The second instrument, the ab-

tanning proteins run down over diff

OF the surfaces, but not for the
others. Thus the different kinds
are separated.
Prof. Tiselius' discoveries have
been used for untangling the puz-

The structure of these giants is

STOCKHOLM, Nov. 5.-Nobel
Prizes worth $4,000 each were
awarded yesterday to p. M. 9. Black
ct, British physicist, and Arne
T1seliM, Swedish chemist. Earlier
the literature prize was awarded to
r. q. Eliot, American-born British
poet.
Mr.. Blackett, whose discoveries
have contributed to solution OF
atomic energy problems, recently
wrote O book saying Russia waS
right in rejecting American plans
for atomic control.
Mr.. T1selius won his award fol
his discoveries in biochemistry and
invention Of important laboratory
apparatus.
The Swedish Academy of Science
said Mr.. Blackett, professor OF
physics ut Manchester University
since 1887, merited the award for
his improvements of the Wilson
chamber and discoveries in nuclear
physics about cosmic radiation.
Made Photos Possible.
The Wilson chamber enabled
scientists to see and photograph the
trails Of radioactive particles and
other particles. 1t was invented by
another Nobel winner, c. T. r. Will
son. Prof. Blackett discovered that
cosrnic rays left similar traces in the
Wilson chamber as radioactive par
ticles. He then invented an auto
matte device which made 1t possible
to make better photographs of the
trails.
The improved pictures showed
tiny particles which had not been
visible previously. One of these
new particles was an unusual kind
Of electron. Electrons have mega
tive electrical charges, but this one
had positive charge, and is called
q positron.
Prof. Blackett's improvements
also revealed the creation of mat
ter, which is the change of energy
into solid matter. This was the
exact reverse of an atomic bomb
where solid matter changes into
energy. In the new photographs, a
ray of light Of a peculiar kind
known as gamma ray, was seen
to change itself into two material
particles. Prof. Blackett also dis.
covered how to calculate the amount
Of energy that would create this
pair of particles.

BALTIMORE. Nov. 13.-With

the question of expanded Gov
ernment intervention in medi-
cine early next year, Baltimore
has come up with a daring plan
for the care of indigentS which

The plan is a Joint project OF
Baltimore's doctors, private hospitals

medical care at Government ex-
pense. 1t also is an experiment in
preventive medicine which may in
many cases cut down the need for
expensive hospital care.

Truman Strengthens
Labor Department by
Adding 10 Iobin 5 Job
NLRB and Cancellation
Service Told to Take
Problems to Secretary
By jones Y. Newton

Administration plans to build
up the Labor Department al
ready are taking shape in the
form of White House orders to
independent labor agencies to
take their problems to Secretary
of Labor Tobin rather than to
the President, it was learned last
night. ~
Top Federal officials, queried as
to plans for strengthening the La
Dor Department, reported that 1t is
already under way from an ad-
ministrative standpoint. The heads
Of such agencies as the National
Labor Relations Board and the Fed
eral Mediation and Cancellation
Service have been told to talk with
Mr.. Tobin about their troubles
rather than Mr.. Truman or his as
sistant, John R. Steelman.
This does not mean that the ad-
ministration has decided definitely
to transfer either the NLRB or the
conciliation service so they would
be an actual branch of Mr.. Tobin S
department. Both would require
legislation and plans have not
"jelled" on either point. AS a mat
ter of fact, it is held highly un-
likely that NLRB ever will be
placed completely under the Labor
Department and there are those
high in the councils of Mr., Truman
who favor retaining the independ-
ent status of the conciliation Servise.
Tough Opposition Expected.
But there is an excellent chance
that both of these independent or
ganizations and possibly others,
notably the National Mediation
Board which handles railroad and
other transportation disputes, will
wind up in the Labor Department
for what officials described as
housekeeping purposes" That
means they would be attached for
fiscal and other reasons, but would
not be accountable to the Labor
Secretary for their actions and pol
Icy decisions.
The independent labor agencies
are expected to battle hard to main
tain their current status, but the
results are confused by the fact that
Secretary Tobin repeatedly has been
given a virtual blank check" by the
President because of the strenuous
campaigning he did for Mr.. Tru-
man.
The final settlement probably will
be up to Congress. Much depends
on the result of the Truman promise
to repeal the Taft-Hartley Act and,
if he is successful, the type of SUBJ

Seven firemen were hurt and
damage estimated at SIS, 900 was

razed the former Officers Mess
and Club buildings at Fort Wash

Fire companies from Fort Wash
ington, Oxon Hill, Silver Hill, Morn
ingside. District Heights, Clinton
and Accokeek, Md, were called out
to hold the spectacular blaze in
check after it threatened to spread
to adjacent woodland. Hose lines
had to be stretched more than 1000
feet from fire hydrants.
None of the injured firemen was
seriously hurt but three required
hospital treatment. The firemen
were Sergt. Roy Morris, %, of the
Boiling Air Force Base, a volun-
teer lieutenant with the Fort WASH
ington Co., fractured jaw and lac

Sergt. Morris was injured when a
failing hose coupling struck him in
the mouth. He was treated at the
Boiling Air Base Hospital. Mr..
Connors suffered a heart attack
after he was overcome by smoke
and was treated at the scene by 1t.
William Errgone of the Navy
Medical Corps. Later he was sent
to Casualty Hospital with Mr..
Kerby, who also was overcome by
smoke. Both men later were sent
to their homes.
The large wooden barrack-type
buildings had been used as storage
houses for surplus equipment since
the fort area was turned over t. the
Department of Interior after the
war. Among the equipment were
kitchen stoves. air compressor units,
mattresses and 100 field fire extin-
guishers.
Thomas Baber, chief of the Fort
Washington Volunteer Co., said the
fire evidently started in the kitchen
unit of the old officers mess and
the entire building was a mass Of
flames when his company reached
the scene.
Water Cut of.
Two fire hydrants stood In front
of the burning building but when
Chief Baber's men connected their
hose they found the water had
been cut off.
Chief Baber telephoned the
Prince Georges County Fire Control
Center to dispatch additional VOL
unteer companies with sufficient
hose to reach to hydrants in the
housing center at the fort which is
operated by Government Services,
Inc. About 10 families of service
men and veterans live in the center.
A strong wind famed the blaze
and sent flames leaping into the
tops of nearby trees The fremen
sprayed water on the surrounding
woods until the fire in the blazing
building was brought under control.

Rail Embargo Covers
Big East Coast Ports
In Longshore Strike
About 200 Ships Affected;

NEW YORK, Nov. 13.-The rail
embargo on export freight was
extended to all major East Coast
ports today as the dock workers
strike immobilized almost 200
ships.
The Association of American Rail-
roads placed ban on nearly all
goods destined for overseas shipment
out of Philadelphia. Baltimore, Will
mington, Del, and Hampton Roads,
Va.
This was an extension of the en-
barge clamped yesterday on freight
moving to New York and Boston.
The ordinary weekend lull mini
mized the effects of the strike Of
about 5000 longshoremen on its
first official day.
Marshall Plan Shipments Hit.
But the usually teeming water
fronts were expected to be deserted
Monday. Marshall Plan shipments
as well ss ordinary commercial mar
itime business will be hit drastically
if the walkout is a long one.
A survey indicated these ships
were tied up by the strike:
Baltimore IS, New York 50, Phil
adelphia 80, Boston 8, Hampton
Roads 3 and Albany, N. Y, 2.
Actually 202 vessels were idle in
New York's great port but customs
officials indicated only So of these
could be attributed to the steve
dores' walkout.
No Developments Expected.
Joseph P. Ryan, president of the
AFL International Longshoremen's
Association who called the strike
for last midnight, said he expected
no developments until Monday when
two union meetings are scheduled.
One of the sessions will involve
all AFL maritime unions.
Mr.. Ryan said he was going to
play golf over the week end but
would call Mayor William O'Dwyer
after his arrival tomorrow and try
to arrange a conference on the
strike situation.
The Mayor, who has interrupted
a vacation at the ranch of his
