That Marvellous Book
That Marvellous Book, the
Bible. is still the Word of God
that liveth and abideth forever.
And all the enemies of yester-
years and nowadays have not ex-
tinguished one spark of its Holy
fire, not diluted one drop of its
honey, nor torn one hole in its
beautiful veSture, nor broken one
string on its thousand string harp,
nor weakened it's vitality by one
pulse beat, nor shortened its
march of triumph by one step.
Today this Bible walks more
bypaths and travels more high

and speaks to more people in
their mother tongue than any
other book this world has ever
known, or ever will know.

Nanking, July 30-(UP)-Veteran assault troops Of the Chinese Com munist army have massed across the Yangtze River from the Nan king Shanghai area, apparently for an attack on the railway linking those two important cities, govern ment sources said today
 The Communist assault force re- portedly by-passed the bitter fight ing in North Kiangsu and is con- centrated at Thinking, just opposite the government naval base of Xii angyin-midWay between Shanghai and Ranking.
 Government military authorities have reinforced the Kiangyn gar- rison with an entire brigade ac- cording to the newspaper Ia Kung Pao, and are confident of repelling any attack.
 Communist troops recently suc- ceeded in crossing the Yangtze west of Kiangyin, but were beaten of by Nationalist shore patrols. Similar Communist amphibious operations have been repulsed at Tsingtao, base of the U. s. Seventh Fleet.
 Nationalist troops were reported still advancing through north Xii angsu against strong Communist resistance. Some Kuomintang units have reached Hinghwa, near the important Communist base of Tungtai, according to the National ist army newspaper Peace Daily.
 Other Nationalist forces. the newspaper said, have captured Chouohiangchaang on the Tain sien-Laoko highway and are ap- preaching Tato, which is midway between Hinghwa and Tungtai
 Communist troops were reported "furiously counterattacking in the Sulning area, southeast of Hsu- chow, in an effort to block the Ma tionalist advance on Huaiyin.
 The official Chinese Central News Agency said violent" Communist attack began yesterday on the cities Of Shihtsungchen and Changshih- kou,' approximately 30 miles from Hsuchow. Communist offensives were reported also in southern Shansi province and northwest of Tienchang

 Nauy Expected to Liue Through Atomic Warfare
BY ROBERT RICHARDS

New York, July 30-CUP)-The admirals can relax. We've found a scientist who thinks that the Navy may survive any atomic war.
 If they keep their chins up, and their hulls down, the sailors may be around when that last bomb whistles past.
 Dr. John R, Cunning, professor of physics at Columbia University, and one Of Americas leading ex- perts on atomic energy, said today that the Navy's. one great hope was the submarine.
 Craft Powered by Atom
 In a recent press conference at Bikini, Admiral Edward L. Coch- rane, naval designer, indicated to reporters that the fleet of the flu ture might be built around sub- marines.
 Hes right" Cunning said. "The submarine is excellent because it's difficult to locate from the air. What you can't fnd-you can't hit. .".4
 Cunning, agreeing with Cochrane on a second point, said he thought it easily possible that the Navy would have atomic-powered craft within three to five years
 He explained that A-powered submarines need not be much larger than the ordinary subs used in World War II.

Covered Decks Out

But they would be able to travel submerged at from 9 10 30 knots, ' he said. And they would be able to maintain this speed for long periods of time.
 Cunning, who has known the A bomb since it was just whisper in scientists ear, was a little doubtful of ships chances on the surface.
 They could make covered decks to protect the personnel from the blast, he said, "but the added weight would make the scheme Im- practical"
 He added, armor or no armor, he didn't see much hope for a ship that got direct hit from an A. bomb.
 1000 Feet in Bullseye
 Of course, they can build ships strong enough to withstand near misses, he conceded.
 Cunning refused to estimate just how close a bomb could come to a ship without folding it's ribs, but many experts figure that 1000 feet is pretty near the bullseye. Any thing closer than that means the ship is going under.
 Some people say that no nation would waste an atomic bomb to down just one ship" he said, but I'm not too sure about that. Right now bomb is cheaper to make

'CIoghorns'
 1hreotenino FiIibusters

Washington, July 30 - GUP) - congress, seeking Friday adjourn ment, today became tangled in q legislative snarl that threatens f1li- busters in both the Senate and House.
 The House tripped over an at tempt of it's un-American Activities Committee to cite George Marshall head of the National Federation for Constitutional Liberties, for con- tempt.
 Rep. Vito Marcantonio, GAL. N. Y9, IS determined that the con- tempt proceedings will not reach the House floor unless the committee makes a definite promise that bill 10 give automobiles to amputees will receive consideration at this ses- sion. Without the promise, Marcan- tonlo's forces guarantee that the House will transact no more bus mess this year. Marshall allegedlv refused to give detailed informa- ton demanded by the n-American Affairs Committee.
 On the other side of the Capitol the senate was in a suspended fili- buster on the perennial anti-poll tax bill. But under a program de- signed by Senate Majority Leader Alben W. Barkley, Ky, the fight is supposed to be short.
 When Barkley announced he would call up a bill to outlaw the poll tax, practically every south erner in the Senate took deep breath and fexed his vocal cords. Barkley, without bothering to ask. knew they were preparing to fili- buster. He quickly filed a petition to limit debate The petition will come up for vote Wednesday.
 Both sides retired and the Senate proceeded to debate social security legislation.
 No Senator expects Barkley's de- bate limitation petition to gain the tWo-thirds vote necessary for adop- ton. When it fails, Barkley is ex- pected to give up the poll tax fight for this session and call up other measures he wants passed before Congress adjouns.
