Then Miss Truman laughed: II
belong to a union, so I got special

US. Becoming Independent
In Research, So|berg Says

The United States has made a
good start towards independence in
scientific research, Rear Admiral
T. A. Solberg, chief of the Office
of Naval Research, told the Amer
lean Council of Commercial Labo-
ratories at a banquet at the May
flower last night.
Previously, he said, Eve have de-
pended largely on foreign sources
for scientific information and on
our own industry for developments
rising out Of that research"
Since the war, he said, these
foreign sources have become meager
or non-existent and this country
has had to undertake it's own re-
search on a major scale, he said.
AS a result, industries have greatly
enlarged their own research depart
ments and there is an increasing CO.
operation between them and the
Government and university labora-
tories.
A need of the future, Admiral
Solberg stressed, is greater coopera-
ton among the basic sciences them
selves. This is one of the objectives
of the Office of Naval Research, as
we'll as to support and coordinate
projects in universities and indus
tries,

81 Doctors Licensed
For Virginia Practice
BY the Assoeiofed Press

RICHMOND, Va, Dec. 4.-The
State Board of Medical Examiners
has licensed 81 applicants to prac-
tice medicine in Virginia by recip-
rocity, board spokesman said yes
terday.
Dr. Kenneth D. Graves, Roanoke,
board secretary, said the board had
discussed the matter of borderline
reciprocity for doctors in the Dis
trict of Columbia.
A recent opinion of the Virginia
Attorney General held the Virginia
code does not provide for border
line reciprocity.
DR.. Graves explained borderline
reciprocity this way: A Virginia
licensed doctor may make applica-
ton and pay 81 and be allowed to
practice in the District of Columbia
The Virginia law, however, does
not provide for such a reciprocity
license but permits a doctor licensed
in the District of Columbia to prac-
tice anywhere in Virginia after
making application and paying q
$50 fee.
DR.. Graves said the matter came
before the board earlier when the
of the District of Colum-
bia Board of Medical Examiners
made inquiry whether Washington
doctors could be permitted to prac-
tice in northern Virginia.
