HARLEM CHURCHES PACKED
FOR WATCH NIGHT SERVICES
BY ST. CLAIR KIRToN

NEW YORK-When one con-
siders the many biased, unwar-
ranted reports on life in Har-
lem-Manhattan's most crowd
ed residential district-it is
truly gratifying to find reli-
gious activities in the conlmun-
ity being exerted in such a Wig
orouS manner, and on a par, ii
not ahead, Of similar sections of
the country.
Such has been the experience
Of this writer, forduring the
waning hours. of 1914, when
revelry all over the country, as
usual, was at its peak, churches
of the various denominations
were packed to capacity with
thousands of faithful souls who
were anxious to be in a rei-
gious environment at the first
stroke of the new year.
Speaking at st. Ambrose
Church, the Rev. Father E. E.
Durant, its rector, declared that
"the gifts of the Magis to the
Infant Jesus should be a con-
slant reminder to Christians to
offer themselves to Christ and
the cause for which He came
into the world"
The musical program included
the Communion service in E
Flat by Eyrie; Behold I bring
you good tidings by Shipper;
two soprano solos; and Goods
Altar" at st. Ambrose, hymn
by st. Clair Kirton, which was
written for the dedication OF
the new Chancel and gothic Al
tar of the church, and which
was first published in the Oct.
IA edition of THE GUARDIAN.
A rare distinction was ac-
corded MIR. Kirton, who, being
in the vested choir, joined in
the singing Of the hymn. The
program was under the direction
of Mr.. Gladstone Marshall, the
organist and choirmaster Of the
church.

Segregation: It's Vicious
Purpose

Segregation is the special
American means of branding
colored Americans as the in
feriors of interiors in public
status.
when the white South
found itself confronted with
the federal status of equality
for colored people, the former
slaves-equality of citizen
slGp, of freedom, of franchise
rights, backed by the nation
al government - it selected
the denial of presence and of
service in places opened for
public patronage as the one
great way to brand colored
people as having been a slave
race and make them forever
the scorn of civil society.
"It is a very effective meas
ure. Colored people are trail
tors to themselves to aid and
abet the idea by self-segrega-
ton"

Soviets Play Fox On Bomb
 Reds Express
 Little Concern
BY HENRY SHAPIRO

United Press Staff Correspondent
 Moscow, Oct. 30- (UP) Talks with several prominent Soviet scien. lists left this correspondent with the impression today that the RuS- sians are confident they will develop the atomic bomb independently, If they have not already done so.
 The impression was growing here that the Russians were considerably less concerned about the atomic bomb than early reports indicated.
 The following argument Is heard frequently among the Russians: It will not be long before all major powers have the atomic bomb
 The weapon is so terrible that, given the ability of potentially con- flicting powers to neutralize or de- stroy one another, 1t probably will never be used in warfare.
 It is pointed out that belligerents refrained from the use of chemical warfare in the second World War, although all could have resorted to 1t.
 Scientific literature in the Soviet Union was replete with discussion at atomic fission many years before the war. Foreign scientists, includ- ing American and British, attend- ing sessions of academy scientists last Summer were impressed with the strides Soviet physicists and scientific organization and rich re- sources, including uranium deposits and unlimited funds which the state can devote to this purpose, any ap- preciable Russian lag appeared mic probable.

Boy State Girl Object of Hunt

Beverly Mass, Oct. 30-CUP)-- Missing more than % hours, 7-year. old Beverly Forbes was the object of an intensive hunt by police of e dozen North Shore communities to- day.
 Daughter of a Lynn General Electric Go. employe, the child last was seen conyersing with a class mate while enroute yesterday noon to St. Mary's Parochial School.
 Her father, Edward H. Forbes, said he was told by the classmate that his daughter had a nickel. She reputedly told her little friend that if she had another nickel she would take @ bus to Lynn to visit her aunt. Mrs. Aurelia Mc0innis.
 School authorities said Beverly failed to report for her afternoon classes but her disappearance caused no concern until she failed to return home in the afternoon. A check with Mrs. McGinnis disclosed that the child never had reached her home.
 Police said that Mrs. McGinnis recently moved from an address with which Beverly was familiar to another street in Lynn and they theorized that the child might have visited her aunt's former home and then became lost in trying to locate the new address.
 Beverly was described as an at tractive child with red hair that hung to her shoulders; 1 feet 6, weighing 30 pounds and wearing c green sport coat.

Cambridge, Mass, Oct. 30.-(UP) A 100-ton mathematical autona- ton, used effectively by the Navy during the war, will play a major role in solving peacetime problems of science and engineering, 1t was predicted today.
 The machine, a "differential an- alyzer" used by the Navy to com- pute range tables for guns, made it's civilian debut yesterday before a group of scientists and engineers at Massachusetts Institute of Tech nology.
 Designed to "liberate mans think ing for creative effort" the machine contains about 2,000 electronic tubes, several thousand relays, l50 motors, and nearly 200 miles of wire.
 The original machine was design ed by Dr. Vannevar Bush, director of the Off1ce of Scientific Research and Development in Washington. Authorities said the analyzer has proved in digesting information on earthquakes, sound waves, and atomic wave functions, and in the study of cosmic ray phenomena.
