CHICAGO, May 23.-An atomic
scientist contended today tha
American political and militar.
Headers unknowingly may have
given Russia's atomic strength 6
bigger boost than did the spie.
who gave out A-bomb secrets.
DR.. Eugene Rabinowitch, editor
of the Bulletin of the Atomic
Scientists, said spying may have
advanced the Soviet atomic weap-
ons program by at least 18 months
That was the estimate given by
a Congressional Joint Committee
on Atomic Energy.
But the biggest factor in the
A-bomb race, he said, might well
be whether uranium supplies
available to Russia are equal to
those available to the United
States and Canada. He added:
From this point of view, the
most fateful step which has per-
mitted the Soviet Union to
achieve its present atomic strength
was not the betrayal of our Sc
crets but the decision of
American political and military
leaders in 1945 to give to the
Soviet Union control over the
parts Of Czechoslovakia and Ger
many in which important uranium
ore deposits were known to exist.
Abandoned by Troops.
"These regions had been
reached by American troops first
and abandoned to the Soviet
Union in accordance with the
demarcation agreement.
Perhaps If the atomic bomb
development in the United States
had not been surrounded by such
extreme secrecy, those responsible
for the drawing of the demarca-
tion line would have known better
what they were giving away-or
at least would have been exposed
to the advice Of those who knew"
He said that looking back
wards, lit seems doubtful whether
America has gained anything at
all from the immense effort and
expense it had invested in keep
ing the entire wartime atomic
bomb development secret"
Cites Investigative Burden.
If instead, he added, strict Sc
crecy had been limited to the
mechanism for exploding the
bomb, possibly no spies would
have slipped through the security
precautions. He said the ex-
ploding mechanism was "the sup
posedly most important secret"
AS things are now, he said, the
FBI is "overburdened with inves-
tigation of innumerable people,
most Of whom will never have

To Clarity Position

The Rev. Ross Allen Weston of

concerned with better government
or wants to maintain the status
quo at the expense of the children
and to the benefit of the tax
payer.

exactly what the proper aims OF
education should be.
"3. Outline a system Of educa-
tion better than the one we now

another rerun in court today.
This time it'll be the retrial OF
Ralph A. Newberry, 80.
1t was Newberry's 37-year-old

with Samuel being given a life

term.
The State Supreme Court, how
ever. ordered a new trial for

ton are 40 lifers. and many
others have sentences ranging
upward from 40 years. But
they never despair that some
day, somehow, a legal loophole
will be found to release them.
Many prisoners find mental
diversion by learning to draw
and paint, and some are quite
talented. Others are teaching
themselves to play musical in
struments. The prisoners have
an unwritten rule that the horn
players must practice outside
the dormitories.
Other prisoners find after
hours diversion in working
among the flowers and plants
on the beautifully Handicapped
reformatory grounds.
Day Starts at 6:15.
The prison day starts at Sis
am. with breakfast at 7. Work
in the shops, on the construc-
ton of new buildings and roads
and on the farm starts at 7:30.
At 1880, the prisoners stop
work for lunch and are back on
their jobs at 1905. At 1925
pm. the men return to their

Petitions jam Courts.
AS a result. the courts at
Trenton are jammed now with
more than 100 petitions from
prison lawyers.
Similar experiences have been
reported by courts in other
cities.
Supt. WEIGH said prisoners
are provided writing materials
and allowed to consult law
books covering the crimes for
which they were sentenced. but
they do not have access to a
library or legal precedents. Re-
formatory regulations provide
that prisoners acting as their

After supper, the prisoners
time is pretty much their own
until dusk. Some flock to the
recreation fields to play ball.
others pitch horseshoes. Some
remain In the dormitories play
ing checkers and other games.
Others study, and still others
write letters to friends or peti.
tions to the court.
At dusk they return to their
dormitories, but still more rec
reation awaits those who want
it. About four nights a week.
there are large screen television
shows in the auditorium, or
amateur shows or concerts by
the prison band and choir.
Those who feel sleepy may go

Some Doors Never Locked.
Individual cells are used only
for prisoners who become dis
ciplinary problems. But be-
cause the reformatory is over
crowded. some model prisoners
who like individual rooms are
given cells on which the doors
are never locked.
When prisoners become too
hard to handle in the seemingly
relaxed, but ever-viligant, at
mosphere Of Lorton. they are
sent to Atlanta or Alcatraz to
rinish out their terms.
Emphasis at Lorton is on re-
habiiltsting the man, even
though he is sentenced to the
prison for life. When prisoners
arrive, they are interviewed by
trained consultants, who learn
what the man likes to do and
what he is best qualified to do.
Every effort is made to assign
him to a job in which he will
be most contented. If his skills
do not fit any Of the jobs avail
able at the institution, he is
trained for one closest to his
pre-prisoE experience.
Supt. Welch is proud Of some
of his graduates" who learned
their trades at Lorton and now
are earning substantial salaries
in private industry.
Some Beg to Get Back.
But men who love flowers and
the outdoors are not always as
signed to tending the beautiful
gardens and lawns just because
they would like to. If they are
capable Of other work in the
shops, that is where they go.
However, in their of hours, they
are allowed to work among the
flowers or are given plots Of
ground on which they can raise
their own vegetable gardens.
Prisoners who are sent away
to Atlanta often beg for the
privilege of returning to Lorton.
And if they convince authorities
they have reformed, they are
returned.
Escapes are few and far be-
tween at Lorton. One man
walked of the farm last year
and was recaptured the same
day. Two men drove a truck
off the reservation two years ago
and were recaptured. Prior to
that the last escape had been
in 1914.
