March. A coal and steel strike at
the same time would be beaut.
2. WSB. The president could
ask the board to examine the dis
pute. 1t would. And it would
make recommendations. Neither
the union nor the industry would
have to accept the boards recon-
mendations although public opin-
ion would support the board,
putting pressure on both sides to
accept.
Still, in neither case could the
government (A) force either side
to settle their dispute or tB)
in the end prevent strike if the
steelworkers wanted one badly
enough.
Yet, if the WSB decided the
workers should get what they
wanted, even though it meant

industry raise prices, that would
settle the case pretty fast.
One hing is sure: the govern
ment wants to avoid a steel

AIR FORCE AWARDS CONTRACTS
FOR ATOMIC POWERED AlRPLANE.

This heat probably would be
converted into propulsive power
for plane BY gas or mercury
vapor turbines. The heat produc~
ed by small quantity of ex-
ploding Uranium-235 is tremen-
dous. Some scientists have esti-
mated that one pound of it would
produce as much energy as six
million gallons of gasoline.
The heat and accompanying ra-
diation, however, evidently pro-
vide the biggest obstacle to de-
velopment Of nuclear engine for
aircraft. The problem is to shield
crew members from the deadly
radeiation. Lead is the best
known shield for radiation and
too much lead would weigh down
a plane.
There have been no official pre-
dictions as to how long It may
take to complete the first atomic
powered plane, but some inform
matter of years, and at cost
ed circles have estimated 1t as a
of many milliones of dollars.

Defense Program
TO Produce More
Shortages Soon

WASHINGTON-LP,- The ma
tion's defense program, said to be
expanding at the rate of $1,000
100000 a month, probably will
result soon in shortages of such
durable consumer goods as auto.
mobiles and refrigerators.
This picture came Sunday from
mobilization director Charles E.
Wilson and his assistant, Char
les B. Stauffacher.
In some goods the pinch is
already beginning to be felt, .
Stauffacher said in a radio in
terview. THE present quarter
and the first two quarters Of 1852
will find us straining our econ
omy to the utmost. The crucial
period ahead will call for some
sacrifices and forbearance from
all of us"
He predicted military produc-
tion will reach a peak within two
years and that thereafter civil
ian production could resume its
normal upward climb
Wilson talked with newsmen at
Key West, Fla, where he spent
parts of two days briefing Presi-
dent Truman on progress of the
defense production program.
Wilson took the occasion to re-
ply to recent criticism by the
senate armed services subcomnit-
tee on preparedness, headed by
Senator Lyndon B. Johnson Cd
Texas In a report last week,
the subcommittee said production
Of defense items is tagging dan
gerously; it recommended that a
bigger bite be taken out Of the
civilian economy.
Wilson said:
We have not this year allotted
any appreciable quantities of ma
terial or tools to civilian produc-
ton that we needed or could
have advantageously used for mil
itary production.
Generally speaking, we are
on the right track in the dual job
of getting current production
while substantially widening the
base for future military produc-
tion-to be ready, in case of
emergency, if we have to go all
OUT.
AS did his assistant, Wilson said
the pinch in civilian production
is getting pretty close now
He emphasized that civilian
production has not been allowed
to interfere with the defense pro-
gram, which he said is increasing
at the rate of S100o,o0o,o00 a
month. Wilson added:
1T doesn't take a magician to
figure out that the military pipe
line is getting very, very big"

Observation-Disclosures Air
Force. pushing for early develops
ment of an atomic-powered air.
plane, has awarded a new con-
tract for work on a nuclear en-
gine to Pratt and Whitney Air
craft at East Hartford, Conn.
In effect, the Air Force ap-
peared to be putting some of its
eggs into a second basket.
Last March %, the Atomic
Energy Commission (AEC) an
nounced it was negotiating a con-
tract with a General Electric Co.,
division for further development
of a nuclear reactor for aircraft. |"
The Air Force said it had given
Pratt and Whitney "a contract
to work on the development of an
atomic aircraft engine
An Air Force spokesman said
letting of the contract to Pratt
and Whitney was not to be ta-
ken as an indication that the Cen
eral Electric Company is not ma
king progress. Rather, he said,
a search is being made for more
than one way to develop the
engine.
The Air Force and the Acc,
working with industry on the
project, have been close-mouthed
about details. But scientists have
predicted unofficially that an at
omic-powered plane might have
a range limited only by human
endurance and speeds that can
only be guessed at.
Last Sept. 5, the Air Force an
nounced it had contracted with
Consolidated Vultee corporation
for construction of what engin-
GERS call an air-frame- the shell
of plane without engines or
instruments-for nuclear-po
cred plane This was regarded as
an indication of reasonable con-
fidence such a plane can be pro-
duced.
The latest announcement gave
few new details. The Air Force
recalled in statement that Pratt
and Whitney's parent, the United
Aircraft corporation, was one of
a group of firms that participat-
ed in the postwar studies of nu-
clear energy for propulsion of
aircraft" Those studies were
sponsored by the Air Force and
the Acc.
A spokesman, expanding little
on the statement, indicated that
the second engine contract had
been awarded to stimulate" work
on an atomic power plant. He
said when work is farther along it
may be decided to concentrate on
one of the two separate types of
engine under consideration.
Power plants for both the plane
and the submarine on which the
Navy is at work would have their
heart in an atomic reactor-a
massive device which permits the
slow, controlled release of atomic
energy in the form of heat and
radiation.

IT WAS CHRISTMAS
INHEAVEN---

But / have sent you to many
universes beyond this earth-larg-
er, more important realms of
matter" said God. why does
your love always return to these
lost prisoners of earth? Were
they SO kind to YOU?
Many did not recognize me,
Father, but / told them that if
they did they would be forever
free"
But they stretched you upon
a cross of wood and drove a spear
into your side, my son. And you
want to reward them?"
Forgive them, Father. they
knew not what they uld.'
The Lord shook his great head,
and said:
MY son, you think too much
about that single mudball in the
clouds. Your duty is not one satel-
lite or a single star. Your obli-
cation is the sky"
And Jesus replied:
But today it is my birthday
on earth, Father, and the earth is
as beautiful as the morning"
He held out his hand in mute
appeal. And God put the small
frightened human soul within that
hand. And his son set down that
human soul with infinite tender
ness, safe in the golden sanctuary
he had promised long ago.
And the bells of heaven rang in
gladness, just as they did on
earth wherever men remembered

The World Today


WASHINGTON Up Presi-
dent Truman has a couple of
remedies he can try in an effort
to stop steel strike which Philip
Murray's CIO steelworkers say
they'll pull Jan. / if they don't
get raise by then.
Mr.. Truman could (A) dump
the problem in the lap of the
Wage Sterilization Board, which
he might do in preference to US
ing (B) the Taft-Hartley Act,
through which he could delay a
strike go days.
No doubt the President will
handle the case delicately since
Murray is one of his strongest
hackers and it isn't politically
smart to ALLEVIATE your friends
unnecessarily.
But the President has another
and, SO far as the rest of the
country is concerned, stronger
reason for being careful here: if
he pokes a hole in the anti-infla-
ton curtain to help Murray, liv-
ing costs go up.
The steelworkers want new
contract giving them higher wag-
es and other benefits. Murray
warns they won't work without a
contract and if they don't have a
new one when the old one ends
Jan. /, they'll strike.
The U. S. Steel Corporation
says it can't raise wages penny
unless the government permits it
to raise prices to pay for the
raise, which thus rams the whole
dispute head on into the anti-in-
flation program:
The governments Office of
Price Sterilization (OPS) and
the Wage Sterilization Board
(WSB) have put ceilings on
prices and wages to keep both of
them down.
If it breaks the ceiling in this
case to avoid a steel strike, then
it has opened the door for other
unions and companies to demand
higher wages and prices.
OF course, there's question of
wether the industry, out of its
present profits, can afford to
raise wages without needing a
price increase to pay for them.
If it can, it would seem the
dispute can be settled by Jan. l
between the union and the indus
try, and nobody gets hurt. But
its own statement that it can't
taken at face value would indi-
cate the OPS and WSB WIN have
to get into this mix-up before it's
over.
This is what the President can
do if a strike seems certain on
Jan. /:
/. Taft-Hartley. Under this
law he could declare that strike
would create national emergen-
cy. The attorney general would
ask court to issue an injunction
forbidding a strike for 80 days.
During that time the two sides
are supposed to reach settle
ment. But if there's no agreement
by the end of 80 days, the union
can strike.
So this method could delay
strike but not, in the end, pre-
vent it. Further: If the injunction
were issued around Jan. / the 80
days would be up in mid-March.
BY that time John L. Lewis
coal miners could be on strike.
Their present contracts end in

COMMUNIST CLAIM

Build Defenses
OF Japan Against
A Pearl Harbor''

NAGOYA, JAPAN -LP1Amer-
ican air, ground and sea forces
are working toward a Pearl
Harbor-proof' defense of Japan.
The pattern follows closely the
intricate military plan developed
to safeguard North America if
an atomic war is launched.
The United States will carry
the burden of Japan's defense
after the occupation of this de-
feated nations ends. Air, ground
and naval units will remain here
under the United States-Japan
Security Pact.
The key link in the defense
chain is the 31th Air Division. It
is supported by-and would. sup
port in an attack-ground units
such as national guard divisions
on occupation duty, anti-aircraft
batteries and naval ships and
planes operating off Japan's
rocky coasts.
The 314th, commanded by Brig.
Gen. Delmar T. Spiyey of 821
Crescent Drive, Alexandria, Va,
was activated last December. To-
day it can be compared to a
bonue rookie in baseball. It has
shown a lot of promise but it has
not been tested on the big time
circuit-an all-out war.
A 2,50o-mile air trip through
the heartland of Japan's most
vulnerable points reveals a brist-
ling defense that grows stronger
daily.
The rocky shores Of Hokkaido
are dotted with radar stations.
Their screens sometimes pick up
communist planes flying over Red
territory on training missions. No
plane-friendly or enemy-can
approach the coasts without being
picked up.
Nothing is left to chance with
a potential enemy sitting so close
Jet interceptors patrol night
and day in all kinds of weather.
Some reconnaissance patrols
range far out to sea.
Surprise practice tests are run
continually to keep pilots on their
toes. One practice attack came
early on a Sunday morning. In
two minutes and As seconds two
jets were streaking off the run
way. Seconds later eight were
in the air.
Secret refueling systems have
speeded up the servicing Of
planes. aircraft can be refueled
and rearmed in 20 minutes.
Every airfield occupied by
American forces is on a strict
wartime basis.
The defense of japan is divided
into three zones northern, CEN
tral and southern Headquarters,
where activities or air, ground and
sea forces are coordinated, is at
Nagoya.
The islands defense. are better
than they were year ago. The
feeling is that can be held.
