Scientist Says
Bomb Can't be
Kept Secret

William Higginbotham. chairman
OF the Federation OF American sci
cntists, insists that atom bomb
secrets cannot be kept
Higginbotham asserts:
NO FBl and no Army vigilance
can keep the world from nnding
out what we know. Our secrets
are leaking out at the rate OF so
many protons a second from every
cyclotron in the world.
They are being revealed wher-
ever nature OF the world is studied
by any scientist OF any nationality.
American, Canadian, Russian or
Chinese"
The atom expert insists, there
fore, that rigid international con-
trolls must be worked out now.
He contends that a policy OF secre-
cy "only slightly postpones the day
OF reckoning. until other nations
are making atom bombs"
Higginbotham and fellow scient-
lists believe the whole concept OF
military security should be reex'
amined in the light of total scienti-
&c warfare.
He points out that American
scientists already have pretty well
calculated what the results OF the
forthcoming atom bomb tests in

Questions and Answers
On Servicemen's
Problems
BY DOUGLAS LARSEN

WASHINGTON,-Here are some
questions from veterans regarding
the terminal leave applications:
CIT is not clear to me about
what papers have to be included
with the application for terminal
leave. I've lost my discharge pa
pers. Are photostats enough?
A-No, they are not enough. In
addition to photostats you have to
include a Certificate in Lieu of
Discharge. And be sure to include
photostats of both sides of your
discharge papers. That is neces-
sary because Information has to be
gotten from the front as well as
the back. The photostats need not
be full size, but large enough so
that the information is clear and
distinct.
OIL have been told that the
Navy discharge I have wasn't the
right n to use for my terminal
leave application. What does that
mean?
A Earlier Navy discharge
forms did not have separation
data on the back. 1t was put on
a separate form - Navpers Form
No. $50. In this case the photostat
Of the discharge paper must be
sent with the photostat of the
Navy separation form.
O. They tell me that some
women who served in the Army
aren't eligible for the terminal
leave. How do you explain this?
A-Service in the Women's
Army Auxiliary Corps = WAACs
as distinguished from service in
the Women's Army Corps-WACs
is not considered as official
service in the Army for purposes
of getting terminal leave.
Q-What about service in the
Army Cadet program? Does that
count toward terminal leave?
A-Service in the Army Aviation
Cadet program was in an enlisted
grade. This time can be figured in
for terminal leave purposes.
Q-Does time in the Navy's VS.
training program count for termi-
nal leave?
Ayes.
Ais leave received overseas
counted as regular leave?
Ayes.
Questions will be answered
only in this space-not by mail.)

the lineal descendants of this old
stock. There was one of the grand
daughters, Miss Sallie Moore, who
was reputed to be the greatest
beauty of her day. Her father, Will
liam Moore, removed to the state
of Tennessee, where she was heard
of still living a few years since.
George Moore of Moore Fields,
as he was tamiliarly called was
remarkable for his great energy
and good management. a man of
considerable wealth. owning many
slaves. He had a summer residence
on the sound to reach which he
crossed the North East river at the
Watts ferry and from a mile or two
to the East of it he had made a
perfectly straight road, ditched on
each side, twenty miles inlength.
This road though no longer used
can still be traced. 1t is related
that when corr was wanted at the
summer place, one hundred Negro
fellows would be started, each with
a bushel bag on his head. There is
quite a deep ditch leading from
some large bay swamps,lying to
the West Of the country road. 1t
used to be called the Devils ditch
and there was some mystery and
idle tradition as to why and how
the ditch was cut then. 1t was
doubtless made to drain the water
from these bays to flood some
lands cultivated in rice, which was
too low to be drained for corn.
