PHILADELPHIA, Sept. Is. -
Transmission of psychological in
formation by the United States to
foreign nations should become "a
real instrument of national policy,
according to Rear Admiral Ellis M
zacharias, deputy chief of naval in

Asserting that greater use of pri-

would permit this country to pene-
trate behind the iron curtain,
Admiral Zacharias said in an inter
view yesterday with the Philadelphia
evening Bulletin that the United
States has taken only faltering
steps" in the right direction thus far
He suggested that a commission
be established composed of leaders
from the FIELDS OF the press, radio
and other media to advise Govern
ment officials.
Admiral Zacharias later told the
Reserve officers OF the naval services
that he does not feel another wal
is inevitable. The recent speech
before the United Nations by Andre.
Y. Vishinsky, Admiral zacharias
said, was merely an indication "o1

JOE HAPPEN NOW WORKS
 FOR RECORD
By JOE REICHLER

Associated Press Sports Writer
 Joe Hatten the stylish southpaw of the Brooklyn Dodgers who has beaten Chicago six times without setback this season, needs only three more triumphs over the Cubs to tie the record for the most victories over a club in one year.
 Tne record of nine is held by Ed Reulbach of the 1908 Cubs, whose victims, strangely enough, were the Dodgers.
 Eatten pitched a three-h.s. 40 shutcut over his cousins" yester- day to extend the Dodgers winning streak to 10 straight, not counting the protested 5-2 victory" over the St. Louis Cardinals July 20. It is the longest winning streak of the season in the National League.
 The WI enabled the Dodgers to maintain their seven game lead over the runer-up St. Louis Card inals who staged one of their cus- tomary fast finishes to nip the Boston Braves 8-7. Earl Torger- son homered for the Braves. The Braves dropped to nine games be- hind the Dodgers and one percen- tage point behind the third place New York Giants, who lost to Cin- cinnati. 50.

Fight for Healthier U. s.

A unified attack against pollution
of the Nations waterways to pro-

advocated yesterday by DR.. Thomas
Parran, Surgeon General of the
United States Public Health Service.
Appearing before the Senate Pub
lie Works Committee, which opened
hearings on the Taft -Barkley water
pollution control bill, DR.. Parran
said his agency has a major con-
cern in the problem of water pol
luton because of Its importance in
the overall national health pro-
gram"
The witness said States and COM
munities alone cannot cope with the
problem and need Federal assist
ance.
Senator Taft, Republican, of Ohio,
also appeared to testify on behalf
of his bill, which grants Federal
assistance to communities under
taking sewage disposal programs.
The Governments share would be
one third OF the total cost. In adj
dition, the Government would loan
money for the programs.
All the Nations waterways would
be included in the program, in
.cluding the Potomac River basin.
The bill calls for Federal outlay
of 100000 900 annually over To-
year period.
