Vet FoVorS Scientist As Leader
 Tells Gripe Board
 Caste System Hurts
 Relations in Army

Washington, March 30-(uP)-A Socialist who spent 2la years as an Army clerk overseas told the Army's gripe board today the military caste system hampered relations between officers and atom bomb scientists,
 William c. Gausmann, Washing ton representative of the Socialist Party, said he told the board some high-ranking officers treated civil Ian scientists as If they were en- listed men,
 T would feel a lot better If Dr. J, R, Oppenheiemr Ca leading atom ic scientist) were slated to be chief o. staff five years from now instead of an officer,' Gausmann said,
 "The West Point line cannot pro- duce an Army that will be worth a damn In the pushbutton war of the fuAre."
 Another witness before the six man gripe board, appointed by Secretary of War Robert P. Pat terson, was MlSgt, Clarence J. George, who recently was discharged as a major and promptly re-enlisted as a commissioned officer.
 T have always liked being an en- listed man better than being an off, cer" George said,
 Walter Fl, CGdy, an officer in WorlS War l who enlisted in l942 as @ private at the age of 54, told the board that enlisted men with grievances should have easier ac- cess to their commanding generals If their own officers refused redress.
 Gausmann said he told the board that 'in a disgustingly high per- centage of cases" chief clerks of overseas headquarters did 75 per- cent of the majors work "even in policy matters"
 The majors were inclined to spend their time taking care of lady friends and making big deals in the black market" he said.
 Cartoonist Bill Mauldin told the board that if soldiers everywhere had their own free press, there might be no need for the present investigation of the caste system.

Officer Urges StreomIininq OfU.S.Novy
Admiral Supports Civilian Control
 Of Atomic Energy

St. Louis, Mo, March 30-(uP)- Rear Adm. H. G. Bowen said today America should build quickly 6 Navy in which full consideration is given to the possibilities of atomic energy, Jet propulsion, gas turbines, guided missiles, and the pilotless aircraft"
 Bowen, chief of research and inventions in the Navy Department, addressed a session of the Ameri- can Association for the Advance ment of Science here.
 Our experience in World War IT." he said has been to the effect that the Navy cannot neglect any branch of science"
 Regarding control of atomic en- ergy, he emphasized that the Navy believes this program should be placed in civilian hands.
 The Navy believes that all the problems of control can best be handled by a National Atomic Con- mission, exclusively civilian in character, but including as mem- bers the Secretary of War, the Sec retary of the Navy, and, desirably. the Secretary of State-aS well as four full time members appointed by the President.
 "The function of the military, however, should be limited strictly to the consultative and the advis- ory, Bowen said.
 He added that 1t was obvious to him that the advent of atomic power would in time greatly affect such matters as tanker supply and fleet bases.
 "The ship powered by atomic en- ergy will have a cruising radius only dictated by the amount of pro- visions. which can be carried. Re- cent developments in bottom paints render the question of periodic dry docking a relatively unimpo-tant matter.
 When We reach the status in program such as we have reached in the subject of atomic energy, we will by necessity be forced to bal- ance security and progress. There must be progress, otherwise national defense will not be best served. We can have so much security that progress will be completely stopped or slowed to our great disadvan- tage." the admiral said.
 Yesterday, Dr. Harold c. Urey, noted chemist who contributed to the development of the atomic bombs, told the scientists he be- lieved that despite good intentions of the profession scientific efforts may lead to the total destruction of our civilization"

 R. J. Eggert. associate director of of the Institutes marketing depart ment, told the House Agriculture Committee that the average house. wife in these cities must pay $l.20 for meat priced by OPA at $l. He said the black market is growing.
 The surveys were made by the Statistical Research Company, Chicago, Eggert said. These com panieS, he added, based their ind ings on individual meat purchases in 1903 stores in Il large cities.
 Eggert said above-ceiling prices were charged in 83 percent of the stores surveyed.
 The overchargeS were wide spread and fragrant" and, in some instances the black market price was three times the legal price, Egg gert said.
