of the United Nations Security
Council not involved in the Ber-
lin crisis were reported today
to be solidly in favor of raising
the Soviet blockade.
An authoritative source said that
was the first reaction of the six
countries at caucus yesterday after
the United States, Britain and
France presented their charges
against Russia to the full Council.
The Western powers charged that
the Berlin blockade threatens world
peace.
The six neutrals are expected to
preesnt a resolution next week call
ing on Russia to lift the blockade,
Informed sources said.
Only the Soviet Ukraine backs
Russia in the Berlin dispute. Syria,
Colombia, Argentina, China. Bel
gium and Canada are reported
solidly behind the Big Three West
ern powers charge that the block
ade menaces world peace.
No Resolution Drafted Yet.
Thus far the authoritative source
said, no resolution has been drafted,
but the six neutral" members feel
the first requirement in easing the
crisis is for the Russians to lift the
blockade.
A British source said last night
that representatives of the three
Western powers met Informally and
considered the first steps of framing
a proposal that the Security Council
call on Russia to lift the blockade.
One source said the United States
feels 1t is too early to present the
Council with resolution demanding
action. The Americans were said to
feel they must hear first from other
Council members, and that the
resolution should come from one of
the neutrals.
The Council is expected to meet
again Saturday or Monday to con-
tinue the debate on Berlin.
The Security Council members
not involved in Berlin studied the
Western charges. They had no Rus
sian counterclaims to study, how
ever. Soviet Deputy Foreign Min
lister Andrei Y. Vishinsky sat silent
in the Council chamber yesterday,
carrying out his avowed intention
not to take part in the Berlin dis
cussion.
Reds Deny Blockade Exists.
Lifting of the blockade is the
price the Western powers demand
for agreeing to a four power For
eign Ministers Council meeting on
the Berlin and general German
questions. The Russians consist
entity have maintained that the
Berlin case is one for the Big -Four
to discuss, and not for the United
Nations.
Mr.. Vishinsky also has contended
hat, actually. no blockade exists in
Berlin.
All three nations told the Council
yesterday that they will be willing
to meet in the Foreign Ministers
Council when the blockade is aised
DR.. Philip C. Jessup, American
deputy delegate, told the Council
however, that the United States will
resist firmly Russian threats Of force
aimed at compelling the Americans
to abandon Berlin to Red rule.
Moscow Radio Hits Allies.
Meanwhile, Moscow radio COM
mentator accused the Western pow
ers of pursuing a policy Of ce-
liberately ignoring the Foreign Min
listers Council in solving various
international problems"
v. Linetsky, in a broadcast heard
In London early today, said they
prefer to circumvent the Council

ton, which they themselves have
artificially created"

immune from insect attack.
The statement was made that in view Of the
effect Of this chemical in making plants sys-
temically toxic to insects, further research may
develop new products that will be similarly
effective but much safer to use.
The talk concluded with the statement that
the Potomac Rose Society, after reviewing the
current state of development Of new inseci-
cides, has decided not to make use Of any OF
them this year, but that tests would be con-
Quoted by individual members with some of
the new chemicals. In view of the necessity
for controlling red spider mites which in many
rose gardens have become serious pest ap-
parently because the extensive use Of DDT has
destroyed the predaceous insects that normally
keep them in check, the society would offer
its "all-purpose rose dust" in a new form this
year. chemical known as azobenzene, which
was developed as an insecticide at Cornell
University and which had not shown any
serious human hazards In using 1t, would be
added to the all-purpose dust" for those who
wished to try it. The dust also would be
offered in the same form as last year, which
had proved quite effective against most dis
eases and other pests aside from red spiders
These dusts it was stated were offered to
members of the Potomac Rose Society on the
same basis as other products bought In pooled
orders by the society and distributed to
members. FREEMAN A. WEISS.

tradition behind him when he insisted
that explorers of the universe through
telescopes and microscopes are, in effect,
kin to the poets and the prophets.
His conclusion was that belief in some
thing constant and Interchangeable
is a necessity" for science and religion
alike The strengthening of this belief,
Dr. Sinnott told his hearers, "is the grave
mandate of our universities" OF course,
it also is the obligation of thousands OF

Auchincloss Bill Opposed

To the Editor Of The Star:
In your editorial Of April II, "This Bill
Should Be Passed." you say that Congress
should give Washingtonians an opportunity to
vote on the Auchincloss bill by enacting it.
Why not reverse the process by putting the
popular vote first? Then Congress could bet
ter decide whether to enact it.
You and the bill might be overlooking some
citizens that should be included in the election.
Washington does not belong exclusively to its
permanent residents. The 150,0O0,OOO other
citizens in the 48 States also use the city
Many of them come here for day, year, or
more. and the condition of the streets, parks,
public buildings. police. hospitals, libraries Is
OF interest to them.
You say further that the plan will make the
local government responsive to the will of the
citizens while retaining supreme control by
Congress. Supreme control will be the real
control. The home-rue bill leaves the con-
troll exactly where it is now, in the hands of
Congress. Why incur the expense of group
of ornamental lawmakers who would have no
real power2

Science and RELIGION

When Sheffield School, Yale University,
recently celebrated the centenary of its
founding, the dean of the faculty, DR..
Edmund w. Stinnott, made use of the
opportunity to discuss the alleged conflict
between religion and science which many
lay persons suppose to have developed
during the past hundred years. Naive
materialSnl," he said, is out of date.
But there would be little gain in a mere
liquidation of an exclusive faith in mat
ter in the old sense" Something more than
broken atoms is wanted. DR.. Stinnott
called for "a fuller cultivation of those
qualities which are best termed spiritual"
and added: ION their strength depends
our own survival" Around the values to
which he referred "have grown up the
great traditions of the arts, the human
tiles and the religions, the ideals of free
dom and of good will, and Of the world
of man."
Science, as defined by Thomas Henry
Huxley, never did refuse "to admit that
there are many aspects of reality with
which it can never deal" The supposed
irreconciIable hostility toward revelation
of which John w. Draper was the his
torian was largely an invention of eco
nomic deterministS. To attribute it to
Charles Darwin and Herbert Spencer Is
inaccurate. What DR.. Stinnott accom-
plished in his centennial speech was a
ssafax.nation Of the basic tolerance Of
scientific endeavor for another avenue

More About Anturctico

With the return of the Rome Antarctic
Research Expedition after more than a
year of ship and aerial exploration IN
Antarctica, a further revision in maps OF
the South Polar continent will be in order.
For this privately financed expedition re-
ports that it achieved its primary objective
of filling in many of the volds In the
recorded geography of Palmer Land, the
icy peninsula a thousand miles south OF
Cape Horn
From his base at Marguerite Bay, Com
mander Finn Rome, leader of the party,
sent Army planes on aerial mapping
flights that covered some two hundred
and fifty thousand square miles Of terri
tory never before seen by man. With
these photographs photographers will be
able to complete a large section OF Ant
arctica maps heretofore left unmarked
Among the important discoveries was
Larry Gould Bay, on the southern coast
of the Weddell Sea, to which Commander
Rome hopes to return for further ex-
ploration.
It is of interest to note that although
Commander Rome raised the American
flag on portions of Palmer Land never
before visited by any explorer, the United
States has not laid claim to the discovery.
If we did so, we would become party to
the dispute already taking place between
Great Britain and Chile over jurisdiction
in Palmer Land. But, under present State
Department policy, the United States
neither makes claim to any American dis
coveries nor recognizes the claims of any
other nation.
OF far more immediate interest are the
findings which the Rome party made IN
such fieldSas cosmic radiation, mineralogy

New War Between the States

That was no joke that Lieutenant Gov
ernor Coolidge of Massachusetts, told the
Greater Lawrence Massachusetts, Cham
Der of Commerce the other night about
Dixie inroads on Yankee industry. It Is
no laughing matter in New England, this
new war between the States, however
lightly Mr. Coolidge may treat it in public.
For as the Massachusetts, official pointed
out, Southern promoters Dixie Claghorns,
Mr.. Coolidge called them) have succeeded
in enticing a number of profitable indus
tries away from the North in recent years.
The rebel raids have been especially sue
cessful in the textile manufacturing field,
one which New Englanders have domi-
mated for many years. 1t Is carpet
bag invasion in reverse, with the Southern
strangers bagging the carpet and other
factories right and left.
Mr. Coolidge was exaggerating things a
bit, however, when he blamed "Bilbo-belt
banjo strummers" and kissing Governors"
for the industrial trek toward the Mason
Dixon Line. The trend is not due to
Establishments or trickery. So far as can
be learned, none of the industrialists who
have been Cured" southwark ever danced
a hoedown with a Mississippi miss or re-
ceived kiss from Big Jim Folsom. These
Northern businessmen were not really
kidnapped" as Mr.. Coolidge charged. Ap-
parently they have no desire to return to
Greater Lawrence or wherever it was they
pulled up stakes.
The TACT is that these enlightened
Yankees weighed carefully the relative
attractions and advantages Of the
regions above and below the well-known
line and they made their choice of their
own free will. Cheaper power, lower taxes,
efficient labor, good transportation are
just few of the factors which were in
volved. Mr. Coolidge may be pardoned If,
ruefully albeit jestingly, he is inclined to
cast aspersions on what he termed the
Tobacco Road" and "razorback hog"
States At the same time. the Lieutenant
Governor should not feel hurt that
Memphis political leader, Ed Crump,
regards him as "blatherskite." Mr..
Coolidge was asking for it when he cracked
wise about crackers and such.

The Efficient Fire Laddies

To the Editor Of The Star:
About II pm, April 5, q fire broke out in
store on Connecticut avenue between r and s
streets, running through to Twentieth street
NV.
RESPONDING to a frst alarm in what seemed a
matter of seconds, at least 20 pieces OF fire
apparatus were expertly manuevered into
Twentieth street, between solid mass OF
private cars parked on both sides OF the street.
From my window saw a marvellous display

ment In a narrow congested street over miles

Rose Insecticides Discussed

To the Editor Of fThe Star:
great many inquiries have been received
by mail and telephone with reference to new
chemical for destroying insect pests, reported
in the newspapers to have been recommended
by me in talk at the Rose Institute Of the
Potomac Rose Society on April 1. The news
paper account did not report correctly the
statement actually made.
There are many chemicals, some old and
some new, that will kill insects, but that cannot
be recommended for use in gardens because
of toxicity to plants or to persons applying
them or both. In the course Of my talk, ref
erence was made to several chemicals that
have been developed recently, originating in
wartime research, to control certain insect
pests against which the now widely used DOT
preparations are ineffective. None of these
was recommended for use by gardeners, and
none was said to be useful in soil applications.
A different chemical, long known in insecticide
research, namely sodium selenate, was men,
toned as having the property Of being taken
up by plants, thereby rendering them toxic to
insects. This chemical has been tested in
greenhouses devoted to the culture Of flower
crops, and also has been recommended for the
control of red spider mites and aphids on
phlox and chrySanthemums in gardens. 1t Is
available on the market, but no source Tor
obtaining it was mentioned and SPECIFIC
caution was given against its use on any crop
intended for human consumption, or even in
any soil where food crops would subsequently
be grown. Seenium compounds are extremely
toxic to man and animals. The use OF this
chemical was not recommended for roses be-
cause no reports of its successful use to control
red spiders and aphids on roses have come to
my attention but in such tests as have been
reported it appears to b less effective In

bulls or horses, well, we were told every few
minutes that Champion" Genes horse, would
be shown That was supposed to- compensate
900 of the audience, which were children. for
having to listen to grownup songs and off-color
jokes that, fortunately for some mothers and
fathers, they did not have to explain, due to
the extreme youth of their offspring.
, I was frankly embarrassed and Inundated
when told by the management that I could
leave if I did not like the type OF entertain
ment provided by our hero. Did you ever try
to drag three youngsters out of place when
told ice cream was coning-much less horse?
Must we be subject to Misrepresentation be-
cause of mans reputation as real he-man
cowboy?
I think 1t Is q disgrace. We hear 80 much
about juvenile delinquency, and We are told
what pictures not to take our children to. What
about COWBOY shows? was sure was safe in
taking them to that show.
