For Secrecy Despite
Action by City Heads

HSssVu w SuI ttVUVS
District welfare officials today
were standing pat on their ad-
vocacy Of continued secrecy of
public relief rolls, notwithstand-
ing disclosure that the Commits
sioners' proposed amendment to
the pending relief bin sets up
safeguards against indiscriminate
public use of the rolls.
The Board of Public Welfare
has always adhered to the. policy
of keeping relief records from
public view. In recent weeks, since
the issue has been raised, it has
reiterated this policy.
Asked about the boards posi-
ton in the light of the Commits
sioners' two-to-one vote on the
amendment, Board Chairman
Edgar Morris declared:
when we vote on a matter we
stick to it."
To Discuss Amendment.
Mr.. Morris added that the
board will certainly" discuss
the amendment at its next regular
meeting, at 1880 pm. February
20 in the Municipal Center.
He explained that board mem
berS, in the interim. expect to
study the newest proposal, copies
Of which they have not yet seen.
Meanwhile, he and other vel
fare officials expect to testify
before the Senate District welfare
subcommittee holding hearings on
the proposed public assistance bill
at 2 pm. tomorrow, Mr.. Morris
said.
This bill, introduced last month
by Senator Pastore, Democrat, of
Rhode Island, has the indorse-
ment Of the welfare board, so
long as it retains the secrecy
clause. The measure, in fact, in
corporates all the reconnmenda-
tions of the board, which seeks
chiefly a single public assistance
law to replace three existing laws
and to standardize procedures for
administering relief here.
Limited Disclosure.
The amendment approved yes
terday by Commissioner John
Russell Young and Brig. Gen.
Bernard L. Robinson, Engineer
Commissioner. would leave the
Pastore bill intact. except for sub
stitution of the proviso for dis
closure Of limited relief data to
properly qualified individuals.
The rider would leave to the
discretion of the welfare board
the drafting Of specific regula-
tions governing the custody, use
and preservation" of public well
fare records. These regulations
would be subject to approval by
the District Commissioners.
The rules, under the amend
ment, also would prescribe the
conditions under which the pub
lie may have access" to the
names. addresses, amounts and
dates on which relief payments
are paid. and the category of pub
lie assistance. II.
In another subsection. the
amendment states that relief in
formation shall not be used or per-
mitted to be used by any one forI
political or commercial purposes
This is in specific conformaliee
with the Jenf1er Amendments ? to
the 1851 Revenue Act. which per-
mits States to open their relief
files to the public without jeopar-
dizing their claims to Federal re-
lief funds.
Prescribes Penalties.
The amendment provides for a
maximum penalty of a $500 fine
and six months Imprisonment for

SOVIET SUBMARINES

Secretary of the Navy Dan A. Kmball recently re-
veaied that the Russians possess 800 submarines or
about four times many the Nazis had at the begin
ming OF World War H. The Secretary also noted that the
Nays job would be primarily to neuralize the Russian
submarines in the event of war.
While the Germans reached a stage of production
through which they operating more than 800 SUBJ
marines later in the war; it that they had less than
lO0 operaona at the beginning of the war in September
1889 However, the Germans had far better and more
practical operatona bases for their submarines than the
Russians today 1t is also thought that the Germans
exceled in training and tactical technoues
Assuming that Soviet submarines are at least equal
or improved, compared with the German submarine of
World War H. and that the crews are perhaps not quite
as efficient the Uboat were the fact that the
Russians already have 800 submarines operational is
serious threat to democratic supremacy of the seas Some
military experts think Russia would attempt to deliver
atomic bombs u S. cities through the use of subma-
rnes which could fire atomic shells from the surface of
the sea. only few miles from major targets
Is also interesting to note that if the United States
were to become embroied in war with Russia she
would face submarine threat not only in the Atlantic
but in the waters of the Far elsewhere Anyone
who remembers the slaughter which took place off the
Atlantic Coast during the first years of World War II
will recognize the seriousness of the Soviet submarine

Horse Mountain. Whether it is Fl
nally won or lost 1t is a kind of
Alamo to the new Republic of Ko-

Psychologically, Pvt. Kim for
centuries has felt inferior to Pvt.
Chang Of China. He has always
been ''the little brother" in an
Oriental sphere bossed by ''the big
brother" Pvt. Chang.
But Pvt. Kim now has proved to
himself and doubtful world on
j White Horse peak that man for
man he is e7:;al to or better than
Pvt. Chang-that David still can

won't forget II.
The truth is, of course, that Pvt.
Kim, whenever be has been prop

given enough weapons, has been

stubborn as two Trishmen and
mule, he can walk a Chinese bow
legged, and pad along for hours
toting a burden that would flatten

The trouble with the ROKs was
that their 100, ,000-man force at the
outbreak Of the war was paved and
mangled by the sprearhead Of
North Korean army that attacked
with 10000 men and 800 Russian
tanks.
South Korea acted with a mag.
nificence that mas received small
recognition. Farm boys were taken
out of their rice paddles and thrown
into the front lines eight days later.
Some clutched strange rifles they
had fired only once in their brief
training because of the scarcity of
bullets. Others marched into battle
empty-handec and were told to
pick up a weapon from the first
man to fall.
Often they had to forage off the
countryside. There often was no
morphine for the badly wounded.
Comrades held them as q surgeon
operated.
II Is a combat miracle the RoKs
were able to hold on their front as
well as they did for many months
of emergency. Yet all the time they
had more men in action than any
other member of the United Ma
tons, including the United States.
At the same time, guided by
American officers. they forged and
trained a new army Of several
hundred thousand men equipped
with American arms.

NEW YORK R-The world will
no longer beat a path to the door
of the man who makes a better
mouSetrap.
The world is too busy. The man
who wants to peddle better
mousetrap now has to give it an
alluring shape, an attractive color,
catchy name. He has to make it
so irresistible that a housewife, on
seeing it, says to herself:
TRAP OR DIE. My life won't be
complete without it."
For in this supermarket era In
which clerks act merely as change
makers product has to be its own
silent salesman--it has to sell it,
self to the customer by the way it
feels or the eye appeal of its
package.
This has given rise to q little
known but highly important figure
in modern sales engineering--the
industrial designer. One Of the most
successful is young Army veteran
who supervised the modification Of
the B-29 airplane that dropped the
atom bomb on Hiroshima.
AT 80 Gerald Stahl is head of
one of the nations top industrial
designing firms, and all but two
women on his staff of Is are war

ing as a specialized profession is
only about so years old. But al
ready it is turning from an art into
science.
I'VE are trained now not only
to think in terms of styling, but
how a product should look and feel,
how it can be made more cheaply
and how it can steadily be inn
proved, That requires a knowledge
of psychology, color dynamics,
market research and sales promo
ton techniques.
This fight for the housewives dol
lar has become so competitive,
Stahl said, that there isn't ma
jor manufacturing firm today that
doesn't use an industrial designer
either on its staff or on retainer
basis.
"There has been real revolu-
ion in this respect in the last quar-
ter century"
A housewife shopping in super
market usually doesn't know why
she selects one package of rice
from a shelf containing a half
dozen BRANDS. The reason is usually
subconscious, and ii is up to the
industrial designer to know her own
mind better than she does herself.
"A large percentage of sales
now are impulse sales" Stahl said.
"The product that catches their
eye is the one they buy. The pack |
age that is the greatest attention
getter is the one she puts in her
market basket"
Red, orange, and yellow have
been found to be the best eye

are associated with death.
