Tor generations Is widely accepted as explain
Ing their size, also inbreedng of the original
stock
Q. Are mountainous areas free of hay feyer7

Stors, Men and Atoms

Fourth OF series OF articles describing
the progress being made in kaleidoscope
research
Science today needs, above ALL new tools for
research and when it has them it must learn
to use them
The situation following the war often has
been compared to that of man who draws
the savings of lifetime out of the bank to
meet an emergency He survives, intact but
penniless Before him is the dreary prospect
of pinching pennies again.
But already good start has been made. and
of all the new tools placed in the hands of re-
search workers the ng-lived, radioactive car
bon IA promises to be one of the most important.
Although primarily Of value in biology its use
fulness appears to extend into almost every
field of investigation and is limited only by the
ingenuity of the workers.
A striking example has just been reported to
the Atomic Energy Commission by the Good
year Tire and Rubber Co. One of its products
is an extremely thin elastic sheet This is
about thousandth of an inch thick. Standards
are quite rigid. The thickness cannot be al
lowed to vary in either direction much more
than a ten-thousandth of an inch. The prod
uct is manufactured by a continuous chain
operation.
Extreme Precision Necessary.
Now, measuring any yielding material to an
accuracy of ten thousandth of an inch Is
just within the limits of the possibilities of any
gauge known to the industry. Also the con-
tnuous operation must be halted frequently
for check-ups.
Carbon IA changes all this The electrons
it emits 60 through the thin sheet and, by
knocking planetary electrons from the atoms of
the atmosphere above 1t, produce tiny electric
current. This varies with the number Of cleo
irons that get through, and this depends in
turn on the thickness of the wall they must
penetrate. A difference of -thousandth of
an inch causes big change in the amount of
electricity produced. The measurement is con-
tinuous, Every inch of the sheet being pro-
duced is measured, instead of occasional sam
piles. At no thine is there any need to halt
the operation. Differences of hundred thou
sandth of an inch are easily detected, the
Goodyear engineers report. With little more
refinement. they say. the error can be reduced
to about q millionth of an inch
Among the most significant biological ac-
complishments is the synthesis of radioactive
vitamins by University of California scientists
working at the birthplace of the atomic bomb,
the Los Alamos laboratory of the Atomic En-
ergy Commission. During the past six months
they have synthesized four of the most i'm
portant-nicotinc acid which is used in the
treatment OF pellagra and a half dozen other
diseases; nicotinamde, a variation Of the
natural vitamin which is widely used in
medicine; p-amino-benzoic acid, the much
publicized anti-grey-hair vitamin which is used
in treatment Of various anemias; and anthra-

To contemplate the proposed SIS plan as a
permanent affair is a step backward in my
opinion.

.HyattsviI|e Adopts
Civil Service Plan

A civil service system for munich
pal employees in Hyattsville was
adopted last night by the City
Council.
Under the new system, an en-
ploye can be discharged for dis
loyalty to the United States. Other
provisions included merit system
of promotion, methods of selecting
employees, specified working hours
and pay, holidays, vacation and sick
leave.
The plan allots annual leave at
the rate of one day per month and
sick leave at half day a month.
Annual leave is limited to 18 days,
and all employees coming under the
new plan are required to join the
Maryland Retirement System.
The system covers employees in the
police and fire departments, engi-
neer's ONCE, clerical employees and
labor forces.
The council set July 13 as the date
for public hearing on possibly en-
actment OF a business license tax
and proposed parking meters. John
T. Norman, vice president OF the
Hyattsviue Business and Professional
Mems Association declared that his
group is opposed to the business tax.
