A.B0MB EXPERTS
SCOFF AT BLAST
Belief That Tests May
Cause Quakes, Laugh
ed Off By Military

WASHINGTON, April g. up -.
The task force thinks the professor
worries overmuch about the earth
convulsing possibilities of the atom
bomb.
Two of the atom test force ex-
perts were asked Tuesday about a
statement by H. S Uhler, profess
sor emeritus Of physics at Yale
university, that the selection OF BIZ
KIM atoll as the site for the test
was ian ill-advised choice" be-
cause it might set off chain OF
earthquakes of disastrous magni-
tude. DR.. Uhler expressed his
fears in letter to the New York
Times.
He suggested that the bomb ex-
plosion might crack the crust un-
der the floor OF the Pacific, letting
in sea water which, coming in
contact with volcanic heat, could
touch off chain of earthquakes
sufficient to upset the stability of
the earth on it's axis and distcr1
it's shape. Such a chair earthquake
could generate a -idal wave mile
or more high, the professor taeo-
rized.
Rear Adm. w. S. Parsons, a
deputy director of the joint Army
Navy task force, and Comdr.
Roger Revelle, oceanographer and
adviser to the force, were asked
by reporters about Uh1er's theory.
They produced records and figures
on earthquakes, submarine ge-
ography and big explosions to
show why they believe there is no
ground for worry.
LOS ANGELES, April 9.-P)-
The chances of an atomic bomb
explosion setting off a world-raz-
ing CHI a n reaction might be
termed iafinitesmal, if DR.. Harold
c. Urey's estimate is correct.
The University Of Chicago physi-
cist and Nobel prize winner, who
helped create the atom bomb, in
an interview put the chances at
one in 100 septillion. That's l
followed by rs zeros. Written out,
it looks like this 100000, 900, O00,-

CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO, April 9-(A9-May rye
marked up another 26-year high in
grain futures trading Tuesday
when it advanced the permissible
unit and finished at $2.37 7-8.
Moderate commission house de-
mand uncovered light offerings,
after an easy start, and when a
naid-morning advance of cents at
Minneapolis was marked Up, short
covering came into the market and
despite some profit cashing the ad-
vance was steady.
Deferred oats, the only ether con-
tracts not at ceiling prices, were
easy at the start and did not climb
to above yesterdays close until
near the finish when some agrees
sive buying came into the pit.
Traders said the failure Of oats
to respond in sympathy with rye
rapid advance, was attributable to
the belief that tomorrow govern
ment crop estimate will show larg-
er stocks of oats on farms than is
usual this time of year.
At the finish wheat, corn and
barley were unchanged at CELL
ing prices, oats were unchanged
tc IL higher than Mondays close,
May 83, and rye was unchanged
to 5 cents higher, May 81 81 7-8.
Interest in the session was large
L, directed to developments of the
bakers and millers' conference
with government officials in Wash
ington. Traders held to the opinion
that the only way to increase sup
plies of grains in commercial
channels is to increase ceiling
prices until the new crop reaches
the market.

School Board
Member Chosen

E. ST. LOUIS, Ill.-(ANP)-
Unprecedented numbers of Negro
voters at the polls here last week
elected Marion Stallings the first
colored member of the board of
education and repudiated machine
controlled politics by defeating the
ticket of Dan McGlynn, white, self
styled political boss.
The Republican Challenger or
ganization, an all-Negro political
group, worked against McGlynn's
machine to elect II out of 1S COM
mitteemen on their slate. Much of
the success in the primary cam
paign has been attributed to
Thomas Lewis. local business man,
who matched dollar for dollar with
white politicians. Lewis is chair
man of the board of directors of
the Challenger organization of
$500 members.
Election of Stallings to the
school board marks the first time
a colored person has been elected
to any office higher than that of
precinct committeeman here.
Others prominent in working to-
ward success of the primary cam
paign were: Edward Langford,
president of the Republican Chal-
lengers; Joe Lewis, Juan Atkins

Chastity Is On The Decline Among
American Women Counselor Says
6Oqo Of 1916
Marriages To
ProveVeracity

If the current trend continues,
pre-marital chastity will be close
to the vanishing point for females
born after 1870"
This startling statement is made
in an article in the current issue
Of PAGEANT Magazine, by DR..
Clifford R. Adams, entitled ''How
Chaste Are American Girls ?" DIR.
Adams is well qualified to discuss
the subject, since he is the founder
and director of Americas first col
legiate marriage clinic, at Pennsyl-
vania State College, and is also a
member of the American Associa-
ton of Marriage Counselors.
DR.. Adams bases his findings
both on studies made by other psy-
biologists and sociologists, and on
observations of the young women
who report to his Marriage Coun-
selling Service clinic. He lists ten
major reasons for a steady in
crease in promiscuity during the
past 35 years. Among these are
the emotions engendered by two
world wars, the steady diet of
amatory references i'll books, NOV
les, and advertisements, the abil-
ity to get away from parental SUI
pervision made possible by the
automobile, the relaxation of fam
lily chaperonage, and the frequent
economic necessity to postpone
marriage.
CONTRADICTION
An interesting sidelight of the
Pageant article is a contradiction
of the widespread impression that
college girls are the claiming
youth" of our generation. On the
contrary. it states, statistics show
that college girls are more con-
servative and inhibited than non
college girls, with roughly only
about three-fifths as much promls-
Guilty in the former group.
DR.. Adams estimates in his artl-
Gle that so per cent of all women
marrying in 1916 will have had
pre-marital relationships, COM
pared with figures showing II per
cent among women marrying be-
fore 1912. If the rise In intimacy
continues at the same rate as for
a generation, he reports, innocence
will have disappeared by 1860:
However, he declares, Actually L
am confident that will never hap
pen. The pendulum will swing
back toward greater chastity" He
proposes as the major solution to
the problem an undertaking by
society to make it possible for
young people to marry by the
time their natural incllnatlons
have completely developed.

REVIEWED BY FRANK MAR
SHALL DAVIS FOR AMP
Moving with her family from
Iowa to North Dakota when very
young, Era Bell Thompson grew
up about as free of the crippling
influences of color prejudice as is
possible for Negro in our ia

to this kind of environment are
recorded in a thoroughly readable
and friendly new book, american

The autobiography of this young
woman, not yet 40, automatically
invites comparison with the life

most Negroes lie between the two
extremes represented by Era Bell
Thompson and Richard Wright.
DEEP FRIENDSHIPS
In North Dakota, through pub
lie school and later through col
lege, Miss Thompson had warm
and deep friendships with white
girls and boys who accepted her
as at least their equal. As an ath-
lete and budding writer, she was
admittedly superior to many.
Those who waved the flag Of race
prejudice she avoided. She finished
college by virtually becoming the
member of family of deter
