seeking signatures of millions of
Americans to a "roll call for peace"
The document was to have been pre-
sented to President Truman on Me-
mortal Day.
But the State Department, which
originally had called the conference
a sounding board for Communist
propaganda, clamped down on the
tour. It notified the Soviet embassy
and those of its satellites in Washing
ton that visas to delegates had been
granted only for the New York con-
ference. The immigration bureau in
New York was instructed to notify
the delegates individually that they
must leave as soon as travel arrange
ments could be made.
The New York conference which
ended last Sunday had been picketed
by Catholic War Veterans and other
groups.
Dmitri Shostakovich, famed Soviet
composer, played excerpts from his
Fifth Symphony on the piano. He
was accorded an ovation. When he

Atoms for Peace

Atoms. for Peace
One of the ways in which atoms
can be made to work for peace is
shown at Oak Ridge, Tenn, in ex-
periments to raise bigger and better
crops.
Seeds are placed in long, thin trays
and baked in atomic ovens. Object:
new types of plants, The same trays
are used to make radioactive atoms,
or isotopes, for industry and medi-
cine.
The seeds become radioactive but
there is no radioactivity in the plants
which grow from these seeds.
Thousands of useless plants result
for every good one.
Researchers hope to produce new
corn that will yield more sugar, make
better silage and be more disease re-
sistant than the recently developed
hybrid corn.
The atomic oven, it is hoped, will
produce new strains of the peanut
plant to resist a leaf spot now dras-
tically cutting American peanut pro-
duction.
For potatoes, bigger and heavier
tubers are sought and also ones that
viii keep longer in storage.

PACT: The AIIiance Is Ready for siqnina

TWO important events occur
/ next week. The North At

in Washington. On Tuesday the
United Nations General Assem-
bly, opens in New York.
Last week the trek to New York
and Washington started from all over
the world. Foreign ministers from
western nations converged on Wash
ington to discuss with US. Secretary
of State Dean Acheson last minute
details of the defensive alliance.
Agreement in principle was sought
also on other regional alliances, At
lantic defense machinery and west
Germany.
Acheson also conferred last week
with the American delegation he will

Sen. Henry Cabot Lodge (R-Mass)
said the answer is: Allies.
What, retorted DonnelL can Dem
mark contribute to our safety?
The obvious answer, which sena-
tors apparently aren't ready yet to
make, seems likely to involve air
bases in Greenland.
Secretary Acheson has made no
public estimate of the rearmament
program cost but he declared: I'VE
will carefully balance the military as
sistance with the capacity and re-
quirements Of the total economy, both
at home and abroad"
Some senators who are working

required two-thirds of those voting

Determined TO Cooperate
In addition to his regular Monday
conferences with Administration lead
ers, the President talks almost daily
with other senators and representa-
tives. He is making every effort to
cooperate with the 81st Congress of
which he recently said: We are going
to agree on lot more than we dis
agree on"
There also is realization that if he
stays on the Job, the President will
have much stronger case to take to
the people if the 81st Congress, like
the both, does turn his program down.
In the new rent control law passed
last Tuesday by Congress, the Presi-
dent got some but not all that he
asked. It extends controls for IS
months instead of the "A sought by
the White House and carries home
rule" escape clause which would en-
able states and cities to scrap rent
ceilings whenever they wish.
Dewey for Curbs
The effect of this is minimized,
however, by the reluctance of most
communities to end controls. In New
York State, Gov. Dewey said he
would not use local option to end fed
eraI ceilings except on the clearest
proof that rent controls were neither
necessary nor desirable.
An official Of the us. Conference
of Mayors predicted that no major
cities would scrap controls.
Final passage of the control law
climaxed weeks of heated debate
when for time it appeared that the
Senate filibuster might prevent any
action at all.

Science has found a way to manu-
sacture the wonder drug chloromy-
cetin and the Army is testing it in
Malaga.
Natural lchloromycetin, derived from
a mold in the SOIL, is remarkably eff
fective against scourges like typhus
fevers and Rocky Mountain spotted
fever.
Chemists Of the Parke, Davis re-
search labs at Detroit have produced
the recently discovered drug SYM
thetically by method much faster
than the natural process.
Artificial chloromycetin was pro-
duced with the aid of dichloroacetic
acid, whose most common use former
1y was to remove warts. The new
process can make available quantities
of the new drug sufficient to meet all
needs of the medical profession, says
the Parkel Davis research director.
Chloromycetin-- member of the
drug family that includes penicillin
and treptornycin-was the first dis
covered substance effective against
class of germs known as "rickettsiae." :"
In size these germs are about half
way between viruses and bacteria.
An Army research team is working
in Malaga to determine whether the
synthetic drug works as well as the
natural one in treating scrub typhus
which struck down thousands of
American soldiers in the Pacific dur
ing the last war.
Favorable outcome of the tests.

This picture was drawn for the

vention in New York by DR.. Stanhope

In the past. he said, hospitals have

The trend already is well advanced
There are pre-ratal clinics for moth.

well. There are venerea1 disease clin.
