Allies To Divide
 Huge German Gold Store Seized in War

WASHINGTON, (P)-An Allied Big Three commission has agreed to make a prompt distribution of part of a $33O, ,OOO gold store seized during the war from Inc Germans as a means of helping meet critical financial needs of European countries.
 Undersecretary of state Robert Lovett said today that represents tives of the United States, Britain and France, forming "gold pot" commission, agreed to restore the gold to those countries from Wich it was footed by the Nazis.
 Lovett told a news conference that only about half of the gold pot can be distributed immediate ly. In answer to question, Lovett said he believes use of the gol>' will not eliminate the need for stop-gap emergency aid for west ern Europe from the United States.
 But, he added, it will be a sub stantial help and might help to ease France over its present fi- nancial difficulties.
 In Paris, French leaders were reported to have told secretary of the treasury Snyder that France will face financial crisis within a few weeks unless help ic forth

Released From Hospital After Twenty Years

TRENTON, N. J. (P)--Tall, dig nified 60-year-old Raymond Reid, described by a chancery court judge as trying to portray the Spir- it of Christ as female as we'll as male, was freed yesterday from a state mental hospital.
 He had been confined for 20 years as the result of what the court said was "a rejected and dusty relic of intolerance"
 Reid, author of a religious text which was published during his confinement, walked calmly out the main gate of the institution, kissed his 83-year-old mother who had obtained the court order for his freedom, and told reporters that his only feeling concerning his confinement was that of "hat- ing a great evil like Abe Lincoln hated slavery"
 His release from the institution had been ordered last week by vice chancellor Wilfred H. Jayne, who had described Reid as mot a patient, but a prisoner" in the state mental hospital. The chan cery judge said that Reid had sui fered mot the delusion, but the actuality that he is deprived of his liberty"

U. $. Is In Midst Of
 Severe Postwar Imitation

WASHINGTON (P)-Comptrol- Ter of the currency Preston Delano said today "We are in the full swing of postwar imitation which is severe and dangerous and ap- pealed to the nations banks to help put on the brakes.
 AS supervisor of the national banking system, Delano urged state banking commissioners to discourage dangerous cred { practices" by the $500 institutions which they oversee. He added:
 "We can use our influence and all our persuasive powers to pre- vent an undue expansion of credit in those fields which contribute heavily toward a continuation of this imitation spiral in which we are caught and which has woven its web around us."
 Delano's remarks were prepared for a convention of the national supervisors of state banks.
 Thomas w. Leggett, president of the association, also called for a tightening of credit, asserting that the "wild speculator and the undercapitalized promoter" will be wiped out "when supply and de- mand come nearer together, which they are sure to do."

LOS ANGELES (P)-The amaz- ing tastes of Carleton R. Bain- bridges Irish settlers, Pat and Gunner, whom he left $30,000, continue to regale superior court jury hearing the contest of the will brought by Sherman J. Bainbridge, brother of the late dog fancier.
 Witnesses Monday testified that Carleton R. told them the dogs preferred Mickey Mouse and sim liar cartoons at the movies, which they attended regularly with their master.
 Attorneys in the case stipulated that although the dogs talk, they do not speak English. Which prompted Judge Charles s. Bur nell to get into the act.

4,40O Jewish Refugees
Sail Again for Reich

GIBRALTAR, Aug. 29.-Three
British transports carrying 4,40t
Jewish refugees to the British zone
of Germany departed again today
for Hamburg.
The vessels put out yesterday
but returned when one Of them
blew a boiler tube. The refugees
now in their 49th consecutive day
aboard ship, sailed from France last
month in the Exodus 1947 in an
effort to crack the British blockade
and settle in Palestine, but failed
and were returned to France.
They refused to disembark there
and the British government decided
they should be taken to the British
zone of Germany. The voyage to
Hamburg is expected to take about
10 days. The French government
has announced that the refugees
most of whom are of Polish origin
may return to France from Ger
many by rail if they desire.

It expands all it's energy in a
minute fraction of a second. Until
now the explosion has been sup
posed to be uncomfortable.
The big atomic piles operated by
the Government have had as their
primary purpose the production OF
Iplutonium. Various other radio
active isotopes are side products OF
this manufacture.
Plutonium Now Direct Fuel.
The production of energy by the
uranium pile is comfortable by in
serting in the uranium metallic rods
which absorb some Of the neutrons
In some way-the actual mechan-
ism remains under the head of re-
stricted information-the difficulty
has been overcome at Los Alamos
so that plutonium can be used di-
irectly as a fuel and it is possible to
dispense with a matrix to slow down
the neutrons. .'
The rate can be kept constant
says the commission statement.
THE energy generated produces no
more heat in the core of the reactor
(the container Of the plutonium)
than is given off by an ordinary
kitchen oven, but since this heat
is generated in a relatively small
region, special cooling provisions
are required to prevent oyerheating
While the overall energy release is
comparatively small the concentra-
ton is intense"
No Atomic Engine Yet.
The new pile is not in itself the
long -awaited atomic engine and will
have no industrial value, but will
be extremely important in further
atomic energy studies.
The original design and construc-
ton of this fast neutron reactor
were the work of group Of scien-
fists working with Dr. Louis Slotin
and DR.. Phillip Morrison. DR.. Slotin
died a year ago after being acct
dentally exposed to a lethal dose
of atomic radiation. DR.. Morrison
now at Cornell. still is associated
with the Los Alamos laboratory.

actor today are Drs. David and JANE
Hall, husband and wife who re.

The Americans and British argued
