TECHNICAL civilization is mans conquest of space.
It is triumph frequently achieved by sacrificing
essential ingredient of existence, namely, time In
technical civilization, we extend time to gain space.
To enhance our power in the world of space is our
main objective. Yet to have does not to be
more. The power we attain in the world of space
terminates abruptly at the borderlne of time But
time is the heart of existence.
To gain control of the world of space is certainly
one Of our tasks. The danger begins when in gaining
power in the realm of space forfeit all aspirations
in the realm of time. There is realm of time where
the goal is not to have but to be- not to but to
give not to control but to share not to Subdue but
to be in accord Life goes wrong when the control of
space the acquisition of things of space, becomes
sole concern.
The meaning of the Sabbath is to celebrate time
rather than space. Six days week live under the
tyranny of things of Space the Sabbath try to
become attuned to holiness in time. It is a day on
which we are called upon to share in what is eternal
in time to turn from the results of creation to the
mystery of creaton from the world of creation to the
creation of the world
He who wants to enter the holiness of the day
must first lay down the profanity of Gathering
merce of being yoked to toll He must go away from
the screech of dissonant days. from the
and fury of acquisitiveness and the betrayal in
bezzling his own life. He must say farewell to
ual work and learn to understand that the world has
already been created and will survive without the
help of man. Six days week we wrestle with the
world wringng profit from the earth; the Sabbath

Russia Has No Atomic Bombs,
Enqineers' President Declares

Mr.. Proctor is president of the
American Society of Civil En-
gineers. one of 81 engineering
societies celebrating a centennial
of engineering opening here to-
day.
He gave his views on Russia
during an, interview telling of
United States engineers vast ac-
compliShments in the last 100
years.
(The White House has an
nounced three atomic explosions
in Russia, referring to the
second one as another atomic
bomb" without amplifying fur
ther. Other sources have esti-
mated Russia has a stockpile
of 100 or many more A-bombs
by now.)
Mr.. Proctor declares it takes
teamwork and cooperation to
make an A-bomb work, and that
Russians don't trust each other.
Cooperation Is Impossible.
Such cooperation. he said, sis
essentially impossible in Russia
lor any other totalitarian state.
There is no possibility of one man
trusting another and integrating
his efforts with any other man.
There Is no reward for CO.
operation. The only reward Is for
exposing some one, even in your
own family. Any combination of
Ieffort comes under suspicion as a
combination against the dictator
lship." 81
In 1880, Mr.. Proctor worked on
building Rusia's second largest
dam, at Svirstroy east of Of Lenin-
grad. In World War II he was an
Army engineer, o colonel. build
ing the Persian Corridor road
from the Indian Ocean to funnel
supplies to Russia.
THE Russians have no conf
dence in their own engineers" he
said. "and I have never met a
Russian engineer who was a Com
munist who was any good.
Soviet jet planes are good. shut
the Russians got the practical end
|of how to build them from Ger
mans whom they took over"
'The Russians have brilliant
physicists and mathematicians,
brilliant purely In theory. In jet
propulsion, they are probably
ahead of US in theory. But theory
Ialone doesn't produce an A-bomb
or an army, or morale.
We've been bluffed and fooled
into thinking the Russians have
produced more than they have"
Mr.. Proctor said: 1--WE been in

And the greatest hatred of dicta-
torship and communism is among
the Russian people themselves"
Changed Americas Face.
Engineers, he said, have changed
the face Of America in a century,
and touched every phase of life,
and engineering is partly respon-
sible for Americas huge produc-
tivity.
Engineers are one essential in
the partnership of management,
risk capital and skilled labor" Mr..
Proctor said. "None can stand
alone. All depends upon co-opera-
ton and mutual trust. We have
that, Russia does not"

CHICAGO, July 24.-The Dem

Living Costs Soar
To AN-Time Record;
Food Leads Increase
Official Index Hits 1896
As Groceries, Rent, Fuel
Continue Upward March
By jones (. Roper

The Labor Department an
nounced today that the cost of
living hit an all-time high on
June Is.
The Governments cost-of- Living
index on that day reached 1895.
The previous record high was
1891 on January Is. The index
is based on prices of 1935-1939
equalling 100.
The index on May IS stood at
189. The rise of six-tenths of an
index point in the following
month was blamed ON higher
prices for food, rent, fuel and elec-
tricity, and miscellaneous goods
and services. Prices on house
furnishings and apparel declined
Slightly.
About 10000 wage earners may
get a pay increase as a result of
the new index. These workers
have contracts which tie their
wages to the index, which is based
on retail prices of goods and serv-
ices which moderate income
urban families pay.
Overall, these prices now are II a
per cent higher than before the
Korean war began and "a per
cent higher than a year ago.
Food Leads Rise.
A three-tenths of l per cent rise
in food prices during the latest
month sent the food index to
231.5, a shade under the January
figure. Food items showing the
sharpest price increases during the
month were pork, chickens and
eggs. Price tags on canned and
fresh produce declined.
Apparel prices decreased for
the ninth consecutive month and
were i per cent lower on the av-
|erage in June than in May" the
Labor Department said.
Price decreases were reported
for mems, women's, boys and
girls shoes in most cities. Lower
lprices were also reported for boys
sport shirts, girls cotton dresses
and diapers.
Housefurnishings Down.
"The housefurnishings index de-
lclined for the seventh consecutive
months per cent between May
and June. Lower prices were re-
lported for refrigerators. wool rugs
and sheets"
Gas and electricity rates showed
a Jump of two-tenths of per cent
during the month, but increases in
the cost of miscellaneous goods
and services hurt more.
The Labor Department reported
rises in physicians fees. hospital
rates. movie admissions, laundry
service and Streetcar fares. Lower
prices were charged for television
sets and soap.
Residential rents climbed two
tenths of a percentage point dur
ling the month.
| The figures were based on data
from 18 cities. not including the
District.

early ballot was in full swing. AT
the same time frantic efforts were
under way to form a coalition to
halt the Stevenson bandwagon.
There were many reports that
Vice President Barkley, because
of the great reception he received
from the convention last night
would receive a considerable vote
when the balloting begins. Gov

a 24-inch valve broke at 7:15 pm
at a junction of three large mains
at Second street and Florida ave-

This widespread area was af-
fected:
Northwest-from Fourth street
to about Twenty-second street or
the west; from l. street north tc
Florida avenue, and a section OF
Georgetown.
Northeast-from the Capitol to
Nineteenth street and from about
E street Sc. to about F street NE
Also the Trinidad area between

and New York avenue NE.
Repairs Nearly Completed.
Repairs were nearly completed
this morning. but it was expected
to take a few hours to refill the
depleted mains and bring pres
sures back up to normal.
Meanwhile, a diversion of about
10 million gallons of water from
the Pentagon to reinforce the sup
plies in the city caused a water
shut off or reduced the flow to q
trickle in that building.
The Pentagon uses an average
of about 21s million gallons Of
water a day, but that figure might
be doubled on an excessively hot
day. Officials said it is served or
a special water line independent
of that which supplies adjoining
Arlington County.
The air conditioning still was
functioning.
Water Division Supt. Davic
Auld said the same general area
of the city affected when a mair
broke on Canal road June Is was
involved in last nights failure
He said the latest break actually
was not as serious in it's effects
as that of June Is, although po-
tentially it was more dangerous
Cites Reasons for Danger.
He gave two reasons: The high
consumption fostered by the pro-
tracted heat spell and the fact
that last nights failure was in a
more critical spot in the system.
Mr.. Auld issued an emergency
warning to residents asking them
to conserve water as much as
possible.
He said that from 56 to SO mil
lion gallons Of water were being
put through the lines, which is
about the average amount. Con-
sumption yesterday, however,
reached 96 million gallons.
Mr.. Auld said it was not certain
what caused the failure, but that
workmen had been repairing the
system in the afternoon and some
one inadvertently struck the pipe
with a pneumatic hammer. An
ensuing leak was repaired immedi-
ately. Later. however, the bottom
came off the valve.
Meanwhile, a 16-inch water
main on Colesville road, east Of
Burnt Mills, Md. was broken this
morning. apparently by dyna-
mite charge set off in the vicinity
to excavate for a sewer line.
Harry Shaw, chief engineer for
the Washington Suburban Sani-|
tary Commission, said the damage
was slight and will be repaired
within four or five hours.
