Science Foundation to Provide
Funds for Research Advocated

The armed forces finance re-
search in various universities with
out restricting the civilian scien-
lists who are doing the work. But
because the military favors such
projects as may be OF value In war
fare, the direction of research in
general is being changed, Prof.
Kirkpatrick contended
This means, he said, that less
pure research would be done. that
since progress depends on basic re-
search rather than on the kind
which seeks to apply discoveries
already made. the fundamentals for
new advances will be neglected.
Prof. Kirkpatrick said, the estab-
hshment OF a National Science
Foundation to provide financial sup-
port for research would remedy the
situation He said new bin would
be pressed in Congress to set up
such an agency.

Democratic Orators
Call Truman Sound,
AssaiI Republicans
BY the Assoeioted Press

Democratic orators, looking ahead
to the 1948 election, praised Presi-
dent Truman last night as great
President" and tore into the Repub-
licans with charges of bungling and
promise breaking.
Senator Myers. Democrat, OF
Pennsylvania, at Detroit; Senator
Kilgore, Democrat, of West Virginia
at Omaha, and Gael Sullivan, execu-
tive director of the Democratic Ma
tional Committee, at Boston, poured
it on with as much vigor as though
the presidential election were next
month instead of next year.
The speeches were part of the
continuing Jefferson Day" series
of meetings designed to raise funds
and arouse feryor for candidates OF
the party of Thomas Jefferson,
whose birthday was last month.
Senator Myers predicted that 'if
President Truman agrees to rum
for reelection, Pennsylvania and
Michigan will go Democratic.
HE is a good, sound, plain speak
ing, sincere, patriotic American
doing beautifully" Senator Myers
continued.
Its a peculiarly wonderful thing
about America that in times of
crisis we have always had rising
to the top men in whom we could
put our trust in leading us through
to better America. Right now,
Harry Truman is that man.
Senator Myers said sof the Re-
publicans:
'The mission of the Republican
Party, now that it is in control of
Congress, is to SOW such chaos and
confusion into our national economy
as to invite a thoroughly going dis
location, and once that happens,
then the Republicans would scream,
Look what Truman did,
THE Republican Party, with the
aid of a small minority of reaction
ary Democrats, succeeded last year
in torpedoing President Truman's
cautious and sensible reconversion
program. 1t admits now that prices
are outrageously high.
so what is the Republican Party
doing about it? 1t is lowering taxes
for the rich"
Senator Kilgore hailed President
Truman in these words:
Our great President is ably carry
ing out his pledge to do in all cases
from day to day :. what seems to
me to be for the welfare of all of our
people
President Truman has offered
the nation sound, progressive pro-
gram"
Of Republicans, Senator Kilgore
said:
Day by day their juggling act
grows more ridiculous.
The Republicans made a great
many foolish and lofty promises
last fall. In an effort to win votes,
they promised a great many things
they cannot deliver. The Republi-
cans fooled a great many people last
fall, but they aren't fooling them to-
day."

Herded Back to Cell.
With the aid of tear gas the men
were herded back to their respec-

tinued throughout the night.
At o'clock this morning the
Kansas City police received call
for tear gas, and a second call two
hours later. This was the first
word outside of the military post
of the trouble.
Joseph T. Bowen, veteran Fort
Leavenworth fire chief, was given
a large measure of credit for per-
suading the men in cell block 7 to
surrender.
He forced his way into riot
gallery, rigged up two lines of hose,
| and called down to the men ad-
vising them to surrender, telling
them he was prepared to turn on
the water. The men said they
were ready, and asked for in
structions
Chief Bowen relayed the mes
sag to the guards, who instructed
the men to come out into the open
in groups of five and strip.
Gen. Gerow took newspaper men
on a tour of the prison. The smell
of tear gas was evident, but it was
not sufficiently concentrated at
