Atom Ends Need Of
Lithuanian Buffer,
Mission Official Says

The atomic bomb has blasted the
need for buffer states as q protection
for large nations, Anthony A. Oils,
+co-chairfnan Of the American Lithu-
anian Mission, argued last night in
"a plea for the independence Of
Lithuania.
Specifically illustrating his point,
Mr.. Oils told 400 guests at a dinner
in the Statler Hotel that the new
weapon has wiped out the Soviet's
logical reason" for control of the
Baltic state. More than SO members
of Congress heard the plea at the
meeting, called to organize support
for resolutions introduced In the
House and Senate asking President
Truman and Secretary Byrnes to
free Lithuania from Russian DOM
nation.
Russia abrogated a mutual assist
ance pact of October, 1889, by
marching in to Lithuania in June,
1910, and again went back on her
word when she established q "puppet
government" after driving the Nazis
out, Mr.. Oils charged.
Representative Kelly, Democrat, Of
Illinois, saying there once was justi-
fication for control of buffer states,
supported the contention that the
atomic bomb has changed the pic
ture.
"The only certain guarantee of
peace today is a firm agreement to
keep the peace" he declared.
Representative SABBATH, Democrat,
of Illinois recalled that he intro

Mercury Made Of Gold
Provides World With
New Measuring Rod

Mercury made out OF gold has pro-.
vided a new measuring rod Of the
universe.
One of the major objectives OF
alchemists of the Middle Ages was
to make gold out of mercury. Then
gold was wealth, the most valuable
substance in existence. Mercury
was plentiful and cheap.
Early in the war chemists at the
University of California succeeded
in doing exactly the opposite
making mercury out of gold. Some
years before gold had been made out
of lead, at a cost Of about 81 900 900
an ounce. 1t no longer was an OBJ
Jective to make gold out of any
thing, except as scientific curiosity.
But when atoms Of the precious
metal were bombarded with protons
in the great California cyclotron 1t
was possible to make a form OF
mercury.
The atomic weight Of gold is 1877.
This means that one atom weighs
1877 times as much as hydrogen
atom. The atomic weight Of mercury
is 200. When one proton is added
to the gold atom, a substance Is
obtained which weighs 1913 times the
hydrogen atom but which has all
the chemical properties of mercury
1t is mercury-one of the five or
six different isotopes of this element.
No particular value was attached to-
1t until scientists at the United
States Bureau of Standards in
Washington started studying the
spectrum of the new substance
that is, the wave lengths of the light
which it gave out when it was made
red or white hot.
One wave length of green light in
Its spectrum proved the most easily
measured and precise wave length
known in. nature. Its length was
precisely $3.50 angstrom units-an
angstrom unit being a tenth-mil-
nonth of millimeter.
The world standard of measure
ment at present Is wavelength of
red light in. the spectrum of the
element cadmium.
Measurements experts at the Bu-
reau of Standards hope to see the
new measures adopted by the entire
world as soon. as scientists of the
nations get together.

termination of small nations follow

the independence OF Lithuania after
100 years Of Russian domination.
Il personally feel that President
Truman and Congress up until now
have done their duty by refusing to
recognize any other country as the
ruler Of Lithuania," he said. II
shall continue my fight on behalf Of
the little fellow"
The Lithuanian Minister, Pavilas
zadeikis, declared that refusal to
recognize the Soviet-sponsored re-
gime in Lithuania was not enough.
He asked for acceptance of Lithu-
ania as member Of the United Ma
tions, for a seat at the peace table
and for democratic elections.

~EVERAL months ago a young
woman with a flair for Sculptur-
~ ing sat down in her New York
apartment and worked COB OF clay
into surprise for her husband
somewhere IN Europe.
1t was shapely miniature of the
feminine figure-a three-dimenSiona1
pin-up girl. When the trim little lump
of pulchritude was dry, she painted
il in hues appropriate to the form
divine and dressed it-but not too
much-in wisp or two of black net.
Weeks later this clever little re-
minder of life on the home front
caught up with the husband of Ellen
kaufman. He was, as she expected,
amused and intrigued. His buddieS,
as she hadn't anticipated, demanded
that such reminders of what they are
fighting for be put into mass produc-
ton. Jealousy and envy, they said,
are emotions that no civilian has a
right to arouSe-and they were jeal-
Gus and envious Of Mr.. Kaufman
Being highly patriotic-an in the
business of designing manikins for
store windows-MrS. kaufman went
10 work. She fashioned four more
figurines, all different, and rented
quarters where they could be turned
out in quantity, if not in what a cap
tain of industry would call mass
production
The creator Of the three.dimen-
sional pin-up girls was smart enough
TO cater to the divergent tastes of the
male animal and to invest her plaster
maids with personality.
She called one of them Carol and
made her blonde, suggestive, if not
a prototype of, the golden-haired
Betty Cradle. She sat Carol back on
her Streamlined heels and put one
manicured hand on a shapely, but
