Protestant Churches Accusd Of NegIecting RIrGI Field

nes Molnes. la, Nov. iA CUPl- A Protestant theolosisl accused rural churches of neeleollng the uneeEprlvtleged marginal people" because flor one reason-lhey arc not a good financial -lnveslmenl.~
 The Rev. C. N. Mcconnell, Bos- ton University school of Theology. made elie charge ln a speech to rural ehurchmen attending the Nee lionnl ConvocAtlon of the Church h Town and Country.
 Mcconnell said the church in continuing Co neglect marginal peo- ple ran the risk of merely f1irnish- lng ehaplAins for well-eo-0o farm. ers who maintain them As hired men Co preach some fractional faith which suits their preSudlces, traditions or family tree.~
 one.thlrd of Che nations eo0. 900 migrants are labor kypsles." he said. and one~thlrd of its es000. 900 farmers are hanging onto their farm tenure hg virtue of noEtgage or lease"
 The church has joined the pro- cesslon of those who neglect the marginal people" Mcconnell said. Even the labor unions have scorned them. and the Southern Tenant Farmers Union Is about the only enc which operates ln this field.
 SOne explanation for church neg- lect of the rural marginal field is the econusnlc fact that lt IS not . good investment. Few churches, ne. tie sapportsand few benevolent gifts can be gleaned.
 The underprivileged group is the churchS mission field. It must take over some migrant camps with the intent to build subsistence home. steads and fight it out with land sharks and greedy land owners"

Scientists Create SnOlUstOrnl With Pellets of Dry Ice

Schenectady, N. Y. Nov. i4- (UP) Scientists from the General Electric laboratories said today they had succeeded in producing Q snow storm by sprinkling an ordinary cloud with pellets of dry ice dropped from an airplane.
 The process is 30 simple, ex- plained Dr. Irving Lsangnuir, asso- ciate director of the OF laboratory, that a single airplane, flying thHoueh an overcast sky. could blanket Q large area with several inches of snow.
 Langmuir said the experiment Is important because:
 1t probably can be applied ia Winter to produce snow in regions where there are clouds which fatl to produce precipitation, thus stor- ing up a supply of moisture to feed irrigation and water-power projects during the Spring months.
 Could Drop Snow En Rural Areas
 Snow might also be produced at mountain resorts for the benefit Of WtutcT SpUAtS CaAtiAH3aAosss
 Clouds destined to produce snow- fall over urban areas could possibly be made to drop snow in rural areas instead, thus eliminating the proo- lem of snow removal.
 1t could be used to clear areas ct clouds that produce dangerous icing conditions, thus reducing haz- ards to aircraft.
 Isangmuir said the first man. made snowgtorrn was produced flying over 0reylock Mountain in Western Massachusetts,. flew through e cloud three miles long and turned it into snow.
 Evaporated In Dropping
 From c i4,000-foot level, the snow fell an estimated 5000 feet.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1946-11-14

But because of the dry condition ot the atmosphere beneath the cloud. the snow evaporated before at reached the ground, Lanemuir said.
 In cloud formations of lower alti~ tudes, which commonly prevail in Winter, such a precipitation of snow would reach and blanket the ground, the scientist added.
 The method was developed by Vincent ]. Schaefer, 0E research scientist who made the outdoor test.
 six pounds of dry Ice pellets were scattered in the air above the cloud and within two minutes a radical modification of the cloud took place and streamers of snow began to pour out of the base of the cloud" LAngmuir reported.
 RroceNs Explained
 LAngmutr explained that the dry ice pellets, which are soli0 carbon dioxide with Q temperature of ne degrees below zero, converted the drops of water in the cloud to ice.
 The heat which Is generated by the freezing of the water produces a turbulence in the cloud which re- suits in pillars of cumulus at the top. Langmuir added. This tarbu- lcnce. he said. enables the process to spread as Q type of chain reac- taon and draws more moisture into the active region.
 With a. completely overcast sky. he said, a single plane should be able Co produce huge amounts of snow fn comparison to the amount of carbondioxide used He estisnat- cd that a single pellet of dry Ice, about the size of Q pea, dropping 2.o00 feet through the air, might produce enough ice nuclei to devel-

Homma' Gave Orders
For March Of Death,
Aide Says at Trial
~ the Associated Press.


MANILA. Jan. lit. Gen. Masa-
haru Homma himself gave the order
for the infamous death march that
killed thousands on the route from
Bataan to Camp oDonnell in April,
is42, one Of his stan officers testi-
fed at Homma's war crimes trial
today.
And neither Homma nor his staff
cared what happened to the emaci-
ated American and Filipino prison.
srs. tbs witness, 1t. Col. Michio
Kitayama asserted. Kitayama, a
communications officer at Homma's
l4th Imperial Army headquarters,
said he saw the march from sew
eral successive vantage points along
the road.
The once-arrogant Homma list
ened meekly to the testimony.
kttayama's responses to prosecu-
ton questions did not swerve from
O previously recorded deposition in
which he asserted that the japanese
attitude toward prisoners was not
one OF too great concern"
Homma's Men Busy.
This prevailed all through the
tJapanese) Army" he explained, be-
cause Homma's men were busy re-
ducing Corregidor and because of
the Japanese belief that any soldier
who surrendered has committed
shameful act and deserves punish
ment.
Homma as commander of the
Japanese Army bore responsibility
for the whole action of his men"
IN carrying out his orders, Kitayama
said in reply to one question. But
Japanese law, he added. does not
consider him as criminally liable for
their misdeeds.
This answer was hurriedly shushed
hy Maj Gen. Leo Donovan, presi-
dent OF the trial commission and
stricken from the record.
kltayama, who was with Homma
throughout the Philippines cam
paign, also testified that he believed
Homma received word from Tokyo
that Manila had been declared an
open city by the Americans-but
not until December 80, 1e41, three
days after bombers under Homma's
command had smashed at civilian
buildings IN the ancient walled city.
Expected Fewer Prisoners.
Maj. Gen. Toshimitsu Takstsu.
also on Homma's staff. told the COM
mission earlier that he had headed
the handling of prisoners of war,
He said he expected 10000 Ameri-
cans and Filipinos would surrender

iarla, opposed the Bataan defenders,
The prisoners were well" he said.

Two Manila newspapermen were
scheduled to take the stand today
to testify against Homma on the
charge that he violated interna-
tlonal law by bombing Manila De-
