From England comes also the
M aypole celebration, an event
which evolved from the Roman
dance around the statue of Flora.
The English Maypole, which was
usually the largest tree in the for
est, cut for the express purpose
and dragged from the woods by
as many as twenty horses, was
praised by Washington Irving as
being one of the gayest sights he
had ever witnessed.
Oddly enough the May Day cele-
bration was banned in America
by the Puritan settlers. Governor
Endicott of Massachusetts, on see
ing a Maypole, is said to have
chopped it down himself.
And so, today throughout Ameri-
ca and every European country.
the coming of the May is celebrat-
ed with flowers, dances, and page
ants.

Tomorrow will be the happiest

Eisenhower Calls Planes
Factor in Civilization
BY the Associated Press

COLUMBUS. Ohio, Sept. TO-
Mankind must decide whether air
power shall advance civilization or
destroy it," Gen. Dwight D. Eisen-
hover, Army Chief of staff, said
last night.
There is room in the world for
all the men who inhabit it and its
natural wealth is enough to sustain
them," he told the first annual con-
vention of the Air Force Association.
I'm the plane we have the means
and the instrument by which we
can open vast areas hitherto locked
against men by nature, we have a
carrier of goods for men that recog-
nizes no barrier too wide or too
high for its withdrawing mission. u
Before 1900 cheering delegates,
Gen. Eisenhower said the United
States possessed commanding lead
in its ability to produce and per-
form but "for our own security we
either maintain that position or we
lapse into a potential target of
aerial destruction
Preceding Gen. Eisenhower's
speech, Gen. Carl Spaatz, COM
handing general of the Army Air
Forces, told the convention that
on the members of the Air Force
Association falls the task of spread
ing the faith" of air power.
The convention continues through
today, with an address by Justice
Jackson of the Supreme Court. the
major speech on the program.

By Thomas R. Henry
Stor Stoff Correspondent

NEW YORK, Sept. 16.-Billion-
volt atom smashers, with five times
the punch of an exploding uranium
atom, already are in the design
stage, the convention of the Amer
lean Chemical Society was told last
night.
They may enable man to create
matter out of energy, just as matter
is converted into energy in the
atomic bomb explosion.
Science then will be able to dupli-
cate on small scale the processes
by which the primeval particles OF
matter-protons, electrons and neu-
trons-are created in the cosmos.
This startling development of the
not too distant future, which will
mean entrance into an energy realm
about as far above that of plutonium
explosion as this was above any
form of energy known in the past,
was forecast by DR.. Glenn T. Sea-
borg of the University of California,
who is credited with the first pro-
duction of plutonium five years ago
Two Already Planned.
One machine calculated to &C
celerate primary particles such as
neutrons with forces exceeding a
billion electron volts is planned for
the Brookhaven Laboratory OF the
Atomic Energy Commission on the
old site of Camp Upton, L. I. An
other has entered the stage of pre-
liminary design at the University OF
California. Both are on the basic
cyclotron pattern, but with vastly
greater potentialities than anything
now IN existence.
All this will mean, DR.. Seaborg
pointed out, that men will have en-
tered a new area of energy beyond
that of atomic fission which stops
at about 200, 100000 electron volts
a stage at which only the disintegra-
ton of matter on :. limited scale is
possible.
Under the law of mass-energy
equivalence first proposed by Prof
Albert Einstein and applied in the
atomic bomb, matter is energy at
rest in the form of nuclear particles.
A very minute amount of this mat
ter becomes energy again in the
nuclear explosion of the atomic
bomb.
Enormous Amounts of Energy.
The apparent great difficulty OF
reversing the process comes from
the enormous amounts of energy
required. Thus, DR. Seaborg point
ed out, a single neutron or proton,
the particles making up the atomic
nucleus. is the mass equivalent to
about a billion volts. In nature
they apparently are produced only
in pairs-so at least 1900, 1000, 900
volts would be required. 1t might
be necessary to accelerate particles
with force of close to 5000, 900, 900
volts before any actual conversion
of energy to mass could be expected,
he believes.
One conversion of this kind,
however, may be close at hand.
Cosmic rays, entering the earths
outer atmosphere with energies
hitherto unduplicable on earth, pro-
duce mysterious material particles

RIP. Lamont S Daughter
Divorces T.. (. SaItzman

Mrs. Gertrude Lamont Saltzman
daughter of former Secretary OF
Commerce Robert P. Lamont, was
granted a divorce yesterday from
Charles E. Saltzman, recently ap-
pointed Assistant Secretary OF
State, according to dispatch from
Reno, New.
Mr.. Saltzman, former vice presi-
dent of the New York Stock Ex-
change and wartime brigadier
general. took Office September 2 as
assistant secretary for occupied
areas. He is responsible for formula
ton OF American policy in Germany
Japan, Korea and Austria.
Mrs. Saltzman charged mental
cruelty. The couple has one child,
and the divorce was accompanied by
an agreement as to custody, support
and property Settlement.
The Lamont-Saltzman wedding
