1t is an indication of the state
of the world today that every time
someone makes a suggestion for
world disarmament, it is received
espectfully-but with complete
pessimism as to the possibility of
achieving it. No sane man can
help but be appalled, by the cost
of the worlds present military es-
adjustments, or by their obvious
threat to a prolonged peace. But
the hope that something tangible
can be done to cure this-a hope
that was held high at the end of
. World War lis almost totally
lacking now. The truth is that the
world is actively engaged in an
armament race which is of an un-
precedented character.
In the last war, there were only
two major new weapons-the ato-
mic bomb and the German guided
. missiles. All other weapons sim
ply represented developments of
lethal instruments which had long
been in existence and involved no
revolutionary principles. Some ba-
/. sic weapons, such as the rifle,
have been essentially unchanged
! in generations. And even block
buster is simply an evolutionary
, advance on the small aerial bombs
of the first war
+. Today's armament race does not
. follow the classic pattern of at
! tempting to produce and store
) more standard weapons than the
competing nations. It's emphasis
is largely on new weapons. AS a
s consequence, much of the race is
being run in the laboratories
rather than in the munitions fac
: tories.
This, of course, is particularly
true of atomic weapons. Our ato-
! mic bomb plants are still going al
! full capacity, and the work being
Z done is as completely shrOuded IL
) secrecy as in wartime. The Rus
= slams are known to have put &
number of the leading German
: nuclear physicists to work on ato
( mic research, and to have given i
: number l priority among their owl
: scientists. No one outside of Rus
! ala knows Just how much progress
has been made.

Baltimore County police said they

At one point, police reported, the
vehicle appeared destined for a
certain crackup as it raced down a
dead-end street. Instead, it hurtled
a barricade, continued through an
open field and emerged on Butter
nut street. Pvts. Nolan and Senes
followed in their car.
Coming down Piney Branch road
at an O-mile-an-hour clip, the car
attempted to turn into Thirteenth

a telephone pole, a light pole, and
came to rest after hitting a tree.
The youth jumped out, apparently
uninjured, and fled. Police picked
up the chase on foot.
AS the youth, ignoring commands
to halt. ran across a lot, Pvt. Nolan
fired. AS the shot rang out, the
fleeing driver tripped and police
grabbed him as he sprawled on the
around. He was taken to No. II

Land of Vanishing Men.
This is the land of vanishing men.
A companion walking few feet
away in broad daylight suddenly
becomes invisible, like an evaporat-
ing ghost, although his converSa-
ton continues without break. He
is a disembodied voice. A moment
later, the vanished man may reap
pear, floating in the air a few feet
above your eyes. This is the strang-
est manifestation of common
phenomenon reported only in the
Antarctic, and until now completely
unexplained.
DR.. Paul Siple of Washington,
scientific adviser of the expedition,
has conducted experiments to ex-
plain it by multiple reflection" "a
physical behavior of light that is not
mentioned in any physics textbooks.
Due to the same principle, men here
get badly sunburned on the bottoms
of their chins, and stagger over the
snow like drunks.
This vanishing phenomenon is
also believed to be responsible for
crash of the plane here few weeks
ago in which three lives were lost.
The phenomenon appears only on
a dull day, with an overcast of
whitish clouds. DR.. Siple believes
it is due to the fact that light Is
accumulated in the air here just
as heat is accumulated in green
house in ordinary latitudes.
