Old Church in on English Village

Nop shadows fill this holy place,
Soft music steals along the gloom;
The ohost of music, like q trace
OF angel choirs An ancient tomb
Lies In shaft of Hght-the gold
OF flame from lanterns quaint and Ola.
The knight phose e61gy lies here
With folded hands upon MS saooro,
Lived tn the far, dim yesteryedr;
Enoraped on stone the tDrttten word
THAT tells his lineage and name
The story OF his raliant fame.
Upon the altar, Gothic, dark,
The cross, uplifted, shines In light
OF many candles, and the stark,
But lopely cruct1ir is bright:
The worshtppers In silent prayer
Are conscious of the Presence there.

Stars, Men and Atoms
Star With Coat of Iron
Is Found Near Antures
New Discovery Enveloped by Particles
Took Seven Years to Photograph
Bv Thomas K, Henry


By Thomas r. Henry
star with coat Of iron has just been found
In the southern sky.
+. 1t is the snalf blue star which is the COM
panion Of the great red Antares the heart Of
the constellation of the Scorpion and one Of
the brightest objects in the heavens.
Discovery of the iron envelope of this star,
which is about three times the size Of the sun
and is composed largely of helium has just
been announced through the American Asso-
ciation for the Advancement of Science here
by Dr. Otto Struve, director of the Mcdonald
Observatory at Fort Davis, Tex.
Spectrum Photographed.
DR.. Struve was able to obtain q photograph
OF the spectrum of this strange object only
after waiting seven years for sufficiently clear
and quiet night when 1t could be separated
from its giant companion. Antares and the
star are inseparable except with a very power
ful telescope and even then their lumnosities
run into each other so that 1t is difficult to
reach any conclusions Antares is about $4,000
times the size of the sun and Is about 150-fold
brighter. Its light floods everything else in
its vicinity
once having Isolated the companion star
however, DR.. Struve found that on each side
OF the radiation wave lengths, which come only
from luminous helium were bands which could
be attributed only to iron in highly unstable
condition. Each element when made luminous,
emits wave lengths which are characteristic
OF itself alone and identify 1t anywhere in tha
universe.
His Interpretation Is that these iron lines"
come from an envelope surrounding the star.
The diameter of this envelope is about ten
times that of the solar system.
Envelope" Contains Dust
Certain peculiarities of the spectrum lead
DR.. Struve to the conclusion that this envelope
is not composed entirely of iron In the form
of gas, such as is encountered in many
stars, but Is largely in the form of very fine
iron dust from some Of whose atoms one outer
electron has been stripped. 1t may be roughly
analogous, he says, to the fine dust ion,zed by
the light Of the sun which is responsible for
the light of the solar corona visible only during
the total eclipse and for the rarely seen zodis-
cal lights. A curious circumstance Is the
complete absence of hydrogen lines in this
nebulosity. So far as the spectrum shows, it
might come from iron alone
"An attractive idea" he says in his report
to Science, the official organ of the asSocia-
ton, is that the nebulosity is not strictly case
Gus but that 1t consists of solid, perhaps even
meteoric particles which long ago have lost
most of their hydrogen and are rich in iron.
The radiations may be, In a sense, a counter
part to what in the solar system we know as
comet radiations"
Other stars are known with surrounding en-
velopes, he explains but these consist Of hydro
gen. 1t was from the Similarity In the
arrangement of their spectra that he deduced
that the iron emission, lines must come from
an iron coat rather than from iron gas In
the star itself

OG OeJOTe tHS ARMY IooF oUeT tHeH Cofe.
One shocking revelation for any visitor to
the American zone in Bavaria is the way
Yankee soldiers are openly developing q feeling
Of acute bitterness toward Jewish DPS.
1t almost appears that these American
youngsters, most of whom were too young to
serve in the war, have been allowed to think
that these DPS are former enemies, and there
fore, something to be despised and pushed
around.
The low state Of morale and high state Of
surliness among Americans Is another story in
itself. But it fits into the sorry picture of the
way the DIP problem is being handled in both
British and American zones.
And the Germans unable to take out their
repressions on the occupiers, have transferred
their pent-up and unmitigated spirit of arro-
gance to the easiest targets at hand-the
ragged inmates Of DIP camps
Here in North Germany the heart of the
British zone, anti-Semitism apparently has not
reached the state of bitterness obvious in Ba-
varia. but those who know say that it is a
big worry to both the British army and the
international refugee organization.
The answer, of course, lies far from Germany
and Austria. It lies with countries that are
closing their doors and shutting their eyes to
one of the great tragedies of our time.
The Jews freely admit that one major diff
Guilty is the fact that so many of these Jew
ish DPS are not f1rst-class citizens as a re-
suit of their enervating experiences in the
vacuum.
But the situation has reached point where
it cannot wait much longer without a vol
canic eruption.
No matter how the United Nations decides
the Palestine problem, this autumn, 1t cannot
ignore the fact that Jewish DPS are conclu-
slvely linked with Holy Land settlement by any
yardstick of humanitarian motivations.

Reactions to News from Palestine
To the Editor Of The Star:
I should like to make a few comments on the
inquiry OF John Green, printed July 80, As to
why when funds are being solicited for needy
Jews throughout the world considerable sum
should have been expended for q full-page
announcement Of the death Of William Bern
stein.
am not q spokesman for the sponsors OF
the ad but speaking as an individual, I can see
some very excellent reasoning to justify the
insertion of the ad. It's sponsors, Americans
for Haganah, Inc. are aware OF the need 70
rehabilitate Jews spiritually and morally. as
well as physically They know that for large
parts of the needy Jews Europe and the
Orient today, this can only be accomplished
by allowing them to live in their own nome
land-Palestine- than forcing them
again to become part OF a minority elsewhere
For this reason, the members of Americans for
Haganah, Inc, are engaged in helping the hight
to enable Jews to 60 to Palestine, leaving their
present relief needs to other worthy organi-
cations. .
With this aim in mind, nothing could be
more fitting, in my opinion. than the ex-
penditure of funds to bring to the American
people the case Of an American Jewish seaman,
one who fought for freedom during the Second
World War, was continuing the fight on one Of
its fronts today and who was slain by the
British Navy upon his ship on the high
seas. Americans for Haganah have faith
enough in the justice and humanity of the
American people to know thss by bringing
such a case to them, they are investing In one
of the most precious commodities In the world
the Righteousness and sympathy Of q free
people. CELIA WICks.

NEW REFUSE TRUCK

 FOR PETERSON co.

Now doing duty cn the streets of Juneau is the new 1948 model gar bage truck of the Peterson Refuse Co.,, which arrived last week from
 attle. Fitted with a specially de- signed "Gar-Wood Load Packer

 Ucmp.etely closed in so Chat TO litter can escape, the dump truck also possesses an automatically op- erated door to the refuse compart- .nent and an interior compressor .ction which reduces the contents to fraction of it's original bulk and permits hauling a compressed -uu If nIne cut yards.
 An additional feature O. impor- tance permitted oy the compressor mechanism is the reduced overall street displacement of the new ve- hicle, which occupies little more of the road than the ordinary pas senger car.
