SCIENCE: Navy Sees the SnorkeI

Since the end of World War II, the
American Navy has worried about
the almost invisible and deadly
snorlel submarine. Perfected by the
Germans, the snorkel is a breathing"
sub which operates on its regular
diesel engines instead of batteries
while submerged. 1t thus can remain
below the surface almost indefinitely
and can travel at about twice the
normal submerged speeds. With only
a foot of its "breather tube" exposed
above water, conventional radar
equipment finds the sub almost inn
possible to locate.
The Russians picked up Germany's
snorkel secrets at the wars end and
repeatedly went into heavy produc-
ton. The Reds now have about $50 or
300 submarines and the problem of
coping with snorks in a future war
furrowed many Washington brows.
This week information was casually
revealed that the Navy has a new Sc
cret device that can see the snorkel.
Testifying before a Senate subcom-
mittee, Vice Admiral ]. D. Price, vice
chief of naval operations, revealed
that in two years about 80 per cent

trade agreements act and on voting

On another economic front, the CIO
Auto and Steel Workers spoke of
strikes to enforce their new round of
wage demands. The CIO buttressed
its position with a report by Economist
Robert r. Nathan, former War Pro-
duction Board adviser, which said
that corporations as a whole can af-
ford substantial wage increases"
"If there was ever a time both
when wages could be raised without
increasing prices and when wage in
creases would not be likely to result
in price increases, this is the time,
Nathan said. He argued that the aver
age wage Garner has no more buying
power than in the middle of 1916, and
that "it is not surprising, under the
circumstances, that business can not
sell all it can produce"

At Home
Hiss Case Back in Congress

The case of Alger Hiss began in
Congress last year when the House un-
American Activities Committee uncov-
cred charges linking Hiss with Whit
taker Chambers, admitted former
Communist spy courier For six weeks
the spotlight shifted to the courtroom
where Hiss, former high State Depart
men official, was tried on charges of
lying when he denied passing govern
ment secrets to Chambers and Soviet
spy ring. When the jury failed to
agree on verdict last week, the case
landed back in Congress.
This time Representatives Nixon
(R-Calif.) and Velde (R-Ill.) both
members of the committee, wagged
their fingers at Trial Judge Samuel H.
Kaufman. Velde said kaufman had
shown bias in favor of Hiss 'that, to
say the least, bordered on judicial
misconduct" The Congressman sale
they wanted a probe of the judge:
conduct. But Robert P. Patterson
president of the New York City ban
association and former Secretary o.
War, warned that it would be ''blow
to the independence of the judiciary
if Congressman investigated the
judge whenever they diSliked trial:
outcome.
After much debate on the floor o.
the House, the unAmerican Activitie;
Committee decided against reopenins
the Hiss-Chambers case at this time
But it left the way open to dig into
it after Hiss is tried again.

TELEVISION: Four Times as MANY Stations

-Four times as much television
within two years. That prospect was
opened by the Federal Communica-
tions Commission this week through
its proposal that AZ new television
sending channels, in addition to
dozen already being used, be allotted
to television broadcasters.
The new channels are in the ultra
high" spectrum, used until now most
ly only for experimentation. Existing
channels use very high" frequencies.
The new frequencies would be out of
reach of most existing receiving sets
unless converters or other special at
tachments were added.
Milford chronicle., 1949-07-22

Expansion of video into ultra
high" frequencies would make pos
sible some 2,245 television broadcast
ing stations in 1,4OO cities and COM
munitieS throughout the Unite d
States. On the present IL channels
only SAB stations in 221 locations
could be permitted.
The FEC said the new outlets could
bring television service, "as far as
possible" to all people of the United
States. The FEC will listen to indus
try comments on the proposals during
the next month and will open public
hearings August 29. When the pro-
