year amounted to $685.
100000 pounds, live weight-11 per
cent less than the record sales of
1913, but larger than the sales of
any other year, ]. J. Morgan,
statistician with the N. c. Depart
ment of Agriculture reported Sat-
urday.
Commercial broiler sales are
not included in this estimate. A
20 per cent smaller chicken crop
in 1914 was mainly responsible for
the decrease in sales, according
to Morgan.
Of the total weight of chickens
sold in 1914, IS per cent came
from focks in the west North
Central States, eight per cent from
the South Atlantic States, q per
cent from the North Atlantic, IA
per cent from the South Central,
and 6 per cent from the Western
States.
Half of the number Of chickens
sold in 1914 were young chickens
with an average live weight of
3.6 pounds, and half were fowl
and roosters with an average live
weight of 81 pounds. The average
weight of all chickens sold was 4 4

MEAT FAMINE
SEEN FOR U. S.

CHICAGO, March 1S.-(R-Se,
we're and growing shortages OF all
kinds of meat for the American
public. so serious that they are
..bordering on a meat famine in
MANY parts of the country" was
reported today by the American
Meat Institute.
Announcing results OF a Nation.
wide survey made for the Office OF
Price Administration, the nstl-
tute said:
For the first time since meat
rationing began, many meat items
now are reported for the country
as a whole as being 100 per cent
in short supply IN relation to the
needs of the trade; most beef and
pork cuts reported as. being over
81 per cent in short supply.
1.-The severe and growing short
ages border on a meat famine IN
many parts Of the country.
"The only exceptions to the ex-
IRENE shortage are some sausage
and variety meats but even these
are shorter than a month ago.
"It is true, too, that the supply
Of meat for vital war purposes
for our Army and Maryland for
domestic consumers undoubtedly
will continue to get much worse
before it gets any better. Reasons
for this are: =,
Il. Uncontrolled, extensive and
growing black market in all kinds
Of meat.
SO. Diversion of large quantities
of meat from normal, legitimate
commercial channels of trade
from which supplies for war pur-
poses must be obtained.
SO. Regulations which have the
effect of discouraging cattle feed
ers from taking more young range
animals and bringing them to the
maturity and weight of finished
beef.
q. Government price controls
which have resulted in wholesale
ceiling prices for meat-especial-
ly beef and pork-not being suffi-
cient, in the case of legitimate op-
orators, to reflect the prices paid
currently for livestock.

Substance Was Sermon
OF Christian Scientists

Substance" was the subject of
the Lesson-Sermon in all Christian
Science Churches and Societies
yesterday.
The Golden Text was from
Psalms 1889. For ever, o Lord,
thy word is settled in heaven"
Among the citations which COM
prised the Lesson-Sermon were
the following from the Bible: Il
will extol thee, my God, o king;
and I will bless thy name for ever
and ever. AL thy works shall
praise thee, o Lord; and thy saints
shall bless thee. They shall speak
of the glory of thy kingdom. and
talk of thy power. Thy kingdom is
an everlasting kingdom, and thy
dominion endureth throughout all
generations" (Psalms 145: /, 10,
II, 49,.
The Lesson-Sermon also includ-
ed the following passages from the
Christian Science textbook, Sci
ence and Health with key to the
Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy:
ITO himself mortal and material
man seems to be substance, but his
sense of substance involves error,
and therefore is material, temper.

tai, spiritual man is really sub
stantial, and reflects the eterna

and man is the divine image and
likeness, man should wish for, and
in reality has, only the substance OF
good, the substance of Spirit, moi
