 l3 years older than the Tri-color of the French Republic and 23 years older than the present Union Jack of Great Britain.
 Although there has been no tAHn4c in the basic stars-and- stripes design of the Flag of the United States since i's aaoption. t appears to have been the in- tention of Congress at first 10 add both stars and stripes for new states. Thus in l794, following the admission of Vermont and Kentucky, the Flag displayed l5 stars and l5 stripes. By 1918 the number of states had increased to 20 with the prospect of others soon to be admitted, though the Flag still contained IS stripes and Is stars. Then Congress, real izing the unWieldy result of the policy of adding a new stripe for each new state settled upon the present design of 13 stripes to rep resent the original 13 colonies and an additional star for each new state, and decreed that each states star be added July 4, fol- lowing the date of the states ad- mission. Thus under this act of more than a century ago our flag has grown to it's present form.
 Finally, the Flag of the United States has never been hauled down in defeat save on isolated occasions, such as at Bataan. It has been carried to ultimate vic tory in every war in which the Nation has engaged and has been rehoisted over every foot of ter ritory that has ever been tempor- arily lost. It is an emblem of independence and freedom to the

Auxiliary Maps
Service Program

Expanding its service to the dis
abled war veterans is now a ma
tion-wide project of the American
Legion Auxiliary, Mrs. Margaret
Van Patten, rehabilitation chair
man told a meeting of the Robert
w. Ely unit at their Legion home
at their last meeting. The greatly
increased numbers of disabled
men now needing help and care
require many more volunteer aux
iliary workers in every commun
ity, she stated.
"As the majoriy of disabled vet
Grams now are veterans of World
War II, we are appealing to wo-
men of World War II families to
come into the Auxiliary and help
us serve Them" Mrs Van Patten
said. "Many already have re-
sponded and are taking deep in
terest in the work. Because of
their closeness to veterans of the
second war, they bring to the work
an understanding and sympathy
which makes them especially sue
ceSSful.
s.New veterans hospitals being
established in many parts of the
country require the establishment
of new groups of the Auxiliary's
volunteer hospital visitors. These
women received special training,
wear distinctive uniforms and
pins. They visit the hospitals at
regular intervals, performing a
large variety of services for the
sick and injured men. They keep
the hospitalized veterans in touch
with the outside world and keep
them from feeling that they are

strength.
"The Auxiliary also contacts
disabled veterans outside of the
hospital, helping them find work
they can do and aiding them in
the struggle to re-establish them
selves in civilian life. With the
Legion, the Auxiliary works for
just compensation for the disabled
and their families. Its influence
supported the Legion's demand for
the increases recently granted by
congress. Every woman who joins

strength to serve these unfortun-

Palestine
 BIockoded

London, Aug. 8-(UPl = Great Britain appeared tonight to have clamped a rigid sea and air block ade on the Palestine coast to divert the mounting stream of Jewish immigrants from the Holy Land.
 Two ships jammed with refugees, the Yagour and Rafa, were over due at Haifa. They were believed to have been intercepted by the British and taken to Cyprus.
 Other ships reported carrying some 10000 more refugees were be- lieved to be on the way to Pales- tine.
 At Cyprus it was reported that internment camps had been estab- lished to handle the illegal immi- grants.
 Increased blockade and security measures were put into force at Haifa where 4,0O0 refugees remain aboard ships awaiting a decision on their fate.
 A special cabinet meeting eonsid- cred the Jewish situation today but postponed a decision on what to do about the partition plan for Pales- tine to which the United States objects.

 Washington, Aug. g. GUP)-The atomic age is one year old this month.
 In scientific terminology it is really the "nuclear age"
 In an historic moment a year ago, science ''harnessed" the core of the atom-the atomic nucleus.
 It was the release of nuclear energy from the worlds first fis- sion bomb that created the fleet ing, crashing monday in the dark ness of vast eXpanSe of New Mex ican desert on July Is, 1945
 The atomic age" was born in newspaper headlines and in the throats of radio announcerS less than a month later when the world learned of the astounding fact that one bomb had obliterated an entire city in Japan and that another a few days later nearly wiped out a second city.
 The Atom Was Magic
 For years there had been fairy tale talk of "harneSsing the atom" Atomic" caught the public imagi- nation.
 Now even scientists curb their bent for technical accuracy to speak in the popular idiom.
 So this is the first anniversary of the atomic age"
 It might not have been so. h. deed, it probably would not have been so hard had there been no World War II.
 Nevertheless, scientists feels that the new era would have been inev- itable in another decade or two.
 But the atomic age did not just happen. The first fisSion bomb was the most modern end-product of centuries of scientific thought and development.
 The thinking which led ultimately to the devastation of Japan's Hir- oshima and NagaSaki is said to have had at least one definite root about 2,400 years ago.
 20th Century Sped Research
 The systematic research which led to the grim reality of bombs is of comparatively recent origin, how ever. It began in the l7th century, gathered speed slowly in the 18th and 18th centuries and has come forward with great rush in the present one
 Social scientists may find it sig nifieant that the atomic age was brought about almost exclusively by scientists of the Western world. The people who split the uranium nucleus were from the same coun- tries whose scientists gave civiliza- tion superfortresses, X-rays, surgic- al anesthesia, automobiles, high

Bikini Fleet Still Heavily Radioactive

Off Bikini Atoll, Aug. 8-(UP)- The Baker Day atomic bomb satu- rated many target ships with enough deadly radioactivity to make them dangerous to crews for year unless they are artificially decon- taminated before that time, Vice Admiral w. H. P. Blandy said to- day.
 Blandy, who directed last months atomic tests here, said the shallow underwater burst produced more lingering radioactivity than scien- lists calculated before hand. |,
 In that sense, Blandy said, the Baker Test may prove more sig nificant than the Able Day burst or Test Charley, the deep underwater explosion scheduled for next year.
 Because of persistent radioactiv- ity which would inf1ict slow death on permanent crews and because of the gradual demobilization of joint task force one, it may be many months before all targets are cleared for inspection and re- mobilization, Blandy said.
 Blandy will sail for Pearl liar Dor Aug. 10 aboard the U.S.S. Mt. Mckinley. He will arrive on Aug l6. He will fly to San Francisco two days later and leave on the 18th for Washington.
 Blandy will leave the rest of the decontamination work in the hands of Rear Admiral G. F. Fahrion.

Austria May Get US. Loan

Washington, Aug. 8-CUP)-Aus- tria will be the next country to get in line for sizable American loan, it was reliably reported today.
 The Austrians, through their rep resentative in Washington, Dr. Lud- wig Kleinwaechter, have put out in- formal feelers for a loan. They are reported to have met sympathetic reaction.
 The loan probably would amount to at least S25,0oO,OOO and would be extended through the Export-Im- port bank. It would be used for the purchase of vital raw materials and essential capital equipment to help the recovery of Austrian industry.
