EVANSTON. ILL.,, Jan. 10 - up
Don't let it get you down if you
don't know where to look when
somebody says, 'look at the Nimshi

Falk Johnson, Northwestern Uni,
versity English instructor, believes
such talk will slide into the limbo
of unuttered things in the years
ahead.
A Nimshi On the Tikiteet - as
any New Englander schooled il
are Yankee expressions knows -
means a girl on the sofa.
Johnson, a transplanted North

regionalisms in the American

NAVY TO SCUTTLE
GUINEA PIC ships
Bikini Fleet Menace To
Life, Boston Newspaper
Article Declares

BOSTON. Jan. 19-WH-The Bos-
ton Herald said today in a copy
right story that the Navy is going
to scuttle its Bikini atomic flee
because the bombed ships are toc
"hot" to be allowed to remain
afloat.
The ships that appeared to sur
vive two atomic blasts in the
Pacific atoll last summer actually
did not survive" the Herald said.
They are contaminated beyond
hope. They cannot even be used
for scrap"
The Navy has decided to tow
the striker vessels into deep water
and open their seacocks, the news
paper reported.
"a few days ago, the former
Nazi Cruiser Prinz Eugen, which
had her plates damaged in the
second Bikini test, rolled over and
sank" the story went on. 1.-The
Eugen merely got a head start on
her fellow guinea pigs, and perhaps
a preferred position in Davy Jones'
locker"
The Herald said the Navy had
been reluctant to disclosing its
plan because it feared adverse
public reaction to such wholesale
destruction of ships by atomic
power.
Two Vessels Sink
The newspaper gave this ac-
count of what happened at BIZ
KIM:
Under the impact Of two plu-
tonium bombs, a few vessels in a
task force widely dispersed in the
lagoon ere sunk. Several others,
including the Prinz Eugen, were
damaged so severely that they
vent down later. The rest-and this
IS the significant feature-were SO
contaminated by radiation as to
be effectively killed
Efforts to clean the ships by
washing them have failed, the
Herald said.
THE paint and even the steel
on the decks and bulkheads are
poisoned. Geiger counters show
a steady emission of alpha par
tlcles-charged cores of helium
atoms that are emitted by the ra-
dioactive materials 49,.
AT the moment, Navy personnel
may board the vessels safely, since
the alpha particles Of themselves
r not deadly. But the ships can
not be worked. A blowtorch an
pied for the purpose of removing
paint or scrapping a vessel will va.
porlze the contamination and cause
oeath. The ships constitute a con-
tlnulng menace to human life"

IT, S. Public Shows Little Sympathy
For Principle of The Closed Shop
nv GEORGE GALLUP
Director, American Institute
of Public Opinion

PRINCETON, N. j., Jan. IL -
Union leaders trying to ward OH
labor control legislation in the new
Congress face n serious handicap
SO far as public opinion Is con-
cerned.
MANY of the most fundamental
policies and benefits of organized
labor have never been generally
accepted by the public. The closed
shop is n of the most notable ex-
amples.
Senator Balls bill to restrict the
closed shop has met with furious
union opposition, and difficult
sailing has been predicted for it
in Congress. Yet the fact is that
only one voter in twelve through
out the country approves the prIn-
cipal of the closed shop. Only n
in four favors either the closed
or the union shop.
The majority express them
selves in favor of the open shop.
Labor's failure to enlist public
backing for so fundamental a
policy as the closed shop has had
many repercussions. For one thing,
it has undoubtedly at times caus-
ed the public to be unsympathetic
towards strikes called to enforce
compulsory union membership.
The test of public sentiment on
the closed shop was made by the
Institute with the use of this ques-
ton
(Which one Of the three types Of
shop do you prefer - the Closed
Shop, the Union Shop, the Open
Shop"
Each type of shop was explain
ed to the people interviewed with
the use of a card, as follows:
/. The Closed Shop - requiring
every worker in a company to be-
long to a union before he can be
hired.
2. The Union Shop - requiring
every worker in a company where
there is a union to join that union
after he is hired.
8. The Open Shop not requir-
ing any worker to join a union, but
letting each n decide whether
or not to join.

The Wilmington morning star., 1947-01-20

Among union members polled in
the survey the majority preferred
the closed shop or union shop to
the open shop. However, the pref
erance is not marked, being in the
ratio Of 5-to-4.
