Mauna Loa Eruption
Dying Down; Six Tell
OF Trip 10 Crater Rim
By the Associoted Press

HAWAII NATIONAL PARK, Jan
l0.-Mauna Loa, the giant volcano
which rumbled spectacularly to life
Thursday, appears to be going back
to sleep.
A snowstorm left a cleaning
white blanket on the upper slopes
over the week end, contrasting
sharply with the main lava stream
which has cooled from fiery red to
fuming black.
An eyewitness report by six men
who climbed to the rim of Mauna
Loa's 13,680-foot crater "a hours
after the eruption provided a
graphic description of a volcano in
action. The party was headed by
Frank Oberhansley, superintendent
of Hawaii National Park.
They went by horseback from the
seismograph station Thursday night.
Harry Blickhahn, editor of the Hilo
Herald Tribune, said it was easy to
see the trail because hot lava lighted
the whole landscape.
Over 40 Fountains Seen.
From where our party stayed
Friday night on the rim of Mokua-
weoweo. we could look down into
the vast 3-mile by Smile crater"
Mr. Blickhaln said.
The lava was pouring from
crack about a half-mile long and
near the center of the crater.
More than two score OF hVld
fountains from IS to so feet high
put on a spectacular show. A river
of lava flowed onto the floor OF the
crater.
ITO the southwest, against the
sheer wall of the crater, which is
100 feet high at the end, huge
Solitary fountain threw its fireworks
skyward. Lava from this fountain
divided, part flowing into the floor
of Mokuaweoweo and part spilllng
over a 'hrewall' into the south pit.
I'VE were shuddering In a plerc-
ing cold wind while gazing into the
inferno of MokuaWeoWeo," Mr..
Blickhahn added.
Many persons observed Mauna
Loas eruption by air.
One small plane, with three men
aboard. has been missing since Fri
day. Coast Guard headquarters in
Honolulu last night reported that a
crew member of a search plane in
sisted he saw the small red craft
through a hole in the clouds. He
said it was intact in a revine, on
about the 9,000-foot level of the VOL
cano's slope. There were no reports
of any signs of life0
A ground searching party on
horseback will start up the western
slope of Mauna Lao at daybreak to
try to find the plane.
Lava Moves Slowly.
AP Correspondent Don Carlson
flew over Mauna Loa yesterday. He
In the last IS hours, the huge
flow of molten rock which was creep
ing down the volcanoes western slope,
has moved only few hundred yards.
Since Mauna Loa erupted Thursday,
the lava stream has moved approx
mately seven miles down the slope.
1T was about 13 miles from the
coastal town of Honaunau, toward
which it has been flowing"
Volcanologist Ruy H. Finch ex-
pressed belief that new eruption
is unlikely.

Arlington Adds Waste
To Potomac Pollution
As Plant Is 0vertaxed

Arlington, the only nearby Vir.
glnla community with sewage.
treatment plant, is force to empty
daily more than 100000 gallons OF
untreated eff1uent into the Potomac
River.
The plant which was the most
modern in the State when it was
placed sin operation in 1896, treats
almost 100000 gallons of sewage
daily despite the fact that its de-
signed capacity is a million gallons
less.
In sending the untreated waste
matter into the river, Arlington
joins neighboring Alexandria and
Fairfax in contributing to the pollu-
ton of the waterway.
Alexandria is responsible for about
100000 gallons daily and Fairfax
about 1,250,000. Neither has a sew.
age-treatment plant, although both
have plans.
When the plant began operation
the county had l48.24 miles of sewer
lines and produced slightly more
than 100000 gallons of sewage
daily.
BY 1912. though, the sewage passeo
the capacity of the treatment plan
and dumping of raw sewage into
the Potomac was resumed.
The addition to the plant fol
which the county has had plan
since 1916 would cost at least ST..
225,000 on the basis of an estimat,
made about 18 months ago, accord
ing to Richard Writ, Arlington di.
rector of public services.
With the enlargement, the plan
would have a capacity five time!
greater than at present and woulc
serve the needs of a population Of
100000. Arlington now has a popu.
lation of $4,000.
AS a further aid to anti-pollu.
ton, Mr.. Writ said, the enlarge
ment would provide for chlorinatine
the impurities in the eff1uent which
comes from the plant even after
treatment and is emptied into the
river.

50ther Atom Workers
Besides Jo|iot-Curie
Called Reds in France

PARIS, Jan 10 (NANA> Prof.
Frederic Joliot-Curie, director of
Frances atomic-energy project and
an avoWed Communist continues to
be the center of heated wrangling
here because of his politics. But the
Paris newspaper France Dimanche
reports that besides Prof. Joliot-
Curie other Communists or fellow
travellers of the project include the
scientists chief assistant, Pierre
Bricard. who may not be a party
cardholder but is a registered men,
ber of the Communist front organi-
zation, Companions of Liberty
Other project personnel described
as strict party members who follow
the line laid down by the Kremlin
are a physicist, two typists, a re-
ceptionist, and young girl of I'M
disclosed position.
The controversy over Prof. Joliot-
Curie now includes President Vim
cent Auriol, who supports him, and
former Premier Paul Reynaud, who
distrusts him.
Joliot- -Curie when shown articles in
the foreign press that gibed at the
French for allowing the scientist to
keep his position.
Mr.. Reynaud believes 1t scandal
lous that a Communist should head
French atomic research. He has a
candidate of his own, Pierre Thi-
baud, professor of nuclear physics
at Lyons University. to replace Prof.
Joliot-Curie Another determined
foe is Maurice PetSche, close friend
of Mr.. Reynaud and secretary of
finance.
But supporting the scientist is
Raoul Dautry, government delegate
to the French Atomic Energy Com,
mission who controls the research
ers' purse strings Nobody has the
right" said Mr.. Dautry, ito suspect
a Frenchman like Joliot-Curie who
works for his country. If any
Frenchman believes that such
man would give away atomic Sc
cretS, l regret that opinion"
Heightening the political wrangle
is the presence of virulent anti
Communists among those connected
with French atomic research. One
Of these is the director of ore re-
fining at Fort de Chatillon, a Mon
sieur Goldsmit, a relative of the
Rothschild banking family who does
not hide his anti Communist senti-
ment.
Also connected with the project
is R. Kowarsky, one of the builders
of the French atomic pile who, in
1910, along with John Haldane, car
ried precious supply of heavy
water from Norway to London.
There, he was ordered by Raoul
Dautry to put himself at the dis
posal of the British War Office. He
carried on such highly secret re-
search for the British that they
feared he would be the target of
Nazi agents. He was closely guarded
by police and for years was known
only as Mr.. r, K"

Visitors 10 Be PoI|ed
On nAn-American Show
AT Corcoran Gallery

A public opinion poll is in store
for patrons of the current special
exhibition of paintings at the Cor
coran Gallery of Art.
This was disclosed today by gall
lery officials as they reported nearly
500 visitors to the all-American
showing in its three-hour public
debut yesterday afternoon.
The display includes SO paintings
representative of "a century of taste
and criticism" The show, to con-
tinue to February 20, was formally
opened with reception for 21O
guests Saturday night.
Ballots to Be Ready This Week.
Details of the poll are not vet
settled, but ballots probably will
give visitors an opportunity to reg
lister their own ideas of taste, ac-
cording to gallery officials. Ballots
are expected to be ready by the end
of this week.
Extremes in artistic conception
were equally popular yesterday, ac-
cording to Miss Eleanor B. Swenson,
associate curator of the gallery, who
planned the exhibition.
A realistic painting of Niagara
Falls, executed in 1857 by Frederick
Edwin Church, We'd with Whistler S
White Girl" once described as
bizarre and incomplete"
Large Paintings Draw More.
While the pictures range from
John Quidor's The Money Diggers''
1892 to Karl Knath's modern still
life, Mexican Platter" Q946), the
works in the middle range of the
century seemed to have more ap-
peal for most visitors yesterday. ac-
cording to Miss SWenson. Large,
rather than small, paintings also
seemed to have the edge, she said.
One popular example of extreme
realism was William Harnett's The
Old Models" painted in 1892. and
including a bugle, violin and jug
that virtually every onlooker felt
constrained to reach out and touch,
Miss SwenSon said.
The show will be open at the fol-
lowing hours: Monday, noon to 4::3O
pm; Tuesday through Friday, 10
am. to 4:30 pm: Saturday, 9 am.
to 4:30 pm, and Sunday, 2 to 5pm.

several other routine matters
were discussed by the Marysville
Board of Education at their meet
ing Thursday evening.
There was a general talk on the
fertilization, addition of top soil,
etc. on the grounds at the West

In connection with this, Everett
Rees of Ohio State University
will meet with the Biology Class
to discuss tree replacement on the
grounds of all three buildings.
The general public is invited to
attend these meetings.
The annual night school pro-
jeCt was also brought up by

has been the custom in past
years the regular Monday after
noon classes will be held Mon
day from 7 70 8 p. m. with all
parents invited. Grades l to IL
will be included in the program.
Over 1000 visitors attended last
years night school and were
given a better understanding of
how the school operates.

takes place in our local schools
and better understand the teach
ing methods and school organiza-
ton, ''Mr. Carr said.
