Here How
 About Mars

MCDONALD OBSERVATORY. FORT DAVE. Tex. Fee. ls.--R The green spots on Mars may be some lower form of plant life.
 But they are not plants like the earth's trees and grass.
 Astronomers at Mcdonald Observ- vatory last night failed to give flat answer to the intriguing ques- tion of whether there is life on Mars but pr. Gerard P. Kuiper Director of the Observatory, listed several known factors for and against the possibility.
 For:
 l. There is some water.
 2 The temperatures are not too cold
 Against
 So far, 1t appears the deadly ultra violet rays of the sun would kill any form of plant growth.
 The observations have been aided by use of a new infra-red spectro- meter which was not available until the end of tn war.
 The conclusion that the green spots are neither seed plants nor ferns the two highest forms ot plant life-was reached by comparing infra-red photographs Of such earth plants with those of the verdant areas of Mars, Dr. Kuiper explained

MOSCOW, Feb. l8.LR>-Exper- fenced observers of the Moscow scene prcfessed today their belief that the hand of Prime Minister Ssalin definitely can be detected in authorship of recent Soviet accusa- tions against the western powers.
 They said the tone particularly of the fourth and last section of the Soviet Informations Bureaus statement entitled 'Falsiiers of History" was highly authoritative. This section. they added, seemed to show decided traces of the phraseology usually associated with Stalin.
 Stalin has been exceptionally busy since he returned to Mos ccw in December from his vacation. The Soviet leader, who celebrated his cath birthday December 2l, has appeared in public twice and re ceived foreign guests five times in the past month.
 He has been seen with more frequency than usual by foreign CTS. They have reported him in excellent health.
