 Paris, Dec. i7.-(NEA)-It wasn't exactly necessity that n1othered the invention of c machine for cotiI1t- ing microbes, 1t was just that pr. Michel Faguet, now 70, thought he had more important things to do than spend hours counting bugs. :.
 Among other things he wanted to get degrees in medicine and engineering and become Q member of the famous Pasteur Institute. After a few days of tedious re- search at the University of sor- bonne to determine the properties of various antiseptics, he decided to invent a machine for this purpose.
 Today, the machine Dr. Faguet calls a mecrobiophotometer clicks relentlessly and monotonously, day and night, at the Pasteur Institute waging a one-machine war on mic crohes. It is the only machine of its kind in the world, according to its young creator.
 As the machine records the re- suits, the doctor studies, plans HUI bAlCT ObuOACog ctCko OdO AOA es cup ofscoffee or generally does the opposite of what he did when as student at the Sorbonne he sat hunched over his experiments day and night.
 To build this machine, Dr. Fa- guet had to study microbes and antibiotics, agents that kill or ar- rest the growth of microbes, and he had to study cams and levers and photo-electric cells. Yet he sounds and acts like man who would make a good quarterback on the Army football team. He still looks like he's pushing his 22nd birthday.

 MADONNA WARN, Neal Lang says Gen, Ira Bakers speech in London was the best he ever heard, AS Baker got up to speak at a dinner in his honor tgiv- ca by the British Air Forcel, the aSSemblage sat back and heaved & long sigh,
 "ffo. hum" mumbled one, hen proe1y talk for hours"
 But Baker didn't talk a minute. He simply said: "Gentlemen. We won't do any talking until we've done some fighting. And when we 90 home-we hope you will be glad we came"
 Then he sat down. And the applause was like thunder. We aent know which pleased the public more; Lewis canoelling his strike or Truman cancelling his speech.

 RULE DISCUSSED

AUKLAND, N. Z., Sept. II. - James M. Bertram, adviser to the New Zealand delegation on the Far Eastern Commission, declared today there was danger of the Allied occupation of Japan becom- ing a single power control.'
 Bel tram, just back from Japan, told newsmen: The British estab- lishment there was all that pre- vented the country from being en- tirely an American preserve. There fore New Zealand must take it's force in Japan and the British oc- cupation force much more ser iously."
 The danger of one-power control, Bertram declared, was that Japan might become "a pawn in major United States strategic interests against a possible Soviet threat" He said it therefore was imperative for Great Britain to work for bet ter relations between Russia and America in the Far East.
 Bertram said the permission giv- en to Japan to send whalers to the was in line with Gen. soft policy"
