BIKINI NATIVES
BUILD NEW HOME
Driven Away By Atomic
Tests, They Move 800
Miles Southwest

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 10.
The native colony of Bikini,
that is to be moved to Ujelang
Island f ter their unsuccessful
transfer from the atom : bomb
test site to neighboring Ron
jerk, will set up housekeeping
this time more than 300 miles
southwest of their original
home, notes the National Geo.
graphic Society.
There, they will once more
drive palm posts into the sand
for the skeleton structure of
their simple houses. Dried palm
and pandanus leaves will be
woven into mating for the
walls, and dried palm fronds
set over all for a steeply-
matched roof.
When the water cisterns for
collecting rainfall are ready,
the cooking pits dug, and small
tentlike mating covers made
available to protect the fires
from d d downpour, the
transported Bikinians will have
made a good start toward the
few homemaking essentials for
South Sea life.
Ujelang Island, which the 1e
migrants are reported to have
chosen in preference to other
sites, is the farthest west of the
formerly Japanese = inundated
Marshall group.
A low coral atoll, enclosing ar
oval lagoon about 10 miles long,
it is about the same size as
Ronjerik. Both Ronjerik and
Ujelang have less than half as
much land spread as Bikini.
Ronjerik, however, had the re-
cent disadvantage of a destruc-
tive fire in it's coconut groves,
a natural resource in that part
of the world which not only pro-
vides shelter but also food and
other raw materials.
Bikini, Ronjerik, and Ujelang
all lie in the northern, less
favored half of the Marshalls.
In 1870 Ujelang was completely
washed over by a great sea
wave. The survivors migrated
to another spot, and the island
was temporarily uninhablted.

Closing Of Bainbridge
By Navy Is Protested
BY The Assoeiaisd Press

PORT DEPOSIT, Md. Jan. H.
Residents OF the Port Deposit area
have asked their new Representa-
tive in Congress to intercede on the
Nays decision to shut down its
Bainbridge recruit training station.
The 1,100-acre station, taken over
by the Navy in 1912, now has about
800 buildings and there are nearly
1000 men In training.
Navy training spokesmen at the
Great Lakes Naval Training Center
indicated last night that, because
Of budget cuts, Bainbridge probably
would be placed on "caretaker
status" by July.
In Washington today, Represent
ative Miller, Republican, of Mary
land, wrote letter to Secretary of
Navy Forrestal suggesting that con-
sideration be given to continue use
Of the $50, ,000, 900 station.
This is a matter of vital interest
to people of that locality" he wrote.
Prior to this time, there ap-
parently had been no indication of
discontinuance of this station and
local interests feel that information
in advance Of the closing of the sta
tion would have been desirable"
