HoIifieId Condemns
Character Assassins,
Praises DR.. Condor
~ The Assoeiatsd Press

The reputation of DR.. Edward U
Condor, director of the National
Bureau of Standards and atomic
bomb scientist, was upheld yester-
day by Representative Holiieid
Democrat OF California, who called
on ''rumor- -mongering character as
ssssins" to put up or shut up"
In a House speech, Mr. Hoifield
declared:
1T begins to appear that some
one is making concerted effort to
discredit the atomic bomb scientists
and in particular those who last
year supported the President and
his program for establishing civil
ian atomic energy commission"
Mr.. Holifield devoted most of his
speech to paragraph by-para-
graph analysis of Washington
newspaper (Times- Herald story of
July II which said DR.. Condor
would be called before the House
Committee on Un-American activi-
ties for questioning about Russian
A bomb know how"
Newspaper Story Quoted.
Mr.. Holifield quoted the story as
saying, The committee feels his
contacts with Russian scientists and
pro- o-Communist sympathizers in this
country would qualify him for CIV
ing this type of testimony.
Then Mr.. Holifleld quoted from
what he said was a letter written
June "a by DR.. Frank B. Jewett,
president of the National Academy
of Sciences. to George Merck, Re-
publican finance chairman in New
Jersey.
The letter discussed Liberty and
American Magazine articles written
by Representative Thomas. Repub-
liean, of New jersey, chairman of
the Un-American Activities Com
mittee, and said:
Il think it is high time that some
OF you in the New Jersey Republican
high command let Mr.. Thomas know
that articles like these are harmful
and do neither the Nation nor the
Party any good. I am
particularly incensed at his Con-
don's} treatment by Thomas in
these articles"
Chosen As Delegate.
Mr.. Holifield returned to the
story and told his col
leagues it said DR.. Condor was in
vited secretly" by the Russians to
the 220th anniversary Of the Russian
Academy of Sciences in Moscow in
l945.
Mr.. Holifield commented:
''Dr. Condor was not invited by
the Russians. secretly or in any
other way. He was chosen as a
delegate of the Science Committee
Of the National Council of Ameri-
can-Soviet Friendship and the
Institute of Physics"
In 1914 and 1945 when Russia
was our ally" he continued, the
council included. among others,
Senator's Thomas, Democrat, of
Utah; Capper. Republican, of Kan

Il looked around and Dad wasn't
beside me-" said young Meek. A
few minutes I heard him moaning
and managed to get myself free
(his safety belt caught in some
branches) and crawled about 20
feet to where he was lying.
His right eye was closed and his
left leg was so badly broken that
1t seemed to be just hanging by
the skin.
Then the youth began the long,
torturous journey down the noun
tain. He said he first began follow
ing a power line, but found the going
too rocky, and at last reached a
road on the side Of the mountain.
There he apparently lost con-
sciousness shortly after reaching
the road and remained all night.
Finally reviving yesterday he con-
tinued the journey to the home
of Mrs. Clarence Beistline, who
summoned medical aid and called

Melting Glacier May Curb
Biq Alaskan Forest Fire
~ the Assoeioted Press


SEWARD, Alaska, July 23.-Fire
fighters expressed hope today that
the gigantic Kenai Peninsula fire
would create its own fire extin-
guisher" in one area by melting
glacial snow and ice.
Should the fire rage down the
Resurrection River Valley, near the
glacier there. the high humidity
and air moisture content might serve
as a stopper" for the flames over a
15-mile radius, leaders said. A
smaller fire in the same area sew
eral years ago was reported con-
trolled in that way.
The peninsula fire already has
burned thousands of acres of timber
land.
No imminent danger exists for this
coastal city, the United States For
estry Service said. Natural barriers
OF mountains and river should pre-
vent the fire spreading this far. A
protective fire block has also been
completed around Kenai, a fishing
village.

Newsprint Committee
Sees Bigger Supply
And Lower Prices
BY the Associofed Press

The House Newsprint Committee
held out to the Nations publishers
today the hope of lower newsprint
prices and more newsprint in the
near future.
In a report to the House the COM
mittee, headed by Representative
Brown, Republican of Ohio, said
paper and newsprint prices ARE al
ready at their peak" and there is no
justification for any further paper
price increases"
Instead, it Is the belief of the
committee that If there are any
changes in paper prices during the
next few months they should be
lower rather than higher"
New. Sources Sought.
The committee called for explora-
ton of new sources of paper supply,
particularly in the South, criticized
Federal agencies for excessive use
of paper; and announced plans for
conferences In Canada within the
next few months to discuss the
paper situation.
1t said there Is a possibility that
the South can support newsprint
industry to provide from 1900, 600
to 1000, 900 tons of newsprint an
nually If proper reforestation is fol-
lowed.
There also are possibilities for
establishing paper and newsprint
mills in the Rocky Mountain area
and in Alaska, the committee said.
1t disclosed plans for these studies
in addition to its conferences in
Canada:
l. Possibilities of establishing
newsprint and paper plants in
Alaska and of producing paper from
scrub oak in the South.
: 2. A study of q pilot plant estab-,
lished near Savannah, Ga, to de-
termine production costs of new
production processes.
Reclamation Studied.
,. New processes for de-inking
and reusing waste paper.
4. An investigation of the use OF
newsprint and paper by Federal
agencies as a result of evidence that
there has been "a wanton waste"
During the first six months of
1947, the committee said, news
print production in the United
States, Canada and Newfoundland
amounted to 2,7s7,231 tons while
consumption in the United States
alone was 2,357 ,037 tons.
The committee praised publisher
groups for voluntarily cooperating
to cope with the shortage and said
that as q result not single United
States newspaper had been forced to
suspend publication because of lack
of newsprint.
1t criticized, without mentioning
any names, "a few suppliers" who
charged "unconscionsble prices"
Its long-range objective, the COM
mittee reported, Is to end the news
print shortage by encouraging pro-
duction.
Tt claimed partial responsibility
for having expanded production by
450, 900 tons annually and said there
Is a strong probability that some
200, 900 tons of additional" produc-
tion capacity will be arranged for
within the next few months.

DIR. Condor has worked with
great energy and competence
throughout the war on scientific
developments of the utmost i'm

services were in great demand

My feeling Is that If there Is

him, that person Is almost guilty
Of treason in not having come for

HaIsey Says He Erred
During Leyte Battle in
Anger Over Message
BY ths Assoeiotsd Prsss

NEW YORK, July 23.-Admiral
william r.. Halsey, U. 8. NJ, retired,
says he still believes he made q mis-
take in the Battle of Leyte Gulf
during a moment Of anger ignited
by what he mistakenly thought was
an insult from Admiral Chester w.
.Nimitz, commander in chief of the
Pacific Fleet.
Admiral Halsey recalled the events
In an article in this weeks Satur-
day Evening Post.
The time was late October, 1914.
Admiral Halsey was then Sd Fleet
commander. Three Japanese task
forces were trying to smash Gen.
MacArthur's landing at Leyte.
Third Fleet planes attacked and
damaged the central enemy force.
Vice Admiral Thomas C. Kinkaid's
7th Fleet took on the Southern jap
anese force at Surigao Strait. Ad-
miral Halsey's ships and planes then
went after the northern japanese
units. Meanwhile, units of the CEN
tral enemy force went on to at
tack Admiral Kinkaid's ships. sink
ing an escort carrier, two de-
streyers and destroyer escort.
Got Message From Nimitz.
Admiral Halsey's planes sank one
carrier, hit two others and a light
cruiser. His big ships in Task Force
"a were closing in and were only AZ
miles from bringing the Japanese
vessels under fire when Admiral
Halsey received message from Ad-
miral Nimitz.
The message read: The whole
world wants to know where is Task
Force a."
Admiral Halsey said ne was
stunned, then few into a rage be-
cause he considered the wording of
the message an insult" Later
however, he discovered that the
words the whole world wants to
know" we're inserted by communi-
cations officer as the padding in
tended to make messages more
difficult for the japanese to decode.
The phrase was not Admiral
: Nimitz', Admiral Halsey learned, but
lit sounded 50 Internally plausible
that my decoders read it as valid
part of the message. Chester blew
ZIP when I told him about 1t; he
tracked down the little squirt and
chewed him to bits, but 1t was too
late; the damage was done.
The orders I now gave, gave in
rage. And although Ernie King
admiral Ernest J. King, then chief
of naval operations) later assured
me that they were the right ones,
I am convinced that they were not.
Admiral Halsey ordered units Of
Task Force "a south to help Ad-
miral Kinkaid Lighter units con-
tinued the northern chase and only
two of the II enemy ships escaped
damage or sinking.
For me, one of the biggest battles
N the war was OFF and what has
been called the Battle of Bulls Run
was on" he comments.
In his article, Admiral Halsey OBJ
served that the American Navy in
the Pacific had one basic weakness.
Although our naval power in the
Western Pacific was such that we
could have challenged the COM
bined fleets OF the world" he said,
"the fact that it was not CO.
ordinated under any single authority
was an. invitation which disaster
nearly accepted.
What brought us victory instead
was simply this: All hands thought
alike. And that we did so Is a
tribute to our indoctrination in the
United States Navy"
