something of the battle was al
ready won by his magnificent
presence.
Yet for all that, his way was
not easy. "Don't you know, DR..

famous medical scientist, chided
him, that you have been talking

reception room, princes and
noblemen are waiting for me to

How long," asked a manufac-
turer whom Weizmann asked for
a donation for the Keren HaYe-
hod. have you been travelling
about?"
For more than thirty years"
replied Weizmann.

said the cloak and suffer.
Settle down. The anti-Semites
were not settling down. How
could Weizmann settle down?
Weizmann's moderation some
times aroused opposition. but the
militants were constr aimed to re-
spect him. There is the story of
the bellicose Zionist who an

up to Weizmann and boldly "cuss

Weizmann Belongs to the Ages

Weizmann had to be a states
man and manipulate when he too
had nothing to put in.
Einstein. Freud and Weizmann!
The grand triumvirate of Jews Of
this generation! The first two are
of universal significance. Einstein
discovered the world of the atom
and the cosmic pattern. Freud
disc covered the subconscious
world. Weizmann's significance as
a Zionist deals only with the Jew
ish people. Yet who can say that
his contribution is not such as TO
bracket him with the other
giants?
Does not the very fact that
Jewry in a generation could raise
two mountain peaks Of the in
tellectual world such as Einstein
and Freud point to the impor-
lance of preserving the Jewish
genius. Who shall dare limit the
potentialities to the world of the
revival of the Jewish state?
Granted that the Jew is but an
atom in the worlds population,
who today, after Einstein, will
mock at the atom. Perhaps it is an
atom of uranium!
It was Ben Gurion who said
that Weizmann did not need the
Presidency of Israel. but Israel
needed the Presidency of Weiz-
mann. He looked like a prophet
who had maybe stepped out of

But ,Weizmann was also great

|H-Bomb Tanning for Peaceful Use Detailed

Iowa. a member Of the Joint Con-
gresSional Atomic Committee.
Senator Hickenlooper said that
"The hydrogen picture contains
some hope. in time. for peaceful
and constructive applications"
His statement-and one made
by Committee Chairman Brien
Mcmahon shortly before his death
last July-provided the first indi-
cation that atomic officials see a
possibility Of using hydrogen fu-
sion reactions for something other
than projected H-bombs. The ACC
has said nothing along that line.
The consensus Of most top sci
entists has been not only that
fusion would involve an explosion
in itself-but also that it would
have to be triggered by an explod-
ing A-bomb.
Senator Hickenlooper's state
ment was described by the Feder-
alton of American Scientists as
more startling to scientists out
side the Acc than the news and
rumors of a hydrogen bomb.
The application would be in pow
er. conversion to electrical energy

An atomic scientist came up
today With the first public ex-
|planation on how hydrogen bomb
materials might be tanned for
peaceful uses, such as power:
Electricity discharged through a
thin wire might set off slowed

controlled for various purposes,
DR.. George Gamow said.
He said there are other "theo-
Iretically possible" techniques that
might be even better, but he de-
|clined to amplify.
Up until recently the general
view. including that OF most top
scientists. has been that atomic
energy could be released from hy-
drogen only through a terrific ex-
plosion.

at least theoretically possible to

Conei|iatory Attitude
On Durkin Issue
Is Taken by Taft
By ]. A. O'leary

Senator Taft. Republican. of
Ohio today took conciliatory
attitude on reaction to his recent
condemnation of President-elect
Eisenhower's selection Of Martin
p. Durkin to be Secretary of Labor.
Reached at his Office in Cincin-
natl today. Senator Taft declined
to comment on a suggestion by
MIR. .Durkin that they consult
together on labor legislation. He
added. however,.
Il never refuse to talk to any
one about the Taft-Hartley law"
Meanwhile. other Republicans
continued to minimize the ap-
parent disagreement between SEN
ator Taft and Gen. Eisenhower.
Il don't think one remark should
be considered a split any more
than one swallow makes a sum-
mer." said Senator Ferguson of
Michigan. We've got many big
problems and we've got to work
them out as a team"
Watkins Also Sees Peace.
Senator Watkins of Utah, who
supported Senator Taft for the
presidential nomination, said also
he thought the Republicans would
be peaceful group" when they
assemble for the January session.
Senator Taft was quoted as hav-
ing told Raymond P. Brandt. of
the st. Louis Post-Dispatch, that
he still believes he can work with
all the men and women the gen.
eral has appointed. perhaps in
cluding Mr.. Durkin.
In copyrighted dispatch from
Cincinnati. the Post-Dispatch
correspondent represented Sena-
tor Taft as indicating he does not
regard his statement on the Dur
kin appointment as meaning an
end to the honeymoon between
Gen. Eisenhower and the Repub-
liean Congress.
The Post-Dispatch story, as car
ried by the Associated Press.
quoted Senator Taft in part:
On most matters, whatever
differences there have been be-
tween Eisenhower and myself have
been differences of degree. No one
man can run the Senate. While I
have views on a number of sub
jects. believe we can work out a.
program"
Undecided on Floor Post.
The Ohio Senator also was
quoted as saying he has not de-
cided whether to seek the Senate
floor leadership, or remain chair
man Of the Republican Policy
Committee. Nevertheless, the
belief is growing at the Capitol
that Senator Bridges of New
Hampshire will agree to remain
as floor leader to avoid a contest
which is shaping up between
Senators Taft and Knowland of
California. if Senator Bridges
gives up the post.
Senator Morse. Independent. of
Oregon. asked for his reaction to
the Taft statement disapproving
the Durkir appointment. said:
II think it simply means that
Taft belatedly discovered what r
discovered during the campaign
and that is. Taft discovered he
had been double-crossed." Mr..
Morse did not elaborate.
During the presidential cam
paign Senator Morse shifted his
support from Gen. Eisenhower to
Gov. Adlai Stevenson, the Demo-
cratic nominee, and resigned
from the Republican Party. He
contended Gen. Eisenhower had
bowed to reactionary elements
within the party.

There was tremendous opposition
to the Administrators foreign
aid program. The Israel plank
issue was beclouded by anti-Zion-
ist testimony of the American
Economic Council. Hart aSsailed
the Administration foreign policy,
saying that the government has
aided Israel and the Soviet Union
but had insulted Spain, which he
described as effective anti-Com-
munist country. He denounced the
the United Nations Human Rights
program and complained that
America was on the wrong side
in Palestine.
Sentiment developed among
members of the foreign relations
sub-committee TO write a plank
which called for an objective re-
view" of the Truman policy on
Israel. which they believed had
"alienated" the Arab world. It
was the intention of some TO
write in a strong case for the
Arabs who had deserted Israel.
Into this grim scene stepped I. F.

fled before the platform sub-com-

the sort raised against Israel by

started off by belly-aching on
how much it cost to be Jew.
He said there was no end of it.
It's one thing after another for

Zilch spoke and I was getting

Several tricks may be performed
with a glass of water. Certain OF
them can be carried out by a sci
ence teacher. Others can be done
/ by almost anyone.
| If a science teacher has a sup
ply of liquid air, he can fasten a
string to a key, and let the key drop
into the liquid air. Then, after the
key becomes very cold, he pulls it
out by the string and drops it in a
glass partly filled with water. II
this is performed in the right way,
the key will freeze on the inside of
the glass, and the glass can be dan
gled from the string.
We can perform other stunts with
glass of water. I suggest that if
you try them, you use the right
place! There are chances Of fall
ure, and water may cause a bit of
damage. Perhaps you should work
over a kitchen sink, or on a table
outdoors.
Fill glass with water, and cover
the top with a square of thin card
board. Hold the cardboard firmly
while you turn the glass upside
down. Then you should be able to
let go of the cardboard and prove
that it will stay in place by itself.
Next set the glass on a fat sur

At this point you may slip the
