The American Sales Agency here

offices in three other cities, in
structing them to ignore the new
act compelling such companies to
turn over names of buyers to the
various State tax departments.

the Republicans against. Senator
Hickenlooper said a minority re-
port probably will be issued early

He said DR.. Urey's statement

course of events Gin China) Will
be reversed or halted merely by a
announcement of the Assembly,
he added.
What might perhaps emerge
from the consideration of this case
would be a reaff1rmation by the
United Nations of certain basic
principles of the Charter as they
apply to China's independence
from foreign domination and to
the right of China's people to
choose their own political instltu-
tions. Such a statement by the
Assembly could have significant
long-term effect in demonstrating
to the Chinese people that the

cern in their welfare and their
destiny"

He described Russia's proposal
as an olive branch bristling with
the poisonous thorns of propa-
ganda."
For the first time" he declared,
"the Soviet government has shift
ed from leveling accusations at
certain circles and specific in

that the governments OF the

Hicken|ooper Renews
Charge Against Acc
In Replying 10 Urey
BY the Associated Press

A fresh dispute between Sena-
tors and scientists over atomic
secrecy broke out yesterday as
Senator Hickenlooper Republican
of Iowa), renewed his charge of
incredible mismanagement"
against the Atomic Energy Com
mission.
Senator Hickenlooper and two
other Senators sharply disagreed
with DR.. Harold c. Urey, Nobel
prize winning scientist, that
Russia is gaining on the United
States in atomic developments be-
cause this country is over doing
security restrictions.
DR.. Urey, honored for his work
on the heavy water process used In
atomic production. said at a news
conference Friday that Russia is
making faster progress than the
United States in the atomic field
and soon may be ahead Of us.
Says Claim Can't Be Backed.
Senator Hickenlooper, ranking
Republican member of the Sen.
ate House Atomic Committee, said
Dr. Urey's contention that security
regulations are partly to blame
simply cannot be supported.
DIR. Urey says that Russia may
outstrip us, but Russia has the
most air-tight security and Sc
crecy ever devised by any nation
in the world" said Senator Hick-
enlooper. This. of course. dis
proves the idea that our own Sc
curity measures have weakened
our program"
Two other members Of the Con-
gressional Atomic c m m t t e e.
Senators Millikin, Republican, of
Colorado, and Edwin c. johnson,
Democrat, of Colorado. also said
in separate interviews that any lag
in this country's atomic program
cannot be attributed to- overem-
phasis on secrecy measures.
Senator Millikin called DR..
Urey's statement "fallacious on the
face of it," saying Russia main
tains much more severe secrecy
than the United States.
Hickenlooper Repeats Charge.
DR.. Urey said the United States
program lis inefficient at present
because it is frustrated by a mis-
taken desire on the part of Con-
gress and the public to protect us
against the loss of the secret"
He added it "is time that we
stop witch hunting about the Sc
cret' which obviously does not
exist" He declared atomic scien-
fists have left their work in utter
disgust"
The statements were made in

ing Legal Committee changes in

gins forty-eight days before East
er but, in reality, Lent will not
begin for the Individual until
written upon the heart. Lent is
more a spiritual experience than
it is a period of time.
The value of this season is OBJ
vious to those who participate.
AS one needs a period in every
day for spiritual meditation, a
day in every week for rest of
body and spiritual nourishment,
so in every year, we need a spec
ial discipline and growth,
The central aim of this season
may be said to be tWo-fold:
preparation and growth. We
should aim at preparation for
the celebration of Holy Week
and Easter. The death and resur-
rection of our Lord are such
magnificent facts that their OBJ
servation should be the culnin-

preparation.
Lent also means growth. In a
sincere preparation and con-
scientious observance by all, this
season suggests and offers to in
dividuals the church and COM
munity. The result is growth
spiritual growth. THAT we may
grow in the grace in knowledge
of the Lord Jesus Christ was
the prayer of the Apostle Paul
a particular heritage Of the Len
ten effort.
In this season of preparation
for Calvary may the words Of
the old hymn be our challenge:
Must Jesus bear the cross alone
And all the world go free?
No, there's a cross for everyone
And there's a cross for me!
The consecrated cross I'll bear
Till death shall set me free
And then 60 home my crown to
wear
For there's a crown for me.

thus missing the mark in life.
The world at its worst, de-

There must be a turning Of man
