Poland Seeks More Trade
With Western Nations
by me Assoeioisd Press

Poland has bid openly for more
trade with the western nations.
Polish Ambassador Jozef Winie-
wicz, during an hour-long talk
with Assistant Secretary OF State
Willard L. Thorp yesterday, asked
the United States to clarity" its
trade policies. The envoy told
reporters later that Mr.. Thorp
promised to take the matter under
consideration.
Although the Polish representa-
tive mentioned only the western
zones of Germany as the places
where the Soviet bloc nation seeks
to expand its commercial dealings,
he indicated that opening up of
other areas also is desired.
Mr.. Winiewicz told reporters his
country's declared policy" is to
maintain and even increase trade
exchanges with the western pow
ers. But, he commended that Po-
lands efforts are encountering
difficulties" So he said Mr..
Thorp was asked for "a clarified
ton of the whole policy of United
States export licenses"
American restrictions on the
export ito the Soviet bloc Of goods
deemed to have a war potential
have sharply reduced shipments
to the area.

AFl Calls Substitute Bill
Worse Than Taft Hartley
BY The Asseeietsa Prsss

The AFL said yesterday the pro-
posed Wood bill substitute for the
Taft Hartley law throws several
sops in labor's direction" but Is
actually worse" than the Taft
Hartley Act.
The AFL's Legislative Confer
ence adopted a resolution oppos-
ing the bill introduced recently by
Representative Wood. Democrat
OF Georgia. with the support OF
some Republicans and Southern
Democrats. The conference acted
after studying an analysis Of the
bill by AFL attorneys. which said
in part:
In reality the bill enlarges and
strengthens the most objection
able feature Of the Taft-Hartiey
Act, namely. the use OF injunc-
tons against alleged union unfair
labor practices and in connection
with so-called national. ener-
gency strikes SIS e. a., .s~. ~.
Wherever the restrictions Of
the Taft Hartley Act are Ioosened
it is, for the most part In unim-
portant respects. and, on the other
hand. the most Questionable Of

For the first time 1t is possible
to see through q completely over
cast sky.
An Army Signal Corps meteor
ologist told the American Geo.
physical Union meeting here to-
day of a new type OF radar which
permits observers to picture from
the ground the same scene as
would be visible from an airplane
above an unbroken cover OF black
clouds.
It has detected clouds at an alti-
tude of $1,000 feet. about 10000
feet higher than they have been
known to exist before.
The new device. according to
DR.. William B. Gould Of the Signal
Corps laboratory at Belmar. N. j..
is an extension of the one by which
radar is used to detect rain and
snow at a distance. The short
radar waves are reflected from the
rather large water droplets and
snow crystals.
Clouds, however, are made UP
of droplets about a twenty mil.
lionth of an inch in diameter and
they reflect only the shortest ct
all possible radar. waves. These
are one centimeter in length, all
most on the edge Of invisible
light. They are the same waves.
only lately placed under control.
which made possible the atomic
clock developed by the Bureau of
Standards.
The picture of 1Tclouds above
Clouds" DR.. Gould said. makes 1t
possible to follow the building up
of weather and short range pre-
diction Of rain. Hitherto, the
only way of detecting these proc
esses was from the personal re-
ports Of pilots. ~
A special radar set for storm
detection. developed at the same
Army laboratory. was described
by DR.. Lester A. Zurcher. 1t Is
much more powerful than the
conventional radar apparatus used
for this purpose and makes 1t
possible to see not only the storm
as a whole but to visualize its
different parts.
Coming thunderstorms can be
detected ito the limit Of the
horizon. The human eye can
detect q storm up to about 40
miles. The new -radar extends
the range several fold. The
actual power and frequency Of
the apparatus. 1t was explained,
are Army secrets.

Gloucester School Unit
Seeks $4,000 Loan
From Literary Fund -.
by fhs Assee;oisd Press


RICHMOND. Va. April 90
The Gloucester County School
Board today filed an application
for a $4,000 loan from the State
literary fund.
@. Tyler Miller, State superin-
tendent of public instruction. said
the request will be considered by
the State Board Tuesday. The
board will convene Monday for a
two-day session.
Approximately 5000 900 In ap-
proved loans are pending from
the virtually exhausted fund.
Filing of the request for the
loan came as Gloucester's three
School Board members and school
superintendent awaited sentencing
by Federal Judge Hutcheson for
contempt of his antidiscrimina-
ton injunction. The school Off
Gals have been summoned to ap-
pear In Federal Court here May 4.
Lack Of Authority Seen.
It also came amid unofficial
comment at the State Capitol that
the Governor Is without authority
to channel money, through deficit
appropriation, to the State lit
erary fund. The fund is the
States revolving fund for lend
ing money to localities for school
construction.
Attorney General j. Lindsay
Almond, jr., has advised Gloucester
school officials the County School
Board legally may negotiate a
temporary bank loan in anticipa-
ton of q State literary fund loan.
Mr.. Almond discussed the mat
ter with John T. Duval, Gloucester
Commemorative attorney, at
length yesterday. In an informal
verbal opinion, Mr.. Almond said
the temporary loan would be with
In the law provided its term Is for
no longer than one year.
Mr.. Duval said yesterday. after
comforting with Mr.. Almond. 1t
seems that the law may. provide
means for our obtaining q tenn
porary bank loan If we can be
assured that the literary fund will
within the next year lend the
money for the purpose Of retiring
the temporary loan"
Whitehead Suggests Plan.
Gloucester voters recently de-
feated a 100000 bond issue to
finance construction Of a new
Negro school and repairs to the
Gloucester Training School, a
Negro high school.
Delegate Robert Whitehead OF
Nelson County. recently suggested
the anticipated general fund sur
plus would amount to about $l5.-
600 900 and said the deficit appro-
priation could be made lagre'
enough to care for applications
already approved.
Gov. Tuck acknowledged re-
ceipt of the Whitehead letter, but
otherwise had no comment 1t
was understood by those familiar
with the situation that before
such a deficit appropriation could
be made it would be necessary
for money to have been appro-
priated for the literary fund from
the general fund.
Since this is not the case the
opinion Of most State officials
concerned was that the Governor
has no power to act. It also was
understood that the Attorney
General has looked into such an
expedient before and found moth
ing could be done. :.
